Chapter 289: Teaching the Zhihuo

Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Teaching the Zhihuo

In a valley within the Zhihuo Mountain Range, Zhongshan and Liu Wushuang stood on top of Xiao Yan, the Fire Wolf, and headed towards the mountains.

Ada and Nian Youyou were left behind by Zhongshan at the Yu Heng Sect. Ada's task was to keep an eye on Nian Youyou and prevent her from following.

"Grand Marshal, can we really do this?" Liu Wushuang furrowed his brow.

"Don't worry! Just take me to meet Zhihuo," Zhongshan said.

"Alright," Liu Wushuang nodded.

As they walked through the forest, they encountered more and more demonic wolves, their sizes becoming increasingly massive.

The wolves were already accustomed to Liu Wushuang's presence, but Zhongshan's appearance caused a slight stir among them.

Entering the mountains, they soon arrived at the foot of a huge volcano. The volcano emitted thick smoke, but the surroundings seemed to have been smoothed out and there were some buildings, albeit rudimentary. These buildings were quite large and served as residences for some high-ranking wolves.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Zhongshan looked up at the massive volcano.

"Grand Marshal, the father of Xiao Yan, the Zhihuo Wolf General, lives inside the volcano," Liu Wushuang said.

"Mm," Zhongshan nodded.

This was where the most wolves resided. When Zhongshan arrived, a large number of wolves were already staring at him. They didn't know why the chosen one had come here.

Zhongshan jumped down from Xiao Yan's head and found a flat area.

"Heaven and Earth, Xian Xian, come out!" Zhongshan forced out a drop of essence blood from his palm and pressed it on the ground. Suddenly, nine strands of wolf smoke sprayed out in all directions, covering the area in a thick fog.

When the black smoke dispersed, Zhongshan and a half-foot-tall little wolf were revealed.

Xian Xian, still Xian Xian, while other wolves' cultivations increased and their sizes grew, Xian Xian became smaller.

Seeing Zhongshan summoning, Liu Wushuang was slightly stunned at first, then showed a surprised expression. Obviously, he had just learned about Zhongshan's contract with the wolves.

As Xian Xian appeared, "Awoo, awoo," it joyfully rubbed against Zhongshan's legs.

Then it looked at Zhongshan with big eyes, full of surprise. Just now, Xian Xian was in the Longevity Hall of the Great Dong Kingdom. At this moment, it stood in a strange place. Two Zhongshans? But they both had the same aura, the same Zhongshan?

When Zhongshan told her that he had two bodies, Xian Xian didn't believe it. Now it was true, there were really two of him. It was too magical, too unbelievable.

Xian Xian was excited, looking at Zhongshan with great joy.

"Awoo, awoo..."

In the valley, all the fire wolves suddenly widened their eyes, then "awoo, awoo" and all of them knelt down.

All the wolves in the valley, without exception, knelt down, without any resistance.

Even Xiao Yan under Liu Wushuang's feet also knelt down.

Liu Wushuang stared at Zhongshan in astonishment, then at the little wolf summoned by Zhongshan. What was the origin of this little wolf?

This was also a feeling between bloodlines. As soon as the most fundamental bloodline appeared, all the wolves sensed its identity.

Young Master! The Young Master has arrived!

"Indeed, this is the 'Central Secret' left for you to cultivate by that immortal." Zhongshan said directly.

Bao'er looked at the jade slip, then at Zhongshan, and gently said, "Master, do you think I should practice it?"

Looking at Bao'er, Zhongshan smiled slightly, shaking his head and said, "As long as I can protect you, try not to practice it. Who knows what tricks she has put in there?"

"Okay!" Bao'er nodded obediently.

"Don't worry, in the future, I will find stronger techniques for you, and never let you down." Zhongshan said.

"Yes, I believe in you!" Bao'er replied gently.

Meanwhile, Xian Xian stood aside, blinking its eyes as if studying the sentiments between the two.

Putting away the 'Central Secret', Zhongshan smiled at Xian Xian and said, "Xian Xian, thanks to you this time. So, what wishes do you have that you want to fulfill?" —

In the hall of Yuheng Sect.

Zhongshan, Ada, and Nian Youyou were sitting, chatting over tea.

"Sir, how was your trip to the Zhihuo Mountain Range?" Ada asked.

"Yeah, and why did you ask Ada to keep an eye on me? Do you have some secret?" Nian Youyou said discontentedly.

"I went to persuade the Zhihuo Wolf General, and it's only natural that one person should appear more sincere." Zhongshan sipped his tea and smiled.

"Oh? Did you succeed, sir?" Ada asked eagerly.

"Of course!" Zhongshan chuckled.

"But wait, how could Zhihuo agree to be your mount? Last time, it ran away. Did you really manage to persuade it this time?" Nian Youyou looked incredulous.

"Soon, it'll be done. It won't be long before the Zhihuo Wolf General brings the wolves of the Zhihuo Mountain Range to join us. Once we gather, we'll immediately return to Wushuang City." Zhongshan said.

"And it's bringing the wolf pack too? What benefits did you offer them? How did you manage to bribe so many wolves?" Nian Youyou still didn't believe.

Just then, outside the hall.

"Sir, sir, something's wrong!" came the voice of Liu Suifeng.

"What's wrong?" Zhongshan looked at Liu Suifeng as he entered.

"Wolves, there are wolves attacking again. Now, outside Yuheng Sect, there are many wolves, more and more. Could something have happened to Wushuang?" Liu Suifeng looked worried.

"Master Liu, rest assured, everything's fine. I sent Wushuang to handle something. As for this group of wolves, I summoned them here. Don't worry, it won't take long before I take them away." Zhongshan smiled.

"Oh." Master Liu still seemed somewhat skeptical.

However, Nian Youyou and Ada looked at Zhongshan in surprise, with Nian Youyou even hurrying out to see the wolf pack.

"Sir, did you really summon the wolf pack? How many are there?" Ada asked excitedly.

"How many? I'm not sure, but it should be all the demon wolves of the Zhihuo Mountain Range." Zhongshan chuckled.

"All of them?" Ada's face twitched strangely. Did the Zhihuo Wolf General really show such loyalty? Did they all come to pledge allegiance?
