Dire Wolf

"Swish!"

Just then, Ling Yan leaped down from the branch of a large tree, landing beside Lin Xuan.

"You really are a good fighter. Dire Wolf pelts are worth three Contribution Points each. You can have them."

"Thank you for the pointer, Senior Sister," Lin Xuan quickly said, taking out the Pig Slaughtering Blade from his waist and quickly skinning the Dire Wolf.

"Tch!"

Ling Yan watched the process, looking at Lin Xuan with extreme disdain, even thinking to herself, "A menial is still a menial, doesn't even have a mundane weapon."

Soon, Lin Xuan had skinned the wolf and stored the pelt, hanging it on the Gale Wind Horse's back. The two then continued on their way.

Ling Yan led the way, with Lin Xuan leading the horse behind. It was hard to tell what each of them was thinking.

As the two ventured deeper into Yan Hui Mountain, the Gale Wind Horse became increasingly restless.

"Neigh... Neigh..."

Suddenly, the Gale Wind Horse let out a low, uneasy whinny, and Lin Xuan and Ling Yan stopped in their tracks.

Ahead was a clearing, with sparse branches above, allowing plenty of sunlight to stream down. Three late-stage Body Tempering Dire Wolves were lying in the sunlight, enjoying it with their eyes closed.

"Senior Sister, let's take a detour!"

Lin Xuan whispered softly.

"A detour? How much of my time do you want to waste?"

Ling Yan frowned. "Don't think I don't know you have an explosive martial skill. Three Dire Wolves, you should be able to handle them. Or are you hoping to get Contribution Points for free?"

"Go kill them. As a menial, you should have the awareness of a menial."

Lin Xuan's expression was a little unsightly, and he didn't look up at Ling Yan.

Ling Yan, however, looked at Lin Xuan with a disdainful expression.

Finally, Lin Xuan seemed to reluctantly move towards the side.

Where Ling Yan couldn't see, a murderous intent flashed wildly in Lin Xuan's eyes.

"Now I can almost be certain, this thing is targeting me."

"But, she didn't directly attack me. Heh... wants to play me to death, huh?"

"Ling Yan, ah Ling Yan, you'll regret this!"

Lin Xuan murmured inwardly, until he approached the three Dire Wolves, then he suppressed his murderous intent.

Activating Concealed Breath Stride, Lin Xuan reduced his aura to the limit, quietly approaching within ten meters of the three Dire Wolves.

Ling Yan still leaped onto a tree branch, watching Lin Xuan from afar.

"Blood Rage!"

At this moment, the Blood Essence within Lin Xuan's body surged, and the next moment, he darted out like a cheetah.

"Roar..."

The three Dire Wolves immediately reacted, standing up instantly and scattering in different directions.

"Tiger's Roar Fist!"

But suddenly, a tiger's roar resounded, and Lin Xuan's figure approached a Dire Wolf like a phantom.

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion erupted, and the Dire Wolf's waist was injured. Its calf-sized body flew out several meters like a broken sack.

"Awoo..."

The moment it fell to the ground, it let out a painful howl. Its waist was completely limp, and it couldn't even stand up anymore.

"Hmph... daring to hide your strength beforehand, did you really think you could hide it?"

Ling Yan watched from afar and snorted coldly.

"Roar... Roar..."

At this moment, in the clearing, the other two Dire Wolves erupted in angry roars, instantly pouncing towards Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan stepped down, his figure retreating violently. The two Dire Wolves immediately missed their target, but still chased after him.

Lin Xuan didn't expose Concealed Breath Stride, only using his understanding of footwork to entangle them.

But in his current Blood Rage state, Lin Xuan was still able to cope with ease.

For a minute, the two Dire Wolves couldn't touch him, but he landed several punches, and both Dire Wolves were injured.

However, the injuries completely ignited their ferocity, and their pouncing speed became even more fierce.

Two minutes later, Lin Xuan retreated into the dense forest, and the two Dire Wolves followed.

Within Ling Yan's line of sight, Lin Xuan's figure completely disappeared.

"Concealed Breath Stride!"

At this moment, in the dense forest, Lin Xuan's speed suddenly soared several times over, instantly arriving in front of a Dire Wolf, his gaze cold.

"Awoo..."

The Dire Wolf reacted a beat too late, and Lin Xuan's iron fist instantly struck its chest.

"Rumble!"

Power several times stronger than before penetrated its body, and its internal organs instantly ruptured. The Dire Wolf's eyes widened, it fell to the ground, and its life force was extinguished.
