Anyone who knew Little Kun Mountain knew the leader of the Thunder Pattern Wolves was a Commander-level demon!

After everyone learned that the leader of the Thunder Pattern Wolves had arrived, terror showed on every face.

Uncle Lin said, "We have to leave right now. Staying here any longer is too dangerous!"

"But Uncle Jin and Jiao Jiao haven't come back yet!" Mu Lei looked toward the dense forest.

"He has Jin He with him. He'll be fine. We'll leave them a mark. When they come back, they'll see it and know what happened."

As soon as Uncle Lin finished speaking, he took out a dagger and carved several communication symbols into a tree.

Then he tossed a fairly eye-catching object beside the big tree.

"Retreat, now!" Uncle Lin commanded, looking at everyone.

Mu Lei looked back at the dense forest behind him, but in the end, he could only helplessly leave with the group.

This was fine too. Perhaps they could draw the Thunder Pattern Wolves away, and then Mu Nu Jiao and the others would not run into them.

Not long after they left, the pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves followed the scent to the place where Mu Lei and the others had just been resting.

But!

Mu Lei and the others had already left.

The Thunder Pattern Wolf leader sniffed at the lingering scent, then let out an enraged roar in one direction.

Without another word, the Thunder Pattern Wolves charged madly in the direction of the roar.

The vast pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves surged that way like they had been injected with adrenaline.

In the dense forest, Song Jie returned to the previous location.

However, as he looked at the empty place, his brow furrowed.

He scanned his surroundings, then looked at the footprints on the ground and suddenly grew alert.

"Demons came through here?" Song Jie looked at the footprints on the ground. They seemed somewhat familiar, a little like wolf tracks.

Very soon, memories flashed through his mind, and he recalled the Thunder Pattern Wolves they had mentioned earlier!

Song Jie murmured, "They ran into Thunder Pattern Wolves?"

He looked around, but found no signs of battle, which meant no major fight had broken out here.

Song Jie also saw the symbols on the tree, but he could not understand them at all, so he simply ignored them.

He thought to himself, Since Mu Lei and the others didn't run into them here, they must have left early.

Seeing this, Song Jie did not want to linger any longer either. If he ran into the pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves, that would be disastrous.

Besides, the sky was growing dark now. Spending the night alone in the dense forest would very likely put him in danger.

Song Jie had memorized the map of Little Kun Mountain on the way here, and he immediately looked toward the paths the other two teams had taken when they came.

One was the path where they had encountered no danger on the way in, while the other was the path where they had encountered the pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves.

However, the path where they had not encountered any danger on the way in was now covered in wolf tracks.

Therefore, Song Jie could only choose the path where they had previously encountered the pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves.

The Thunder Pattern Wolves had already gone after Mu Lei and the others by now, so they definitely were no longer on that road.

Thinking this, Song Jie immediately headed down that path.

After a long while, although he could still see the road clearly, the surroundings gradually darkened.

Song Jie did not encounter any danger along the way. The whole route was extremely quiet.

Another ten minutes or so and I should be able to get out, Song Jie estimated inwardly, while continuing to rush forward without stopping.

But after a minute, he heard several sets of footsteps approaching him.

Song Jie did not move. His entire body melted into the night.

"Uncle Jin, how are the others?" Mu Nu Jiao asked.

"I've already drawn away part of the Thunder Pattern Wolves for them. They should be able to escape." As soon as Uncle Jin finished speaking, he blasted a Sky Shock toward the pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves.

In an instant, flames exploded in the darkness, and the several Thunder Pattern Wolves charging over were immediately swallowed by fire.

"Miss, you leave first. There are too many Thunder Pattern Wolves here. I'm afraid I won't be able to look after you," Uncle Jin said gravely.

"All right!"

Mu Nu Jiao nodded. She knew she had become a burden to Uncle Jin.

Uncle Jin pointed in a direction. "Run that way. In a few minutes, you'll be able to get out of here!"

Mu Nu Jiao said, "Uncle Jin, I'll wait for you outside!"

Uncle Jin nodded.

Mu Nu Jiao did not hesitate and ran in the direction Uncle Jin had indicated.

Ice Lock!

"Pierce them!"

Uncle Jin controlled the icy crystal chains, sending them stabbing through the Thunder Pattern Wolves lunging at him one after another.

However, there were still dozens of Thunder Pattern Wolves before him, and even three General-level Thunder Pattern Wolves among them!

And it was night now, the Thunder Pattern Wolves' home turf.

With their incredible speed, plus the advantage of the darkness, even Uncle Jin, as a High-level Mage, found them somewhat troublesome to deal with.

Just then, Song Jie noticed several black shadows flashing past not far away.

"Is that direction Mu Nu Jiao?"

Song Jie looked toward Uncle Jin and completed a Light Element Star Track in an instant.

"Radiance!"

"Flicker!!"

A ray of golden light slowly rose into the night sky, then exploded abruptly in the next second!

Uncle Jin looked up at the sound, and in the next instant, the area around him suddenly became as bright as day.

"Radiance!"

He muttered inwardly, knowing someone was helping him, then immediately looked toward the Thunder Pattern Wolves!

Before this, the Thunder Pattern Wolves had relied on the darkness to hide their forms, but now, under the illumination of Radiance, they had nowhere left to conceal themselves.

Song Jie turned and left, running toward the black shadows from earlier.

Although Mu Nu Jiao was already an Intermediate Mage, her magic elements were not suited for fighting at night.

In the darkness, Mu Nu Jiao's figure was sprinting madly, her whole body drenched in fragrant sweat, even her hair soaked through.

"Wind Track!"

"Swift Stride!!"

Mu Nu Jiao cast magic again, wanting to leave this place as quickly as possible.

However, from behind her, there suddenly came a series of crisp sounds made by feet stepping on dead leaves.

Clearly!

Those Thunder Pattern Wolves had caught up!

But her Magic Energy could no longer support her in continuing to fight, so her only choice was to run!

Yet even after she cast Wind Track: Swift Stride, those Thunder Pattern Wolves still caught up to her in the end.

Mu Nu Jiao looked left and right, but in the darkness, she could not see the Thunder Pattern Wolves at all. She could only hear those crisp sounds drawing closer and closer.

In an instant, a Thunder Pattern Wolf suddenly rushed out, pouncing fiercely toward Mu Nu Jiao.

Mu Nu Jiao seemed to sense the danger and hurriedly rolled to the side.

But!

Because the surroundings were too dark, Mu Nu Jiao's arm was still clawed by the Thunder Pattern Wolf.

And at that moment, all the Thunder Pattern Wolves chasing from behind arrived, pouncing toward her one after another.

In the darkness, Mu Nu Jiao could only rely on instinct to dodge. After several exchanges, several more wounds had appeared on her body.

She panted heavily, her chest rising and falling without pause, while a layer of chill spread over her entire body.

Mu Nu Jiao felt so cold, but she still could not fall.

"Kun's Forest!"

"Prison Cage!!"

Mu Nu Jiao felt her body growing more and more exhausted, so she could only protect herself.

In the next second, tangled vines abruptly drilled out from the ground, forming a cage around Mu Nu Jiao.

After managing this, Mu Nu Jiao's body could no longer hold on, and she immediately collapsed.

Yet as she was about to close her eyes and lose consciousness, the person who appeared in her mind was actually Song Jie...

The Thunder Pattern Wolves outside kept slamming into the vine Prison Cage, but for the moment, they could not break through it at all.

They roared furiously, their voices echoing through the dense forest.

P.S. Impressive, another four chapters.
