Before long, Xiao Zheng and his group arrived at the side of a large river in the forest, the river’s ample water flow roaring with waves.
Titan, having gathered so information related to vampires and werewolves, was shocked upon seeing the river, saying, "Could this be the Boundary River?"
"What is the Boundary River?" Long Qie asked.
Titan replied, "The Boundary River is the dividing line between the vampire domain and the Werewolf Territory. Crossing this river leads to the werewolves’ territory."
Recalling Xiao Zheng’s earlier decision, Long Qie imdiately understood and smiled, "Mr. Xiao, you plan to temporarily retreat into the Werewolf Territory, don’t you?"
Xiao Zheng nodded, "That’s right. Although the conflict between the vampires and the Werewolf Clan is fierce, they maintain a general peace. I believe Harren and his group would hesitate at this river."
This Boundary River is akin to a national border; if Harren and his group cross over, it would be seen as a provocation against the Werewolf Clan and might even spark a war between the two clans.
Xiao Zheng and his group didn’t hesitate and imdiately crossed the river to the other side.
Though they were severely injured and exhausted, they were still much stronger than ordinary people. The wide river couldn’t stop them.
Having reached the opposite bank, Xiao Zheng and his companions continued into the depths of the Werewolf Territory, looking for a place to quietly rest and recover their strength.
Once their strength was restored, they’d naturally be able to take more actions and be more at ease.
Harren had just engaged in a fierce confrontation with Xiao Zheng, sustaining injuries that took a long ti to barely recover from.
Having just recovered, he pursued the marks left along the path by Borgia and others.
His speed was fast, and soon, he caught up with Borgia and his people, asking, "Where are they?"
Borgia, embarrassed, said, "Master, they escaped too quickly, we couldn’t catch up."
Furious, Harren exclaid, "Useless fools!" Looking ahead, his face changed drastically, shouting, "No good!"
"Hmm?"
His subordinates were puzzled.
"Are you idiots?" Harren laughed angrily, pointing ahead, "That’s werewolf territory up ahead. If Xiao Zheng and his group escaped there, it’s going to be a big problem!"
Borgia and his n were suddenly alard and shocked; their minds had been solely focused on pursuing Xiao Zheng, without considering so many other factors.
"Let’s speed up; we might catch them before they cross the Boundary River," Harren, calming down, spoke in a deep voice.
At this point, anger wasn’t going to solve the problem.
"Yes."
Borgia and his n all responded in unison, feeling aggrieved themselves— chasing Xiao Zheng and his group, missing them was one thing, but they’d been deceived!
Harren, leading a group of vampires, increased their speed to the maximum and arrived at the Boundary River, searching all around until they found the traces left by Xiao Zheng on the opposite bank.
Harren’s face turned grim, realizing at once that Xiao Zheng and his group had already escaped into the Werewolf Territory!
Borgia, Suleiman, and others, seeing Harren’s face darken further, didn’t dare to speak, each holding their breath.
After a mont, Harren’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, saying, "Let’s pursue them!"
Borgia was shocked, trying to dissuade, "Master, that’s the Werewolf Territory ahead. If we’re discovered after entering, it could ignite a war between the two clans!"
Harren replied coldly, "I don’t care about all that; I must capture the Evil God today!"
He suddenly turned, scanning the group of vampires with chilling eyes, "Anyone who dares to disobey dies!"
Borgia and the others were terrified into silence. Harren’s rule was extrely harsh—disobeying his command led to a very miserable end. They didn’t dare to say more.
At once, they crossed the Boundary River, pursuing in the direction of Xiao Zheng and his group.
At this mont, Xiao Zheng and his companions were resting in a forest clearing. After a series of battles and nurous ambushes during their escape, everyone was greatly depleted.
If it weren’t for raiding many Spiritual dicines from the dicine King Valley earlier, the situation would have been even worse.
Xiao Zheng wasn’t idle either; though he and Harren had both been severely injured, rendering him unable to exert even half of his fighting power, he still struggled to heal his companions.
His Gang Qi contained strong restorative abilities, visibly accelerating everyone’s recovery.
However, as a consequence, Xiao Zheng’s face grew paler.
In the end, they all urged Xiao Zheng to stop, but he shook his head, insisting on healing them.
Long Qie sighed, "If it weren’t for us being burdens, Mr. Xiao, you wouldn’t be injured. Harren couldn’t even touch you."
Everyone felt ashad.
Xiao Zheng laughed heartily, "What are you saying? Without you, how could I have rescued Evil Eyes? Besides, among brothers, why speak so much?"
Warmth filled the hearts of all present.
The reason they were willing to follow Xiao Zheng, even at the cost of their own lives, was precisely because Xiao Zheng treated them with genuine sincerity!
After resting for a while, suddenly, Xiao Zheng’s pupils contracted, and he turned to look behind him.
"What’s wrong?" Everyone was startled.
Xiao Zheng’s gaze had beco serious as he said in a deep voice, "Prepare yourselves, they’re coming."
"What? This is the Werewolf Territory; are these vampires crazy enough to chase us here?" Everyone was incredulous.
Xiao Zheng, however, remained calm, smirking, "The greed of n is boundless; for my Golden Bone, Harren wouldn’t stop at anything!"
They had no choice but to prepare for battle.
As expected, just monts later, a rustling sound ca from the depths of the forest, like a flock of birds moving through the branches.
Soon, a dark cloud surged from the forest, appearing over the clearing. It was the group of vampires led by Harren!
Harren, who had been previously torn by Xiao Zheng and lost a wing, could still fly quickly!
After all, he was of the sa level as Xiao Zheng. Even without wings, he could walk on air for a short while, though not as agile as before.
Harren laughed heartily, "Evil God, this ti, let’s see where you can escape! In my territory, even a strong being like you can’t escape!"
Xiao Zheng remained calm, "That may not necessarily be the case. To achieve your aim, you’ll need to act swiftly, or you’ll definitely draw the werewolves’ attention. But..."
Here, Xiao Zheng exuded a confident air, gazing at Harren, "Capturing us silently, even if you Harren people personally take action, can’t be done!"
