This bloody scene terrified the other students of Blazing Fire Academy.

At this moment, the most difficult situation is for Huo Wu, the goddess of Blazing Fire Academy, because the wolf she is facing is the leader of this wolf pack.

It's that thousand-year-old wild wolf!

"That's incredible!"

Faced with the attack of this thousand-year-old wild wolf, Huo Wu, filled with utter despair, closed her eyes and awaited death.

They didn't even try to resist.

After all, this wolf is a thousand-year-old wolf, a creature that even a second-ring Soul Master cannot contend with, and only a third-ring Soul Venerable can kill.

She was merely a level 19 Soul Master with only one ring of Soul Power; at most, she could only kill some Soul Beasts that were three or four hundred years old.

How can she fight back against an attack from a thousand-year-old wolf that is comparable to a three-ring Soul Master?

She had absolutely no right to resist!

There is only one way out: death!

Just as Huo Wu slowly closed her eyes, a crystal-clear tear rolled down from the corner of her eye, silently rolling down her fair, jade-like cheek.

She doesn't want to die!

She really didn't want to die!

She's only a teenager, with a long and promising future ahead of her.

However, the wolf that attacked her was a thousand-year-old soul beast, whose strength was extremely powerful and completely surpassed hers.

She has no choice but to die.

"I really don't want to die like this."

"I just hope the wolves won't tear my body apart and will leave me with a whole corpse."

She murmured softly, and Huo Wu awaited her death.

However, she was surprised to find that the extremely sharp claws of the thousand-year-old wolf did not strike her for a long time.

Originally, those incredibly sharp claws would have killed her instantly.

But why is it so late?

"boom!"

Immediately afterwards, Huo Wu, who was somewhat puzzled, suddenly felt a strong force coming from behind her.

Then, it seemed as if a strong arm was embracing her slender waist.

The warmth emanating from that powerful arm made Huo Wu's body, which had been slightly stiff and tense from facing imminent death, feel even more so.

It suddenly became soft.

The next second, the arm wrapped itself around its body and retreated rapidly backward, widening the distance between itself and the thousand-year-old wolf.

Huo Wu suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes.

Then, the scene that came into her view was that of the thousand-year-old wild wolf waving its sharp claws, trying to kill her.

At this moment, however, he seemed to be frozen, standing stiffly not far in front of himself.

The sharp claws that were about to kill him stopped abruptly in mid-air.

Huo Wu could clearly see that the thousand-year-old wolf's gaze was not on her at all at this moment.

Within the ancient wolf's eerie green eyes, a deep sense of dread was constantly surging within them.

It was staring intently behind it.

"Ok?"

Huo Wu slightly parted her luscious red lips.

The next moment, she suddenly turned her head and looked with her eyes, which were faintly glistening with tears, toward the spot behind her.

She wanted to know who had saved her life at the last moment when she was about to be killed by the Thousand-Year Wild Wolf.

Then, Huo Wu could see that behind her, there was a person wearing a black cloak, who was holding her slender waist with a strong and warm arm.

"You are......"

Huo Wu's delicate, poetic eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She couldn't recognize who this person was who had saved her from the clutches of the thousand-year-old wolf at such a critical moment when her life was hanging by a thread.

Because Huo Wu couldn't see what this person looked like at all.

The black cloak he was wearing completely covered his face.

Not only could he not see the face under the black cloak, but even his figure was hidden by the black cloak, making it impossible for Huo Wu to see him.

The only thing Huo Wu could recognize was that the person who saved her life must have been a boy.

"Thank you for saving me."

Looking at the boy in the black cloak, Huo Wu felt a surge of joy that brought her to tears.

Just a second ago, she thought she was going to die.

After all, even a second-ring Grand Soul Master could perish in the face of a powerful attack from a thousand-year-old soul beast.

As for himself, he was merely a one-ring Soul Master, and no matter what, he was no match for the attack of a thousand-year-old Soul Beast.

All that awaited him was death.

Moreover, after she dies, her body will surely be torn apart and devoured by those wolves.

Huo Wu was very clear about this.

