Far away from the clash in the skies, Squad Leader Tao and his company stared at the battle above in awe; they didn't think that they would encounter such strong warriors capable of fighting against that dreadful horde. One that was fabled as a calamity that could wipe out most towns and villages of these desert lands.

After inspecting the scene for a little while, Squad Leader Tao soon recovered as he remembered his duty. He stared at his crew and spoke, "Men, let's get moving, all of those Desert Lards should be fully focused on their guys."

"As the Squad Leader commands."

The men replied in unison as they took up their positions once more; the coachman also urged the carriage, which under the lead of Squad Leader Tao, slowly began to slip away from the conflict. The merchants that stood within their company started to heave sighs of relief as they chattered a bit more in ease.

"Whew! That was close, if those guys hadn't shown up, we'd be done for, we should be paying them to escort us than these useless fellows."

"Hmph! Right, I've decided to never travel this route again, I'd rather pass through those bandit territories and pay tax."

The merchants made no attempt to hide their ridicule, as those on the outside had dark looks in their eyes when they heard their words.

'Ungrateful pieces of shit,' Squad Leader Tao said inwardly as he frowned, but he soon took his attention from them once again as he sensed something ominous.

'Such a dreadful power, could it be...?' Squad Leader Tao thought in shock, as he shifted his eyes towards the sky once again, only to see a scary scene.

Suddenly, three resonant roars resounded across the open sky; the horde of Desert Lards seemed to have been influenced by these roars as many of them parted before circling to the side.

Following this, three massive Desert Lards had appeared from behind the others, each having a size of a few hundred meters. Their bodies emanated a dense earthen colored power that scattered across the entire area.

Observing them closely, one would notice that the two at the front had a dark brown color compared to the one at the back, which gave off an intimidating air as its scaly black colored flesh had various scars. The two at the front were Second Star Tier Four essence beasts, while the final creature was a Third Star Tier Four beast, each having the combat power of Initial Middle Stage Warrior Realm and Peak Initial Stage Warrior realm, respectively.

"My goodness, these are Tier Four Desert Lard Kings, this isn't good!" Squad Leader Tao exclaimed in horror as he could feel the devastating energies rippling across the sky.

In fact, even the Desert Prowlers had come to a standstill, and no matter how hard their riders tried to urge them in panic, they couldn't move due to the fear.

Another wild commotion formed between escorts and bandits, but another scene occurred for the parties directly facing these creatures.

The moment these beasts appeared, Feng Yu, Dai Lin, Lang Kuang, and the others observed with interest as they stood atop their Desert Prowlers that slowly made their way down towards the dunes.

Unlike them, however, Leon and Myria remained above, as if ready to face these creatures by themselves; Leon stood on his Desert Prowler with his fists positioned in a combat stance while Mira flapped her tiny cicada-like wings as she levitated nearby. Their hairs and clothing made flapping noises as they swayed with the harsh winds.

As if the Lard Kings noticed them, their reptilian eyes shrinking as they zoned in on the enemies that dared to face them in the head-on conflict. Not even wasting a second, the monster trio swooshed towards Leon and Myria. Their charge caused the wind to scatter about as if a storm was passing over.
