A month had passed since Gu Moyan arrived here, but when Gu Mo followed him, he felt that a very long time had passed. It was as if he was stuck here forever, unable to return back.

On this day, Gu Moyan was just like usual. These days, he had used the stream to wash himself and his face. His skin was fair and rosy, and he had a pair of bright, large eyes that made him look very pretty. He had a thin frame and was not weak in any way.

As he stepped into the forest, his feet made cracking noises as they treaded on the fallen leaves. It was as if he was in a completely different situation in the forest.

He was living quite well, at least from the time he came out of the village until now.

But today might be a little different. Gu Moyan hummed to himself as he walked, jumping as he headed towards the forest he frequented.

"Roar!"

With this sound, the birds on the trees in the mountains instantly dispersed, chirping away from the forest. Gu Moyan was stunned for a second, as though he did not know how to react.

The sand on the ground gradually trembled, but Gu Moyan still stood there, and even Gu Mo, who was in his vicinity, could feel the danger.

Let's go, quickly!]

Gu Mo shouted at the youth who was standing there in a daze, but the youth could not hear him. The ground began to shake more and more violently. The youth did not seem to have any intention of running away. It was as if there was a trace of excitement in his eyes.

The enormous object that caused the ground to tremble approached them from afar. Gu Mo saw a black dot quickly running towards them from afar.

The young man's eyes were finally clear and his eyes were wide open. Only then did he finally react ? it was not something he could afford to offend.

He spread his legs and quickly ran into the forest. Using his small body, he weaved through the dense trees.

As the teenager ran, he looked behind him and noticed that he was closer to the monster. He panicked and started running again. His small body and the monster behind were both chasing each other in the forest. It was quite comical.

The youngster who was dressed in black clothes that were as black as ink, whose sleeves were covered in complicated patterns with golden threads, and whose face was warm, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, squinted his eyes as he sized up the densely packed trees on this mountain, and felt the unusual ground tremble.

He then made a gesture with his hand, and the group of people behind him quietly snuck into the forest. He then slowly walked into the forest with his hands behind his back.

The forest was silent. There were some messy footsteps and angry growls. The leaves rustled, and there was nothing else left.

The youth dressed in black slowly walked in Gu Moyan's direction with unerring accuracy.

This was the first time Gu Moyan saw someone in the forest, and it was also the most beautiful person he had ever seen.

"Save me ? ?" Gu Moyan's trembling voice cried out, and without even thinking about it, he pounced onto the gentle youth.

When the shadow guards in the forest saw someone pounce on their master, they almost instantly drew their swords. As long as that youth made a gesture, even if Gu Moyan died, he did not know how.

The surrounding area was filled with a murderous aura.

However, Gu Moyan who was in the gentle and soft embrace did not feel it at all. His face was buried under his black clothes, and he smelled the incense on it. Even though he knew it was wrong, he just didn't want to leave.

"Mo Guhan." The gentle voice slowly whispered into Gu Moyan's ear. He lightly patted Gu Moyan's back, as though he was comforting him.
