The Big Rhinoceros Deer looked over and saw it was the Black Tiger climbing up, feeling slightly disappointed.
If it were his older brother, the Yellow Big Tiger, he could have offered some assistance. This little Black Tiger was no match for these two human cultivators.
The Black Tiger hadn't transformed back then, so Yue Wen and Zhao Xing'er didn't recognize it at first glance.
The Black Tiger had lost consciousness for a few seconds when it was hit while clawing at the vehicle. It actually recovered quickly, but seeing that it was surrounded by the Human Race, it didn't dare to move. It only relaxed when it was thrown into this simulated Wasteland.
However, danger lurked everywhere, with Demonic Beasts and cultivators all around, so it still didn't dare to let its guard down. It wasn't until it heard the calls of the Rhinoceros Deer brothers that it finally rushed over.
No matter how bad-tempered these two brothers were, they were strong enough, and it should be able to protect itself.
But its joy didn't last long. When it saw Zhao Xing'er, it was only dazed for a second. Although she was wearing a mask, her figure, posture, and the red glow that flickered in her eyes were the same as that terrifying woman from that day.
It looked at Zhao Xing'er, then turned to look at Yue Wen over there, and the sense of familiarity immediately returned.
"It's these two!" the Black Tiger shouted. "They destroyed the Tiger Head Gang and killed three of my brothers! Hurry up and attack!"
"Don't talk nonsense," the Second Rhinoceros Deer quickly stopped him. "The man behind you is indeed our target, but how could this young lady be the one?"
He was truly terrified of Zhao Xing'er smashing him with her hammer.
He wished he had nothing to do with this strange woman wearing a mask with bulging eyes.
The Black Tiger pointed at Zhao Xing'er and said, "I absolutely cannot be mistaken. It was she who chopped me with a big saber, stabbed me with a spear, and even blasted me with a rocket launcher! I'd recognize her even if she turned to ash!"
"Then you've mistaken the person," the Second Rhinoceros Deer immediately said. "This young lady's weapon is a hammer."
"Are you talking about these?" Zhao Xing'er's Storage Magic Artifact was a jade bracelet on her right hand. With a flip of her wrist, she revealed the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear, and the rocket launcher, among other cold and hot weapons.
"See, she's shown them! She hired you to kill her!" the Black Tiger urged anxiously.
"It's normal to have the same everyday items," the Big Rhinoceros Deer shook its head. "You're being too sensitive."
"Do you even understand human language? Do you know what 'everyday' means?" the Black Tiger roared. "Which of these things is considered everyday?"
"Oh—" Zhao Xing'er said, "I understand now. You're the Black Tiger Demon who escaped from the Tiger Head Gang, and these two foolish rhinos are working with you."
"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? She admitted it!" the Black Tiger glared.
"He keeps calling you that, he's just being difficult," the Second Rhinoceros Deer said loudly.
"He's calling you foolish rhinos too!" the Black Tiger roared. "Aren't you guys supposed to have bad tempers? Aren't 'foolish rhinos' your taboo words?"
"Don't spout nonsense, we rhinos are the best friends of humans," the Big Rhinoceros Deer said with a friendly smile.
Meanwhile, the Second Rhinoceros Deer raised a hammer behind the Black Tiger and hit it with a clang. "You're the foolish one!"
Zhao Xing'er stood with her arms crossed. "Are you two foolish rhinos also assassins?"
"Hehe," the Big Rhinoceros Deer and the Second Rhinoceros Deer nodded with smiles. "Just trying to make a living."
The Black Tiger's already battered head gained a new bump. It squatted on the ground, holding its head, on the verge of tears. "You're just hitting me!"
When Yue Wen saw the Black Tiger appear, he realized something was wrong.
The reason these two unfamiliar rhino demons were so powerful wasn't a mistake by the production crew, but because they were hired helpers from the Tiger Demon!
Even though they seemed meek now, he still had to remain vigilant. These Demonic Beasts from the Wasteland never lost their ferocity.
So, he stepped forward and said, "No more talk. Since they've come looking for us, let's cut the weeds and eliminate the roots."
Just as he was about to attack with Zhao Xing'er, rustling sounds came from below the forest. A charred, mottled Tiger Demon emerged – it was the Yellow Big Tiger that had escaped from the Tiger Head Gang that day.
Like his younger brother, the Black Tiger, he had heard the calls of the Rhinoceros Deer brothers and rushed over. However, he had taken some time to deal with a strange human who had actively sought a fight along the way.
"Big Brother!" the Black Tiger cried and ran to hug his brother's leg. "They're all bullying me!"
"What's going on?" The Black Tiger scanned his surroundings and realized that all the demons on his side and the two target humans were present. He was a bit slow to react.
It was so sudden.
"Hehe," the Big Rhinoceros Deer chuckled sheepishly. "The enemy was too strong, so we temporarily retreated. Now that you're here, we can make our move."
Although neither of them could win against the two of them alone, the Yellow Big Tiger was, after all, a powerful Tiger Demon and had mastered a martial arts technique.
The Black Tiger had a loud voice and could cheer them on.
With three against one, they might still stand a chance against these two humans!
So, as soon as the Yellow Big Tiger arrived, the Rhinoceros Deer brothers immediately bared their fangs and looked menacingly at Zhao Xing'er, the woman who had just called them foolish rhinos several times.
