Among the sea of clouds, mist churned, a dazzling golden light swiftly shuttling through the layers of clouds.

In the sky, the Heaven-Slaying Spear, enlarged several times, emitted a golden curtain, enveloping Jiang Che and the three beasts standing on it, shielding them from the head-on wind.

Wind howled in the ears, yet the body remained unaffected.

On the Heaven-Slaying Spear, Jiang Che controlled its direction with his Divine Sense, flying towards Changbai Mountain.

Nangong Luo unusually did not cultivate, standing aside, gazing far into the endless sky ahead, while Xiao Zi crouched at the spear's tip, concentrated on gnawing at a Spirit Fruit.

"Third Sister, with this Heaven-Slaying Spear, at our current speed, we might reach Changbai Mountain by tomorrow."

Comparing the current speed with that of their arrival, Jiang Che said with a faint smile.

"Tomorrow... just afraid humans might act against Changbai Mountain prematurely."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Luo turned her gaze back, speaking hesitantly.

Logically, their return speed was indeed swift.

After all, it took them a full seven days to arrive, yet Nangong Luo still felt a bit worried.

"Don't worry! With Tiger Vanguard, and Xiong Da Xiong Er there, along with the Mist Array you set up, it's enough to repel a small-scale human invasion.

And if humans want a large-scale attack on Changbai Mountain, this time surely won't be enough."

Seeing what Third Sister was worried about, Jiang Che spoke to comfort her.

"Hope so!"

Nangong Luo nodded, but her worry wasn't entirely dispelled.

"However, when we return to Changbai Mountain, we might face humans' strong counterattack; be prepared for that."

Jiang Che shifted his tone, advising Nangong Luo.

Having hit humans so hard, he believed they would surely retaliate.

Currently, wandering outside without a fixed base, humans couldn't pinpoint their location, unable to enact revenge.

But once they returned to Changbai Mountain, the situation would change.

Surely, humans wouldn't let this opportunity slip.

"Big Brother, human tactics will certainly be more intense than ever, not excluding the use of nuclear weapons; it's all on you this time."

Recalling the human misery witnessed earlier on the Great Prairie, Nangong Luo felt heavy-hearted, hastily reminding Jiang Che.

Had it not been for the Bodhi Holy Tree being in Changbai Mountain, hard to move, Nangong Luo would have persuaded Big Brother to temporarily avoid the edge and not return to Changbai Mountain for now.

After all, as humans' ultimate weapon, nuclear weapons were no joke; as long as the yield was sufficient, one strike could destroy the entire Changbai Mountain.

"With the Heaven-Slaying Spear here, even if humans deploy nuclear weapons, your big brother can block it."

Jiang Che raised his tiger paw, lightly patting the Heaven-Slaying Spear beneath him, confidently stating.

Nangong Luo nodded; if not for the Heaven-Slaying Spear, she wouldn't agree to go back together.

Recalling past memories about Spirit Treasures, she promptly advised: "Big Brother, you've just begun mastering the Heaven-Slaying Spear; to fully unleash its power, you need to nurture it daily until completely bonded."

"Alright, understood."

Jiang Che replied, currently rushing, not able to nurture it now, only possible after returning to Changbai Mountain.

Da Kun Military District

An urgent meeting was about to commence; upon suddenly receiving meeting information, the higher-ups in the district immediately headed towards the conference room.

Inside the conference room.

Da Kun Military District's higher-ups had all arrived, numerous officers looked towards the district chief at the head, eyes carrying inquiry.

This meeting was extremely sudden, additionally, without prior notice of the agenda, resulting in everyone being completely perplexed.

The district chief's face was somber, eyes sweeping across those present, speaking stiffly: "This is the video footage sent from the Imperial Capital, everyone take a look."

As soon as the words fell, the screen in front opened instantly, playing the scene of the Great Prairie battle.

Everyone looked towards the screen.

The moment Thunder Tiger appeared, all faces drastically changed.

Thunder Tiger!

Thunder Tiger actually managed to leave Changbai Mountain unnoticed, heading to the Great Prairie!

"Damn beast!"

"I must slaughter that beast!"

"If not slay that beast..."

…

Upon seeing Thunder Tiger massacre many human Extraordinaries and Warriors, everyone instantly became furious.

"Enough!"

The district chief slammed the table, coldly shouting.

In a flash, the conference room silenced completely, those originally seething with anger shut their mouths directly.

"Letting Thunder Tiger go off to the Great Prairie is our Da Kun Military District's dereliction!

If we could have early detected Thunder Tiger's traces, the Imperial Capital would have been prepared and not caught off guard by Thunder Tiger."

The district chief's tone was full of regret.

"However, when Thunder Tiger returns, our district must keep a close watch on Changbai Mountain, focusing on their every move without letting any error occur."

The district chief spoke again.

"Chief, since Thunder Tiger is not around, can we think of doing something with the Treasure Tree in Changbai Mountain?

Perhaps take the opportunity to seize it or destroy it, as revenge on this beast."

Suddenly, someone suggested.

"This idea is good; regardless of Thunder Tiger's absence, we should seize this chance to snatch its Treasure Tree.

Until now, we don't know why Thunder Tiger treasures that Tree so much, nor what effects it possesses.

If we could obtain it, surely Dean Lin and others would be very interested."

Another person agreed with the suggestion.

Upon hearing their words, others present also nodded in agreement, the district chief then spoke out: "The Imperial Capital sent us related footage.

Apart from wanting to alert us about Thunder Tiger's whereabouts, likely, there's also that intention inside; if we seize that Treasure Tree, surely it will cause Thunder Tiger great pain."

"Though the Imperial Capital didn't explicitly state, so our Da Kun Military District can choose whether to act.

Since everyone agrees, that matter is settled."

After the district chief finished speaking, a military officer suddenly frowned, reminding: "Chief, if the district truly aims for the Treasure Tree, we need to act quickly.

Based on current circumstances, this Immortal Divine Treasure was likely taken by Thunder Tiger already.

If Thunder Tiger heading to the Great Prairie was for the Immortal Divine Treasure, then now, they are probably rushing back.

We must complete corresponding actions before they return."

The district chief nodded, raised his hand to check the time, spoke solemnly: "Indeed, we don't have much time to prepare. It's already six in the afternoon, let's set the action time for six tomorrow morning."

"Moreover, if aiming to seize the Treasure Tree, bombing Changbai Mountain is not an option.

Next, we need to select some powerful Extraordinaries from the district, forming an Extraordinary squad to complete the task!

Post-meeting, arrange for it, swiftly finish the selection and integration."

"Yes!"

All responded in unison.
