All three of them turned around quickly.
It was Han Jue.
He stood a few steps behind them, his expression as cold as always. But this time, there was a faint warmth hidden in his eyes, something only those close to him could notice.
Hu Yan raised an eyebrow. "Where?"
Han Jue looked toward the north side of the forest. "It's a bit dangerous," he said in his usual calm tone. "The area is deep inside the Shadow Valley. The beasts there are wild and strong, but the prey there are plenty. If we go there, we can gather enough prey not only to pay the Bird Tribe but also to store for ourselves."
The three of them exchanged glances.
Hu Yan's eyes were serious, Rong Ye's face was firm, and Su Qinglan could see the same determination reflected in both of them. They were ready to take risks if it meant protecting their future.
