"Hmm,"

"Then why didn't they join forces to attack Heavenly Gate Mountain?" Li Hao asked.

"The, the King said that the Dragon Master doesn't want them to take down Heavenly Gate Mountain too soon. That way, they can slowly savor more delicacies and at the same time, tie down the Li Family's military forces..." the burly woman Trembled as she spoke, her eyes filled with fear, yet it seemed she was also hiding a ferocity.

"If that's the case, why does it want to attack tonight?"

Li Hao asked again.

"The King said it wants to eat Li Hongzhuang, as for Heavenly Gate Mountain, it can just stay here, waiting to see if any other Li Family members will come to continue guarding it. If there is one, he will eat one," the burly woman said, cautiously watching Li Hao, the young man in front of her, who also seemed to be a member of the Li Family.

Li Hao's eyes narrowed slightly; was Heavenly Gate Mountain being used as bait?
