Soon, they heard the screeching of the Celestial Bird echoing from the cave where it was kept.
With Ximen Sha absent, the members of the Ximen Family were now led by Ximen Sha's younger brother, Ximen Lou.
Ximen Lou was also a Divine Realm Martial Artist, but he had only attained the Twelve Gods, far inferior to Ximen Sha.
Not seeing any trace of Ximen Sha, he suddenly heard the screeching of the Celestial Bird abruptly cut off, filling his heart with fear.
He reckoned that the strength of the uninvited guest was, in all likelihood, above that of Ximen Sha.
Even if they rushed to the rescue, it was highly likely they would only add to the casualties.
Moreover, the recent destruction of two Noble Families in succession filled him with dread.
He also feared that such a fate might befall their Ximen Family.
"Third Uncle, what should we do?"
A Ximen Family disciple asked Ximen Lou.
