The roar of tigers and the cry of dragons echoed throughout Longhu Mountain. According to An Qianshan, the reason why Longhu Mountain was named after them was because there were two great demonic beasts, a dragon and a tiger, in the area. Legend has it that they could fly to the sky and go underground, and that the strongest human in the world had once fallen under their claws.
This time, Gu Liyan and An Qianshan risked everything to ask these two powerful figures, who could be called beast gods, for help.
On Xiaoqing's back, Gu Liyan and An Qianshan traveled smoothly without any obstacles.
"There are still three hours until dawn. Will we make it in time?" An Qianshan felt a little anxious.
Gu Liyan gritted her teeth and said seriously:
"Don't worry, even if it's too late, I will go to save Xiaobai myself!"
An Qianshan sighed, "Although you are stronger than me now, you are only at the third level of Enlightenment. For those enemies, you are far from enough on your own!"
Gu Liyan spoke with a solemn expression, "You don't need to worry. Even without anyone else's help, I can save Xiaobai on my own. But what I want to save even more is the world Xiaobai lives in. I don't want her hometown to become a world controlled by others..."
Gu Liyan lowered his eyes slightly and thought to himself, "That's right, even if I fail, I will still give this world a perfect ending!"
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianshan felt a sense of admiration, but due to his status, he did not inquire further.
The two exchanged a few words, but then ran out of things to say, until Xiaoqing put them down and said something to Gu Liyan...
"Thank you, Xiaoqing. Take good care of yourself. Things will be very chaotic outside during this time, so please don't leave Longhu Mountain." Gu Liyan patted Xiaoqing's head and spoke gently.
Xiao Qing flicked its tongue affectionately, nuzzled Gu Liyan with its head, and then turned and left.
"What did it just say to you?" An Qianshan asked, frowning and walking forward with some curiosity.
"She said those two divine beast masters have been in a bad mood lately, and warned me to be careful, and also..." Gu Liyan looked at An Qianshan at this point—
Be careful of the human race, Gu Liyan!
After all, the demon race is a thorn in the side of the human race, and An Qianshan can't possibly help the demon race forever!
Seeing Gu Liyan looking at him warily, An Qianshan glared back and said, "What do you mean? I, An Qianshan, am a powerful and ruthless man. How could I do something so treacherous!"
Gu Liyan waved his hand awkwardly, "No, no, I just thought you looked really handsome under the mask, and I was stunned. Don't mind it!"
Is he handsome?
Yeah, right!
Is there anyone in this world more handsome than Gu Liyan?
An Qianshan spat without hesitation, "Pah! Bullshit! You'd be lucky to believe that!"
Gu Liyan chuckled and dared not say anything more. "Let's hurry up and find the two Beast Gods."
Longhu Mountain is a vast territory, guarded by two great beast gods. It is the largest demon territory, and also the most dangerous.
Everyone who appears here is covered in blood, some from fellow humans, and some from demon beasts. It is rare to find a human like Gu Liyan who is so spotless when traversing Longhu Mountain!
"Mythical Beast! Where are you?"
"Lord Beast God!"
"A monster!"
...
Gu Liyan called out, but there was no response, so he simply shortened it to three words.
An Qianshan closed his eyes to rest, the night making this middle-aged human somewhat tired, and he dozed off.
Gu Liyan was pacing anxiously. "There are only three hours left until dawn. The sacrificial ceremony will begin at noon when life force is at its peak. If we can't find them before dawn, we must rush back and forcibly take Xiao Bai away!"
Looking at the pitch-black night, Gu Liyan felt fear and some resentment, but mostly she was driven by a crazy inner desire to make a choice.
Gu Liyan's expression changed, and he suddenly leaped up, flipping his hand to take out a peach blossom fan. "Since you refuse to do me the honor, I have no choice but to force you two out!"
After saying that, Gu Liyan vigorously fanned the peach blossom fan, and a strong wind suddenly emerged. The raging wind was like a storm, leaving nothing but barren land in its wake.
An Qianshan was startled by Gu Liyan's actions and almost got blown away. He was about to start cursing, "Gu Liyan, you..."
An Qianshan, who was about to speak up to stop him, suddenly remembered something and immediately stopped himself, as if he had sensed the strange atmosphere in the air...
"Who is it?!" A furious roar, like that of a tiger, echoed through the valley.
This roar startled Gu Liyan so much that he almost threw his peach blossom fan away. Gu Liyan immediately spoke with a solemn expression, "I am Gu Liyan. I have something to discuss with the two divine beasts. I hope the divine beasts will forgive me for resorting to such a desperate measure!"
"The human race these days is becoming more and more ignorant of the rules. Not only do they want to cause bloodshed, but they also want to disturb my meditation!" A dragon's roar followed the tiger's roar.
As soon as he finished speaking, two streaks of light suddenly shot out from two directions and landed directly in front of Gu Liyan.
An Qianshan looked at the people about to emerge with a wary expression, while Gu Liyan also looked on nervously, wondering what these two peerless demons, who were unaware of the true nature of Mount Lu, looked like.
The light faded, and two figures appeared before them, but—
Contrary to expectations, it had little to do with its enormous size, and there was no majestic expression whatsoever. Instead, there were two small animals, each about the size of a palm, on the left resembling seven parts cat and three parts tiger, and on the right seven parts lizard and three parts snake.
Gu Liyan looked completely bewildered.
An Qianshan's lips twitched involuntarily, and he couldn't help but ask Gu Liyan:
"These are the two powerful demonic beasts from Longhu Mountain? Are you kidding me?!"
