"That Hei Yun … Oh, no, it's the Son of Saint. Why did the Son of Saint bring me here?"
After listening to the three old men's narration, Wang Yan felt suspicious.
Ever since he brought Hei Yun out of the Misty Forest, as it grew, Wang Yan discovered all sorts of extraordinary abilities.
For example, it could swallow the Star Guiding Stone like it was food and crazily devour it.
Every time it finished eating, it would fall into a deep sleep for a period of time. When it woke up, its size and aura were many times stronger than before.
After a few times, Wang Yan understood that this was Hei Yun's cultivation method. It kept breaking through by swallowing the Star Guiding Stone.
This kind of cultivation method that defied common sense made Wang Yan think Hei Yun was a beast of extremely high quality. However, he never thought Hei Yun was a descendant of a divine beast.
Once it matured and awakened its bloodline ability, it would be a terrifying existence!
Facing Wang Yan's question, the elder's expression suddenly dimmed. His wrinkled face revealed a hint of death.
His originally stooped body looked even older at this moment, as if he had aged a dozen years in an instant.
Suddenly, he sighed faintly. "Before we talk, please allow us to introduce ourselves.
"I was originally a Nether Silverback Snake that reached the level of a Core Beast. With the guidance of that senior, I was lucky enough to shed my beast form and transform into a human form. My name is Silver Serpent.
"The one on the left is my second brother. His original form is a Sky Roaring Golden Lion that reached the level of a Core Beast. His name is Mad Lion.
"The one on the right is my third brother. His original form is a Blood-Eyed Moon Chasing Wolf that reached the level of a Core Beast. His name is Greedy Wolf.
As soon as he finished speaking, an incomparably respectful expression appeared on Silver Flood Dragon's aged face. "Originally, it was impossible for us three brothers to cast off our beast bodies and transform into human forms within a thousand years. However, thanks to the guidance of that venerable senior, we now possess human bodies."
"Thus, the three of us secretly swore to protect the Son of Saint until he hatched no matter what. Even if it meant our deaths."
Wang Yan couldn't help but be moved. Compared to humans, the beast race was definitely a loyal and righteous race.
Just for a promise, he guarded it for a thousand years.
"The three of us did it. The Holy Son successfully broke out of the shell, but at that time, the Setting Sun Mountain Range and the dense forests and mountains were in a shocking change."
"The Saint seemed to have sensed something and broke out of his shell in advance, causing the entire Misty Forest to be in chaos."
"It was at that time that you met the Holy Son and took him away. It has been many years since then."
At this point, the silver wyrm stared at the black cloud with a burning gaze. Its expression was extremely devout, as if it was the most faithful believer.
Mad Lion continued the conversation, looking at Wang Yan, "I didn't expect that in just a few years, Your Excellency would grow to such an astonishing degree. It really makes me feel ashamed."
Tan Lang smiled bitterly. "Originally, the three of us were planning to go look for the Holy Son in a few days. I didn't expect the Holy Son to bring you back to this place today."
With that, his turbid eyes revealed an extremely fanatical look of worship. "It seems like the Holy Son has not forgotten about us. This is truly worthy of celebration."
After listening to the three of them, Wang Yan became even more confused.
Everyone knew that two supreme daemons that had existed since ancient times resided in the Setting Sun Mountain Range and the dense forests. They possessed unfathomable strength and were extremely terrifying.
However, what was the relationship between the two daemons and the black cloud?
Were they protectors like the silver wyrm, mad lion, and Tan Lang?
If that was the case, why did they suddenly find the three of them a thousand years ago and hand over the black cloud that had yet to break out of its shell to them?
Could it be that a thousand years ago, these two Great Demons had foreseen that they would encounter a great calamity a thousand years later, so they found a guardian in advance?
Thinking up to there, Wang Yan raised an eyebrow. "Where are the two daemons now?"
The moment these words were spoken, the expressions of Yin Jiao and the other two immediately became extremely secretive. All of them shook their heads without saying a word.
Wang Yan was stunned. He subconsciously thought of the Skyroad sect.
It could make the two terrifying daemons that had existed since ancient times in the Setting Sun Mountain Range and the dense forests vanish instantly.
Probably only the Skyroad sect could do something like that across the entire Starsource Continent!
"Don't tell me …"
Wang Yan extended a finger and pointed at the sky.
The expressions of the three immediately changed drastically, but they all nodded quickly at the same time.
"Existences like that aren't particularly terrifying to you, sir, but it's like the laws of the world to us. We can't talk about it!"
Most of Wang Yan's doubts gradually disappeared as he looked at the three of them with bitter smiles.
It seemed like the two daemons of the Setting Sun Mountain Range and the dense forests had indeed been taken away by the Skyroad sect.
However, why the Skyroad sect had taken away the two daemons remained a mystery. No one knew.
A sliver of doubt flashed through Wang Yan's eyes when he thought up to there. "Do you know why the daemons have been wreaking havoc on the Starsource Continent recently and wreaking havoc?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Yin Jiao and the other two immediately became strange.
After a while, the three of them looked at the black cloud in unison.
"It's all because of the Chosen Saint, as well as the two seniors."
Wang Yan's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He subconsciously blurted out, "Do you want to use this method to shake up the Skyroad sect?"
The three of them all nodded. They became extremely determined.
Wang Yan immediately smiled, but it was a very helpless smile.
Across the entire Starsource Continent, probably only the two daemons of the Setting Sun Mountain Range and the Dense Forests Mountains could shake up the Skyroad sect.
Aside from that, even if all the magical beasts worked together to wreak havoc, they would not be able to raise the Skyroad sect's attention.
Although they would not be able to wreak havoc completely, they would be suppressed by the various organisations and the dynasties that ruled over the five planes.
Due to the destruction of the Jinling Dynasty and the forceful rise of the Heaven's gate on the Eastern Continent, there were no daemons wreaking havoc.
However, due to the destruction of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Western Continent was leaderless, so the daemons wreaking havoc were especially severe.
However, after the Kingdom of Chaos established by Xue Wuhen, he had suppressed the daemons forcefully through ruthless methods, putting an end to the daemons long ago.
Although he had never been to the other three planes, Wang Yan could imagine that the situation would be roughly the same.
This was because without any supreme experts, even if all the magical beasts on the Starsource Continent gathered together, they would only be a motley crew in the eyes of peak organisations.
Thinking up to there, Wang Yan suddenly came up with an idea. Now that he and the magical beasts shared a common enemy, why not work together to fend off the Skyroad sect?
As a result, he smiled gently. "How many powerful magical beasts are there on the Starsource Continent right now?"
The silver serpent was taken aback. "Sir, what do you mean?"
"You want to save the two daemons, but your organisations are far too weak. They're not even worth mentioning before the Skyroad sect."
"Before you can even raise the Skyroad sect's attention, you'll be wiped out by the five planes. My enemy is also the Skyroad sect, so why don't we work together and fend them off together?"
