The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.

Chapter 344 My heart is pounding

No one got a good night's rest, but the anticipated danger did not occur until dawn.

Seeing that everyone was awake, Yan Lie leaped down from the tree branch. "Those eagles haven't appeared again, so it seems safe for now. I'm going to hunt them."

Xin Feng grunted in agreement. "Be careful."

After responding, Yan Lie leaped and disappeared into the forest.

After a night of recovery, Xin Feng and Jin Yi had mostly recovered from their injuries.

Zhu Xiu's enormous head turned for a moment before his scarlet eyes turned to them. "This area is not safe. We should return to the Golden Lion Tribe as soon as possible."

Jin Yi frowned and said, "The Eagle Beast Clan is extremely vengeful. They suffered too many losses yesterday, so they certainly won't let us off so easily."

Bai Wanwan looked at the towering trees and said with a smile, "It's alright, as long as we don't leave the forest, the eagle beasts can't do anything to us."

“Wanwan…” Zhu Xiu sighed, “You’ve forgotten that when we came here, there was a cliff and a stone forest.”

Bai Wanwan suddenly remembered that she had been sleeping on that stretch of road, and when she woke up, she did see a cliff.

"Let's hurry there and get there before they spot us."

Xin Feng pondered for a long time before saying, "I'm afraid they haven't left at all, but are hiding somewhere waiting for us."

Bai Wanwan turned to him and asked, "Do you have any other options? We can take another route."

Golden Lion paced back and forth a few steps. “Changing the route will yield the same result. There’s no cover on the grassland, making it easier to be attacked than the cliff route.”

Bai Wanwan was optimistic. "Since there's no other choice, let's go down the cliff. Once my laser gun is fully charged, we can cross it."

At least she has some ability to protect herself and won't be helpless.

Yan Lie quickly hunted a deer and several rabbits nearby and brought them back.

"These are the only small creatures around here. If we don't have enough to eat, we can catch more on the way."

None of the males were picky; they each cut their own meat and shared it.

Bai Wanwan also sat to the side while they ate, took out the jerky from her system space, and chewed it slowly.

After Yan Lie finished eating quickly, he sat down next to her. "Wanwan, what are you thinking about?"

Bai Wanwan shook her head, but her brows furrowed.

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm just a little anxious."

From last night until now, she doesn't know if it's the psychological trauma left by that giant eagle beast, or something else.

In short, she felt uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen.

"Don't be afraid," Yan Lie said, holding her hand in his palm. "Jin Yi and Zhu Xiu are both orange-tier talents. Even if you encounter danger, they can take you away immediately."

Bai Wanwan gripped his hand tightly, her expression serious. "And what about you? If you can't escape, what are you going to do? Use yourself as bait?"

Yan Lie's eyes flickered. "How could that be? I'm also a Yellow-Rank Beastman. I can escape."

“You better think of it this way.” Bai Wanwan glared at him. “Look at me. No matter what happens, remember, you must save your own life.”

"Okay, Wanwan, I promise you."

"Have you eaten yet?"

Xin Feng walked over and extended his hand to her.

"I've eaten."

Bai Wanwan smiled at him, placed her hand in his palm, and was pulled to her feet by him.

"Eat well and then we'll set off, Wanwan. Jin Yi will carry you today."

Although Yan Lie is fast, his strength is slightly weaker.

If the situation becomes critical and there's no time to spare, Jin Yi taking Wanwan away is the best option.

Bai Wanwan knew this was the optimal arrangement the beastmen had discussed, so without hesitation, she went straight to Jin Yi's side, hugged his neck, and slowly climbed up to sit down. "Let's go, let's set off!"

They traveled through the forest for two whole days without encountering any danger.

The eagle beast seemed to have vanished completely.

But Bai Wanwan's heart was not at peace. The feeling of panic grew stronger and stronger as time went by.

As the sun set, they stopped to rest.

Xin Feng wrapped her in his silvery-white fur.

"Wanwan, are you worried?"

When she arrived, the smile on Wanwan's face never disappeared.

Now not only are there no smiles, but even the sound of their voices has disappeared.

Bai Wanwan hugged his beast-like body and buried her face in the soft fur on his chest. "Hmm, should we... take a different route?"

"what happened?"

Xin Feng looked down at her, his eyes filled with worry in the moonlight.

"I don't know either. It's been two days, and I've been feeling very anxious. I can't explain why."

Xin Feng lowered his head and rubbed his face against her head. "You're too nervous, that's why you're flustered. The Eagle Beast Clan has already suffered heavy losses. Even if they're still planning to ambush us, the result will be the same as last time. We'll be fine, and you'll be fine too."

His voice, like a clear spring, strangely soothed her restless heart.

Then he patted her back gently, saying, "Don't think about anything. You haven't rested well these past two days and you look terrible. Get a good night's sleep. After we get over the cliff tomorrow, the journey back will be much easier."

Xin Feng's comforting words were truly effective; she gradually relaxed, and with his gentle patting, she soon became drowsy.

She could vaguely hear Xin Feng speaking, but she couldn't make out what he was saying.

"Is Wanwan asleep?" Yan Lie's voice came from the side.

"Yeah, I'm asleep," Xin Feng replied.

"We'll be passing the cliff tomorrow, everyone be prepared," Zhu Xiu's voice came from the diagonal front.

He was on night watch, his massive body standing beside a giant tree, like twin trees side by side.

"Yes, we will protect Wanwan at all costs."

Zhu Xiu turned around, his scarlet eyes standing out prominently in the darkness.

"The path along the cliff is not easy to walk; the Eagle Beast clan has orange-rank beastmen."

Xin Feng, holding Bai Wanwan, turned to look at him and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Zhu Xiu's gaze also fell on the petite figure in his arms.

"If... the situation tomorrow is more serious than we imagine, and we can't get away, I will stay behind to hold off the eagle beast, and you all should protect Wanwan and leave as quickly as possible."

At this point, Zhu Xiu turned to look at Jin Yi, "Perhaps I can't keep all the eagle beasts, then I'll have to rely on you to buy Wanwan some time."

Yan Lie was stunned, his eyes instantly turning red. "I'll go! I'll stop them. You have orange-tier talents, staying by Wanwan's side will allow you to better protect her."

"You can't stop it!"

Zhu Xiu spoke frankly, then added, "This is just the worst-case scenario; it may not actually happen. We just need to discuss it now to avoid any unforeseen chaos."

Jin Yi nodded, "Okay, if the situation becomes critical, I will stop the remaining eagle beasts."

As the males were discussing their plan, Bai Wanwan, who was in Xin Feng's arms, suddenly moved.

The males immediately held their breath.
