Chapter 53 is incredibly strong.
Neither of them spoke.
Meng Yu and Zhao Qi went to the other side for some sweet moments.
They came to scout the location yesterday and confirmed it was safe, so they weren't as wary as Zhu Yan.
Meng Yu pinned the small blue flower that Zhao Qi had given her behind her ear.
"Is it pretty?" she asked Zhao Qi, blinking.
Zhao Qi smiled and nodded, "My darling looks good no matter what."
Meng Yu smiled sweetly and said, "This flower smells quite nice."
A faint fragrance wafted into her nostrils, and she quite liked the scent.
Zhao Qi seemed very happy. "I'm glad you like it."
Little did they know that the trouble that was about to happen was brought about by this seemingly beautiful and harmless little flower.
Wen Li was located some distance away from Meng Yu and the others.
Occasionally, teasing sounds could be heard from the other side, but Wen Li remained unusually silent.
Both she and Zhu Yan had to diligently pick mushrooms.
Wen Li wasn't greedy; she felt that once she finished collecting this portion, she could go back.
Zhu Yan, however, suddenly stopped what he was doing.
He looked around.
Wen Li looked at him in confusion, "Zhu Yan, what's wrong?"
Zhu Yan's expression turned serious. "That's a bit strange," he said.
Zhu Yan couldn't quite describe the feeling; he just felt it was very strange.
This is his intuition about dangerous things.
The unease grew stronger.
Zhu Yan stood up, glanced at the basket beside her, and said, "Let's pick this much for today. We can go back now. Something's not right here."
Wen Li listened to the advice.
She felt that was enough, so she tossed the mushrooms in her hand into the basket and stood up.
"Okay, then I'll go call Meng Yu..."
Before Wen Li could finish speaking, a loud "bang" was heard, coming from the direction where Meng Yu and Zhao Qi were.
Three words flashed through Wen Li's mind: Something's happened.
She turned her head to look at where Meng Yu and the other person were, and what she saw made her dumbfounded.
A thick log was flying towards her.
It was too fast; Wen Li had no chance to react at all.
Just when she thought she was about to take the hit squarely, someone was faster and quicker than the flying log.
"careful!"
Her wrist was grabbed, a strong yet gentle force pulling Wen Li along and yanking her.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Li fell into a warm and passionate embrace.
Zhu Yan held her protectively in his arms, then turned around and used his back to block the incoming wooden pieces.
Wen Li was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and called out, "Meng Yu!"
The two looked in the direction where Meng Yu was, where a giant eagle had appeared out of nowhere.
A very large black eagle.
The giant eagle exuded an indescribable, intense aura as it engaged in a fierce battle with Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi had now transformed into his true form, which was a hunting dog.
The two fought fiercely, but the giant eagle had a natural advantage because it could fly, and Zhao Qi soon began to show signs of weakness.
Meng Yu lay sprawled on the ground, nervously staring in Zhao Qi's direction.
"Zhao Qi, watch out!"
Seeing that Zhao Qi was about to be pierced by the giant eagle's sharp claws, Meng Yu's heart clenched.
Wen Li was more worried about Meng Yu and wanted to pull her over, but Zhu Yan stopped her.
"You stay here, I'll go. Don't wander off," Zhu Yan quickly instructed Wen Li.
Then he slipped something into her hand and turned to run towards Zhao Qi.
At this moment, Zhao Qi had already been pierced through the shoulder by the giant eagle and collapsed to the ground in pain, unable to maintain his beast form.
Zhao Qi's strength was no match for the giant eagle.
He was still injured and needed to take medicine every day. He was not fully recovered yet and was almost pinned to the ground and beaten by the giant eagle.
The giant eagle was staring at Meng Yu behind Zhao Qi, its reddened eyes radiating coldness.
Zhao Qi's face contorted as he forced himself to stand up.
He couldn't let that raging giant eagle harm Meng Yu. "Run!"
Zhao Qi stopped the giant eagle and shouted at Meng Yu in a low voice.
Meng Yu looked at Zhao Qi's swaying back and her eyes suddenly reddened.
A look of disdain flashed in the giant eagle's eyes, and its sharp claws reached for Zhao Qi.
Just when Zhao Qi thought he was going to die, a red figure flashed by.
With a muffled thud, the giant eagle was kicked away and crashed into the river.
Zhao Qi only saw Zhu Yan easily pull her leg back.
In the distance, wild beasts that had been lying in wait nearby heard the commotion and rushed over, hoping to get a share of the spoils.
However, upon seeing the giant eagle being kicked into the river, the approaching beasts silently braked and fled.
The surroundings became quiet again.
The giant eagle struggled to take flight from the river, its blood-red eyes fixed on Zhu Yan's direction.
It felt a strong threat.
The instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm made the giant eagle decide to run away decisively.
However, before it could take flight, it was caught by Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan's movements were swift and decisive.
He grabbed the giant eagle's claws, pulled it down forcefully, and then pressed it to the ground.
With a flick of his wrist, he snapped the giant eagle's neck.
All three of them were stunned.
After easily dealing with the giant eagle, Zhu Yan didn't forget to wash his hands with river water.
He didn't look at the giant eagle's corpse again, and walked towards Wen Li.
After confirming that she was alright, he then looked at Meng Yu and the other person.
"Are you all alright?" Zhu Yan asked.
Meng Yu was not injured, but Zhao Qi was.
His shoulder was pierced by the giant eagle's claws, leaving a huge, bloody hole that looked particularly gruesome.
"Zhao Qi!" Meng Yu's tears fell in droves.
She didn't know why the giant eagle had suddenly descended from the sky and started attacking the two of them.
Wen Li jogged over to Zhao Qi and said, "I'll treat him."
With red eyes, Meng Yu nodded to Wen Li, "Please."
Zhu Yan suddenly grabbed Wen Li.
"?" Wen Li looked at him in confusion.
Zhu Yan gently shook her head.
Wen Li realized something, felt a warmth in her heart, and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine this time."
After she fainted last time, Wen Li's superpowers even broke through their limits and upgraded.
Zhao Qi's current injuries are not too difficult for her to handle.
Wen Li used her supernatural abilities and healed Zhao Qi in just a few minutes.
She didn't faint this time, but she clearly felt that half of the energy in her body had been drained.
I felt a little dizzy after standing up.
Zhu Yan noticed that something was wrong with her and gently helped her up.
Wen Li looked at Zhu Yan and smiled at him, "Thank you."
Zhu Yan did not answer, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Are you worried about me?" Wen Li asked softly.
This time, Zhu Yan did not deny it, but nodded slightly.
He was worried that Wen Li would faint for three days again, just like last time.
"I am fine."
Meng Yu, still shaken, clung to Zhao Qi.
Although Zhao Qi's wounds had healed, his face was still pale.
Meng Yu was still puzzled, "How did that eagle come to be?"
She and Zhao Qi were happily picking mushrooms when an eagle suddenly swooped down from the sky and began attacking her.
Fortunately, Zhao Qi reacted quickly enough to protect her, but he was injured in the process.
Meng Yu felt extremely distressed.
Before Wen Li could say anything, Zhu Yan suddenly grabbed her arm, saying, "I'll carry you back."
