Chapter 134: Attacked by a Pack of Wolves, Part 1

What? This herb is truly that miraculous?

Luo Xia chuckled. "Zhaocai, do you want to use it?"

Zhaocai shrieked, "Master, you are so wicked! I am still just a child; how could I possibly bear offspring?"

Haha, since this herb is so magical, it must be cultivated with great care.

Luo Xia uprooted the Monster-Luring Herb and handed it to Zhaocai. Zhaocai promptly placed it inside the space to grow.

Seeing Luo Xia acting as if she had discovered a priceless treasure, Pang Qingyu couldn't help but mock her, "Treating a weed like a treasure—I can't believe you're actually smiling so happily!"

Luo Xia just smiled without answering.

*The world laughs at my madness; I laugh at the world for failing to see the truth!*

"Master, now that we have collected the Monster-Luring Herb, let’s leave quickly. A powerful magical beast is coming; if we don’t go now, it will be too late," Zhaocai said after planting the herb.

Luo Xia understood. She turned to look at Pang Qingyu, her beautiful eyes shimmering. "We are going to find Wuying now."

Pang Qingyu had not expected that this woman would refuse to give up. She glared at Luo Xia in a rage. "Are you insane?"

Luo Xia remained calm and composed. "I am not insane, and furthermore, I am confident that I can subdue those two ninth-rank magical beasts."

"What?" Pang Qingyu gasped, then erupted in fury. "You don't even bother to draft your lies before bragging! Luo Xia, you really are shameless!"

Luo Xia smiled serenely. "Miss Pang, I cherish my life; I would not attempt something I am not confident about. Let’s go."

In truth, she was merely telling a white lie, hoping to get Pang Qingyu away from this place quickly. A herb this miraculous was bound to be guarded by a powerful magical beast; it was likely just away for the moment.

"Wait." Pang Qingyu blocked Luo Xia’s path. "There are over a dozen wolves heading this way."

After saying this, Pang Qingyu scanned their current terrain and analyzed, "The situation is extremely dangerous. Stay close to me."

Luo Xia felt a sense of dread. Could these be the same dozen wolves that had attacked her and Wangyou? Does this mean Wangyou was eaten by them?

Zhaocai trembled violently. "Master, I’m so scared. There really are many wolves coming."

"I told you to follow me—are you deaf?" When Pang Qingyu walked a few steps and saw that Luo Xia hadn't followed, she ran back in a huff and dragged her along. Her grip was so forceful that it bruised Luo Xia.

Luo Xia knew this girl meant well, so she didn't hold it against her.

As soon as the two emerged from the thicket, they were left stunned by what they saw. Standing before them were more than a dozen wolves, every one of their maws stained with fresh blood.

A pungent, bloody stench filled the air, so foul it made one want to retch.

Luo Xia’s eyes were sharp; she recognized them as the same pack that had attacked her and Wangyou. It seemed they had feasted on many animals along the way. It was highly probable that Wangyou had become their meal.

What a pity for such a handsome man.

However, he deserved it—who told him to be so wicked! Hmph, if it weren't for Wangyou intercepting her, she would surely be with Wuying right now!

Pang Qingyu had gained plenty of experience over the years, but she had always been by her brother's side. Facing so many wolves alone, with Luo Xia, who had no spiritual power, by her side, she felt the pressure was immense.

Pang Qingyu pushed Luo Xia toward a large tree. "Climb up!"

"Ah?" Luo Xia was caught off guard.

"You're so dense! You can't even climb a tree? You deserve to die!" With that, Pang Qingyu grabbed Luo Xia with one hand and tossed her onto the tree.

Luo Xia, "..."

By the time she stood firmly on the branch, she marveled at the fact that Miss Pang’s cultivation was actually quite impressive. But what exactly was her intention in tossing her up here?
