North City Gate.
Hai ascended to the top of the city wall that he had already successfully seized and looked at the defending army that had retreated into the barbican with contempt. "Not bad, retreat further to avoid injuring you by accident."
Yan Li obeyed and retreated several meters away.
"Then, let's begin!"
Hai laughed sinisterly and patted the monkey that was shining with golden light on his shoulder.
The monkey was psychic and immediately understood Hai's intention. It quickly ran to Yan Li's side and climbed onto his shoulder. It bared its teeth at him as if it was saying, "borrow my shoulder to stand on."
This monkey looked golden and majestic, but it was a little dirty.
Yan Li sniffled and frowned uncomfortably, but he couldn't just throw the beloved pet of the Beast King onto the ground. He shook his head and said, "Brother Monkey, you should take a bath."
"Zhi zhi!" The monkey seemed to be able to understand the human language and could hear the disdain in Yan Li's words, so it immediately cried out unhappily.
Yan Li naturally couldn't be bothered and carefully observed the Beast King. The latter took out a stick of incense from his Qiankun Pouch. It wasn't very long, but he immediately recognized it as the Evil Countenance Blood.
This item seemed to be able to increase the divine power of the Celestial Worshippers. To others, it was a poison, but to them, it was a miraculous medicine.
The Beast King didn't ignite the Evil Countenance Blood and directly stuffed it into his mouth to chew.
Yan Li couldn't help but take two steps back. Who knew if there was poison in his breath? It was hair-raising just looking at it.
The Beast King's body also underwent a hair-raising transformation. Pink spots appeared on his skin, and he even spat out pink gas as if he had indigestion.
Yan Li's retreat was very foresight.
The Beast King turned his head and looked over, smiling mysteriously. "Once you become an official member, you won't have to worry about the control of the Evil Countenance Blood. You'll realize that it's a good item that can allow you to ascend to Elysium!"
"I'm looking forward to it." Yan Li forced the corner of his mouth to move. His mind was filled with Yu Youwei's appearance before she died. She couldn't even be called a human anymore, but a monster that was barely put together.
"Come, my children!" The Beast King let out a deep roar, and a phantom image immediately soared from his body. It was the phantom of a giant beast.
Yan Li looked up and couldn't help but be shocked, "Chaos?"
The beast looked like a dog. It had long fur, four legs, and no eyes, mouth, ears, or nose. It didn't even have a head, and its body was flat. It didn't have a head or a tail, and it had four wings on its back. It looked very strange.
He had read in a book that the beast was named 'Chaos', which was the real name of the prime minister in the sea of stars. It was also a rare beast that only appeared once in hundreds of years.
According to the Dao Court's Star Gazing Chart, they could observe whether these true names had found a host or not.
The beast let out a deep roar from somewhere. It sounded soundless, but the sound waves in the air spread in all directions.
Yan Li did not feel uncomfortable, but the soldiers below covered their ears and fell into a frenzied state.
Not long after the sound waves were released, the ground suddenly rumbled and shook.
He turned around subconsciously. On the dark land, under the illumination of the cold moonlight, smoke and dust were stirred up all over the sky. It was as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping, or as if a black mudslide was approaching from afar, mightily surrounding the entire Luojing.
Star Fall Beasts, all Star Fall Beasts.
Yan Li finally saw clearly. What he saw were all Star Fall Beasts. There were "Human-Faced Beasts, Skeleton Scorpions, Ghost Bees, Illusion Banshees, Mountain Monsters, Frost Wolves …"
There were also many species that he had never heard of or seen before. He couldn't even name them.
How did they get here?
If they were "enslaved" from the various hunting grounds in the past three days, how did they hide from the guards and gather outside Luojing?
On the way here, he didn't see any Star Fall Beasts hiding.
The Fengtian Sect's methods were really shocking.
Just as he was thinking, a huge horde of beasts swarmed in from outside the city, drowning the dying soldiers. The beasts were not satisfied with this bit of blood and continued to rush into the city.
If the beasts were allowed to rush into the city, the number of casualties would be immeasurable.
Yan Li was indifferent, his expression cold.
The Beast King had been observing in the dark. He smiled and said, "When the beasts enter the city, many people will die. Destruction, destruction, death, despair, pain, and struggle. It will be a spectacular scene. If you see it once, you will never forget it." His attitude seemed to have changed subtly.
"Sounds good," Yan Li said with a smile.
"Do you know why it is unforgettable?" The Beast King waved at the golden monkey, and the latter returned to his shoulder with a squeak.
"Why?" Yan Li asked.
A cruel smile appeared on the Beast King's face. "That's because creating a living hell is like painting a masterpiece that has been passed down from generation to generation. Both are valuable treasures."
"Sir's taste is indeed unique." Yan Li said.
The Beast King smiled faintly. "Only by releasing yourself can you withstand the Evil Beauty Blood. Remember this."
At this moment, the beasts charging into the city were suddenly blocked. There was a great deal of chaos.
The two of them looked over and saw armored knights charging out from the alleys that extended in all directions. They converged on the main road and charged. Like a black knife, they easily tore the beast tide into pieces.
The mounts of these riders were all ferocious and tyrannical Horned Dragons. They were originally Starfall Beasts, but after being tamed, they were no less savage than before. They were ruthless enough to kill their own kind.
The neatly dressed regular army followed behind the dragon riders and cooperated well with each other to kill the beasts.
In a short while, the beasts that had charged into the city were all taken care of.
The leader led the dragon riders into the barbican and continued to kill the Star Fall Beasts.
"Living hell is good, but it is not easy to achieve." Yan Li said.
"There is no value in something that can be obtained too easily." The Beast King's expression darkened. He slowly raised his hand.
"Wait," Yan Li suddenly said.
"What?" The Beast King's gaze turned cold.
"Just a group of thieves. There is no need for sir to take action." Yan Li had already leapt down. He took out Leaving Cliff while in midair, and in an instant, sword rays fell down like willow branches.
Several dozen sword rays smashed the barbican until it was full of holes.
Three to five dragon riders were directly cut in half. The dragon riders' formation was immediately thrown into chaos, and they were temporarily suppressed by the wave of beasts.
"That is how it should be." The Beast King laughed loudly, and then shouted, "Yan Li, I have seen every bit of your contributions. This battle has great significance. Perform well."
Yan Li landed on the ground. Leaving Cliff's sword in a reverse grip, his figure elongated like a waterfall as he slashed past a dragon rider's head.
The dragon rider's head flew into the air, and the corner below it bit over.
He lowered his body and elbowed upwards, closing the dragon's jaw. Leaving Cliff pierced through the dragon's short neck.
The Horned Dragon let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground.
Yan Li pulled out his sword and flung away the blood. "Many thanks for your guidance, sir."
