"GIDDYAP!"
"GIDDYAP!"
"..."
Hooves tore through the mud, kicking up a trail of dust.
Liao Ran glanced down at the segment of a demon's tail on her person. Though they were far from the Demon Cave, her expression showed no sign of relief.
On the contrary, it grew ever darker.
The demon artifact on her person was a Curious Object that could sense the presence of Demon Qi, its reaction growing stronger the closer the source.
And now, the demon tail was glowing faintly, indicating that a Demon was not only nearby, but closing in on them.
'The Demon didn't return to its Demon Cave? It picked up our scent and is chasing us directly?'
"Into the woods!"
A muscle twitched in her cheek as Liao Ran barked in a low voice,
"We can't go back to Hek Family Manor. We'll lead the Demon straight to it, and everyone there will be in danger."
"Right, right," the second uncle frantically nodded.
"Nothing can happen to Hek Family Manor!"
