Capítulo 126: Chapter 126: The Little Wolf Encounters Calamity
At the entrance of the valley, the large red wolf halted, gently lowering its head to the ground to allow the little wolf to disembark smoothly.
The little wolf dashed ahead gleefully, bounding off the large wolf's head, with Zhong Shan following closely behind.
The little wolf let out two soft howls towards the large wolf. The large wolf nodded in acknowledgment and turned to leave.
Now, only Zhong Shan and the little wolf remained.
The sky had darkened, but the little wolf's excitement had not waned. It continued leading Zhong Shan deeper into the valley, as if eager to show him its treasures.
The previous scene still left Zhong Shan feeling as if he were in a dream. The parade of wolves felt like a grand military review, with the little wolf acting as his guide through this awe-inspiring spectacle.
Following the little wolf, they swiftly made their way towards the glowing valley. Zhong Shan's heart was filled with anticipation. What strange wonders lay within this luminous valley?
Earlier, during the grand display of fireworks, the serene night sky was illuminated with brilliant colors, dazzling and breathtaking.
In a valley, the Emperor of the Yin Moon Dynasty, Mr. Corpse, General Thunder, and others watched the distant fireworks with furrowed brows.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, those... what are those?" General Thunder asked, his curiosity piqued.
"The internal matters of the wolf clan. Do not interfere," the Emperor promptly replied.
Everyone gazed at the distant, vibrant scene with immense curiosity. The spectacle was so magnificent that it left them all in a state of awe.
"Your Majesty, General Qingyun hasn't returned yet. Allow me to go and check," General Thunder said eagerly.
"Wait for General Qingyun. Besides, he mentioned not to go north," the Emperor responded, frowning.
"Your Majesty, it's fine. General Qingyun only mentioned the presence of the wolf clan's young lord, fearing we might disturb them. I'll be careful. I'll return and report back shortly," General Thunder insisted, excitement evident in his voice.
The Emperor frowned, clearly tempted. Why was there such a display of magical power?
"Your Majesty, I'll accompany General Thunder. We'll return quickly," another person suggested.
"Your Majesty, let me go and see," someone else chimed in.
Everyone seemed exceedingly curious and eager to investigate.
The Emperor looked at them, his brow furrowed. "No, wait for General Qingyun. Hmm, Thunder, you go alone. Be cautious and avoid offending any of the wolves."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" General Thunder replied, unable to hide his excitement.
The others looked on enviously, but with the Emperor's decision made, they could say no more.
Filled with excitement, General Thunder took to the sky, heading northward.
With the little wolf leading, Zhong Shan stepped into the glowing valley.
Entering the valley, Zhong Shan finally saw the source of the light.
This was a peculiar valley, with a pond occupying most of its expanse. The light emanated from the flowers surrounding the valley—glowing flowers, many of which grew underwater, making the entire pond shimmer with a beautiful, clear light.
Flowers of various shapes and sizes filled the valley, their radiant glow accompanied by a fragrance that instantly calmed Zhong Shan's mind, making him feel incredibly relaxed and at peace.
The luminous flowers and the shimmering water created a scene that looked like a celestial paradise. Occasionally, a few dandelion-like glowing seeds floated by, adding to the dreamy and magical atmosphere.
It was no wonder the little wolf loved this place. Even Zhong Shan was awestruck by its beauty and splendor.
Although Zhong Shan was somewhat mesmerized, he recognized the glowing flowers in the valley. They were recorded in the Rare Treasures Pavilion as "Luminous Hundred Flowers," a top-grade material of the fifth rank. These flowers were even more precious than his Flame Fruits.
The Luminous Hundred Flowers grew from a single rhizome, producing a hundred different blooms. During the day, they absorbed light and at night, they glowed. Moreover, these flowers produced a unique dew that gathered in the center of a transparent flower. This dew, known as Hundred Flowers Dew, accumulated essence through the rhizome and fused into a single cup of dew, which had miraculous healing and rejuvenating properties. Remarkably, unless it was rainy weather, a cup of this dew could be collected daily.
