They rushed out of the cave and saw a group of green-faced beasts jumping and screaming like monkeys surrounding them like an army.
After returning to the cave and explaining the situation, Tang Sanhua was shocked. "How, how can there be human-faced beasts here … It's fine if it's a mutated spider, but it's impossible for a human-faced beast to appear in China …"
"Human-faced beasts? That's appropriate. "Yan Li laughed.
Tang Sanghua said, "You've seen them before? Did you provoke them? "
"Before I came here, someone attacked me sneakily." Yan Li shrugged.
Tang Sanghua said anxiously, "Oh no, human-faced beasts are famous for holding grudges, and every group has a beast king. We're no match for them, let's run …" She struggled to stand up.
"Don't force yourself." Yan Li packed his bag and tied it around his neck. Then he held onto Tang Sanghua and tied the sword case on her back.
"You, you, I'm so badly injured …" Tang Sanghua felt wronged.
"Are you an idiot?" Yan Li rolled his eyes, squatted down, and patted her shoulder, "Come on."
"Ah!" Tang Sanghua finally reacted and blushed, "Oh."
She struggled to climb onto Yan Li's back, buried her head on his broad back, and took a deep sniff, "Yan Li, you smell delicious."
"Don't tell me you really have Desolate Man blood?"
Tang Sanghua didn't look fat, but she was definitely not light. Together with the swords, she weighed more than three hundred catties. For a Rank-4 martial artist, this was a bit too much.
Yan Li held Tang Sanghua with one hand and took out a mask from his bag with the other. He put it on and walked out of the cave.
When those human-faced beasts saw him come out, they howled and then parted like a tide. A three-zhang tall, mighty and majestic human-faced beast that was obviously the king of beasts walked out like a sovereign overlooking the world.
Beside it, there was a human-faced beast with a broken arm. It pointed at Yan Li with its broken limb and whimpered.
The king of beasts stared at Yan Li, stood up, clenched its claws into fists, and pounded its chest while roaring at Yan Li.
As if it was a signal to attack, the human-faced beasts swarmed up.
"Hold on tight!" Yan Li let out a low grunt. His vital Qi flowed through the meridians and nodes in his body. Boundless strength gushed out. He leaped up and grabbed onto a vine. Using all four limbs, he climbed up rapidly.
The human-faced beasts had long hands and legs, and were very good at climbing. They were faster than him. Fortunately, their attacks were full of flaws, and a few of them were not much of a threat.
From the corner of his eye, Yan Li had already caught a glimpse of this situation. He immediately stopped on the cliff. He grabbed the vine with one hand and pulled out his sword with the other, cutting down a few human-faced beasts.
He turned the sword, bit the hilt with his teeth, and continued to climb.
But Yan Li underestimated their tenacity. Especially after they saw blood, they became even crazier. He had only killed a few, but a dozen more rushed to the front. They fell from a higher place, and pounced at him with strange cries. It was really annoying.
"Yan Li, why did you get so many broken swords? They're so heavy!"
Although she was complaining, Tang Sanghua's movements were not at all ambiguous. She freed one hand to draw the sword, and with a backhand hook, she killed two human-faced beasts that were pouncing at her. Although she did not know swordsmanship, she did not need any swordsmanship to deal with the human-faced beasts. She could even use it as a knife.
"The cliff can't be exposed to the light." Yan Li replied in the midst of being busy.
Tang Sanhua was slightly startled, but she immediately understood, "In order to save me, he must have taken a huge risk. If his identity was exposed, then there would be no place for him in this vast China." Thinking of this, her heart instantly warmed up.
"Yan Li, if we can escape, I will definitely make it up to you."
"What?" Yan Li was busy with the human-faced beasts, and did not hear clearly.
"Nothing!" Tang Sanghua was a little shy. The sword in her hand, as if it had eyes, nailed another human-faced beast to the wall.
At this moment, the human-faced beasts were everywhere, and the two were hanging in the air with only one vine. It was not easy to protect themselves, let alone break out of the encirclement.
To make matters worse, the Beast King of the human-faced beasts could not help but jump up at this time. Its body was huge, but it was very flexible. The vines in its claws were like extensions of its arms. After a few swings, the distance between the two was very close.
"It's coming!" Tang Sanghua was a little panicked. She was hanging in the air, unlike on the ground. Without a foothold, how could she deal with that monster?
"Look over there." Yan Li suddenly pointed to the right side of the cliff.
Tang Sanghua followed his gaze and saw where Yan Li was pointing. There was a naturally formed plank road that led straight to the top of the cliff. Unfortunately, there was a huge rock in the shape of a stone beam halfway through, blocking the road.
"I'm going to swing over now. Hold on tight, don't let them disturb me."
Tang Sanghua was seriously injured, and she had to carry a heavy load. On one hand, she had to hold on to Yan Li, and on the other hand, she had to kill the human-faced beasts that were approaching. The task was really difficult.
She could only clench her teeth and say, "I'll try my best!"
Yan Li did not wait for her reply and began to move. He kicked a human-faced beast away, then forcefully kicked the cliff wall, grabbed the vine, and swung out.
