"Anying, we can't worry about that much now. I must take the initiative and drive them away from here."

As he spoke, Ye Chen stood up eagerly from the bushes and quickly moved from there.

Of course, the direction of Ye Chen's movement, including the sound of the wind caused by his speed, could still be detected by these two vigilant beasts.

They slowly turned their heads for a glance, and then one of the beasts slowly stood up from the ground.

It suddenly opened its gaping mouth wide, and just the sight of that mouth opening would send shivers down anyone's spine.

Hiding inside the tent, Anying clearly saw all of this through the night vision device in his hand.

"Ye Chen, he, he's already opened his mouth, be careful."

Anying shouted loudly in Ye Chen's direction. Although Ye Chen heard it clearly, he didn't have time to respond much.

Even if it opened its massive mouth, so what? Ye Chen had already witnessed this scene this afternoon, so it wasn't terrifying to him at all.

Besides, when had Ye Chen ever been afraid of anything?

Thinking of this, Ye Chen gradually accelerated. Since the other party was already preparing to attack him, he must quickly nip this thought in the bud.

Only this way could he avoid any future worries. Also, it was just one beast now; if both attacked simultaneously, Ye Chen might not be able to cope.

Finally, Ye Chen suddenly leaped into the air, just like in the afternoon, aiming for the creature's lower back to kick it hard.

However, Ye Chen noticed that at this moment, the huge creature suddenly turned around and sat back on the ground, tightly protecting another animal in its arms.

Watching all this, Ye Chen was suddenly stunned, hurriedly withdrew his foot, and slowly landed back on the ground.

Unexpectedly, the beast's first reaction wasn't to attack him, nor did it take any defensive measures against him. Instead, it blocked its entire body in front of the other beast.

It was obvious it was worried that Ye Chen might suddenly harm its companion.

It's often said that beasts have no emotions, but seeing this, Ye Chen indeed felt a little surprised.

Slowly, Ye Chen took two steps back. He was now very close to the two beasts.

However, the other big creature kept holding the other one tightly, seemingly giving Ye Chen no chance at all.

Even if Ye Chen wanted to attack, he could only target the outer one now.

But for some reason, at this moment, Ye Chen suddenly felt he really couldn't make a move.

It was strange—they were clearly here for revenge; why now were they here protecting each other, with no intention whatsoever of attacking him?

Since there was no intention to attack him, then why open its big mouth? What did opening its massive mouth signify?

Could it merely be a way of expressing itself? Yet this expression was indeed hard to fathom.

Ye Chen slowly attempted to get closer, but the monstrous beasts remained tightly huddled. At this point, Ye Chen clearly saw they trembled slightly before him.

"What's happening? Are they afraid of me now?"

When Ye Chen noticed this, he looked down, observing one of the creature's stomach wounds, which was starting to ooze a yellow liquid.

Seeing this, Ye Chen realized that the beast's wound must have gotten infected.

Something so seriously injured, in such a critical moment, Ye Chen could not take advantage of it.

But why did they come together? Could it be they were seeking help from him?

"What are you really here for?"

Ye Chen inadvertently blurted out these few words. Although he knew they couldn't communicate, he was unsure how else to express himself at that moment.

If they really weren't going to attack him, then Ye Chen decided to let them go, guarding the tent's entrance, as long as they didn't attack, he wouldn't take any measures against them.

Upon hearing Ye Chen's voice, one of the creatures slowly turned its head.

It then pointed to the stomach wound of the other injured creature.

Ye Chen approached for a closer look, finding the wound indeed infected.

It seemed, in this island's climate, such wounds couldn't be left exposed for long and needed quick treatment, or it would become more troublesome.

"What do you mean? Are you asking me to help treat this wound?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Ye Chen said this, the creature gently nodded.

Ye Chen was genuinely surprised at this moment.

Meaning the creature could understand his words?

Even though it was a primate, could it really understand human language? If that's the case, how could this all be explained?

"You didn't come here for revenge against me?"

After speaking, that one gently shook its head.

Seeing all this, Ye Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what had happened to them, at least at this moment, Ye Chen knew they hadn't intended to truly harm him.

"Alright, if that's the case, then support it over to my tent, and I'll fetch some medicine. That way, I can help you handle the stomach wound, got it?"

He said this without knowing if the creature could understand such a lengthy instruction.
