Jin Ziyuan had blocked most of the firepower, but in doing so had suffered injuries himself to protect Gu Youyou and Searcy below, sporting two large bruises on his forehead, making his handsome face look odd.
And the back of his head had taken quite a harsh hit, bleeding.
"Hold tight," Jin Ziyuan shouted while dodging.
Having said that, he had already untied the rope on his body and securely tied it around a large tree next to him, then leapt into the air, reaching the group of monkeys in just a few bounds.
The swordlight flashed, and soon several slow-running monkeys were bloodied on the spot.
After swinging his sword and cutting down a few, it seemed to have frightened the monkeys, as they jumped far away, clutching the fruit in their hands, their round eyes fixed on Jin Ziyuan with the sword, baring their teeth in a fierce expression.
Gu Youyou was clutching a tree with one hand and holding a dagger in the other.
