He stared at Jin Zijin’s triumphant smile, his split teeth, and the blood filling his mouth making him look exceptionally ferocious.
Jin Zijin’s eyes darkened, and he scoffed coldly, "Your tongue has been cut, but it’s an easy task to find out who you are. Let go, and I won’t kill you."
The wild man uncle was dead set on not letting go, glaring at Jin Zijin with eyes full of hatred, wishing he could drink his blood and eat his flesh.
Such a gaze made Jin Zijin feel increasingly heavy-hearted.
He recalled those few... It seemed they all could have ended up !
He lifted his other leg and kicked fiercely at the wild man uncle, who was hit in the chest, spit out a mouthful of blood, and was sent flying a good distance.
Having freed himself, Jin Zijin turned back and took a deep look at Gu Youyou before turning without hesitation and chasing after the man who was fleeing.
This day, the quiet mountain forest was destined to be unrestful.
The wild man uncle didn’t give up just because Jin Zijin had kicked him away, but struggled to stand up, looking into the distance of the forest, he leveraged the advantage he had from years of living in the woods to quickly find a shortcut and catch up.
Gu Youyou also chased after them!
Gu Youyou couldn’t bear being used by him; she needed to find out if the person behind all this was him or not.
She thought it was him just now, but now she wasn’t so sure. Jin Zijin had only been in Lotus Village for five years, which didn’t match the timeline.
Moreover, if he had drugged her, he wouldn’t have helped her hide her physical condition. All this half year, he had clearly been trying to deceive everyone.
With too many unanswered questions, she was not satisfied!
Gu Youyou was not content to be manipulated by the person behind the poisoning; she followed closely behind the wild man uncle, moving swiftly through the mountain forest.
She was surprised at the potential this body could unleash, matching the wild man uncle’s speed.
The wind whistled past her ears, the trees around her swayed with their deep green branches, and startled animals scattered in all directions with their cries...
There was no path left at the opposite cliff. That guy seemed to have another bout of his dementia, standing there foolishly. Meanwhile, Jin Zijin had him tied up nicely and hoisted him onto his shoulder to carry away.
During his bout of dementia, he had no reaction, just foolishly watching Jin Zijin, letting him do as he wished.
The wild man uncle, summoning strength from who knows where, upon seeing this scene, recklessly leaped forward like an enraged monkey, jumping high and throwing his whole body’s strength into a lunge at Jin Zijin.
Jin Zijin had to let go of the man he had tied up to dodge the wild man uncle’s lunge.
When he missed, the wild man uncle jumped up again. He opened his mouth wide to a silent roar, his bloody teeth frightfully red, as if trying to exhaust all his strength in these desperate attacks on Jin Zijin.
He dodged, he lunged again, he dodged, he continued to lunge, as if he had endless energy.
If one didn’t know the wild man uncle was human, they might truly think he was an enormous wild monkey with agile movements!
Gu Youyou trailed behind them; they had already gone up ahead.
She ran forward a few steps, then came back, standing by the side of the foolish man.
Seeing him, Gu Youyou felt a kind of empathy for him.
They both suffered from the same strange cold poison; she had been raised in a small dark room resembling a grave since she was young, while he was locked in an ancient tomb. The person behind them, even if not the same individual, surely had an unusual connection.
