Chapter 2
The battle soon began. Nineteen gigantic blood wolves, each nearly one meter tall and two meters long, let out heart-shaking howls as they galloped all the way.
Their blood-red fur glistened under the afterglow of the setting sun. Their white fangs carried an aura of death, forming a very visually impactful picture.
The Blood Wolf King, in particular, was like a peerless expert that looked down on the world. It was insufferably arrogant as it charged forward, wanting to tear apart all living things in front of it.
“Fire!”
A stern shout came not from the guard captain, Su Jianfei, but from the masked young lady who walked out of the luxurious carriage.
At this moment, all the guards were hiding behind the carriage with crossbows in their hands. Under the young lady’s command, they pulled the triggers in unison. More than forty black crossbow bolts whistled through the air.
“Tuk, tuk, tuk!”
The blood wolves were already within a hundred meters of the carriage. At such a close distance, the crossbow bolts were the most lethal.
The speed of the crossbow bolts was very fast. An average person would only be able to see more than forty black lines and the reflection of the steel arrowheads.
However —
Such terrifying crossbow bolts hit the blood wolves’ blood-red fur, but they were like tiles hitting the surface of water, all sliding away.
The blood wolves’ red fur glowed with a faint red light when the crossbow bolts hit them, making the surface of their bodies become slippery.
Only two crossbow bolts hit two of the blood wolves’ blood-red mouths, causing them to roll on the ground and howl in pain.
The blood wolves’ miraculous ability caused a commotion among the guards. The young lady, who was wearing a fox fur coat and a veil, didn’t reveal the slightest bit of panic in her beautiful eyes. She said indifferently, “Second-class dire beast blood wolf, the innate ability blood armor is indeed worthy of its name!
Continue to fire, but pay attention to the mouths and eyes. Grandma Liu and Su Jianfei, prepare to defend against the blood wolf king’s attack. ”
The young lady’s calmness weakened the guards’ panic. They quickly loaded the crossbow bolts and looked for targets to shoot.
However, the blood wolves were too fast. They couldn’t lock on to their mouths and eyes, so they could only shoot randomly.
Dozens of crossbow bolts hit another blood wolf. A red shadow had already arrived in front of them. The blood wolf’s scarlet mouth emitted a fishy stench that was nauseating.
“Kill!”
The old woman took the lead and shouted. She raised the dagger in her hand, and it reflected a cold light under the afterglow of the setting sun. Her body slid along the ground, and when she got close to the carriage, she suddenly jumped up and fiercely stabbed at the mouth of a howling blood wolf.
Bang!
The Bloodwolf King pounced over with a gust of wind, its sharp claws ruthlessly scratching a carriage.
In an instant, the carriage was torn apart. The huge force overturned the carriage, and the two guards behind the carriage who were unable to dodge in time were pressed under the carriage. The war horse, which had already raised its hooves and neighed in fear, flipped over and fell heavily to the ground.
“Bastard, your opponent is me!”
The captain of the guards, Su Jianfei, suddenly unsheathed a white longsword in his hand. With a sword cry, the white longsword streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning and slashed at the huge head of the Bloodwolf King.
Five of the guards stayed behind to protect the masked girl, while the rest of the guards split into groups of two, one attacking and one defending. Each of them faced a Blood Wolf.
After a long period of fighting, they had cultivated enough tacit understanding. The most beautiful young lady of the Su Clan was watching the battle from behind, which also made their blood boil. For a moment, their momentum was like a rainbow, easily suppressing the charge of the Bloodwolf King.
However … the situation quickly reversed!
The red fur of the Bloodwolf King would light up with a red light every time the guards chopped down their weapons.
Under the red light, the Bloodwolf King turned into a loach, and when the weapons fell, most of the force would be absorbed.
After a round of confrontation, except for the old woman who seriously injured two Bloodwolf Kings, the rest of the guards didn’t do anything.
The captain of the guards, Su Jianfei, seemed to attack fiercely and with great momentum, but he didn’t cause any damage to the Bloodwolf King.
