The glow gradually faded from the blade.
Xia Lun flicked the longsword in his hand, instantly shaking off the blood on the blade and leaving a glaring red streak on the snow.
He had surrounded the wolf pack before him.
At this moment, Xia Lun was encircled by the wolves, layer upon layer. Each snow wolf glared with eyes as large as brass bells, baring their fangs and growling lowly, yet none dared to take another step forward.
The formidable strength Xia Lun had just displayed clearly made these beasts wary.
Xia Lun's sharp gaze swept his surroundings, but he did not spot any outstanding individuals.
The Wolf King was not here.
Arooo!
A loud, clear wolf howl echoed from the rear.
The wolf pack suddenly grew invigorated, lunging at Xia Lun one after another.
Monsters were indeed just monsters.
That howl from the Wolf King had also exposed its position.
The individual combat power of a snow wolf wasn't strong; an ordinary mid-tier warrior could easily handle them. What made them truly troublesome was a wolf pack led by a Wolf King. They possessed an incredibly strong sense of teamwork and could exhaust even a high-tier warrior to death.
But Xia Lun was clearly no mere high-tier warrior.
Taking a deep breath, the air formed a vortex as it rushed into Xia Lun's nose.
The next moment, Xia Lun's figure vanished from where he stood.
Buzz.
Accompanied by a long, piercing chime of the sword, the surrounding wolves were sliced into neat pieces. Foul-smelling flesh and boiling blood splattered all over the ground, melting the snow and emitting thick white steam.
Xia Lun shuttled through the gale. In an instant, he followed the earlier howl and found its source.
The Snow Wolf King!
That creature was two or three times larger than a normal snow wolf. Even while crouching, it was nearly two meters tall and four to five meters long.
Thick fur, a massive body, claws like black iron... In the snowfields, such a monster could indeed be invincible.
From the beast's cold eyes, Xia Lun caught a trace of disbelief and panic.
Not only was it strong, but this guy also had high intelligence.
With this creature leading them, it was no wonder the wolf pack could stir up such a huge storm on the snowfields.
Roar!
The Snow Wolf King let out a roar at Xia Lun, spewing a wave of extreme frost toward him, obscuring his line of sight.
A sweep of sword wind effortlessly cleared away the frost.
As his vision returned, the Snow Wolf King had already turned and fled, possessing absolutely no intention of fighting Xia Lun.
A group of snow wolves blocked Xia Lun's path, buying the Snow Wolf King a chance to escape.
Just as that snow spirit had said before, this guy was indeed very cunning.
But naturally, Xia Lun wouldn't let the Snow Wolf King off so easily; after all, it was his mission objective.
Aina!
Following Xia Lun's call, a terrifying chill swept over from behind him. Xia Lun neither dodged nor hid. The biting frost brushed past him, instantly freezing the entire wolf pack before him while extending a convenient icy ramp sloping upward.
Xia Lun charged straight up the ramp without hesitation.
Although the path was made of ice, Aina had condensed its surface to be very rough, so stepping on it wouldn't cause him to slip. Xia Lun's speed did not decrease in the slightest.
Rushing past the ramp, Xia Lun leaped high into the air, raised the longsword in his hand, and descended from the sky.
Shing.
The blade tore through the air, emitting a long chime.
With a muffled thud, the massive wolf head fell to the ground. Boiling blood sprayed out as if it were free, and a thick stench of blood shrouded the area.
Xia Lun sheathed his longsword expressionlessly.
With the Wolf King dead, the surrounding wolf pack began to flee in all directions. In just a moment, they had all run completely away.
Oh! We won!
Seeing Xia Lun sever the wolf's head, Liyana ran over excitedly. Although she hadn't played any role, she still shared in the joy of victory.
A destined outcome.
Xia Lun was a man who could slay even dragons; how could he possibly let a mere Snow Wolf King escape?
Moke expertly began butchering the wolf carcass, Musen helped from the side, and Liyana just caused trouble nearby.
Oho! This wolf pelt is incredible. It can fetch a very good price. The dagger flipped nimbly in Moke's hand.
That's right! Liyana chimed in, her hands constantly groping the wolf pelt. Even though she had no idea what she was feeling for, she tried to make herself look very busy.
Good work, Xia Lun said, raising his hand to pat Aina's shoulder. Aina merely nodded slightly.
A strand of silver hair fell upon her shoulder, and Xia Lun thoughtfully helped smooth it out.
Compelled by some inexplicable urge, Xia Lun's hand reached toward Aina's cheek beneath her hood.
Slap.
Xia Lun's hand was instantly slapped away, meeting Aina's somewhat icy gaze.
Sorry, sorry. Xia Lun smiled sheepishly, rubbing the hand Aina had slapped. You're just too beautiful, I couldn't hold back.
Aina remained silent, her thoughts unknown.
Is she still resistant to having her cheek touched?
Good, he had found a new zone to conquer.
He just didn't know when he would finally be able to...
Earlier in the carriage, a small accident had occurred, and that soul-stirring sensation still lingered in his heart, refusing to dissipate...
No, Xia Lun, you are an honorable gentleman. You cannot think of such dirty and filthy things.
But how could frankly facing one's own desires be considered dirty and filthy?
Besides, they had already been together for two years. As a normal boyfriend and girlfriend, not even having touched that much was actually a bit unreasonable.
Xia Lun was also quite traditional. He didn't force certain things and could wait until after marriage... but he still wanted to experience intimate interactions between partners with Aina.
Aina.
What is it? Aina looked up at Xia Lun.
Xia Lun leaned close to Aina's ear. I want to touch...
Thump.
Ugh.
The tip of Aina's staff jabbed viciously into Xia Lun's abdomen. Xia Lun hunched over with a cry of pain.
Pervert! Aina scolded him without holding back.
To think the Hero was actually this kind of guy! He actually wanted to...
And he said it so openly to her! How was she supposed to answer that?
Vulgar, shameless, utterly brazen.
If she agreed, wouldn't she become a shameless woman in Xia Lun's eyes?
No, that didn't seem to be the main point.
Aina frowned.
If she was thinking like this, didn't it mean she wasn't actually repulsed by the act in her heart, but just wanted to maintain some modesty?
Aina looked up at Xia Lun again.
She understood.
This guy Xia Lun was indeed quite handsome, so strictly from a physiological perspective, she couldn't bring herself to dislike him.
After all, she was a woman too, and it was perfectly normal to have desires.
Hehe, if the Hero was defeated by her in the future, sparing his life and keeping him as her male pet wouldn't be impossible...
Thoroughly stripping him of his dignity and reducing him to her plaything, that would be the ultimate insult to the Hero.
Aina thought silently to herself, her cheeks feeling a little hot.
