Looking at the small woman's obedient appearance, Li Qingmu chuckled softly, turned around, and embraced her slender waist, leaping down with her.
"Flap-flap-flap—"
As they descended, the bats suddenly took flight, then continued to gather at the sides, automatically making way for them.
Both Long Yue and Li Qingmu were surprised. Were these bats so obedient?
Li Qingmu and Long Yue each held a long candle, illuminating the surroundings.
"Could it be that they're afraid of the candles we're holding?"
Long Yue recalled that most insects and wild beasts were somewhat afraid of flames, thinking it might be related to the candles in their hands.
Li Qingmu shook his head, "It doesn't seem like it. These bats appear quite interesting, smarter than humans. Look, although they are gathered together, keeping a distance from us, their formation is an assault formation. In other words, if we relax even a bit, they'll attack us!"
