Understanding what they were planning, Jared headed toward the mountain's peak without needing them to force him.
Meanwhile, the demon beasts trailed behind Jared quietly. Surprisingly, none of them unleashed their attacks on him. Curiosity filled Jared, but he could not get an answer because he didn't know how to communicate with the demon beasts. All he could do now was get to the peak to find out what the demon beasts wanted to achieve.
He soon arrived at the summit of the mountain. To his surprise, he spotted a stone-made house decorated extravagantly. It was evident that such a well-decorated house wasn't constructed by the demon beasts.
“Is this someone's house?” Jared murmured to himself, overjoyed. He had never expected someone to reside on the peak of Demon Beast Mountain.
All of a sudden, an idea struck Jared. He wondered whether these demon beasts were pets reared by the owner of the house.
That will be the only way to explain the house and traces of human activities here.
Jared slowly approached the house and pushed open the door. As he did so, a pleasant scent wafted into his nostrils. He scanned the interior of the house and realized no one was around, but the house consisted of plenty of household goods and proper furniture. There was even a dressing table with a mirror on it.
Shocked, Jared wondered out loud, “Is the owner a female?” He examined the layout of the bedroom, concluding that the occupant was indeed a woman.
Subsequently, he stepped into the room while the demon beasts paced back and forth outside. None of them dared to get close. After looking around the room and noticing there was no one inside, he walked back out.
However, the moment he exited the room, a loud whistle sounded, and the sky darkened instantly.
A colorful phoenix circled in the sky, and the demon beasts knelt on the ground one after another, growling and showing respect.
