Awoo!

The Wolf Bandit locked in fierce combat had no time to dodge the sudden, lightning-fast wind blades Pidgey fired. He was struck head-on, blood spraying from the wounds across his body as he let out a pained howl.

The commotion drew the attention of everyone else on the battlefield, and their gazes instantly turned toward Mo Hui and Pidgey.

"Good, good! I never expected our party to have a Soul Grandmaster!"

Seeing this, the Soul Elder leading the group burst into laughter.

With this, their chances of defeating this pack of Wolf Bandits had risen considerably.

Meanwhile, seeing that the Wolf Bandit had survived several wind blades, Mo Hui's eyes grew solemn. The first soul ring beside him lit up again as he shouted to Pidgey, "Pidgey, Air Blade: Four-in-One!"

"Pidgey~"

Pidgey beat its wings rapidly, and four azure wind blades over a foot long shot out from before it.

Under Pidgey's control, the four azure wind blades swiftly intertwined and merged, ultimately becoming a massive azure wind blade nearly a meter and a half long.

The giant wind blade was incredibly fast. Before the fallen Wolf Bandit could react, it had already reached him.

Then, with a sharp crack, the enormous wind blade cleaved the Wolf Bandit in two, ending his life.

Seeing Mo Hui dispatch a Wolf Bandit so easily, everyone present was stunned.

Only those who had truly fought Wolf Bandits knew how troublesome they were. Their bodies were powerful, they were swift, and they were extremely bloodthirsty and fearless in the face of death.

Moreover, their powerful vitality meant that ordinary minor wounds did not affect their combat strength at all. Instead, they only made them more excited.

Against opponents like these, the soul masters had naturally been fighting in a miserable state just moments ago, even showing faint signs of collapse.

But Mo Hui's killing of the Wolf Bandit gave everyone in battle a tremendous boost of confidence, and their morale instantly soared.

Awoo!!!

In contrast to the caravan's excitement, the Wolf Bandits were furious over the death of their companion!

The Wolf Bandit leader let out a roar, and the Wolf Bandits who had been locked in stalemate with the guards abandoned their opponents one after another, charging rapidly toward Mo Hui and Pidgey.

"Not good! Little brother, be careful!"

Seeing this, the Soul Elder immediately warned Mo Hui.

His heart was exceptionally heavy, because no fewer than four Wolf Bandits were charging toward Mo Hui.

They had only barely managed to hold back six Wolf Bandits with so many people combined. It was hard to imagine how this ten-year-old boy could face the siege of four Wolf Bandits alone.

"They're coming for me?"

Without needing the Soul Elder's warning, Mo Hui immediately noticed the four Wolf Bandits charging at him, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He had been able to kill that Wolf Bandit so easily just now partly because of the element of surprise. Now that these Wolf Bandits were on guard, they would not be so easy to handle.

However, Mo Hui did not panic. Panicking at a time like this would only mean seeking death, and besides, he was not so easy to kill.

The second soul ring beside Mo Hui lit up, and his body instantly transformed into an azure blur as he charged toward one of the Wolf Bandits.

Awoo!

Seeing that this little thing not only did not flee from their encirclement but even dared to run toward him, a cruel smile immediately appeared on the Wolf Bandit's face. He swiped forward fiercely, and several wind blades shot from his fingertips.

Wolf Bandits inherited some of the innate abilities of Gale Demon Wolves, and wind blades were the most characteristic ability of Gale Demon Wolves.

However, although the Wolf Bandit's attack was fast, it could not match Mo Hui's Lightning Flash.

Mo Hui sidestepped, dodging the wind blades the Wolf Bandit had fired. While Lightning Flash was still active, he quickly arrived behind the Wolf Bandit and fired several wind blades.

But the Wolf Bandit seemed prepared. Mo Hui's wind blades did not achieve their intended effect, blocked by the Wolf Bandit's protective Soul Power. They merely broke a little skin.

