562: Chapter 562 The Old Monster of the Azure Wolf!
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Just as the three were deep in thought, three green arrows streaked through the air!
The arrows were incredibly fast, whistling sharply as they shot toward the trio!
Atop the arrows were the phantom images of three grey wolves.
The phantoms were lifelike, with hideous wolf heads and sharp claws, radiating a piercing killing intent!
Wherever the arrows passed, space distorted and the very air was torn apart!
"Enemy attack! Defend!"
Fan Hu reacted extremely quickly, roaring out the instant those three arrows broke through the air!
Golden light suddenly erupted around him as his True Qi surged frantically, condensing into a golden shield before him—on the shield, a golden tiger's head emerged with eyes wide and maw agape, exuding a sharp and powerful aura!
Clang!
The golden shield collided with the wolf phantom arrows, producing a deafening explosion!
Sparks flew in all directions as shockwaves spread wildly outward!
The golden tiger head trembled violently under the impact of the arrows, and fine cracks appeared on the shield.
Immediately after, the golden shield was shattered, dissipating into flecks of golden light.
Although the green arrow had been weakened considerably, it remained unstoppable and continued forward!
Puchi—
A spray of blood erupted as the arrow struck Fan Hu's shoulder, piercing through it instantly!
Fan Hu let out a muffled groan and his body shuddered, but he managed to steady himself.
The injury was not light, but fortunately, it wasn't a major problem.
However, the other two escorts were not so lucky.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Accompanied by two shrill screams, the defenses of those two escorts were easily pierced by the arrows!
Their spirit weapons were knocked away and their protective True Qi was torn apart; they fell rapidly from the high sky like kites with broken strings!
Bang! Bang!
With two dull thuds, their bodies slammed heavily onto the plains below, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The group quickly descended from the air to the side of the two escorts.
Zhao Tieshan and Zhou Yuanqing's faces were deathly pale, their foreheads drenched in cold sweat.
Two green arrows were lodged in their abdomens. At the wounds, bursts of green True Qi were running rampant, and the Wolf Arrow Intent was further causing the wounds to spread.
The arrow intent was like a living thing, eroding and spreading within the wounds, making them larger and causing more blood to flow.
If this continued, both of them would likely be in mortal danger.
Seeing this, Fan Hu ignored the wound on his own shoulder. His True Qi surged, and a layer of golden True Qi covered their wounds, attempting to suppress that Wolf Arrow Intent.
But the moment the golden True Qi collided with the green arrow intent, it was easily defeated; it was simply of no use!
"This is trouble!"
To be able to easily pierce his defense and heavily injure two people, the strength of the hidden attacker was definitely above his own.
Thinking of this, Fan Hu looked around, his gaze filled with solemnity.
Seeing the situation, Qin Yan walked up to the two men.
He crouched down, and Yimu Longevity True Qi surged upon his palms. The emerald-green True Qi radiated vibrant vitality as it slowly sank into their wounds.
Seeing this, Fan Hu was about to tell Qin Yan not to waste his effort.
If even he couldn't heal them, how could Qin Yan possibly manage it?
What kind of methods could someone at the Sixth-Rank Early Stage have?
But before he could speak, the scene that followed left him shocked!
Where the green True Qi covered, that rampaging Wolf Arrow Intent actually began to be slowly ground away!
The Yimu Longevity True Qi was like spring water melting ice, eroding and dismantling that violent arrow intent bit by bit.
In just a few moments, the green True Qi and Wolf Arrow Intent at the wounds were completely ground away!
At the wound sites, only the Yimu Longevity True Qi remained, slowly repairing the damaged flesh.
"How is this possible!"
Fan Hu cried out in surprise, his eyes bulging.
Something even he couldn't do had been accomplished by this Sixth-Rank Early Stage Qin Yan!
And he had done it so easily and so quickly!
Just what level of Cultivation Technique was this Yimu Longevity True Qi?
To think it possessed such powerful healing strength!
"Young man, your strength is not bad, to actually be able to break my Wolf Arrow Intent!"
At that moment, an aged and cold voice drifted from a distance. The voice was hoarse and grating, making one feel uncomfortable all over.
Following that, a figure appeared not far from the two of them!
It was a hunched old man, small in stature and stooped over as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
But his head was that of a grey wolf!
Grey fur, pointed ears, and a pair of eerie green vertical pupils radiated a cruel and greedy light.
He held a longbow that was grayish-white all over, seemingly made from the bones of some beast. The limbs of the bow were inscribed with dense runes, emitting a cold aura.
The bowstring was as thin as a hair, yet it emitted a faint, cold glint as if it could slice through anything.
In the quiver were over a dozen green arrows, with wolf phantoms faintly swirling around the tips.
A powerful aura radiated from him—the unique pressure of the Sixth-Rank Late Stage!
The surrounding air vibrated slightly, and the weeds beneath his feet trembled.
"Old Monster Canglang, how can it be you!"
When Fan Hu saw the old man, he cried out in alarm, his voice filled with terror.
He subconsciously took a step back.
"Old Monster Canglang? Who is that?"
Qin Yan didn't understand and turned his head to ask.
At that moment, Nangong Waner's voice came from behind Qin Yan.
"Old Monster Canglang is the third leader of the Azure Wolf Gang outside Taixuan City. He is naturally cruel and loves to torture people, especially young girls..."
At this point, Nangong Waner's voice was trembling, her face pale and her eyes full of fear.
She hadn't expected Old Monster Canglang to appear here. What were they to do!
One had to know that Old Monster Canglang was at the Sixth-Rank Late Stage!
He was even stronger than her father!
How could the few of them possibly be his match!
Hearing this, Qin Yan gave a faint "Oh."
"Since you've heard of my name, little girl, you're quite good."
Old Monster Canglang licked his lips, his eerie green vertical pupils staring fixedly at Nangong Waner.
"Once I catch you, I'll make you feel like you're floating between life and death, Jie Jie Jie!"
That laughter was sinister and terrifying, like the cry of a night owl. For a moment, it echoed across the plains, making one shiver.
Fan Hu looked at his two heavily injured teammates—although their injuries were suppressed by Qin Yan, their faces were pale and their auras weak; they had no combat capability for the time being!
And Qin Yan was only at the Sixth-Rank Early Stage, while Nangong Waner was only at the Fourth-Rank, not even counting as combat power!
On his own, he had to face Old Monster Canglang of the Sixth-Rank Late Stage; he was completely outmatched!
Fan Hu hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resolve!
Golden True Qi suddenly erupted around him as he kicked off, racing toward the distance!
His speed was astonishingly fast, covering dozens of yards in the blink of an eye.
He didn't look back, not daring to stop for a single moment.
It wasn't that he wanted to leave, but the team was simply no match for the enemy.
