After dealing with all the pursuers, Xiao Jin transformed into his human form, bent down under the tree, picked up Shen Tang, and continued to walk forward with her.
Who knows how long they walked.
A long string of footprints trailed across the snow, spanning most of the forest, even the blizzard couldn't catch up.
Xiao Jin arrived at a secluded hilltop, where the environment was quiet and undisturbed.
He laid Shen Tang down at the edge and transformed into his beast form again, digging a deep pit on the spot, large enough to accommodate two people.
He hesitated for a moment, let out a sorrowful, crying-like low growl, then turned his head, gently held the female with his mouth, and jumped into the pit.
The Black Panther lay at the bottom, serving as a cushion, allowing the female to rest on him.
He extended his tongue, carefully licking the female's pale cheeks, cleaning off the filthy blood and fallen snow that had splattered on her body.
