， “…… Yes...... Ahh......hh ......Uhh Yes...... Ahh......h ”

After making an appointment with the wolf demon, Sora hid in a small alley where no one was seen.

Unable to support his body with his weak legs, Sora reluctantly leaned his back against the dusty wall, his heart pounding, his teeth chattering, and his vision began to blur, and the intense tension almost made Sora faint on the spot.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is clear that he is a rich man who loses to bankruptcy because of gambling.

"Why is this happening! Why did things turn out like this! ”

Sora gritted his teeth and muttered with remorse.

That's right, the reason why Sora became the way he is now is all due to what happened just now.

This should have been an avoidable encounter, but because Sora was too obsessed with reading comics on the road, so that when he reacted, he realized that he had been inexplicably caught in a battle, and even more unfortunate invader, the wolf demon, did not seem to run away because of Sora's reputation, on the contrary, he would take the initiative to fight, out of desperation, Sora had to come up with a reason to get out.

"I shouldn't be so obsessed with reading comics, otherwise I wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing...... Phew! ”

At the moment before the empty words were finished, a strong feeling of nausea invaded the air, and the air reflexively covered his lips with his hands, trying to suppress the urge to vomit, but the air understood that this was not simply caused by nervousness, but because-

"The ...... in the world There will be ...... Such a stinky bad breath! ”

Yes, it was obviously caused by the wolf's roar at the time.

But the only thing that can be fortunate is that I endured this shocking bad breath at the time and didn't spit it out on the spot, otherwise the wolf demon would have been completely exposed when he saw this scene, and if the wolf demon saw that he had no strength at all, the result would be unimaginable.

"Hey, how can that kind of monster win with someone like me."

Empty hands burned on his chest, trying to calm his mood.

"Sure enough, the position of the first seat of this ZP1 unit is really not good."

After speaking, "hiss~" He took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it again, filling his body with fresh air again, and this breathing method lasted for about twenty times.

"Well, forget it, it's not a way to stay here any longer, I'd better go home, how can someone as weak as me win that kind of monster, let's hand it over to those two people just now."

Sora lowered his head and made such a decision in frustration, and began to slowly walk out of the alley.

But at this moment, a sense of uneasiness condemned by conscience invaded the air, "Is this really going to run away?" Immediately after that, this sentence suddenly appeared in Sora's mind, causing Sora to involuntarily stop his steps, but-

"There's no way around it!"

He was obviously so weak, it was impossible to win the wolf demon at all, and then he rushed out of the alley desperately and ran in the direction of his home.

◇

Now, while Li Hu and Feng Xue crossed their arms, the two of them stood quietly with their backs leaning against the same tree, while the wolf demon in human form opposite squinted his eyes and sat cross-legged on a piece of grass.

The reason why they are here is only one purpose, and that is to wait for the arrival of the first seat of the ZP1 unit, the empty one.

At this moment, Li Hu leaned his face towards the wind and snow, and said in a small voice that the wolf demon could not hear:

"Hey, Fengxue, why hasn't Sora come back yet, it's been ten minutes."

"I don't know anything like that."

Feng Xue squinted his eyes and shook his head, and Li Hu immediately found that the wolf demon seemed to be clenching his fists impatiently now, which was no wonder, because the three minutes originally agreed with the empty time had now passed ten minutes, which was far beyond the agreed time.

"Hey! Is this what your Heavenly Kingdom calls the ZP1 troops? Looks like he's just a coward, so he's running away? ”

It's as if I'm running out of patience and waiting, "Boom! With a bang, the wolf demon maintained a cross-seated posture and angrily slammed his fist to the ground, and a slight crack appeared on the ground that was hit, and a cracking sound sounded.

"What are you talking about! How could the people of Unit ZP1 escape! Sora must have been delayed on the way! ”

Although I don't know why Sora has been delayed, but the wolf demon dared to insult the ZP1 troops like this, Li Hu showed a sharp gaze and glared at the wolf demon fiercely.

"I don't need someone from the ZP1 unit to deal with someone like you, I, Li Hu, am enough!"

After speaking, Li Hu gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth to hold the hilt of the knife, and he didn't care if Sora would come back, so he directly planned to pull out his katana and fight the wolf demon again, but just a moment ago-

"Be quiet!"

Feng Xue frowned impatiently, "Knock! With a bang, an iron fist fell on Li Hu's head.

"It hurts! What are you doing, Wind and Snow! ”

was punched inexplicably, Li Hu said accusatory.

But Feng Xue didn't mind at all, she leaned against the tree, folded her arms, and said in a small voice that the wolf demon could not hear:

"I think it's empty, he probably won't come back."

