It appeared to be a maiden, Chu Ming guessed in his heart, but due to the distance and the intense darkness ahead, he couldn't make out the girl's full features at all.
"Be careful!"
Out of instinct, Chu Ming exclaimed a warning, simultaneously darting towards the girl ahead almost instantaneously. His toes grazed the ground, rain splashing everywhere, but sliding off Chu Ming's body automatically upon contact. Water did not cling to his clothes, the droplets dispersing to his sides.
"Big brother, don't come over, Big Gray will harm you."
Upon hearing the warning, the shadow turned around, revealing a delicate face. Her eyes sparkled as if they could speak, her weak demeanor arousing a protective instinct in people. Such a nimble girl, Chu Ming marveled inwardly.
Despite his amazement, Chu Ming halted his advancing steps, fixing his gaze on the Demon Beast ahead, with his Silver Light Sword ready to attack at any moment.
