Chapter 487: Chapter 337: Silver in Action (Second Update)_1

The chilly wind whistled. It was only around four or five in the morning. It was November, already winter. Days were getting shorter and nights longer, there was only a faint afterglow at this moment. However, this didn’t hinder Mu Lin and the others from moving forward.

Travelling in such a jungle shrouded in darkness was indeed a very dangerous thing.

Serpents, bugs, rats, and ants – these untamed elements of nature held the most dangerous threats. If one was careless, death was inevitable.

Nevertheless, during this time, the venomous snakes in the jungle should be hibernating, so at least they wouldn’t have to worry about accidentally stepping on one and being bitten.

Inside the jungle, Mu Lin and Ying Sun’s group were running wildly. Along the way, they trod upon not only animal bones but also human remains. This gave them a rough idea of the degree of danger inside.

Countless wars must have taken place in here.

The howls of wolves echoed in their ears, sending chills down their spines. They weren’t afraid of encountering a wolf pack themselves, but they feared for Jing Chen’s group if they came upon one. Wolf packs were troublesome; many of their comrades had been injured by them. Also, the scent of blood would inevitably attract unknown dangers.

Now, they just hoped that nothing disastrous would occur before they found Jing Chen’s group.

Mu Lin’s lips tightened, her eyes deep and thoughtful.

Five hours had passed since she had received the call. During these hours, she hoped with all her heart that Jing Chen hadn’t been injured.

Each time she imagined someone hurting Jing Chen, Mu Lin wanted to tear them to pieces and feed them to Qiaozi.

Mu Lin had only felt this way for Mu Jue before; she never thought that unknowingly, Jing Chen had become so important to her, he could even compare to her beloved Master.

Uncle Qiaozi indicated that he had become picky and refused to eat raw meat.

"Have you been here before?" A cold voice echoed in the frigid wind as they continued to sprint.

Black Shark paused, then said, "We ventured here once on a mission, but that was during the day. That was a long time ago. If Mu Lin hadn’t asked, we’d have almost forgotten." He paused before continuing, "However, even though we’ve been here before, looking at these surroundings, we have no recollection whatsoever."

The jungle was massive. The area they had entered last time was probably just a small corner of it.

Mu Lin was deep in thought.

As for Qiaozi, since his wings were injured and he couldn’t fly for the time being, he simply perched leisurely on Black Shark’s broad shoulder. Despite the jolting, he didn’t fall, which spoke of his skills.

Uncle Qiaozi indicated that he almost fell quite a few times.

Time ticked by. The sky gradually brightened, but Mu Lin and her group still couldn’t locate Jing Chen’s group.

They were easier to hide at night. Now, as the sky lightened, the chances of Jing Chen and his group being found increased.

Previously, Mu Lin had learned from Qiaozi that Jing Chen’s group had hidden themselves in this jungle.

Her lips tightened lightly, her eyebrows faintly knitted.

"Yi Yan." Suddenly, Mu Lin called out, leaving Ying Sun’s group baffled. Who was Yi Yan? They only knew about Qiaozi. Could it be that Qiaozi had another name?

While their thoughts were still settling, they saw a small, thin black snake suddenly appear on Mu Lin’s wrist, flicking its forked tongue and staring at Mu Lin with its silver eyes. Drowsiness was apparent in its stare; it appeared completely bewildered.

Although it wasn’t required to hibernate completely, since Yi Yan was a snake, it had started to become sleepy as the weather gradually got colder.

Well, it seemed to always be rather sleepy.

The sudden appearance of a small black snake shocked Black Shark and the others.

A snake!

It had a triangular head and silver eyes on its red head - one look and you knew it was a deadly poisonous snake!

Since when did their sister-in-law start raising such a peculiar creature? For the first time, Ying Sun’s group began to doubt Mu Lin’s taste.

However, no one could really figure out what was going on in Mu Lin’s mind. Just like their squad leader, trying to fathom their thoughts was a task ten thousand years too early for them.
