Chapter 126 The Attack of the Wildcat and the Gray Wolf
However, the cats and wolves were coming on strong, and now was not the time to be distracted by studying the whip. He could easily be bitten or scratched if he wasn't careful. He pulled his thoughts back to dealing with the wild cats and gray wolves in front of him.
After seeing the wildcats surging in to reinforce them, the wolf pack's morale noticeably increased, and their attack became much more ferocious.
The air was instantly filled with a strong odor; the wolves and wildcats exuded a pungent, fishy smell, which mingled with the bloody stench of the scene and spread across the foot of the mountain.
For a moment, the sharp, piercing meows of cats, along with the howls of wolves, echoed through the mountain stream, sending chills down one's spine.
The pack of wildcats and gray wolves moved swiftly, rushing in from all directions to attack the group.
At the same time, some of the gray wolves and wildcats changed their target and pounced on Su Jue on the other side.
Their circular formation, where they stood close together, was indeed very effective in defense. At least they didn't have to worry about being attacked from behind, and could focus on killing the wild cats and wolves that were charging at them from the front.
A stray cat leaped to the foot of Qingzhou. He swiftly cleaved the stray cat in half at the waist, then kicked the cat's corpse away.
He glanced at the hem of his clothes, which had been torn into strips by the cat's claws.
"That was close... I almost got scratched." Qingzhou secretly rejoiced: "These wild cats are even more stinky than those wolves."
"Be careful," Qingyang reminded him from the side.
Qing Tong nervously glanced in Xiao Han's direction and saw a large group of wild cats gathered around him, launching a fierce attack on him. Seeing this, he was very worried.
He said to the people around him, "I'm going to help the prince. I can't let him be in danger alone."
“You can’t go.” Long Chuqing said seriously, “If you leave here, you’ll be torn to pieces by a pack of wild cats.”
"Our duty is to protect the Prince. How can I just watch him fight alone over there?" Qing Tong said with a solemn expression and a firm tone.
“Qing Tong, I’ll go with you,” Qing Ying said from the side.
At the same time, Qingyang and Qingzhou said in unison, "Let's go together."
Seeing this, Long Chuqing sighed inwardly: "I'm really fed up with you guys. Fine, I'll go instead! You guys stay here and continue to maintain this defensive formation. Don't let your guard down and don't get hurt."
"Miss Long..." The four exclaimed in surprise as they watched Long Chuqing leap away. They thought to themselves, "You'd better be careful, don't get hurt, or we won't be able to explain to the Prince."
Long Chuqing flashed forward, lightly tiptoed up, and swung his sword fiercely at the swarm of wild cats rushing towards him.
In an instant, the sword energy whipped up a gust of wind and attacked the pack of wild cats. The wild cats in front were instantly killed by the sword energy. With screams, they were all thrown into the air, blood spurting out. Then, countless limbs and severed bodies fell to the ground.
A road briefly appeared ahead, and soon the wild cats behind fearlessly rushed forward to fill the gap.
These wild cats pounced on us like madmen, and there were more of them than we had expected, as they kept coming down from the mountain.
Long Chuqing's eyes suddenly sharpened as she swept away the gray wolves and wild cats around her, moving closer to Xiao Han to help him eliminate the wild cats that were attacking him.
“Qingqing…” Feifeng said, “That cat demon is hiding not far from the mountain.”
"That cunning cat demon, she won't come out herself but controls these wild cats to their deaths, she's despicable." Long Chuqing said angrily, "Let's deal with the wild cats in front of us first before we go after her."
Wild cats are very agile, and because they are small and numerous, it is easy to get scratched by them.
We can no longer deal with this using conventional methods, otherwise everyone will be in danger if this continues.
Long Chuqing pondered to herself, never expecting these wild cats and gray wolves to be so troublesome.
She scratched her finger with her nail to avoid the sight of Xiao Han and Qing Ying, drew a talisman in front of her, and then, with Fei Feng's help, threw the talisman to the ground.
An invisible talisman spread outwards upon contact with the ground, and wherever it touched, the gray wolf and wildcat immediately stopped their attack.
They froze on the spot, their faces showing fear, their eyes darting around, and they kept making low whimpering sounds as they warily observed their surroundings.
"What's going on?" Qingyang asked, looking at the wolf pack and wildcats that had suddenly stopped attacking. "Why did they suddenly stop attacking?"
"This..., are they holding back some kind of big move, and then suddenly attack us?" Qingzhou frowned, equally puzzled, his sword still held in front of him, in case they suddenly attacked.
"Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Bronze carefully observed and noticed that the wild cat and gray wolf in front of him were unusual: "They look very wary, and seem a little scared."
"Could it be that they're scared of us?" Qingying guessed. "Could it be that they saw so many of their companions die and got scared, and now they want to back down?"
Bronze replied with a serious expression, "Your guess is completely unfounded." After saying that, he continued to keep an eye on the situation ahead.
The wildcats and gray wolves did not launch an attack, and Bronze and his companions simply stood still and observed, maintaining a fighting stance at all times, not daring to be careless, for fear of a sudden attack.
"Get lost..." Long Chuqing murmured, her icy voice clearly reaching the ears of the wildcat and the gray wolf through the talisman.
The wildcats and wolves, whose eyes had been wandering around, became alert upon hearing the sound and looked in the direction from which it came.
Long Chuqing stood there silently, her eyes coldly fixed on the wildcat and gray wolf in front of her.
When their eyes met Long Chuqing's sharp gaze, a wave of fear washed over them instantly, and the fur on their bodies bristled.
It was as if they had encountered a terrifying enemy, triggering their body's defense mechanisms, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The wildcat and the gray wolf could clearly feel a stronger force suppressing them. Under this invisible pressure, their steps became hesitant, their eyes warily fixed on the front, and they unconsciously retreated slowly.
"Get out of here!" Seeing the wildcat and the gray wolf still hesitating, Long Chuqing shouted again.
The voice reached their ears again, and a cold sentence echoed in their minds.
Upon hearing the sound, both the wildcats and the gray wolves were startled and immediately turned away, tails between their legs, and fled into the forest.
