Chapter 22 Wolf Pack Attack
"Chief, there are too many wolves, we can't kill them at all." The bandit was panting heavily, exhausted, and panicked as he looked at the pack of wolves that surrounded them.
"Serves you right for messing with this beast."
"It was that little wolf who caused the commotion. We thought they were fleeing refugees, so we decided to strike first..." The bandit's voice grew weaker and weaker, and his brows were covered with frost.
Blood dripped from the broadsword, and with a few drops, the wolves, their eyes gleaming green, launched a new attack. The bandits, already exhausted from the encirclement, were far less effective at fighting back. Many bandits had their hands bitten by the wolves, followed by their necks.
For a time, blood flowed incessantly, and it was impossible to tell whether it was human or wolf blood.
Seeing this, the bandit leader stopped confronting them and signaled for retreat.
"There's a saying among the people of the Central Plains: 'A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years.' Since that wretched woman is a refugee, she will surely go to Shou'an."
"The important matter is now."
"Yes, retreat."
The bandits, chased by the wolves, fled in the direction they had come from and soon disappeared from sight.
The wolf king let out a low howl, pulled out the blood-covered wolf cub, and looked grief-stricken.
Just then, a black ball of fluff rushed out. Just as the little cub was about to howl and crash into the wolf king, it was caught by a grapevine at the last second and pulled back.
The wolves growled incessantly. Lin Zhaozhao, seeing that Xiao Guai was clearly a bit stressed, asked Grapevine to take the little black ball to find Li Xiujuan and the others.
After the two cubs left, Lin Zhaozhao looked at the wolf king. The two stared at each other, their expressions tense, until she heard a faint panting from the wolf cub. Lin Zhaozhao glanced at it briefly, used her special ability to investigate, and realized that the wolf cub could still be saved.
Although she lost a lot of blood, her heart was not damaged. If it were her heart, Lin Zhaozhao would be powerless to help.
Activating his supernatural power, the wolf cub, which was on the verge of death, gradually regained its vitality and its breathing became heavier. A look of disbelief flashed in the wolf king's eyes, and then he licked the wolf cub as it staggered to its feet.
"Awooo!" The wolf cub seemed to like Lin Zhaozhao and let out a soft, childish cry. Just as it was about to run toward Lin Zhaozhao, the wolf king grabbed it by the neck and flung it toward the mother wolf behind it.
Then the wolf king lowered its head and nudged the wolf on the ground with its muzzle.
Looking at the wolf's expectant eyes, Lin Zhaozhao shook her head helplessly, "They've fallen silent, there's nothing I can do."
The expectation in the wolf king's eyes faded, and it raised its neck high, howling at the sky. The other wolves echoed in response, making way for the wolf king to walk away, with the rest of the wolves following closely behind.
Soon, the wolf pack disappeared, leaving only the corpses of wolves and bandits on the ground.
Lin Zhaozhao held her breath and examined everything carefully, and she did indeed discover some abnormalities.
These dead bandits were noticeably taller and had deep-set eyes than the people of Daliang, indicating they were foreigners. What was the purpose of these groups of foreigners, disguised as bandits, invading Daliang, burning and looting?
And it's still stuck on the edge of Shou'an.
