The demonic beasts attacking Fan City suddenly calmed, their controlling force apparently hindered. The City Lord led the Personal Guard Squad to investigate the Cloud-Touching Forest, tasking an elder with handling beast corpses and city defenses amid exhausted beastmen. At the forest entrance, Jing Wentian pressed his reluctant group to enter despite the stench of corpses, drawn by rumors of the beast manipulator and the White Lion City's Young City Lord.

Hearing their words, Jing Wentian shot them a fierce glare.

Everyone knew Cloud-Touching Forest was perilous—how could he be unaware? The cities nearby must have grasped this harsh reality by now, correct?

Yet, reflecting on the City Lords of those cities who ignored Fan City's plight, a wave of emotion surged within him. Apparently, only White Lion City dispatched their Young City Lord for aid, right?

Ah, how ruthless the human heart truly is. They can watch their usual companions plunge into crisis and simply look the other way.

"You don’t want to go in?" he asked.

"Uh."

With just a glance from their big brother, who among them dared to speak up?

"Go, go, go! We'll follow wherever Big Brother leads. Cloud-Touching Forest is nothing—even treacherous mountains or blazing infernos won't stop us."

All these men had been yanked back from death's door by Jing Wentian; they owed their lives to this big brother. Entering Cloud-Touching Forest? What issue could there be?

"But Big Brother, how are we supposed to enter? This stench is unbearable."

They voiced their concerns aloud; in this state, not even dogs would venture into Cloud-Touching Forest. The odor could choke demonic beasts for eight hundred li around!

"Simple enough."

Jing Wentian pulled a garment from his storage bag and ripped it with a sharp rip.

A basic cloth strip emerged, which he promptly wrapped around his face to shield his mouth and nose—far better than collapsing from the foul reek.

His followers naturally copied him, though they used scraps from their big brother's cloth instead of their own garments.

Make do with what they had; why squander a whole piece of clothing per person?

"Let’s go—head into the forest."

Meanwhile, guided by Bai Yan, Qian Jiyun and his companions had already crossed multiple lakes.

In the immense expanse of Cloud-Touching Forest, locating the Evil Dragon right away was out of the question, yet they secretly placed a Paper Person at every spot.

Though the Evil Dragon refrained from further action, it kept monitoring Qian Jiyun's group relentlessly.

Watching them scour lake after lake filled it with fury, making the water tremble as it snarled, "Despicable humans, they’re truly hunting for me!"

At first, it had merely suspected they’d stumbled into Cloud-Touching Forest by chance and would depart after a quick look.

However, their methodical lake-by-lake search revealed a different intent.

These intruders likely recognized its true nature, targeting the lakes because they knew the Demon Beast Tide stemmed entirely from it—the Evil Dragon.

"Where in the world did these three humans originate?"

Legends of the Evil Dragon echoed in the Beast Domain, but no one dreamed one still lurked here.

Still, these three humans knew of it. If they hailed from other planes, that seemed improbable—who from any plane would grasp the Evil Dragon’s existence, its affinity for water, and its inability to stray far from it?

"Damn pests, since you court death, I’ll grant it—vanish from this world forever!"

Fierce curses erupted from its maw, yet deep down, unease gnawed at it.

For it couldn’t detect the cultivation levels of two among the three humans; in an actual clash, victory wasn’t guaranteed.
