Boom—!
The rocks beneath her feet instantly shattered.
Jiang Yuechu shot forward like an arrow loosed from its string, charging straight at the two Sheep Demons fleeing in panic.
As luck would have it, the two beasts had lost their way in their haste and were crowded together, one behind the other, at the mouth of a narrow mountain path.
"Perfect."
