章 231: Fight

Dai Zixian signaled her not to worry, and assumed a defensive posture.

Su Jin turned her head and looked at the dark corner again.

She handed the torch forward and could just make out the outline of the animal.

That outline was very familiar. Su Jin thought for a moment. Wasn't that the animal that stared at them from the tree this morning?

It was the same size, the same fur color.

Had it been following them since morning, all the way here?

Su Jin's heart turned cold.

The two of them stood in a deadlock for a quarter of an hour, and then they saw it pacing slowly out of the darkness.

It was a long distance this morning, and it was in the shadows, so they could not see it clearly.

But now, under the illumination of the fire, Su Jin could clearly see its details from less than twenty meters away.
