Ch-225: Corrupted Beasts

"Corrupted Beasts?" Wang Ming asked with a frown, unfamiliar with the term.

"Yes, Corrupted Beasts," the Mu family head replied seriously. "The mountain clans have grown bolder since gaining this new power. Years ago, some members of our family considered wiping them out when they were less of a threat, but refrained because there were children among them. However, I've heard rumors that most of them were wiped out a few years ago due to the emergence of these beasts. With that obstacle gone, we no longer have any reason to hold back."

"I see," Wang Ming said, still puzzled. "Can someone explain exactly what a Corrupted Beast is and how they came to be?"

"It's better if we show you," Mu Zihan said, about to stand up and lead the way when a guard suddenly appeared.

"City Lord, there's a problem that needs your attention," the guard reported, his face pale and covered in sweat.
