Yue placed the back of her hand on the girl's forehead standing opposite her.
"Sia? Are you alright?"
The ears on top of Sia's head twitched due to the sudden warm contact. She backed away and shook her head. Just like Yue, her breathing was uneven.
"I am fine, but is he really gone? That man has been following behind us for so many hours, and I noticed it..."
Sia sucked in a deep breath.
"He is strong enough to capture both of us within seconds but instead, he chose to trail behind when we made our escape. He was enjoying it when we struggled to take a breath! So, why did he suddenly disappear?"
Yue clenched her fists tightly. She noticed it as well, the man was indeed toying with them! She opened her mouth to utter some comforting words, but then a familiar laughter filled the air around them, sending chills down their spine.
