Chapter 144: The Beasts Attack (1/2)

”I'm afraid it is not going to be that simple. I sense a large number of spirit bests in them as well. This is no normal pack.” Hei Yingjie spoke as he looked at the rest of the members that were now gathered.

”That's why they're taking revenge. No common pack of steel back wolves would dare to attack cultivators that easily.” Lin Mu realized.

”Everyone gets ready, we're going to have a tough night.” Hei Yingjie ordered.

”Yes senior!” They responded as they withdrew their respective weapons.

Lin Mu then saw Hei Yingjie produce a saber in his hand. The saber had just appeared out of thin air into his hands.

'So he has a spatial storage treasure as well.' Lin Mu thought and looked at the saber.

The saber was slightly longer than a meter in length and was curved. It looked heavy and had a broad hilt. Its blade was gray in color and gleamed under the flames of the bonfire.

”It's a spirit weapon too, a low tier one though,” Xukong informed.

”Oh? Well, that is expected as he's a core condensation realm cultivator and the Hei Corps do seem to have good connections.” Lin Mu spoke in his mind.

Just as he said this, Hei Yingjie's expression fell.

”Careful, there's a core condensation beast leading them.” He suddenly spoke up in an extremely grim tone.

”A core condensation realm steel back wolf? Can they even reach that realm?” Lin Mu questioned as he felt confused.

”It is indeed unusual. But there have been some reports of them reaching the core condensation realm before. But if one of them has, then that means it's the true leader of the pack and the pack has also come from the depths of the forest.” Hei Yingjie spoke.

Just as Hei Yingjie spoke, the bushes in the distance started rustling. The wind was not blowing, thus this meant that the wolves were close.

”I'll handle the core condensation realm steel back wolf, while you all handle the rest. Form a circle, back to back.” Hei Yingjie ordered.

He then turned to Lin Mu and looked at him with a serious expression.

”Brother Lin Mu, if anything happens to me or something unexpected happens, leave this place and runway. I'll give you an opening.” Hei Yingjie spoke.

Lin Mu felt shocked that he would be willing to sacrifice himself like that.

'Seems like they really don't want you to die now.' Xukong spoke with a chuckle.
