This was Bai Xiao's promise to all the surviving werewolves after becoming the leader of the werewolf pack, and it was also his promise to the previous werewolf leader...

Side Story [Hades Chapter]: You Yuan – The Leading Heroine Makes Her Debut!

After becoming the leader of the wolf clan, Bai Xiao did not disappoint his people's expectations, leading them to fight against the enemy brought by the traitor on the glacier.

Taking advantage of the harsh environment for the enemy, the werewolf clan's familiarity with the glacial terrain, and a relatively correct tactical arrangement.

With the tactical strategy of retreating when the enemy advances, advancing when the enemy retreats, attacking when the enemy is exhausted, and harassing when the enemy camps, the wolf clan ultimately survived the crisis and even killed the traitor.

This defeat in the war deterred other enemy races from entering the glacier for the time being. They stationed more patrol soldiers at the glacier's edge, intending to firmly lock down the wolf clan within the glacier...

This gave the wolf pack a considerable amount of breathing space.

During this respite, White Owl led the wolf clan to establish multiple reconnaissance fortresses and camps on the glacier and snowfield, for rapid relocation in case of the next enemy advance.

Time passed slowly as the two sides remained deadlocked. During this time, the wolf clan made no move, which led the other tribes that were besieging them to gradually lower their guard and withdraw their troops stationed on the border.

When the enemy is off guard, that is the best time for him, like a wolf, to tear apart and kill them in one blow.

Bai Xiao hadn't forgotten the arrow that killed the wolf clan's leader, and neither had the entire wolf clan...

They want revenge...

That day, Bai Xiao led a small wolf squad through the glacier with a map and entered the grassland under cover of darkness.

This is a very risky move...

This was also a source of inner demons for Bai Xiao; it was his impulsive actions that led to him being hunted down by the monkey clan...

But the inner demons must eventually be overcome.

Ultimately, they too must make the monkeys pay for the blood debt owed to the wolf clan leader and his brothers who followed him...

Under the cover of night, the monkey camp was very quiet. It was late at night, the time when the guards were most relaxed.

Bai Xiao silently eliminated the patrolling guards and sneaked into the monkey camp where he had fired the arrows, then killed the monkey leader.

Decapitation strike...

Who could have imagined that the wolf clan, whom they thought were too cowardly to come out, would inflict such heavy retaliation on the monkey clan at this crucial moment...

Without a doubt, the decapitation operation was a success. When the monkeys awoke from their slumber, they found their leader hanging upside down from a pillar in the camp, with the four large characters "Blood for Blood" drawn in blood below him...

This scene instilled unspeakable fear in the monkey tribe...

While they began investigating who had done it, Bai Xiao and his team had already returned to the glacier...

Back at camp, the squad shared their joy of victory with their people, greatly boosting the morale of the wolf clan...

Perhaps after the monkey tribe finally discovered that the wolf tribe was responsible for their leader's death, another anti-wolf army, composed of several tribes, arrived on the glacier, attempting to once again attack the wolf tribe.

Don't say...

Regardless of any other conflicts among these races, they were remarkably united when it came to the campaign against the wolf clan...

This is understandable; they fear the wolf pack.

After all, tens of thousands of years ago, the wolf clan was the strongest race in this land. However, they were later resisted by other races, and the decline of the wolf clan's leader ultimately led to the wolf clan's current decline.

It was because of this fear that they preferred to send more troops to besiege the wolf clan several times rather than see the wolf clan rise again...

Perhaps this is the law of nature: the strong live and the weak die. If you don't want to be eliminated, you can only keep getting stronger and suppressing the weak.

The result was, of course, fruitless. Bai Xiao had made ample preparations to resist and minimize the losses.

After the enemy retreated, the werewolves began to clean up the battlefield and repair their fortifications. They gathered the fallen werewolves on a relatively flat glacial snowfield and buried them one by one, as instructed by White Owl.

