She had already rested for a night. The demonic energy she had expended previously had returned, so she was eager to go all out.

The howls grew closer.

As there was no fierce battle like yesterday, the Warrior Wolves were more alert. They quickly discovered the presence of an unfamiliar aura.

A small group of Warrior Wolves rushed towards them, baring their teeth. With a few leaps, they closed in on Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue and attacked them.

“Be careful!”

Young Master Nie broke out in a cold sweat for them when he saw Warrior Wolves charging towards them. He could not help but alert them.

Warrior Wolves were small, but their numbers were overwhelming. These wolves were only the vanguard, but they were here to probe and assess the enemy.

Once they left, more warrior wolves would arrive.

Young Master Nie did not understand why Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue were not leaving. Were they really here for the Warrior Wolves? He could not help but feel afraid for them.

However, his worries were destined to be useless.

Before An Jiuyue could do anything, Qian Jiyun raised his hand and flicked his sleeve, sending the ferocious Warrior Wolves flying.

Most importantly, they were unable to stand up again after being flung away and landing on the ground.

“Are they… dead?” Young Master Nie was terrified.

Even the guards beside him wore strange expressions when they witnessed this scene.

They had seen Qian Jiyun merely flicking his sleeve without exerting much effort, and it seemed impossible that the Warrior Wolves could be killed just like that.

If it were them, wouldn’t they have to engage in a prolonged battle even with just a single Warrior Wolf?

“This… This is too terrifying. They’re clearly… about our age,” the guard standing beside Young Master Nie muttered to himself.

Qian Jiyun looked about their age, while An Jiuyue seemed younger than them.

Why were they so terrifyingly powerful?

“Did they come here just to hunt Warrior Wolves?” a guard asked.

They had noticed it earlier, right? Those two had deliberately moved in the direction where the howls were the loudest. It was hard to believe they were not here for the Warrior Wolves.

Upon hearing this, the guards looked at each other and finally looked at Young Master Nie in unison.

Young Master Nie was also very confused. When he first met them, he was worried about them. He felt that they were courting death by coming to

Scorching Rock Peak on their own.

But from the looks of it, that was not the case. They were clearly after the lives of the demonic beasts on Scorching Rock Peak.

While they were dazed, more Warrior Wolves charged over. Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue attacked the Warrior Wolves without mercy.

The demonic energy An Jiuyue used was especially obvious to Qian Jiyun.

Meanwhile, to Young Master Nie and the others, who had never seen demonic energy, it was simply a special application of Original Soul energy.

In the military camp at the border of the Zhanling Empire, Zhan Beiye stood with one hand on his hip as he watched the soldiers walking back and forth. Half of them were injured.

“Has Ming Fucheng gone crazy?” He exhaled heavily and could not help but curse..