"Huh? Why is that? ”

Listening to Feng Xue's guess, Li Hu tilted his head in confusion as if he had forgotten the pain just now.

So Feng Xue put his hand on his chin and began to explain:

"What should I say, this should just be my intuition, now ten minutes have passed, completely beyond the agreed time, and Sora just used such an idiotic reason to get out, and it is also a loss for the wolf demon to believe it."

"Really? Is this reason idiotic? ”

Li Hu scratched his cheeks with a wry smile, after all, "it's about to rain, I have to go home to collect clothes", Li Hu used to often use this reason to get out, but the effect was really significant at that time.

"I don't think we can wait any longer, if it doesn't appear in another two minutes, it means that the chances of him coming back here to deal with the wolf demon are getting lower and lower."

Feng Xue went on to say with such certainty:

"In this case, sooner or later, the wolf demon will fight with us again, so we can only strike first and catch him off guard."

Feng Xue is right, if the air has not appeared, it is not a way to wait like this, and the wolf demon does not seem to have the patience to continue to wait for a long time, it is no wonder, after all, it is far beyond the agreed time, causing the wolf demon to be like a time bomb, and it may break out at any time to fight with Li Hu and Feng Xue again, if you do it according to Feng Xue, it is indeed a good way.

But Feng Xue frowned suspiciously, because after Li Hu listened to the suggestion, he had been thinking for a while by putting his hand on his chin.

"Do you understand?"

"Do you really want to do this? But I still don't really want to take advantage of that guy, and only by defeating him from the front can I have momentum! ”

“……！”

At the moment when Li Hu finished saying this, Feng Xue suddenly showed a terrifying expression, and the black mask on her face kept floating, staring at Li Hu like a ray of death.

“…… Hey! ”

Suddenly, feeling an unprecedented sense of fear, Li Hu couldn't help the momentum of the wind and snow, and immediately changed his words in a panic and said, "I understand", and maybe he would be killed tragically after a few seconds of delay.

What a dead brain, Feng Xue let out a breath of helplessness, then took out his pocket watch from his pocket, pressed the upper button and started the timer.

"From now on, the countdown, if the void hasn't appeared in a minute, then let's attack the wolf demon first."

Li Hu nodded in agreement.

I hope that within this minute countdown, the wolf demon will not be impatient and attack first, if this is the case, the situation will be unfavorable to Li Hu's side, or if Sora arrives in time, it will be the best, presumably the people of the ZP1 unit will definitely be completely easy to deal with the wolf demon, not to mention that the air is still the first seat of the ZP1 unit, and the person who has killed the cadres of the demon country.

However, time continues to pass minute by minute, and soon there are only the last ten seconds left, and now there is still no empty figure around, maybe the empty will really not come back here, but fortunately, the wolf demon is still squinting and sitting on the ground waiting for the air.

"Li Hu, get ready."

Feng Xue stared at the pocket watch in his hand, as if reminding Li Hu to urge him, so Li Hu replied briefly "yes", and then raised his hand to hold the handle of the katana.

Then, 3...... 2…… 1. A minute has passed.

"Whew!" With a bang, Li Hu and Feng Xue pulled out their katana almost at the same time, and the sound of blades rubbing overlapped, and then Li Hu went around to the back of the wolf demon with lightning speed, and Feng Xue directly attacked the wolf demon from the front in order to cover Li Hu.

At this time, the wolf demon didn't seem to notice the actions of the two, he was still sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes squinted, in this case, maybe he could succeed.

Li Hu and Feng Xue seized this golden opportunity, and the two of them raised their katanas high above their heads, aiming them at the back and front of the wolf demon.

However, just before touching the wolf demon-

"Hmm!"

"What!"

Faced with the sudden situation, Li Hu followed Fengxue and made a shocked sound.

The reason is very simple, because suddenly a few pieces of brown wood drilled out of the ground around the wolf demon at a lightning speed, as if protecting the wolf demon, Li Hu and Feng Xue's blades were all slashed on the brown wood, but these brown pieces of wood were as solid as a rock, and they were unscathed.

"What's going on?"

Before Li Hu could react, the few brown pieces of wood that surrounded the wolf demon had already begun to rotate counterclockwise, and in less than two seconds, the wolf demon was imprisoned in this impermeable wooden ball like a cage.

Seeing the abnormal scene happening in front of him, Li Hu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"This can't be the wood element in the elemental law, why is it in such a place?"

