Because, when Evelynn removed her palms from her ears, he saw her bleed from her ears!
Davis flew away from Nadia but Evelynn suddenly grasped his hand, "Don’t go, I’m fine! It’s just a sound attack that ruptured my eardrums..."
Davis narrowed his eyes as he knew that it should be more than that! If Evelynn wasn’t a Fifth Stage Body Tempering Cultivator, he knew that she wouldn’t live to tell that it was just an eardrum rupture...
After all, the shriek had totally caught them off-guard. Even he felt his brain rumble for an instant.
As for Evelynn, she must’ve had it bad. If it weren’t for her Gold Stage Cultivation that had rather made her physical defenses extremely strong, she would have been critically injured!
If they were prepared for it, she would’ve been able to block it by combining her essence energy as a layer of defense as well.
"Anyone who harms you will die!"
Davis spat out of his mouth on all seriousness and spread his soul sense, wanting to view its name with his Death God Sense so that he could instantly kill it, however, another intermittent shriek echoed around the foggy atmosphere, causing Davis to freeze in his tracks.
Because this shriek clearly belonged to another Lord Beast Stage Magical Beast! And it rather strutted off its undulations like a powerhouse, warning all who can sense it!
’A Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage Magical Beast?’ Davis narrowed his eyes confusion along with the others.
What now?
In a few seconds, numerous explosions in varying degrees resounded and a miserable cry echoed from the clan leader of the Three-Winged Venomous Lizards.
Davis looked up and vaguely saw an eagle-like Magical Beast fly away with a lizard-like Magical Beast in its talons. He blinked and became speechless.
"Well, serves it right!" Davis snorted, not feeling pity for the clan leader of the Three-Winged Venomous Lizard.
If that eagle-like Magical Beast hadn’t done it, he would’ve killed it anyway since it harmed Evelynn with it shrieking sound attack.
"What happened?"L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
Evelynn confusedly asked again like a curious cat, making Davis ponder.
His eyes lit up as he felt that this would be the case.
"Didn’t Nadia say before that the clan leader secluded itself? It might because of this eagle-like Magical Beast hunting it! It probably has been heavily injured before, so it had secluded itself but it was forced out by us."
In a few minutes, the three of them arrived at a place.
This place had no grass but just a bunch of trees blocking a view to a cave-like entrance.
Davis flew above Nadia and landed on the ground, his countenance satisfied, recharged, and calm.
However, Evelynn who was still on Nadia took deep breaths and exhaled hot breaths, her perky breasts heaving up and down. Her cheeks were flushed red as she fell on to Nadia’s fur, feeling limp.
Her neck was marked with a bright crimson hickey!
Davis entered the cave-like lair.
After he had gone inside, Nadia suddenly asked, "Is that how you humans mate?"
Evelynn’s face flushed with a crimson hue devoid of any white in her cheeks. She hid her face with both her palm and uttered, "No..."
======
The lake was barren rock, however, there were stalagmite-like structures spread over the corner and the ceilings of the cave. The rocks seemed to carry traces of venom in it.
"What is this? Some kind of vomit from those Three-Winged Venomous Lizards?" Davis mused loudly, his voice echoing throughout the hall as it came back to him.
With his, he had mapped out the structure of the Lair with his physical sense, however, there was no need for that since he had mapped out the lake with his Soul Sense.
He pinpointed the place where the treasures laid in and walked towards the location. Once he crossed many narrow holes that led to different parts of the lairs, he saw an underground tunnel that led below.
Without hesitating, he flew below and the narrow pathway started to curve above. He finally saw light over the end of the tunnel and exited.
When he came out, he was greeted with a sight of a lush green hill that hosted a plethora of poisonous herbs, and beside it ran an underwater current that probably connected a river far away.
Davis wasn’t surprised by the underwater current since the ocean was just at the north of the Sunset Tear Mountain.
That said, he felt coming here was worth it because he identified two Peak-Level Sky Grade Ingredients that were poison-attributed. Combined with it, he found hundreds of ingredients like herbs, roots, buds, and stems ranging from Low-Level Sky Grade to High-Level Sky Grade.
Coming here was absolutely worth his time, and the whole way, he walked unbridled, unobstructed by anyone as the lair had been deserted for obvious or unknown reasons.
After all, the clan chiefs were dead, hence it is obvious that this lair would be abandoned but what about the High-Level Saint Beast Stage Three-Winged Venomous Lizards that have escaped? Shouldn’t they be here?
But as far as Davis could see or sense, none of them were here.
