"Retreat quickly!" the War Emperors hastily backed away.
With their retreat, the War Venerates behind them also began to retreat, followed by War Kings, War Generals, and Warriors. Since they were originally positioned further back, their speed, although not comparable to those from the Upper Three Realms, actually put them at an advantage in retreating.
As the Bird Man took a deep breath, all the vegetation around withered instantly.
It was because their life essence had been forcibly sucked away to replenish the Bird Man's origin. Though the people retreated quickly, a portion of their life essence was also absorbed, leaving them looking listless.
Only a few people were exceptions—Chu Hao, Barbaric Girl, Ke Ruoshan, Fat Cat, and Zhang Tianhua.
