Chapter 630. Dry-Vine Gourd
The raven continued to watch them, as if it lacked the motivation to move. The red-cloud donkey now drifted over to Han Sen's side, which had more people, and neighed at them every now and again.
Seeing the red-cloud donkey come closer, Xu Dong Jin felt at ease. If it was the raven that chose to come after them, the danger would be far worse.
There was a chance of surviving the pursuit of the murder-donkey, but not the raven. If it was the raven that chose to be upon them, there would be no hope of survival.
Although they felt great remorse for the selfless deed Chen Ran had proposed, they each wanted to live. And it was because of this they were thankful in their hearts and gratefully relieved, as well.
When the timer reached zero, Chen Ran shouted "Run!"
Chen Ran bolted out from beneath the bones as fast as the morning light.
Seeing Chen Ran run, Xu Dong Jin's vigor was re-instilled. He and his people left their end of the skeleton, too.
The Queen was about to leave with them, but Han Sen pulled her back. She turned to him with a bewildered look, not understanding why he did not want to run.
But quickly, the Queen realized what was happening. The raven had taken flight, but its target was not Chen Ran. It had flown towards the skull.
