It was the third month of spring, and the scenery was just right.
A young man wearing a self-woven straw hat was lying leisurely on a large bluestone in the forest. The sun shone through the layers of leaves on the young man's body, warm and comfortable, helping him to have a good dream.
Suddenly, a burst of noise came from not far away, and it woke up the young man who was taking an afternoon nap. He stood up from the large green rock and looked in the direction of the noise, and he muttered to himself in a low voice, "Where did this idiot come from? He came to this Cloud Dragon Mountain and wandered around blindly."
As he spoke, the young man had already jumped down from the bluestone. He quickly ran in the direction of the noise. In a short while, he arrived at the scene of the noise.
In an open space, five young men and women in combat uniforms were surrounded by a pack of green wolves. Both sides were in a tense standoff. The three young men carefully protected the two young women behind them, as if they were afraid that they would be hurt in the slightest.
"What should we do?
There are so many green wolves. We are no match for them! "
The slightly fat young man was already covered in cold sweat. If he had known that the Cloud Dragon Mountain was so dangerous, he would not have come no matter what.
"Kill our way out!"
Another thin young man gritted his teeth and said, "We have no way out now. We have to kill our way out. Otherwise, we can only die here!"
"I don't want to die."
A delicate girl who was protected in the middle turned pale and said in a low voice, "I won't be naughty anymore. I want to go home!"
Hearing the girl's sobbing voice, the others' faces also became a little ugly. If they could go home, who wouldn't want to go home?
What was the use of crying now? Finding a way to kill their way out was the most important thing!
"Wait, look over there. There seems to be a person there!"
Suddenly, another girl cried out in a low voice. She pointed at the big tree beside her and said loudly, "Hey, save us!"
Following the girl's cry, the green wolves, who had been unable to hold back for a long time, no longer hesitated. They roared and charged toward the young men and women who had nowhere to run. The straw hat young man hiding in the forest looked at the girl who had cried out in alarm and shook his head speechlessly.
"What a bunch of lunatics. Why did they come to this mountain forest for no reason?"
Mumbling to himself, the youth in the straw hat suddenly jumped down from the tree. With a leap, he arrived at the back of the pack of green wolves. The blade in his hand fell, and in the blink of an eye, he finished off a green wolf!
The leader of the Green Wolves, who was in the middle of commanding the group of ignorant youths, sensed the change behind him and immediately howled. The original group instantly split into two. One group continued to surround the prey that was about to fall into their hands, while the other went to deal with the trouble behind them.
However, something unexpected happened. The dozen or so Green Wolves it sent to deal with the trouble behind it were all killed by the youth in the straw hat in a short period of time!
Looking at their fellow tribesmen lying in a pool of blood and wailing in pain, the leader of the green wolves couldn't help but reveal a human-like rage. If it wasn't for this straw hat youth suddenly jumping out and disrupting the situation, they would definitely be able to completely slaughter this group of foolish humans!
Awoo!
The leader of the Green Wolves suddenly raised his head and howled. Soon, the remaining Green Wolves slowly retreated, gradually disappearing into the forest without a trace.
The fat youth covered in wounds saw the Green Wolves retreat, and his eyes suddenly shone with an unprecedented bright light. He shouted excitedly, "We won, we defeated those …"
The fat youth was cheering, but suddenly realized that his companions were all silent. His cheers also stopped abruptly.
"Even with the five of us working together, we only managed to kill two Green Wolves."
The skinny youth looked at the straw hat youth standing not far away with a burning gaze. He said to his companion in a low voice, "But he alone killed twelve green wolves in the same amount of time!
A total of 12! "
"Could he be a Qi Refining Stage cultivator?"
The tall and strong youth looked curiously at the straw hat youth and said to his companions, "Let's go and say hello to him."
"That … Hello."
The tall youth smiled at the straw hat youth and said, "My name is Gao Zhenyu. We are all third year high school students from Xiyang City's Elite Academy. What about you?"
The youth in the straw hat glanced at Gao Zhenyu indifferently before turning his gaze to the young girl who had pointed at him and cried out in alarm. His tone was indifferent as he said, "If it wasn't for my skills, when she pointed at me just now, I might have died under the siege of these green wolves."
Hearing the straw hat youth's words, the group of students from Xiyang City suddenly had an awkward expression on their faces. Because the straw hat youth was right, the girl's exclamation had indeed exposed the straw hat youth's tracks. If the straw hat youth was just a normal person, then the girl's actions were equivalent to indirectly murdering the straw hat youth.
"Hey, what do you mean!"
The girl who was criticized by the straw hat youth couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Don't think that just because you saved me, you can casually criticize me!"
"Manni, don't say anymore!"
Gao Zhenyu frowned and looked unhappily at Li Manni. Then, he smiled at the straw hat youth and said, "Manni has little experience and doesn't know any better. I apologize to you on her behalf. I'm really sorry."
"Why should I lower my head to him!"
Li Manni muttered unhappily, "Anyway, the Green Wolves have retreated, and there's no danger."
Hearing Li Manni's muttering, everyone frowned. Li Manni's actions were really a little disdainful.
"You think there's no danger?"
The straw hat youth suddenly smiled strangely, "If you continue to stay here, I dare to guarantee that in less than three minutes, there will be ferocious beasts that will kill all of you!"
As he spoke, the straw hat youth had already turned and walked back the way he came. He hadn't slept enough and was preparing to go back and sleep again.
When everyone heard the straw hat youth's reminder, their expressions couldn't help but change greatly. More than a dozen green wolves had just died here, and the smell of blood was very strong. In this dangerous Cloud Dragon Mountain, they might really attract some extraordinary fierce beasts!
"What should we do?"
Li Manni, who was still arrogant a moment ago, suddenly panicked and looked at her companions with an uneasy expression.
Gao Zhenyu frowned slightly and said to everyone, "Let's go, we'll follow them. We're not familiar with anything here, so it's better to follow the straw hat youth."
Speaking until here, Gao Zhenyu turned his head and glared fiercely at Li Manni, saying, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame us for abandoning you!"
Being warned by Gao Zhenyu in such a strict manner, Li Manni's eyes immediately turned red with grievance. Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she didn't dare to act out. She was afraid that she would really be abandoned in the wilderness. At that time, it would be too late for her to regret.
