Chapter 8: Chrysanthemum Wilted, Full of Injuries

  One morning, when Xia Yalai was about to take action, his body arched like a large shrimp. Fortunately, the posture of the two lying together in the morning was not suitable for exerting force, and that poor worm's strength was not too great. Otherwise, Xia Yalai's demon-hunting career had not yet started, and he could directly switch to another great career: eunuch.

  But poor insects also don't have it easy.

  Attacking a hunter who had practiced martial arts for over ten years, even in his sleep, Shaya made an instinctive counterattack. The result was that the poor guy got hurt again, and his big eyes were beaten into a pair of black eyes.

  However, after a brief and intense conflict, neither of them mentioned it again.

  The poor worm didn't dare, after all, such a shameful thing, just thinking about it makes people unbearable.

  And Xia Ya... He felt disgusted!

  Getting up early is "one pillar holding up the sky" isn't something to be ashamed of, on the contrary, in the education he received from the old guys, this should be a very glorious thing.

  But against a man "one pillar holding up the sky"…

  (He actually dared to hit me! Those men would have knelt down to kiss my hem if they could! And this bumpkin actually dared to hit me!) The poor worm thought indignantly.

  Ugh! How disgusting! I actually hugged a man... Oh God!! Xia Yare's heart was filled with tears.

  The poor worm quietly tidied up its clothes, Xia Ya started to pack her luggage, then picked up a sturdy tree branch and threw it in front of the poor worm: "Here, this is for you to use as a cane. You can walk by yourself today, I won't support you anymore."

  The proposal was tacitly agreed upon by both of them. At least for now, neither Xia Yu nor Sha Ya wanted to touch each other's body anymore.

  Just as Kya was about to pick up the stick and stand up, suddenly, Xia Ya's whole body tensed up in front of him!

  Then his face suddenly revealed a dangerous expression, and he pounced on the poor worm's body, and the two rolled to the ground.

  "Ah!" The poor insect let out a loud cry and suddenly became flustered in his heart - could it be that this guy saw through my true nature, and my beastly instincts were about to erupt?

  But before this thought had passed, he heard a pained grunt from the tortoise that was pressing against his body.

  The wind carried a fishy smell, and before I could get up, I heard a chilling "Woo" sound coming from the side!

  The poor worm turned its head to one side, and saw a bloody big mouth, sharp fangs still stained with residual blood, the long tongue was covered with villi, and there were some terrifying droplets of liquid dripping from the triangular corners of the mouth!

  This is a bloodthirsty wolf, and it's a big adult one! Its robust physique is like that of a small calf! The brown long spear on its back has stood up, as if covered with sharp thorns! A pair of wolf eyes are crimson red, full of killing and greed. Most importantly, the wolf's front paws are like iron hooks, and there is even a trace of blood left on the tip of the claws.

  Huh? Blood?!

  The poor insect was startled for a moment and immediately reacted.

  Xia Ya quickly jumped up, his axe was not in his hand, but beside the bundle five or six steps away. He could only grab the wooden stick he had given to the poor worm earlier with both hands, turned around and pointed it at the beast.

  With this turn, the poor worm lying on the ground immediately saw Xia Ya's back!

  On his back, two deep gashes almost ran from shoulder to waist, the thick leather cloak was torn apart, and the muscles underneath were split open, with fresh blood dripping down, the wound was a full finger deep!

  Just now, if it wasn't for this turtle hugging me and rolling away, this wolf would have pounced on me. I might have already had my belly ripped open!

  Xia Ya stood still, holding onto the tree trunk, carefully lowering his center of gravity. He and the wolf stared at each other, neither daring to make a sudden move. Xia Ya knew from experience that this bloodthirsty wolf was no ordinary beast. As a magical creature, even a low-ranking one, it possessed a certain level of intelligence, knowing how to find its prey's weak points.

  The bloodthirsty wolf moved sideways with a crouching gait, its back arched and making low growling noises from time to time.

  Finally, when the beast walked to Xia Yareng's left rear side, it suddenly pounced over! Apparently this beast had ample experience fighting humans, and it even knew that most humans' backs were not sensitive, a weakness that could be exploited!

  The giant wolf's pounce, under the powerful force, brought a gust of wind with a hint of stench. Its front claws rose, and the sharp claw tips fell like steel knives. Xia Ya swung his wooden staff to block it, rolling away just in time. With a loud "crack", the staff was already broken into a large piece! The giant wolf's sharp claws easily split the staff, and its momentum suddenly became even more ferocious. It had determined that the human's weapon in front of it was too fragile, seemingly unable to cause much harm to itself. It curled its lips, baring its teeth at Xia Ya, as if looking down on the wooden staff in his hand. The giant wolf pounced again.

  This time, Xia Ya did not retreat. Instead, he let out a low growl and pounced forward! A man and a wolf clashed in mid-air. Just as the giant wolf's claws were about to land on Xia Ya's body, Xia Ya's figure in mid-air suddenly twisted his waist like a fish in water, making an unbelievable twisting motion!

  It was almost that close, and he dodged the giant wolf's claws, hugging the wolf's head from the side! One man and one wolf rolled on the ground, rolling several times, raising the ashes of the originally extinguished fire heap, Xia Yareng had already pounced on the giant wolf's back, waiting for an opportunity, his left hand clenched into a fist and smashed onto the giant wolf's nose!

  With a loud crash, the giant wolf's nasal bone suddenly cracked! Xia Ya was very clear that for any canine animal, the nose is always the weak point. This heavy punch of his immediately made the giant wolf's eyes bleed, and it let out a howl. Its body suddenly sprang up, and its small bull-like physique instantly sent Xia Ya flying backward. Then, it turned around and bit.

