Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Danger at Dawn

Boom!

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the night.

Countless raindrops heavily smacked Nan Yu’s face as she blinked, concentrating all her attention on the pride of lions.

But in just an instant, the lions that were ten meters away were now right in front of Nan Yu.

With a single powerful leap, a mere three meters would be enough for the lion to bite off her arm effortlessly.

Ren Xingzhou, who was driving, also noticed the problem from the rearview mirror and frantically stepped on the gas, but the heavy rain and the uphill road meant the motorcycle simply couldn’t outrun the lions.

His heart sank, "Nan Yu, hold on tight, I will see if there’s another way to dodge them shortly."

Suddenly, he felt a weight on his shoulder.

Soon after, Nan Yu’s stern voice reached his ears.

"Brother Ren, at this rate, neither of us will make it out. I think they’re after me. I’ll hold them off for you; you go back first, and I’ll find a chance later."

The next second, Ren Xingzhou felt the weight on his shoulder lighten, and the seat behind him empty.

He inwardly cried out in alarm and saw through the rearview mirror that Nan Yu had stood up, reached out to grab a branch, hoisted herself up, and was now hanging from the tree.

The lion pride that had been frantically chasing them now all stopped beneath her.

They roared at her wildly, desperately leaping, attempting to bite Nan Yu.

In a split second, Xingzhou fully realized the situation.

The lions weren’t chasing a person; they were chasing Nan Yu.

Crack—

Ren Xingzhou abruptly brought the motorcycle to a halt and decided to go save Nan Yu.

He hadn’t expected to turn and see Nan Yu releasing her hold on the branch and landing squarely on the Lion King, riding it firmly.

Seeing him look back, Nan Yu hurriedly called out loudly, "Brother Ren, don’t worry about me, go back for the tranquilizer gun!"

Hearing this, Ren Xingzhou bit his lower lip, took the hunting rifle from his back, and threw it towards her across the short distance between them.

"Nan Yu, if you encounter any particularly dangerous situations, use the gun to save your life. If these lions die, I will explain it to the lady later."

Nan Yu caught the gun and slung it over her back, her gaze focused and serious.

"Those lions are your lady’s lifeline; I won’t take their lives. Hurry back and get the tranquilizer gun."

Without further hesitation, Ren Xingzhou once more revved the motorcycle and went uphill.

Meanwhile, Nan Yu, astride the lion, gripped the golden mane around the lion’s neck tight, struggling to maintain her balance.

"Good boy, behave!"

The lion underneath her roared fiercely, wildly shaking its body, trying to throw Nan Yu off.

Nan Yu pressed her body down, clinging as close as possible to the lion, hugging its neck with both arms.

She soothed, "Don’t move, I won’t hurt you."

This lion was nowhere near as intelligent as Xiao Ba and couldn’t understand her words at all, continuing to roar wildly.

The other two lions, fearful of infuriating Nan Yu and causing the Lion King harm, only dared growl threateningly from the sidelines.

The torrential rain poured down, and darkness enveloped everything.

Nan Yu felt her own weight growing heavier and heavier, so heavy it became hard to breathe, yet she still wrapped her arms around the Lion King’s neck.

"Good—"

"Roar!"

Unable to shake Nan Yu off after numerous attempts, the Lion King let out a piercing roar and, instead of shaking any further, leaped with her into the dense forest.

Nan Yu clung tight to its body, feeling countless branches pass by her back.

Occasionally, a branch would strike her body, causing her to grunt in pain.

Hearing this, the Lion King’s eyes flashed with cruelty. It aimed at a thick tree trunk and rammed its back against it.

Bang!

The tree trunk, thicker than a human body, instantly split apart and fell to the ground!

The speed was so fast Nan Yu had no time to react; her whole body was thrown violently to the ground.

She couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

Just as she thought to get up, the Lion King was already upon her, its forelegs on her stomach, pinning her down with its entire weight and rendering her immobile.

Then, it opened its massive maw and roared at her, the strong stench of blood rushing to Nan Yu’s head.

The next second, it lowered its head and aimed for her vulnerable neck.
