Chapter 177 Could it be that they are hallucinating?
"Boss, according to him, all the deaths of our brothers are because we were too clever for our own good and brought it upon ourselves?"
"Pah, pah, pah! If she hadn't deliberately misled us, we would have captured the white tiger mother and cub long ago. There wouldn't have been so many troubles later on!"
"Yes, yes, boss, she brought up our wolf cubs, how could anyone not be nervous? In the end, it's all her fault!"
The wolf king narrowed his eyes, which blazed with fury.
It's a bit of a pity that Sheng Sheng failed to sow discord among them.
Sheng Sheng realized that she had become bad, and had even learned to sow discord between the other wolves.
Sigh, even though this is just a temporary measure, Sheng Sheng still sighed deeply for herself.
Sheng Sheng shrugged indifferently: "Whatever, think what you want."
The little dumpling shrugged, "Whatever."
Anyway, judging by the time, the Imperial Guards should be arriving soon.
Li Manyan was stunned; she couldn't believe her eyes or her ears.
She couldn't believe her eyes or ears, could she? The princess was talking to the wolves...?
No, is that right?
Was she dying, which is why she had this fantasy before she died?
The others stared at each other, wondering if they were hallucinating because they were too scared.
However, every time the princess finished speaking, the wolves on the other side howled.
They seem to be having a very pleasant conversation.
Moreover, the wolf pack, which had been steadily advancing, actually stopped and did not continue forward.
They could all sense that the wolf king's anger was growing stronger, and they didn't know why, but they could see regret and rage on the wolf's face.
Li Manyan swallowed hard, losing her usual dignified and gentle demeanor for the first time in her life. Her face was full of confusion, and she could hardly control her jaw, which was about to drop to the ground.
"Princess, you...you are talking to a wolf?"
Li Manyan herself felt that the question she asked was simply absurd. If it had been a few minutes ago, Li Manyan would never have even thought of such a question.
But this, this stark reality was right in front of her, and Li Manyan found it utterly absurd.
The others forgot that there were several angry wolves in front of them and involuntarily focused their attention on Sheng Sheng, listening intently to her answer.
Zijuan sighed, realizing she was in trouble. It seemed she had to tell His Highness to give these young ladies a good talking-to and prevent them from gossiping in the future.
Sheng Sheng remained calm, her tone rising at the end, and looked puzzled: "Hmm? Sister Yan Yan, what are you talking about? This isn't a storybook. How could Sheng Sheng possibly understand what the wolf is saying, let alone talk to a wolf? That's even more impossible."
The little dumpling looked bewildered and surprised, but was very calm and not guilty at all. Li Manyan was stunned and began to wonder if she had really been hallucinating.
Could it be that all of this was because she was stunned by the princess's courage to stand in front of others, such a young child, and by the princess's love for her people, and was blinded by her dazzling light, thus creating a fantasy?
Sheng Sheng nodded: "Yeah, you're all overthinking it. I was just rambling on to see if I could scare these wolves. See? Even you guys were fooled."
The crowd was skeptical, but there really wasn't a better explanation. After all, a princess couldn't possibly talk to a wolf, could she?
Everyone looked at the earnest little dumpling and nodded firmly.
"So that's how it is! Your Highness is truly wise!"
"Yes, yes, they acted so realistically that even I was fooled."
"The princess is so intelligent at such a young age, it's truly amazing!"
Sheng Sheng accepted the compliments without any hesitation: "Hehe, it's nothing special."
The wolf king was ignored again and became even angrier. This time, he chose to ignore everything.
Since this little human was so eloquent, he simply ignored everything and killed her before the white tigers could find them by their scent, thus avenging the dead wolves!
Wolf King: "Hmph, we risked our lives to break through this barrier, just to avenge my dead wife, children, and brothers. You humans have a saying, 'The sins of the wife and children should not be visited upon them.' You can play me for a fool, but you actually killed my wife and children!"
Sheng Sheng asked again, puzzled, "Hey, you're really accusing me. Since you know that everything I said yesterday was nonsense, how can you say that I harmed your wife and children? Besides, since you know the principle of 'misfortune should not extend to one's wife and children,' did you think of this principle when you were besieging Stone's mother yesterday and trying to eat Stone? It's a bit ironic that you're telling me now that misfortune should not extend to one's wife and children."
And don't forget, some of your good brothers ate two of our palace maids, and we couldn't even find a complete corpse for them. Although we arranged for them to be properly buried, according to the elders, dying without a complete body is very unlucky. How are you going to compensate us for that?"
The little dumpling unleashed a barrage of attacks, completely baffling the Wolf King.
The wolf king was speechless, because he truly could not refute it.
If I can't refute it, then I won't refute it!
The wolf king howled, its front legs rubbing against the ground as it prepared to charge.
"Stop listening to his nonsense, let's just rush up and devour her!"
The pack of wolves let out a howl in unison and charged forward at an incredible speed.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats, fearing that the wolf would pounce on them at any moment and tear them to pieces.
In the shadows, Zhui Feng gripped his longsword tightly, having already analyzed which part of the wolf he should stab to kill it instantly.
Suddenly, a flash appeared before Sheng Sheng's eyes, and an arrow, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, landed a meter in front of him. Its sharp silver blade gleamed coldly as it pierced the air, creating a slicing sound. Its momentum was overwhelming, blocking the wolf king's advance and stopping just half a step in front of the arrow.
A series of "Wow!" sounds rang out: "Wow, reinforcements have arrived!"
The wolf king's charge was interrupted by the sharp arrows, and just as it was about to pounce again, a majestic and domineering tiger roar came from the dense forest.
The sparse woods could not block the echo of the tiger's roar, which went straight into everyone's ears.
"Awooo—"
The wolf pack's unified momentum clearly crumbled, and the wolf king, who was already blind in one eye, trembled and even felt a hint of retreat under the tiger's roar.
Li Manyan's face turned deathly pale: "Huh? The wolf hasn't left yet, and now the tiger has come?"
The little dumpling poked its head out with a smile, searching for the white tiger: "Don't be afraid, it's a friendly force!"
