Paul Carter shouted at Eric Bennett, his feet moving in a mysterious pattern as he dodged the blue-eyed green wolf and ran toward Eric Bennett.

　　After seeing Paul Carter's footwork, Eric Bennett's eyes narrowed sharply. He had just been wondering how Paul Carter managed to evade the green wolf's pursuit and survive for so long. Now, upon seeing this footwork, he immediately understood that it must be thanks to this technique. The steps were extremely strange—whenever the green wolf pounced on him, he would instantly dodge away.

　　Even if he couldn't completely avoid it, he would still dodge the vital spots. So although Paul Carter appeared to be covered in blood, not a single wound was fatal.

　　Seeing Eric Bennett standing there in a daze, Paul Carter's face showed a hint of joy. His previously strange footwork instantly turned into a straight sprint, and his speed at least doubled.

　　Eric Bennett had never learned any footwork techniques; he was just running with brute force, and he was carrying someone on his back, which further slowed him down.

　　"Eric Bennett, save me!" Paul Carter shouted to him as he saw himself getting closer to Eric Bennett.

　　Hearing Paul Carter's words, Eric Bennett's body paused for a moment, and in that brief instant, Paul Carter arrived behind him.

　　Looking at Eric Bennett's back, a trace of viciousness flashed across Paul Carter's face as he swung his palm toward the back of Eric Bennett's head.

　　He had been running for nearly half an hour but still couldn't shake off the green wolf. He had thought he was doomed today, but unexpectedly ran into Eric Bennett, which gave him hope for survival.

　　As Eric Bennett was sprinting, he suddenly felt a gust of force coming at his back.

　　"Paul Carter, how dare you!" Eric Bennett instantly realized what was happening and shouted angrily. He hadn't expected Paul Carter to be so treacherous.

　　"Heh, Eric Bennett, sorry, but I have a bright future ahead of me—I can't die here. Don't worry, after you're dead, I'll remember your kindness!" In response to Eric Bennett's angry shout, Paul Carter just sneered coldly. But he didn't notice that, upon seeing this palm strike, a cold smile appeared at the corner of Eric Bennett's mouth.

　　"Paul Carter, you despicable scoundrel!" Brian Cooper also witnessed this scene and shouted angrily at Paul Carter.

　　Paul Carter couldn't care less about Brian Cooper's curses. They were as good as dead anyway, so he couldn't be bothered.

　　Seeing his palm, carrying a gust of force, about to land on Eric Bennett's back, Paul Carter's face showed a hint of joy. With his strength of 350 jin, he could kill even a wild beast with one blow, let alone Eric Bennett, whose body was weak and only at the second level of body refinement.

　　As long as he left behind Eric Bennett and Brian Cooper to block the blue-eyed green wolf for a moment, he could escape from here.

　　"Bang!"

　　With a dull thud, Paul Carter's palm landed solidly on Eric Bennett's back.

　　Upon hearing the sound, Brian Cooper's face filled with despair, and he closed his eyes, not daring to look.

　　Seeing his palm land on Eric Bennett, the smile at the corner of Paul Carter's mouth widened. But in the next instant, his smile vanished, replaced by shock, and finally terror, as he staggered back several steps.

　　And Eric Bennett? Using the force of Paul Carter's palm, he actually moved even faster, putting more distance between the two of them.

　　As Paul Carter retreated, his terrified eyes glanced at his own palm, then at the rapidly moving Eric Bennett, a look of confusion appearing on his face.

　　He couldn't understand what had happened. With this palm, even if Eric Bennett was at the third level of body refinement, he would have lost the ability to fight instantly, let alone at the second level. Yet Eric Bennett seemed completely unharmed, leaving him dumbfounded.

　　While he was still puzzled, a wave of hot, foul-smelling breath suddenly blew over his head. Instinctively, Paul Carter looked back, only to see a huge wolf head with its bloody maw wide open, just inches away. In the wolf's blue, emotionless eyes, there now seemed to be a hint of mockery.

　　"Crunch!"

　　With a crisp sound, Paul Carter's head was bitten by the green wolf's bloody jaws. Even in death, Paul Carter's face was frozen in confusion and terror.

　　Seeing Paul Carter die, Eric Bennett snorted coldly in his heart, a trace of disdain flashing by. Third level of body refinement, 300 jin of strength—so what? How could that break his defense?

　　Just now, Eric Bennett could have dodged the palm. After all, he was at the sixth level of body refinement, with 600 jin of strength. Even if Paul Carter had footwork, he couldn't possibly catch up to Eric Bennett. But Eric Bennett deliberately didn't dodge, planning to set up Paul Carter. After all, when Paul Carter ran toward him, Eric Bennett already understood his intention to "draw disaster eastward." Little did Paul Carter know, Eric Bennett was playing along with his scheme.

　　"Hmm?"

　　Suddenly, Eric Bennett's eyes narrowed slightly. After biting Paul Carter to death, the blue-eyed green wolf didn't pause at all, but continued to pounce at Eric Bennett.

　　"Climb the tree!" Knowing that his speed was much slower than the blue-eyed green wolf, Eric Bennett said this to Brian Cooper, who was on his back.

　　Seeing Brian Cooper climb the tree, Eric Bennett breathed a slight sigh of relief, gripped his thick-backed knife, and focused intently on the blue-eyed green wolf.

　　Basic saber technique—"Chop"!

　　As the blue-eyed green wolf lunged at him, a sharp glint flashed in Eric Bennett's eyes. The thick-backed knife flashed like lightning, the blade whistling sharply as it slashed fiercely at the head of the charging blue-eyed green wolf.

　　With Eric Bennett's 600 jin of strength, the slash landed on the blue-eyed green wolf's head, and instantly a bloody gash appeared.
