Ye Tianfan seemed to understand.
Ye Tianfan had actually discerned why this creature from beyond the wall, who had remained hidden, would expose itself, despite being pregnant, in order to protect her male partner.
However, Ye Tianfan also knew that, despite possibly encountering some heartwarming moments, their positions were different. Ye Tianfan believed that even the offspring of this creature from beyond the wall still belonged to the creatures from outside the wall.
Don't talk about children being innocent, as for them, even those children possess the abilities to kill the cultivators within the walls.
Therefore, although Ye Tianfan felt that their love story was touching and worthy of tears, he still had to kill them, as Ye Tianfan had already stated that their positions were different.
So, no matter how moved Ye Tianfan was by their love story, he still had to kill when necessary.
If they were demon beasts from within the wall, Ye Tianfan might have spared them, but they were not demon beasts from within the wall; they were creatures from beyond the wall.
Creatures from beyond the wall lack thought, knowing only slaughter. Though Ye Tianfan didn't understand how these two creatures knew to protect each other, it was not a reason to spare them.
Everyone knew that any creature from beyond the wall could cause widespread slaughter if let inside the wall.
Moreover, with so many people present, Ye Tianfan had even less reason to spare them. If it were just him there, he might have spared them due to the difference in strength.
But with nearly everyone present, Ye Tianfan had no reason to spare them, and though he was not rigid, circumstances dictated these creatures could not be spared.
Thus, Ye Tianfan prepared himself, knowing he wouldn't be the one to take action due to his comparatively weaker strength. Someone else would strike.
Yet Ye Tianfan remained vigilant, fearing the creature from beyond the wall might launch a sudden attack, as nobody knew how fast these creatures could be. The pregnant dog-like creature appeared instantly before the male, catching Ye Tianfan off guard.
Even the esteemed Tai Chu Zhenren didn't react in time.
Ye Tianfan stayed alert, fearing a sudden attack from the creature, as he would have no means to defend against such a swift assault. At that speed, he might only realize it once his body is already pierced.
Everyone else remained vigilant, ensuring they utilized pure spiritual power. They could clearly see the pregnant female creature, but felt no compassion, only cold observation.
If it had been a demon beast, they might have felt sympathy, but for creatures from beyond the wall, they viewed them as demons, devoid of any compassion. It's not due to cruelty, but understanding of their deadly nature, thus treating them with cold indifference.
Even newborn creatures from beyond the wall instinctively engage in slaughter, with a newborn potentially devouring its mother, even the father, moments after birth.
Ye Tianfan was puzzled why such devouring happens among the larger creatures, perhaps one of the few maternal instincts they possess.
Of course, this was just Ye Tianfan's speculation as he harbored great disdain for the two creatures.
It's not based on appearance, but on the countless killings and devourings that shape each creature from beyond the wall.
Don't underestimate the small creature simply because it's unassuming or yet unborn; once everyone attacks the mother, the offspring inside will devour her for survival, then flee.
Showing mercy to this young creature is irresponsibility to your own life, as it may consume the mother and then prey on others before escaping, driven by a need for nutrition while still unborn.
The mother alone couldn't sustain it outside; even surrounded by demonic qi and evil qi, such negative auras aren't concentrated enough for survival.
To survive, merely devouring the mother isn't enough; it also needs to consume the father, but this would merely stave off death. If it wished to truly survive, consumption was imperative, yet anyone encountering such a young creature doomed it to death.
The creature was too weak, and for safe survival, those present offered abundant nourishment. Many, like Ye Tianfan, had strength comparable to the newborn creature, though only spiritual power akin to Ye Tianfan's level, as he could surpass several levels.
Thus, those like Yun Tian and other masters would become this young creature's sustenance if it managed to capture them, despite the presence of Tai Chu Zhenren watching over them, whereas those from other sects weren't under Tai Chu Zhenren's eye. If Tai Chu Zhenren couldn't save them, the creature's inherited speed would surely enable escape.
This young creature might devour those it grabbed during its escape, or wait until safe before doing so, but such future actions remained uncertain.
However, those people had little chance of survival.