  Xia Ya only felt that the big mouth of the blood basin was already stuck to his neck, and he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his head. In a hurry, he pushed up the half tree stick in his hand, and with a "ka" sound, the tree stick was easily bitten off. Xia Ya quickly rolled away, and the tree stick in his hand was only one quarter left.

  The giant wolf got up, shook its head, and its nose was already crooked to one side. It glared at Xia Ya with anger, and the man and the wolf confronted each other again, moving sideways in unison.

  Xia Ya's hand reached his waist, pulled out the rope from his waist, stretched it in his hand into a straight line. When the giant wolf adjusted its pace and pounced again, Xia Ya flashed quickly, then twisted his waist and pounced forward. His movements were extremely swift and fierce, flying onto the giant wolf's back. At this moment, the rope in his hand had already been looped around the giant wolf's head, using his body to press down heavily on the wolf's back, the rope coiled twice, then both arms tightened fiercely!

  Xia Ya's face was ferocious at this moment, the muscles on his neck bulged out, one by one, like iron bars, he exerted all his strength, the rope wrapped around the giant wolf's neck, almost deeply embedded in its skin!

  In the midst of the growling, the giant wolf struggled desperately, its back constantly twisting, a pair of claws digging furiously into the ground. In less than a moment, it had dug out two large holes in the ground. The wolf's head was raised high, and a mouthful of bloody foam had been spat out. Its ox-like body twisted violently, and Xia Ya almost got flipped over several times. He only felt his heart beating faster and faster, his breathing becoming more and more urgent. The struggling force of the giant wolf under him finally weakened. On the ground, apart from the two holes, the sharp wolf claws had scratched out deep marks one after another!

  Just at this moment, with a snap, the rope finally couldn't hold on until the giant wolf's last breath and broke.

  At this moment, Xia Ya couldn't help but scold himself - the rope was made by himself with hemp rope, soaked in animal oil and dried, which was very tough, but it was obviously not enough to tame the brute force of this giant wolf. If he had woven a few more strands of hemp when making the rope, this beast would probably have been dead by now!

  This is not the time for complaints, the giant wolf once escaped, but it didn't have time to counterattack Xia Ya, it was also panting and its strength had been almost exhausted, it crawled forward a few steps with its butt up, raising its head and gasping for breath.

  Xia Ya also rolled out, a beautiful fish jump jumped up, threw away the rope, and only had that short piece of tree stick left in his hand.

  One man one wolf, two guys are panting heavily like in a competition.

  Xia Ya was also incredibly strong, but at this moment he felt weak and numb all over. After all, he was only eighteen years old, and in front of him was a bloodthirsty wolf! This beast could easily kill an ordinary mountain leopard!

  Xia Ya's gaze was fixed on the left, seven or eight steps away, where his axe was. He believed that as long as he could get to the axe, with his "chopping wood" axe skills, he should be able to take care of this beast. However, the wolf seemed to have also noticed this point, and its body slowly shifted horizontally, blocking Xia Ya's line of sight.

  However, the giant wolf's physique was far superior to that of humans. Although Xia Ya was born strong and had been trained by the old man, who had used a foul-smelling herbal bath for over a decade to temper her body into steel, she was still struggling to keep up with the giant wolf's rhythm at this moment.

  Finally, the giant wolf brought out its ultimate move. It let out a howl and its fur suddenly tightened, with a layer of bluish-green light appearing all over its body, like rock.

  This beast has gone berserk! This is the specialty of the bloodthirsty wolf, once it goes berserk, its entire body's fur becomes as hard as stone, ordinary swords and knives can't even scratch it.

  The giant wolf seemed to have known that this opponent was agile and did not pounce again, but instead...

  Crash!!

  The giant wolf's hind legs kicked fiercely, and Xia Ya felt a dark green shadow pressing down on him. Although he struggled to dodge, his physical strength was exhausted, and he was knocked to the ground, feeling half of his body numb. His body flew out and crashed into a small tree behind him, and the thick trunk snapped in two!

  The giant wolf made a successful hit, and then pounced on Xia Ya's shoulder, its sharp claws easily piercing the wolf skin on Xia Ya's body and entering his flesh. The taste of fresh blood further stimulated the wolf's ferocity, and it opened its mouth to bite down.

  Bang!!

  Just then Xia Ya suddenly swung her hand with force.

  He had just been knocked to the ground and fallen under a tree, immediately picked up a stone from the ground and grasped it in his hand. When the giant wolf lowered its head to bite, he swung his hand and slapped the stone on the wolf's head.

  Poor giant wolf, it's really unlucky. Who wouldn't want to provoke Xia Ya? This time, Xia Ya almost used all his strength, the stone hit the giant wolf's head and shattered instantly, with debris flying everywhere! It can be imagined how brutal Xia Ya's slap was!

  The giant wolf was suddenly slapped to the ground, its head tilted to one side, mouth open, and two sharp fangs were snapped off at the roots, falling to the ground.

  Xia Ya had struggled to get up, his right hand still tightly grasping the small piece of wood, and with a quick flip, he stabbed it fiercely into the giant wolf's hindquarters!

  With a "pfft" sound, the tree trunk entered from the giant wolf's anus and went in for two-thirds of its length!

  The giant wolf was hit by this fatal blow, and its body suddenly trembled violently like being electrocuted. It raised its head and let out a mournful howl that shook the heavens and moved the gods, a sound so intense that Xia Ya couldn't help but feel dizzy.

  The giant wolf struggled to get up, but soon fell down, struggling several times, and finally had no strength to move. Before dying, it turned its wolf head around, stared at Xia Ya with a "resentful" gaze, and finally closed its eyes unwillingly.
