140 Dumb Dog’s Struggle (1/2)

Frankly speaking, Wang Wu was completely unaware of what exactly this so-called terrifying monstrous wolf really was.

However, that didn’t stop her from revealing a very surprised expression because she at least knew that the Western Continent girl before her wasn’t some kind of country girl who hadn’t seen the world. On the contrary, she must have seen quite a few big scenes in her life. Perhaps even more so than the vast majority of the so-called powerful people in the Nine Regions. Therefore, for her to be amazed at something terrifying, legendary and so on, that could only mean that that dumb dog’s true power must be over the sky.

“Sister, can you tell me more about that Fenrir?”

Aya nodded. “Okay. In the northern part of the Western Continent, there are many legends about Fenrir. I can tell you several of them… Unfortunately, I haven’t personally seen it myself. Even more so during the war, I only came across Fenrir’s skeleton that has been refined into a magical tool. That’s why I can distinguish its peculiar smell.”

“Hey, since it’s the legendary terrifying monstrous wolf, can you still tell the difference since you haven’t seen it yourself?”

Aya didn’t try to explain and just revealed an indifferent smile. Yet, her petite body exuded a powerful and imposing momentum that was more powerful than any explanation words.

“Forget it, I’ll just take your word for it… Then, according to your experience, how much value is this demon wolf Fenrir?”

Aya revealed a puzzled look. “Value? What value?”

Wang Wu explained, “Its value in spirit stones. I mean how much spirit stones can you get from selling an adult Fenrir?”

Aya was suddenly taken aback. After gawking for a long time, she incredulously asked back rhetorically, “Spirit stones? You want to use spirit stones to measure the value of Fenrir? Are you kidding me? How could a mythical creature that could destroy cities and wipe nations out be bought with spirit stones?”

Wang Wu’s excitement immediately went through the roof. “So, it’s basically a priceless treasure?”

“Although I have never seen a fully grown Fenrir, it might be even more powerful than the so-called mythical beasts in the Nine Regions. It’s just that, from what I know, it takes a long time for a young Fenrir to fully mature. However, it has a lot of talents and abilities. Moreover, generally speaking, it doesn’t have a natural predator, therefore…”

Wang Wu excitedly interrupted her, “No need to continue. In short, it’s comparable to the mythical beasts, right?”

While speaking, Wang Wu trotted around the kitchen, with light and quick footsteps as if she was a bird in heat.

“That kid Wang Lu is really worthy to be the Chosen One. Going to the Western Mountain for a trip, he actually picked up a mythical beast. This kind of luck, I’m afraid, is only reserved for the likes of Immortal Qin and Great Ancestor De Sheng... this goddamn gang of possessors of Void Spirit Root.” As she said that, her pair of large apricot eyes flashed out the fire of hatred that belong to the “poverty stricken masses towards the Mr. Perfect.”

“But no matter what, since even I don’t know about this Fenrir, Wang Lu has even more reason not to know about it. Since that’s the case…”

Aya curiously asked, “Since that’s the case what?”

Wang Wu righteously exclaimed, “I really can’t stand those pearl thrown into a pig kind of things. Aya, you can continue to pick the menu, don’t spend too many thoughts on them, there’s no need for them to be too fancy. I still have some matters that I need to handle back at the Non-Phase Peak.”

Aya nodded while inwardly thinking that this Five Elder seemed to be planning something nefarious.

--

Waking up from a lethargic sleep, Wang Lu felt terrible.

Previously under the black tide at the Savage Land, Wang Lu had fought and killed the Black Poison Corpse General. At the time, he never thought that his physical injury would be quite severe. Burning his innate lifespan had shocked his Inner Mansion, moreover, after running around under the black tide for a long time, it inevitably subjected his internal organs to corrosion. Fortunately, his Non-Phase Method gave him an extremely tough flesh and bones, which enabled him to persist.

However, back at the Non-Phase Peak, away from the tension of the situation, the injuries gradually surged. Although they were not fatal, unavoidably in one or two days, he would be miserable.

When he entered the hut, Wang Lu slept for around two or three hours before he woke up. Outside the hut, the sun was about to set. The scarlet light from the setting sun was reflected on his face, making him keenly aware of the smell of dry blood on his mouth, which was caused by his internal injury. Feeling his throat and mouth dry, Wang Lu reluctantly got up, wanting to pour himself a cup of tea. However, when he got up, he saw a cup of warm tea in front of him as well as a gentle and soft voice in his ears.

“Oh, you’re awake. Have a cup of tea?”

Wang Lu frowned, feeling there was something wrong with this. He then looked at the cup of tea and the gently chuckling white-clad woman beside him...

He took the cup, drank it, and then returned the cup to the woman’s hand. And while the other side was unprepared, he directly reached out for the other side’s full chest.

Reaching the target felt really good.

Wang Lu retracted his hand, but when he saw there was no reaction from the other side, he finally took a long breath. “Phew, looks like it’s true. Tell me, what do you want to curry me a favor for?”

The woman in white, still with the same expression, withdrew the cup and then grinningly said, “Stemming from the concern that a Master has for her disciple, I brew a cup of tea for you while at the same wanted to know about your situation.”

Wang Lu said, “It was bad, but it’s better now. But I currently don’t need Master to spend your energy to look after me.”

“No, no, no, this is a must. You are my Non-Phase Peak’s Successor Disciple, You and I are as close as a mother and her child, I…”

“Wait a minute, stop right there. I never acknowledge you as my mother.”

“Ai, then it’s as close as siblings, like brother and sister… If that’s not enough, we can even be as close as husband and wife. Who let me be your Master? As your Master, I must play a good variety or roles when needed.”

“... Your head is really incurable.”

“In short, you just need to understand that I am very concerned about you right now.”
