Yan Hui turned her head and shot him a glance: "Still alive?"

The moonlight swirled around her, revealing the clear outline of her face. Tian Yao gazed into her moonlit eyes. For a moment, he forgot to respond.

Yan Hui frowned. She swung the peach wood jian back and whacked Tian Yao on the forehead with it. He was startled and only heard Yan Hui dismissively say: "If you're dead, I'm not going to try to save you."

Tian Yao was stunned for awhile. He foolishly held his slightly aching forehead. Suddenly, he emitted a deep and soft laugh.

Yan Hui knitted her eyebrows: "What are you laughing at? Did I hit you too hard and knocked the sense out of you?"

Tian Yao covered his forehead and softly chuckled for a long time: "This is the first time I've met someone like you."

She clearly left him, yet she returned with no regard to the danger. In the midst of his despair, in the midst of adversity, she saved him......

The most miraculous part was her actions had undoubtedly stunned him, but she didn't know it herself.

"What a bunch of nonsense." Yan Hui looked back in front of her. Her eyes focused on the ox-headed demon that she had swept back ten meters. Back then, she didn't hold back any her magic. That's why the ox-headed demon was still dizzily shaking its head.

In the dark forest behind the ox-headed demon, there were black shadows scurrying back and forth, seizing the two up. Because of Yan Hui's power when she knocked them back, they didn't dare to rashly advance. Further back in the forest, there was more rustling sounds in the vegetation. It was clear more demons laid in wait for an opening.

All around Yan Hui and Tian Yao were the demons' murderous auras. Yan Hui tightly gripped her peach wood jian. Her expression was solemn.

These past few days were filled with action. Although her magic had recovered, she hadn't been able to keep much in reserve. It was enough to deal with one demon, but if they were to be attacked by a group of demons, her magic wouldn't be enough to last for long.

Today's plan would have to be tricking the group of demons into retreating.

Yan Hui focused her mind and concentrated magic in her dantian. She opened her mouth and said: "I'm from Chen Xing Mountain. You demons dared to enter the Central Plains and commit crimes. Are you tired of living?"
