Yao Yao really couldn't hold back its nervousness anymore.
Its ears pressed even closer to the tree trunk.
It tilted its head outward.
It cautiously peeked outside.
The first thing it saw was the other party's feet.
Its gaze slowly traveled upward.

So naturally, it assumed that the fierce voice it had just heard had come from that yaoguai.

It pretended to be calm.
Wasn't one head enough?
It had already shown itself.
What more did they want?
Still trying to look calm, it retreated half a step.
Once it came out, it realized that the human was rather close
