BANG!

A figure flew four or five meters through the air before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

”PFFT...”

Xu Bo spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his internal organs were about to be shattered.

”ROAR—!”

A wolf’s howl rang out as a massive dark shadow leaped into the air. Its sharp claws extended, its cavernous maw opened wide, and a foul gust of wind blasted forward.

’My life is over...’

Xu Bo’s face was filled with despair as he closed his eyes.

BANG—!

The sound of a collision echoed, but the immense pain he had expected never came.

Huh?

Xu Bo subconsciously opened his eyes. A figure holding a long saber was standing in front of him.

Just then, a dust-covered face turned to look at him.

”Chen Yu!”

Xu Bo was startled.

”If you’re not dead, then get up,” Chen Yu said flatly. Then, he raised his saber and charged straight at the Wilderness Wolf.

”He... he... he’s not dead!”

Xu Bo’s mind was reeling, his pupils trembling.

But there was no time to think. He quickly scrambled to his feet.

”Ma Xiang...”

Spotting another figure, whom he instantly recognized, Xu Bo rubbed his chest, gritted his teeth, and rushed forward to join the fray.

——

SHLICK!!

A white gleam flashed from the blade as Qi flowed into its body. The sharp Alloy Long Saber easily sliced through the Wilderness Wolf’s hide, and blood began to flow.

”AWOOO—!!”

Pain washed over it, and the Wilderness Wolf let out a roar. Its eyes grew even more ferocious as it opened its gaping maw and lunged straight for Chen Yu.

SWOOSH—!

With a sliding step, Chen Yu deftly dodged the Wilderness Wolf’s pounce.

SHLICK—!

With a backhanded slash, he once again cut into the Wilderness Wolf’s hide. He darted forward just as the Wilderness Wolf turned its head back around.

THUD!!!

A charged-up punch landed heavily on the Wilderness Wolf’s head, and the immense force sent the beast’s massive body flying.

Its body hit the ground, kicking up dust.

SWISH!

Wielding his Alloy Long Saber, he dashed forward in a flash. While the Wilderness Wolf was still down, he brought his saber down on its neck.

”AWOOO!!!”

This strike dealt severe damage, and the Wilderness Wolf instantly let out a pained roar.

BAM.

Another charged-up punch struck the Wilderness Wolf’s head, dazing the beast on the spot.

”Die!”

The veins on his arm bulged as Chen Yu swung his saber. Empowered by immense strength, this single strike directly severed the Wilderness Wolf’s head, sending a torrent of blood spewing out.

THUMP—

The Wilderness Wolf’s body collapsed to the ground, its blood staining the earth red.

”Is Chen Yu on something?!”

Watching this scene, Xu Bo and the others felt their eyelids twitch.

He solo-killed a Wilderness Wolf!

Was this the Chen Yu they knew?

”Damn it, move! What the hell are you standing around for?!”

Ma Xiang cursed, brandishing his wooden club. The others quickly snapped out of it and immediately rushed forward.

With one Wilderness Wolf dealt with, the remaining one was no longer a major threat.

The four of them surrounded it, instantly gaining the upper hand.

WHOOSH—!

His long saber whistled through the air. With a flash of the blade, Chen Yu joined the fight.

Relying on his powerful, keen perception, he landed a perfect strike on the Wilderness Wolf’s body, the sharp blade tearing through its flesh.

Empowered by his Qi, the cut was deep enough to reveal bone!

After a cry of pain, the Wilderness Wolf howled and tried to bolt.

”Trying to run!”

Chen Yu raised his saber to intercept it. He infused Qi into the alloy blade, causing the long saber to hum, and with one slash, he slit the Wilderness Wolf’s throat. Blood gushed out.

THUMP!

Its massive body fell to the ground. The Wilderness Wolf was still struggling, so Chen Yu brought his saber down again, ending its life for good.

Chen Yu planted the tip of his saber into the dirt, taking several deep breaths.

Sweat dripped from his forehead.

Bringing up the summoning interface, Chen Yu checked his Source of Life.

He had gained three more points of Source of Life.

