"Yes."

Jiang Ning took the leaf from the shaman's hand, and then heard the whistling of the tribesmen, who were summoning their celestial wolves.

Sirius gathered from all over the mountain, and Jiang Ning flipped over and jumped onto Bai Ya's back.

Red Moon sat atop Sirius's back, his voice loud and powerful: "Hunting team one, move out!"

Following Red Moon's command, the members of the hunting team grabbed their weapons and leaped onto the backs of their respective wolves, ready to set off.

They were the bravest and most elite warriors in the tribe, their mission to protect the tribe's safety and honor. Naturally, they also had to bring back their people.

Bai Ya carried Jiang Ning behind Hong Yue. Jiang Ning held the leaf in one hand, and the yarrow ash on it seemed like a compass, changing as they moved.

When they shifted direction, the yarrow ash gathered in the other direction.

Jiang Ning instructed Bai Ya to stay close to Hong Yue and occasionally guide the team in the right direction.

Hunting Team Two's hunting area is different from Team One's, and the terrain here is unfamiliar to Jiang Ning.

When Mo and his companions returned to their tribe, it was nearly dusk.

Not long after we set off, the sky gradually darkened.

Red Moon knew that nighttime was when wild beasts roamed, and they had to be on high alert to avoid being attacked.

After dark, the forest became even more mysterious and dangerous. Red Moon ordered everyone to gather together and not stray too far from each other, in case of any unexpected events.

Using Sirius's night vision, they kept a close eye on their surroundings.

As night fell, the sounds from the forest grew clearer and clearer.

They could hear the howls of wild beasts in the distance and feel the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, ready to face any sudden danger.

Hongyue kept a close eye on her surroundings; her intuition told her that this night was far from peaceful.

Suddenly, he heard a strange sound, like the roar of a wild beast. He immediately became alert and warned everyone.

Hongyue reacted swiftly, directing the hunting team to avoid the beast. He knew that finding Shuiqing was the most important thing now; they couldn't waste time fighting the monster.

They continued on without stopping to rest. Thanks to their efforts, the next morning finally arrived.

As dawn broke, the ashes of the yarrow stalks began to move very slowly, which meant they were getting closer and closer to the water lily.

Jiang Ning told Hongyue to stop, and she observed the surroundings. The ashes of the yarrow were no longer moving, indicating that they had arrived near Shuiqing.

However, Jiang Ning looked around but couldn't find Shui Qing. She frowned, feeling somewhat worried.

Red Moon and the members of the hunting team also noticed something amiss. They slowed their pace and began to carefully search their surroundings.

However, despite their best efforts, the Sirius men still could not smell the scent of water.

Yun Sheng was worried about the missing Shui Qing and gradually became anxious.

Jiang Ning's unease grew stronger. She knew that the longer it dragged on, the more dangerous Shui Qing would become.

At this moment, Hongyue walked to her side and said softly, "Jiang Wu, we have to think of a way. In this situation, we must find Shuiqing as soon as possible."

Jiang Ning nodded; she understood Hongyue's meaning. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. Only by remaining calm could she find a solution.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on a clump of grass. The grass there was a little flatter than the surrounding grass, as if something heavy had been placed on it.

Everywhere you look, there are all sorts of vines and ferns, as well as unidentified wild grasses. The wild grasses grow so tall they almost drown you out. Only this one spot seems to be a little shorter.

Jiang Ning jumped onto a large tree and looked down at the haystack. To her surprise, she discovered that behind the haystack was a cliff!

The branches of the trees next to them completely blocked their view, and they might mistakenly think there was still a path to follow.

Jiang Ning's heart tightened; she realized the importance of this discovery. This meant that Shui Qing might not have noticed there was no path behind her when she escaped, and had fallen off the Tianlang horse from here.

So she jumped down from the tree and explained the situation to Hongyue and Yunsheng. Yunsheng immediately went down to find Shuiqing.

Hongyue stopped him and walked to the edge of the cliff to take a closer look. He discovered that many vines were growing on the cliff surface, making it somewhat difficult, but still manageable for the members of the hunting team to climb down.

He turned to Jiang Ning and the members of the hunting team and said, "Yun Sheng, Jiang Wu, Qing Pan, and Hong Feng will climb down these vines and see if Shui Qing is down there. The rest of you, continue searching for Shui Qing in the vicinity!"

"Yes!"

Jiang Ning and the others carefully climbed down the cliff along the vines. Their movements were slow and cautious; given the height, even a soldier falling from that height could suffer serious injury.

When their feet finally touched the hard, stable ground, a feeling of relief washed over them; they had finally succeeded in climbing to the bottom of the cliff.

The ground here was much flatter than they had imagined, and when they looked up, they found a wide valley in front of them.

The valley is covered by dense forests, and sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on the ground.

The environment here is very quiet, with only the occasional birdsong breaking the tranquility.

Just then, they discovered a cave hidden by dense foliage.

The entrance to the cave should have been very well hidden, and would not have been found at all if one did not look carefully, but now it seems to have been damaged by something.

It looks like there was a fight going on here. The trees around the cave were destroyed, and there were lots of broken branches and leaves scattered on the ground. It looked like a disaster had happened, and the place was a mess.

Hongyue and Jiang Ning exchanged a glance, both sensing something was wrong. Yun Sheng wanted to rush in, but Qingpan stopped him.

Clearly, someone or something had come out of the cave, and they had to proceed with caution to avoid falling into unknown dangers.

Hongyue immediately signaled everyone to approach the cave entrance. They slowly moved closer to the cave, gripping their weapons tightly, ready to deal with any unexpected situations.

Red Moon took the lead and entered the cave first, where a dead wolf spider came into view. Wolf spiders are large, but they don't spin silk; they have very thick chelicerae for attacking.

Seeing the dead tarantula, Hongyue and the members of the hunting team breathed a sigh of relief. Since the tarantula was dead, it was very likely that Shuiqing was still alive.

They continued walking forward and soon found Shuiqing lying on the ground, along with her celestial wolf and giant fangs.
