What surprised William Bennett was that the thick-backed blade only cut half an inch before being stopped. But thinking about it, this was a tier-two fierce beast—William Bennett being able to break through its defense was already impressive.
"Awuu!" The "Blue-Eyed Green Wolf" let out a long howl, its massive head whipping around. Eric Bennett felt a tremendous force travel through the long blade, and he was instantly sent flying.
"Bang!" With a loud crash, a tree as thick as a bowl was snapped in half by Eric Bennett's impact. Pfft! A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from Eric Bennett's mouth.
"As expected of a tier-two fierce beast! Its strength far surpasses that of a human tier-two martial artist!" Eric Bennett watched the blue-eyed green wolf in front of him cautiously, thinking to himself.
"Awuu... awuu..."
This blue-eyed green wolf had lived here for over a year, and it was the first time it had suffered such an injury, causing it to howl madly.
"It's the blue-eyed green wolf!"
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Jack Bolton and the others suddenly heard the wild howls, and their hearts tightened. At this moment, Michael Bolton spoke up.
Michael Bolton had been coming and going here for ten years and was extremely familiar with these sounds.
Hearing Michael Bolton's words, Jack Bolton's face immediately turned very ugly. Last time, it was because of this blue-eyed green wolf that he almost died on the outskirts of the Tianlang Mountain Range. This time, he came to overcome his inner demons, but he wasn't sure if the blue-eyed green wolf was still around, so he had the Flying Tiger Team scout ahead to avoid being ambushed by the wolf.
Moreover, Jack Bolton knew that blue-eyed green wolves were pack beasts. One wolf wouldn't scare them with so many people, but if there was a whole pack, even twice their number might not be enough to survive.
So even if some Flying Tiger Team members died, Jack Bolton wouldn't care. Besides, these team members weren't from the Zhang family. Today they might help the Zhangs, but tomorrow they could work for someone else. So, if such people died, so be it.
"Is there only this one?"
After hearing several howls from the blue-eyed green wolf with no response from others, Michael Bolton muttered in confusion, glancing at Jack Bolton and the others.
Chapter 10: Killing the Wolf
If there was only one blue-eyed green wolf, they could handle it. If they were afraid of even this, they would never be able to enter the outskirts of the Tianlang Mountain Range in their lifetime.
Not only Michael Bolton, but the others also looked at Jack Bolton.
"Let's go!" After hesitating for a long time, Jack Bolton's face pale, he spoke harshly, then turned and headed up the mountain.
...
Eric Bennett struggled to get up from the ground, staring at the blue-eyed green wolf before him. The ferocity of this tier-two beast had exceeded his expectations.
"Awuu...!"
After a few wild howls, the blue-eyed green wolf leapt at Eric Bennett again.
Basic blade technique—slash!
Watching the wolf pounce, Eric Bennett sidestepped and swung his blade horizontally. Instantly, another wound appeared on the wolf, but Eric Bennett himself was knocked flying by the wolf's charge and crashed heavily to the ground.
After falling, Eric Bennett rolled and stood up, gripping his blade and watching the wolf. At this moment, Eric Bennett was secretly glad he practiced body refinement; if he were a martial cultivator, this blow might have cost him half his life.
The blue-eyed green wolf also watched Eric Bennett cautiously. Eric Bennett hadn't been taken down, and instead, it had gained two more wounds. This made it wary of attacking recklessly.
After a moment, the blue-eyed green wolf howled, its body suddenly lunging forward like a streak of blue lightning, a fierce wind accompanying its charge toward Eric Bennett.
At this point, the wolf was using all its strength. Wherever it passed, rocks flew and trees toppled—anything in its way was smashed to pieces.
Let alone a body refiner—even some tier-one or tier-two martial artists would be overwhelmed by its aura, unable to move at all.
The blue-eyed green wolf, carrying an unparalleled might, arrived in an instant. Its sharp claws gleamed with a dark, cold light as they struck at Eric Bennett's head.
"Ah!!" Seeing the wolf's terrifying momentum, Eric Bennett knew his physical strength alone wasn't enough, so he gritted his teeth and roared, frantically activating the basic breathing technique.
As Eric Bennett circulated the breathing technique, he suddenly froze inside—at some point, the spiritual energy in his dantian had completely filled up.
Seeing so much spiritual energy, Eric Bennett grew worried, fearing his meridians couldn't withstand the flow.
But with the massive wolf lunging at him, Eric Bennett couldn't care about that anymore. He gritted his teeth and continued to circulate the energy wildly.
As he did, the violent spiritual energy surged through his meridians, and cracks began to appear in the fragile channels. Pain twisted Eric Bennett's face.
"Ahhh!!!" The rupture of his meridians made Eric Bennett roar in agony. If not for his strong body, his weak meridians would have caused him to explode and die by now.
"Buzz!" As Eric Bennett activated his technique, the blade in his hand began to tremble lightly, a faint white glow enveloping the entire blade.
The blue-eyed green wolf also sensed a dangerous aura from Eric Bennett's blade. But, wounded and driven mad, it had only one thought left—to kill Eric Bennett.
