As soon as they heard that screech, everyone stopped and looked in the direction of that noise. The Amaranthine Lion stared off into the distance, breathing heavily as it thought about how to best deal with this new threat.
A small shadow slowly grew as something came quickly.
But that wasn't enough, there were over a dozen other roars and cries as other beasts made themselves known.
"No, this is too dangerous now, retreat!"
Niu Hong quickly shouted to the others as the situation changed drastically. Everyone turned and ran, not sparing even a glance at the beast.
The lion looked around, taking a step back as it roared at its surroundings.
Shadows emerged from every direction, looking at the Amaranthine Lion and the golem. There was no doubt that they had been watching from the very beginning. The moment the golem made its entrance their attention was already on it. Now it had been a matter of who dared to openly challenge the thing.
