The next morning.
The sunlight shone and made Weng Ying Luan and Lin Mei who were still busy conversing finally stop.
Both of them faced the rising sun and enjoyed a momentary moment as the sun fully appeared in the sky.
"It's morning." Weng Ying Luan said in a calm tone.
"It seems like it's time for us to part once again" said Lin Mei who turned to Weng Ying Luan. He looked at Weng Ying Luan who was still staring towards the east. No one knows what he's thinking right now.
What Weng Ying Luan saw was not the rising sun, but something located far to the east. Although she could not really see it, yet Weng Ying Luan believed what she was looking at was Black Sand Island.
He took a deep breath, then closed his eyes. When he exhaled, he reopened both of his eyes and stared back at Lin Mei.
"I'll leave then, thank you for accompanying me chatting the entire night," Weng Ying Luan said.
A storage ring was thrown at him and was instantly captured by Lin Mei. He quickly checked the contents and was completely taken aback. A beautiful smile was seen on her face and she quickly put the ring on her index finger.
"That's half the stock I got from what Lou was hiding. Make sure you spend it when we meet again, it'll be dangerous if he knows you and I have it."
After giving the storage ring to Lin Mei, Weng Ying Luan flew down from the body of the giant eagle. All night the eagle remained hovering above the sky, and showed no sign of exhaustion in the slightest.
"If I had met you first, I would have told her that these cookies were obtained by you!" exclaimed Lin Mei while waving her hand.
Weng Ying Luan laughed softly and waved her hand back. He flew down on the ground and approached the Lion King who had been out of place all night, not even moving a bit.
Nodded contentedly. Weng Ying Luan patted the Lion King's head. He circulated his Soul Power into the Lion King's body. The Lion King was about to refuse, yet what could he do as a form of resistance at this moment? His body was not even willing to follow his will and only listened to Weng Ying Luan.
"With this, I give you orders that you must do at all times. Obey all orders Lin Mei. No matter what order he gives you, you must carry it out with pleasure. Then the other command, protect Lin Mei, guard her from any danger you might encounter. If he is injured or even dies, then your soul will not be able to enter the wheel of reincarnation and will forever be in this world, becoming a Vindictive Spirit." After he said all that, his Soul Power was pulled back into his body.
He gave the two orders to the Lion King, before then telling him to get up and go on acting as usual.
The Lion King only resigned as his body moved by itself and then joined together with the Goat Hermit who was lying in the grass region outside the ruins of the city.
Lin Mei watched this from above the giant eagle and did not comment in the slightest. He was quite pleased with the order that Weng Ying Luan had given to the Lion King. With this he did not have to worry about the Lion King not obeying his words.
After giving his orders, Weng Ying Luan looked at Lin Mei above the sky. His hands waved for the last time. After that, he flew away towards his next destination, which was the city that was near his current place.
"Understand me, Great Phoenix!"
*KIEEEKKKKK!!!!*
Screeches were heard by the entire beast in the ruins of the city. They immediately looked up at the sky and roared loudly in return. One by one they immediately stood up and went towards the south with the lead of a beast of a giant bird.
These birds served as their guides and spies to see the distant situation in front of the army of ferocious beasts.
The entire savage beast in the ruins of the city started walking away, and finally left behind two Soul Ruler beasts as well as Lin Mei and a giant eagle. The four of them moved behind the army of ferocious beasts at a steady pace, so as not to be too left behind by the army of ferocious beasts, or even to precede them.
"Phoenixes! What about the unfinished western and northern regions we cleared? There are still many places that are inhabited and controlled by the Ying Family!"
Below, the Hermit Goat spoke to Lin Mei via telepathy.
"No need to worry, the young man who fought last night with you and the Lion King will overcome both territories alone. He could be considered my acquaintance. We will focus on overcoming the southern region which is the region that is the center of all sorts of Ying Family trading operations. There will be too many Ying Family powerhouses there, it will take a very long time if we focus on the north and west, so I ask him to address the northern and western regions for us," clearly Lin Mei on the Hermit Goat.
The Goat Hermit snorted when he heard about the young man he fought last night. He still doesn't like it. His head felt dizzy over night after receiving the attack of Weng Ying Luan's New Full Palm and had to focus on healing his injuries.
The part he disliked the most was when he saw Weng Ying Luan who easily subdued the Lion King and made him bend his knees to him. It was an insult to the entire Soul Ruler beast. Although he was not good friends with the Lion King, but the two of them were partners in carrying out Lin Mei's orders, he was unwilling to see an unknown stranger do such a thing to his comrade.
"Is he really trustworthy? It could be that he betrayed us and instead brought the Ying Family army towards our current location." The words of the Hermit Goat slightly made Lin Mei unhappy, yet she should not show it too much. It would not be good if the Goat Hermit started to distrust him just because of the matter of Weng Ying Luan.
"Master, you don't have to worry about that. I made an oath to her so she wouldn't betray us. If he is reckless against us, then the oath that binds him will instantly kill him, both soul and body."
Hearing Lin Mei's reply, the Hermit Goat became slightly satisfied. He did not ask Lin Mei anything else either and chose silence while walking towards where the hundreds of thousands of ferocious beasts were going.
The Lion King next to him was silent from the start. After receiving the order from Weng Ying Luan, the Lion King was already able to move like before. But there was something different about him that he could not know what.
Finally, along the way, not a single word was spoken from him and kept walking in silence.
What the Lion King didn't know was, when Weng Ying Luan put her Soul Power inside the Lion King's body, she had made a mark using her Soul Power inside the Lion King's head.
With that mark, he could telepathically send the Lion King to any extent of himself, as long as he was still within the realm of the Ying Family. Weng Ying Luan could also use this mark to slightly see what the Lion King was looking at. This was to ensure the safety of Lin Mei.
He had promised Weng Lou and would not deny it. As much as possible he would ensure Lin Mei's safety. All of this was because he was the young man in charge and held his promise more than anything, it was Weng Ying Luan.
