"The Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia!"
Upon seeing Ao Yuan, the complexions of the three turned pale.
As powerhouses on Blue Star, not a single one of them was unaware of Ao Yuan's might!
Nor had any of them ever harbored any doubts about it.
After all!
Ao Yuan had proven to everyone just how formidable his strength was along his journey!
And they had never expected to encounter Ao Yuan here!
"Lord Dragon God, please save us!"
"Lord Dragon God, we are willing to pledge our allegiance to you!"
In stark contrast to the three were the numerous demonic beasts and black rhinos.
They all knelt down to Ao Yuan, revealing expressions of relief at having survived.
With Ao Yuan present,
They knew they would undoubtedly be safe.
If Ao Yuan hadn't intended to save them, he wouldn't have even shown his face.
"The Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia!"
"This is actually a misunderstanding."
One of the three wore a smile that was more contorted than a cry.
"Yes, a beautiful misunderstanding!"
"Since you are here, we shall take our leave now and not disturb you."
The other two also quickly chimed in upon hearing this.
They had the power to kill the black rhinos.
But this time, they were facing Ao Yuan.
Let alone the three of them.
Even if there were a hundred more!
They probably couldn't defeat Ao Yuan!
No!
Forget defeating him, they might not even be able to make Ao Yuan lift an eyelid.
After speaking, without waiting for Ao Yuan's reply,
The three of them immediately reined in their imposing demeanor and cautiously retreated in the opposite direction of Ao Yuan.
With Ao Yuan present, they wisely abandoned the black rhinos.
The remaining demonic beasts and black rhinos, seeing the three attempt to leave, opened their mouths wide, displaying fierce expressions.
However, upon noticing Ao Yuan beside them, they all fell silent.
Ultimately, they were not Ao Yuan's subordinates.
It was already quite remarkable that Ao Yuan had appeared to scare off these individuals and protect their safety.
They had no right to demand that Ao Yuan seek revenge for them!
However, their eyes were fixed on the three who were trying to escape.
If looks could kill, these individuals would have died countless times over by now.
"Trying to leave now?"
"Do you think there's such a good thing in this world!"
A voice suddenly emerged.
The voice was very calm, as if discussing a trivial matter, but it sent a chill down the spines of the three who were about to leave.
They felt a cold current surge from the soles of their feet to the crown of their heads.
"Your Excellency, the Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia."
"This is an internal matter of our nation and has nothing to do with Great Xia!"
"We have not bullied any of Great Xia's demonic beasts!"
"We were merely acting under the orders of our nation!"
"If you pretend not to see us, we will also pretend not to see you."
The three turned around with difficulty, adopting a submissive tone,
Ao Yuan, however, let out a cold chuckle. Their words were a show of submission, but they were actually trying to imply that several nations stood behind them.
If Ao Yuan didn't let them go, he would be making enemies of these nations!
"Heh..."
In response, Ao Yuan let out a cold laugh.
Then, he said sternly, "I am a demonic beast!"
His words were few, only a simple phrase.
But they carried a palpable killing intent.
The next moment!
Before they could reply,
Ao Yuan suddenly raised his claw and then gently brought it down.
It seemed as if he had done nothing, yet a sharp golden light surged towards the three.
The three had no chance to react.
With a 'swish',
A look of profound fear stained their eyes.
"You..."
The three wanted to say something, but no words came out.
*Clack.*
A crisp sound echoed.
The three grunted and fell to the ground.
However,
Perhaps Ao Yuan had not aimed for their vital points,
So the three did not die after falling to the ground.
Instead, sharp wounds appeared on their bodies.
Blood gushed out from the wounds like a fountain.
A deep sense of dread was evident on the faces of all three.
However, gradually, they calmed down.
They were humans,
And they knew about the principle of reciprocity.
Especially for a powerhouse like Ao Yuan, if he had truly intended to kill them,
The three of them would have been long dead.
They wouldn't still be alive.
The remaining demonic beasts and black rhinos were silent upon seeing this, as if they too understood Ao Yuan's actions.
After all,
These individuals were backed by various nations. How could Ao Yuan, despite his strength, antagonize several nations for a few unrelated demonic beasts?
Anyone would understand that this was an extremely unfavorable transaction.
"Your Excellency, the Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia."
"You have injured us, and we will not pursue this matter further."
"Let this be a clean slate!"
After a long moment, the three helped each other up, took a deep breath, and slowly spoke.
With that, they stopped talking and turned around, leaving at a slow pace.
At this point, all three couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
With things having reached this stage, they couldn't say much more.
However, to escape from Ao Yuan's hands with only minor injuries was a fortunate thing.
After all, Ao Yuan's actions were there for all to see.
Provoking him was not something that could be easily resolved.
"Stop!"
However,
They hadn't taken a few steps before a discordant voice suddenly rang out again.
The voice belonged to Ao Yuan.
Upon hearing this, the bodies of the three stiffened again.
Then, the three turned around, forcing a smile, and asked, "Your Excellency, the Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia, do you have any other matters?"
The other two remained silent, simply watching Ao Yuan.
In truth, they had considered fleeing.
But even Bruh Gula and his party had been unable to escape from Ao Yuan's grasp.
For them to flee? Wouldn't that be seeking death?
"Who allowed you to leave?"
Ao Yuan asked coldly.
"Your Excellency, the Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia, we were in the wrong."
"But we have already accepted our punishment, and you still..."
One of the three, suppressing his anger, questioned.
However, before he could finish, he was interrupted.
Another person beside him stopped him and forced a smile, saying, "Your Excellency, the Guardian Divine Beast of Great Xia, it is true that we were in the wrong."
"I apologize to you."
"I'm sorry!"
After speaking, he tugged at the other two, signaling them to follow his lead.
Even though he didn't feel he was wrong, the circumstances were beyond their control.
"I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry!"
The other two were silent for a moment, but ultimately, they apologized reluctantly.
After apologizing, the three once again attempted to leave.
This time, they walked a few steps, and Ao Yuan did not stop them.
Just as they thought the matter was over,
Ao Yuan suddenly said coldly, "Black rhinos, were they?"
"These three killed your people, your brethren."
"And you wish to let them go just like that?"
