One of the demon generals threw out a giant pendulum, and the other demon generals joined forces to unleash their demonic energy. With the protection of the formation, they repelled the snow monster. Knowing that it was no match for the monster, it hid in the snow and fled. However, some of the demon generals who were not strong enough were still injured.
Mu Wenxi looked at the wounded demon generals: "The wounded demon generals should return to the foot of the mountain immediately, and not delay until their lives are in danger."
Mu Wenxi and Po Jun led the remaining dozen or so people to continue upwards. The wind howled in their ears. Mu Wenxi glanced at Xie Qi in the carriage. His face was still rosy. Then they continued on their way.
As dawn broke, the group walked and stopped intermittently. Around noon, they decided to find a place to rest and have a meal before resuming their activities that evening. However, the ground began to shake. Mu Wenxi was the first to feel the tremor and shouted, "Avalanche! Run!"
She picked up Xie Qi from the carriage, and a deafening roar assaulted them. The demon generals scattered and fled. Mu Wenxi used her inner energy to quickly teleport to a safe place and put Xie Qi down, but her demon generals did not possess such profound skills and were unable to escape to a safe place.
She returned to the avalanche site to rescue her demon generals, only to find that the carriage that had been accompanying them on the road had been crushed to pieces by the heavy snow. Many demon generals lay on the ground, their faces covered in blood, and several were buried under the snow, unconscious and in a state of utter devastation.
Mu Wenxi checked the injuries of the demon generals one by one. Fortunately, none of them were in mortal danger. However, she couldn't find Po Jun anywhere. It turned out that Po Jun's martial prowess was second only to hers, but he had also been buried in the snow, probably to protect his companions.
When Mu Wenxi dug him out, his legs were twisted, but the demon general beneath him was unharmed.
"Your Excellency!"
Several demon generals began to cry.
"Lord Po Jun!"
Mu Wenxi: "Po Jun, Po Jun!"
Po Jun opened his eyes groggily, having just been struck hard, and was momentarily unconscious.
Mu Wenxi decided to take Xie Qi up alone: "It's safe now. Quickly send Po Jun back for treatment. I'll go up myself."
Demon General: "Yes."
Fortunately, everything seemed to have calmed down after the avalanche, and there were no other dangers.
Mu Wenxi carried Xie Qi away from the avalanche site. She was very fast and reached the mountaintop in just over an hour, but she did not see any ferocious beasts.
She searched left and right and finally found a cave near the top of the mountain. The ferocious beast lay in the cave, watching the tiny two people get closer and closer. It pretended to be asleep and didn't want to pay attention.
Mu Wenxi stepped into the cave, both wary and hoping to see the ferocious beast soon. When she finally saw it, she was somewhat surprised, because the beast was clearly an enormous wolf, and it looked very much like Xie Qi's original form that she had seen before.
Mu Wenxi put Xie Qi down, put his arm around him and let him lean against him, and bowed: "Senior, please save my partner. He has been poisoned by the wolf clan's deadly poison, Thousand Blood Residue."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a tremendous pressure came over. Mu Wenxi barely withstood it when the wolf's two crimson eyes suddenly opened: "It's been so many years, and I've heard Qian Canxue again."
Mu Wenxi was not frightened by the giant eyes but faced them head-on: "He is a beastman of the wolf clan. He was poisoned with the blood of a thousand remnants by the elders of the wolf clan because he refused to run away from a marriage alliance for his clan."
The wolf did not react. Just as Mu Wenxi was about to speak again, the wolf suddenly transformed into an extremely handsome man with a full head of white hair. He walked to Xie Qi's side and looked at him closely: "No wonder, no wonder."
"What do you mean, senior?"
The elder's eyes were filled with sorrow: "Back then, my wife... it's better not to talk about it. Back then, I went mad and killed a thousand of my own people. The wolf bloodline was almost wiped out. The descendants of the wolf clan used this blood to create the poison Thousand Remnant Blood, trying to poison me. Over the years, my bloodline has either died or fled. To atone for my sins, I stayed in Chasing Wolves Mountain for many years, and she was my last bloodline."
Mu Wenxi was somewhat delighted, as it seemed Xie Qi could be saved: "Then, senior, do you have a way to save him?"
"This poison can be cured with my heart's blood."
After saying this, the senior cut a wound on his chest and used his internal energy to force the blood into Xie Qi's bloodline.
A short while later, Xie Qi slowly woke up and found Mu Wenxi and a white-haired man in front of him.
Mu Wenxi: "Your poison has been cured; it was your senior who saved you."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qi knelt down and kowtowed to his senior, saying, "Thank you for saving my life, senior."
The elder gazed into the distance: "I am so glad to have met you. I can finally go see her... All these years I have stayed away to atone for my sins. I never thought that I would still have the last bloodline left."
Xie Qi looked puzzled, and Mu Wenxi explained the whole story to him.
Xie Qi suddenly realized, recalling the past: "I was born unpopular because I am your descendant. I remember that as I grew older and my appearance matured, I was recognized by the elders, who then poisoned me. Unexpectedly, a tiger woman took a liking to me. In order to ensure that the wolf clan had excellent genes, she did not choose to kill me. After I escaped, the elders chose to accelerate the poison and simply kill me."
Senior: "Perhaps all of this is fate, or perhaps it is my own doing. Let me end this. Since I saw you, my heart was pure and simple, and you have also been implicated by me, I will pass on all my life's skills to you. Are you willing?"
Xie Qi was somewhat shocked: "Senior, you..."
His face was full of regret. This ferocious wolf was probably his last relative in this world. He never expected that the senior would detoxify him, let alone want to pass on his skills to him. The senior stared at him intently. Xie Qi turned and glanced at Mu Wenxi. Seeing that the other party nodded, he firmly said to the senior, "Thank you, senior."
The senior passed on all his skills to Xie Qi, and his body, to the astonishment of the two, transformed into everything on Zhulang Mountain.
"senior!"
Xie Qi was cured of the poison and, although he had gained power, he didn't know how to use it. Mu Wenxi put his arm around him, and the two returned to the Demon Palace. The Demon Lord and the Demon Generals were very happy.
"Welcome back to the palace safely, Demon Lord and Demon Queen."
Mu Wenxi helped Po Jun up: "How are the other demon generals?"
Po Jun: "It's nothing serious."
Mu Wenxi: "That's good."
Po Jun: "Demon Lord, what should we do with those wolf clan members?"
Mu Wenxi looked at Xie Qi: "Those are your people, you decide how to deal with them."
Xie Qi nodded and pondered for a moment: "How about you teach me the cultivation technique first?"
Mu Wenxi took him to the library, where there were all kinds of cultivation techniques. Among them, she picked and chose: "You have a gentle nature and a peaceful constitution, but the cultivation technique that the senior passed on to you is extremely fierce. You must find a gentle cultivation technique to balance it out."
The two walked past rows of bookshelves. Mu Wenxi glanced at the books and stopped in front of a cultivation manual: "How about this one, 'Rebirth of All Things'? It's extremely yin and soft, which is just right to counteract and complement your extremely yang and strong cultivation manual."
