The wild boar chasing them got stuck in the narrow passage, its tusks just inches from Zhu Xiu's back.
But it bit at empty air, still struggling to push forward, its tusks snapping open and shut.
Xin Feng and Jin Yi were prepared. Working together, they shoved a massive boulder they had hidden in advance toward the cave entrance.
BOOM!
As the last gap was sealed shut, it blocked out the ferocious beasts outside.
Bai Wanwan was about to speak to Zhu Xiu, but he pressed a finger to her lips. "Shhh..."
Bai Wanwan fell still, standing reassured by his side.
None of the males in the cave made a sound. Gradually, the beasts outside, unable to break through the boulder and having lost their target, slowly dispersed...
As the roars of the beasts faded into the distance, everyone gradually began to relax.
"There's a wider area up ahead where we can rest for a bit."
