"It's actually an outsider—a human brat!
How dare he come to Giant Star and provoke us! He deserves death!"
At this moment, the lead Great Strength Beast in the distance roared furiously, its voice like thunderclaps exploding across the earth. Terrifying sound waves propagated mightily, akin to a tsunami of the highest magnitude, nearly overturning the very ground.
*Boom!*
As soon as the words fell, the Great Strength Beast whipped its tail with tremendous force, smashing the ground below. The strike instantly shattered the earth and generated a massive propulsive force. In an instant, the monster's enormous frame shot toward Ye Yunfei's position like a cannonball leaving its barrel, trailing a series of after-images at an astonishing speed.
"The physical strength of this creature is absolutely at a level to contend against Heavenly Emperor experts!" Hun Lao sensed the sheer physical power emanating from the beast, inwardly shocked.
The lead Great Strength Beast possessed boundless strength and extraordinary speed. Its combat prowess was undoubtedly terrifying, and Ye Yunfei had little confidence in facing it directly.
Furthermore, over a hundred more Great Strength Beasts were following behind!
Fortunately, Ye Yunfei's speed was nothing to scoff at either. Utilizing his Spatial Teleportation Art, he instantly teleported across the desolate earth again and again, fleeing into the distance.
Hundreds of Great Strength Beasts chased relentlessly from behind, their roars continuous.
The leading beast galloped on all fours, occasionally using its tail to lash the ground for long-range propulsion. Its speed actually surpassed Ye Yunfei's by a slight margin!
*Rumble rumble…*
So many colossal Great Strength Beasts thundering across the land simultaneously created an utterly terrifying commotion. The earth shook violently, dust and debris billowed skyward, everything trembling as if being sifted through a sieve.
"Hahaha…
This brat, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, has provoked these temperamentally violent Great Strength Beasts. He’s in for a world of pain!
Having offended these beasts, he’ll have no safe haven left on this planet. He’ll be hunted down relentlessly.
If he leaves the planet, over a dozen Heavenly Emperor experts will be waiting for him outside!
This time, there's no escape for him!
All I need to do is keep a covert watch and seize the Soul-Nourishing Tree when he’s on the brink of death!"
From a distance, the Soul Emperor watched Ye Yunfei being chased by the beasts, feeling immensely gratified.
The reason he hadn’t personally dealt with Ye Yunfei after arriving on this planet was his knowledge of the true powerhouses hidden here. He feared that if he acted himself, he would attract the attention of those formidable beings, leading to grave trouble.
Thus, he had decided to conceal himself, hide nearby, observe developments calmly, and wait for the opportune moment to strike.
"What’s happening?"
At that moment, a dozen or so giants, tall as mountains, appeared from behind a distant colossal peak, gazing toward the commotion from afar. The disturbance created by hundreds of Great Strength Beasts was simply too immense!
"It’s the Great Strength Beasts!
They seem to be chasing a puny human brat!
Strange… Why would so many Great Strength Beasts pursue such a weak, small creature?
Though this human brat’s speed is impressive."
The giants far away quickly ascertained the situation and felt perplexed, their gazes assessing Ye Yunfei.
"We’ve searched for so long without finding any trace of Miss Qi E.
The messages we sent out haven’t gotten any reply from her either.
What do you think—could Miss Qi E have been captured by these Great Strength Beasts?
Come on, let’s go and ask!"
One of the giants spoke up.
"There are too many of those beasts. I’ll call for more of our clansmen to come. We’ll approach and question the Great Strength Beasts together."
Another giant said.
After speaking, this giant suddenly blew a sharp whistle.
In the next moment, dozens more giants appeared on the land in the distance, striding toward them.
Then, these giants collectively made their presence known, blocking the path ahead.
"You’ve got to be kidding me!"
Seeing dozens of sky-piercing giants suddenly materialize ahead, Ye Yunfei felt a tingling on his scalp.
Each of these giants brimmed with vigorous life force and immense strength. Their mere movements caused the surrounding space to tremble incessantly.
