Tang Xiu frowned and explained, "I got a hunch from yesterday's battle that these demonic beasts had some other goal for attacking the blockade line. And their purpose was to kill me."
At his explanation, Duanmu Lin stared dully and said in disbelief, "You said they want to kill you, so they launched yesterday's attack?"
"Yeah, it's a possibility I can't brush off." Tang Xiu nodded. "I observed the ground battle very clearly. The strongest among those demonic beasts were at the Golden Core Stage, but the number of flying demonic beasts was only 400, with ten of them at the Golden Core Stage. However, when I fought the ten of them, there was a particular flying demonic beast in hiding that suddenly attacked me, and its strength was on par with cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage."
