Half an hour later, the two arrived in a dense forest on the opposite peak, hiding under a large tree, calmly observing ahead, their cold eyes burning with endless battle intent. Shadow drew a military dagger, gestured to Luo Zheng to wait a moment, then launched himself forward like a cannonball.
After sprinting more than twenty meters, Shadow suddenly lunged forward, diving like a predatory eagle, landing on a bush, crushing the snow and foliage. Luo Zheng was astonished, unsure of Shadow's actions. Fixing his gaze, he saw Shadow rise from the bush, gesturing to him.
Luo Zheng jogged up in surprise, soon reaching Shadow, only to find a corpse in the bush, throat slit, blood still gushing out. Startled, he hadn't expected there to be a hidden sentry here. He quickly crouched down, vigilantly surveying the surroundings.
