"Woo woo..." Around them, a large pack of wolves circled the sides and back of the convoy, relentlessly chasing them.
“Their numbers are increasing. This area is open and there’s nothing to cover or maneuver around. With so many wolves, it will be difficult for us to resist,” Fan Zeng said worriedly, looking at the wolf pack around him.
"Master Fan, Uncle Liang, the young master requests your presence." A man on horseback caught up with the two and said.
Upon hearing this, the two slowed their horses, allowing the carriage behind them to catch up, and turned to look at the injured Gai Nie inside the carriage.
"The situation is extremely critical. The enemy is the Wolf King," Gai Nie said to the two men as they looked over.
"The Wolf King?" Upon hearing this, Xiang Liang asked, "Is that the infamous leader of the assassin group known as the Night Assassins?"
“It’s him,” Gai Nie said with certainty.
"Can he control these wolves?" Tianming asked, looking at the pack of wolves running on both sides of the carriage.
“That’s right.” Gai Nie nodded and said, “With our strength, we can’t defeat these wolves.”
Tianming asked, puzzled, "Then why hasn't he made a move yet?"
Gai Nie explained, "He's waiting for the perfect moment."
"What is the best time?" Tianming still didn't understand.
"Idiot, to deal with someone known as the Night Killer, of course we have to wait until it gets dark," Shao Yu said upon hearing this.
“If we can escape this plain before nightfall, we have a chance to survive,” Gai Nie said. “Wolf packs all have their own territories.”
"Master Fan, there's a carriage ahead." Suddenly, a disciple of the Xiang family said to the group.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked ahead and saw a carriage that they were gradually catching up with. They couldn't help but feel that the person in front was incredibly unlucky to be traveling with them at this time, just as they were being pursued.
"The carriage ahead has slowed down," Fan Zeng said warily. "It might be the enemy."
Upon hearing this, everyone became wary.
Soon, they caught up with the carriage ahead and saw the people inside: a tall, handsome young man and a girl who looked to be a little over ten years old. Both of them were carrying strangely styled long swords.
"It's him." Gai Nie glanced at the person in the carriage beside him, his heart tightening with vigilance as he quickly considered his options. Although he was certain the other party wasn't one of Ying Zheng's men, Wang Han was still far too dangerous.
"Mr. Gai knows him." Upon hearing this, Fan Zeng, still keeping his gaze on Wang Han, asked Gai Nie.
“I know him.” Gai Nie nodded and said, “He is Wang Han, who constantly went to exchange ideas with the various schools of thought.”
"Is that Wang Han?" Upon hearing this, Fan Zeng and the others couldn't help but scrutinize Wang Han more closely. They hadn't expected that the person who was so admired and admired by many was so young.
"Hey, Gai Nie, long time no see. I didn't expect to run into you here. Still being chased?" Wang Han also noticed Gai Nie, turned around and smiled at him, saying, "Looks like you're badly injured. Was it because you were protecting that little brat over there?"
"Who are you calling a little brat? I protected that old man just a few days ago." Upon hearing this, Tianming immediately became furious.
“Whoever agrees, that’s who I’m talking about,” Guina retorted immediately.
"Tianming, don't be rude." Gai Nie quickly pulled Tianming back from his rage.
