Chapter 460

Now they have arrived here.

Sent by the current king of the Chuyun Empire with full authority to search for the Princess.

Their mission was simply to bring the Princess back.

They had already ventured quite far into the desert.

A trace of unease stirred in their hearts as well.

Just at this moment!

A beast-tamer shouted out.

They saw the corpse of a sandworm over twenty meters long.

Yellow Sand Sandworm.

A relatively ferocious creature within the desert. "Go down and take a look!" Thus!

They rode their phantom beasts.

After confirming there was no danger around them.

They only then descended beside the corpse of that Yellow Sand Sandworm.

"These are injuries caused by the Princess's Blue Flame Firebird's flame attack!" Quickly!

The leading beast-tamer Hua Baiqi said with a solemn expression. Blue Flame Firebird.

It can spew forth blue-colored flames. Unlike ordinary flame attacks, this flame can inflict greater damage.

Blue-colored marks would appear on the burned corpses.

Therefore, Hua Baiqi recognized this as the phantom beast of the Chuyun Princess. "Good, let's keep advancing in this direction!" "However, we absolutely must not go too deep!"

"If necessary, we may have to abandon this mission!" Hua Baiqi gazed toward the depths of the desert ahead.

A deep dread filled his eyes.

Even he, a beast-tamer who possessed five Diamond Tier 7 phantom beasts of king-level bloodline.

Also held great fear of this great desert.

It was said that deep within this desert lived a powerful creature that could easily destroy the existence of an empire.

"Abandon the mission?"

"But what about the Princess—!"

A beast-tamer, upon hearing Hua Baiqi's words.

Said with some hesitation.

"There's no choice, I know what you mean!"

"If we go too deep, we may all lose our lives!" "And the Princess, I'm afraid, would have already lost her life by then!" "We cannot throw our own lives away as well!" Hua Baiqi said solemnly.

Once these words were spoken!

Immediately, the crowd fell into silence.

That's right!

Even them, these people, entering the depths.

Would be unable to withstand the encirclement of those Yellow Sand phantom beasts.

Let alone the Princess, all alone! "Move out!" Then!

They continued advancing toward the direction where the corpses had appeared.

Along the way!

At intervals.

They could see the corpses of one or two phantom beasts.

Those were all Yellow Sand phantom beasts burned to death by the Blue Flame Firebird.

"Lord Hua!"

"Look quickly, that's—!"

"So many phantom beast corpses!" Finally!

Following the trail where other Yellow Sand phantom beasts had been slain.

They arrived at an area.

Within this area!

A scene of utter devastation!

The corpses of several hundred Yellow Sand phantom beasts were scattered throughout.

It looked extremely shocking.

Most terrifying of all!

Those phantom beasts were all terrifying Yellow Sand phantom beasts that had reached Diamond rank!

And at this moment!

A graceful, slender figure.

Was standing dumbly in the center of that group of corpses.

Staring blankly into the distance.

"It's the Chuyun Princess!"

"And her phantom beast, the Blue Flame Firebird!"

From the clothing of that graceful figure, and the phantom beast guarding beside her.

The Blue Flame Firebird emanating blue flames, they recognized her—that was their target, the Chuyun Princess.

"Princess!"

They saw Princess Chuyun!

Hua Baiqi brought the other beast tamers.

And rushed over at once.

"Princess, are you alright?"

Looking at the phantom beasts all around!

Hua Baiqi and the others could not help but draw in a sharp breath.

"Hiss!"

Every one of those phantom beasts was Diamond-rank. Even together, they could only handle three or five at a time.

But!

There were over five hundred Diamond-rank phantom beasts here!

Yet all of these Diamond phantom beasts were lying here.

What was more!

There were no signs of any fighting here.

Only traces left everywhere by lightning strikes.

And moistened earth.

Such a terrifying sight!

Even if three thousand beast-tamer troops came,

they might not necessarily be able to do this!

This was simply a scene like hell! "What on earth happened here!" Seeing the princess was safe,

and such a terrifying sight had occurred here,

they immediately asked Princess Chuyun, Mu Yusang.

Hearing their words,

Mu Yusang did not turn her head. She only spoke in a daze.

"Just now, a passing deity! Saved me!" "What!"

Hearing Princess Chuyun Mu Yusang's words,

Hua Baiqi and the others immediately exchanged bewildered glances. "A passing deity?" They looked at Princess Chuyun!

They saw the princess, Mu Yusang, with a fervent gaze,

an expression of devotion,

looking in one direction—

the direction of the depths of the desert!
