Vol 2 Chapter 35 (1/2)
hapter 35 A pack of wolves
As they left the broken house, a gust of fresh and breezy wind blew across their cheeks. It was a very refres.h.i.+ng feeling.
“Let’s go…” Xuan Luo could see that Bai Tian’s eyes looked drowsy. He disregarded it and kept on walking.
“Wu wu…” A crying sound could be heard nearby. Xuan Luo and Bai Tian were confused. What was going on? They are on the mountains yet there’s a child crying?
But after quickly thinking about it, Xuan Luo came to the realization that something was wrong. How could there be a child in the middle of the mountains?
“Oh no, it’s a wolf!” Xuan Luo’s brows furrowed. Not far from where they were stood a wolf, and it was staring right at Xuan Luo and Bai Tian. Since the rain had only recently stopped, Xuan Luo was surprised to see a wolf hunting for a prey so soon.
Hearing Xuan Luo’s voice, Bai Tian turned to take a look. He looked unimpressed and said, “Xuan Luo, you’re making such a big deal. It’s just a wolf. Why are you afraid? We can chase it away!”
Bai Tian then grabbed a wooden stick from the ground and headed towards the wolf’s direction. During their exploration, Xuan Luo and Bai Tian have came across ferocious beasts that were similar to the wolf. Fortunately, they have acquired some basic fighting techniques from Master Li. If not, they definitely wouldn’t dare to explore the mountains on their own. Although Master Li has only taught them simple fist techniques, it was enough for them to protect themselves.
Bai Tian lazily approached the wolf, with the wooden stick in his hand. Once he was at a close proximity to the wolf, he waved his stick; attempting to scare the wolf away. Unexpectedly, the pupil of his eyes started to miniaturize. His whatever face suddenly transformed into fear. He struggled to turn around as he loudly hollered, “Xuan Luo, it’s not a wolf. It’s a pack of wolves. Run!!!”
Immediately, Bai Tian drops his wooden stick and runs back to where he came from.
Xuan Luo also quickly turns around and used all his strength to run. Both of them are now running -one ahead of the other, while a pack of wolves were right behind them…
Honestly, a wolf on its own is not scary. The scary thing is when they are in a pack. There is no way you can handle them all unless you possess strong Martial Arts abilities. If not, don’t even think about surviving from ten thousand wolves*…
Although Xuan Luo and Bai Tian are not yet twelve, their running abilities are very impressive. They were actually developed during these past two days on the mountain.
As the pack of wolves got closer and closer, Bai Tian and Xuan Luo were horrified and baffled. In front of them was a cliff, while behind them were the wolves. It was difficult to choose between the two. Regardless whether they choose to advance or retreat, the outcome didn’t look good. They don’t know what would be waiting for them under the cliff.
“Let’s risk it all! We are going to die anyway. At least, take some of them with us!” Seeing this situation, Xuan Luo shrieked. Actually, Xuan Luo’s thoughts were very simple. If they were to jump off the cliff, their chances of surviving would be slim. Whereas, if they try fighting for their lives, perhaps they would have a higher chance of living!
Bai Tian looked at Xuan Luo and let out a yell. The two of them then stood with their backs against each other. Both of them had their fists tightened and their horse stance ready.
Although Xuan Luo and Bai Tian didn’t start learning basic Martial Arts until they were ten, and that they normally only practiced the most basic horse stance, they have acc.u.mulated a good foundation. Right now, Xuan Luo and Bai Tian are releasing all their potential.
Since Xuan Luo and Bai Tian were no longer moving, the pack of wolves also stopped. The wolves were looking at them like they were food.
One by one, the wolves sprinted to attack. Xuan Luo and Bai Tian looked at each other with one eye and nodded in unison. Then, they separated.
(Punch)
Xuan Luo timed it correctly and his fists landed right on the wolves’ heads.
(Wu Wu)
The wolves that were striked flew a short distance and made the “wu wu” sound on the ground. But not long after, they would get back up again.
At the same time, the wolf pack started howling together. The mountains were filled with their sounds.
Seeing this, Xuan Luo and Bai Tian could tell they were in a bad situation. The wolves were definitely vigorous. If they were to maximize their powers, their strength would be equal to a couple hundred jin. Yet, that was still not enough to kill the wolves.
One by one, the wolves attacked Xuan Luo and Bai Tian. After a couple of rounds, Xuan Luo and Bai Tian were definitely much weaker physically. Their willpower to fight were also decreasing drastically as well.
But their current situation didn’t allow them to relax.
