Chapter 1215: Wolves Again


    “Youngdy, is he a candidate to be the Ruler?” the old man asked curiously.


    The old man was a martial artist, so he knew how hard it was to break through to the high-level master stage.


    Bing a martial artist at the high-level master stage in just two years was something that he had never heard before.


    He was sure no one had achieved it before. This was the reason why he still found it hard to believe what he was hearing.


    “Wait! Let me change my question? Did he really be a martial artist at the high-level master stage in just two years?” the old man wanted to make sure that Crystal did not lie to him.


    “Elder, please forget what I just said.” Crystal wanted the old man to forget everything because it would put Xiao Tian in dangerter.


    “Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone about this. I’m living in the forest alone, so you don’t need to worry about it.” the old man responded instantly. “Now, please answer my question honestly.”


    When Crystal remembered they were in the forest, she was relieved. The old man was living alone in the forest, so he could not tell a single soul about Xiao Tian.


    When Crystal did not answer his question, the old man asked again, “Youngdy, why didn’t you answer my question?”


    Crystal stopped chopping the firewood and looked at the old man.


    She decided not to answer his previous question because she was afraid that something bad would happen to Xiao Tian.


    “Because you don’t want to answer my question, then my guess is right. I have been living in the forest for ten years now.” the old man spoke and paused for a second before he continued, “I did not expect the first person I met was the candidate to be the Ruler. Life is sure interesting.”


    Crystal began chopping firewood again.


    At this moment, Xiao Tian walked towards them while carrying buckets. “What are you talking about?”


    Crystal and the old man turned their heads towards Xiao Tian.


    “Nothing.” Crystal lied to Xiao Tian.


    “Crystal, just take it easy. You can rest if you are tired. I will help you chop the firewood after finishing my task.” Xiao Tian said as he walked past her.


    “It’s fine.” Crystal replied instantly.


    After Xiao Tian poured water into the bath, he returned to the well again.


    When Xiao Tian was far from them, the old man inquired, “Are you sure you two are just friends?”


    The old man’s questions much surprised Crystal.


    She did not expect him to ask something like that. “Yes. We are friends.”


    “But doesn’t he care about you too much?” the old man knew that Xiao Tian carried Crystal every day. “Why don’t you two just be lovers? He really cares about you, and you say he is a sessful young man. Isn’t he a perfect person to be your lover?”


    From Xiao Tian’s behavior, the old man knew that Crystal was really important to him.


    “Because I’m his important friend.” Crystal gave an honest answer.


    “You mean more than friends and less than lovers?” the old man teased her.


    “I mean more than normal friends.” Of course, Crystal knew that the old man was teasing her.


    “I really don’t understand the rtionship of young people nowadays.” The old man shook his head, “It’s obvious that you two see each other as important people, but you two are just friends. I really don’t get it.”


    Not long after that, Xiao Tian poured water into the bathtub again. Even though he still had not eaten anything for two days, he still had the stamina to do his task.


    ‘This is thest.’


    He just needed to fill the tub one more time, and the bathtub would be full of waterter.


    ‘Good! With this, I can help Crystalter.’


    Xiao Tian closed the fence before carrying the buckets again.


    However, something unexpected happened after he walked twenty meters from the well.


    Two wolves suddenly appeared in front of them!


    Xiao Tian immediately put down the buckets and took out his special sword.


    They were still in the forest, so he was not surprised when two wolves suddenly appeared in front of him.


    He was not afraid of the wolves because he was sure that he could kill themter.


    *Grrr…


    These two wolves walked closer towards Xiao Tian while showing its fangs.


    Its intention was clear.


    These two wolves wanted to attack Xiao Tian at the same time!


    Xiao Tian had fought wolves a few times, so he still behaved calmly.


    The wolves walked towards Xiao Tian. One of them was in front of him while the other was behind him.


    These two wolves immediately jumped at him, ready to bite Xiao Tian.


    *sh…


    Xiao Tian instantly moved to the right side before finally attacking the wolves.


    One of the wolves managed to avoid his attack while the other got hit by his attack. However, none of them died.


