Braised Dragon with Soy Sauce

Chapter 143: We are both fallen people at the end of the world

As a cultivator who rarely experiences life-or-death battles, I am the weakest in combat among cultivators of the same level.

The same situation applies to the old men who came out of the canyon with him.

They appear powerful, but they can only fight those with slightly lower cultivation levels. If they were to fight someone of the same level who has extensive combat experience, they would surely be defeated.

It seems they need to strengthen their skills training.

Before the battle, Mo Yuming drank a drop of "Water Soul," which helped him quickly recover his spiritual power thanks to the powerful and continuous restorative function of "Water Soul."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.

During his rest, the remaining essence of the Water Spirit in his body quickly restored his spiritual power.

Three hours had passed, and it was now the darkest time before dawn. Mo Yuming was resting with his eyes closed when he suddenly heard some faint sounds coming from the grass ahead. Although faint, they were still very noticeable in the silent wilderness.

Mo Yuming immediately sprang up and slashed his sword towards the source of the sound. With a "bang," a blood wolf struggling for its life was revealed from the severed thatch.

Upon hearing the sound of swords slashing, the four Falcon Guards who were resting quickly stood up and returned to their assigned areas.

"Ow!"

In the distance, the wolf king signaled war, and suddenly many blood wolves emerged from the bushes, rushing towards Mo Yuming and his companions.

This was the strongest attack yet, and countless blood wolves rushed up the hillside like madmen.

Mo Yuming was responsible for the area within a thirty-zhang radius in front of him. In the previous attacks by the blood wolves, Mo Yuming was able to handle the situation with ease and did not feel much pressure. However, this time the number of blood wolves charging forward suddenly increased by more than double. Mo Yuming felt the pressure increase dramatically as he fought back and forth, and he had no choice but to slowly retreat in the frantic battle, one step, two steps, three steps...

Mo Yuming was forced back several steps every time he fought back and forth.

Mo Yuming knew that the other four were not much better off.

Just as the five were exhausted and forced to retreat by the pack of blood wolves, a group of men in black ran out of the woods in the distance and quickly joined the blood wolf hunting team.

Moments later, the Blood Wolves' final attack failed. Only a few Blood Wolves and their alpha wolf fled in haste.

The person leading the team to provide assistance was none other than Sun Min, who had been sent back by Mo Yuming yesterday to investigate the situation.

He told Mo Yuming that the inspector had told them everything.

His bronze mirror was called the "Sky-Gazing Mirror," which could view images within a range of fifty feet, and could show events from as far back as thirty days ago, or as short as a quarter of an hour.

If the person being investigated does not stay in the place being investigated for more than 15 minutes, the "Sky-Gazing Mirror" will not be able to detect them.

In addition, the Feather Emperor Palace also has a tracking spirit beast. This spirit beast can sense the aura left by the person being tracked within a 15-zhang radius and follow that aura.

However, it cannot exceed fifteen days, because after fifteen days, the traces left by the person being tracked will have basically dissipated and there will be no way to find them.

His tracking beast remained in Zhongyuan City, thus preventing him from tracking the beast.

However, he himself was seriously injured and unable to move, so the matter of tracking down the Sin Clan could only be discussed after he recovered.

Mo Yuming was finally relieved after hearing this. With this information, Park Ya-chu and the others would no longer have to suffer through the hardships of traveling in the deep mountains and forests.

They no longer need to expend so much effort to help them from afar.

Mo Yuming immediately ordered Sun Min to select fifteen skilled Falcon Guards to wait at the front, while the others dispersed and hid around the area, primarily to watch for hunters or martial artists who inadvertently approached the area. If anyone did, they were to be lured away immediately.

Pu Yazhu, who was inside the stone house, had long been awakened by the howling of the blood wolves outside, and also heard that someone was fighting with the blood wolves outside.

However, with her strength at the ninth level of the Human Realm, she couldn't even defeat a second-level Blood Wolf; going out would simply be suicide.

So they had no choice but to muster their courage and stand guard behind the wooden door with their weapons to prevent any blood wolves from breaking in.

Finally, dawn broke, and the howling of wolves had long since ceased outside; everything seemed to have come to a standstill.

Park Ya-joo remained hidden inside the stone house, too afraid to come out. Just then, a familiar voice came from outside:

"Miss Yazhu, come out. The Blood Wolf has been driven away by us. You should continue forward, and we'll meet up with you in the woods ahead!"

Park Ah-joo recognized the voice as that of the boy who had given them food the day before yesterday.

She finally realized that he had been secretly protecting them all along, and she was deeply moved by Mo Yuming's kindness.

So he immediately woke up the children who were still fast asleep and led them out of the dark stone house, facing the rising sun.

The golden sunlight shone on them, and all the children felt incredibly comfortable, so they couldn't help but jump up.

Looking at the joyful children, Park Ah-joo smiled with relief. She knew they were finally rescued. Although she hadn't seen a single person after leaving the stone house, she knew they were protecting them nearby.

Park Ya-joo didn't linger for long. After a short rest, she led the children toward the path ahead.

As they entered the woods, they saw Mo Yuming waiting for her not far away. Seeing them approach, he waved to them from a distance and said:

"Miss Yazhu, bring the children over quickly and tell them not to be afraid. Some uncles will carry them. We already know how to evade the pursuit of the Feather Palace."

"You just need to cooperate. We'll discuss the specifics on the way, okay?"

As Park Ya-joo walked, she said:

"Thank you so much, young master! You risked so much to save us, I truly don't know how to repay you!"

Mo Yuming said with a smile:

"We're all in the same boat, why be so polite? You're all innocent, and anyone with a shred of conscience would do the same. Saving you is saving our own conscience."

In the end, good will prevail over evil in this world, and those wicked people who oppress the people will eventually be driven out.

When Park Ya-joo approached Mo Yu-ming and was about to bow in gratitude, Mo Yu-ming quickly stopped her, saying:

"Don't do that, tell the children to keep going, don't stop, there are people waiting for them ahead."

Mo Yuming and Pu Yazhu walked behind the children. After walking for a while, Mo Yuming said to the child in front:

"Little brothers and sisters, in a little while, men in black will come out and take you away. Don't be afraid! They are all good people. They wear black so that bad guys won't recognize them. This will reduce a lot of trouble."

"We understand! Thank you, brother!"

The children answered in unison.
