Chapter 42: Animal World

Even though he had faced it in a close combat before, Xiang Kun was still taken aback at the sight of the owl standing under the moonlit sky atop of a rock, about the size of an adult human.

Xiang Kun remained highly cautious, deciphering the body language of the owl. He could clearly feel the hesitation and fear the owl held towards him.

But it didn't fly away upon spotting him- if it did, he could never catch up. He would just have to keep tracking it in the direction it chose to fly, but it would be tough to find it before dawn.

Given the owl's ability to detect, it must have spotted him shortly after he had spotted it. It could have flown away instantly, but it didn't.

Not flying away suggests it had other plans...

Either it was unable to fly temporarily due to certain reasons,

Or it was still not reconciled to its defeat and wanted to eliminate Xiang Kun.

According to Xiang Kun's judgement, the latter seemed more probable.
