Chapter 363 - Setting a Trap (2) (2/2)
The leader of the eagle beastmen flew towards Muir as he spoke.
Several eagle beastmen dashed towards Muir and closed in on him. Muir raised his speed to the maximum, and all he could see was that brightness at the exit point.
“Screech—”
He succeeded in flying out of the forest. A large black feather slowly fell from the skies, just like the ashes of a fire floating in the sky after a raging fire. Mixed with blood droplets, it seemed as though these ashes weren’t done burning, and there was still a scorching temperature to it.
“Screech—”
“Screech—”
The eagle beastmen came dashing over. Muir didn’t stop but instead flew in a different direction. There were now several scratch claws marks on his grayish-black chest and the end of his tail that were so deep the bones underneath could be seen.
The flesh at his wound was exposed, and his fur was moist. Every time he moved his wings, fresh blood would seep out.
Muir didn’t slow down at all. He had no idea how far behind his enemies were; the only thing he knew was that he had to try his hardest to fly ahead. In front of him was the monotonous scenery of the sea and the skies, yet his brain was filled with the images of Bai Qingqing’s smile.
Bai Qingqing’s smile was especially charming. Muir couldn’t remember what it was that he said that made Bai Qingqing suddenly smile—her lips would first purse, and following that the corners of her lips would twitch upwards, revealing a sweet smile on her fair and tender face, as well as eight adorable small white teeth.
Memories regarding her smile, every scene, every detail of every action, was clearly imprinted in Muir’s mind.
He must live. After he got through this, he would be able to be with Qingqing.
“Screech—”
Muir increased his speed again, and a string of blood droplets spilled in the skies.
The distance between the eagle beastmen and Muir drew apart once more.
Seeing that Muir could still increase his speed, the leader came to a halt and said, [Forget it, let’s conserve our energy. Since the weather is fine today, let’s go and kill the snake beastman first.]
The other eagle beastmen stopped where they were.
