After finishing his story, Mo Xie immediately moves towards the cage where the prisoners are being held.
With one swift slap aims at the cage.
_Pak!_
"We... We're free now!" One of the prisoners spoke. It's a lady that's near the age of twenty.
As soon as the lady felt her life has finally been saved, her eyes unconsciously move towards Mo Xie's face.
"Thank... Thank you..." But as soon as the lady saw Mo Xie's face, her gaze immediately moves away with her face blushing.
Mo Xie only chuckles as he nodded and looks at the rest of the prisoners; "All of you can wait here until the experts from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom arrives since all of you can't return right now as more Demonic Beasts are coming this way."
Everyone immediately shivers to hear this piece of information.
"Don't worry, I`ll do my best to protect everyone, so just take it easy. All of you can also take the meat from the demonic beasts as you all wait." Mo Xie spoke to reassure them and prevent any panic from occurring.
The citizens heave a sigh of relief, but nobody knew that Mo Xie himself can't handle the approaching hundred more groups of the Demonic Beasts with only the two of them.
"Ex...Excuse me." At this moment, a voice sounded. It came from a child with two of her little brothers with her.
"Hmm? What is it?" (Mo Xie)
"We... We're from..." The child felt a little hesitant before continuing; "We're from the Solar Blaze Kingdom..."
As her words finish, she looks at the ground afraid of what the people around her will say or even do.
"Oh, don't worry about that. This is the border, no matter where you came from, nobody will judge as I never came from any of the three kingdoms here." Mo Xie smiles as he spoke and pats the head of the child.
"Me too."
"Us too, we came from the Solar Blaze Kingdom."
"We came from the Azure Imperial Kingdom."
All of those that didn't live in the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom started to voice their own words.
The population of the prisoners is at least 80% from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom as they kept hearing words like 'The Soldiers from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom will save us' and things as such. This point held those that didn't come from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom be afraid of two things.
One is to be killed by the Demonic Beast and the second one is to be killed by the experts from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom.
But just right at this moment, one of the prisoners that came from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom spoke.
"Don't worry, only those from the royal capital cares about like the difference from what kingdom had you came from, we villagers only care about how to live like you." A lady that seems to be at the age of 18 spoke.
"Yeah, don't worry about it, we are all human beings, there's no difference about us."
"Yeah! Don't worry big sis!"
Hearing this, the child suddenly felt warm in her chest; "Thank you... Thank you, everyone... wuu..."
She couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.
Mo Xie chuckles as he nodded; "Then, I will return to my mount first. All of you should rest up and prepare for something to eat for all of you."
Demonic Beasts meat is extremely valuable that only those from the royal capital can enjoy it daily, and those with a position in the city can eat leisurely. The villagers could only sell it to let everyone be able to eat such as normal meat.
Everyone nodded as they spoke: "Thank you very much, benefactor."
Mo Xie nodded as he returns back to Zhuding's side while the citizens started to prepare for their food and some resting place and since the area where they are has a river and is almost near the forest, everything went smoother than expected.
Also at this moment, Mo Xie arrives beside Zhuding.
"Master." Zhuding opens his eyes as he bows his head.
With a nod, Mo Xie spoke; "I`m going to tell you about the Celestial Devouring Art now."
Mo Xie pauses as he continues; "The Celestial Devouring Art is a skill solely for the Taishe Sky Dragon due to its special properties. It focuses solely on the Taishe Sky Dragon's Demonic Beast Core."
"This skill is what brought your race to be placed in the Heavenly Beast records. Although it can only be used once a year, its effects are great." Mo Xie spoke as he kept remembering the time where the little snake became a dragon due to this technique and actually entered the Heavenly Beast ranks.
Zhuding looks at Mo Xie waiting for his following words.
"The Celestial Devouring Art is a technique that will not only help you devour a Demonic Beast, but will also help you retain 50% of their Cultivation Essence, in short, 50% of their Spiritual Energy will become yours."
"Master..." Hearing Mo Xie's words, Zhuding couldn't help but be speechless; [I`m currently at the peak of the Sky Shattering rank, eating a peak-stage Heaven Encompassing rank will immediately boost me to almost at the breakthrough of the mid-stage of Heaven Encompassing rank... or even the peak!]
(Author's note; MATH: 50% Of peak stage Heaven Encompassing rank = mid-stage, then + with Sky Shattering rank = almost breaking through or might've broken through to the peak.)
With these thoughts, Zhuding's gaze slowly moves towards the Hyena-type Demonic Beast with the Sealing Xin Arrow pierced on its hand.
"Zhuding, feast on it. Just be sure to leave the hand with the arrow." (Mo Xie)
"Yes, Master!" Zhuding replies with so much enthusiasm.
"GRAAAA!"
The Hyena's eyes seem to be begging for mercy, but with the Sealing Xin Arrow on its hand, it couldn't even growl from pain.

"Where... What place is this..."
At this moment back at the ancient ruins in the middle of the forest, the lady spoke as tears start flowing down from her eyes.
"Mom... Dad... somebody... please save me, wuuu."
The lady is desperate for help as being summoned to a different World without anyone explaining anything will definitely drive one insane.
"Hmmm? Why is that weakling dead?"
Just as her desperation is starting to take the toll in her mind, a voice sounded.
The lady's gaze follows the direction where the voice came from.
"Please help m..." The lady was full of smiles as she thought that a savior has come but something cuts her up.
The one that spoke made her tremble with fear because that person has the head of a goat with half of his body as a human with a pair of wings.
"I already told you that leaving the queen to that lizard is dangerous." Another one spoke. This time, it looks like a human in a dragon's form.
"Yes, but I think our queen is safe and sound. Look over there." Another one spoke, like the other two, he has a pair of wings but his head is that of a lion.
The three of them slowly descends from the sky as they move towards the lady landing in front of her.
The three of them then immediately kneeled.
"Our Queen."
Que...Queen?!" The lady spoke in shock.
