Chapter 1687: Chapter 1687: The Tragic Jiang Kuanyu
As Shu Yu and the others saw him, the tiger was being hacked to death by his two followers.
Jiang Kuanyu seized a brief opportunity and immediately fled sideways.
“Go, follow them.” Meng Yunzheng whispered, pulling Shu Yu’s hand as they gave chase.
Now the beasts were scattered everywhere, each with its own target. Meng Yunzheng chose paths to avoid them as much as possible. When unavoidable, he and Shu Yu coordinated seamlessly to eliminate any blocking tigers.
Meng Pei had no opportunity to act.
Behind them, the mountain bandits and Young Master He stared wide-eyed, feeling an inexplicable sense of safety.
Young Master He couldn’t help but squeeze his skinny arms and legs, feeling inferior even to a woman—what a… waste.
Watching the man and woman leading ahead, he chuckled inwardly, convinced there would be no problem in escaping from here.
With this thought, Young Master He was reinvigorated.
The group quickly caught up with Jiang Kuanyu.
Jiang Kuanyu was too preoccupied to care if anyone followed. Everyone in the black market was running everywhere; having a few people trailing him wasn’t unusual.
Moreover, Shu Yu and the others had changed into black market clothes. Young Master He had originally worn his own outfit, but after leaving the Beast Camp, he quickly stripped an intact set of clothes from someone else.
Jiang Kuanyu soon reached the door of the warehouse where Uncle Meng was locked, just as Meng Pei had speculated. After regaining his senses, saving Uncle Meng was his first thought.
The warehouse door was locked, yet his followers, who had been guarding it, were nowhere to be found.
Jiang Kuanyu inwardly cursed, immediately ordering someone to open the warehouse.
But before they could act, two jackals darted over, moving incredibly fast.
Perhaps the presence of Jiang Kuanyu and Meng Yunzheng at either side was too conspicuous, prompting the beasts to shift their attention here.
Young Master He, after spending a night at the Beast Camp, was exceptionally alert to beasts.
Upon noticing something pursuing them, he promptly shouted, “Danger.”
Meng Yunzheng didn’t even turn his head and simply manded, “Turn right,” pivoting his foot to separate from Jiang Kuanyu.
The others quickly followed. The two jackals stared at the prey suddenly vanishing before them, seemingly stunned. Agile as they were, they attempted to turn with the prey but rushed past.
No matter—it wasn’t important. There were still prey ahead, and Jiang Kuanyu’s three people were more than enough for the two jackals to split.
Despite their small size, jackals have greater bat prowess than wolves.
As the two jackals lunged forward, they confronted Jiang Kuanyu’s two men.
The plan to open the warehouse was thus thwarted.
Meng Yunzheng and the others turned the corner, hiding behind the wall and stopping to watch the battle from not far. Meng Yunzheng squinted slightly.
“Jiang Kuanyu was in such a hurry to get to that room, and it’s locked. Uncle must be inside.”
“What do we do now?”
“Wait.” Meng Yunzheng said. “Now that we know the location, we wait.”
They needed to find a place to hide. Otherwise, when the beasts charged this way, they’d have nowhere to escape.
While Meng Yunzheng assessed the surroundings, he noticed a door opposite quietly creaking open, and a head popping out, signaling him.
It was… Xia Yi!!