Feng Xue suddenly made such a guess, and for a moment, Feng Xue thought that this might be the elemental method released by the wolf demon, no, Feng Xue immediately dispelled this idea.

If a human wants to use the elemental method, these two conditions must be met, one is to have one of the two weapons, the spirit sword or the spirit ring, and the other is to have enough spiritual energy in the body before the spiritual ring can convert the spiritual energy into the elemental method.

But for the demon, if you want to use the elemental method, you must rely on the demon knife to absorb the demon qi in the body, and the wolf demon undoubtedly has a huge demon qi in the body, which Fengxue is very sure of, and has a deep understanding, but the problem is another point, that is, the demon knife, from the battle just now, Fengxue did not find that the wolf demon had a demon knife hidden in the body, and even an ordinary katana was not seen, which means that the elemental law in front of him could not be released by the wolf demon.

So who exactly released the Elemental Law, is it friend or foe?

At this time-

"You two are alright?"

A calm voice came from behind the wind and snow.

"Huh?"

“……？”

Li Hu tilted his head with Feng Xue, cast his puzzled gaze to the source of the sound, and couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the face of the man in front of him.

With gray hair like mist, a snow-white cloak draped over his shoulders, and sharp eyes like eagle eyes, he still has a kind temperament, and when ordinary people see him at first glance, they may mistakenly think that he is a knight, but unfortunately it is not right, because he is the captain of the ZP7 unit - Luohan.

"That person is ......!"

"Captain Rohan!"

Li Hu followed the wind and snow with a stunned voice, and saw that Luo Han was slowly pulling out the "spirit sword" in his hand from the ground, and then retracted it into the scabbard.

After seeing the captain's movements, Li Hu and Feng Xue nodded as if they suddenly realized, because the elemental method that imprisoned the wolf demon was obviously released by Captain Luohan.

As the battle seemed to be over, the wind and snow slowly removed the black mask from his face.

"Huh?"

It seems that the person who rushed to the scene to support was not only Captain Luohan, because Li Hu saw that there were more than a dozen people standing behind the captain, and when he looked at it, everyone seemed to be quite familiar, it seemed that it was right, they were all members of the ZP7 unit.

"Captain Rohan, why are you all here?"

After Fengxue asked, Luo Han replied while looking around at the tragic situation:

"Because I received an urgent message for help from a guard, I immediately rushed over with all the members of the ZP7 unit, but I didn't expect the scene to be really a mess."

"That's the guy."

Hearing Luo Han say this, Li Hu's mind immediately appeared with the appearance of that person.

That's right, it should be the guard who tried to evade the wolf demon's attack by playing dead, and suffered the same bad breath attack of the wolf demon like Li Hu.

"What about the other invaders besides this wolf demon? Have you been defeated? ”

After Luo Han asked, Li Hu stretched out his finger and pointed at the two unconscious wolf demons lying on the ground in the distance.

"In addition, there are two unconscious wolf demons lying there, which have been solved by me and Fengxue."

"That's right, you're pretty capable, you two."

"Where, where, it's just that those two wolf demons are too weak."

"So I'll lighten the punishment for the two of you to be late for the gathering."

After listening to Luohan's words, Li Hu, who originally had an immodest face and spread his arms, couldn't help but raise his voice dyed with panic.

"Huh——! Is it just lightening? ”

And the wind and snow are emitting "...... Hmmm! I couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Just kidding, forget it this time, but next time you encounter this kind of thing, I hope you all act together."

After Luo Han said this, Li Hu followed Feng Xue and let out a breath of relief.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind Luo Han.

"Yo! Li Hu, you're okay, why are you dirty. ”

"Zhang Hao."

Li Hu called his name, only to see Zhang Hao ask with an expression that didn't seem to be worried at all.

Obviously, the reason why Li Hu became like this was mainly because he was hit by the wolf demon's head at that time, but-

"It's okay, it's just that I accidentally fell while dealing with the wolf demon."

Li Hu waved his arm nonchalantly as if he was going to perfunctory the past, Zhang Hao didn't seem to care much, he sighed and said:

"Really? I hope that with your strength, you won't be dragged back by the wind and snow. ”

"What are you kidding, how could I possibly drag the wind and snow back, if it were some people, it would be difficult to say."

"I remember someone who doesn't seem to be as strong as me, just a fourteenth seat."

"Isn't the second seat very powerful?"

"Of course."

Zhang Hao and Li Hu met each other's sharp eyes, and you argued with each other.

"Sure enough, some bereaved dogs who are shameless and don't have back pain when they stand and talk can really blow."

"What......!"

Hearing the prickly words in Li Hu's words, Zhang Hao unconsciously twitched his eyebrows.

