Chapter 2321
The Moon Wolves, who were about to succeed, suddenly left. They didn't even care about the corpses in the cave.
The densely packed Moon Wolves outside also retreated like the tide.
The surroundings became quiet. Only the corpses of the Moon Wolves on the ground and the thick smell of blood in the air reminded them of the fierce battle that had just happened.
"What's going on?"
"Did the Moon Wolves retreat?"
Everyone looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"Maybe Zi Chen killed the Wolf King!" Xiang Xuan said.
But even if he killed the Wolf King, the other Moon Wolves shouldn't have retreated. Because they were afraid of Zi Chen, not Xiu Qi and the other three.
Moreover, a Moon Wolf was about to succeed just now and could easily kill him and Xiu Jin.
The four of them were puzzled by this scene, so they decided to go out and take a look.
In any case, this cave no longer served as a shelter. It was the same whether they were outside or inside.
The four of them walked out one after another. Outside, the corpses of the Moon Wolves were piled up like a mountain.
The four of them stepped on the Moon Wolves' corpses and came to a high place. When they saw the scene in front of them, they were all stunned.
In their line of sight, the surrounding mountains had turned snow-white, as if they were covered in snow.
As far as the eye could see, it was snow-white. There was no other color.
The snow-white wasn't real snow, but caused by the Moon Wolves filling up the ground. They were all Moon Wolves.
The number was impossible to estimate, but there were at least 65,555 of them.
Other than the ordinary Moon Wolves, there were many larger Moon Wolves. They had seen the Wolf King's corpse before and knew that those larger Moon Wolves were the Wolf Kings.
There were more than 05 of them.
The four of them were shocked and their faces were ashen. So many Moon Wolves had appeared at once. They should be all the Moon Wolves hunting in this area.
They had gathered together and should be preparing for the final battle before retreating.
How could they survive with so many Moon Wolves?
They looked around and saw Zi Chen and the corpse of the Moon Wolf King at Zi Chen's feet.
The four of them looked at each other and walked toward Zi Chen.
Even if they were to face death, they could choose to die together.
Hearing the footsteps, Zi Chen didn't turn around. His eyes were fixed in front of him.
Xiu Qi and the other three came to Zi Chen's side. Their gazes naturally followed the direction of Zi Chen's gaze. After that, they bitterly smiled, a smile of despair.
At the end of his line of sight stood an even larger Moon Wolf King. Just by looking at its size, one could tell that it was a very powerful existence.
However, what made them feel despair was not the other party's size, but the other party's eyes.
The moment they saw each other's eyes, they felt like they were not looking at a wolf, but a person.
He was the leader of an army, a cold general, and an emperor who held their lives in his hands.
The other party's eyes were wise, cold, and merciless.
The moment they saw each other, the four of them knew very well that there was no chance of survival this time.
Using his knowledge, Xiu Qi said to Zi Chen, "It's at least a Rank 8 Pseudo-Divine Beast, which is equivalent to a Rank 8 Hunter.
But usually, a pseudo-divine beast is much more powerful than a hunter of the same level! "
What he meant was very clear. Even without the countless Moon Wolves, the commander of the Moon Wolf in front of them could kill the five of them.
On the other side, Xiu Jin said, "It should be the commander of this hunt, the president."
Facing the impending death, they were unwilling to accept it, but they did not break down emotionally. In truth, they had long expected this to happen.
If it wasn't for Zi Chen, they would not have been able to hold on for so long.
Zi Chen did not say anything. His gaze was fixed on the strongest Moon Wolf King.
After killing the fourth Moon Wolf King, he saw the other party and kept looking at it.
In front of it, the other Moon Wolf Kings had to bow and scrape. Without its orders, the other Moon Wolf Kings did not dare to move, even though they wanted to kill Zi Chen very much.
The rest of the Moon Wolves left enough space for the four of them. Within that space, the numerous corpses of the Moon Wolves were a ghastly sight.
Zi Chen, who was covered in blood, was also a ghastly sight.
The last four powerful Moon Wolf Kings had dealt him quite a bit of damage. Not only was he injured, but he had also expended a lot of energy. There was only one drop of Sacred Genesis Liquid left in his body.
For some reason, the Moon Wolf commander did not give the order to surround and kill them. Instead, it stood there, indifferently looking in their direction, or rather, indifferently looking at Zi Chen.
The lack of attack made the atmosphere very stifling.
Xiu Qi and the other three did not dare to move, afraid that any slight movements would anger the other party.
Their eyes were filled with confusion, clearly unable to understand the situation before them.
On the other side of the mountain range was a plain. At this moment, the Moon Wolf appeared on the plain once again.
However, the Moon Wolves that appeared this time were all very large. Vines wrapped around their bodies, and on the other end of the vines was a kind of metal cart. The cart was very large, and it was currently filled with the corpses of various pseudo-divine beasts.
There were even some human corpses among them.
This was the meaning of the Moon Wolves' hunt, to bring the food back to the snowy plains.
