Chapter 17

Not far away, in a patch of snow-covered grass, a white blur lunged at a guard! Logan Grant saw it clearly—it was a huge, snow-white silver wolf! Its pair of wolf eyes, gleaming with a vicious green light, were fixed intently on that guard! The guard’s face changed dramatically!

The flash of a blade tore through the air like thunder! Brian Harris took a single stride, covering several zhang in an instant.

“Swish!”

The massive wolf’s head flew skyward, and its hundred-plus jin body crashed heavily to the ground. Wolf blood sprayed like a fountain, drenching the guard from head to toe!

“Not good! We’re too close to Silver Wolf Valley. These beasts have caught our scent!” Logan Grant shouted loudly, gripping his blade tightly.

The group surrounded Grace Grant in the center. Brian Harris sheathed his blade and snatched the guard’s bow and arrows. Drawing the bow to its full arc, in a flash of lightning, he fired ten arrows in rapid succession!

“Awooo!”

A tremendous roar echoed to the heavens. The snow on the surrounding trees fell in a flurry, blocking everyone’s view like a blizzard! Through the swirling snow, a pack of green-glowing eyes could be seen closing in!

Brian Harris kept drawing and firing, and the wolves’ anguished howls rang out again and again. With just one bow, he suppressed the entire wolf pack! Grace Grant, gripping a long blade, stood at the center of the group, her face grave. “We only brought three quivers of arrows into the mountains this time! We’re almost out!”

The guard, soaked in wolf blood and having narrowly escaped death, shouted, “Captain Harris! We’ll hold them off here—take the young lady and go!” With that, he swung his long blade and stabbed another silver wolf to death.

The arrows were gone!

“Don’t talk nonsense! If I leave, you’ll all be wolf dung in an instant! Besides, we’re already surrounded by the pack—how am I supposed to get the young lady out?” Brian Harris roared, tossing aside the bow and arrows. With a flash of his blade, he forced back three silver wolves.

The wolf pack was ferocious and fearless, hurling themselves at the group one after another. In no time, wolf corpses littered the ground!

“Ah!”

A scream rang out! Logan Grant hefted his blade, his small figure splattered with wolf blood! In just a short while, he had killed seven silver wolves—his tally surpassed any of the guards, second only to Brian Harris!

“Peter Reed!”

“Damn beasts!”

“That’s the wolf king!”

The guards roared in fury, their long blades felling several giant wolves. The death of their comrades drove them nearly mad!

It was a giant wolf over a zhang in length, even larger than a tiger. In a sudden attack, it bit through a guard’s skull in one snap! With the corpse still in its jaws, it cast a savage glare at the group before vanishing into the pack!

Basic blade techniques are divided into eight forms: sweep, chop, parry, slice, graze, block, slash, and thrust. Logan Grant’s basic blade technique was at level four—equivalent to four years of practice for an ordinary person, already surpassing everyone present. But with the addition of William Turner’s grandmaster memories, everything was different!

“My blade technique is improving!” Logan Grant’s eyes shone. “My Xingyi Fist is improving too! Actual combat really is the fastest way to progress. Bullying Emily Foster every day is definitely not the right way to use the Mirror of All Worlds!” Logan Grant gritted his teeth inwardly, his blade movements becoming even smoother and more fluid.

“Shhk! Shhk!” Wolves were sent flying one after another. Logan Grant scanned the surroundings, when suddenly, a giant wolf lunged from the pack, its gaping maw reeking as it rushed at him! Logan Grant’s face changed dramatically!

“The Silver Wolf King!”

“Pay for Peter Reed’s life!” Brian Harris roared, his muscles bulging. With a powerful step, he surged forward, kicking up waves of snow!

Logan Grant’s face changed, but his mind was icy calm. “This is what I’ve been waiting for!” The killing intent Logan Grant had been building since Peter Reed’s tragic death suddenly erupted!

“Kill!”

Logan Grant slashed upward with a diagonal cut, the blade tearing through the air with a violent rip, striking hard at the giant wolf’s throat beneath its jaw!

“Shhk!”

Blood sprayed onto Logan Grant’s face. Without pausing to wipe it away, he rolled aside.

“Boom!”

In the next instant, Brian Harris’s blade exploded with force! The giant wolf’s body split open, its thousand-jin mass cleaved completely in two! Blood and entrails splattered everywhere!

“Awooo!” From the rear of the wolf pack came a roar like the sky collapsing and the earth cracking! An even larger snow-white giant wolf, far bigger than the one just killed, charged forward in a frenzy!

“Awooo!” All the silver wolves cowered on the ground, trembling, not daring to rise even as they were hacked and slashed!

Logan Grant lay prone on the ground, his eyes involuntarily narrowing! His heart pounded!

That giant wolf’s white fur shimmered with a blinding silver light, its massive head bristling with outward-curving fangs, and its pair of blood-red eyes radiated a soul-chilling malice! The snow and dead branches on the ground were flung up like a curtain several zhang high, and with an overwhelming, tragic momentum, it crashed through every giant tree in its path!

“What?!”

“That was just the pack leader before! This is the true Silver Wolf King!”

“We’re doomed!”

“Scatter, now!”

Everyone scattered in a panic, faces ashen with terror!

Only Grace Grant pulled out a signal arrow and shot it high into the sky with a “whoosh!”

Chapter 0012: The Might of the Qi Sect!

“So this is a demon beast—the Silver Wolf King!” Logan Grant lay on the ground. Raging currents of air whipped up the snow, and the Silver Wolf King, exuding an overwhelming aura, crossed dozens of zhang in a single instant, charging straight at Brian Harris under everyone’s horrified gaze!

“Boom!”

“Ah!”

“Crack!”

A guard, unable to dodge in time, was flung high into the air by the sickening sound of bones shattering, and after a single scream, fell silent!
