Inside Wind Wolf Town.After dinner, Tang San was called upstairs by Wang Yanfeng. Today was the day they had agreed to meet with the Tiger-faced Man.
At this moment, Tang San's heart suddenly stirred, and the mark belonging to the Flash Leopard within him became distinctly hot, as if even his bloodline were about to boil. He hurriedly used the Mysterious Heaven Method to suppress the restlessness of the mark. Although he didn't know what had happened, he could guess that the Flash Leopard tribe had arrived.
Outside the town!
The yellow glow around Flash Spirit slowly receded, and when it opened its eyes again, they were filled with a vicious, crimson glint.
"This is the place. I can feel the presence of my clansmen. They are still so weak, but they exist all the same. Damn it, it's here! Charge with me, search the entire town, and show no mercy to those who resist!" Flash Spirit bellowed, its figure flashed, and it charged toward the direction of Wind Wolf Town.
The Flash Leopards behind it also let out deep roars one after another, following in its wake, dashing toward Wind Wolf Town like lightning.
The defenses of Wind Wolf Town had always been rather lax; after all, the surrounding vast region was all forest, and the nearest Flash Leopard tribe was a hundred miles away, so there was generally little need for vigilance.
But, when Flash Spirit's roar shattered the silence, the Wind Wolf Town's High Priest, who was just about to have dinner at her dwelling, had her murky eyes suddenly become fixed with intent.
She abruptly raised her hand, and a gust of wind erupted, blowing her human vassals away. At the same time, her slender staff shot out from the inner chamber and landed firmly in her grasp.
With the staff held high, a beam of green light shot up into the sky, and an ancient Wolf howl also emanated from her mouth.
Enveloped in the green light, her body slowly levitated.
By this time, Flash Spirit had already reached the outskirts of Wind Wolf Town. The town had no walls or such, and its speed was incredibly fast. Following the direction it had felt from the Bloodline trigger, it darted straight in.
It immediately encountered a Third Stage Wind Wolf.
The Wind Wolf suddenly saw a figure pouncing toward it and instinctively wanted to let out an angry howl, but before it could clearly see its opponent, it felt a sudden pain in its throat, and the roar it wanted to release was trapped within, as its bulky body slowly fell limp.
At that moment, Flash Spirit also saw the beam of green light rising to the skies. It let out a yell, leaping high, with yellow light bursting forth from its body, and its fur once again radiating the yellow halo it had shown before.
The Flash Leopards that had charged into Wind Wolf Town behind it instantly felt their bloodlines boiling, their auras significantly strengthened.
This was the characteristic of the Various Monster Clans. When a strong leader led their own kin into battle, the strong leader's bloodline would augment their kin, enabling them to unleash greater combat strength.
Flash Spirit spotted the rising Wind Wolf Town's High Priest in the distance, its body springing from rooftop to rooftop across the town, heading straight toward the High Priest. As the saying goes, capture the leader first to stop the enemy. This aged Wind Wolf, issuing warnings and exhibiting a formidable aura in the center of the town, was evidently the core of Wind Wolf Town.
At this moment, Wind Wolf Town's High Priest was rising into the air, and she immediately saw the swiftly leaping figure in the distance. Though she was old, her eyesight was clear, and she recognized it as a Flash Leopard. The moment she discerned the opponent's racial characteristics, her heart sank. Flash Leopards and Wind Wolves were always at odds.
But according to the rules of the Monster race, although there were occasional conflicts, they would not lightly invade each other's territories—that was prohibited by the Ancestral Court.
Yet, the other party had indeed come, and with such a brazen disregard. And with such a powerful aura, how could this not surprise the Wind Wolf Town's High Priest?
"Why do you invade our town!" the Wind Wolf Town's High Priest shouted loudly.
However, Flash Spirit clearly had no intention of communicating and let out an angry roar, charging straight towards Wind Wolf Town's High Priest. Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Its figure almost disappeared the moment it lunged. At the same instant, Wind Wolf Town's High Priest felt every hair on his body stand on end, a clear premonition of life and death.
