When she heard the sound of something falling on the ground, Harper peeked through her fingers which were covering her eyes and saw a familiar cold face. As fast as she could, she ran up to him and wrapped her arms tight around his neck.

"Matthew, I was so scared!"

Matthew was so close to giving her an earful, but he decided to just keep his mouth shut. When he found out that Harper had fallen off the cliff, he felt his heart stop beating. And when he finally got there, he jumped down without a moment's hesitation to try and find her. Now that she was safe and sound right in front of him, his heart had finally been put at ease.

"I'm glad to see you safe and sound," Matthew said with a straight face, even though there was a multitude of complex emotions brewing deep inside his heart. Tightly holding Harper in his arms, he was so scared that she might disappear in the next second.

"What about Fred?" Harper asked.

"He's going to make it." With that, Matthew lifted her up, carried her in his arms and left. It didn't take too lon

get out of this place?"

"Yes. There's a way out of here. Come with me." Upon saying that, Chodak turned around and headed out. After shooting a quick glance at Fred who still laid motionless on the ground, Jack had no other choice but to carry him on his back as he followed Chodak closely behind.

Matthew's guards indeed arrived and had their hands full with cleaning the battlefield at the moment, but they left a group to escort the people of Kong Clan. Although Chodak's clothes were covered with blood, he didn't waver and kept walking steadily without looking awkward whatsoever, which was in stark contrast with the others.

"Master Chodak, what are you doing here?" Jack asked with Fred on his back. "How did you find Fred?"

Chodak glanced at him, and then explained flatly, "I came here to gather some herbs. I came across Lady Harper as she was being attacked. As for this man on your back, he seemed to have completely lost it and suddenly attacked us when we found him. In the end, he was knocked unconscious by Prince Matthew."