However, the next second, just when Huo Wu had already despaired to the point of closing her eyes and waiting for death to come,

This young man in a black cloak appeared out of nowhere, successfully rescuing me from the clutches of the thousand-year-old wild wolf.

At this moment, Huo Wu looked at the boy who had embraced her with somewhat dazed eyes.

She had a strange, inexplicable feeling that the boy in front of her gave her a feeling that she couldn't quite put her finger on.

In the blink of an eye, Huo Wu's previously flustered, fearful, and terrified heart became completely calm and peaceful.

It was as if no matter what kind of danger he was in, as long as this boy stood by his side, nothing could harm him.

This strange feeling in her heart was completely illogical, yet incredibly strong, making Huo Wu believe it without even realizing it.

Is this what people call a sense of security?

"This is the first time I've ever felt this way."

. . . . . . . .

P.S.: I would be extremely grateful for your monthly votes, tips, and recommendations!

Chapter 24

Just as Huo Wu was completely immersed in this sense of security and unable to extricate herself from it.

Suddenly, a long, somewhat immature howl rang out in the deep forest, echoing in everyone's ears.

"It's just a thousand-year-old soul beast, how dare it be so arrogant in front of me?"

The young man, draped in a large black cloak, chuckled softly.

A faint smile played at the corners of his lips.

The boy slowly raised his head.

The pair of dark eyes, hidden by the black cloak, became dazzling at this moment, like stars hanging in the sky.

The young man standing behind Huo Wu, with one arm around her slender waist, was none other than Ye Dongxuan, who had secretly sneaked into the Demon Hunter Forest.

After entering the Demon Hunter Forest, Ye Dongxuan and Xiao Wu searched for traces of the thousand-year-old soul beasts within the forest.

A thousand-year-old soul beast is considered a rather powerful soul beast, and it is not very common in the outer areas of the Soul Hunting Forest.

It was precisely because of this that Ye Dongxuan and Xiao Wu searched for a long time but failed to find any clues about the thousand-year-old soul beast, which made Ye Dongxuan extremely frustrated.

As they walked down a secluded path, Ye Dongxuan and Xiao Wu heard sounds of fighting and loud wolf howls.

Therefore, Ye Dongxuan decided to come and investigate to see if there were any thousand-year-old soul beasts.

When Ye Dongxuan arrived, the scene that greeted his eyes was a pack of dozens of wolves attacking seven people.

All seven of them were wearing the same school uniform, with the words "Blazing Fire" embroidered on the chest of the uniform in a ball of bright red silk thread.

"These people are students of the Blazing Fire Academy."

Upon seeing the seven people's attire, Ye Dongxuan immediately recognized their identities.

And when mentioning Blazing Academy, one cannot help but think of its goddess—

Fire Dance!

Before transmigrating, Ye Dongxuan had been very fond of Huo Wu's genuine personality when he read Douluo Continent, and he really wanted to add Huo Wu to his harem of dozens of goddesses.

"That woman with long, dark red, wavy hair must be Huo Wu."

Ye Dongxuan quickly recognized Huo Wu's identity after his gaze swept over the seven people from Blazing Fire Academy.

After all, Huo Wu's dark red, wavy hair is just too distinctive.

However, this was not the time for Ye Dongxuan to observe in secret.

Because the situation of the students of Blazing Fire Academy at this time is not very optimistic.

Some wolves had even torn a tall man to pieces, leaving blood, bone fragments, and bits of flesh scattered all over the ground.

These wolves are quite strong; they are all over a hundred years old and their strength is comparable to that of a first-ring Soul Master.

What brought Ye Dongxuan some joy was that the alpha wolf of this pack was a thousand-year-old soul beast that he had been searching for.

This thousand-year-old soul beast was about to tear a tall, slender fire dancer to shreds with its sharp claws.

Then, just as the sharp wolf claw was about to tear Huo Wu's body apart, Ye Dongxuan made a powerful move and saved Huo Wu.

"Fortunately, my intervention was timely enough."

"If I had acted even a fraction of a second later, Huo Wu would have met a tragic end."
