On the way, Hun Dan kept taking credit before Yang Shan.
"Cheng E, you know what a Soul Devouring Wolf is, right?"
"This thing is incredibly rare! The soul of an eighth-tier Soul Devouring Wolf is worth at least ten Dou Zuns!"
"If it weren't for you, I'd have reported it long ago!"
Although Yang Shan did not return to the Soul Sweeping Tower often, Hun Dan's trust in—and even dependence on—Yang Shan had long since taken deep root.
But Hun Dan was not a vampire who only knew how to take.
Whenever there was something good, Hun Dan thought of Yang Shan first.
It was said that the Soul Hall's headquarters, the Heaven Hall, had maintained a long-standing mission for Soul Devouring Wolf souls.
As long as one was brought back, the contribution reward would be doubled! It was said that the souls of high-level Soul Devouring Wolves might contain special energy needed to break through to the Heavenly Realm soul.
Without that special energy, breaking into the Heavenly Realm could only be achieved through "quantitative change leading to qualitative change."
Unfortunately, Soul Devouring Wolves were rare to begin with.
If it was a Soul Devouring Wolf possessing that special Heavenly Realm energy, then even if it was not ninth-tier, it would likely have to be at the Half-Saint level.
Yang Shan, Hun Dan, and Wu Ying—Protector Wu's real name—arrived at the Soul Devouring Wolf's location in no time.
The Soul Devouring Wolf had not directly attacked the Soul Sweeping Branch Hall. Clearly, it had detected the three of them approaching.
Yang Shan immediately used Appraisal and obtained the Soul Devouring Wolf's status panel.
