Jin Ling took out the Bubble Fruits Qiao Xixi had given him and hurled several of them one after another. The explosions were enough to make the Demon Beasts wary of getting any closer.
"Feiyan, go!"
Feiyan turned, grabbed Qiao Ang in his jaws, and ran in the direction Qiao Xixi had gone.
Qiao Xixi sprinted with the three cubs until the path ahead grew darker and narrower, making her feel uncertain.
"Little Yao, are you sure we can get out of this godforsaken place?"
"Host, just keep running forward. Don't worry. As long as you keep going, the Demon Beasts and Mutant Beasts will never be able to catch you."
Qiao Xixi could only take its word for it and kept moving forward. She didn't notice that as she ran, the scenery around her was changing.
Just as she rounded a large boulder, the rock suddenly seemed to shift, and a thick white fog billowed toward her.
Her vision was instantly obscured.
"Aah! Mother!"
