Time reversed by a few minutes.
Xin Fat Man and Zhang Ji Xin, desperately sprinting through the streets of Wusa City, were anxious as could be.
The Furry Bean leading them was entering and exiting from the void more and more frequently, circling around their legs, seemingly eager to bite their legs and drag them forward. Its meowing became increasingly urgent and piercing.
Panting heavily, Xin Fat Man cursed under his breath that the Demons had picked the worst time to show up. Because of his build, it took him much more effort to run than others and, even using all his strength, he struggled to keep up with Zhang Ji Xin after any considerable distance.
His breathing grew more and more frantic, and his blue chubby face, due to the reddening, took on a purplish hue, oddly resembling Zhang Ji Xin's complexion.
That was until they passed a meat soup stall.
