Chapter 169: Enter the Canines
The leader of the Canine orcs explained the situation to the True Realm elders.
The three True Realm Canine orcs listened carefully to every word.
“So you’re saying that the Fox orcs realized something was strange about the Wolf orcs, so they came to you for help. That’s when you caught the scent of the four women.”
The leader of the Canine orc team said, “Yes! We split into three teams to create a diversion. The other two teams are still leading the Ox and Fox Clans in circles around Fenglan. Meanwhile, our team tracked the scent to this place. If the Fox Clan was right, then we might really have found Li Mu.”
The Canine and Wolf orcs were indeed experts at tracking and searching.
However, they were far inferior to the Fox orcs when it comes to deduction and strategy.
If the Fox orcs felt that there’s no problem with their deduction, then there really shouldn’t be many issues.
One of the True Realm Canine elders nodded and complimented the leader of the Canine orc group. “You’ve done well not to alert the target.”
Without alerting the target, tracking the scent down all the way here was already the absolute best that they could do.
“If I’m not wrong, the True Realm master should be among them.”
“Why so?”
“Didn’t you say that you’ve heard news about how several swordsmen have appeared in Su Family of Wuxin?”
“Elder, what are you saying?”
“The timing at which these swordsmen have appeared is too much of a coincidence.”
The leader of the Wolf orc group was startled.
Their main objective was to follow the Wolf orc scouts this entire time.
It was a coincidence that they found out what the Wolf orcs had discovered.
So they didn’t think much about the strange issues on the way.
“Elder, then we…”
Admittedly, they had not seen Li Mu. In fact, they had not even seen the girls that they have been tracking all this while.
“That’s not your mission. It’s out job to find Li Mu and the girls and quietly bring them away. .”
“Elder, take me with you, I can find the girls in no time.”
“You’re too big of a target. We’re going to head to Su Family to take a look first.”
That night, the three True Realm masters appeared atop the Su Family residence. Their divine consciousness swept across the area.
Above them, Li Mu was puzzled as he watched them.
What are these Canine orcs doing?
Could it be that they are chasing after him just like the Wolf orcs?
He had already concealed Liu Xiu’s scent, so how did they manage to track this place down so quickly?
The three True Realm elders levitated above the Su Family’s dwellings and searched through the entire night, yet they couldn’t find the person they were looking for.
Back at the Viper Clan cave, the Canine orcs gathered again for a meeting.
“Those girls might have left, bring me along to find them, elder!”
The next day, a person completely concealed in a cape appeared in Wuxin.
The caped man did nothing all day. He simply loitered around the Su Family’s residence, then started walking around Wuxin City.
“If the elder was right, the swordsmen inside the Su Family would be the people they’ve been searching for. But they should have been trapped in Wuxin City because of the war between the Viper Clan and Su Family.”
Tssss.
The caped man stopped in front of an inn.
“It’s a very faint scent.”
Although it was faint, he was confident that it was the scent he had been looking for.
The caped man walked into the inn and ordered some food. He sat down and ate while meticulously sniffing out the different scents that have mixed and blended together in the air. He listened in on the conversations around him.
“Those Canine bastards, I say we find that great master and go give them a lesson, so they won’t dare to take advantage of us ever again.”
“Yeah! Kill those Canines.”
Inns, restaurants, taverns, teahouses.
After days of growing hatred, the people of Wuxin were bonding over their shared hatred for the Canine Clan.
The caped man frowned slightly.
He continued to carefully spoon his food.
He didn’t think that occupying the Viper Clan’s den and using it to cover up their true intention would stir up such reactions from the Humans in the city.
Hmph!
Bunch of idiots!
They want to wipe out the Canine orcs with their meager abilities?
The caped man continued to eat.
Inside the inn, every warrior was worked up.
Soon, the caped man caught their attention with his unusual behavior.
Unlike them, this man wasn’t riled up.
He wore a cape, sat in a corner, and ate quietly.
Abruptly, one of the warriors pointed at the caped man. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Shua!
Everyone turned to stare at the caped man.
“I have nothing to say. Should I be talking to you guys about those boring, meaningless things? If you’re so great, go out there and kill some Canine orcs. What’s the point of getting all worked up here?”
“What did you just say?”
“I said all of you are useless. All you do is yell at each other. If you’re really so powerful, go out there and kill some Canine orcs.” Underneath the cape, the long-nosed Canine orc was trembling with anger.
“You want me to go out there to kill those sh*t-eaters? I don’t wanna dirty my hands.”
“Ha ha!”
The humans in the inn burst into laughter.
“How dare you!” The caped man stood up angrily.
Puny Humans, they’ve only won a few battles. How dare they be so disrespectful.
“What do you mean? Scolding us?”
“Wearing a cape in broad daylight, I think he could be a scout that sneaked in from outside.”
“Take off your cape, let us see if you’re a Canine orc.”
They quickly encircled the caped man.
Beneath the hood of the cape, the long-nosed Canine’s expression changed as he cursed silently.
He had entered the city covertly to avoid alerting the target, that’s why he wore a cape.
If he was exposed now, would it cause him to fail his mission?
“F*ck off!” the long-nosed Canine orc bellowed.
Suddenly, there was silence.
Everyone stared at the long-nosed orc.
The Canine stood up slowly and reached up to his hood. It looked like he was going to lift up the cape.
As those in the inn saw this, they relaxed a little.
While they did accuse this guy of being a Canine orc, they only said it in the heat of the moment when they weren’t happy with how he was speaking out for the Canines.
Swoosh.
Just as the people in the inn started to relax, the Canine orc jumped backward and flipped out of the window.
“What?”
“He’s definitely a scout sent in by the Canine Clan!”
“Quick get him!”
The long-nosed Canine orc flipped over the inn and into the back alley.
Soon, he disappeared into the darkness.
Puny humans, these were just some Saint-Level and Perfected Person level warriors.
Catch me?
He figured out the directions and sprinted towards the outskirts of the city.
“There he is!”
The moment he appeared in sight of the people of Wuxin, he was found by a peak-level Perfected Person warrior who was stationed on a tall building.
“Hmm?”
The long-nosed Canine orc immediately sped up to escape.
“The Canine scout is inside the city, get him!”
Swoosh.
Countless Perfected Person and Saint-level warriors encircled the long-nosed Canine orc.
“Damn it,” he cursed.
He sniffed the air.
Crap!
If he didn’t escape now, he would be trapped here for good.
And just when he had finally found the scent of his targets.
At this point, all he could do was to bet on his last hope.
The long-nosed orc raised his head and howled. This was the Canine Clan’s warning signal.
All he could do now was to hope that the leader and the True Realm elders were waiting for his signal near Wuxin City.
As the howl rang through the city, all the human were alerted.
“I knew it was the Canines!”
“The guy’s there, go get him!”
The howl exposed the long-nosed Canine orc’s position.
Outside Wuxin, the leader of the Canine orcs and the True Realm elders turned their gaze towards the city.
Surprise!
“He found those women!”
“Enter the city!”