Now, monstrous beasts chased from behind, and giants blocked the path ahead.
Ye Yunfei couldn’t help but frown.
"No choice. Looks like I’ll have to fight a tough battle.
Or activate the Space Teleportation Token to leave this planet."
Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
Right then.
"Listen here, you filthy creatures. Our clans’ Miss Qi E went missing while hunting outside. Was it your kind who did it?!"
One giant suddenly shouted at the Great Strength Beasts chasing Ye Yunfei.
"What damned ‘Miss’? Haven’t heard of her!"
The lead Great Strength Beast pursuing Ye Yunfei let out a derisive laugh.
"Hmph!
On this planet, who besides your kind would dare provoke our Giant Clan?!
Don’t think you can deny it. Tell us—did you capture Miss Qi E?!"
The giant roared furiously.
"Which eye of yours saw that?
Now, get lost! Don’t block our hunt!"
The leading beast rolled its eyes scornfully, sneering.
"Miss Qi E?"
Hearing the conversation between the giant and the beast, Ye Yunfei’s heart stirred.
Ye Yunfei remembered—when he was surrounded by those beasts earlier, they had mentioned that today, they had captured the daughter of some important figure from the Giant Clan and were preparing to divide and devour her.
"I know Miss Qi E’s whereabouts!"
At this thought, Ye Yunfei immediately cried out loudly.
"What?
Kid, you know Miss Qi E’s whereabouts?"
Immediately, the gazes of all the giants turned toward Ye Yunfei, filled with surprise and hope.
"Speak quickly, lad! You better not lie to us!
Otherwise, I won’t let you off!"
One giant urged Ye Yunfei.
At the same time, the lead beast also looked at Ye Yunfei with a strange expression.
This beast knew perfectly well that Miss Qi E had indeed been captured by their kind and was being prepared for a feast.
Miss Qi E possessed a noble bloodline and was considered a great tonic for these Great Strength Beasts.
"Miss Qi E has been captured by members of this beast’s clan!"
Ye Yunfei pointed at the Great Strength Beasts.
"Kid, don’t you dare talk nonsense!"
The lead Great Strength Beast roared angrily.
Their clan's capture of Miss Qi E was a covert operation.
A high-ranking member within the Great Strength Beast race needed some pure, unadulterated Giant Clan bloodline essence for cultivation and breakthrough. Thus, they had secretly dispatched forces to capture the noble-blooded Miss Qi E.
Once the Giant Clan found out, an all-out war would inevitably erupt between the two races!
"Kid, are you speaking the truth?
Don’t lie."
The giants, upon hearing Ye Yunfei’s words, were uncertain whether to believe him.
"Kid, you’re only saying this because you're being hunted, with no way out! You’re deliberately spouting nonsense to confuse us, hoping to escape in the chaos!
Although our Great Strength Beast Clan does not fear the Giant Clan, we don’t go around deliberately picking fights either!"
The Great Strength Beast, its two eyes as large as lakes glaring fiercely at Ye Yunfei, roared in indignation.
"Kid, do you have any idea how severe the consequences of deceiving us will be?"
One giant stared at Ye Yunfei, releasing a mighty wave of blood-qi energy that swept toward him. For a moment, it felt like a typhoon of the highest magnitude, sending sand and stones flying across the land.
"I'm not trying to deceive you.
Watch."
Ye Yunfei smiled faintly.
Then, Ye Yunfei waved a hand, and a scene materialized in the space before him.
It was precisely the scene from earlier when he had been surrounded by a dozen Great Strength Beasts.
Next, the dialogue spoken by those dozen Great Strength Beasts within the image was also transmitted audibly.
The line about the clan having captured the daughter of an important figure from the Giant Clan was transmitted with perfect clarity into the ears of the giants.
"Damn it!
Those idiots actually mentioned such matters in front of this brat!"
Seeing this, the lead Great Strength Beast knew things had taken a turn for the worse.
"Kid, you fabricated this!
It's fake!
You're trying to start a war between our two races so you can escape in the chaos!"
