Bab 1239: Wounded

In this darkness, the glare from the fire momentarily blinded the jackals when the torch was swung toward them. It made the pack retreat a little in fear.

Seizing this brief opportunity of their dull reaction, he shouted, "Run!"

Lisa carried the younger twin, then turned around, and ran off with him.

The pack soon caught up.

Mu Yichen was not lacking in speed, either. However, in his panic, he accidentally tripped on a broken branch littering the ground and stumbled with one of his knees propped up.

The girl turned her head at the sound, just in time to see a jackal pouncing on the boy's back with bared fangs!

She charged forward and swung her fist at its head!
