Fu Xiu collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain.
Linghu Lan grabbed him by the neck and dragged him forward at high speed. Fu Xiu was shaken awake a little, but he was very weak. The wolf had suffered a huge psychological trauma. The feeling of being shocked and trembling was still frightening to think about.
He asked weakly, "What exactly do you want?"
"Not so great. I'll invite you to study at the Temple Academy and introduce you to some new friends. If you're lucky, you might even find a girlfriend," Linghu Lan chuckled, speaking the truth.
Fu Xiu: "..."
His eyes darkened slightly. "You were sent by my father?"
"Your father also wants you to study at the Temple Academy? Ha! I helped him so much, will he reward me?" Linghu Lan stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowed in thought, seemingly seriously considering whether to ask Fu Xiu's father for revenge.
Fu Xiu was somewhat tempted, but pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Perhaps, his patience is almost exhausted because I've been putting off studying. If someone could help him with this, he would be very happy!"
"Heh!" Linghu Lan couldn't help but laugh. Her smile was so beautiful that Fu Xiu was momentarily dazzled. Remembering that he was still being held by this woman, he snorted coldly and looked away.
Linghu Lan smiled and said, "I like to do good deeds anonymously. It doesn't matter if your father doesn't know. The sins of the father are the sins of the son, so you can compensate me." However, looking at his wolf form, she said disdainfully, "Poor wretch! No, poor wolf!"
Fu Xiu's expression darkened slightly, and he looked at Linghu Lan with unfriendly eyes. He snorted coldly, not wanting to talk to her anymore.
Fu Xiu was tied up by Linghu Lan. The two of them, one human and one wolf, traveled by day and the other by night, heading towards the Temple Academy in Rose City. Just as they were about to leave the edge of the forest, Linghu Lan suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
She closed her eyes and focused her consciousness, which intensified the sense of crisis. She could feel a dozen or so of her kind forming an encirclement and rushing toward her.
Fu Xiu seemed to sense it too, his face turning pale. He growled at Linghu Lan in alarm, "You didn't report this to the Nacker family?"
The Knuckle family are vampires in this land and long-time rivals of the Fushu family, who are currently plotting a fatal blow. A war between vampires and werewolves seems imminent.
Vampires have an absolute sense of territory. If a new vampire wants to do something on a lord's land, he must visit the vampires in that land and obtain their consent. Otherwise, he will be considered to have violated their territorial rights, which could lead to his death.
Linghu Lan glanced at Fu Xiu silently, then gave an embarrassed smile: "This is my first time traveling so far, I forgot to let you know!"
Fu Xiu was completely bewildered, then angrily growled, "Then why aren't you running? What are you waiting for? Do you want to die? If you want to die, don't take me with you."
Linghu Lan looked at him with a half-smile: "With you here, how could I possibly die? At worst, I'll hand you over as a hostage. I think the other party would be quite happy to accept you, and then use you to blackmail your father."
Fu Xiu was completely dumbfounded. He now understood that he was a prisoner, and Linghu Lan could use him to save his life at any time. "You said you would take me to the Temple Academy, and I agreed. Let's go right now."
