章 340: To Enter a Safe Camp With the Artist

Yujia & Yufeng were escorted back to the camp where the soldiers resided. With soldiers carrying torches to light the path ahead of them, the dark forest no longer seemed as terrifying. Yet still, Yujia was gripping Yufeng's hand, unwilling to let go.

As they walked through parted woods, one of the soldiers explained to her, "You should consider yourselves lucky. If we had not been there just in time…"

His words trailed off, but Yujia knew exactly what he implied.

She was truly ready to fall to her death moments ago. Her heart had set. She was fully prepared to sacrifice herself to save Yufeng's life. 

But now, she was walking on solid ground, on a path to safety. 

To consider herself lucky was almost an understatement. She was someone who had escaped death's grasp by a mere hair's breadth.

"What are you all— soldiers— doing in this mountain?" she ended up asking the soldier who had spoken to her.
