Divine Seal: The Shadow Legion, I am the Shadow Lord.

Yun Xuan had a thought, and then a figure completely different from the previous ninja appeared silently from the shadows beside him, kneeling on one knee.

That's a member of the Flying Shadow Legion!

Its appearance is slightly different from the flying shadow in Yunxuan's memory, which is obviously due to the influence of the successor.

It retains its slender and agile humanoid form, but its iconic pair of huge bat wings on its back are particularly eye-catching.

The wing membrane exhibits a strange gradient of shadow color, gradually transitioning from a deep black near the body to a mysterious and noble dark gold towards the wingtip.

The wing bones supporting the wing membrane gleam with a cold, metallic luster.

Its head is more like that of a falcon, and its face is covered with a mask with compound eyes.

Beneath countless fine facets, a sharp, hawk-like white-gold light shines through, as if it can pierce through the clouds and lock onto a distant target.

"Take me up," Yunxuan ordered.

Fei Ying silently got up, then came behind Yun Xuan, hugged him, and suddenly unfurled the pair of huge bat wings that were gradually turning dark gold!

"call--!"

Fei Ying swiftly took Yun Xuan into the air, and in the blink of an eye, they were dozens of meters above the ground.

From this vantage point, Yunxuan's view became much broader.

Seeing this, Li Xin naturally refused to be outdone. She gently patted the rose unicorn, which then carried her behind Yun Xuan.

Looking down from the air, the distribution of the wolf pack, the location of their dens, and even the wolf king, which was noticeably larger, became immediately clear.

Just as most of the wolves below were resting, the wolf king seemed to notice the flying figure in the sky.

It suddenly raised its head and let out a long howl filled with warning and violence!

"Awooo—!!"

In an instant, all the demon wolves sprang up from the ground as if they had heard a military order, and entered a state of high alert.

With fangs bared and a low, threatening growl emanating from their throats, they all raised their heads to look at the uninvited guest in the sky.

However, just as their attention was drawn to the sky, the next second...

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Dozens of dark figures, like ghosts crawling out of hell, emerged without warning from under the wolf pack's feet and from the shadows of the trees beside them!

It was the Ninja Shadow Army that had been scattered and lying in wait!

These ninja shadows were Saint Cai'er's subordinates, skilled in assassination, taking advantage of the perfect opportunity when the demon wolves looked up at the sky, their abdomens and throats completely exposed.

The short swords, kunai, and rapiers formed from shadows in his hands were thrust out with precision and ruthlessness from various tricky angles!

"Pfft!"

"Awooo—!"

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh rang out, followed by a chorus of screams from the demonic wolves!

At least twenty Gale Wolves were killed instantly, either by having their throats slit or their hearts pierced.

The blood instantly stained the ground red.

However, a few dire wolves that reacted quickly or were in slightly off-center positions roared in anger the moment they were attacked.

He then swung his claws and smashed the shadowy ninjas beside him, which instantly turned into a mass of shadows and vanished.

The wolf king reacted with incredible speed, the instant the ninja emerged from its shadow.

It suddenly twisted and leaped away, and the ninja's fatal blow only left a deep, bone-revealing bloodstain on its tough fur, but failed to hit a vital spot.

But their surprise attack had already achieved its objective; the wolf pack was reduced by more than half in an instant, and their formation was thrown into chaos!

In mid-air, Li Xin looked down at the scene below, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise. This was the first time she had truly witnessed the power of the Ghost Shadow Legion.

So many demon wolves were wiped out in an instant.

Li Xin even doubted whether she could completely avoid the assassination attempts of these ninja shadows if she were caught off guard.

The answer is no. Although she was confident she could kill these ninja shadows, it was almost impossible for her to avoid injury.

But the key point is that these ninja shadows are almost infinite in number and are not afraid of death. So what if she can take down hundreds or thousands of them?

Her spiritual power and physical strength will eventually run out!

Just as Li Xin was pondering, Yun Xuan made his move.

Seeing his pack decimated in the blink of an eye, the wolf king was instantly enraged.

His scarlet eyes were almost dripping blood, and he let out a deafening roar.

Just as the Wolf King was enraged, Yun Xuan broke free from Fei Ying's support in mid-air and plummeted like a meteorite!

The fine iron longsword in his hand suddenly shone with a pure and dazzling white light as it fell!

The pure white blade, unleashed at full power!