Awoo!

At this sight, the cruel gleam in the Wolf Bandit's eyes only grew stronger. He raised his arm and clawed fiercely at Mo Hui.

If that claw struck, Mo Hui would inevitably be seriously injured, losing his ability to fight and left at the mercy of the Wolf Bandits. Yet if he tried to dodge, Lightning Flash had already ended, and at his normal speed, he simply could not evade the attack.

But at that critical moment, a massive wind blade suddenly appeared behind the Wolf Bandit and cleaved the unprepared Wolf Bandit into two with a single strike.

"Pidgey~"

Immediately afterward, Pidgey flew back above Mo Hui's head and warily watched the three remaining Wolf Bandits.

That was right. The massive wind blade just now had been Pidgey's Air Blade: Six-in-One. Mo Hui was in the open while Pidgey lay in wait, using the speed of Lightning Flash to form a pincer attack from both front and rear.

If the Wolf Bandit focused on Mo Hui, Pidgey would launch a surprise attack with Air Blade: Six-in-One. If the Wolf Bandit focused on Pidgey, then Mo Hui would be the one to use Air Blade: Six-in-One.

No matter what, the Wolf Bandit would have to take an Air Blade. Unless, after Mo Hui closed in, the Wolf Bandit did not rush to attack but immediately dodged the first strike and used a defensive skill against the second, he might be able to preserve his life.

Yes, only preserve his life. Even if a Wolf Bandit used a defensive skill immediately, it might not be able to withstand the power of Air Blade: Six-in-One. There was a high chance it would still be seriously injured.

Of course, being able to kill it outright was naturally the best outcome.

After killing this Wolf Bandit, Mo Hui did not stop moving. He immediately ran toward the guards.

Although these guards were not soul masters, they were all strong, burly men clad in armor. Most had once served in the kingdom and had been hired away at a high price by the caravan owner to protect the caravan.

If the Wolf Bandits had not launched a sudden sneak attack earlier, they could never have dealt with these guards so easily.

"Protect Lord Soul Master!"

Seeing Mo Hui run toward them, an old guard immediately reacted and hurriedly shouted to the guards around him.

Against so many Wolf Bandits, their small group had no chance of winning and would only be slowly devoured to death. But with a soul master like this added to their side, the outcome would be completely different.

This soul master had already taken down two Wolf Bandits by himself. With their help, perhaps they could survive this crisis. This was their chance at victory.

Hearing the old guard's words, the guards all hurried forward and protected Mo Hui.

"Hold these three Wolf Bandits off for a moment. I'm preparing a finishing move!"

Seeing the guards standing before him, Mo Hui's eyes lit up, and he quickly shouted.

Then, the first soul ring beneath Mo Hui lit up rapidly, while Pidgey beat its wings at high speed. Semicircular wind blades appeared before Pidgey one after another.

Yet these wind blades did not fire out directly. Instead, they fitted together, forming a disc roughly sixty to seventy centimeters in diameter.

Under the joint control of Mo Hui and Pidgey, the disc began spinning at an astonishing speed, transforming into an azure wheel of light.

Cutting Wind Wheel!

This was a result Mo Hui had only recently developed. Since it had only just been created, neither Mo Hui nor Pidgey could unleash it independently. They had to work together just to barely release it successfully.

"Move aside!"

After the Cutting Wind Wheel was successfully unleashed, Mo Hui shouted at the guards blocking the Wolf Bandits in the distance, then controlled the Cutting Wind Wheel as it flew toward the three Wolf Bandits.

At the same time, driven by their instincts as living creatures, the three Wolf Bandits immediately sensed a deadly threat approaching. Just as they tried to retreat and dodge, the azure wheel of light had already arrived before them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Without the slightest resistance, the azure wheel of light tore through the Wolf Bandits' defenses as though slicing tofu, and beheaded all three Wolf Bandits in a single sweep!
