67 Chapter 52: Turning the Tables
Seeing Yan Fei leap off the cliff, the blonde beauty was startled and rushed to look, only to see that below the cliff Yan Fei was pulling on a vine and swinging away like a monkey. It turned out that in the nick of time, Yan Fei had spotted the vines by the side of the cliff, and immediately jumped down to swing away.
The blonde beauty jumped, following him off the cliff. She caught another vine and swung in Yan Fei''s direction. Just as Yan Fei was feeling relieved, he saw the blonde beauty was actually following him and immediately let go of the vine, somersaulted forward, grabbed another vine ahead, and continued to fly forward.
Yan Fei felt somewhat helpless in his heart, as this blonde beauty was too hard to shake off. He couldn''t beat her nor escape from her, which was extremely frustrating. His Drone Avatar was rushing toward this location, but even so, it would take some time for the drone to arrive. He was confident that as soon as the drone arrived, he could kill the blonde beauty. However, in the time before that, he would be in great danger.
Just as Yan Fei was switching vines for the eighth time, he saw the blonde beauty suddenly release her vine, jump high into the air with limbs spread, gliding against the wind, and then flew over the vine above Yan Fei''s head. As she flew over Yan Fei''s head, a sh of cold light from her hand caused Yan Fei to suddenly feel his grip loosening and, without anything to leverage, his body began to plummet into the abyss below.
It turned out that the blonde beauty had unleashed a surprise tactic and finally caught up with Yan Fei. At the right moment, she used a dagger that had appeared in her hand to cut Yan Fei''s vine, leaving him without anything to hold onto and dropping straight down. She continued to glide forward, caught another vine, swung a few times, then stopped and looked down.
As Yan Fei fell through the air, he wasn''t panicked. The more dangerous the situation, the more he needed to stay calm. Only withposure could there be a chance of surviving from death, and panic could cause a missed opportunity, leading to a final downfall.
Falling rapidly and in a state of weightlessness, Yan Fei''s body was trained to the point of being just a step away from the Acquired Peak level, so he was still able to maneuver freely in the air. He looked around for any life force. Then he noticed a huge tree growing on the cliff below him to the side, its branches and leaves lush, resembling an open umbre that covered a vast space.
Yan Fei was overjoyed. He did several flips in mid-air and managed to close the distance to the tree. Ultimately, he approached the huge tree, grabbed a vine that hung down from it, swung forcefully, and thennded steadily on the tree.
Yan Fei stood on the trunk of the tree, his heart racing, his back breaking out in a cold sweat, feeling waves of after-fear. His entire escape process was extremely perilous. Any negligence or error in any step could have resulted in a gruesome death. Fortunately, hardened by many battles and close encounters with death, his mental strength was tremendous, enabling him to find a way to survive in what seemed like certain death.
The blonde beauty in the sky initially thought Yan Fei was done for, but to her disbelief, Yan Fei miraculously survived and escaped death. Thus, without any hesitation, she released her hold on the vine and fell toward the big tree below.
As Yan Fei was feeling lucky, he saw the blonde beauty from above continuing her pursuit, which made him extremely angry. This woman was insane. Even now, she still wanted to kill him. Could it be that she was Sam''s mistress and was so determined to avenge him by killing him?
However, this was an excellent opportunity for Yan Fei. He casually broke off a thick branch from the tree, intending to swipe it at the blonde beauty falling through the air.
But just then, a strong wind picked up behind him. Surprised, Yan Fei swept the branch backward, only to be met with a powerful force. His branch was knocked away, and he stumbled several steps before managing to steady himself, nearly falling into the abyss. He turned to look and saw a massive gori standing on the branch behind him, furiously pounding its chest with an angry roar, its blood-red eyes locked on Yan Fei.
Being stared down by a huge gori, Yan Fei didn''t dare move a muscle, fearing that any sudden movement would provoke a violent attack from the gori.
Just then, the blonde beauty happened tond on the big tree, but before she could steady herself, a thunderous roar sounded, and a giant hand emerged from the darkness, pping toward her. The blonde beauty was too slow to dodge and was struck by the hand, screaming as she hit the cliff, then fell back onto the tree, lying motionless on a branch.
Yan Fei''s eyelids twitched as he saw another huge chimpanzee emerge from the darkness of the tree. This chimpanzee had sneakily attacked the blonde beauty as she was falling, leaving her possibly dead or unconscious. But the chimpanzee in front of him was no small challenge either; it red at Yan Fei with malicious intent, slowly approaching him.
As Yan Fei braced himself for a life-or-death struggle with this chimpanzee, the blonde beauty, who had been lying motionlessly on the tree, suddenly sprang up, a cold light shing in her hand. She shed the neck of the attacking chimpanzee.
The blonde beauty''s strike severely injured the chimpanzee. It clutched its throat, making a wailing sound of agony. The chimpanzee in front of Yan Fei was shocked and immediately abandoned its pursuit of Yan Fei, rushing toward its gravely wounded counterpart.

