Fang Yu's eyes suddenly narrowed.
He began to realize why the Crimson Hammer Giant Ape Spirits were willing to seek refuge with him.
It wasn't just because they were impressed by his strength.
Rather, it was their keen senses smelling some dangerous Qi, seeking a backer in advance.
Their options for a backer were limited, and after knowing there was someone above him, they chose to seek refuge with him for protection.
A smart choice.
Everything suddenly made sense.
But the Crimson Hammer Giant Ape Spirit, now seen through by Fang Yu, remained calm in demeanor.
"Lord, I am just seeking a chance for self-preservation for myself and my brothers below. A storm is approaching, and one needs to hold on to a big tree."
Fang Yu chuckled: "This tree of mine is not very stable."
The Crimson Hammer Giant Ape Spirit also laughed.
"Lord, you are the thickest tree we could find."
Fang Yu's smile faded.
