It was still quiet when Ou Yangming returned to the prefecture. The beast tide did not break out again, and the ferocious beasts, which previously filled the mountains and plains, were dispatched by the spirit beast elsewhere and were nowhere to be found.
Knowing that Ou Yangming had returned, several Supreme Great Ancestors hurried over and talked about this problem with grim looks.
"Gentlemen, we can't trace the ferocious beasts from the top of the city walls, but we'll definitely find them if we send scouts." Ou Yangming was surprised. He looked at the others in confusion and wondered, 'Were they frightened out of their wits by the spirit beast? How can they not figure it out?'
Nonetheless, Li Xinfan shook his head and said, "We've sent scouts at the peak of Yang Grade, but we can't find tracks of them within 15 kilometers from the city."
