This forest was originally a place rarely visited by people, filled with dense shrubs and devoid of any discernible paths. Zhu Bufan ran desperately, not even trying to discern a direction, diving into the thickest parts regardless of the potential danger. To Zhu Bufan, no danger in the forest could compare to the threat posed by Yichen relentlessly pursuing him from behind. This time, Zhu Bufan was no longer composed; rather, he appeared somewhat battered and haggard. Yichen's relentless pursuit put immense psychological pressure on Zhu Bufan, causing him to nearly stumble several times. However, Zhu Bufan's tenacity and desire to survive kept him going.
Yichen chased after Zhu Bufan closely, surprised that this kid would deliberately choose the most difficult paths to escape. This presented quite a challenge for Yichen as well. Yichen inwardly cursed Zhu Bufan, who was being troublesome even in his current state. Yet, despite the curses, he didn't slow his pace.
