The sharp claws missed, and the Dragon Patterned Cub opened its gaping maw, snapping at Xiao Muyu's head.
WHOOSH! Just then, an arrow, swift as lightning, shot out, brutally striking the Dragon Patterned Cub's wound. It detonated on impact, sending the cub flying.
BOOM! The Dragon Patterned Cub's body slammed into a nearby tree trunk, snapping it, before falling heavily to the ground.
Critically wounded by the arrow, the Dragon Patterned Cub seemed to realize these two humans were formidable opponents. It scrambled to its feet and staggered towards the depths of the dense forest.
"Don't let it escape!" Xiao Muyu exclaimed hurriedly.
"Don't worry, it won't get far." Ling Chen had measured his shot carefully; that arrow possessed just enough force—not fatal, but enough to prevent the Dragon Patterned Cub from running far.
