By the time they all rushed into the courtyard, they instantly saw a gigantic colossal creature that was emanating a massive power.

Not only that, it let out roars and even emitted gusts of sinister wind that directly lifted the roof tiles into the air.

The tremendous force was enough to make it impossible for anyone to stand steady, and in an instant, those who charged in were blown off their feet.

This shocked them greatly, but apart from the shock, fear was the most predominant feeling.

Indeed, at this moment, they were almost scared to death; it was an experience unlike any they had before.

Before this, let alone witnessing something like this, they barely dared even to imagine it.

What scared them more was that the thing suddenly rose into the air.

Indeed, it flew, and it flew higher and higher, easily exceeding the height of the houses; such a phenomenon was extraordinarily shocking and utterly unfathomable.

They couldn’t even begin to comprehend what was happening, nor how the thing managed to do this.

Furthermore, when they looked up at the giant creature, they saw vague human figures appear within its circular transparent opening, and those figures were surprisingly familiar to them, being people from the mansion.

How could they not be terrified, how could they not be shocked, how could they not be frightened?

Not just them, even the household servants inside the house were overwhelmingly shocked as they stared at the enormous thing above.

Those with smaller nerves were so frightened that they crouched into corners, trembling.

"What’s going on here? What on earth is that thing?"

"Oh my god, what is this? How could it be so giant and terrifying? No, let’s run away quickly."

"Run! Run! If we don’t run now, it’ll be too late."

"Good heavens. Is this a monster?"

In an instant, the entire scene descended into chaos, with everyone frantically running around in panic, including the generals who had stormed in, who were completely bewildered and didn’t dare to advance.

The only thing they could do at this point was to rapidly escape; as they rushed outside, the giant creature was already high in the sky, several meters up.

Not only them, but everyone in the Zhao Country Capital was looking up at this mysterious entity.

Though they felt fear, it was much less than that felt by the soldiers who had entered the courtyard, as they had witnessed the creature rise from the ground.

They had seen how giant the thing truly was, unlike now when it was in the air, and for those not aware of the details, they might simply think it was a large bird.

People might be astounded by the sound the creature made, but not overly surprised. After all, there are many birds capable of emitting loud cries.

Moreover, although the helicopter could create a gale,

the height of its flight now meant that those below could no longer feel the powerful airflow.

And the old man inside the helicopter, seeing his own slowly ascending into the sky, watched as the city below became small.

The people also became like ants, and only then did he finally exhale a long breath of relief.

To be honest, he feared those fellows might act recklessly; should they shoot at them with crossbows, his group might still suffer some harm.

Even though he knew Lin Yi’s methods were formidable and understood the object was Lin Yi’s Immortal Treasure, driven by Immortal Energy,

he wasn’t sure if it could withstand attacks from crossbows.

Now, his heart finally settled back into place.

Meanwhile, the chaos below continued.

Quickly rushing inside the mansion, they began searching privately; after a lot of searching, they were dumbfounded to find that all the family members had disappeared.

Only some attendant household servants remained.

Even if they dug everywhere, they made no progress, and seeing this, they knew things had gone wrong, immediately dashed into the Imperial City to report this to King Zhao.

When King Zhao heard these words, heard the reports, he instantly frowned and furiously slammed the table, yelling at them:

"Useless, all of you are useless, just a bunch of good-for-nothings, wine sacks, and food bags! How could so many of you guarding and they just ran away?

What are all of you doing?

Don’t bother fabricating excuses for me; do you think I’ll believe you?

A giant creature that can fly, do you think I’m a fool?

Now, other than birds, bring me another thing that can fly, and I’ll believe your nonsense.