Now they could be angry with her again!
"Oh," Zhao Xing'er smirked. "You're finally showing your teeth."
The situation finally became clear. The Yellow Big Tiger brothers, seeking revenge, had hired two other Demonic Beasts and, through some unknown means, had tracked them into this place.
By sheer coincidence, they had actually found them.
Two against four.
Yue Wen could now choose to directly inform the director team via his earpiece about the dangerous situation, with powerful external Demonic Beasts mixed in, and ask them to quickly send reinforcements.
This was the safest option.
This way, the livestream would be affected, possibly even stopped. His happy monster-slaying journey would also end. If experts from the production crew were sent, he definitely wouldn't get to kill the biggest Demonic Beasts.
No risk, no reward.
Another option was for him and Zhao Xing'er to deal with the four Demonic Beasts in front of them together.
They could get the Demon Suppressing Coins, the livestream wouldn't be affected, and they could continue hunting other Demonic Beasts afterward.
High risk, high reward.
Weighing his options, he asked Zhao Xing'er, "Little Zhao, how many of these can you handle by yourself?"
He planned to gauge Zhao Xing'er's strength before making a decision.
Zhao Xing'er confidently replied, "I can handle five by myself."
"Then I'll..." Yue Wen was about to act with peace of mind when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned and shouted, "Don't count me in!"
There were only four Demonic Beasts here. If she said she could handle five, she must have included herself!
Always trying to take down the boss, huh?
"Not counting me," Zhao Xing'er quickly said. "Then it's even simpler. I can handle all four of them."
"Then let's do it!"
Yue Wen immediately made his decision. He wouldn't notify the Wangyou Media people and would deal with these four Demonic Beasts himself with Zhao Xing'er. With a clear shout, he unleashed his Sword Control Art. A silver light whistled out, heading straight for the weakest Demonic Beast, the Black Tiger!
When outnumbered, one must quickly eliminate the enemy's fighting strength.
The easiest one to kill was naturally this Black Tiger.
"Roar--"
Yellow Big Tiger roared, his fists crackling with lightning as he charged forward to protect his brother, his fist striking the sword light diagonally.
Boom!
Sword energy and arcs of electricity exploded, the blast radius covering dozens of meters. Although the Black Tiger wasn't at the center of the explosion, it was still sent flying several meters and knocked to the ground by the deadly sword energy.
The Flying Sword returned, and Yellow Big Tiger also retreated, his fists trembling uncontrollably, covered in bloody marks.
He discovered something terrifying. It had only been a week since the battle with the Tiger Head Gang, and this Human Race cultivator was clearly stronger than last time!
What kind of terrifying progress is this?
The most feared thing had happened after all. This parentless human truly had an overpowered leveling speed!
On the other side, the Rhinoceros Deer brothers simultaneously drew their weapons and charged at Zhao Xing'er.
Zhao Xing'er still swung her Drum Beating Golden Hammer. Her slender body spun with the massive hammer, completing circle after circle. The third circle began to rumble.
The two brothers retreated simultaneously.
Too terrifying!
The dreadlocked lion hadn't lied. The two brothers had indeed successfully ambushed and killed an injured Gang Realm expert in the Wasteland back then.
However, it was entirely due to their familiarity with the terrain, their suicidal fighting spirit, and the fact that the opponent wasn't particularly skilled in combat. Only after a successful sneak attack did they manage to withstand a series of counterattacks from the expert and tear him to death.
Zhao Xing'er wasn't as skilled in Supernatural Powers or arcane arts as that Gang Realm cultivator. But purely in terms of raw power, was the force of her hammer blow even greater than a Fourth Realm cultivator's attack?
It felt like smashing it on the ground could shake the entire mountain!
This thought was quickly verified. After swinging the hammer several times and seeing that the Rhinoceros Deer brothers weren't charging at her, Zhao Xing'er simply let go and threw the Drum Beating Golden Hammer like a projectile!
A faint red glow enveloped the spinning giant hammer as it crashed down onto the ground.
Rumble--
The earth shook violently, creating huge ripples that swept across the mountainside. The four Demonic Beasts, along with Yue Wen beside them, were all thrown off balance.
It took a full tens of seconds before the dust settled.
Second Rhinoceros Deer was hanging from a tree branch. Looking up, it found Black Tiger hanging next to it and said groggily, "I told you you misidentified him, you should have just admitted it. See? You got it right this time, how terrifying!"
"Cough... cough..."
Yellow Big Tiger emerged from the dust below, his body covered in a mixture of dust and blood, his muscles bulging with a rough ferocity.
"Human Race, you are indeed strong, but today, someone must pay the price for my brother's death!" His tiger eyes also glowed crimson, flashing with bone-chilling hatred. "You cannot imagine the resolve a vengeful Fierce Tiger possesses."
As he spoke these words, his entire body was engulfed in arcs of electricity. Countless lightning bolts began to corrode his body, and the aura of his tiger form grew stronger and stronger, shooting straight into the sky in an instant!
Seeing this, Black Tiger seemed to recall something and shouted, "Big Brother, are you going to use that move? You can't!"
But Yellow Big Tiger ignored him.
In an instant, a wild, foul wind swept across the mountainside!
