Shen Miao's physical strength has been almost completely exhausted today.
She hadn't fought the wolf for long when she jumped back and shouted, "Stop, stop, stop! I'm not fighting anymore! I apologize!"
In the darkness, the wolf's claws stopped right in the center of Shen Miao's face.
If she had been even a fraction slower in uttering her pleas for mercy, the claws would have torn through her skin and dug into her flesh.
Although Shen Miao couldn't see it, she could feel the demonic wolf was very close, because its breath was brushing against her face. Shen Miao held her breath and didn't dare to make a sound.
After a while, the wolf snorted and finally slowly retreated.
"Lord Demon Wolf, you are as powerful as the legends say. I have finally learned something today. From now on, when I leave this door, I can brag to people that I have met Lord Demon Wolf. Thank you for giving me this opportunity." Shen Miao immediately showered him with compliments.
Just kidding, if you can't compete in terms of strength, and you don't have a sweet tongue, you're asking for trouble.
Dignity? Oh, what does that mean?
The wolf seemed to be enjoying the breeze; its heavy panting gradually subsided, which probably indicated that its emotions had stabilized and that it would no longer be able to jump up and slash her with its claws at any moment.
Shen Miao breathed a silent sigh of relief.
A gust of wind blew in from somewhere, and her back felt cool. She reached up and touched it, and lo and behold, her back was covered in cold sweat.
Next, Shen Miao found a corner to sit cross-legged and meditate. Then, the demon wolf launched another sneak attack, so she had to keep an eye on the other side.
The wolf didn't react at all, and if it didn't make a sound, Shen Miao would think that she was the only person in the cell.
That's fine, as it means we won't interfere with each other.
At least until she's recovered from her shock, we shouldn't cause any trouble, otherwise we'll just be at her mercy.
During this time, people from the Green Bamboo Sect came once to bring them food. Of course, there wasn't much food, and Shen Miao didn't even see their shadows before the demon wolf shoved her away.
Then a crunching sound came from inside the house, which must have been the dire wolf eating something.
Shen Miao was curious about what had been brought to her. She was also a little hungry, so she couldn't help but move closer to the demon wolf. The next second, the demon wolf swept all the food around itself, encircled it with its four paws, and glared at Shen Miao threateningly with its beastly eyes.
“I’m part of this too,” Shen Miao said honestly.
The wolf ignored her completely, stuffed all the food into its mouth in a few bites, and then looked at Shen Miao provocatively.
Shen Miao was dumbfounded.
But she dared not say anything; that's right, she was afraid the demon wolf would beat her up.
Shen Miao slowly retreated.
Oh no, I can't think about it anymore, the more I think about it, the hungrier I get. Shen Miao secretly glanced at the demon wolf. She didn't know if she had adapted to the darkness or what, but she could now vaguely see the situation inside the room.
You can also see what the wolf looks like now. This grumpy old man finished eating all the food and then lay sprawled on the ground, not knowing whether he was asleep or what.
Shen Miao waited a while longer, then took out a bag of vacuum-packed roast chicken from her spatial storage.
She tore off the wrapper, grabbed a chicken leg, and was about to put it in her mouth when a dark shadow flashed before her eyes, and her hand was empty. The chicken leg was in the wolf's mouth, and it was chewed up in two crunches.
And those bright green wolf eyes were still fixed intently on the remaining roast chicken in her hand.
Shen Miao realized what was happening and hurriedly tried to put the chicken leg in her mouth, but the wolf was faster. In a flash, it snatched the packaging away as well.
"What are you doing? That's my food!" Shen Miao demanded, unable to contain herself any longer.
The wolf glared at her, its beastly eyes unfathomable, exuding a domineering aura that suggested it would start a fight at the slightest provocation.
Shen Miao swallowed the rest of the insults.
Forget it, I can't beat them, and I can't afford to mess with them either.
On the other side.
Jiuying was also imprisoned in a room, given only a small amount of food each day to keep him alive.
That day, the person who delivered the food came over and mocked him, saying that his friends were a bunch of good-for-nothings who came to rescue him, but ended up being caught and locked up themselves.
"My friend? Is there a female beast inside?" Jiuying asked hurriedly.
The person delivering the food curled his lip and said contemptuously, "Even in this state, you're still thinking about female beasts. Tsk tsk, you should be thinking about how to survive."
After saying that, he turned and left, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.
Jiuying, however, could no longer remain calm.
Although the man didn't admit whether the people who came were Shen Miao and her group, he was already convinced that it was them.
The people of the Green Bamboo Sect have no bottom line; they're capable of anything. Now that Shen Miao has been captured, how will they deal with him? Jiu Ying couldn't sit still for a moment.
He stood up, walked to the small window, and shouted outside, "I want to see your boss. I have something to say to him!"
There are guards outside at all times.
Hearing that Jiuying rarely took the initiative to ask to see the boss, he dared not be negligent and asked, "What do you want to see our boss for?"
"I have something important to tell him, go and tell him." Jiu Ying refused to say anything more to these people who couldn't make decisions, and was determined to see the leader of the Qingzhu Sect.
The henchman snorted coldly, but still went to tell the leader of the Green Bamboo Sect.
After listening, the leader asked, "Is he willing to reveal what he knows about the Golden Crow Clan's formations?"
The henchman shook his head: "He didn't say anything, he just said he wanted to see you."
"Ugh, annoying."
The leader of the Green Bamboo Sect was somewhat impatient, but also curious about Jiu Ying's purpose in seeking him out. He lazily strolled over with his pigeon-toed gait and asked Jiu Ying, "What do you want with me?"
Jiuying bowed respectfully to the leader of the Qingzhu Sect and said earnestly, "Leader, the person you are looking for is me. Please release the unrelated persons."
The leader's eyes were mocking: "What right do you have to speak to me like that? You're nothing more than my prisoner now."
"But arresting them won't do any good. They haven't offended you, so why are you doing this? If you want to do something, or if you want to vent your anger, then come at me, don't hurt them," Jiuying said urgently.
The leader's temper flared up instantly: "Who do you think you are, daring to order me around? Even if I don't let them leave, I can still torment you to death!"
After saying this, the leader left in a rage.
After that, Jiuying suffered. Not only was her daily meal cut off, but she was also whipped every day. In just a few days, Jiuying was beaten beyond recognition.
At the same time, Shen Miao was also dizzy from hunger.
For several days in a row, she hasn't been able to eat a single thing; the demon wolves have eaten it all. Now, even if the door is opened and she's allowed to escape, she can't get away.
I feel top-heavy and light-footed when I walk, like I'm walking on cotton. How can I run?
On this day, the people from the Green Bamboo Sect came to deliver food again. Shen Miao knew there was no food for her, so she simply didn't move and stayed in her corner.
But suddenly, something fell in front of her. Looking down, she saw a hard, baked flatbread made of some unknown material.
