Greedy Wolf Arrives
The old Daoist priest's pat on the back was perfectly timed. He slowly withdrew his hand, a smug look on his face, then stroked his beard, revealing a proud smile. He said, "Qing Shu, never be too arrogant, thinking that our Infinite Starfield is invincible. You must know that each star domain has its own experts, and there are many star domains at our level, or even higher than Wuji. Therefore, never develop an arrogant habit. I've taught you long ago that there are always people more capable than you, and heavens beyond heavens. Take this scoundrel, for example. With his mere S2 combat strength, he dared to run wild in the Infinite Starfield and even destroyed your bronze seal. Just from this, you know he's definitely not an ordinary person. Consider him a lesson for you. You must continue to cultivate diligently in the future. Never think that with your current cultivation level you can stand alone, understand?"
Although Qing Shu was unwilling to accept his elders' admonition, he had no choice but to listen obediently and nod in agreement from time to time.
The White-Brow old Daoist then changed the subject, saying, "Although I killed this thief this time, you will still have to rely on yourselves from now on. The Infinite Starfield will belong to you young people in the future. I hope you can achieve fruitful results in your cultivation and become independent as soon as possible. From now on, take some time to cultivate diligently in Shadow Street, and don't be lazy. As for that thief today, he misjudged the Infinite Starfield. Although he is dead now, there may be accomplices who have infiltrated it. Qing Shu, you should quickly take some men to patrol the area."
Qing Shu hurriedly nodded in agreement, and quickly left with a few people. Before leaving, he glanced at Zhuo Qingxuan, whose face was pale, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and then he disappeared. He was already far away.
Meanwhile, Zhuo Qingxuan saw that the person had been struck by her master's palm and reduced to nothingness, and her mind was filled with many thoughts.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted that he redeem that female slave, he wouldn't have come to the Infinite Starfield and wouldn't have died. In the end, I'm the one who ruined him."
Zhuo Qingxuan looked miserable. When she saw her master walking over with a smile, she sighed and walked over with a face full of anger.
Seeing the expression on his prized disciple's face, the White-Brow old Daoist already understood what had happened. He chuckled and deliberately asked, "Qingxuan, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
Suppressing her anger, Zhuo Qingxuan said in a deep voice, "Master, I want to ask you why you tried to kill my friend. I already said he was a guest I invited."
Upon hearing this, the White-Brow old Daoist priest's face darkened, and he said unhappily, "Qingxuan, what do you mean by this? I only intervened in a moment of panic when I saw you being kidnapped by that thief. I raised you since you were a child, and I know everyone I know very well. I have never seen that thief before. What else could he be but a thief?"
Zhuo Qingxuan wanted to say something, but her master waved his sleeve and said coldly, "Qingxuan, everything I do is for your own good. You have unparalleled talent, and at such a young age, you have completed 30 S-rank missions in Shadow Street. You are the most outstanding genius in the history of our Infinite Starfield. I have high hopes for you. You must not neglect your cultivation because of that insignificant thief. You must know that we in the Infinite Starfield cultivate the Infinity Dao Arts, which requires long-term cultivation. This cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you will fall behind. If you are distracted even slightly, you will be surpassed by others and fall into a wrong path. I will not allow this to happen, so I took action to eliminate that person. If you want to blame someone, blame your master. But even so, I will never regret it, because everything I did was for your own good."
These words were extremely harsh. It was the first time Zhuo Qingxuan had ever seen her master so agitated. Just as her master said, everything he did was for her sake, so did she still have the right to blame him?
However, that person had indeed died because of her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere became cold.
Seeing this, the White-Brow Daoist priest walked over, patted Zhuo Qingxuan on the shoulder, and said, "Remember what your master said: if you want to become a superior person, you must act righteously, have no evil intentions, and do no evil deeds, but you must never be soft-hearted. It is worthwhile to make some sacrifices for the righteous path, understand?"
Zhuo Qingxuan had grown up hearing this theory since she was a child, and now that she heard it again, it was naturally deeply ingrained in her mind. However, she was still thinking about that person and wanted to say something more, but she didn't know where to begin.
At this moment, a streak of light flew over, and a disciple from the Infinite Starfield quickly appeared. Upon seeing the White-Brow old Daoist, his face lit up with joy.
"White-Brow Daoist Venerable, so you're here! I've finally found you!" Upon seeing the old Daoist with White-Brow, the disciple strode over and exclaimed, "There are over a dozen Werewolf Star spouting nonsense at our sect's gate! You'd better go and take a look!"
"What?! Is this even possible? What's gotten into these Werewolf now?"
"Their combat strength is not low. The strongest one is actually at the S5 level. Ordinary disciples simply cannot withstand him. However, these Werewolf have not used force; they have only been insisting that we release the people."
"Release them? Release whom? I think these Werewolf are just bored out of their minds. Fine, I'll go check it out. Qingxuan, come with me."
