Quick Transmigration: I'm the Villain's Assistant to the Protagonist

Suddenly, a strange thing happened: a monster as big as a mountain and engulfed in raging flames burst out from the depths of the ruins.

Its gaping maw roared so loudly it seemed to shatter the heavens and earth.

The white-haired youth's expression changed drastically. He reacted instantly and swiftly pulled Shen Ying into his arms.

He moved with the lightness of the wind and the speed of lightning as he sprinted away into the distance.

Shen Ying felt herself being tightly embraced by an incredibly powerful force, with the whistling wind in her ears.

The white-haired youth carried her as they swiftly traversed the valley. His breathing was slightly rapid, but his steps remained steady.

Each leap across boulders and ravines showcases astonishing agility and strength.

Behind them, the monster relentlessly pursued them, its scorching heat seemingly capable of burning everything around them to ashes.

The white-haired youth had a resolute look in his eyes. He held Shen Ying tightly and kept searching for a place to hide.

Nestled in the white-haired youth's arms, Shen Ying turned her head and saw the hideous monster. She couldn't help but complain inwardly, "What kind of bad luck have I had! I just met a handsome guy, and now I've run into this terrifying creature!"

The white-haired youth, holding her, dodged left and right, skillfully avoiding the thick tree branches blocking their path.

Shen Ying could only hear the wind whistling past her ears, and her heart was in her throat.

"Why is this monster chasing us so relentlessly?" Shen Ying shouted.

The white-haired youth had no time to respond, his attention completely focused on running through the valley.

His figure was agile and flexible, his movements swift and precise, and every jump and dodge was accurate and appropriate.

Shen Ying was extremely surprised and couldn't help but secretly exclaim, "This handsome guy is really skilled!"

Suddenly, a fast-flowing stream appeared ahead, blocking their path.

"Oh dear, is this what they call 'wolves in front and tigers behind'?" Shen Ying couldn't help but lament in her heart.

However, the white-haired youth did not hesitate at all. He hugged Shen Ying tightly, leaped into the air, and successfully crossed the stream.

But the monster was not to be outdone and jumped over right after.

"Is this monster determined to capture us?" Shen Ying asked through gritted teeth, her voice tinged with despair.

Sweat dripped from the white-haired youth's forehead, yet he still moved with incredible speed, heading towards a more secluded spot.

The white-haired youth carried Shen Ying and ran wildly until they finally found a small cave at the edge of a cliff.

"Let's hide inside first!" the white-haired youth said, panting heavily, and quickly carried Shen Ying into the cave.

The cave was extremely narrow, barely enough for the two of them. Shen Ying and the white-haired youth huddled together, barely daring to breathe.

Outside, the monster's footsteps grew closer, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"Please don't find us, please don't find us," Shen Ying prayed silently, cold sweat dripping down her cheeks.

The monster lingered outside the cave for a while, seemingly sniffing out their scent. Shen Ying's heart was pounding with anxiety.

Fortunately, the monster did not notice them and gradually disappeared into the distance.

"Phew—" Shen Ying and the white-haired youth both breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is terrifying," Shen Ying said softly.

"We need to find a way to get out of here quickly." The white-haired youth frowned, his eyes filled with worry.

Just then, a strange sound came from deep within the cave...

The strange sound echoed in the narrow cave, sending chills down one's spine.

Shen Ying unconsciously gripped the white-haired young man's shirt tightly, pressing herself even closer. Her voice trembled as she asked, "What's that sound? Is there some danger again?"

The white-haired youth patted Shen Ying's hand reassuringly and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'll go take a look."

He cautiously made his way deeper into the cave, with Shen Ying following closely behind. The further they went, the clearer the sound became, accompanied by a damp, cold wind.

Suddenly, a faint light appeared ahead. The two exchanged a glance and quickened their pace. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was a crack in the cave wall, through which the light was filtering in from the outside.

“You can get out from here,” the white-haired youth said.

They struggled to squeeze through the crevice, and the sight before them both surprised and delighted Shen Ying. Outside lay a dense forest, but it looked much calmer than the valley they had entered before.

"Finally, we've escaped." Shen Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

Before they could even relax, they heard human shouts coming from afar.

"Could there be other people here?" Shen Ying looked at the white-haired youth with suspicion.

The white-haired youth looked grave and took Shen Ying's hand, saying, "Let's go take a look first."

Shen Ying and the white-haired youth followed the direction of the shouts and saw a group of people dressed in strange clothes gathered together, seemingly performing some kind of mysterious ritual.

Their faces were painted with strange patterns, and they held various primitive weapons in their hands.

The two men crept closer, trying to see what they were doing. However, when they saw what was before them, they couldn't help but gasp in shock.

It turns out that the people of this tribe were cruelly killing some innocent animals, and the blood stained the ground.

Shen Ying couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. The tribespeople instantly became alert and turned around, their eyes filled with hostility.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass on our territory!" the tribal chief roared.

The white-haired youth shielded Shen Ying behind him and calmly said, "We only intruded unintentionally, but your actions are far too cruel."

The tribal chief sneered, "This is our tribe's tradition, and it's none of your business as outsiders!"

Just then, an elder from the tribe stepped forward. He looked Shen Ying and the white-haired youth up and down, and slowly said, "Perhaps this is divine guidance, allowing them to see our actions. Maybe this is an opportunity for change."

The people of the tribe began to whisper among themselves and discuss the matter.

Upon hearing the wise man's words, the tribal chief's face grew even more grim. He suddenly waved his hand and roared, "Don't listen to this old man's nonsense! Arrest them!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the tribesmen, armed with weapons, approached Shen Ying and the white-haired youth step by step.

The white-haired youth whispered to Shen Ying, "I'll rush out to attract their attention, and you take the opportunity to run into the woods on the left."

Shen Ying bit her lip and nodded firmly.

The white-haired youth flashed forward like a ghost, rushing towards the tribe's people. He unleashed fierce moves, causing the tribesmen to scramble to their feet.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Ying ran towards the woods on the left, as planned.

However, a few sharp-eyed tribesmen spotted her and immediately gave chase.

As Shen Ying ran, she quickly came up with a plan. Seeing some vines on the ground, she quickly squatted down and tied the vines into a simple tripwire.

The pursuing tribesmen, unaware of the danger, tripped and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the white-haired youth noticed that Shen Ying was being chased. He suddenly turned around and ran towards Shen Ying.

"Hurry up!" The white-haired youth pulled Shen Ying up and continued running.

The tribesmen were in hot pursuit.

As they passed a large tree ahead, the white-haired youth stopped, and Shen Ying also stopped, following his gaze to look at the tree, where many thick vines hung from its branches.

“Let’s climb up!” the white-haired youth said.

Shen Ying didn't think too much about it and just obediently did as she was told. The two of them quickly grabbed the vines and struggled to climb upwards.

The tribespeople ran past the big tree without a second thought, and later, when they realized they had lost track of the two men, they began searching the surrounding area.

Shen Ying and the white-haired youth tried their best to control their breathing while on the tree. Looking down at the tribespeople who were frantically searching for their missing person, they breathed a sigh of relief.
