"Since this is an Alliance mission, we naturally obey the arrangements."
Wood Spirit said indifferently.
Perfected Xie, then consciously looked at Xiao Mu.
Shi Weiyuan, Xie Wei, and the other Beast Race members also looked at Xiao Mu, a hint of ill-intent in their eyes.
They were hoping Xiao Mu would refuse, so they'd have a justifiable reason to kill him.
Stone Soul and Wood Spirit were looking tense, fearful that Xiao Mu might misspeak. They constantly signaled at him with their eyes.
They were obviously overthinking it. Xiao Mu wasn't foolish enough to deliberately go against the Alliance's rules.
He said lightly, "Since it's a fixed mission of the Alliance, I, of course, will obey."
"Hmph!"
Perfected Xie snorted lightly, moving his gaze away. His disappointment was unavoidable.
Shi Weiyuan, Xie Wei, and other members of the Beast Race also showed their disappointment. Just like Perfected Xie, they hoped Xiao Mu would refuse. Yet, Xiao Mu didn't do as they wished.
"I hope that you all will keep your promise. Otherwise, if anyone plays tricks, don't blame me, your group leader, for being rude."
In his disappointment, Perfected Xie couldn't help but utter a threat.
Immediately he took the lead and headed towards the Grey Fog, warning, "Everyone, keep up! You must enter the Secret Realm with me within ten seconds. If the time passes, the teleportation portal will change its destination. If you get teleported elsewhere and face a demon ambush, don't blame me for forsaking the rescue."
Xiao Mu felt a chill upon hearing this.
By then, Perfected Xie had already taken the lead and stepped into the Grey Fog, disappearing from sight.
Shi Weiyuan, Xie Wei, and the other members of the Beast Race didn't dare to delay. One after another, they quickly followed Perfected Xie into the Grey Fog and swiftly vanished too.
"Mr Xiao, hurry up."
Stone Soul, following close behind, reminded Xiao Mu once again.
Wood Spirit followed next, and Xiao Mu was the last to enter.
As soon as he entered, the Grey Fog started to change. It seemed that a new wave of power began to emerge, which gave Xiao Mu a chill.
Perfected Xie obviously intended to play a trick by timing it so if Xiao Mu was a moment late, he would be transported elsewhere. Fortunately, Xiao Mu didn't delay for a heartbeat and immediately followed Wood Spirit into the Grey Fog.
The scene before him blurred, then changed abruptly.
It was a dim gray space, not connecting heaven or earth, like a Chaotic World.
In this world, no power or life force was present. Everything was in a primal state.
Perfected Xie's gaze swept over Xiao Mu. Apparently disappointed that Xiao Mu had promptly followed him in, he didn't say much.
After identifying the direction, Perfected Xie still led the way and accelerated his pace forward, saying softly, "Follow me."
Everyone kept up closely. Xiao Mu still summoned the Fire Dragon Vehicle, walking alongside Stone Soul and Wood Spirit.
The gray space suddenly changed. In the distance ahead, a ball of black light appeared, and a dangerous aura emanated from it.
Everyone unanimously halted.
Perfected Xie turned around, his cold gaze sweeping over Stone Soul, Wood Spirit, and Xiao Mu, "Ahead, there is a small demon stronghold. It looks like there are at least three demons. To avoid alarming the other demons, I, your group leader, have decided to carry out a decapitation operation."
"Stone Soul, Wood Spirit, Xiao Mu, I ask you three to lure the demons out and restrain them using your power. While they are distracted, I will lead a sneak attack from the side to kill the demons."
Xiao Mu sneered quietly to himself.
Just as Stone Soul had said, Perfected Xio was making similar arrangements as before. He used his official power for personal gain, suppressed others who were different, had non-Beast Race members restrain the demons, while he and Shi Weiyuan and other Beast Race Mutated Beings seized the opportunity to strike, killing the demons for their own benefits.
Although he despised their actions, he was quietly relieved. Thanks to Stone Soul and Wood Spirit's warnings, he had been prepared in advance.
