They had a distant encounter with a snow leopard.
The snow leopard quickly turned and ran away.
Chen Ying didn't pursue and continued driving forward with Ji Xin.
This grassland couldn't precisely be claimed as anyone's permanent territory.
Sister Lynx had only temporarily taken over a spot here, and because the food was so abundant, the previously life-threatening predators were able to coexist peacefully, for now.
But in a couple of days, the situation would change.
As the Tibetan antelopes returned to their habitat, the predators following them would also leave with their departure.
The no-man's land was vast, and once spread out, the quest for food would come down to a fight of strength.
They followed a path that had been eroded over a decade or so, where a group of wild yaks were leisurely grazing by the roadside.
In the summer, the grass here was lush and nutritious; come autumn and winter, the large creatures would also slowly start migrating outwards.
