Upon watching Princess Jinrou leave, Chu Mu only gave a slight smile but didn’t say much. He glanced at Ye Qingzi, who was standing not far away, and slowly walked towards her.

Ye Qingzi had been standing nearby all along, but at this moment, her gaze was not on Chu Mu, but rather fixed on the approaching black cloud.

“What’s wrong?” Chu Mu walked up to Ye Qingzi and asked with confusion, looking in the same direction as her.

Ye Qingzi extended her finger, pointing to the night sky where the black cloud was approaching, and slowly asked, “Do you feel any unusual aura?”

“Unusual aura?” Chu Mu revealed a look of confusion and gazed at the horizon.

The black cloud had originally been at the edge of the sky, but now it had appeared right in the middle. It was evident that it had come flying from a faraway place.

When Chu Mu first noticed this peculiar black cloud, it had seemed as if a large group of Winged System Soul Pets were flying towards him. However, as the black cloud approached, Chu Mu’s face gradually revealed an expression of shock!

The black cloud was not like a formation of Winged System Soul Pets but rather a massive group of winged creatures that resembled insects, stirring up a terrifying wave of demon qi as they swept towards them!!

When Chu Mu discovered this sky-change, the lord of the Great Chu Noble Family, Chu Lieming, had long been staring at the horizon, his face becoming extremely grave.

Gradually, more and more people discovered this strange and alarming phenomenon. Everyone turned their attention behind them, gazing up at the night sky with utter horror as the massive group of Insect Species and Winged System Soul Pets approached!

“This is…” Elder Tu’s gaze was deep, and his wrinkled face displayed an expression of disbelief.

“So many Soul Pets… such a frightening aura!”

The demonic wind raged, casting a huge demonic hand over the vast night sky, slowly stretching towards Chu Mountain!

Although the massive group of Soul Pets in the sky was still some distance away from Chu Mountain, the sight of this terrifying scene made people shiver! !

The area of the black cloud was dreadfully large, gradually swallowing up the starlight and moonlight. Everywhere it covered was plunged into utter darkness, as if everything had been destroyed – mountain peaks, mountain ranges, and rivers. After the black cloud rolled through, everything vanished!!

Princess Jinrou had just arrived at her seat and stopped walking. Staring up at the terrifying scene that was becoming clearer by the moment, even she couldn’t maintain her usual composure and calmness…

“Princess Jinrou, please quickly come with me to a safe place!” At this moment, Chu Lieming spoke. While the family head was speaking, the elders, clan teachers, and other members of the Great Chu Family had already begun to display panic. One by one, they summoned their Soul Pets and flew towards the main mountain peak of Chu Mountain.

Panic-stricken commotion gradually erupted, making the battlefield more chaotic. All the young disciples of the Great Chu Family seemed to anticipate what was happening and frantically ran to their teachers’ sides, summoning their own Soul Pets and evacuating towards the main peak under the command of the elders and family head.

Perhaps due to the spread of bad news, this sudden evacuation phenomenon became somewhat disorderly, with more and more members only looking out for themselves and flying to the main mountain peak. Some even let out unsettling screams.

“Young Master, please leave with me immediately.” Amidst the confusion and chaos of the seats, Elder Tu unknowingly appeared in front of Chu Mu. He recited a spell, swiftly summoning a huge Winged System Soul Pet that flapped its flesh wings in front of Chu Mu.

“Elder Tu, what is going on?” Chu Mu asked in confusion.

“There will be time to explain everything to the Young Master later. Let’s go to a safe place first.” Elder Tu looked very anxious.

Chu Mu nodded, and with Ye Qingzi’s help, jumped on Elder Tul s Soul Pet. He specially glanced at Chu Qian.

Seeing that Chu Qian had already been taken away by her teacher, Chu Mu followed Elder Tu as they headed towards the main peak of the Great Chu Family.

With the flesh wings spread open, Elder Tu’s Soul Pet harnessed the power of the wind, soaring upwards. Amid the chaotic flying group, it held an absolute advantage, swiftly sweeping over several sharp-peaked mountain ranges and passing through towering cliffs…

“Whoo, whoo, whoo,

Wind whistled past their ears, and Chu Mu turned back to see that the terrifying black cloud had gradually come closer. If there was no mistake in his estimation, that was probably the frightening aura engulfing the sky, formed by the flight of thousands upon thousands of Winged and Insect Species Soul Pets.

“All young generation members, enter the stone chamber immediately.

Without orders, no one is allowed to come out! Understood?!” Just then, the

Great Chu Family’s lord, Li Lieming, who was riding a Giant Black Flying Condor, spoke loudly through his Soul Sense. His voice was very powerful and almost reverberated across the entire Chu Mountain.

