A human, and a woman at that, is an extremely rare species in the beast tribes.

A dark thought flashed in Hongxiao's eyes. He pretended to admit defeat and retreated in a humble manner.

Just when everyone thought the matter was resolved, he suddenly appeared from the side, not towards Luo Shui, nor to avenge Chu Feng, but towards Ye Nianzhen!

Before anyone could react, a huge leopard snatched Ye Nianzhen away!

The leopard sped out of their sight, abandoning even its own tribe, and raced into the deep mountains and forests.

Qin Qiu quickly transformed into a white tiger and chased after them, while Ming Yuan also transformed into a deer and followed. Luo Shui reacted too hastily and lost track of them. In such a snow-white environment, after entering a dense forest, one's vision would momentarily blur. It was in this way that Hong Xiao managed to shake off most of the people following behind.

Ye Nianzhen was thrown onto his back, and because the movement was too fast, she couldn't just jump off.

The only thing I could do was hold onto the fur on his neck to prevent him from falling and getting hurt.

This scene was all too familiar; it was the same when she was captured by zombies before. Come to think of it, back then, Hongxiao even followed behind and rescued her from the zombies, although in the end, it was Hongxiao who provoked the zombies, which led to her being thrown off the cliff...

Well, let's not talk about what happened before.

Ye Nianzhen turned her head with difficulty to look behind her. Hong Xiao was very clever and deliberately chose to walk in places with dense trees. Although most of these trees were bare and had no leaves, they still blocked Chu Feng's pursuit.

As an eagle, Chu Feng was originally the most skilled tracker among these people, but now he had to follow from a distance. After Hong Xiao twisted and turned for a while, Chu Feng lost track of her.

Not to mention Mingyuan, that deer with those two exaggerated antlers on its head, it could hardly move an inch in the dense forest.

Soon, only Qin Qiu, the white tiger, remained in the chase. Hong Xiao realized this and ran even faster. Leopards are much faster than tigers, but they have less stamina, so he had to shake off Qin Qiu in a short time.

The chase lasted for a while, and Ye Nianzhen almost forgot that she had superpowers. She took out a piece of paper from her body, bit her fingertip and drew a blood blade. The blood blade took shape from the paper. Ye Nianzhen picked it up and stabbed it into Hong Xiao's eyes without mercy.

The blade drew near Hongxiao's eyes, and this familiar sense of danger made him momentarily disoriented.

But he quickly dodged it, swerved to the side, and braked to a stop.

The sudden stop caused Ye Nianzhen to be thrown off balance by inertia, only coming to a stop after crashing into a tree.

For a moment, she wondered if Hongxiao was deliberately retaliating against her, but none of that mattered. What mattered was how to buy time so that Qin Qiu could find them later.

Ye Nianzhen held the Blood Blade, her eyes never leaving Hong Xiao.

Whether it's the superhuman Hong Xiao or the beastman Hong Xiao, they are both dangerous. They are equally aggressive and highly damaging.

It will take some time for Qin Qiu to arrive. She needs to find a way to stall Hong Xiao so that he can't take her away again.

The surrounding area was filled with dense trees. It was a cloudy day, and not much light shone into the forest. These cold-climate trees were tall and straight, with trunks that could easily block the view.

She should make some noise so that Qin Qiu can know their location.

Thinking this, she said to Hongxiao, "Who are you, and why are you arresting me?"

Hongxiao looked at her for a while, then transformed back into human form and said, "I'd like to ask you who you are? Why are all these beastmen so concerned about you?"

What he really wanted to ask was why Ye Nianzhen gave him a familiar feeling.

This familiar feeling persisted throughout; from the first moment he saw her, he felt an inexplicable excitement that was hard to calm.

Excitement... or is it like that? Does it resemble the excitement of encountering prey? Not really either.

It was too complicated; so many emotions were mixed together that he couldn't distinguish them at all.

Hongxiao felt as if he both liked her very much and was interested in her, and hated her so much that he wanted to kill her, bathe in her blood, and put her in a crystal coffin to admire her every day.

A very distorted, very abnormal emotion.

This was the first time in his memory that he had felt such strong emotions towards an individual other than himself.

He must find out the reason.

So he wanted to take this woman away and find out everything.

However, this woman has too many supporters, which is a bit troublesome. They are all quite strong, at least enough to make him admit that they are not weak.

"who I am?"

Ye Nianzhen was stumped by this question. Should she just make up an identity? That would lack persuasiveness, but it seemed that she had no other choice but to make something up, since they didn't remember anything about what happened in the last illusion.

"I am... the one mentioned in the prophecy, here to save your orc race!"

Never mind, I'll just make it up. I'd better make something really outrageous, maybe then they'll believe it.

"prophecy?"

Hongxiao paused for a moment, seemingly recalling some prophecy.

Ye Nianzhen's heart also began to pound. Could it be that such a thing really exists?

"You mean... the prophecy about the orc saintess?"

Hongxiao looked at Ye Nianzhen with a suspicious gaze, but wasn't this suspicion also a kind of wavering?

Then Ye Nianzhen heard a voice behind her, tinged with disbelief: "Prophecy? You are the Holy Maiden?"

It turned out to be Luo Shui. He was really lucky. He had lost track of her and wandered around outside the woods for a while. When he heard a sound nearby, he came in to check and found Ye Nianzhen.

"Luoshui!"

Although it wasn't Qin Qiu who surprised Ye Nianzhen, it's fine no matter who it is!

"It's me, I've come! I've come to save you, but are you really the Holy Maiden? Was it wrong of me to be so disrespectful to you before? Will the Beast God still protect me?"

Luo Shui was still quite talkative, and he mentioned the Beast God, which was the first time Ye Nianzhen had heard of it.

Are the customs of each tribe different? For example, the beast tribe here has a legend of a beast god and a saintess.

This unexpected turn of events turned out to be a lucky break, but how am I going to smooth things over now? Doesn't this make things more difficult?

Upon seeing Luo Shui arrive, Hong Xiao reacted quickly; he still hadn't given up on the idea of ​​capturing Ye Nianzhen.

He tried to rush towards Ye Nianzhen through several gaps, but Luo Shui blocked him each time.

Luoshui has always been Hongxiao's nemesis. In a face-to-face fight, it's hard to say who would win or lose, but in this stalemate, Luoshui always manages to prevent Hongxiao from gaining any advantage.

After a while, Qin Qiu also came over, and the situation was very unfavorable for Hong Xiao.
