In the past, the Guiche had ten heads and was still no match for the Dafeng, let alone now with only nine heads remaining. Yet it showed not a shred of cowardice, the reason being that it had long ago conspired with the Da'e, who had promised to lend a helping hand at the crucial moment.
At this thought, the Guiche let out a series of piercing howls in the direction where the Da'e stood—three short and one long. This was the signal it had agreed upon with the Da'e.
The Da'e, however, was in no rush to meddle. It had long harbored plans to eliminate the Dafeng, merely fretting over a lack of suitable opportunity. Having finally seized the chance now, it understood all too well that such an opportunity must not be missed, for it would never come again. Yet the greater the occasion, the more important it was to remain composed and strike with absolute certainty.
