The black wolf spread its limbs, lowered its head, and widened its fierce eyes. It bared its teeth and gave Lin Qiao a deep roar, with the hair on its neck risen.
"Hrrrr…" The wolf wasn't expecting the zombie to catch up with it. At that point, it realized that Lin Qiao was coming at it.
Lin Qiao stably stood on a tree nearby, wielding her hands to control the dark fire that was hovering around her body.
The black wolf narrowed its eyes to observe her. That human-like creature gave out a strong zombie vibe. Back in the poisonous forest, the wolf had realized that she was strong enough to threaten its life. She was at the same level as the wolf, but the latter instinctively felt that she was dangerous.
That was why the wolf ran away once it grasped a chance. But to its surprise, the human-like zombie found it. Her vibe was lingering in the area where a weird vibe could be sensed from just now. However, after a short disappearance, her vibe was sensed right near the wolf.
"Roar!" The black wolf glared at Lin Qiao and gave another roar, then popped its claws and leaped high as it pounced on her tree. At that moment, Lin Qiao jumped and swung her arms forward, sending a stream of black fire straight to the wolf's face.
The wolf opened its mouth wide and let out a cloud of icy mist, freezing Lin Qiao's black fire and making it fall to the ground. As the ice fell, the wolf leaped over and stepped on it to jump back into the air.
At that point, Lin Qiao, who was in front of the wolf, had disappeared without a trace.
"Roar!" The wolf landed on the tree where Lin Qiao stepped on before and stopped moving, carefully observing the surrounding area with a pair of sharp eyes and searching for any trace of Lin Qiao.
The invisible Lin Qiao slowly came behind the black wolf, prepared to give it a lethal strike.
"Owowowow…" At that very moment, a huge black dog suddenly rushed over and barked loudly. The dog swiftly rushed cross under the tree that the wolf king was on. Behind it were a few mutated wolves at level five or six.
"Woooo…" The group of wolves bared their teeth and glared at the dog ragingly, seemingly even wanting to tear him into pieces. As those wolves ran over, Lin Qiao saw the wounds on their butts.
The wolf king stood on the tree and looked at the dog and the group of wolves silently.
Where the hell did the silly dog came from? Was it putting up some kind of funny show?
If it didn't need to stay vigilant against the invisible Lin Qiao, the wolf king would even jump off the tree onto the dog and bite off its head.
"Owowow!" The huge black dog ran like a gust of wind. It created a distance from the group of wolves, then turned and barked at them provokingly. After that, it immediately turned and kept running.
"Wooooo…" Its movement infuriated the wolves who howled even more loudly than before while chasing it.
Seeing the wolves get angry, the dog barked excitedly and ran at lightning speed.
Lin Qiao and the wolf king silently looked at the dog. Lin Qiao wanted to walk to the dog and give it a heavy kick on the butt. Meanwhile, the wolf king was quite angry to see the dog tease the wolves. It couldn't jump off the tree to attack the dog though, because if it did that, the invisible zombie might give it a surprise attack.
As the wolf king was baring its teeth with anger, Lin Qiao suddenly showed up behind it and swung her claws at its back.
"Hrr!" The wolf king was prepared for that, so it reacted the moment she showed up by flashing away and hopping onto another tree. From that tree, it roared at her ferociously.
Lin Qiao didn't manage to touch the wolf. She turned and landed on the ground with her tiptoes, then charged at the wolf king again within a blink. The wolf king raised a paw and sent a sharp wave of ice pieces toward her when her tiptoes touched the ground. However, she wielded her arm and sent a black fire dragon against the ice pieces.
Bang! The ice pieces fell to the ground. At that moment, Lin Qiao flew through the wave of flying ice pieces and swung her claw at the wolf king.
Puff!
"Owooo…" The wolf king already had a few claw wounds on its skin. And this time, Lin Qiao's claws cut into its skin again. The wolf howled in pain, then flinched and fled a long distance away within a blink.
"Errrr…" The wolf landed on a hill that was about two-hundred meters away from Lin Qiao and lowered its body as it stared at Lin Qiao alertly, seeming ready to run at any moment. Lin Qiao moved slightly, then disappeared from where she was. Once again, she turned herself invisible and approached the wolf king.
But, before she went close to the wolf, the familiar dog bark was heard again.
"Owowowowo!" The dog rushed out from behind the wolf king. While brushing across the wolf, he suddenly turned and conveniently bit on the wolf king's butt.
"Hrr!" The wolf had all its attention on Lin Qiao, so it didn't even know how the dog came near it. Being bitten on the butt, the wolf king nearly exploded with anger. It forgot about Lin Qiao who was threatening its life, and turned to madly pounce on the dog, joining the group that was chasing the dog.
"Owoooooo!" 'You b*stard! I'm gonna bite you to death! How dare you bite my butt!'
"Owowowow!" As the wolf king suddenly came after him, Bowwow finally realized that he might have provoked someone that he should not have. The dog screamed and ran like hell, wishing that his owner would show up soon to save his life.
He was not able to win against a level-eight beast!
Lin Qiao, who had approached the wolf king in a perfect way, didn't manage to make any move before Bowwow ruined her plan. She stood on the hill and quietly looked at the dog that was being chased by the wolf king, then at the wolf king that was determinedly trying to bite the dog on the butt.
She did not want to save the dog at all. However, that was her dog after all. Would it be too heartless not to save him? But, the dog always hindered her.
At that moment, over ten-thousand meters deep underground was an enormous, dark space, at least a thousand meters tall. The ground in that space was covered in all kinds of black plants. Those plants were tall and thriving, with huge leaves; all of them were ink black.
The underground space was boundless; apart from the weird black plants, numerous underground rivers also existed there. The river water was black too, looking rather spooky. Some creatures were moving in the rivers, meaning that the rivers weren't deadly.
Boom… Boom… Boom… A series of quaking noises could be heard from the space, seemingly generated by some large-sized creatures while moving. Hearing that noise, the creatures in the dark rivers immediately sank to the bottom, and the surface of the rivers instantly quieted down.
Boom… Boom… Boom… The sound came closer and closer, then faded away gradually. As the sound faded, the quiet river surfaces were rippled again. Some dark figures popped out of the water, then sank back to the bottom.
That place was the earth's core. No one on the earth's surface knew about what was happening there. However, the creatures there were strangely nervous.
