Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Wolves! That’s the sound of wolves!” Qiuling looked at Feng Wu and Uncle Qiu in turn, and asked, “Uncle Qiu, what now? Do you think you can kill that wolf?”
“That wolf?” Uncle Qiu gave her a bitter smile. “That’s the king of Obsidian Wolves, and when it howls, it won’t just be one wolf; in a few minutes, we’ll see tens of thousands of Obsidian Wolves charging at us! Granny Zhao, Qiuling, get inside the carriage. We’re leaving!”
Granny Zhao was driving the carriage behind them, which contained all those chests. She would never outrun those wolves with such a heavy load!
Both Granny Zhao and Qiuling were well-trained to handle emergency situations like this, and they jumped into Feng Wu’s carriage right away.
As soon as they were on board, Uncle Qiu’s whip flicked through the air and struck the horses on the back!
The horses sped up right away!
Because of the increase in speed, the ride became bumpier than before.
Granny Zhao took pity on the beautiful lady, who was looking at them with eyes as innocent as a fawn’s. She gripped the lady’s hand hard and comforted her. “Madam, don’t worry. We’ll be alright...”
However, Granny Zhao’s words were of little use, because —
Qiuling lifted the curtain and looked out. It wasn’t completely dark yet and she could clearly make out the Obsidian Wolves everywhere, each one sturdier than the next. Their fur was glossy and the vicious look on their faces showed how ready they were to kill!
They were now rushing down the slopes in the manner of ones who ruled this land!
The sound of their paws pounding the ground was like hammers thumping on Qiuling’s chest! She blanched and went very stiff!
Uncle Qiu realized how serious the situation was as well. He said loudly to Granny Zhao, “You drive! Get everyone out of here!”
After that, Uncle Qiu tossed the whip to Granny Zhao before jumping down from the carriage and charging at the wolf king!
Granny Zhao and Qiuling burst into tears. The Obsidian Wolves were everywhere and there was no way that Uncle Qiu could fight them off! He had just given up his life to save them!
However, this wasn’t the time for Granny Zhao to get sentimental. She was responsible for Miss Wu’s and the lady’s lives now!
Smack!
Granny Zhao whipped the horses hard!
The fact that she could guard the lady for so many years was proof enough that Granny Zhao was no mere old lady.
However, no matter how hard Granny Zhao struck them, the two horses remained frozen on the spot.
Qiuling cried out, “Shit! The horses are frightened by the wolves and they can’t move! We need to get off the carriage now!”
However, it was too late for that!
Because of the terrain, Feng Wu’s carriage was right in the middle of the valley and the Obsidian Wolves were charging down at them from all directions. Hence —
Qiuling realized that they had nowhere to run!
“What are we gonna do?! The wolves will be on us in no time! There won’t even be any bones left of us after they’re done!” Qiuling was terrified, but wouldn’t give in to this fate.
“There’s nothing to regret about my death, but what a pity for Miss Wu. She just got her ability back, and she’s going to die like this... I’ll get back at those two even if I turn into a ghost!” Qiuling realized that those Obsidian Wolves wouldn’t charge at them for no reason – the brother and sister had to have done something to them.
As they spoke, the wolf king had reached their carriage!
Uncle Qiu turned around and panicked!
He hurried back toward the others, but there were simply too many Obsidian Wolves around them.
The wolves had figured out that this middle-aged man was the most capable fighter among these four human beings.
