Xie Jiuniang discreetly examined the four great Demon Guards.
Touted as protectors of the young master, they were the amulet given by the Demon Emperor for her protection. As the one being protected, this was the first time she saw their true faces.
Thinking deeper,
It wasn't her that the Demon Emperor aimed to protect, but the dragon physique residing within her.
With that thought, she felt more at peace with accepting their protection.
One of them, a burly man who resembled a bear, bared his chest and arms, both covered in hair, and sported a thick beard that almost covered most of his face, gruffly said, "Young master, my name is Xiong Zhun, and my beast form is that of the Earth Bear."
"I am Lang Kai, of the Kuimu Wolf Clan."
"Young master, my name is Jiu Lai, and I'm from the Pigeon Clan."
All three men were rugged brutes, but if there was any distinction to be made, Xiong Zhun was the tallest and the most robust, resembling an iron tower.