Bringing his total to five points of Source of Life.

’Hmm?’

’Why is it different?’ Chen Yu stared at the Source of Life points on the interface, stunned.

’Two Wilderness Wolves, shouldn’t that be two points of Source of Life?’

’Why did I get an extra point?!’

’Isn’t the gain from this thing fixed?’

Chen Yu found it very strange.

’This seems a little off.’

Mutated beasts of the same level should provide a similar amount of Source of Life, but this time it was different. He had gotten one extra point.

’Is it because the Wilderness Wolves are stronger than the hyena-beasts?’

A thought surfaced in Chen Yu’s mind.

”Brother Yu, are you okay?”

Just then, Ma Xiang’s voice broke Chen Yu out of his thoughts.

Chen Yu pulled his saber from the ground and stood up, shaking his head. ”I’m fine.”

Xu Bo and the other two approached, looking at him with embarrassed expressions.

After all, they had abandoned Chen Yu earlier.

They never expected that Chen Yu would end up saving them under these circumstances.

’What on earth happened to him after he left?’

”Chen Yu, thank you for this,” said Li Qiang, one of the three.

”It’s nothing. I’d help anyone in that situation,” Chen Yu said indifferently.

While he didn’t hold their previous abandonment against them, it was impossible for him to be friendly.

”I still have a little water here. Chen Yu, you should drink it.” Huang Li, the only woman among the three, took out a half-empty bottle of water and offered it to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu didn’t refuse. He took the water and drank it all in one go, and some color returned to his face.

”Thanks.” He handed the empty bottle back to Huang Li. She stared at the empty bottle for a moment, then forced a smile. ”It’s nothing.”

”Brother Yu, we should get going. It’ll be bad if more Wilderness Wolves show up,” Ma Xiang suggested.

Chen Yu nodded.

”Um... let’s travel together. It’ll be... safer that way,” Xu Bo said shamelessly.

Ma Xiang didn’t speak, merely looked at Chen Yu.

The other three also looked at Chen Yu.

They had just witnessed his combat prowess with their own eyes. Following Chen Yu would be much safer.

Looking at the three disheveled figures, Chen Yu said with a blank expression, ”You can follow. But if something happens, I can’t promise I’ll be able to look out for you.”

With that, Chen Yu gripped his saber and left. Ma Xiang followed closely behind, and the other three quickly hurried to keep up.

Things like pride had vanished long ago, back when the Crane City Safety Zone fell.

In the barren wasteland, there was no room for pride.

The fact that he didn’t refuse was already giving them face. Acting high and mighty would only get them killed.

——

In the desolate wasteland, the group of five headed toward the Qing City Safety Zone.

Barring any accidents, they would reach the Qing City Safety Zone today.

After cresting a dirt hill, the group suddenly stopped. All eyes were fixed on what lay ahead.

Dozens of meters away, three behemoths were gnawing on a corpse on the ground.

The thick stench of blood filled the air.

”Wilderness Wolves!”

The color drained from their faces.

Gazing at the three Wilderness Wolves, their bodies trembled involuntarily.

At that moment, from dozens of meters away, the three corpse-eating Wilderness Wolves spotted them.

A bloodthirsty light glinted in their eyes.

The air seemed to freeze in that instant.

”Brother Yu... what do we do?” Ma Xiang whispered, suppressing the fear in his heart.

Their first instinct was to run!

But at their speed, they could never outrun a Wilderness Wolf!

Xu Bo and the other two also turned to look at Chen Yu.

In the wilderness, whoever was strongest was the leader.

”Three beasts, five of us. We have the advantage,” Chen Yu said calmly.

”...”

”The four of you, hold off two of the Wilderness Wolves. I’ll take care of one first!”

Chen Yu instructed.

The others swallowed hard and nodded weakly.

”ROAR—!”

All three Wilderness Wolves roared in unison. They leaped forward on their powerful limbs, kicking up a gust of wind as they charged toward Chen Yu’s group.

”Go!”

Chen Yu shouted, gripping his Alloy Long Saber and charging out first.