    *Drip…


    Blood dripped from the body of the wolf that was hit by Xiao Tian’s attack.


    Previously, Xiao Tian managed to attack one of them. Sure, that wolf was still alive, but the wolf was injured heavily.


    *Auuu…


    The injured wolf called its friends.


    These two wolves knew that Xiao Tian was not an ordinary person because he could injure one of them easily.


    Of course, Xiao Tian knew the meaning of it.


    ‘I have to kill them quickly.’


    Xiao Tian was not in top condition as he was still starving.


    Sure, he believed he could kill these two wolves, but it would be dangerous if many wolves suddenly appeared and attacked him.


    At the same time, Crystal and the old man were talking about many things.


    “What is that young man doing? What took him so long?” the old man wanted to know why Xiao Tian was still in the well.


    He knew that Xiao Tian only needed to fill his bathtub one more time because he had checked his bathtub earlier.


    Previously, Xiao Tian kept saying that he wanted to help Crystal chop firewood, so the old man thought Xiao Tian would try to finish his task as quickly as possible.


    “Maybe he is resting right now.” Crystal thought Xiao Tian was resting.


    *Auuuu….


    The old man and Crystal instantly turned their heads after hearing the wolf’s howl.


    ‘A wolf’s howl?’


    The old man and Crystal were startled when they heard the sound of a wolf’s howl.


    ‘Don’t tell me.’


    They suddenly thought that Xiao Tian was fighting a wolf.


    The old man instantly rose to his feet before running towards the well. “Youngdy, wait here. I will check it.”


    “Please help Xiao Tian, elder.” Crystal was suddenly worried about Xiao Tian’s safety because she knew he was starving.


    Any martial artist would not be able to fight normally if they were hungry. That was why Crystal asked the old man to help Xiao Tian.


    Because they heard the wolf’s howl just now, there was only one meaning.


    The wolf was calling its friends!


    Wolves were animals who hunt in a group.


    Each pack was usually made up of an adult male, female wolf, and their offspring of various ages.


    “Don’t worry. I will help him.” The old man replied as he rushed towards the well.


    ‘I did not expect there would be a wolf in my backyard.’


    The old man had killed many beasts around his house, so he thought all the animals knew that it was his territory.


    ‘I hope I’m notte.’


    The old man instantly stopped his footsteps when he saw something shocking in front of him.


    Ten wolves died around Xiao Tian!


    There was only one wolf that was still standing in front of him, but that wolf was heavily injured.


    “Huft…Huft…Huft…” Xiao Tian breathed heavily.


    Previously, Xiao Tian used the third secret technique to kill these ten wolves. Of course, he knew it was a big gamble.


    However, he could not help but do that. There were a few reasons for this.


    First, he was hungry, so he had to finish the fight as quickly as possible. Nine wolves suddenly appeared after he killed two wolves.


    And second, Xiao Tian was afraid that more wolves woulde if he did not finish the fight quickly. For this reason, Xiao Tian decided to take a big gamble.


    Of course, he knew that he would lose a lot of stamina after using his secret move, but it was the only way to survive.


    He could not ask Crystal or the old man for help because the distance between them was quite far.


    It was either survive or die!


    “Huft…Huft…Huft…” as Xiao Tian was breathing heavily, his eyes were focused on thest wolf.


    Like Xiao Tian, the wolf also focused on Xiao Tian. It was as if they weremunicating through their eyes.


    One move!


    The wolf and Xiao Tian knew that they were in bad condition, so they decided to end the fight in one move.


    The old man decided not to help Xiao Tian immediately and looked at them from far.


    ‘I did not expect that he would manage to kill ten wolves in that state.’


    Of course, he would help Xiao Tian if Xiao Tian’s life was in danger.


    At this moment, Xiao Tian still did not know that the old man was standing not far from him because his back was facing the old man.


    *Grrr…


    The wolf showed its fang again, giving a sign that it was ready to attack Xiao Tian.


    Like the wolf, Xiao Tian was ready to attack the wolf too.


    And as if the wolf and Xiao Tian couldmunicate through their eyes, they attacked each other at the same time.