On this snowy plain, many wolf clansmen, young and old, have been buried since the time of the original wolf chieftain...

While cleaning up the battlefield, the werewolves found a woman lying in the snow, barely alive and on the verge of death. They took her to a temporary storage point to await Bai Xiao's disposal.

As the temperature rose slightly, the woman gradually regained consciousness. Looking at the handsome man with a slightly domineering aura in front of her, she instinctively shivered and felt a sense of fear.

She recognized the man before her; on the wanted poster, he was Bai Xiao, the newly appointed leader of the wolf clan.

"Have some water."

Bai Xiao tossed the kettle to the woman.

Bai Xiao was quite cautious about the woman in front of him. Although she looked frail, he checked her and found no tracking devices.

Perhaps she was really thirsty, because the woman picked up the water bottle and gulped down several large mouthfuls, then wiped the water stains from her mouth.

“If I remember correctly… you should be from the Kite Bird clan, right?” Bai Xiao asked.

"..." The woman glanced at Bai Xiao but didn't say anything.

She was very beautiful, petite and delicate, with a delicate and pitiful appearance, especially her pair of peach blossom eyes, which seemed to look at everyone with deep affection.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Bai Xiao continued, "If I remember correctly, the Kite Bird Clan also participated in the siege of my Wolf Clan this time, right?"

"..."

The woman remained silent, simply lowering her head.

Seeing her actions, Bai Xiao raised an eyebrow, then drew his long sword: "Well... since she's mute, there's no point in keeping her around..."

Seemingly seeing Bai Xiao's fierce appearance, she slowly raised her head, her eyes brimming with misty tears.

"I'm sorry... I apologize to you on behalf of the Kite Bird Clan."

Her voice was beautiful, with the melodious sound of a celestial bird...

"Oh, you're not mute. What's your name?" Bai Xiao wiped the blood-stained knife in his hand and asked casually.

Just because someone is mute doesn't mean they have any intelligence value...

"You...You Yuan." The woman seemed to be frightened by Bai Xiao's imposing manner, and tears welled up in her eyes before streaming down her cheeks.

really...

What they said is true.

The leaders of the wolf pack are all ruthless and vicious men with blood on their hands...

You Yuan felt a chill in her heart, wondering if she would soon die at the hands of this wolf clan leader.

"Youyuan...?"

Bai Xiao repeated it, feeling the name wasn't strong enough...

"How did you end up lying in the snow? Didn't you retreat with your people?"

At this point, You Yuan scratched the back of her head, as if she had suddenly remembered something...

"I've probably been abandoned?" You Yuan sighed and said.

"Abandoned?"

...

P.S.: I'm feeling really unwell. I had a high fever of 39.4 degrees Celsius while writing this, and my whole body aches. Everyone, please take care of yourselves. If possible, avoid being a "sheep" (a term used to describe someone who is overly anxious or insecure), and protect yourselves...

Side Story [Hades Chapter]: Never Abandon, Never Give Up

"Abandoned?"

Bai Xiao raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

“Yes, they think I’m too weak…” You Yuan said, her voice filled with even more dejection.

"A weakling who cannot wield a knife... is unworthy to be a member of the Kiteskin Clan."

White Owl: "..."

"Chief of the Wolf Clan, may I ask you a favor?" You Yuan raised her misty peach blossom eyes and looked at Bai Xiao.

"what?"

"If possible... could you bury me on any high mountain after I die?" You Yuan felt that she could not escape death today, so she made her last request for burial.

"When did I ever say I was going to kill you?"

"Just now... you said that keeping me around wouldn't be of any use to you."

“Hmm… I’ve changed my mind now.” Bai Xiao paused for a moment and continued, “If you tell me where the Kite Bird Clan is stationed and what their troop deployment is, I might spare your life.”

"I don't..."

You Yuan tilted her head, strongly indicating that she couldn't do it; she couldn't sell out her race to save her own life.

