"Tantai Qiuyue, I sincerely advise you not to go to the perilous Yin-Yang Mountain." The Marquis of Champions said solemnly, his tone full of concern and worry.
He tilted his head slightly, as if recalling the past, and continued, "The lives of myself and these hundreds of brothers in the Demon Suppression Army were all saved by Fang Han and Senior Xiang Wantang at the brink of death. I, Li Hong, dare not call myself a righteous gentleman, but I know the principle of repaying a drop of kindness with a spring of gratitude. If there is even a one in ten thousand chance that we can rescue Senior Fang Han and Senior Xiang Wantang from Yin Yang Mountain, I will definitely follow you without hesitation to fight against the demonic beasts on Yin Yang Mountain. However, the current situation is extremely bad. A beast tide has suddenly broken out in Yin Yang Mountain, and the densely packed demonic beasts are rampaging like a raging tide. What's even more terrifying is that there are also 'Huo Dou,' a beast king and beast emperor level beasts lurking among them. With our current strength, if we rush there rashly, we will not only fail to provide assistance, but will also become a burden and increase casualties."
“Champion Marquis, what you say makes perfect sense. That’s why you don’t need to go to Yin Yang Mountain together. I will take responsibility for this matter alone.”
Tantai Qiuyue's gaze was firm and her expression resolute, as if no difficulty could shake her determination.
After saying that, she mounted her horse without hesitation, pulled on the reins, and the horse neighed and galloped off towards Yin Yang Mountain, raising a cloud of dust.
"Commander-in-Chief! We are willing to go with you, to share life and death!"
Zhuge Yun, Sun Liren, and Xiao Yan shouted almost in unison, their eyes filled with loyalty and unwavering resolve.
They quickly spurred their horses, preparing to catch up with Tantai Qiuyue.
"You must not follow me!"
Tantai Qiuyue abruptly pulled on the reins, turned around, and shouted loudly, her voice echoing in the night sky: "You bear the heavy responsibility of protecting Tianyi City. As long as the 'Huodou' on Yin-Yang Mountain doesn't descend and wreak havoc, with your strength, you will surely be able to wipe out those scattered and fleeing demonic beasts one by one. This is an order, and you must not disobey!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she whipped the horse again, and it shot into the night like an arrow, quickly disappearing into the vast darkness.
"I never expected this woman to be such a devoted person. It's truly enviable that Fang Han has such deep affection for her."
Looking in the direction where Tantai Qiuyue disappeared, the Marquis of Champion couldn't help but sigh, a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"My lord, it seems there's a monstrous beast surging towards us from the west. We should take action."
Yang Xiao looked nervous and pointed to the west, hurriedly reminding him.
He was a master of the Divine Sense Realm. Although his strength was far inferior to Fang Han's extraordinary level, his divine sense power could still cover a considerable area, and he was keenly aware of the surrounding movements.
"Gentlemen! Follow me to slay the demonic beasts! Tonight, we will ensure that these beasts have nowhere to return and nowhere to hide!"
Champion Hou raised his arms and shouted, his voice booming and his momentum overwhelming.
He suddenly swung his sword and spurred his horse to charge like a tiger in the direction Yang Xiao pointed.
Soon, this allied force, composed of the Demon Suppression Division, the Demon Suppression Army, and the City Defense Army, clashed head-on with a group of demonic beasts. Instantly, shouts of battle shook the heavens and the earth, and the flashing of swords and spears marked the start of a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, halfway up the highest peak of Yin-Yang Mountain, the ferocious beasts "Huodou," swarming across the mountainside like mad wild animals, recklessly pounced on Fang Han and Xiang Wantang.
They bared their teeth and claws, emitting terrifying roars, as if they wanted to tear the two people in front of them to pieces.
On the ground, the corpses of the ferocious beast "Huodou" had piled up into a small mountain, the blood staining the earth red and emitting a pungent smell of blood.
However, these "monsters" seemed oblivious, continuing to pounce and kill relentlessly, their eyes filled with madness and bloodlust.
In particular, the four beast king-level "Huodou" beasts were like persistent ghosts, tightly clinging to Fang Han and Xiang Wantang, and launching fierce attacks continuously.
They are enormous and incredibly powerful; every attack they launch is like a tidal wave, terrifying to behold.
Of course, although the beast king-level "Huodou" possesses the strange ability to control human consciousness, the strength of their consciousness is not superior to that of Fang Han and Xiang Wantang.
If Fang Han and Xiang Wantang wanted to leave this dangerous place by flying on their swords, it wouldn't be difficult.
However, Fang Han and Xiang Wantang did not choose to do so. With a sense of responsibility and duty to all living beings, they were determined to stay in Yin Yang Mountain and completely exterminate these ferocious beasts, "Huo Dou," to prevent them from attacking innocent humans below the mountain and causing widespread suffering after leaving Yin Yang Mountain.
Time passed quietly, and soon an hour had gone by.
During this hour, Fang Han and Xiang Wantang fought a desperate battle with the ferocious beast, tirelessly wielding their weapons, each attack carrying immense power.
They killed tens of thousands of "Huodou," but the long and fierce battle also depleted their true energy, which was severely depleted.
Fang Han's condition is relatively better.
In his previous life, he had personally experienced an exceptionally ferocious beast tide, accumulating extremely rich experience in dealing with such a brutal environment of bloodshed and life-or-death struggle.
Moreover, he possesses a unique ability to absorb the mysterious and powerful Yin and Yang energies within Yin-Yang Mountain while engaging in a fierce hunt with demonic beasts, thereby replenishing his constantly depleted true energy.
However, even so, the rate at which true energy is replenished is still far slower than the rate at which it is depleted.
This is like a bucket with a big hole; no matter how much water is poured in, it keeps leaking out.