If it wasn’t for the tacit understanding of the guards, there would have been immediate casualties.
Fortunately, the Bloodwolf King was shocked by the rain of attacks from the guards. They only wanted to dodge and didn’t start to counterattack.
It was obvious that once the Bloodwolf King stabilized, the caravan would immediately begin to collapse …
“Sigh …”
The beautiful young lady faintly sighed. She seemed to have already known this outcome. She shook her head slightly and said, “Su Jianfei, take ten people to cover the rear, the rest retreat.”
“No way!”
The old woman waved her dagger and suddenly slid it across the jaw of a Bloodwolf King, bringing up a mist of blood. She turned back and shouted anxiously, “Young Lady, the goods can’t be left behind. This is your first time traveling, and you must not return with a failure.”
“Ha!”
Su Jianfei’s white longsword spat out waves of qi, causing the air to curl up. He used his One Era of Total Annihilation to force the Bloodwolf King to retreat. He also turned back and shouted sternly, “Young Lady can’t retreat, trust me.”
There was no trace of emotion in the young lady’s eyes. She was extremely calm. She turned around and walked into the carriage. An incomparably firm voice came out: “If the goods are gone, you can buy them again. A failure in a business trip doesn’t mean anything. If you die, everything will be gone!
This is an order. Those who don’t listen will be expelled from the Su Clan. If you die … it will be in vain. ”
The young lady’s somewhat fickle words made everyone’s body tremble and incomparably moved.
The luxurious carriage began to run wildly into the distance. All the guards attacked crazily to force the Bloodwolf King to retreat before turning around and began to follow.
“Go!”
The old woman let out a mournful roar and kicked a Bloodwolf away. She then rushed towards the luxurious carriage.
“Eh?”
The moment she turned around, she suddenly saw something and was bewildered. Her expression immediately changed as she shouted, “Child, are you crazy?
Run quickly! ”
The old woman’s voice caused a group of people to turn around in surprise. Su Jianfei also blankly followed the old woman’s gaze.
In everyone’s line of sight, a youth wearing a beast skin robe was dragging a huge black wooden sword and was quickly approaching.
His dog seemed to be scared silly as it was still lying on the ground and watching its master rushing towards the Bloodwolf King …
Xiao Chen!
The old woman still remembered this youth’s name, but at this moment, she and everyone else thought that this child should be called Idiot. Could a normal person … do such a thing?
Did he think that he could rely on that frail body and that imposing wooden sword to repel the ferocious Bloodwolf King?
The answer was yes!
The youth suddenly began to accelerate. The wooden sword dragged on his back left a groove on the gravel-covered ground, bringing up a burst of dust.
His speed was getting faster and faster, so fast that everyone’s eyes became misty.
“Swish!”
A whistling sound pierced through the air. The huge wooden sword was suddenly raised, and with an earth-shattering power, it suddenly smashed down on the back of a blood wolf.
“Crack!”
The sound of bones breaking echoed. The Bloodwolf King’s Bloodarmor Divine Ability couldn’t resist the powerful power of the wooden sword.
That Bloodwolf’s entire waist was dented, and half of its body was slashed into the ground. The nearby ground had small cracks.
“This …”
Su Jianfei’s mouth was opened wide enough to swallow an egg.
The old woman stopped running, and many guards were also stunned in place.
They all looked at the whimpering Bloodwolf that was slashed into the ground. The only thought in their minds was — how much power was needed to do this?
“Swish!”
The youth was unstoppable and continued to run. The black longsword danced in the air, leaving afterimages. Any Bloodwolf that was swept away was immediately smashed away. The stinky black blood splashed across the sky. Under the light of the setting sun, it looked dreamy and illusory.
Su Jianfei swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and murmured, “Second stage of White Tiger Realm!
How is this possible?
The first Young Master of Blood Sun City, Xue Chuihua, is only at the third stage of White Tiger Realm, right? ”
When the guards heard Su Jianfei’s words, their bodies trembled.
