Chapter 85 I''ll Jump
Louis looked up and saw nche nervously biting her tender lip, her slender legs trembling
uncontrobly.
He narrowed his elongated eyes.
"Fine! Release her immediately, and I''ll jump."
nche''s ears twitched. "What? Did I mishear? Is he going to jump off the cliff to save me?" she
wondered.
The viin immediately became excited. "Really? Then hurry up and jump!"
"Don''te any closer! Even though you promised to jump off the cliff, you can''t approach me.
Stop!"
Seeing Louis still approaching them, the viin panicked and quickly pulled nche back. The
anger on Louis'' face was overwhelming, and even with nche as a hostage, the viin still
couldn''t keep his calm.
"You let her go first. I''ve examined the terrain here, and ahead is the most dangerous part of the
cliff. If I jump from there, I will undoubtedly die," Louis said, raising a finger and pointing to the cliff
edge next to the viin and nche.
"No way. After you jump, I will release her."
No one would believe such words. Even nche, who was terrified and at a loss, wouldn''t believe
it. If Louis jumped, she would be killed immediately.
"Don''te any closer. Just jump right there."
Louis didn''t listen at all but continued to approach. The viin became even more panicked and
hurriedly pulled nche back.
With a bang, the viin suddenly stumbled on a rock behind him. Both the viin and nche fell to
the ground. Seeing this, Louis immediately rushed over and pulled nche up to retreat.
The viin quickly got up, but it was toote. nche had already been saved. He was filled with
despair and anger, his eyes wide open, and he raised his knife and lunged forward.
"I''ll fight it out with you."
Louis kicked the knife out of the viin''s hand. With a crack, the viin clutched his arm and howled
in pain. The kick had dislocated his arm.
Louis finally had time to nce at the frightened nche. However, the viin picked up the knife
and pounced on them again the next second.
"Watch out!"
The sharp tip of the knife came straight at nche as if piercing through her eye.
Louis hurriedly wrapped his arms around nche''s waist, and at the critical moment, they managed
to avoid the knife. However, in their haste, both of them lost their bnce. Although they managed
to dodge the de, they were standing too close to the cliff. Then both of them tumbled off the
mountain cliff.
A scream echoed through the valley.

...
As dusk fell, nche felt her shoulders being pushed and pulled. She groggily opened her eyes,
feeling aching pain all over her body.
She saw the sky filled with golden lights, followed by a handsome face blocking the remaining light.
The owner of this face appeared calm andposed.
"Are you awake?" Louis withdrew his hand from pushing nche''s shoulder.
"Uh! Where are we?"
nche felt the roughness on her back and touched it. It was uneven small rocks.
ncing around, all she could see were towering mountains.
"We fell off the cliff. Try getting up and see if you''re injured."
nche looked at Louis nkly and shook her head, recalling what had happened earlier. The
attacker lunged at them, and Louis helped her avoid the knife, but they lost their bnce and fell off
the cliff.
nche sat up and felt that all her bones were broken. It was painful and sore. She twisted her
neck and took a nce at the steep slope. Closing her eyes, she realized they were fortunate to
have fallen from the slope instead of the cliff. Otherwise, they would have been dead.
"What about the viin?"
nche looked around but couldn''t find any trace of the viin.
Louis didn''t answer nche''s question. He wasn''t in the mood to answer such trivial matters right
now. At this moment, it was already gettingte, and the pressing issue was how to climb up from
the bottom of the cliff.
It was easy to fall, but not as simple to ascend.
Louis stood up straight, saying, "See if your phone works."
His phone was no longer usable, as it fell into the nearby ditch when they were falling.
nche reached into her pocket and found her phone, but upon turning it on, she discovered that
there was no signal.
"No signal."
Louis didn''t speak but looked up at the gorge. The dense jungle made the situation unfavorable. He
began to walk forward.
"Follow me."
"Okay."
An hourter, the two stopped in a valley. nche sat on a rock, panting heavily, her delicate
eyebrows furrowed.
"We won''t be able to make it out, will we?"
They had found many paths that seemed possible to climb up, but after a while, they discovered
that they were all cliffs and couldn''t be ascended.
Now, it was getting darker and darker, and they could asionally hear the howls of wild beasts.
The path ahead was bing increasingly indistinct.
Louis nced at nche, who was sitting on the rock, exhausted and nervous. Then he vigntly
observed his surroundings and spotted a small cottage ahead.
"There is a cottage ahead. Let''s go there first."