The Great Strength Beast roared.
"Kid, go die!"
In a rage, the Great Strength Beast violently coiled its tail backward and lashed it across the distance at Ye Yunfei.
*Rumble rumble…*
The power contained within this tail was too terrifying. It instantly shattered the space before Ye Yunfei, cleaving it into two halves and leaving behind a dark, gaping spatial rift.
The dreadful force instantly submerged Ye Yunfei!
This Great Strength Beast possessed strength at the Heavenly Emperor level!
"Let this lad finish speaking!"
One giant lifted a massive stone club, swinging it like a mountain range moving through the air. With a *thud*, it struck and rebuffed the Great Strength Beast's tail.
"This is Time Reversal Art, faithfully reconstructing what just occurred.
I believe with your capabilities, you can discern its authenticity."
Ye Yunfei said with a cold laugh.
"It was spoken by that fellow over there. Why don't you ask him."
Suddenly, Ye Yunfei pointed at a Great Strength Beast in the rear.
This beast was drenched in blood, covered in wounds; he had been brutally beaten by Ye Yunfei earlier but was still alive, trailing at the very back.
*Swoosh!*
As soon as the words left his mouth, Ye Yunfei activated his Spatial Teleportation Art, appearing beside this Great Strength Beast. In one fluid motion, he grabbed the beast by its tail, then teleported again, returning to his original spot.
This Great Strength Beast was relatively weak and already injured, making it completely incapable of resisting Ye Yunfei.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Yunfei tossed the beast before the several dozen giants.
Ye Yunfei’s actions were far too abrupt—swift and decisive.
The Great Strength Beasts hadn't even reacted in time.
"Roar…!
Kid, you’re dead!"
Once the Great Strength Beasts snapped out of their shock, they all exploded with fury.
"Speak!
Was Miss Qi E captured by your clan or not?!"
One giant reached out, lifted the Great Strength Beast, and demanded angrily.
Surrounded by dozens of giants whose blood-qi swelled like oceans, the Great Strength Beast was scared out of its wits, its entire body going limp.
Within the Great Strength Beast Clan, he belonged to the weaker echelon and was no match for these giants before him.
"Speak!"
The moment the Great Strength Beast hesitated slightly, one of its front limbs was ripped off.
"Don’t kill me! I’ll speak! Our clan did capture a maiden from the Giant Clan!
It's because a high-ranking member of our clan needed pure Giant Clan blood for cultivation!"
Panicked, the Great Strength Beast roared out everything recklessly.
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Knowing that disaster was imminent, the lead Great Strength Beast hurriedly bellowed in rage.
"Roar…!
So it truly was your Great Strength Beast Clan that did it!
Miss Qi E is Elder Qi’s daughter, the esteemed young lady of our clan with a noble bloodline! You actually dared to capture her for cultivation purposes!
This is the gravest of provocations!
War!
We go to war immediately!"
The several dozen giants all roared in unison.
The Great Strength Beast Ye Yunfei had captured was instantly punched in the head by one giant, its skull shattered, dying a gruesome death on the spot.
"Little brother, you’ve done well to inform us of Miss Qi E’s whereabouts. You are a good friend to us!
Come over here; we will protect you!"
One giant said to Ye Yunfei.
The gazes of all the giants turned grateful as they looked toward Ye Yunfei.
"Send word of Miss Qi E’s situation back immediately. Prepare for war with the Great Strength Beasts!"
A giant shouted loudly.
"Kid, you just wait! Our Great Strength Beast Clan will never let you off!"
The lead Great Strength Beast glared at Ye Yunfei with eyes filled with hatred, speaking through gritted teeth.
"Retreat!
Report back to the Chieftain immediately! Prepare for war!"
After that, the lead beast turned and fled.
*Rumble rumble…*
Hundreds of Great Strength Beasts collectively charged away into the distance.
"You must be joking!
This brat just arrived on Giant Star, and he’s already incited a war between the Giant Clan and the Great Strength Beasts!"
The Soul Emperor far away had witnessed everything, utterly astounded.
