The beastmen above the pit received the order, extending their sharp claws to sever the vine.
Fortunately, Qiao Xixi was prepared. She had already shifted into her beast form, her claws digging into the stone wall to steady herself.
"Mother, I'm going up to deal with them."
Qiao Lie suddenly shifted into his beast form and shot past Qiao Xixi so quickly she didn't even have time to stop him.
"Qiao Lie, you have to be careful!"
Qiao Lie moved with incredible speed, darting among the beastmen in the blink of an eye to stop them from throwing stones at Qiao Xixi.
"A mere snake cub dares to act so brazenly before us? You're courting death!"
The other male Golden Lions roared and pounced on Qiao Lie.
Seeing Qiao Lie draw the beastmen away, Qiao Xixi quickened her climb.
Tulun's cold gaze fixed on Qiao Xixi. He suddenly shifted into his beast form, leaped onto the stone wall, and charged toward her.
