Three days later.

Xu Yang left the Purple Fire Celestial Prison Forbidden Land and sped toward Liangzhou.

"Tsk, kid, aren't you planning to take in those two little girls?"

Gu Jun's teasing voice came from within the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant.

Xu Yang showed a wry smile, "Teacher, this kind of thing..."

"Do you think those two girls would ever favor anyone else?"

"You're a man—when you need to be decisive, be decisive. Don't be such a wimp!"

Hearing Gu Jun's words, Xu Yang sighed inwardly and couldn't help glancing back. Maybe his teacher was right.

"Let's wait until all this is over."

Xu Yang laughed freely.

From the Central State to Liangzhou, at his speed, it would take about two or three days.

Along the way, Xu Yang didn't stop at all. In just two days, he had already entered the territory of Liangzhou.

Compared to the vast plains of the Central State, Liangzhou was mountainous.

As he approached Liangzhou Prefecture City, thoughts of the Liang King surfaced in Xu Yang's mind.

No matter what, for now, he was at least the 'Crown Prince'. Since this Liang King was trusted by Can Sutian, there shouldn't be any surprises.

"Eh? What terrifying Evil Qi."

Xu Yang suddenly looked toward the far northern mountain range, shock flickering in his eyes.

Even from such a distance, he could sense a vast, towering murderous aura!

This kind of vicious Qi—definitely a demon beast!

"Feels like there's a huge amount of demon beast aura mixed in as well."

Xu Yang raised an eyebrow and pondered for a moment, then with a blur, he shot toward the mountain range.

This place was at most less than half an hour from the prefecture city; a short delay wouldn't hurt!

If something major happened, he wouldn't get involved unless absolutely necessary.

Soon, he neared the mountain range.

Low, savage, howling roars echoed out.

The Evil Qi above the mountain range was like clouds, billowing in waves.

The sight was enough to chill the soul!

Even Xu Yang was utterly shocked.

This mass of Evil Qi alone would make any Martial Artist in the Myriad Phenomena Realm's heart tremble.

On the other side, several streaks of rainbow light shot over, likely Martial Artists who had sensed something unusual and come to investigate.

Xu Yang glanced over and quickly hid himself.

Rooaaar~~

The howling suddenly intensified, and the evil clouds in the air were whipped into a frenzy like a hurricane, churning madly.

"What's going on?"

"Hiss—what terrifying Evil Qi! There must be at least a hundred powerful demon beasts inside!"

"Wait, isn't this Overlord Wolf Army territory?"

"Could it be the Overlord Wolves?"

A few young Martial Artists had extraordinary bearing, wore fancy clothes, and were clearly no weaklings. All of them were now staring into the mountains in shock.

"Could it really be the Overlord Wolves?"

"I remember the Overlord Wolf Army keeps a lot of Overlord Wolves here."

A girl about twenty years old spoke up.

"Very possible!"

"Should we go check it out?"

"Let's not!"

The white-robed youth standing in the center shook his head slightly and said, "Even if something unexpected is happening, the Overlord Wolf Army is strong enough to handle it. If we barge in and witness something we shouldn't, we'll be in trouble!"

Hearing this, the other young people's expressions went serious and they all nodded.

Xu Yang was listening in the shadows, clear as day, and felt surprised!

Overlord Wolf Army?

Yie Vajra seemed to be from the Overlord Wolf Army!

This was the Liangzhou Army, directly under the Liang King!

Their Martial Artists were all elites, with the weakest at the Yang Realm!

And everyone's mount was a Golden-Scaled Dominator Wolf, both swift and powerful in battle!

While Xu Yang was observing, the whole mountain range suddenly trembled.

Immediately following, Evil Qi surged madly, and a shocking blast wave erupted from the heart of the mountains, smashing through rocks and ancient trees, sweeping in all directions.

The earth was quaking violently as though thousands of horses thundered by.

Xu Yang's expression changed—he thought, 'This is bad!'

This was definitely an accident!

"Damn it!"

"Stop those beasts—don't let them escape!"

"Wei Jia, Peng Yu, Zhao Changhe, come block the Wolf King with me!"

"Li Shaolong, hurry to the city and notify the General!"

A voice, furious and frantic, echoed out from within the mountains.

Next moment, Xu Yang and the young Martial Artists saw countless Golden-Scaled Dominator Wolves surging out.

These wolves, with shining gold scales, were massive and fierce-looking—truly terrifying.

Their eyes were blood-red and filled with savagery—they'd all gone mad!

And the most eye-catching of all was the leader—a giant wolf as huge as a mountain.

It let out a savage roar that was deafening!

Its golden scales shimmered with golden spirit patterns, radiating a terrifying aura that sent shivers through heaven and earth.

"The Wolf King!"

"Hiss—Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection Wolf King!"

"Damn, what is the Overlord Wolf Army doing? Wolf King and the wolves have all gone berserk."

The young Martial Artists turned pale and backed away in panic without hesitation.

The Wolf King alone was already Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection.

Behind it was a herd of several hundred, with dozens at the Myriad Phenomena Realm level!

The sight made everyone's scalp tingle!

Swish swish swish!!

Several armored Martial Artists burst forth.

"It's the Overlord Wolf Army!"

"Thank goodness, thank goodness."

"They should be able to stop them!"

Seeing this scene, the young Martial Artists instantly breathed sighs of relief.

One of them ran toward the city.

The remaining thirty or so split into two groups.

One group rushed to stop the Overlord Wolves; the other, four people, charged straight at the Wolf King.

Clearly, these four had been summoned by that earlier voice!

Xu Yang frowned as he watched.

"Even though one of them is Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection, it's still far from enough to be the Wolf King's match. Even with three more at Late Stage of Myriad Phenomena, they haven't got a chance!"

As for the rest of the beast herd, twenty people wouldn't be enough to stop them!

Boom!

The battle erupted in an instant.

The Wolf King went berserk, and in the blink of an eye, two people screamed as they were sent flying.

"It's over."

When the young girl saw this, her pretty face went white as a sheet.

"Are we... going to help?" a young man swallowed hard, voice trembling.

"Help my ass!"

The white-robed youth's face twisted as he said decisively, "Quick, go back to the city and notify the Royal Palace!"

The five of them, though from extraordinary backgrounds and quite famous in Liangzhou, were led by him—and his highest cultivation was only the Middle Stage of Myriad Phenomena Realm.

The other four—three at Early Stage of Myriad Phenomena, one at Yang Realm Perfection!

What, are we trying to get ourselves killed?

The young man who'd suggested it looked embarrassed.

"What are you waiting for? Move!" the white-robed youth barked.

They turned and ran without delay.

"Hey, wait a second, look over there!"

"Is that guy crazy?"

Someone yelled in shock.

They instinctively turned back—and their pupils contracted sharply.

They saw a figure appear from who knows where, flashing straight toward the Wolf King like lightning.

At that moment, only the Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection contender was barely holding the Wolf King at bay, already battered and nearly defenseless.

In just ten breaths or so, more than half the Overlord Wolf Army had been injured and forced back.

Facing a pack of berserk wolves, there was no way to fight back.

The fallen Martial Artists could only watch as the herd roared and rampaged behind the Wolf King.

The Wolf King was ferocious, the pack dreadful!

The strongest of the Overlord Wolf Army went pale at the sight, retreating again and again in horror.

"A mere Middle Stage of Myriad Phenomena dares jump in? Where did this idiot come from?" the young girl blurted out instinctively.
