"Roar..."
A earth-shaking roar rang out from the forest.
Along with the roar came a gust of fetid wind that struck them head-on.
The wolf pack that had just been confronting Yuchi Zhengde fled without hesitation into the forest beside them.
Yuchi Zhengde looked up and saw an enormous white tiger slowly emerging from the woods.
Clearly, that roar just now had come from this massive beast.
Yuchi Zhengde sucked in a breath. The white tiger's head alone was larger than his entire body; it could swallow him whole in a single bite.
No wonder a mere roar from it could whip up such a foul wind.
"Damn it!" Yuchi Zhengde cursed.
He had never expected that, after entering the Nether Tower, he would be stripped of his divine power and caught off guard by a few wild wolves.
During the fight, he had slipped off the cliff and been saved by Jiang Feng with vines. Yet the wolves had taken the opportunity to badly wound Jiang Feng, leaving him unconscious and sending him over the cliff as well.
Fortunately, Yuchi Zhengde had found his footing in time and caught hold of Jiang Feng.
But this had plunged him into danger as well. Not only did he have to face the wolf pack alone, but unconscious Jiang Feng was hanging from him.
He knew that if he cut the vines and abandoned Jiang Feng, he might still be able to break through the wolves' encirclement.
But he could not do it!
He should have hated Jiang Feng. After all, Jiang Feng had destroyed his empire and taken his throne.
Yet along this journey, Jiang Feng's bearing as a man of great stature had won his deep respect!
Just now, Jiang Feng had even put himself in danger to save him.
