The strange wolf was hit so hard by the cane that its head spun, and it shook its head several times before barely regaining its senses.
It didn’t understand why it couldn’t dodge the attack from a regular human.
How could this human stop it with just a wooden stick?
What made it even more incomprehensible was that when the wooden stick came down, it felt a chill run down its spine as if it would have been decapitated if the stick had been a sword.
Is this human… very strong?
The wolf stared at the backs of the three retreating figures, its eyes filled with confusion.
If this human is so strong, why is he running?
So this human must be weak, and it was just a coincidence!
Chase!
The wolf finally understood. Its speed was fast, and it reached Chen Huaian in just a few leaps.
Its eyes shone brighter as it focused on the human’s neck.
On Chen Huaian’s back, the illusory black dragon was gradually solidifying.
In a split second, Chen Huaian accidentally stepped on a stone.
His body instantly lost balance, and two lightning fire talismans slipped out of his chest and fell to the ground. His leg also lost balance, and he kicked backward.
This kick came unexpectedly but hit the wolf squarely on the chin.
Crack!
Boom!
With the sound of a jawbone breaking, the strange wolf was sent flying and rolled into a thicket.
Chen Huaian fell flat on his back.
Su Xingchen and the photographer, who were still running ahead, saw this and quickly returned to help him up.
“Don’t, you guys should keep running!”
Chen Huaian’s face turned pale from pain. He wasn’t sure what he had kicked, but he felt like his ankle bone might be fractured.
He didn’t look back, thinking the wolf was chasing them.
“How can we leave? We should go together. Let’s hurry before the wolf catches up.”
Su Xingchen bent down, and together with the photographer, they helped Chen Huaian up.
Chen Huaian finally turned around to look at the empty space behind him, puzzled.
He clearly felt the wolf attacking, how could it disappear so suddenly?
Strange, very strange.
…
At the same time, deep in the thicket.
A strange wolf with a broken jaw staggered to its feet.
Compared to being hit by the wooden stick, its mind was now even more confused. It heard a buzzing in its ears, and its jaw felt like it had been hit by a metal box, causing intense pain.
This pain ignited its ferocity.
Its green eyes gradually turned red, breathing heavily as its body inflated like a balloon. Its thick fur stood up like sharp steel needles.
Since gaining higher intelligence, this was the only human that caused such pain to it, making it recall the day it was hit by the metal box.
Humans, all should die!
This mountain was once their territory, but now it has become a leisure garden for humans. They were driven deeper into the forest, forced to be wary of those fast-moving metal boxes.
Why?!
“Ow-oooh!”
The wolf howled as it charged out of the thicket.
With a regal presence, it was fierce and full of killing intent.
The dark night embraced it, cheering it on.
The wolf swore to make those who humiliated it pay.
Its keen sense immediately locked onto the three scents.
Running on four legs, it was as fast as lightning.
Then, it stepped on one of the lightning fire talismans.
Huh?
Boom!
…
Chen Huaian, who was fleeing, froze.
Why does this thunder sound familiar? Where have I heard it before?
“Why is there thunder? It’s supposed to be sunny today,” Su Xingchen also felt something was off. There seemed to be a smell of burning in the air.
Supporting Chen Huaian, Su Xingchen and the photographer soon became exhausted. Fortunately, they found a small wooden cabin. The three entered the cabin and closed the door, temporarily hiding.
Chen Huaian sat by the door.
He felt that his right foot no longer hurt.
However, as a disabled person, he didn’t want to reveal it too soon. What if the show producers ask him to pay back the money if he messed up?
“Huai’an, why are you sitting by the door? It’s dangerous.”
Su Xingchen tried to pull Chen Huaian inside.
Chen Huaian looked up, waved his hand, and said calmly,
“If that wolf comes in, I can block the door and buy you both a chance to escape. You can then flee through the window. Since my life is almost over, saving me means you owe me a life, and I will repay you.”
Su Xingchen’s eyes reddened again, pouting as he sat next to Chen Huaian, sniffing, “Huai’an, you’re too kind! I’ve already called the police, everyone will be fine!”
“Overpraising me, I’m just an ordinary person.” Chen Huaian wanted to play a game on his phone but noticed the camera was still on him.
Chen Huaian was stunned, “Wait, you’re still recording?”
The sweat-drenched cameraman smiled, showing his white teeth, “Hehe, professional ethics.”
…
Five minutes earlier—
“Ahh! The wolf ate someone! Wolf ate someone! Ahh!”
“Hehe, the wolf is coming,
hehe…”
Cai Yifan writhed on the twisted car door. Others huddled in the half-car, trembling.
Not far away, a giant wolf lay in a pool of blood.
Compared to before, its body had swollen to about four meters.
A true monster!
Initially, they thought hiding in the car would save them, but the giant wolf saw the car as nothing more than a toy to be dismantled.
Next to the wolf’s corpse stood a teenage girl in high school uniform, holding a gun whose tip still dripped blood. Yellowish-white matter stuck to it—brain matter of the strange wolf.
Lin Lingling wiped the blood from her cheek and walked expressionlessly to Cai Yifan. This star had her leg bitten off, and as she approached, she continued mumbling, clearly losing her mind.
“Tsk, a Shaolin layman? Such poor mental fortitude?”
Lin Lingling was speechless.
Thinking back to when she used to admire Cai Yifan made her feel sick. Luckily, becoming a Demon-Slaying Master had demystified her view of celebrities.
Celebrities mean nothing.
This world is much more exciting than she imagined.
Before everything erupted, to maintain social stability, everything was suppressed, but the truth couldn’t be hidden forever. Exposure was inevitable.
“Um, Miss Hero?”
Zhang Dao wasn’t sure if this was the right way to address her.
Carefully, he said, “There’s another wolf chasing the other three people westward. Please save them.”
“Another one?!”
Lin Lingling’s eyes widened, her silver teeth clenched.
Those people barely survived even with the car’s protection.
The other three, without any cover, were probably already dead.
Damn, damn!
Lin Lingling, if your senses were more acute, how could such a tragedy happen?
Without hesitation, the girl sped up towards the west.
She already smelled the demon aura in the air.
Urgent!
Just then,
the sky in the west suddenly lit up.
“Boom!”
Lin Lingling paused, her eyes wide, seeing a flash of lightning in the dim sky.
Thunder fell, sweeping away evil.
The wolf’s aura vanished instantly.
‘Fellow practitioner.’
Lin Lingling sensed a neutral and peaceful energy in the lightning and concluded instantly.
Moreover,
a super powerhouse!
