He swung his sword and sent a red canine spirit beast flying towards him. Rong Jian exerted force on his legs and followed with a tiger leap.

"Woof, woof!" Akainu turned over and got up, barking loudly at Rong Jian, while paying vigilant attention to the sword in his hand, while rushing forward to meet the attack with his claws.

The next second, Rong Jian spun in the air and kicked hard with a whip kick.

Akainu was knocked flying and fell to the ground. A trace of confusion flashed across the dog's face. It was already paying attention to the weapons in the human's hands, so how could it be knocked flying?

However, before he could figure it out, Rong Jian grabbed his throat with his claws, and blood splattered everywhere, staining Rong Jian's fingers red.

Akainu let out a mournful cry from his throat, his eyes wide open with anger, filled with resentment.

If it could talk, it would probably ask, what is wrong with you, a human being? You hold a sword in your hand, but your killing moves are just kung fu. Are you kidding me?

Rong Jian withdrew his hand, ignored Akainu's resentful and desperate eyes, turned around and continued on his way.

Holding a sword in hand is not for fighting the enemy, but for doing chores, such as clearing away weeds blocking the way, chopping wood for the fire, cutting meat to be roasted, etc.

...Oh, mainly because he doesn't know any sword skills.

When I walked forward about a hundred steps, I suddenly heard a rustling sound from the left rear. Was there another spirit beast?

Rong Jian turned around hurriedly and looked towards the source of the sound vigilantly, only to see a young man wearing tattered clothes covered in mud rushing out from a clump of grass, with a white kitten in his arms?

The contrast was so strong that Rong Jian was stunned and speechless for a moment.

The man who rushed out was also stunned when he saw Rong Jian. Then, he widened his eyes, took a deep breath, and subconsciously hugged the white cat in his arms tighter.

“Meow!”

Perhaps it was in pain from being strangled, the white cat let out a shrill scream and scratched the boy's chin with one claw.

Rong Jian: "..." What does this action mean? Can I still steal you and make you my kitten?

The next second, the young man came running over, "Rong Jian, right? Just a reminder, run!"

Under Rong Jian's confused gaze, the young man quickly passed by him and ran away.

Did this young man know him? What did he mean by reminding him to run? Rong Jian's doubts had just arisen when he felt a strong murderous intent coming from the direction where the young man was rushing.

“Ouch~”

“Ah~Ah~”

"Ahhh~"

The howling of wolves echoed through the air. Rong Jian caught a glimpse of a gray figure from the corner of his eye and was completely shocked. What the hell? Where did a group of wolves appear in broad daylight?

Although it was just a glance, it was enough for Rong Jian to recognize that this was a spiritual beast called the Dead Wood Wolf.

It has the wood attribute and can summon dead vines to attack enemies. It lives in groups and its best skill is to surround the enemy with a large group of wolves and use the summoned dead vines to tear the enemy into pieces and eat them.

While thinking in his mind, Rong Jian's feet moved slowly. He jumped and chased after the young man, running away quickly.

Don’t say that this group of dead wood wolves are targeting the young man and will not attack him. Bah, don’t talk nonsense like that. Can’t you see the madness in the wolves’ eyes?

He had already appeared in front of the wolf pack and was seen clearly by these dead wood wolves. How could they let him go?

However... the Deadwood Wolves usually move at night and will not easily appear during the day. What did the young man in front do to anger the wolves and be hunted like this?

Rong Jian forgot the distance between him and the young man in front of him. He moved his feet, activated Tiger Leap, and quickly caught up with him. He asked, "Who are you? How do you know me?"

The young man raised an eyebrow, threw the white cat in his arms onto his shoulder, and said with a grin, "My name is Dong Shao, from Qingyue City. Like you, I'm taking the Yantian Sect's disciple recruitment test... How could I not know you, Young Master Rong?"

When Dong Shao said his name, Rong Jian already understood, but the last question made Rong Jian look a little embarrassed.

Because of his injury, the six people participating in the test had to postpone their departure time. Although this was not his intention, it is a fact that cannot be changed.

"But seriously, you're pretty impressive, brother, to be able to make Miss Yu treat you like that!"

Yu Bie Liu's attitude? Asking Rao Zhu to save him and heal his wounds? Rong Jian thought about it before leaving. Even his father thought so, so he remained silent and did not refute.

Based on his one-sided statement, no one would believe that Yu Bie Liu had any ill intentions towards him.

So Rong Jian didn't want to waste time explaining. The truth would come out one day, and there was no time to rush.

The white cat, which had finally managed to steady itself on Dong Shao's shoulder, rolled its eyes silently. It could guarantee that what its master had said was definitely what Yu Bie Liu had asked him to find a group of spirit beasts to lure over!

It's really strange that an engaged couple can appear close to each other on the surface but be enemies in private.

"Let me tell you, I met Zong Xiaoyu and Zong Xiaoqing from the Yantian Sect a few days ago, and I learned from them that Miss Yu's master is Senior Tu Gantu, also known as the Broken Wind Blade in the Yantian Sect!"

Dong Shao's eyes flashed with excitement.

"He's the idol of all sword wielders in the world, a true Nine Tribulations Realm master. It's truly enviable that you could become his son-in-law."

Rong Jian had a blank expression on his face. Who was Tu Gan? He didn't know him. The so-called master of Yubieliu had nothing to do with him.

"Nine Tribulations Realm! Tsk, if I could reach that point, my life wouldn't be lived in vain..." Dong Shao paused and grinned, "This goal is too far away. I don't think I can achieve it."

"But you have to work hard, brother. As Senior Tu's disciple, Miss Yu will definitely reach the Ninth Tribulation Realm if nothing unexpected happens. As men, how can we be outdone by our wives? Don't you think so?"

It is certain that he will surpass Yubieliu, but the reason will definitely not be such a ridiculous thing.

Not wanting to continue discussing Yubieliu, Rong Jian glanced at the wolves behind him and asked, "How did you offend these wolves?"

How did I get into trouble? Brother, I told you that I followed your wife's instructions and took the initiative to go to someone's nest and hang out. Do you believe it? You definitely don't believe it.

"Oh, don't mention it. Didn't I just step on the wolf cub of the leader wolf without paying attention? These dead wood wolves are like crazy, chasing me and won't let go. It's simply..." Dong Shao's face was full of indignation.

Rong Jian was speechless. Trampling on the wolf cub of the alpha wolf—was that a small matter? It would be strange if the wolf pack didn't chase him.

Poor him, he was dragged into this for no apparent reason. It was such an unexpected disaster!

“Awooooo ...

A howl that was different from that of other wolves was heard, followed by a response from the entire Deadwood Wolf Pack.

In an instant, Dong Shao's face turned pale.

"It's over, it's over! The leader wolf is catching up. It's a mid-level second-order spirit beast!"

Rong Jian: "..." Come on, tell me, how did you get into the wolf pack's den in broad daylight, avoid all the adult Deadwood wolves, step on the wolf cubs, and still escape?!
