45 Seconds
"Ah!" Lou Hana yelled, surprised when her chain was released from Lu Meili's hands. Because she was pulling it so firmly, not only was the chain thrown back, her body was thrown back as well.
"B*tch!" She cursed loudly glaring at Lu Meili with disdain. Lou Hana had orders to capture the woman alive. Despite that, she wanted an 'accident' to happen.
Lou Hana arrived late to the Thunder Forest and only saw Lu Meili from the news. She was not summoned to help with the capture. Lou Hana had volunteered to hunt down the criminal who had kidnapped Long Cheng.
Lou Hana held a deep grudge for outsiders. In her mind, she believed that anyone who didn't have dragon blood must not be allowed to live, especially outsiders from another planet.
Outsiders are the ones to be despised and, it is unnecessary to show any gesture of kindness to them. Also, her leader, Long Jun, showing mercy towards the female outsider was irritating her a lot.
Lou Hana studied Lu Meili's appearance. Lu Meili's clothes and her exposed skin were mostly covered in blood and dirt. She was confused because she could not see any open wounds.
She sniffed to try to smell for anything odd. Lou Hana frowned because she smelled something familiar. It was the scent of their other prince, Long Cheng. The smell was very profound around Lu Meili.
"What did you do to Prince Cheng?!" Lou Hana asked demandingly. 'Did the prince touch this woman?' She questioned silently and found the idea appalling. 'That can't be!'
Lu Meili did not like the question. She also found the female shifter's voice irritating. It was a mixture of a growl and a cat's hissing that made her cringe a little. 'Who are you to ask me that?' She thought to herself unhappily.
"Who knows." Lu Meili answered with indifference. "It's none of your business." She added sarcastically. Then, she turned around and sprinted so to get as far away as possible from Lou Mary.
"You cannot escape!" Lou Hana declared as she immediately chased after Lu Meili.
At that moment, Lu Meili felt like doing what her junior martial sister, Mo Rin usually did when their master did not approve her request. Stomping her foot like a child mumbling that it was unfair for not getting what she wanted.
'Heh,' Lu Meili snorted. Even if she wanted to try acting like a kid, she knew that her situation was not childish at all.
Just like how she could not make fun dragon shifters keep appearing around her who wanted to capture or kill her. Two of them were directly in her line of sight. Lu Meili could still hear footsteps behind her.
"Scan results, positive. Ruby pendant close by." Lulu spoke from her communicator.
"Lulu, exact coordinates." Lu Meili uttered seriously. 'At last. A piece of good news.' She could not help but smirk. The sooner she found her pendant, the better.
Sadly, Lu Meili's voice was not soft enough to be missed by partially shifted dragons. "Who are you talking to? Do you have another comrade here?! You cannot leave!" Lou Mary asked appalled.
Lu Meili snorted as she jumped away from them before she quickly jumped to a tree and used its branch as a stepping tool. She could not leave far as Lulu was still scanning. "Lulu, how much longer?" She asked impatiently.
"60 seconds, activating third level proximity scanning mode. Countdown starts, 59.. 58.. 57.. 56.." Lulu started counting backwards for Lu Meili's benefit.
"Still planning to run? Commander! She was waiting for backup!" Lou Mary said to the shifter who had silver scaled beside her. He was not running after her like Lou Mary but, was watching intently.
Interestingly, he was holding a gold rope that glittered magically slightly. It looked exactly like her magical rope that was used to bind Long Cheng earlier.
The commander, Long Jun grunted unhappily staring at the current situation.
"I see you're stubborn as hell! We need to dispose of you ourselves! Do not let her escape!" Lou Mary yelled again to the dragon shifters who were moving after Lu Meili.
"Even though you are a woman, we cannot forgive you for what you have done to Rusan. Be prepared." Another male dragon shifter spoke seriously. He was able to keep up to Lu Meili's speed and was now sprinting beside her. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
'Slice!'
Using his claws, he sliced at Lu Meili. The male shifter growled menacingly when she was able to dodge the incoming attack by shifting her weight slightly before sending a kick to his side.
'Bam!'
'Rumble!'
"Argh!" He groaned painfully. The pain was not only from Lu Meili's attack but also because he was hit by lightning while flying away.
"Woman! Give up! We will kill you if you continue running! Do not struggle anymore! We are fair and will let you go on trial if you surrender!" Long Jun decided to move, as well.