The next moment, the Beast King's claws slammed heavily on the place where the two were originally. The mountain rocks cracked, and dust flew everywhere.
The Beast King's attack missed, so it roared angrily, grabbed a vine, and chased after them. Its speed was really frightening. In just two flashes, it was already very close. At this moment, the two were still in the air, pouncing on the next vine. It only needed to extend its claws slightly to slap them off the cliff.
A biting cold wind blew into her neck. Tang Sanghua vaguely saw the arrival of death. Even the sea of stars seemed to have sensed it and called out to her soul.
"Run, I can die without regrets!" Her face was full of determination. She let go of the hand that was holding on to Yan Li, and intended to turn around to take more damage from the Beast King.
But suddenly, her loosened hand was grabbed. Before she could react, Yan Li had already turned around, and brazenly faced the Beast King with his fine steel sword.
The fierce and valiant attack was miraculously blocked for a moment.
But the Beast King of the human-faced beasts had great strength. The fine steel sword could not withstand it and dented, breaking into several pieces amidst the violent tremors.
Yan Li suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. He lost consciousness, lost control of his body, and rapidly fell down.
"Yan Li, are you okay?" In the rapid fall, Tang Sanghua's voice could not be heard.
At this critical moment, the one who saved their lives was still the Beast King.
Seeing that its prey had been shot down, the Beast King proudly howled, showing off its strength to its underlings.
It was this howl that awakened Yan Li from his unconsciousness. It only took him a moment to understand the situation, and he grabbed the nearest old vine with both hands. The combined weight of the two caused his palms to violently rub against the old vine, and as soon as he clenched his fists, he was dripping with blood.
Even so, it could only slow down the speed of their fall. Suddenly, with a "bang", the two fell to the ground, sprawling on their backs.
When Tang Sanghua looked closely, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the place where the two fell happened to be the plank road.
"Let's go!" Yan Li carried Tang Sanghua on his back and ran with all his might.
The Beast King also realized that its prey was not dead, and was very angry. It swung the old vine and chased after them. The flea-like human-faced beasts that covered the mountains and plains also rushed over.
Yan Li and Tang Sanghua fled to the front of the huge rock, but the road ahead was blocked. At this moment, there were human-faced beasts above them, and the road below was blocked by the huge rock. There was no way out, unless they jumped off the cliff. That was no different from suicide.
"Stay here!" He put Tang Sanghua down and rushed towards the Beast King.
"Yan Li, don't do anything stupid!" Tang Sanghua turned pale with fright.
The Beast King had just landed on the plank road. Seeing that its prey did not escape but instead attacked it, it felt that its dignity was being challenged, and let out an earth-shattering roar towards Yan Li.
Just the shockwave alone almost overturned Yan Li. His reckless action made it seem like he had lost his mind.
"Idiot, did you not drink milk? That's all you've got."
Yan Li grinned and continued to charge forward. He charged at the Beast King as if he did not care about his life.
The Beast King was intelligent. Although it could not understand Yan Li's words, it could feel Yan Li's malice. It was so angry that it used its head to charge forward without any fancy moves.
Yan Li suddenly grasped something in the air, and Leaving Cliff appeared. He gritted his teeth and met the attack with his scabbard.
Bang!
After a short and rapid sound, Yan Li flew back like a kite with a broken string.
"Yan Li!" Tang Sanghua cried out in shock. She struggled to stand up and tried to catch him.
"Get out of the way!" Unexpectedly, Yan Li, who was like a corpse in the air, suddenly came to life.
Tang Sanhua was startled. Then she remembered that Yan Li had the Sword Concealment Formula to protect his body. Although the collision was fierce, she knew the special effect of the Cliff of Separation, which could absorb a large amount of external force. Therefore, it was not as good as the first blow.
Thinking of this, she already knew what Yan Li wanted to do. She quickly got out of the way.
Leaving Cliff pressed on its waist, its right hand holding the sword. It closed its eyes and suddenly pulled out the sword when it neared the huge rock.
Clang!
The sword hummed like a song, drawing a deep and cold trajectory. The huge rock actually broke in the middle and fell towards the bottom of the cliff.
"Go!" Yan Li kept Leaving Cliff and carried Tang Sanghua on his back. He crossed the obstacle and sprinted towards the top of the cliff.
The army of human-faced beasts chased relentlessly, accompanied by the Beast King's wild roar. Unfortunately, they were too far away this time. Even the Beast King couldn't catch up in time.
They were almost at the top of the cliff. Although they couldn't get out of this situation, it made them feel more at ease to have their feet on the ground. As long as they calmed down, there would be a way.
"That's a Star Fallen Beast equivalent to an Immaculate State …"
"What are you talking about?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to compliment you. Yan Li, you're really amazing."
"What you see is just the tip of the iceberg."
"Shameless," Tang Sanghua said coquettishly.
The corner of Yan Li's mouth rose slightly. He was about to say something, but he suddenly stopped. At this moment, the two of them were only about ten steps away from the top of the cliff. They could already see the situation there.
On the other side of the cliff, there was actually a slope, and a few human heads emerged from the horizon, those faces were actually not unfamiliar to him.
"It's Lan Yu!" Tang Sanghua clenched her teeth.
