330: Chapter 328: Demon Wolf King 330: Chapter 328: Demon Wolf King A middle-aged man with a weathered face spoke steadily, his tone still moderate and polite, “Everyone, please calm down. Miss Li is still young and may not understand the gravity of the situation; there is no need to overwhelm a junior in such a manner.” He turned to look at Li Jiujiu and said, “Regardless of whether the young lady truly possesses a rare treasure, whether to inform us is at her discretion. There is no need for anyone to react so fervently.” Li Jiujiu thought to herself that finally, someone reasonable had spoken. She nodded her head in acknowledgment and was about to leave. Yet the middle-aged man signaled with his eyes, and immediately two people obstructed her path. Li Jiujiu couldn’t hide her emotions and said angrily, “What does this mean?” The middle-aged cultivator from Feiyue stated, “With the young lady’s strength, since she is unable to obtain the Ghost Crystal, it would be better for her to rest well here. This round, let me take the young lady’s place.” This middle-aged cultivator did not step forward when everyone had previously asked her to leave Cold Pavilion to seek the Ghost Crystal. Li Jiujiu wasn’t foolish; she knew what he was plotting. She slowly turned around and said, “Are you worried that I will abandon you all?” It was laughable, for with her cultivation still present here, she would not be of any help to them. So it seemed that going out to face death was acceptable, but fleeing alone was absolutely forbidden. The middle-aged cultivator lowered his eyes and said, “I think even Zhang, who protected you earlier, would not readily let the young lady leave.” Li Jiujiu finally understood. It was nothing more than the inherent failing of humanity. Whether she lived or died was insignificant to them; the true concern was if she would leave this place and reveal the news of the mine, which they did not want to occur. Even with a treasure for protection, she ultimately would not be able to leave this place surrounded by cultivators of the Sea Expansion Realm. The middle-aged cultivator exited Cold Pavilion for her, controlling his sword to vanish into the darkness. Zhang Yaotang pulled Li Jiujiu aside and whispered, “Although we are not from the same sect, my aunt has shown you a lot of affection on the journey. I thought we had already formed no inconsiderable friendship. Jiujiu, your words and actions today have truly disappointed me.” Li Jiujiu, still young, felt a surge of frustration and sadness at being reproached in such a manner. She said, “I don’t know what I have done to deeply disappoint you, Zhang. Could this so-called disappointment be mere unfounded malicious speculation?” Zhang Yaotang’s eyes brightened as he said, “Could it be that Jiujiu never thought of leaving?” Li Jiujiu shook her head, “Before descending Ghost Mountain, Elder Wen left a bell rope on me. With it, I can find her.” Hearing this explanation, Zhang Yaotang’s expression eased somewhat, and he said, “That may be true, but Jiujiu, you must understand. Although she is my aunt, the ore vein here is extraordinary. If I were to present it to the sect, the credit would be mine, and my prospects within the Jingyue Sect would then be boundless. My aunt already holds a high position and status; there is no need to gild the lily with this contribution.” As he spoke, his gaze turned eager, and he reached out to grasp her hand, “I have nothing but sincere feelings for Jiujiu. If I achieve anything in the future, I will naturally not treat you unfairly.” Li Jiujiu had not expected to hear such words, especially with his wife nearby. A feeling of disgust arose within her, and she avoided his approaching hand. The last remnants of courtesy in her eyes dissipated without a trace. “Zhang Yaotang, have some self-respect!” Zhang Yaotang’s face flushed with embarrassment as his wife’s gaze sliced across his face like a knife. He awkwardly withdrew his hand and looked outside the pavilion, saying, “Strange, why hasn’t Ren Dechuan returned yet?” It wasn’t a deliberate change of topic; most people within the pavilion wore expressions of concern. Ren Dechuan was the middle-aged cultivator who had gone out in search of the Ghost Crystal. The Ghost Pearl on the eaves was riddled with cracks and could shatter at any moment. Once the defending Spiritual Artifact was broken, they would have no way to fly out of the territory of the rotten corpse Demon Wolves with Sword Control. Another quarter of an hour passed. For an entire hour, no one could withstand the Demon Wolves that spread across the mountains and plains. If Ren Dechuan had not yet returned, then only one possibility remained. Everyone’s faces began to show the despair of a trapped beast. Only Mou Chen showed no signs of sorrow in his eyes, taking it for granted as he asked, “Who is next?” Everyone’s expressions changed drastically, for Ren Dechuan was the oldest among them and, aside from Mou Chen, had the most profound cultivation. Yet this time he went out, he never returned… Just then, in the darkness nearby, two faint green flames ignited. Everyone held their breath as if suffocating. Having fought through the night, they all understood that these green flames were the eyes of the rotten corpse Demon Wolves. However, they had never seen such chillingly bright eyes of a Demon Wolf before. Red-brown wolf fur passed through the darkness, and this Demon Wolf actually walked upright on its hind legs. Its powerful limbs still resembled those of a Demon Wolf, but from its waist up, it had transformed to resemble a human by eighty percent. Its face and features were outlined like a man’s, but covered with a layer of murderous red-brown fur. Its shoulders were broad, its figure tall and sturdy, like a wall, and even from a distance, the stench of decay emanated from its body. This rotten corpse Demon Wolf… had actually Transformed! When the people inside the pavilion saw what he was dragging in his hand, their faces turned pale. It was Ren Dechuan. His death was gruesome, with an arrow piercing through the center of his forehead, boring a terrible black hole through his spirit platform and soul. His eyes and viscera had been gouged out, leaving a bloody, chaotic trail behind. Behind this half-Transformed rotten corpse Demon Wolf, a sea of Demon Wolves licked the fresh blood on the ground, their cruel nature glinting in their eerie green eyes. The leading Demon Wolf King had a mocking human glint in his eyes. He flung Ren Dechuan high into the air, a full hundred meters high. The pack of Demon Wolves behind him let out famished roars and leaped, stepping on their kin to reach the same height, catching him in their jaws! Then they tore him apart protectively, as if sharing prey. And soon, his body was divided clean. Such a gruesome scene made everyone’s spine tingle. An Eighth-grade Sea Expansion Realm cultivator had died just like that. If they were to be attacked by so many Demon Wolves, even if they could control their swords, the time they could fly at a certain height was limited, and it wouldn’t be faster than the jumping speed of the wolves. A single bite would mean a death with no place for burial! This Demon Wolf King was deliberately demonstrating his power to them! Wolves surrounded them. The half-human Demon Wolf came to the corner of the pavilion, and as everyone watched in terror, his hand reached through the protective barrier of the Spiritual Artifact. The Array Light flickered, dissolving the fur-covered back of his hand into blood and flesh, revealing white bones. Seeing this scene, everyone felt a surge of tension, but still couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
