Chapter 166: Chapter 35 Is he a sage or... a fool? _3

"Damn, it’s always what you’re afraid of that happens!" Xiao Jie hastily reined in his horse.

The Foolish Taoist, however, continued to run forward, screaming as he ran, "Don’t catch me, don’t catch me."

Several Wolf Soldiers, who were searching through the goods, were startled by the noise. Seeing a human, they immediately pounced towards him.

Xiao Jie, filled with anticipation, watched the Wolf Soldiers rush towards the Taoist, thinking to himself that this fellow must be a hidden expert. No matter how much he had pretended before, now he would have to see how he could continue his act.

Perhaps he would use a Big Move to take down everyone in one fell swoop, proving his own conjecture, and then he could go up and ask to be taught.

Thinking to himself, should he rush up and pretend to protect the Taoist? Maybe this was some kind of test?

But, glancing at the number of Wolf Demons, he decisively didn’t dare to try.

Maybe he should just shout a warning to at least show that he had the intention to help.

"Daoist, be careful!"

The next second, he heard a scream; the Foolish Taoist was chopped to the ground by a Sword and Shield Wolf Soldier and then stabbed by a Long Spear Wolf Soldier, dying instantly.

Uh... he died just like that? Xiao Jie was momentarily astonished, thinking that this guy really was just a meaningless NPC?

However, what was more deadly was that upon the Foolish Taoist’s death, several Wolf Demons all turned to look their way.

It’s over, that shout had successfully attracted their attention.

At that moment, those Wolf Demons were already charging towards them.

"Run!" The two spurred their horses and fled.

Mang Changya (Wolf Essence Captain): "It’s the returnees, catch those humans for the king’s banquet, awoo!"

At the sound of a howl, the wolves eating the corpses immediately stopped their feast and quickly joined the Wolf Soldiers and Wolf Spirits, flipping onto their wolves, and began a Frenzy chase.

Damn it, they’re actually wolf cavalry!

Xiao Jie muttered, urging Cheng Xian to speed up, "Cheng Xian, speed up!"

He himself wasn’t afraid. By going at full speed, he could definitely shake off the pursuers, but I Want to Be Immortal couldn’t keep up.

Even though I Want to Be Immortal tried desperately to accelerate, the pursuers were still drawing closer.

Xiao Jie himself could escape at any time, but doing so would put I Want to Be Immortal in danger.

"Feng, what should we do, what should we do?" I Want to Be Immortal, panicking uncontrollably, even started to cry in his voice.

Xiao Jie said gravely, "Don’t be afraid, I have a plan!"

In the distance ahead, the outline of the desolate village suddenly appeared.

"I’ll draw the monsters’ aggro. Once we get into the village, we’ll split up. I’ll lead the monsters away, and you make your escape."

After saying that, Xiao Jie turned around and shot an arrow.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Xiao Jie kept shooting arrows behind him. Due to the high speed of their flight, even with Steady Shooting, his accuracy was quite poor. After shooting five or six arrows, he only hit three times.

The Wolf Soldiers that were hit all bared their teeth at him, clearly all the hatred was focused on him.

Xiao Jie deliberately slowed his horse, falling behind I Want to Be Immortal by a body’s length.

Seeing the Wolf Essence Captain slowly closing the distance, with a Continuous Arrow move, he fired four arrows in a row.

Whoosh whoosh thump thump! Out of those four arrows, only two hit the Wolf Essence Captain, but that was enough. With a howl from Mang Changya, the entire wolf pack immediately chased after Xiao Jie.

"Now—turn!" By this time, the two had already rushed into the desolate village, I Want to Be Immortal turned his horse’s head and rushed towards the southern fork.

Xiao Jie, however, continued forward, still shooting arrows.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh thump!

Unfortunately, the accuracy was too low, and these Wolf Spirits kept changing their positions while running, making it hard to consistently hit one. Firing all the arrows in his quiver wouldn’t kill many, and Xiao Jie had no illusions of being able to kite these Wolf Demons to death. Leading the wolf pack for a few miles, he guessed that I Want to Be Immortal must be safe by now. Xiao Jie suddenly accelerated, quickly pulling away.

The Wolf Essence Captain, howling angrily, could do nothing but watch helplessly as Xiao Jie got away.

Only when Xiao Jie could no longer see any Wolf Demons behind him did he slow down and come to a stop.
