Chapter 297 - No Escape (1/2)

The forest was caged in the inky darkness of night Xia Lei pulled Tang Yu-Yan along with him in a run in the dark; he was practically her eyes Spears, arrows and bullets whooshed crazily behind thes had just found cover and were looking for targets However, they’d becoets of their own - three arrows shot down from the tree canopy and pierced their heads

The Bureau 101 agents were hardier They went straight into co shot and dove into the closest bit of forest to hide behind the trees to return fire Their shots were focused and they were used to battle They were at a disadvantage but they did not appear flustered The defence line they formed blocked the White Hun Tribe’s first wave of attack and killed less than ten of the warriors

However, they were only able to block the first wave Enemies came from both sides a minute later to tear theents fell in pools of blood…

They had coe land Life is but once, and as to judge whether their deaths were noble?

No one had the right to judge

The only ones of the tea Yu-Yan

Tree after tree was left behind as they ran There were no paths in the forest but both of theround was like flat ground to them; they ran like the wind

Even the White Hun warriors ere familiar with the terrain could not catch up with Xia Lei and Tang Yu-Yan, thanks to Tang Qinggong and Xia Lei’s left eye They had escaped their encircle fish which had escaped the net

They did not kno long nor how far they ran, but they ran till they fell to the ground in exhaustion, panting and gasping Tang Yu-Yan, in particular, was gasping like a fish out of water, her chest rising and falling very visibly

It was all dark above and there was no sound of gunshots, no swishi+ng of arrows through the air, no footsteps and shouts of feh the trees The whole world was abnorhteningly quiet

Tang Yu-Yan suddenly got to her feet atowards the caot to his feet as well and pulled Tang Yu-Yan to a stop “What are you doing?”

“I’ Yu-Yan angrily

“Calm down!” Xia Lei had a heaviness in his voice “There’s just the two of us and there are over a hundred of the Yu-Yan shook Xia Lei’s hand off “You’re a coward! A coward!”

Xia Lei didn’thients who had died in battle were her subordinates and had been in countless life-and-death h their battles Even he felt terrible about the injustice of their deaths, so what ? Then I will!” Tang Yu-Yan went back the way they carabbed her by the waist and she thrust her elbow back to counterattack They twisted, they fought, and they fell to the ground, rolling about on the forest floor They wrestled for a bit before both cal Yu-Yan was not usually the sort of woet the better of her and she knew the consequences of her launching a counterattack - her fallen comrades would not co to co the team of experts if she died?

“What are you still on top of ry about hi to stop her She would probably have done so very stupid if he had not stopped her when she was being is wrapped around hers with their lower bodies pressed together, not giving her an inch of space

“I’ to feel uncoe when she’d lost control and gotten entangled with Xia Lei while being pushed to the ground but she was calainst her inti

“Don’t do anything reckless if I let you go Promise me and I’ll release you,” said Xia Lei

“I prolared at Xia Lei

Xia Lei relaxed his hold on Tang Yu-Yan but he still stayed near her, watching her warily He was afraid that she would go to start a reckless counterattack out of revenge and he was prepared to wrap her with his ar Yu-Yan displayed no signs of recklessness She got to her feet; she had forgotten to zip up her half-open jacket She looked blankly in the direction of the campsite and two streams of tears came from the corners of her eyes She made no sound but the sorrow she felt was the deepest

Xia Lei let out a set a chance to avenge them Don’t be too sad They came here to complete a mission so the best way to respect theirYu-Yan turned around abruptly and threw herself on Xia Lei’s shoulder, sobbing Her crying was fairly controlled; she did not dareXia Lei’s sweatshi+rt

Xia Lei patted her lightly on her back and coo ahead and cry You’ll feelit all out”

Her bountiful bosohtly around the waist His nose was filled with her scent too, but Xia Lei had no thoughts going in that direction, only heaviness It was just hiainst the entire White Hun Tribe They still needed to rescue the trapped experts - was this possible?

He then thought of his father again

The second note his father had left hiot to the White Hun Tribe, and the Russian woman named Yelena would appear toYu-Yan in this situation? She’s not eht now Besides, there are White Hun warriors in this forest Dad won’t risk sending his assistant Yelena to meet me, will he? Best to wait for a bit and act when the tiht Xia Lei to hi Yu-Yan raised her head froo They won’t give up on looking for us so we have to leave this place as quickly as we can”

The fa Yu-Yan was back

“No need to rush We need to take inventory I have all of my equipment, and some dry rations and water Yours?” said Xia Lei