The severely injured chimpanzee quickly lost the light in its eyes. Its body went limp on the branch and then slid off, plummeting into the abyss below. The pursuing chimpanzee saw itspanion fall off the cliff and was instantly enraged. With a furious roar, it beat its chest with both hands and then pounced on the golden-haired woman, swatting at her with a heavy palm.
The golden-haired woman had been seriously injured in the previous attack by the chimpanzee. Although she unleashed her full strength and killed one, her stamina was rapidly failing. Now pressed by this chimpanzee, she couldn''t dodge in time. She was struck by the massive palm, let out a sharp scream, and was sent flying far away.
Just as the chimpanzee moved forward to chase, intent on delivering a fatal blow to the golden-haired woman, a dazzling sh of light burst into the dark night sky, like a sudden appearance of the sun. The chimpanzee''s eyes were instantly blinded by the sh, and it could no longer locate the golden-haired woman. She swiftly approached the blinded chimpanzee and drew her dagger across its throat, instantly severing its windpipe and terminating the second chimpanzee.
The golden-haired woman had used the only item she had at the critical moment—a sh grenade. The chimpanzee, consumed with rage and focusing on the woman, was caught off guard by the sh grenade and was instantly blinded, easily having its throat shed by the golden-haired woman.
Yan Fei, perched on a distant tree trunk with his excellent eyesight, sensed trouble when he saw the golden-haired woman throw something. He quickly ducked, fortuitously avoiding the sh grenade''s assault.
The golden-haired woman, with her heroic strength, had killed another chimpanzee, but she was injured again, leaving her with less than ten percent of her strength. When she saw Yan Fei standing up and looking at her, she was startled, suddenly remembering that she was now severely injured and no longer a match for Yan Fei. She made a split-second decision, leaped from the tree, and swung away using the vines hanging from it.
Yan Fei still wanted the rusty gear from the golden-haired woman. Now noticing the reversal of strength, he instantly set off in pursuit, but then he heard strange noises from below the tree. He hesitated, looked down, and saw a small ck figure trembling slightly through the cracks between the tree branches, whimpering. Upon a closer look, he realized it was a young chimpanzee.
Yan Fei observed and discovered that there was a rudimentary treehouse in the tree, which, ording to its size, belonged to the chimpanzees. The two chimpanzees that had just died were surely the owners of this treehouse, and the young chimpanzee must be their child.
Yan Fei and the golden-haired woman had unwittingly invaded the chimpanzee''s territory, which was why they had been attacked by the chimpanzees. But what the chimpanzees hadn''t anticipated was that neither Yan Fei nor the golden-haired woman were ordinary humans—they had hoped to eliminate these invaders but ended up dying by the hands of the golden-haired woman''s dagger.
The young chimpanzee had surely witnessed its parents being killed by the golden-haired woman, thus its sorrowful whimpering.
Yan Fei, seeing the young chimpanzee, felt it was extremely pitiable. Although its parents had died by the hands of the golden-haired woman, it was because he had intruded into their nest—they were simply defending themselves. Moreover, the two chimpanzees had managed to injure the golden-haired woman and caused her to flee, giving him a chance to turn the tables, so in a way, the two chimpanzees had done him a favor.
So upon seeing the young chimpanzee, Yan Fei felt a surge ofpassion and couldn''t bear to leave it alone here. The young chimpanzee seemed very small, probably not yet weaned. If he didn''t take care of it, leaving it here alone, it would undoubtedly die.
Therefore, Yan Fei took out a backpack from the Universal Space, picked up the young chimpanzee, ced it inside with only its head poking out, and descended the tree using the vines, following the direction in which the golden-haired woman had disappeared.
Yan Fei could see far ahead in the dark night, having already locked onto the direction the golden-haired woman had taken. He grasped a vine and pursued. Before long, he spotted the silhouette of the golden-haired woman on arge tree halfway up the mountain. She was crouching there, tearing off pieces of her clothing to bandage her wounds—it seemed her injuries from the chimpanzee attack were not light.
The moment the golden-haired woman saw Yan Fei following her, she immediately stood up, grabbed the vines nearby, and swung forward, fleeing. Yan Fei hurriedly gave chase.
Thus, the situation had reversed; Yan Fei, who was originally the prey, now pursued the golden-haired woman, who had been the hunter. Yan Fei''s incredible physical recovery allowed his strength to replenish rapidly, while the golden-haired woman, heavily injured and rapidly depleting her stamina, had no means of quick recovery. Her strength had significantly dropped, and she was no longer a match for Yan Fei.
Seeing Yan Fei closing in, the golden-haired woman, realizing escape was futile, no longer fled. She stood still, turning back to look at Yan Fei.
Yan Fei caught up with the golden-haired woman and, without further ado, prepared tounch an attack. Then he noticed a mysterious smile on her lips, a feeling of extreme danger suddenly rising in his heart. Then came the thunderous roar from the sky, as a Fighter Jet appeared above the mountaintop and began a dive towards him.
