The beasts Fang Chen was referring to were none other than the Saberfangs.
Words about the Saberfangs had already spread around town. There were whispers in taverns that four Saberfangs had torn through Phungrei City a long time ago.
Back then, the beasts' ranks were made public for all to gasp at.
Their realms were no secret now, every cultivator in Phungrei still remembered the stench of blood and the screams that followed those four Saberfangs.
At the time, even the cities neighbouring Phungrei City had lived in a haze of fear, each citizen wondering if they would be next to vanish beneath those claws.
After all, the damage the city took was nothing to be scoffed at.
The best city to live in within the northern region instantly went down to the least desired place to live in after that.
And then, just as suddenly, the beasts had vanished. No one saw them again. Whispers faded into uneasy silence.
