Luo Li, being the strongest in the team, took the lead through the forest. Feng Fan and Lai Niu stayed in the middle, while Wu Yunru covered the rear.
The reasoning was simple—Wu Yunru's ability ensured that he wouldn't get caught off guard by a surprise attack.
"Damn it, you guys always give me the worst position," Wu Yunru complained, his face darkening.
Lai Niu and Luo Li didn't even bother to respond, but Feng Fan glanced back with a smirk. "How can you call it the worst position? With your luck, that should be the best one."
Wu Yunru rolled his eyes but kept quiet. They had barely walked a few minutes when Luo Li suddenly stopped, her gaze sharp and alert.
"What's wrong, Luo Li?" Lai Niu asked, confused by the sudden halt. She couldn't sense any immediate threat.
