"We'll wait a bit and then follow this path," Lin Yi said as they prepared to move on. "And look, considering his size, if he walked through here, maybe we could find some traces. Look here, could this be it?"
Just then, the hunter seemed to suddenly discover something and quickly bent down to speak with them.
Following the hunter's pointing finger, Lin Yi looked over and indeed, there was a very distinct footprint at the spot.
He carefully recalled the hooves of the prey they had just been pursuing and concluded that they appeared roughly the same.
"Yes, almost certainly, these must be his tracks."
"Then, it's likely they were left yesterday evening. With the wind and sandy soil here, in half a day's time everything would be covered up. Afterward, searching for these traces will truly become much more difficult."
"Alright, we shouldn't waste any more time here. The longer we delay, the more troublesome our task will become."