Surrounding them, more and more Soul Pet Trainers from the Great Chu family anxiously flew on their soul pets, and from the looks on their faces, it seemed as if some catastrophic power was about to sweep through the entire Great Chu Family!

Seeing everyone’s panicked expressions, Chu Mu was also secretly alarmed. Glancing back at the terrifying black cloud, he suddenly noticed some black dots flying at an incredibly fast speed toward Chu Mountain!!

“Sky Demon Bugs are attacking! A startled cry rang out, filling the air with fear and unease. Following that, piercing screeches sounded from the black night amidst the mountain peaks, making the unsettling darkness even more terrifying!

A strange scream came from behind a mountain peak, and Chu Mu saw a swarm of black dots like a horde of hornets quickly converging on the other side of the mountain. In a moment, the screams vanished, leaving behind the unsatisfied black creatures that emerged from behind the mountain and locked their sights on other targets!

“What is…?” Ye Qingzi opened her little mouth in astonishment, her eyes full of fear!

Although Chu Mu couldn’t fully see the situation behind the nearby mountain peak, when the smell of blood began to spread around him, he quickly understood what those black creatures were.

“Don’t worry, the true Sky Demon Bug invasion hasn’t happened yet. I’ll protect you. You’ll be safe,” Elder Tu immediately reassured Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi.

Chu Mu nodded, scanning his surroundings. He quickly noticed several black dots moving swiftly through the dark night, approaching with rapid wingbeats.

Suddenly, a dazzling flame burst in the sky, and its eighth-level power instantly caused a noticeable trembling in the mountain peaks!

The flame burnt the attacking creatures in mid-air to ashes, sending the remains plummeting down to the bottomless valley.

With the release of this flame skill, various booms echoed between the mountain peaks as multiple colorful skills burst, creating a dazzling display of sparkling lights.

“These idiots, don’t they know that light attracts those things? Do they want to destroy the entire Great Chu Family?!” Elder Tu scolded angrily, and immediately used his Soul Sense to berate the surrounding Soul Pet Trainers, forbidding them from using any skills that would cause light to leak out!

The eerie sounds grew louder and more numerous, like countless flies and mosquitoes in their ears. Yet Chu Mu knew that the figures flitting and swooping through the dark night weren’t ordinary bugs, but insect-type soul pets from the Sky Demon Bug army!

A terrible scream suddenly came from the bottom of a mountain stream not far away. Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi immediately turned their heads to see a dreadful creature with eight pairs of flesh wings firmly grasping a Soul Pet Trainer’s Blue Bird and dragging them from mid-air to the bottom of the mountain stream!

“Don’t worry about it. It’s a Six-winged Sky Demon Bug, at least an Eighth Rank Commander. That guy won’t survive,” Elder Tu said indifferently.

Staring at the gradually disappearing Six-winged creature in the mountain stream, Chu Mu’s heart trembled even more. This insect-type soul pet that had flown in from the so-called Sky Demon Bug army was actually on par with an astonishingly powerful Eighth Rank Commander soul pet!

Elder Tu’s soul pet flew much faster and landed behind Chu Mountain’s main peak. He immediately brought Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi into the large stone chamber where the young members of high status were taking refuge.

The stone chamber was built behind the continuous mansions of Chu Mountain’s main peak. From the looks of it, the chamber had been constructed with very solid stone materials and equipment, and even an eighth-level skill couldn’t shake it.

When Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi reached the entrance of the stone chamber,

Princess Jinrou, Chu Ke, Chu Dian, and others were already standing there. They didn’t enter the shelter immediately but stood there, gazing at the sky full of screams.

“What’s going on?” Chu Mu looked at the disciples of the Great Chu family and asked.

“Haven’t you heard?” Chu Ke opened his mouth, “This is the most terrifying disaster in the whole Wogu Domain, the Sting Valley Disaster that often breaks out late at night!”

Princess Jinrou was obviously also unaware of this matter and stood beside Chu Ke, listening carefully to his explanation.

Finding Jinrou close, Chu Ke seemed to develop an attitude adjustment and explained, “Our Great Chu family is very close to Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley. When the creatures in the valley become too numerous to be satisfied by the food available, they will come out in swarms to gather food. People in the Wogu Domain call this phenomenon ‘Zhehuang’, which happens once or twice every few years. However, Princess Jinrou, you don’t have to worry. Our Great Chu family’s establishment was specifically designed to defend against the ‘Zhehuang’. As long as we take measures in time and hide for a few days, there won’t be any problems.”
