Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Silver Wolf Group (2) Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Silver Wolf Group (2) “Miss, may I ask for your name?” The young man’s face bore a faint smile, his clear eyes sincerely looking at the girl in front of him, “My family name is Qin, and my first name is Yi. This is my cousin Ji Shui Rou. Rourou’s health is not good, so upon hearing that there will be many Alchemy Masters at this Medicine Sect Gathering, we hoped to seek the help of one. I wonder what brings the two of you into the Demon Beast Mountain?”

Mu Ruyue smiled lightly, “I am Mu Ruyue, and this is Ye Wuchen. Like you, we are both here to attend the Medicine Sect Gathering.”

“What a coincidence,” Qin Yi didn’t say anything more, but turned to look at the person behind him and said, “Uncle Zhang, please take Rourou to the sedan at the back. We should continue on our journey.”

Uncle Zhang silently nodded and took Ji Shui Rou from Qin Yi’s hands, “Miss, let’s go. Your health isn’t well, you shouldn’t walk too much.”

Ji Shui Rou struggled fiercely to free herself from Uncle Zhang, bit her lip, and said, “Cousin, are you really going to let them follow? The Demon Beast Mountain is so dangerous, what if they slow us down?”

More importantly, she didn’t want this woman to stay in the group…
“Rourou.”

Qin Yi, unaware of Ji Shui Rou’s scheming thoughts, didn’t understand why the usually sensible Rourou was acting this way today. Miss Mu had lost her way, and it was only natural for him to help. The Rourou of the past was kind-hearted and would have also not ignored her in need, yet now she seemed to harbor some animosity towards Miss Mu…
“Wuchen, since they’re not welcoming, let’s leave,” said Mu Ruyue with a light glance at Ji Shui Rou.

She wanted to reach the Medicine Sect before the gathering, but that didn’t mean she would stay without self-respect. If they didn’t welcome her, why should she forsake her dignity and insist on staying?

“Alright.” Ye Wuchen’s lips curled up in a smile. To him, any decision Mu Ruyue made was correct.

However, when he thought of the way Qin Yi looked at Mu Ruyue just moments before, he felt a surge of sourness in his heart, and naturally, leaving this place was for the best…
“Miss Mu, please wait,” Qin Yi, paying no attention to Ji Shui Rou’s aggrieved look, wanted to chase after Mu Ruyue, “Miss Mu, it’s too dangerous for a young lady to venture into the Demon Beast Mountain Range alone.”

What does ‘a young lady’ mean?

Ye Wuchen’s expression darkened. Was he not a human then?

Suddenly, rustling sounds came from the bushes, and before everyone could react, loud howls pierced the sky. Then, several silver-colored wolves sprang out of the vegetation.

“It’s Silver Wolves!”

“Good heavens, there are so many Silver Wolves, and the one leading them is a Ninth-level Silver Wolf King!”

A Ninth-level Silver Wolf King was a tyrant within the Demon Beast Mountain.

Everyone gasped, hurriedly drew their weapons, and eyed the encircling Silver Wolf Group with a tint of vigilance in their gaze.

“Uncle Zhang, protect Rourou!”

Qin Yi drew his sword, his handsome face showing dread.

The strongest in the group were only Eighth Rank Martial Artists, but the Silver Wolf King was Ninth-level…

Ji Shui Rou was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly. Accustomed to living in luxury, when had she ever seen so many fierce Silver Wolves? It was already good that she hadn’t fainted from fear.

With a fierce howl, the Silver Wolf charged towards the group of humans.

Under the blood-tinted sunset, the Demon Beast Mountain was stained with fresh blood. The attack of the Silver Wolves was ferocious; how could the group, however strong, withstand so many Silver Wolves? Let alone the fact that a Ninth-level Silver Wolf King was lurking ominously nearby.