"Who do you mean is a lost dog!"

"Whoever recognizes it is it!"

"What! Do you want to quarrel? ”

"That's fine!"

The two sides continued to engage in a verbal battle, and although the members of the ZP7 unit around them had become accustomed to casting hopeless glances at the two of them, they seemed to be unconcerned at all and completely ignored them.

So, Luo Han, who was standing next to him, looked unbearable, just when a female team member was about to go to dissuade the two from arguing.

"You two give me a quiet moment!"

Captain Rohan let out an octave shout.

Boom! Boom! Two iron fists fell heavily on the heads of Li Hu and Zhang Hao.

"It hurts!"

"Ahh

The two crouched to the side with their heads pressed and looked at each other with displeased expressions on each other's faces.

"Damn! You've made me miserable. ”

"Really? I don't know who hurt whom? ”

"You two, hurry up and bring all the unconscious guards to the medical team for treatment."

Hearing Captain Luohan's sudden order, Li Hu and Zhang Hao shouted in surprise, and then the two of them begged and said:

"Why are we doing this kind of thing?"

"Shouldn't it be the job of the medical class?"

"Less nonsense, the medical team hasn't come yet, you guys hurry up-"

However, at this moment when Luo Han impatiently urged Li Hu and Zhang Hao-

Bang————!

With a deafening cracking sound suddenly sounded nearby, countless wood chips fell from the sky, making a "pop" sound and smashing on the ground.

“……！”

Everyone abruptly turned their eyes to the source of the sound, and their eyes widened in astonishment.

The reason is very simple, because I don't know what means the wolf demon used, causing all the wood elements that imprisoned it to be shaken away, I saw him standing in place with his right hand raised high above his head.

"Even this level of wood elemental wants to trap me? You must be underestimating me! ”

"I broke free!"

Li Hu let out a shocked voice.

"You lowly humans!"

The wolf demon slowly lowered his raised arm as he spoke, and then pointed in the direction of Li Hu and the others in front of him, and at the moment when he bent his five fingers, the demonic qi on his body seemed to be condensed in front of his palm, and gradually formed an irregular black sphere.

"Let's die for Lao Tzu!"

Then the black demonic aura grew larger until it was almost larger than the wolf demon's entire body.

"All ready for battle!"

After sensing the wolf demon's intentions, the captain gave an order, "Huh! Shout! "Everyone obeyed ......the captain's command, drew their katanas, and entered the battle state, alerting the wolf demon.

At this moment, the situation is no longer the previous two-on-one, but has become twenty-one, and the number alone has an absolute advantage, and Li Hu knows very well that Luohan's strength is strong, he is the strongest person in the entire ZP7 unit, and has even reached the level of the ZP3 unit, maybe the strength of the captain alone is enough to fight against the wolf demon.

That's right, now this battle has no chance of winning for the wolf demon, and it is only a matter of time before he is defeated.

That's when —

"Ahh

An awe-inspiring voice came from behind the wolf demon.

"What-"

In the next moment, they were dumbfounded by the sight they were witnessing.

There was a white expanse in front of him, and there seemed to be a huge white crescent-shaped sword qi attacking the back of the wolf demon, because of the intense light released by the sword qi, coupled with the dust raging in the wind, Li Hu couldn't help but raise his hand to block his vision.

"What's going on?"

"Can't see what's going on at all?"

"What a powerful aura!"

After a few seconds, the sword qi began to dissipate, and the light seemed to have finally weakened to the point where they could open their eyes, and everyone let out a stunned sound while staring intently in the direction of the wolf demon, but because the sand and dust caused by the sword qi did not disperse, it was impossible to know the specific situation inside for the time being.

But even so, all the members of the ZP7 unit still had an incredible expression on their faces, even the most powerful Luo Han was trembling, as far as he knew, there were few people in this world who could use such a powerful aura at will.

Although it is not sure that it is still an enemy, or a friend? But the only thing that is certain now is that the wolf demon was attacked because it had its back to the gate of the royal capital, which meant that the person who released this sword qi came back from outside the royal capital, so the possibility of another intruder could not be ruled out.

But judging from the target of the sword qi just now, there is no doubt that it is aimed at the wolf demon, and there is also the possibility that it is a friendly army.

Soon, the sand and dust scattered in the air gradually dissipated, and a humanoid silhouette could be faintly seen from the dense smoke, and on closer inspection, the silhouette seemed to be gradually getting larger, which should be that he was approaching in the direction of the ZP7 unit, and then, he showed his face.