Without the slightest hesitation, his staff burst forth with a powerful blue light, huge rings of blue light enveloping his body.
The brilliant yellow figure almost appeared in front of her simultaneously, its claws already reaching out to grab.
But that blue light also exploded outward, carrying a forceful spinning power that forcibly slid Flash Spirit's body to the side.
The High Priest, who was somewhat shriveled, began to swell in that moment, screaming, "Ancestors, grant me your blessing!" Instantly, the blue light on his body burst forth to its peak, the azure glow beginning to shift towards a darker green hue.
Even the sky seemed illuminated by the blue light, where one could vaguely see the flickering image of a giant wolf's head.
Flash Spirit missed and landed on the roof of a house, watching the High Priest's aura surge with his cry and couldn't help but reveal a trace of surprise in his eyes.
"Returning to ancestors? A worshipper indeed. Who would have thought that this small town harbored a worshipper? No wonder they dared to strike at us." Flash Spirit grew angrier rather than fearful as Wind Wolf Town's High Priest's aura intensified.
At this moment, a long wolf howl rose, "Awooo—"
A massively built figure burst forth, arriving beside the High Priest, turning out to be none other than the Wind Wolf Lord.
At this time, affected by Wind Wolf Town's High Priest's recent call, his body had swelled to nearly four meters high. Every muscle was bulging, exuding ferocity.
He prostrated himself directly in front of the High Priest, his body showing more pronounced ancestral traits. Wind Wolf Town's High Priest floated up, landing on the back of Wind Wolf Town Lord. The two seemed to merge into one, their aura skyrocketing, quickly surpassing the Sixth Stage.
Meanwhile, the Flash Leopards had already broken into the town, and far more than merely searching, upon encountering wolves, they would engage without hesitation. In a moment, both sides were locked in combat.
There were quite a few Wind Wolf Tribe members in Wind Wolf Town, yet the number of true powerhouses was scant. Moreover, many were elderly, women, or children. In contrast, the hundreds of Flash Leopards who came were all in their prime. Hence, in the midst of the slaughter, the wolves were caught off guard and swiftly began to fall back, leaving corpses strewn on the ground.
Wind Wolf High Priest, now with eyes of dark green shining with ferocity, glared at Flash Spirit, "Why? Why attack our clan? Don't you know that invading another race's territory uninvited is forbidden by the Ancestral Court?"
"Invading uninvited? Your clan steals our children, and you have the audacity to question me?" Flash Spirit's eyes blazed with fierce light, and his aura also began to ascend sharply, clearly indicating the full activation of his boiling bloodline.
"Stealing your children?" Wind Wolf Town's High Priest was visibly taken aback, glancing down at the Wind Wolf Town Lord beneath her.
Stealing the children of another clan was an absolute taboo among the Monster Clans. There had already been issues between the Wolf Clan and the Flash Leopard tribe. The earliest animosity between them started just like this.
The flesh of wolves was not tasty, and nobody coveted it. The Flash Leopard tribe was pretty much the same. However, the odd thing was, the young of the Leopard demon branch possessed a certain special spiritual nature. If a young Leopard demon was eaten during childhood, regardless of which branch within the Leopard demons, it was greatly nourishing to all Monster Clans. It could even enhance the spiritual nature of one's bloodline and promote the evolution of the bloodline.
Therefore, poaching the young of the Leopard demon branch was a recurring problem. For this, the entire Leopard demon branch harbored extreme hatred. While protecting their young with all their might, they also unleashed full-scale retribution against those clans who dared to poach their young, leading to several large-scale battles. For this reason, the Leopard demon clans became particularly united.
It wasn't until later that the Ancestral Court of the Monster Clans formally declared a strict prohibition against poaching the young of the Leopard demon branch, stating that the Leopard demon tribe had the right to hunt down and kill any violators, and that the Ancestral Court would hold the offending clan responsible.
Thus, hunting the offspring of the Leopard demon branch was an absolute taboo!