They were very clear that the martial artists in this world had a clear hierarchy according to their strength.
Green Bull Realm, Black Panther Realm, White Tiger Realm, Blood Bear Realm, Purple Elephant Realm!
Each realm was divided into three stages. For example, their ordinary guards were basically Green Bull Realm, and the strongest was only at the second stage of Black Panther Realm. Their captain and young lady’s personal guard, Grandma Liu, was only at the first stage of White Tiger Realm.
However —!
This youth was at the second stage of White Tiger Realm?
This was very illogical because this youth was obviously not a descendant of a great clan. Without the rich resources of the clan, how could he reach the second stage of White Tiger Realm at such a young age?
However, the facts in front of them had no choice but to believe it.
“What are you waiting for?
Counterattack! ”
A clear voice rang out, startling everyone. The luxurious carriage had returned, and the veiled girl wearing a fox fur coat was also standing on the shaft of the carriage. She looked at the youth in the distance, who was like a ferocious tiger descending the mountain, and a strange look flashed in her limpid eyes.
A youth who could travel alone in the Great Wilderness was indeed not an ordinary person. She should have thought of it …
With the addition of this unbelievably powerful and mysterious youth, the martial artists on the caravan’s side had a great boost in morale.
They were like hungry tigers released from the cage as they rushed towards the remaining blood wolves.
Su Jianfei’s longsword swung out sword shadows and became more ferocious as the battle went on. The old woman, Grandma Liu, was as agile as a ghost. When the two of them faced the Blood Wolf King, the battle was completely under their control.
“Awooo!”
After the blood wolves let out miserable cries, the Blood Wolf King howled towards the sky and brandished its claws in the air. After forcing Su Jianfei and Aunt Xin back, it turned around and began to escape.
Desolate beasts had always been very vengeful. Once a battle started, it would not rest until one of them was dead.
This Blood Wolf King already had a trace of spiritual intelligence and knew that if it continued to fight, it might be completely wiped out.
Of course … most importantly, it saw Xiao Chen’s yellow-furred dog stand up. From the cold eyes of that mixed fur dog, it felt a palpitation in its heart. That was the instinctive fear of a desolate beast facing a strong enemy …
“Victory!
We protected the goods! Hooray! ”
Looking at the wolf pack fleeing in fear and the severely injured blood wolves being killed, some of the guards cheered.
Protecting the goods meant that they would receive generous rewards when they returned to the Su Clan. They would be able to drink with beautiful girls in the best brothel in Blood Sun City for a few days.
“Su Jianfei, invite that young hero over.”
A trace of a smile flashed in the eyes of the masked young lady. She casually combed a few strands of her messy hair and quietly wiped the sweat on her forehead.
Su Jianfei put away his longsword and walked towards the young man with a respectful expression. Looking at the young man who was using a piece of cloth to wipe the blood off his wooden sword, Su Jianfei felt extremely emotional.
A few hours ago, he wanted to use his fists to tell this young man the cruelty of this world.
At this moment, the young man used the wooden sword in his hand to tell him what was called powerful.
The corner of Su Jianfei’s mouth twitched. He smiled and tried to make himself as amiable as possible. “Little brother, my young lady invites you over.”
The young man named Xiao Chen raised his head and glanced at Su Jianfei without saying a word. After wiping the wooden sword completely, he inserted it into the sheath on his back and silently walked towards the dog.
“Young Lady, let me go!”
Looking at the embarrassed Su Jianfei and the young lady who frowned, Grandma Liu strode towards Xiao Chen.
She walked to Xiao Chen’s side and smiled kindly. “Child, my young lady doesn’t mean anything else. She just wants to express her gratitude.”
Xiao Chen grinned and looked a little simple and honest. He scratched his head and said, “Grandma, you don’t have to thank me. My grandfather said that a drop of water should be returned with a spring of water.
Grandma, since you are good to me, I will help you kill those beasts. “