They stopped when they were about to reach the mountain range, as the cart was unable to climb the mountain.
"Could it be waiting for them? Now that they're all here, are they ready to attack?" Xiu Qi and the other three guessed.
However, they did not attack, and continued to stay where they were.
Time passed second by second, and the tense atmosphere gradually eased. Confusion began to appear on the faces of Xiu Qi and the others.
There were so many Moon Wolves, and a single charge would be enough to wipe them out. However, the other party did not attack.
What were they waiting for?
Were they waiting for the other Moon Wolves?
No one knew the answer, so they could only wait.
However, the taste of waiting for death was clearly not pleasant.
"Zi Chen, what's going on?" After another fifteen minutes, Xiang Xuan couldn't help but ask when she saw that the Moon Wolves had yet to make a move.
Zi Chen shook his head. "I'm not sure."
At this moment, he had also stopped staring at the unique Moon Wolf King. He was also very confused as to why the other party did not give any orders.
"Looking at this scene, there shouldn't be any living creatures left in this area. If we're lucky enough to return alive, there's no need for us to come out." Xiu Qi sighed.
"If we can return alive, there's no need for us to come out. Just these Moon Wolves alone will make us a fortune.
We don't even need to stay in Sohui Town, and can go to other towns. "Tang Pu said.
Under such circumstances, it was not realistic to want to return alive.
Unless the Moon Wolves were willing to let them go, but that was even more unrealistic. They would not let go of a murderer who had wantonly slaughtered their companions.
This stalemate lasted for about two hours, and finally, there was a new change.
At the end of their line of sight, traces of Moon Wolves appeared once again. Following the appearance of these Moon Wolves, the Moon Wolves that had stopped here all turned around and prostrated themselves on the ground, like subjects welcoming their emperor.
There were more than ten Moon Wolves at the end of their line of sight, and each of them was similar in size to the commander in front of them.
In the middle of them, there was a pure white Moon Wolf guarding it. This Moon Wolf was relatively small, about the same size as an ordinary Moon Wolf.
However, looking at the Moon Wolf that was being guarded, everyone felt as if they were looking at a person. Whether it was its demeanor or the way it walked, it was extremely similar to a real human.
These Moon Wolves quickly came over, and wherever they passed, the other Moon Wolves would take the initiative to make way. Soon, they arrived in front of Zi Chen and met the Moon Wolf commander.
Then, the Moon Wolf commander prostrated himself on the ground and bowed like a subject.
The Moon Wolf that was not big in size, but its fur was as white as snow. It nodded lightly and walked past the Moon Wolf. Its eyes fell on Zi Chen.
It was a pair of bright and intelligent eyes that were very pure.
At this moment, these eyes were sizing up Zi Chen, and Zi Chen was also sizing it up.
At this moment, a shocking scene occurred. The Moon Wolf's body actually changed, and it turned from a Moon Wolf into a young girl wearing a white fur coat. She was about sixteen to seventeen years old, and her hands were as slender as jade. Her ten fingers wrapped around the fur coat, and her clear eyes looked at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen was very surprised by this scene, and his gaze fluctuated.
Beside him, Xiu Qi and the other three were so shocked that they could not say a word.
Actually, it was not appropriate to say that they were shocked. It was more appropriate to say that they were shocked.
In this world, there were pseudo-divine beasts that could transform, but they were all legendary existences. Existences that were ridiculously powerful only lived in legends.
They did not expect to see such an existence today, and it was a Moon Wolf that had transformed into one.
Although she had manifested a harmless young girl, this was only her appearance. As long as the other party had the ability to transform, she would be a super terrifying existence. With a light flick of her finger, she would be able to kill the five of them.
Clearly, the reason why the Moon Wolves had not attacked yet was because of her existence. But what was such an expert doing here?
Was she thinking of a way to kill them?
That was not very likely, because existences at their level were like ants in her eyes.
Sizing up Zi Chen, the young girl blinked her bright eyes. She looked at Zi Chen and said, "According to the promise from back then, I will spare your life today."
Her voice was crisp and light, just like her appearance at this moment, as pure as a snow lotus.
These words were directed at Zi Chen, because the young girl did not even look at Xiu Qi and the other three.
"Promise?
What promise? "Zi Chen asked, his eyes filled with confusion.
The young girl looked at Zi Chen and said, "You don't need to know, and you don't have the qualifications to know.
You are too weak. It's hard to imagine that you are related. "
Hearing her words, Zi Chen was even more confused.
He guessed that it was because of Yi Qian. Yi Qian was known as a goddess, but after coming here, he had not seen her.
In this world, the only person who was willing to help him was Yi Qian.
But this young girl was talking about back then, which was clearly something from a long time ago. But he had been here for less than a year.
"Is the person you are talking about a man or a woman?" Zi Chen asked again.
"You are too weak. Although the promise has been fulfilled, it will be a disgrace to the Moon Empress' bloodline."
The young girl spoke very seriously, her eyes still clear. She did not have any intention of belittling Zi Chen, but her words were very hurtful.
