Yun Li and the other three members of the group took up positions in four directions, lying in ambush. In the center, several bloodied chickens and ducks were laid out upon the Immortal Spirit Net. By the time they finished their preparations, it was already dusk. As the sky grew dark, Yun Li pricked up her ears, carefully listening for any movement in the surroundings. However, after waiting for nearly two hours, there was no sign of a beastly roar, nor did the sorcerer appear. Yun Li frowned; could it be that he had grown wary because of yesterday’s events?
Another hour passed, and the sorcerer still had not arrived. Aside from a few birds calling out, the bamboo forest remained deathly silent. Yun Li pondered the situation: since the beastly roars occurred at night, it stood to reason that the sorcerer did not venture out during the day. She did not believe that he would stay away for several consecutive nights just because he had failed to appear once.
Just as Yun Li was turning these thoughts over in her mind, she faintly heard a few beast-like roars. Thinking her ears might be playing tricks on her, she listened again several times, finally confirming that the sorcerer had returned to the bamboo forest.
