Chapter 25: Resolving the crisis (1/2)
Long Yi frowned as he looked at the girl whose douqi was getting weaker and weaker. He was somewhat unable to bear leaving this girl in such a situation, however, if he joined the fray consisting of so many dire wolves, then he would be unable to do anything other than throw his life away in vain. Thinking thus far, Long Yi lightly sighed and turned away, as he did not wish to witness the death of such a beautiful girl.
Coincidentally, two of the small silver dire wolf cubs who were playing with each other by imitating the attacking posture of the dire wolf king started running towards the location of the hiding Long Yi.Seeing its precious two cubs who were slowly running further and further away from itself, the dire wolf king roared twice, probably trying to call them back to its side. However, these two little mischievous silver dire wolf cubs only looked back for a moment, before completely ignoring the wolf king.
As Long Yi caught sight of the two little wolves slowly approaching him, he canceled his plans on leaving as a bold idea stuck him. He paused and thought to himself, Hmm if I caught these two little wolves and threatened the wolf king, would I be able to save the little beauty from the Phoenix clan?
As Long Yi calculated the distance, he was 70% sure that he would be able to catch these two little dire wolves. Catching the sight of the young girl fighting the group of dire wolves being unable to hold on anymore and was on the verge of being completely unable to resist their assault, Long Yi no longer hesitated. Quickly casting two gale magic spells on himself in succession and using great cosmos shift at full power, Long Yi left behind several after images as he charged towards the two little dire wolf cubs.
Noticing the danger towards its children, the wolf king roared furiously and immediately sent out several wind blades towards Long Yi who was currently making a move on the two little solver dire wolves. But how could Long Yi be unprepared for the retaliation from the dire wolf king? The rank 5 earth spell earthen wall magic was instantly cast by Long Yi to defend himself from the wild blades. Thick walls of earth rapidly rose from the ground and blocked the wind blade attack from the wolf king. However, Long Yi didnt realize that he had underestimated the might of the wolf king. The powerful wind blades cast by the wolf king easily broke through the rank 5 earthen wall magic and continued cutting towards Long Yi without even losing much of the speed and power it originally possessed.
Placed in a perilous situation, Long Yi was desperate as he had to choose between grabbing the two little wolves or avoiding the wind blades. He had no choice but to avoid the wind blades and had to give up on the two little wolves temporarily in order to get out of the dangerous situation he was in. By this time, the two little dire wolves were quickly dashing towards their mother, the silver dire wolf king. In an attempt to stall more time for its children, the dire wolf king sent out even more powerful wind blades towards Long Yi.
Long Yi felt a burst of anxiety as the two little dire wolves were about to escape from his reach, as this would completely ruin his plans on threatening the dire wolf king to save the young girl. He immediately used the spiritual attack which he was extremely proficient with in his past life. The spiritual power instantly chased down and bound the two little dire wolves causing them to be unable to move even a single step. Sensing the wind blades slicing towards him, Long Yi knew he could not delay any longer. Gritting his teeth, he leaped towards the two little dire wolves who were already bound by him and caught them. As he dodged the wind blades flying towards him with all his might, one of the wind blades still landed on him as an ugly tear appeared on his back.
As blood started flowing from the deep wound caused by the wind blade, Long Yi lightly snorted while he clutched the neck of the two little dire wolves. Turning to the group of dire wolves, the side of Long Yis lips slightly tilted upwards as he revealed an evil smirk which still could not hide the excitement he felt after accomplishing his goal.
As the two little wolves dangled in the air, with their pitiful tiny legs kicking powerlessly in the air, and their throat making purring noises as if telling Long Yi to show them mercy, Long Yi instead felt very comfortable. Long Yi heaved a sigh of relief, as, despite the danger to his life, he successfully caught these two little dire wolf cubs.
Seeing the two little dire wolves caught by this human, the group of dire wolves stopped their attack on the young girl as an ominous glint flashed across their eyes. Already at her limit, the young girl fainted immediately as the dire wolves stopped their attack. However, before she lost her consciousness, she faintly saw a tall and straight figure at the corner of her eye.
Seeing as the group of dire wolves were starting to surround him, Long Yi increased the pressure he put on the neck of the two little dire wolves. Sounds of whining and whimpering immediately came from the two little dire wolves as they struggled harder due to the pain.
Aowuuuu! The silver wolf king howled. Immediately, the group of more than 2000 dire wolves backed away and dispersed. Seeing that the group of dire wolves retreated according to his command and the human would not make any rash movements, the silver wolf king then came forward. Its anxious eyes were filled with love as he stared at the two little dire wolves.
Wu wuwu, this silver wolf king waved its tail and begged Long Yi.
