It's Getting Serious

After the six-footed, hairless cat came out, the earth finally quieted down. Those huge cracks and the large hole created by the cat were left on the ground, showing people that something had come out from underground in that area.

"Did that creature… fly away?" Jingyan and Yan Xiao both landed on a tree near Lin Qiao, staring at the sky as they murmured.

"No," Lin Qiao shook her head and said, "It ran away."

It didn't fly; it just moved so fast that the others didn't even manage to capture its movement with their eyes before it disappeared.

Lin Qiao dropped her head and glanced at the quiet hole on the ground, then leaped off the tree, flashing down to the devastated highway.

"Chief!" Seeing Lin Qiao show up in the middle of the highway, the others gave a start. They were worried that she might turn into a puff of sand as those trees did.
