Chapter 156 - 156: Killed Two Lions
“Su Yingxue, just wait!”
Chu Xiuwen finally managed to move his legs, turning around and sprinting as fast as he could. However, his two legs were no match for the tiger’s four.
In addition, the arrowhead Su Yingxue shot at him was stained with muskiness. Spring was the time when animals were in heat. This tiger smelled the muskiness on his body and would chase him until it got its hands on him! Whether he lived or died would depend on his skills!
Su Yingxue’s lips curled into a smile. Memories of the women who had suffered at Chu Xiuwen’s hands fueled her satisfaction in seeking revenge for them.
As she was about to ride away, she heard a faint rustling from the surrounding foliage.
Her horse seemed startled, lifting its front hooves.
“Swoosh…”
Su Yingxue gently patted her horse’s head to calm it. She had spotted two pairs of eyes hidden in the woods.
These eyes had been observing for a while, waiting for the tiger to chase Chu Xiuwen away before revealing themselves.
Su Yingxue’s heart skipped a beat. Emerging from the underbrush were two lions.
These lions were different from the previous tiger, which had lunged at Chu Xiuwen like a ravenous beast. These lions were composed, waiting patiently for the right moment.
She had dealt with Chu Xiuwen, which meant that there was no one by her side now.
Su Yingxue tightened her grip on the bow and arrow in her hand. She did not expect that she would attract a lion!
Not just one, but two!
She squeezed the horse’s stomach and was about to run away, but the two lions blocked her way.
The two of them seemed to have discussed it beforehand. Today, they would leave her corpse behind to eat!
Su Yingxue clenched her teeth. She couldn’t run away now, so she could only fight with them!
As the lions charged at her, she crouched on her horse’s back and released an arrow.
Unfortunately, her shot missed, and she tumbled off her horse.
Her horse neighed and bolted, but the lions didn’t give chase. They continued to fixate on her.
Su Yingxue was now bruised and battered. She continuously drew her bow and arrows, retreating, but she was unable to injure the two lions at all.
“D*mn it!”
Su Yingxue muttered under her breath. How had she managed to attract such ferocious beasts?
“Su Yingxue!”
A displeased male voice resounded, sending a shiver through the two lions.
One of the lions abruptly lunged at Su Yingxue. She had no time to defend herself, and in an instant, a scream pierced the air, followed by the thud of a body hitting the grass.
When Su Yingxue reopened her eyes, the lion that had attacked her lay dismembered. Its limbs twitched on the ground. The other lion roared menacingly at Chu Yihan, “Roar!”
Chu Yihan, his figure poised, was about to deal with the remaining lion when Su Yingxue shouted, “Come on!”
She fled, and the remaining lion pursued her.
Chu Yihan leaped over several trees to catch up. He pulled her into his embrace, swiftly decapitating the lion.
Two lion heads rolled to the ground.
Chu Yihan covered Su Yingxue’s eyes and wiped the blood from her face.
Curiously, he asked, “Why did you run?”
She was shocked and her voice was trembling. “I…1 was scared.”
Chu Yihan had initially thought that it was strange, but now that he saw that she was frightened, he immediately softened his heart and hugged her in his arms. He rubbed the back of her head and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid. 1 won’t let you get hurt.”
Su Yingxue felt a soothing warmth in her heart..
