But she couldn't find a single strand of hair around!
Yuanya was getting a bit desperate now.
Could she have been discovered by those people and taken back...
No!
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks!
This wasn't the city center; even if she had run on foot from the nearest nightspot to here, she couldn't have possibly made it in a day and a night!
A sudden sense of foreboding rose in her heart, and Yuanya's hand immediately reached for her waist.
In the blink of an eye, she had reversed her grip on the dagger.
This was a habit she had developed since her escape. No matter when, she always carried the dagger with her.
Just then, an almost imperceptible sound resonated.
Although slight, it was amplified by the surrounding silence and caught by Yuanya...
It was the sound of a gun's safety being released!
Without thinking, Yuanya reflexively turned her head, and with a ping, a bullet whizzed past her cheek and struck the large tree behind her!