"You think you can protect the Iris Clan by not telling me?" Bai Xiao chuckled. "Tell me the location of the Iris Clan, and I'll temporarily spare them..."

"You...You Yuan, you don't want anything to happen to your people, do you?"

Youyuan: "..."

...

You Yuan ultimately did not betray the Yuan Bird Clan, and was thus easily imprisoned by Bai Xiao. Bai Xiao also sent people to investigate the identity of this little Yuan Bird, but found that it had no identity and was just an ordinary member of the Yuan Bird Clan. It was almost impossible to use it for a transaction with the Yuan Bird Clan.

When Bai Xiao realized that You Yuan was of no value, he frankly admitted that he intended to kill her. However, on the very day he was about to kill her, he discovered that You Yuan possessed medical skills and healed a wounded member of the wolf clan.

Um...

This makes it necessary for Youyuan to remain alive for the time being.

In the days that followed, Bai Xiao had You Yuan treat the wounded wolf soldiers in the wolf clan's camp. He wasn't worried that You Yuan would run away; on this glacier, it was generally difficult to find one without a guide...

And so, Youyuan stayed with the wolf clan for longer and longer periods of time, and the wolf clan members gradually accepted this "little kite bird." In addition to being beautiful and skilled in medicine, Youyuan could also sing. Her singing voice seemed to have a kind of magic, able to soothe emotions and allow people to temporarily forget their pain.

Sometimes, Bai Xiao wondered why the Kite Bird Clan would abandon someone with medical skills, since a healer plays a crucial role in a war team and can greatly reduce casualties.

Later, after learning more about the Iris Bird clan from You Yuan, he realized that the Iris Bird clan had no shortage of people skilled in medicine...

What they considered a golden bowl was nothing more than a broken stone to the kite bird clan.

That's pretty outrageous.

With her beauty, sweet voice, and excellent medical skills, You Yuan gradually became one with the wolf clan. You Yuan also gradually realized that the wolf clan was not as bloodthirsty and ferocious as rumored. They could also have friendly moments, and they had no intention of persecuting other races.

They just want to find a more suitable habitat...

The rumored newly appointed wolf chief is also a very good person. You Yuan believes that the wolf clan will definitely be able to rise again and will definitely have a way to avoid war and allow the wolf clan to live in harmony with other races on that grassland.

She began searching for this solution...

After hearing her idea, Bai Xiao felt a little dumbfounded. If there really was such a method, wouldn't the former wolf clan leader have done it long ago?

Why let wolves live on the glacier for so long...?

You Yuan explained that this must be because there was no middleman; the wolf clan needed a hub to establish communication with other races, and she was willing to be that hub, that middleman...

She asked Bai Xiao to wait a moment while she went to contact the Iris Bird Clan...

Bai Xiao tried to stop her, but he knew he couldn't. Having spent time with her, he understood how persistent she was; once she made up her mind, she wouldn't easily change it...

Youyuan is gone...

He went to persuade the Kite Bird Clan, posing as a lobbyist.

This departure lasted for several months. During this time, Bai Xiao did not see You Yuan return. When he sent people to inquire about You Yuan's whereabouts, he learned that the Yuan Bird Clan intended to execute You Yuan...

Bai Xiao immediately led the brothers from the elite squad that had previously raided the monkey clan with him to the Kite Bird clan to rescue You Yuan.

After traveling day and night for several days, they finally arrived at the Kite Bird Clan.

During their journey, Bai Xiao was worried that You Yuan would be executed by the Yuan Bird Clan while they were traveling. Now it seems that the Yuan Bird Clan used You Yuan as bait to lure him out of the snowfield.

Upon arriving at the Kite Clan's encampment, Bai Xiao was met with an ambush laid in a trap, and the remorseful You Yuan, bound to a rack, was about to be burned...

Yes.

This is a dead end.

A deadly trap set specifically for him, Bai Xiao.

You Yuan is still too naive.