Using the momentum of his fall, Yun Xuan became one with his sword, and like a divine judgment, he cleaved down towards the wolf king's head!

Although the wolf king was furious, its wild instincts and sense of danger allowed it to dodge to the side at the last second!

Yunxuan's sword grazed the wolf king's shoulder blade and slashed down, carving a deep trench in the ground and sending dirt flying.

Having missed his target, Yun Xuan flashed across the ground the instant he landed, then used the Shadow Step, his footwork suddenly becoming strange and unpredictable!

The next second, his figure appeared like a ghost on the right side of the wolf king, which had been exposed when it dodged!

The fine iron longsword thrust out again, this time, the tip of the sword transformed into dozens of dazzling silver light spots!

The wolf king had just dodged the heavy blow and had not yet fully regained its footing.

Faced with this sudden barrage of stabbing attacks, it could only barely raise its front paws and rely on its powerful body to block!

"Puff puff puff puff...!"

Although most of the thrusts were blocked, several swords still pierced through the wolf king's fur defenses, leaving several bloody holes in its body!

The intense pain caused the wolf king to let out a painful howl.

Just then, a Gale Wolf, which was closest to Yun Xuan and had miraculously survived the first wave of assassinations by the Ninja Shadows, appeared.

Seeing that the wolf king was seriously injured, it suddenly became ferocious and pounced on Yun Xuan's back, its fangs aimed straight for Yun Xuan's neck!

Yunxuan glanced at it, but didn't care about the sneak attack at all, his gaze still fixed on the wolf king.

Just as the demonic wolf was about to pounce on Yunxuan!

"Thump!"

A massive, dark bronze figure, as large as a small mountain, appeared out of nowhere like a high wall, blocking the path between Yun Xuan and the demon wolf!

It was a giant shadow!

Its massive body completely enveloped the charging demonic wolf, its dark red eyes fixed on it.

At the same time, a dark bronze hand, larger than the wolf's head, shot out like lightning and firmly grasped the wolf in its palm!

Immediately, the giant shadow, as if throwing a stone, swung its arm and hurled the demonic wolf in its palm at another companion that was about to pounce from a short distance away!

"Bang!" The two demonic wolves collided, breaking bones and instantly losing their fighting ability.

Yun Xuan's figure flashed again, and the long sword in his hand once again shone with the light of a pure white blade. He delivered a powerful diagonal slash straight towards the wolf king's forelimb joint!

The wolf king roared and raised its claws, its powerful claws whistling as they tore through the air as it fiercely met the attack!

"clang!"

Claws clashed with the blade, sparks flying!

But at the very moment of the collision, Yunxuan's figure blurred again, as if he had melted into a flowing shadow!

A look of human-like shock appeared in the wolf king's eyes.

Immediately, a threat of death enveloped them.

The pure white light on the fine iron longsword in Yunxuan's hand instantly subsided.

The tip of the sword, however, condensed an extreme darkness and sharpness, as if the shadow had transformed into the sharpest fangs!

Shadowfang Thrust! Shadow Knight Tier 2 Skill!

"puff--!"

The longsword pierced the wolf king's neck without any resistance, just like a hot knife through butter!

The wolf king's massive body stiffened abruptly, its crimson pupils dilating instantly, filled with disbelief, terror, and resentment.

Its massive body swayed twice before crashing to the ground, blood gushing from the wound on its neck, staining the ground beneath it red.

The remaining few scattered demon wolves, seeing their leader die tragically, whimpered a few times in terror, then tucked their tails between their legs and fled in panic into the depths of the forest, not daring to look back.

Yunxuan drew his longsword, flicking off the blood droplets from its blade, as if he had just completed a routine training session.

In the air, Li Xin, riding a rose unicorn, slowly descended, looking down at Yun Xuan beside the wolf king's corpse, her pink and blue eyes sparkling with wonder.

In this battle, Yunxuan perfectly combined his personal swordsmanship and skills with the Ghost Shadow Legion's tactical maneuvers.

She had to admit that Yunxuan's strength and combat intelligence had once again broadened her understanding.

"Let's clean up the battlefield, Sister Xin." Yunxuan's voice pulled Li Xin back to reality from her shock.

"The wolf king's fangs and ears should be enough to complete the mission."

After defeating the wolf king and collecting the necessary tokens for the mission, Yunxuan and Li Xin did not linger at the edge of the Black Forest and returned to Haoyue City.
