“Leader,wewilltakecareofthisCloud-PiercingWolfEagle!”

TwoYuanSpiritRealmcultivatorswenttoblocktheCloud-PiercingWolfEagle,theremainingmenofthemercenarygroupslockedontothegroupofyoungmenandladies.

"Measlythieves!"TheyouthsfromSacredMountainallhadcoldlooksintheireyes.Auraflowedaroundtheirbody,weaponsweredrawn.Thoughtheymaybeyoung,theyweredefinitelynotsomethingthesemercenariescouldmatchupto.
