Chapter 470: Chapter 242: In the Mountains (Part 2)The march on the other side wasn’t going too smoothly, Troop Leader Peanut tripped and tumbled down, injuring Starlight. Maya had initially planned to have Sunlight accompany Starlight to the waterfall rendezvous point. Considering they were only 400 meters away from the rendezvous point, Starlight expressed that she could go alone, and shook off Sunlight’s hand. Maya, concerned, had everyone rest in place while she personally escorted Starlight to the rendezvous point.
