Once again, he rushed out for several hours in one go.

He was already completely far from the Qingyang Xiao Family by several thousand miles.

The sky was getting dark, the setting sun swallowed by distant mountains.

Soon the entire world was completely black.

Jiang Shi finally stopped.

"We can't keep rushing; it seems tonight we have to spend the night in the woods."

Jiang Shi spoke.

䀚!

The Great Demon Horse responded with a sound, nodding repeatedly in agreement.

Ah!

Suddenly, a piercing scream echoed from the dark forest, accompanied by chaotic footsteps, suggesting someone was frantically escaping.

Jiang Shi suddenly turned around, his gaze sharp like lightning in the night.

Even that Great Demon Horse turned its head at once but soon its fur bristled, sensing something ominous; it was the innate intuition for danger that belonged to a Demon Beast.

That kind of crisis penetrated the bloodline, deriving from a fear of higher-level Demon Beasts.

Chaotic footsteps approached quickly, and the Great Demon Horse became unusually uneasy as well.

Amidst this, the piercing, panicked screams kept echoing.

"Run quickly, it's not something we can contend with!"

"Beast!"

"Father…"

Various chaotic voices sounded, and soon a group of people frantically dashed out from a path in the forest, each bleeding and in extreme disarray, hair disheveled, as though they had endured a great catastrophe.

They rushed out of the woods and quickly noticed Jiang Shi, with one person shouting, "Little brother, run, there's a Demon Beast, this forest has a Demon Beast, run!"

Someone beside him quickly pulled him along, continuing to flee into the distance.

Daring not to linger even a moment.

Demon Beast?

Jiang Shi frowned.

In the Central Plains, there are numerous Noble Families, with a strong martial atmosphere; would there be Demon Beasts in such places?

桀…

Suddenly, a loud, piercing sound came from above, bringing a terrifying gale, with large shadows enveloping the area.

A fleeing group of Jianghu people screamed in even greater panic.

Jiang Shi also suddenly looked up.

Not an ordinary Demon Beast!

It's a Demon Bird!

He saw an incredibly terrifying green giant eagle, with wings spanning seven to eight meters, moving swiftly, swooping towards Jiang Shi like a meteor, one claw as sharp as Meteorite Iron.

䀚!

The Great Demon Horse neighed uneasily, repeatedly.

Jiang Shi's face was icy, unflinching, directly stretching out a palm, preparing to grab the green giant eagle.

Not knowing life from death!

You'll stay here as food for me, won't you?

However, the intelligent green giant eagle seemed to sense something; the moment it was about to dive, its body suddenly folded and soared back into the sky, hovering, its eyes cold, watching Jiang Shi below.

"Such a clever demon creature!"

Jiang Shi raised his head, subconsciously reaching into a cloth pouch beside the Great Demon Horse, retrieving a few steel balls the size of eggs.

桀!

The green giant eagle emitted a screeching sound, like metal scraping, its gaze icy, taking one last look at Jiang Shi, suddenly its wings flapped and it quickly vanished from the place.

Jiang Shi frowned.

Gone?

He gripped the steel balls in his hand, realizing the distance was too far, ultimately giving up the attack.

A group of fleeing Jianghu people in the distance also widened their eyes, utterly unexpected that the green giant bird that had slaughtered them into disarray would leave just like that?

In an instant, they held all sorts of speculations about Jiang Shi's strength, but speculations were speculations; they didn't dare to stop for a moment, continuing to flee farther away.

Previously, they had been played with like mice by this demon creature, tormented to death, nearly driving them to collapse.

This despair, they would never forget.

Jiang Shi put away the steel balls, dismounted, picked up some dry wood from the ground, piled it together, preparing to spend the night here.

Before long, a campfire was lit.

As Jiang Shi listened carefully, preparing to hunt some small animals for dinner, suddenly from high above, came once again the sharp, piercing cry of an eagle.

The green giant eagle that had just left, once again rushed in from afar, its eyes icy, with several figures standing on its back, looking down from above.

"It's him, go down!"

One of the figures spoke coldly.

The green giant eagle let out a piercing scream, its eyes ruthless, seemingly no longer fearing Jiang Shi with its master's backing, once again diving swiftly from high in the air.

When it was still more than ten meters from the ground, the figures on its back let out a cold hum, their bodies leapt, power exploded, leaping down from the eagle's back, and falling steadily to the ground.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Three figures landed steadily, making no sound at all, as if they were as light as a feather, without any weight.

It was clear their Lightweight Skills were profound, exceeding ordinary people.

桀!

After these three figures landed, the green giant eagle soared again, its eyes ruthless, staring at Jiang Shi's Great Demon Horse, seemingly seeing it as prey.

At any moment, it might pounce down.

The Great Demon Horse immediately became flustered, quickly rising to hide behind Jiang Shi.

Jiang Shi's expression was calm, gently stroking the horse's head, his gaze scanning, looking towards the figure in the center, "It's you!"

"Seems you still remember me!"

The figure's voice was cold, about forty, with a short beard, quite tall, the cheekbones on both sides prominently high, especially his eyes which were exceedingly peculiar.

Even in the night, they seemed to reflect light, causing various illusions, like two multi-faceted prisms that could emit light on their own.
