In the forest on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital, a figure swiftly moved through the trees.
"I can't escape towards the headquarters, it would expose everyone."
Leone's footsteps halted, her beast ears perked up, and after discerning the direction, she ran towards the swamp deeper in the forest.
"If you dare, come and get me, you monster."
Leone gritted her silver teeth; she had been running for two hours, yet the sense of looming threat persisted.
Two minutes after Leone had run off, Su Xiao arrived at where she previously was.
He could only vaguely sense Leone's direction; she was fleeing in a panic and had no time to cover her tracks.
From the footprints and broken branches, he could deduce her specific position.
After confirming Leone's escape route, Su Xiao quickly followed. He already knew the enemy had discovered him; now they stood in the relationship of prey and hunter.
