Feiyan noticed the odd look on Jin Ling's face and spoke up.
"The Bone Bell Xixi gave me just rang. Something might have happened with Xueche. Let's go check it out."
"Alright."
The two shifted into their beast forms and ran down the dark path. As they neared the city gate, they saw the glow of a fire up ahead.
"Why is it on fire over there?"
Jin Ling frowned. The feeling that something was wrong intensified, and he sped up.
When they reached the city gate, they found Xueche on the ground, being beaten and kicked by two beastmen soldiers.
"ROAR—"
With a tiger's roar, Jin Ling lunged forward and sent the two beastmen soldiers flying.
The commotion drew the attention of the other beastmen soldiers, who quickly moved to surround Jin Ling and his companion.
Feiyan went to Xueche's side and nudged him with his head. "Are you alright?"
