Chapter 1515 - 1516: Overwhelming Strength
Yang Fei looked up and saw that the dozen or so black dots had turned into monstrous birds the size of mills, screeching sharply as they dove down, their cries piercingly loud.
Yang Fei was no stranger to these monstrous birds.
Their iron claws were like hooks, wielding formidable destructive power, and their blood was particularly nourishing.
However, the real threat to the two did not come from these fierce birds.
Yang Fei noticed that on each bird's back was mounted a woman.
Draped in black cloaks, they concealed their slender figures.
Every face wore a Heart Moon Fox silver mask, revealing half of a graceful and handsome profile.
Each one held a bow, and sharp arrows were already nocked and aimed at Yang Fei and his companion.
The girl's face changed dramatically: "Not good, this time they've dispatched the Griffin Knights, we can't escape."
Yang Fei was puzzled, judging by the attire, the attackers and the girl at his side were evidently from the same group.
Reinforcements had arrived, yet the girl was not pleased, instead, she appeared terrified; what was the reason?
Suddenly, the girl pushed Yang Fei heavily.
"You better leave. Outsiders in our hands might survive, but if you fall into their hands, your death will be miserable beyond words."
In his lifetime, Yang Fei had never relied on a woman for cover, and upon hearing this, he burst into laughter.
"What do you take the young master for? Just a bunch of bird-men, not enough to make the young master flee in panic."
"Pft, you are the bird-man. If it weren't for the Spider Queen's sake, I wouldn't care about your life or death."
While they were debating, a dozen griffins had already reached above them, circling tightly.
The girl gave Yang Fei a sideways glance and sighed deeply.
"Now, it's impossible for you to leave, let's fight with all we have."
As she finished speaking, she drew two daggers, held them in reverse, standing back to back with Yang Fei, preparing for combat.
Yang Fei was very curious: "Aren't they your clansmen?"
The girl grunted softly: "Who are clansmen with them?"
"The Night Clan is divided into four divisions, my Phantom Division is quite different from their Shadow Division."
Yang Fei was enlightened, and gave a comment that wasn't too flattering nor too dismissive.
"No wonder the women in the Shadow Division are ugly, unlike your division, looking so pretty."
At this point, Yang Fei suddenly realized he didn't know the girl's name.
He asked with a smile: "By the way, I don't know your name yet?"
The girl looked at Yang Fei, biting her lip.
"The names of Night Clansmen can't be casually told to outsiders."
"But if you could lead our Night Clan to the sunlit lands, you would be my master, and it wouldn't matter to tell you."
Saying this, she slowly and cautiously said: "My name is Ye Shengge."
Yang Fei nodded, and praised her with a smile.
"What a nice name, sounds like a pretty girl's name just by hearing it."
Ye Shengge glared at him.
"In our place, masters don't say such things casually to maids."
Yang Fei shrugged indifferently.
"Does our relationship have to be master and slave? We can be friends, wouldn't it be nice to chat about the world?"
Ye Shengge immediately widened her eyes.
"You are already a True Martial Master, how could you befriend a Gangjin Master like me? What tricky intentions are you harbouring?"
Yang Fei felt a headache, in such a place ruled by the law of the jungle, talking to Ye Shengge about equality and world harmony clearly wouldn't work.
The two lowered their voices, Yang Fei showing a carefree look.
Ye Shengge, however, nervously watched the low-flying Griffin Knights circling them, preparing for combat.
The leading Griffin Knight seemed to sense Yang Fei's disdain, letting out a sharp, prolonged howl.
A dozen Griffin Knights bent their bows, arrows aligning in a swift motion aimed at the duo.
Ye Shengge's face turned somewhat pale, gently tugging Yang Fei's sleeve.
"The Twin Shadow Arrows of the Griffin Knights are very powerful, be careful yourself."
Yang Fei chuckled, gesturing to Ye Shengge to cover her ears.
Ye Shengge widened her eyes, not understanding Yang Fei's intention, but she still plugged her ears.
Yang Fei suddenly noticed Ye Shengge's ears were lovely, slightly pointed, the skin delicate, transparent enough to see capillaries, with faint fuzz.
Ye Shengge found Yang Fei's eyes fixated on her ears, immediately feeling shy, covering her ears tightly.
Yang Fei smiled, his expression suddenly turning extremely serious.
"Keep your ears covered, don't let go!"
While they talked, the Griffin Knights came closer, bows drawn, ready to release.
"Roar!"
Yang Fei abruptly exploded with thunderous sound, like a blast, rolling out with violent ferocity.
"Tiger Roar!"
Since breaking through the True Martial Realm, Yang Fei's Nine Extremes reached a greater height.
This Tiger Roar released the fierce qi and ferocity of ancient beasts.
The entire space seemed as if dozens of thunderclaps exploded, shaking the entire valley as if trembling.
Ye Shengge covered her ears, but her body was still unstable from the massive sound wave, her eardrums stung as if by needle, causing intense pain.
In the low air, the wind and clouds surged, causing disorder among the Griffin Knights.
The griffins frightened by Yang Fei's Tiger Slaughter Qi flew uncontrollably towards the high sky.
Yang Fei's Tiger Extreme had reached the True Martial Realm, posing supreme danger to the griffins as top predators in the food chain.
Such absolute strength suppression rendered the Griffin Knights' control futile.
Ye Shengge barely woke from the shock, casting a strange look towards Yang Fei.
"The Griffin Knights are the most elite force of the Shadow division, I never expected you could repel them this way."
Yang Fei looked around triumphantly, proud of his success.
"Look at my skills and style, back then Zhang Yide's roar breaking Dangyang Bridge was just like this."
Ye Shengge lightly spat, her eyes shimmering.
"Are all Earth humans as shameless as you?"
Yang Fei laughed heartily.
He was about to tease Ye Shengge, when shadows began leaping nimbly across the layer upon layer of disks above, weapons gleaming coldly, rushing towards them.
Ye Shengge exclaimed: "Damn, they're coming again."
Yang Fei sneered: "Perfect timing, I can test my sword on them."
As he finished speaking, he drew his Heavy Sword of the Destroyed Army, True Yuan Energy infused into the blade, making the longsword hum as if singing the Dragon's Chant.
Ye Shengge glanced at Yang Fei, suddenly spreading her arms to block his way.
"Don't act yet, let me talk to them."
Ye Shengge finished speaking, suddenly emitting a long howl, clear and gentle echoing.
About a dozen shadows appeared in the distance.
A woman with a gold arrow embroidered on her cloak stopped the group.
The woman was clearly the leader, stepping forward from the crowd, looking at Ye Shengge indifferently.
"Ye Shengge, are you ready to be the Shadow Division's inside agent?"
