Chapter 2656: No Injuries
The elderly man told the middle-aged man and instructed Guo Xinning. “I’ll hand this over to you. Keep persisting. When we repel the Wolf King, the wolf pack might also flee!”
Guo Xinning slew a wolf with his sword and said, “All right, Elder and Uncle Sun, be careful!” As soon as he uttered these words, he observed that the two men raised their vital energy and set off to find the Wolf King.
Due to the small size of their team and the large number of wolves, there was no question that they would be defeated after a prolonged battle. The present strategy was to repel the Wolf King so that the wolves would retreat.
It’s just…
He looked at the disciples around him who were red-eyed and their bodies were covered in blood. The wolf beasts’ fierce onslaught caused them to lose their usual composure so that they had become agitated and panicked.
He couldn’t help but search the crowd for the Xie siblings and Feng Jiu. He wanted to go over to them after seeing them forced to retreat to the corner, but he couldn’t because of the crowd. All he could do was fight while walking toward them.
Xie s.h.i.+si had never seen so many wolves emerge at once, especially with their sharp teeth exposed and saliva flowing from their mouths as they attacked. The wolves’ ferocious and bloodthirsty appearance terrified her. She hid behind her brother’s back and dared not look again.
Xie Yutang continued to hack and kill the wolves with the blade in his hand. He heeded Feng Jiu’s advice and used the large tree behind him as cover so that he did not have to worry about the wolves behind him and could concentrate on the ones in front of him.
However, he had to fight with his sister behind his back, and his physical strength was quite limited. After a battle, his physical strength gradually diminished and his attacks and defences got slower as a result.
When he saw a fierce beast coming, he turned white with fear. At that moment, the sword in Feng Jiu’s hand pierced the wolf’s body and flung it away. He looked at the person in front of him with his heart pounding and his lungs gasping for air.
…
He was sure he was going to die.
“Lean on the tree and take a rest behind me.” Feng Jiu said without turning around,acting as a barrier in front of them to protect them from danger.
These wolves were child’s play to her, but she had no intention of solving the Guo family’s problem. One reason was that their battle strength was not weak. Even if they were to sustain injuries as a result of this battle, they would not be fatal. The other reason was that if she did anything in her current ident.i.ty, it would naturally draw people’s attention and cause unnecessary trouble.
So, she would fight! In any case, all she needed to do was protect the Xie siblings. What difference does it make whether the others are dead or alive to her?
She cast a glance at Guo Xinjie’s weak legs, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her lips. Guo Xinjie had diarrhoea the entire night. He was attacked by wolves before his physical strength had recovered. His b.l.o.o.d.y wounds were severe, and if it hadn’t been for the men who stood by him, he would have been devoured by wolves by now.
...
After a lengthy battle, it appeared that the Guo family could no longer bear it. Even Guo Xinning was sc.r.a.ped up by wolf claws. Suddenly, in the midst of the night, a wolf’s howl was heard. The other wolves in the pack howled in response to this cry. Despite their reluctance, the wolves ultimately left quickly.
The Guo family fell to the ground one by one as they watched the wolf beasts run away.
When Guo Xinning went to check on Feng Jiu and the two siblings, he saw that none of them had any injuries. He couldn’t help but just stare at them blankly.
