The Return Of Howls

Something moved in front of her in the bushes.

Cheng Xiu frowned, contemplating whether she should actually investigate the sound or keep looking for San Zhe. Even though it seemed to be very obvious what she should do, it wasn't. There might be a chance that the thing hiding under the bushes could lead her to San Zhe.

Cheng Xiu raised her weapon in front of her cautiously and walked forwards.

Something moved out of the leaves at an amazing speed and went away in the opposite direction.

Cheng Xiu cursed and followed after the shadowy figure.

She burst out of the foliage into a small clearing. The noon sun highlighted her entire feature in a warm light.

Cheng Xiu was briefly blinded by the light and blinked.

"Sister Xiu! Run!"

Cheng Xiu froze and turned around to see where San Zhe's voice was coming from.

His voice seemed to echo everywhere around her.

Cheng Xiu saw a flash of gold in the corner of her eyes.
