Mighty Tiger Fist, Ren the Cannon Arrives

Lu Lin let out a loud shout and directly blocked the path of the White-headed Wolf's pounce.

He slashed out with his blade.

A cold gleam flashed in the White-headed Wolf's eyes. Just as it was about to change its movement to attack Lu Lin, it felt a sharp pain in its neck.

Lu Lin's blade had silently struck its neck.

The E-rank Battle Saber, which Ren Tian had specially reinforced with Black Carbon Steel, was prepared precisely for this moment.

The White-headed Wolf had assumed Lu Lin was unarmed and hadn't guarded against his battle saber, which allowed Lu Lin to land a blow with a single strike.

The White-headed Wolf fell from the air to the ground. A bloody gash had opened on its neck, dripping blood in steady drops.

Yet it seemed to feel no pain. Its wolf eyes narrowed slightly, as if memorizing Lu Lin's face.

"Pfft!"

Just then, Li Mo, who had been rolling on the ground to dodge, knelt on one knee and fired a crossbow bolt from the small crossbow in his left hand.

The bolt pierced straight into the White-headed Wolf's eye.

"Owooo--"

This time, the White-headed Wolf finally couldn't help but cry out in pain.

"Lu Lin, be careful. This wolf cub holds grudges like nothing else. If it escapes, we'll never have a peaceful day from now on."

Li Mo explained briefly, and Lu Lin nodded slightly.

Taking advantage of the White-headed Wolf's pained howl, Lu Lin once again activated the third-layer amplification. A slash of nearly thirty thousand kilograms struck the White-headed Wolf's mouth.

This time, caught completely off guard, the White-headed Wolf could no longer endure.

Its entire lower jaw was cleaved off by Lu Lin's blade, a sight both bloody and nauseating. Waves of thick, pungent blood spread through the air.

"Pfft!"

Seizing the opportunity, Li Mo fired another crossbow bolt.

The White-headed Wolf, still howling in agony, could hold on no longer. It whimpered, its eyes closing, with only the wound on its lower jaw telling the tale of its pain and unwillingness.

If only it had withdrawn from the battle circle earlier.

"Brother, thanks!"

Li Mo gasped heavily as he stood up from the ground. Among these few people, aside from Lu Lin, who was being looked after by Huang Li, he had been in the most danger.

After all, he was still not skilled at fighting Monster Beasts head-on.

If it came to ambushes and assassinations in the dark, even Zhou Shenming might not be his match.

"Brother Li Mo, you're too kind. I'll go help Brother Ren now!"

Lu Lin assessed his own condition. His Vitality Power hadn't been depleted much, but the frequent use of the Sky Breaking Thirteen Slashes' amplification had put some strain on his right arm.

Still, even so, it was enough to help Ren Tian by creating an opening on the side.

"Alright, I'll go help the Captain."

Li Mo said, then turned and vanished into the darkness.

What he excelled at most was still hiding in the shadows to deliver a fatal blow.

By the time Lu Lin reached Ren Tian's side, Ren Tian was also running low on strength.

Although he was a peak High-level Martial Artist on the verge of advancing to Martial Master, his fighting style meant he couldn't sustain it for long.

At this moment, if not for the White-headed Wolf suspecting that Ren Tian was deliberately feigning weakness, he would have already been wounded.

A Beast General-level White-headed Wolf possessed intelligence no less than that of a nine- or ten-year-old human child. But precisely because of that intelligence, it hesitated for a few moves, and Lu Lin arrived.

"Brother Ren, I'll hold it off for you."

"Good!"

Ren Tian let out an excited roar.

"Brother, today I'll show you Brother Ren's signature move!"

"Mighty Tiger Fist!"

Seeing Lu Lin come to help, Ren Tian was thrilled. Though he hadn't had time to check on the others, since Lu Lin had come to assist him, the rest probably weren't faring worse.

"Boom--"

"Boom--"

Within three seconds, Ren Tian unleashed over twenty consecutive punches, each exceeding twenty thousand kilograms.

The key point was that Lu Lin watched with his own eyes as all twenty-plus of Ren Tian's punches landed on the White-headed Wolf's left eye socket.

After that barrage of blows, the White-headed Wolf's left eye area became a bloody mess, and its mind grew somewhat dazed.

At this moment, it even secretly congratulated itself—the cunning humans indeed had a backup plan. Good thing it hadn't recklessly charged in earlier.

The White-headed Wolf had outsmarted itself.

If Lu Lin hadn't suddenly appeared to divert its attention, Ren Tian would never have dared to push his own limits and use such a life-risking technique.

After this round of fighting, without even waiting for the White-headed Wolf to attack, Ren Tian's face flushed red as he plopped down onto the ground littered with White-headed Wolf corpses.

"Lu Lin, it's on you now."

Seeing Ren Tian's exhausted state, Lu Lin was speechless.

He had only come to help hold things back—how had he become the main force?

But at this point, Lu Lin had no other choice. He could only grip his blade and charge in.

He aimed at the White-headed Wolf's severely wounded left eye socket and swept his blade horizontally.

"Kill!"

With this strike, Lu Lin once again unleashed his fourth-layer combat amplification.

The White-headed Wolf was already dazed and disoriented. Sensing Lu Lin's killing intent, it tried to dodge but couldn't evade at all.

Under the force of this fifty-thousand-kilogram strike, its skull was sent flying clean off by Lu Lin's blade.

The White-headed Wolf couldn't even let out a scream. With a heavy thud, it collapsed to the ground.

"I can't take it—I'm about to die!"

Lu Lin felt as if his right arm had snapped, and the war blade in his hand clattered to the ground with a sharp sound.

At this rate, he'd probably struggle to even hold chopsticks when eating tomorrow.

"Awesome, bro!"

Ren Tian, sitting behind him, shouted in praise. Then he saw Lu Lin's blade fall to the ground.

"Lu Lin, you alright? You okay?"

"Yeah, still alive!"

Lu Lin replied weakly. He didn't care that he was sitting on a White-headed Wolf corpse anymore. He plopped down directly, rubbing his left arm over and over.

Now, he finally had a moment to check on the others.

Yang Dawei and Yang Xiaowei, the two brothers, had managed to kill two Beast General-level White-headed Wolves with Huang Li's support and were now joining Zhou Shenming in besieging the Wolf King.

The Wolf King hadn't expected that its surefire attack would result in the deaths of five of its Beast Generals.

Now, facing the three of them, it showed no sign of losing ground. It shook its head and swung its tail, clawing and biting with sharp fangs, its iron-whip-like tail sweeping back and forth constantly, blocking Huang Li's line of sight.

In truth, at this point, Huang Li couldn't even shoot arrows to support against the Wolf King.

He simply couldn't intervene in a fight at this level. If Ren Tian were at full strength, he might barely be able to hold it off for a bit, but from this distance, the Wolf King and the three teammates shifted positions so quickly that Huang Li couldn't keep up with their speed. If he risked an arrow, he might hit one of his own teammates.

But... where was Li Mo?

Ever since Lu Lin had helped kill one White-headed Wolf earlier, Li Mo had vanished. Even now, after Lu Lin had helped Ren Tian cut down another White-headed Wolf, there was still no sign of Li Mo.

Li Mo was a veteran in the squad. He wouldn't have taken this chance to run away, would he?

Ren Tian saw the others growing anxious. Just then, he had recovered some of his qi and blood, so he leaped up and charged at the Wolf King.

"Captain, don't worry—Ren the Cannon is here!"

Ren Tian bellowed. The Wolf King followed the sound and spotted his figure.
