Liu Cuiming stumbled into the wolf cubs' den by mistake.

At that moment, she was holding a half-dead pheasant in her hand.

The pheasant was clearly the wolf pack's spoils. Only when Xu Yuehuai arrived did Liu Cuiming burst into tears.

"That scared me to death, it really scared me to death!"

At that moment, Xu Yuehuai heard various rustling sounds. She then looked up and suddenly saw wolves everywhere in her field of vision.

The pack of hungry wolves, with their long, dark tails, surrounded the three of them.

The wolf pack was watching them intently.

Following closely behind, a magnificent white wolf appeared, surrounded by a multitude of stars. The wolf shook its head and swayed its body, displaying a mature and composed demeanor, yet it walked with the elegant and slow grace of a Persian dancer.

The three men shuddered at the sight of the white wolf.

Immediately afterwards, the stench unique to animals wafted over.

"Destroyed! Destroyed!"

Only then did Liu Cuiming realize that the wolf pack had grown to such a large number.

Xu Yuehuai was surprised to find that the wolves were not afraid of them at all. The wolves were a well-trained fighting group, and at this moment, the wolves were waiting for the white wolf to give them a command.

Xu Yuehuai wrapped the cloth around her sleeve and tied a knot with practiced ease before scanning the person opposite her with her sharp eyes.

"That's a wolf."

Ah Qi said in a muffled voice.

Xu Yuehuai nodded.

Ah Qi added, "We must kill the alpha wolf. Once it's gone, the rest will be leaderless."

Xu Yuehuai stared coldly into the distance as the wolf pack moved frantically and rapidly, each searching for a stronghold. Clearly, Liu Cuiming was their bait.

The wolf pack's purpose was to rescue Liu Cuiming.

Liu Cuiming was pale and trembling.

She wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. Xu Yuehuai then warned, "Now you know the importance of cooperation. You should also be careful when you're alone."

In fact, the direct cause of Liu Cuiming's danger was... her blind belief that she could find food here. If Xu Yuehuai and the others had arrived any later, Liu Cuiming's next plan would have been to light a fire and make barbecue.

"What do we do now?"

"Can Auntie climb trees?"

Xu Yuehuai pointed to a tree behind her.

It was a large tree with a huge canopy.

The tall tree rises from the ground, its branches thick and reaching for the clouds.

Clearly, Liu Cuiming knew that he would be safe as long as he hid in this large, leafy tree. Before Xu Yuehuai could remind him of any precautions, Liu Cuiming had already slid up the tree.

Xu Yuehuai was surprised.

"I never imagined she was so amazing."

Ah Qi said, "In a truly perilous situation, a person's explosive power is incredible."

Seeing Liu Cuiming climb the tree, Xu Yuehuai pointed to the white wolf and said, "Let's work together."

"Give it your all!"

Ah Qi stared intently at the pack of wolves. "I'll lure the wolf cubs away. Grandma, you take care of the white wolf."

The white wolf bears a crucial responsibility within the wolf pack.

But like any team, the leader is the least likely to possess other skills.

Ah Qi grabbed the vine and leaped forward.

Xu Yuehuai saw that Aqi was using a feint and naturally understood what was going on. She moved very fast, like lightning, and the white wolf turned around nimbly and let out a loud howl towards the sky.

At this moment, countless black wolves surrounded them.

The wolves probably underestimated Xu Yuehuai's abilities. She wielded the tetanus dagger with unparalleled skill, and with A Qi's assistance, she quickly closed in on the white wolf.

A pack of black wolves formed a semi-circle, protecting the white wolf inside.

Xu Yuehuai defeated them one by one.

As she attacked, she searched for the white wolf and the wolf pack's weaknesses.

At this very moment, in the quiet of the night, in a distant inn, Qi Guze frowned.

"Is this the only clue you've obtained? So, the Crown Prince must be nearby?"

Going back in time, the crown prince disappeared seven years ago, and now he is an eleven-year-old boy.

After the Crown Prince went missing, the current emperor became depressed.

The older I get, the more I want to see my son.

In this way, Qi Guze took on the task of searching for the Crown Prince in the city.

But the crown prince has vanished without a trace. The only clue now is brought by his subordinate: "He's nearby. We still need to go all out."

Seeing that everyone was already showing some clues, Qi Guze decided to give it a try, regardless of whether it was right or wrong.

Finding the crown prince is no easy task.

That night, he seemed to hear something, “it sounded like wolves howling.”

Tie Xiong held his longsword and glanced sideways into the distance.

At the edge of the horizon, the only thing visible was a massive, jagged mountain range, with no other visible structures. "Yes, wolves are howling."

Qi Guze got up and stood at the second-floor window, glancing into the distance.

Suddenly, his heart sank.

As if struck by a thought, she said, "They look so alike, don't you think?"

Having spent many years with Qi Guze, Tie Xiong, as his master's right-hand man, naturally knew what Qi Guze meant by those words. "In truth, when I saw him just now, I also felt quite strange."

They were talking about Ah Qi.

Ah Qi and the current emperor look remarkably alike.

They had the same high nose bridge, big, dark eyes, double eyelids, and a clear yet dignified gaze.

But at this moment, Qi Guze didn't think much about it.

Meanwhile, in the distant canyon, Xu Yuehuai had gone berserk.

Liu Cuiming shivered in the tree canopy.

"Watch out behind you, you little thing!"

She wasn't genuinely concerned about Xu Yuehuai.

Instead, he hoped that Xu Yuehuai would win a great victory, otherwise how long could he hold out?

At Liu Cuiming's reminder, Xu Yuehuai dodged the wolf pack. Even though the wolf pack was very fierce, they did not gain any advantage over Xu Yuehuai.

Ah Qi arrived quickly.

Ah Qi is highly skilled in martial arts and ruthless; the way he wields his knife is nothing like that of a child.

Many wolves lay paralyzed in pools of blood. Seeing the situation was dire, the white wolf turned around and howled at Xu Yuehuai. In no time, a new group of warriors surrounded them again. Xu Yuehuai leaped and landed beside the white wolf.

The white wolf never expected Xu Yuehuai to be so powerful.

The white wolf let out a howl and attacked Xu Yuehuai.

Provoked, Xu Yuehuai gripped her dagger; she dodged quickly, but attacked even faster.

The remaining firepower was drawn away by Ah Qi.

At that very moment, the wolves under the tree began to pile on top of each other.

In this way, they quickly approached Liu Cuiming above. Liu Cuiming waved his arms and shouted loudly, breaking off pieces of wood and throwing them down from time to time. The wolves ignored him. One wolf had already jumped up in mid-air and landed with a splash next to Liu Cuiming.

Liu Cuiming was terrified, but the wolf suddenly pounced.

"Help! Help!"

Knowing that his chances of survival were slim, Liu Cuiming dodged to the side.

The wolf's bite force was so powerful that when Liu Cuiming looked again after narrowly escaping, the wolf was already gnawing on the tree trunk. Without thinking, Liu Cuiming punched the wolf in the back of the head.
