Chapter 168 Huyi Wolf Demon

Chapter 168 Huyi Wolf Demon

"This bead...this bead was just taken from Ling Feng!" The disciple said in a flash, then nervously lowered his head, not daring to look at Lin Xiu's expression.

Bai Ke chuckled upon hearing this, turned around, and walked over to Lin Xiu. Observing the somewhat unpleasant expression on Lin Xiu's face, he raised a hand and patted Lin Xiu's shoulder, seemingly to comfort him, saying:

"Junior Brother Lin Xiu, you don't need to carry it. Since this bead was found on Ling Feng, there's no need to trouble you. I'll keep it safe for now."

As he spoke, he took the bead back from Lin Xiu's hand. At this point, you might be wondering why Lin Xiu didn't make any move and let Bai Ke take the bead so easily.

Actually, it was because when Bai Ke patted Lin Xiu on the shoulder, he had secretly activated his spiritual power to imprison Lin Xiu, making him unable to move. Only after he retrieved the item did he release the restriction.

Just kidding, Bai Ke doesn't want to cause trouble and fight Lin Xiu at this critical juncture. Who knows where those elders are watching?

If it gets recorded that the two of them fought over a single bead, disregarding the rules, especially since he is the chief disciple of Tian Ce Palace...

He's not stupid; regardless of whose fault it is, it will inevitably have a significant impact on him. So, there's really no need to create unnecessary trouble, which is why he came up with this method.

"Bai Ke, you... don't go too far!" Lin Xiu said angrily to Bai Ke as soon as he was released from his restraints and recovered.

Bai Ke ignored him, having no intention of wasting any more time entangled with Lin Xiu.

Lin Xiu, seeing that Bai Ke was ignoring him, watched as Bai Ke and his group prepared to leave.

His face, which had been filled with indignation just moments before, suddenly calmed down, a few sneers on his lips, as if everything he had just done was intentional.

From the events that just occurred until Bai Ke obtained the bead, Lin Xiu was indeed deliberately concealing her abilities to lull Bai Ke into a false sense of security.

Before leaving, his father subtly hinted to him that there must be a great opportunity behind this training, and that the sect would definitely not issue dangerous missions to people like them.

Therefore, you must pay attention to all the clues during the mission. It is best to deliberately hide your strengths and let Bai Ke take the lead while you reap the benefits.

"Bai Ke, we'll see!" Lin Xiu said softly, watching Bai Ke's retreating figure.

Just then, Bai Ke was about to have Ling Feng taken away with everyone when suddenly a wolf howled. Judging from the sound, it seemed to be very close to them.

Lin Xiu, who was not far away, naturally heard the commotion and couldn't help but smile even more broadly.

"Senior Brother, there's the sound of wolves. Could it be the wolf demon Hu Yi?" a disciple who was following Bai Ke asked.

"That must be it. It seems we've lured that wolf here after all. You all step back," Bai Ke instructed his disciples.

As soon as they finished speaking, they saw pairs of wolf eyes, glowing with an eerie green light, gazing at them from the dense forest not far away, though the thick fog obscured their view.

Seeing this, the disciples became vigilant, lest the pack of wolf demons pounce at any moment.

With another howl, the wolf demon led its pack of wolves out of the woods toward Bai Ke and his companions.

Bai Ke looked at the wolf demon Hu Yi, who was the leader of the group. Hu Yi was gray all over except for a tuft of white fur on his forehead. Standing there and staring at Bai Ke, Hu Yi had a kingly aura.

The pack of wolf demons stared intently at the person in front of them. Bai Ke thought to himself that the wolf demons were probably thinking about how to tear this person apart and swallow him whole.

You ask him why he thinks that way? Well, if... Bai Ke could ignore the wolf demon's constant drooling, the drool on the ground would almost be a puddle.

In the blink of an eye, the leading wolf demon suddenly pounced on Bai Ke. The wolves following behind, seeing their leader move, also rushed towards Bai Ke.

Yes, all the wolf demons pounced on Bai Ke alone. Lin Xiu couldn't help but smile smugly, watching the scene with great interest.

He was waiting to see Bai Ke make a fool of himself, waiting for Bai Ke to ask him for help. "People shouldn't be too arrogant," Lin Xiu thought gleefully. "Look what's happened, trouble is brewing."

At this moment, the disciples who had just gone out to scout returned, and were surprised to see this scene. They then stepped forward and said to Lin Xiu:

"Senior Brother Lin Xiu, this situation... should we help our eldest brother? What if he can't handle it? These are wolves!"

"Don't worry, your senior brother is very capable! A mere wolf demon can't do anything to him. Let's just watch from the sidelines and not go in to help, which would only cause trouble for our senior brother. If we see that our senior brother is in trouble, then it's not too late for us to step in, right?"

The disciples, upon hearing this, felt there was some truth to it, but something seemed off, though they couldn't quite put their finger on it. They could only stand at a distance and watch the battle with Lin Xiu.

Not to mention others, even the disciples who followed Bai Ke were dumbfounded. What was going on?

After a moment of stunned silence, he immediately realized what was happening and quickly drew his longsword to help Bai Ke.

But the pack of wolves charged forward one after another as if they were fearless. Bai Ke and his group were few in number, and the disciples did not have much experience in training outside, so they seemed a bit flustered.

Bai Ke thought to himself, "This can't go on. They're only coming for me, probably because of the bead in my hand."

"Just as I predicted, this bead is definitely connected to Ling Feng and this wolf demon. We can't remain passive like this; I must finish this quickly!"

So Bai Ke channeled his energy into his hands, circulated it once, and then waved it forward. The wolf demons were immediately injured by the shockwave and fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of this lull, Bai Ke continued to circulate his internal energy, and a Tai Chi mark appeared in his palm as he unleashed the playing cards.

He selected five cards with fire elements, infused them with spiritual power, and launched the playing cards at the pack of wolf demons.

The five playing cards instantly grew larger in mid-air, transforming into walls that blocked the wolf demons' attack.

Then, as soon as the playing card sensed the wolf demon's attack, it began to breathe fire at them.

The wolf demons were so frightened by the sight of the fire that they retreated one after another. Some of them were caught off guard and were burned by the fire. Instantly, the pitiful cries of "howling" echoed from the wolf pack.

Ordinary fire wouldn't harm these wolf demons, but the fire in these playing cards was no ordinary fire.

This fire was the Samadhi True Fire refined by the system, so it was naturally extraordinary. Before long, a strong smell of burning filled the air.

At this moment, Bai Ke pressed his advantage and used his spiritual power to send three water element playing cards flying into the wolf pack.

The three water element cards were inserted between the five fire element cards, blocking the wolf demon's retreat and completely surrounding them.
