Mo Liancheng swung his long sleeves, causing the branches blocking the view to fall.
He embraced Qu Tan'er, slowly straightened his body, and stood up, turning her small face towards him, "If you don't want to look, don't force yourself."
"Understood," she nodded.
A moment later, another scream rang out vividly in the silent forest, belonging to the fourth young master of the Shangguan Family who was in his death throes, being killed and then devoured by several Black Jade Spiders.
The scene was bloody and too dreadful to behold.
Shangguan Lin's face turned pale, and he abruptly turned and plunged his dagger into the trunk of a tree, climbing up.
In the end, he sat next to the young girl, temporarily safe.
However, sweat had already soaked Shangguan Lin's clothes thoroughly.
The girl in green lowered her head too, too frightened to speak.
Even fools could see that the only ones who could save them were the two Lianchengs.
Regret filled their hearts...
