Li Rui remembered what Huo Yun had said.
There seemed to be a huge danger deep within the Silent Forest.
The reason he thought of it now was that he felt a vague threat from the pitch-black forest.
This sense of threat wasn't particularly sharp; it was like the distant rumble of thunder on a sweltering day, appearing occasionally, quickly disappearing, never deafening, just unsettling.
"It's very close now, the scent is getting stronger and stronger."
Brother Wu sniffed, speaking in a low voice.
He had a talent for enhanced sense of smell, making it easy to track enemies once he locked onto a target.
As an assassin, He Chengli had a passive stealth talent that didn't make him invisible directly but reduced his aura and presence, making it harder for others to notice him.
Since they were getting close to the depths of the Silent Forest, not only were the Demon Beasts stronger, but any competitors here would also not be weak. Keeping a trump card hidden was the safest bet.
