Chapter 282: Pursuit! Distress Signal from the Treasure Pavilion!

The slightly older beast tamer, seeing Liu Mengyun's pale face, said with concern: "Young Lady, those Flame Giant Lizards don't seem to be chasing us anymore—let's rest!"

Liu Mengyun shook her head: "No, we can't rest yet!"

"Why not?"

Liu Mengyun recalled the terrifying speed of the Golden-Rank beast tamer's Storm Eagle.

She simply couldn't bring herself to stop.

"Just now, I think I stirred up trouble!"

"You mean that beast tamer?"

"Yes, I looked closely—he's from the Emergency Unit!"

The old beast tamer asked uncertainly: "Maybe he didn't recognize us?"

"Hard to say!"

"Then perhaps we should just…"

The old beast tamer slashed his palm through the air.

They weren't unfamiliar with military personnel out in the wild.

Sometimes, if you clean it up neatly, no trouble follows.

Especially deep in Mount Yandang—no one would ever find out.

"Better not. He's strong—I'm not sure I can beat him!"

High above the clouds, the Storm Eagle's sharp golden eyes locked onto the beast tamers.

Just then, it heard Su Yang's call and turned away.

Near dusk, Liu Mengyun's group finally stopped.

The bonfire burned.

Several iron pots sat over the fire, their water beginning to boil.

One beast tamer lifted the lid and dumped in dried meat, air-dried vegetables, mushrooms, and wild greens gathered nearby.

Mercenaries who often slept under the open sky usually carried their own rations.

But eating dried food for long periods was unpleasant.

Roasted meat, eaten too often, grew tiresome.

When camping outdoors, they rarely hunted dangerous beasts anymore.

They feared the blood smell would attract beasts with keen senses.

Liu Mengyun held her bowl of meat broth, gently blowing on its rim.

Just then, she slowly set down the iron bowl and gazed at the pitch-black sky.

"Young Lady, what's wrong?"

"I feel uneasy—I keep thinking someone's watching us!"

"With the Storm Eagles patrolling, nothing should happen, right?"

Liu Mengyun said: "I don't know… the Storm Eagles detected nothing."

"Then it's just your imagination, Young Lady."

"I hope so!"

In the dark night sky, Su Yang rode the Storm Eagle, speeding through the wind.

A Platinum-Rank beast tamer couldn't be allowed to escape.

He'd killed one of her Platinum-Rank Azure Cloud Eagles—she must still have four other Platinum-Rank beast companions.

Add the Platinum-Rank beast tamer herself, and that's five Platinum-Rank dangerous beast experiences!

Su Yang couldn't let her get away.

Especially since they already had a grudge.

As for her being beautiful, Su Yang didn't give it a second thought.

He'd met plenty of beautiful girls.

Even stunning ones weren't unheard of…

Maybe if he showed even a little interest, those beautiful girls would throw themselves at him!

But those beautiful girls didn't have the Platinum-Rank beast tamer status.

So what good was that status?

If Su Yang liked a girl, he wouldn't care about anything else on her!

Soon, he spotted the tiny flame on the ground.

"Are they there?"

The Storm Eagle told Su Yang that her Storm Eagle was nearby too.

"Kill the Storm Eagle first!"

When fighting beast tamers, you always kill their flying companions first.

Flying companions are the greatest threat—and the fastest to flee in a pinch.

The Storm Eagle spread its sharp wings and dove straight at the patrolling Storm Eagle.

The Storm Eagle sensed the Storm Eagle's approach.

Dozens of powerful wind blades instantly slashed toward the Storm Eagle.

The Storm Eagle dodged nimbly, evading each wind blade in turn.

Then another gale surged forth.

Fierce Gale!

But as soon as this gale hit the Storm Eagle, instead of blowing it away, it made the Storm Eagle fly even faster…

Mythic talent: Son of the Storm!

In a windy environment, the Storm Eagle's combat power increases.

In the southwest, there are many high hills and ridges, but the wind is generally weak.

That very storm eagle creates a windy environment for the Storm Hawk!

The Storm Eagle swept past the Stormwind Eagle, its sharp wings instantly carving a deep, full-body wound across the Stormwind Eagle.

The Stormwind Eagle let out a piercing shriek and began frenziedly attacking the Storm Eagle.

Unfortunately, none of its wind blades could touch the Storm Eagle.

"The Stormwind Eagle is under attack!"

Liu Liu Mengyun suddenly stood up from the ground, staring toward the direction of the shrieks.

"Young Lady, what's wrong?"

"The man—the man from daytime—he's chasing us!"

All six Beast Tamer summoned their pet beasts: "Let's go kill him together!"

"The Stormwind Eagle is already critically wounded—we have no chance of winning!"

Everyone fell silent.

They all knew the Stormwind Eagle's capabilities.

Platinum-tier pet beast, with an excellent combat talent!

If a Platinum-tier pet beast can be so badly wounded, then even if we go, we'll be useless.

Liu Liu Mengyun pulled out a cannon barrel as thick as an adult's thigh and shoved it directly into the bonfire.

The flame ignited the fuse—Boom—
