"We have to find a way." Ye Shikai glanced around. There were indeed a few trees nearby, but he thought better of it. Trying to out-climb a cat-like creature would be like showing off one's swordplay in front of Lord Guan; it was their specialty. Looking further aside, there was a river, which was also inconvenient, and besides, lions can probably swim too.
"I bet they already know we're here." Ye Shikai's expression was solemn as the pride of lions slowly moved closer to their prey, with a few already making their way around to both sides. This was the lions' hunting method, attacking as a group. Ye Shikai took out the sword crafted by Ghost from his Storage Ring, while Ji Qian held her Magic Wand. Suddenly, a male lion let out a mighty roar to the sky, the sound echoing loudly through the forest.
"Later you retreat first, I'll draw the lions away," Ye Shikai said as he stood protectively in front of Ji Qian, but she pushed him away.