It is a man about twenty-five years old, wearing a pure black Hanfu, holding a katana in his right hand, no, it doesn't seem to be a katana when you look closely, there are several green vines carved in the snow-white blade, and there is a faint white light around the vines, it seems that the sword in his hand is the same as the captain's, it is also a "spirit sword", but it is not this sword that makes people feel the most conspicuous, but his long floating white hair.

"That's ...... The man—"

At this moment, someone raised a voice dyed with panic, and the Arhat shouted as if to supplement his words:

"Terek, one of the three great sword saints of the Kingdom of Heaven!"

"The Three Great Sword Saints?"

Li Hu looked at the man in front of him in disbelief.

That's right, if you look closely, the white-haired man in front of you is the man in the Kingdom of Heaven who is above the ZP1 unit and is called the Sword Master, and he is also one of the three most powerful.

Just when everyone couldn't take their eyes off Terek, the wolf demon, who was mortally wounded and lying on the ground and kissed the ground, suddenly reached out and grabbed Terike's foot as he was about to pass by.

"Mixed ...... Bastard...... Unexpectedly...... How dare you steal ...... Attack Lao Tzu. ”

"Huh? I'm not even dead. ”

“…… Die? ”

The wolf demon struggled to squeeze the word out of his throat and asked Terike, and then began to endure the severe pain all over his body, exerting the last of his remaining strength, trembling his body as he tried to stand up, the helmet fragments of his head kept falling to the ground.

"That's it...... Is it just you lowly human beings? Don't be kidding, greedy, shameless, selfish, hypocritical human beings like you have already taken away so many things from Lao Tzu, and after Lao Tzu kills all of you, he will kill all of you, and there will be no one ......left."

The wolf demon said, grabbing Terike's placket, and then shouted:

"Lao Tzu won't die!!"

These words resounded all around, constantly reverberating, and reaching everyone's ears.

"Why do you say that?"

Hearing the wolf demon's sudden words of surprise, Li Hu felt the pain of his heart being pinched, he didn't understand why the wolf demon had already been injured and almost killed him, but he still only cared about hating humans.

At first, Li Hu just thought that the wolf demon might be idle and just deliberately find fault, but it wasn't until he heard what he just said that Li Hu understood that the wolf demon must have hated human beings to the point of hatred.

But why do wolf demons hate humans so much? It can't be for no reason, something must have happened to cause the wolf demon to become what it is now.

At this moment, after the helmet protecting the wolf demon's head shattered and completely fell to the ground, Li Hu saw the face.

"———— hmm!"

Li Hu's eyes widened.

It was a man about thirty-five years old.

He has dark purple hair like a rose, and his eyes are now pitiful.

"Wait, I think I've seen him somewhere!"

Even after so many years, Li Hu will not admit his mistake.

He ...... He's - Homik! ”

Yes, the wolf demon standing in front of Terek on his dying, he is the one who saved Li Hu's life ten years ago, and helped Li Hu and others defeat Delisa's demon, Homik.

But Li Hu clearly remembered that Homick and Delisa fell off the cliff together, and they should have died, so why did they appear in front of him?

"How could it be the wolf demon?"

Zhang Hao, who was standing beside him, also seemed to recognize the identity of the wolf demon, and he made an unbelievable sound, so Li Hu excitedly grabbed Zhang Hao's placket.

"Hey! Zhang Hao, shouldn't Hormick fall off the cliff with Dean Delisa? ”

"yes, I saw them fall off the cliff together."

Zhang Hao didn't care about Li Hu's action of grabbing his front placket, he put his hand against his chin and muttered:

"Didn't you die after falling off such a high cliff?"

But since he didn't die, why didn't he recognize Li Hu's identity before, or said that Homike had amnesia after falling off the cliff.

Just when Zhang Hao was thinking like this, Terike suddenly said with a calm attitude:

"Are the last words finished? Then I'll give you relief. ”

With that, Terike raised the spirit sword in his hand high above his head and aimed it at Homik, who was bending down and grabbing his placket.

Homick was now too weak to fight back, and with a slight swing of Terike, he would be killed.

"Hey! What are you going to do? ”

After sensing that Li Hu was trying to stop Terek, Zhang Hao grabbed Li Hu's hand.

"I don't know, I just don't want him dead."

With that, Li Hu let go of his hand and rushed to Homik's position.

"Stop!!"

If Homik was attacked like that again, he would definitely die, Li Hu thought so, and said this involuntarily, and then before he could react, his hands and feet rushed forward as if he was uncontrollable, trying to stop Terike.

And yet—

It was too late, and everyone was looking white again.