Upon entering the valley, Zhong Shan quickly spotted the transparent flower in a corner not far away.
The little wolf led the way, walking over a long rhizome that stretched across the pond like a narrow bridge. It seemed to be showing Zhong Shan around its treasure trove, excitedly running ahead, then back to him, rubbing against him proudly as if boasting about its private sanctuary.
However, perhaps due to the little wolf's enthusiastic rubbing, Zhong Shan's foot slipped, causing both him and the little wolf to slide.
"Plop! Plop!"
Man and wolf fell into the dreamlike pond, causing a great splash. The little wolf seemed even more excited, frolicking joyfully in the water and letting out happy howls.
Seeing the little wolf so thrilled, Zhong Shan scooped up some water and splashed it on the little wolf's head. The little wolf, now drenched, eagerly splashed back with its small paws.
Man and wolf engaged in a playful water fight, their excitement palpable.
Meanwhile, General Thunder had flown to the site where the wolves had performed their magic, only to find them dispersing. The sky was no longer filled with fireworks, leaving him slightly disappointed. Yet, the sight of the gathered wolves left him deeply impressed.
As he watched, a departing red wolf suddenly froze, turning to glare at him with narrowed eyes.
"Arroooo!"
The wolf bared its teeth and howled fiercely, clearly unwelcoming.
General Thunder quickly nodded and retreated, not wanting to provoke the wolves. These wolves included many at the Nascent Soul stage. Though they chose not to fly, they could, and if they attacked en masse, not even the Emperor could save him.
Sweating coldly, General Thunder retreated to a safer distance, where no wolves were present.
Suddenly, he spotted a glowing valley in the distance. His eyes lit up with curiosity. What was that?
Driven by his curiosity, General Thunder quickly flew towards the valley.
From outside the valley, he saw the source of the light: numerous glowing flowers. The entire valley was filled with these radiant blooms. What kind of flowers were they?
"Hahaha, hahaha!" A hearty laugh echoed from within the valley.
"Arrooo! Arrooo!" The little wolf's excited howls followed.
Hearing the wolf, General Thunder didn't think much of it, but the hearty laugh that followed made his pupils contract. A surge of familiarity washed over him, filling his heart.
"Is that that pest? How fortuitous!" General Thunder thought, a malicious smile spreading across his face as he spotted Zhong Shan. "To find him here, of all places."
Using his spiritual sense, he saw Zhong Shan playing in the water with a young wolf that had just entered the innate stage. Seeing the normally composed Zhong Shan acting like a child was both surprising and amusing to him.
"This fool, playing with a beast like a child," General Thunder thought disdainfully. "At least there's no danger."
He began his descent slowly.
"Hahaha, pest, we meet again!" General Thunder called out joyfully as he landed.
Hearing the unexpected voice, both Zhong Shan and the little wolf froze. Quickly, Zhong Shan retrieved his large saber, "Nightmare," and, grabbing the little wolf, tried to flee the valley.
Recognizing the voice, Zhong Shan felt a pang of worry. He clutched the little wolf tightly as he attempted to escape.
"Hmph!" General Thunder snorted coldly. The formidable aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator burst forth, overwhelming and pressing down on Zhong Shan and the little wolf without restraint.
"Bang!"
The oppressive force knocked Zhong Shan from his airborne stance, causing him to crash onto the shore of the pond. As he fell, he held the little wolf protectively to prevent it from getting hurt.
"Hahaha, let's see where you can run to today!" General Thunder exclaimed, feeling victorious and elated.
"Roar!"
The little wolf, sensing the hostility, quickly stood up, baring its teeth at General Thunder. Despite its small and weak stature, it tried to scare away the powerful adversary.
"Hahaha, even this little beast dares to block me?" General Thunder laughed heartily, finding the little wolf's defiance amusing.
With a flick of his hand, he sent a bolt of lightning straight at the little wolf.
Seeing this, Zhong Shan leaped, shielding the little wolf with his body.
"Boom!"
The lightning struck Zhong Shan's back, sending sparks crackling and flying everywhere.