The White-Brow old Daoist priest put on a dignified expression, then pinched his fingers, and the black Tribulation-Transcending Immortal Boat beneath his feet carried Zhuo Qingxuan away in a streak of light.
Five Finger Mountain, the headquarters of the sects in the Infinite Starfield, covers a vast area with no less than a thousand buildings and pavilions. From a distance, it is surrounded by colorful clouds and wispy mist, resembling a fairyland. In terms of scale alone, it is like a medium-sized town.
At this moment, several tall, fierce-looking men stood at the entrance of the Infinite Starfield, facing several disciples of the Infinite Starfield. The two sides were clearly in a standoff.
These tall, muscular men were led by three arrogant-looking fellows. If Li Wei were here, he would recognize them as his three brothers: Greedy Wolf and the Ming brothers, Ming Dong and Bright Wolf.
After Li Wei, the 'Mirror Image,' was kidnapped, the three returned to the Werewolf Star Domain immediately. They intended to inform Greedy Wolf's father and ask him to intervene and retrieve Li Wei, but unfortunately, Greedy Wolf's father was on a mission in a mission world at the time. Helpless, Greedy Wolf secretly took one of his four guardians, an S5-level Mountain Wolf, and more than a dozen high-level Werewolf guards, and then headed towards the Infinite Starfield. At the same time, he left a message, writing down what had happened, so that his father could return quickly and rescue Li Wei.
These are all things for later, so let's leave them aside for now. Just consider the three members of the Greedy Wolf. Behind them stood more than a dozen Werewolf guards, one of whom was a towering three meters tall. This Werewolf was robust, half-human, half-wolf, and possessed formidable combat power, clearly surpassing even the strongest among them, the Greedy Wolf.
It was this Werewolf that blocked the disciples of the Infinite Starfield sects on the other side, making them hesitant to act rashly.
"Reincarnators from the Werewolf Star Domain, what are your intentions in trespassing into my Infinite Starfield? Aren't you afraid of causing a conflict between our two starfields?" The disciples of the Infinite Starfield sects stood at attention, their eyes fixed on the enormous Werewolf.
They were all around S1 level in terms of combat strength, but when faced with that Werewolf, they couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance. This only proved one thing: the giant Werewolf's combat strength was ridiculously high.
Just as the disciples finished speaking, the giant wolf let out a howl, silencing them completely.
Greedy Wolf still had that same smug look on his face. This time, he was all serious as he lunged forward, shouting, "You people from the Infinite Starfield are truly shameless! You forcibly kidnapped my brother, and now you're blaming me? Let me tell you, return my brother immediately, or I'll raze your Infinite Starfield to the ground!"
These arrogant words made Ming Dong and Bright Wolf, along with the Werewolf behind them, tremble with fear. They thought to themselves that this young master Greedy Wolf was really daring to talk so much. Even Greedy Wolf Lang's father probably wouldn't dare to say such arrogant words here.
Since boasting is tax-free, then go ahead and boast as much as you want.
The Ming brothers Ming Dong Bright Wolf, exchanged a glance and shouted, "Yes, release them immediately! If even a single hair on my brother's head is harmed, our boss will not let you off the hook!"
The leader they were referring to was naturally Greedy Wolf. The two thought to themselves, since this young master was of extraordinary status, it shouldn't be a problem to push all the blame onto him.
The three shouted and yelled, but they only talked and didn't fight. Plus, with the giant Werewolf guarding them, the Limitless Star people really couldn't do anything to them.
At that very moment, a streak of light sped by.
"Where did this brat come from, daring to run wild in my Infinite Starfield?" As the words were spoken, an old Daoist with White-Brow arrived with a woman as beautiful as a fairy.
After the old Daoist stopped, he glanced down and was taken aback when he saw Greedy Wolf. Then he chuckled.
"Isn't this the young master of the old man Azure Wolf? It's been so long, and he's grown so much. How is your old man's old bones doing?" The White-Brow old Daoist said with a forced smile, but he locked his gaze on all the dozen or so Werewolf opposite him, including the huge Werewolf, who could not escape the White-Brow old Daoist's gaze.
"Huh? It's these people?" Zhuo Qingxuan was taken aback when she saw Greedy Wolf and his two companions. These three had peculiar appearances, and she remembered them clearly. They were the three Werewolf she had encountered at the Star of Destruction auction house and later, the ones who were with that guy.
Later, when she kidnapped that guy, these three people were also present. Considering the purpose of their visit, Zhuo Qingxuan's heart sank, and she understood their purpose.
It must be because of him
"I thought they were just casual acquaintances, but I never expected that these Werewolf would be willing to come to the Infinite Starfield for him. It's really unexpected." In a daze, Zhuo Qingxuan realized that the situation in front of her had changed again.
When Greedy Wolf saw that someone had mentioned his father, he was greatly surprised. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a thin, White-Brow old Daoist priest, and his expression changed several times.
