The wind blades sliced through the cobblestone.
The White Wolf King let out three long howls, and the rest of the white wolves gathered around it, glaring at Nash and Lana with
teeth bared.
At that moment, Lana was lying on Nash, her face buried in his neck. As this was no tto enjoy the intimacy, Nash asked in a
low voice, "They're about to launch a full-scale attack. Do we want to take a gamble?"
"A gamble on what?" Lana asked, her voice trembling.
Before Nash could answer, the White Wolf King led the pack and charged toward them.
A determined glint flashed in Nash's eyes as he pushed Lana away. Despite his lack of spiritual power, she was light enough that
he could manage to move her.
Lana looked at Nash in disbelief. Did he just push her out to feed the wolves? Was this his idea of a gamble? By betting that the
wolves would not eat her?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA dozen of the wolves bared their teeth and lunged at Lana. Suddenly, a tremendous force erupted from her body, and they were
crushed. Their teeth and claws were rendered into a bloody mess.
The white wolves convulsed and howled in agony.
Taking advantage of their wounded state, Nash picked up his spear and charged forward to end them. The spear pierced the White
Wolf King's neck, and blood imbued with potent spiritual power cgushing out.
Nash could not help but feel regretful. The blood of spiritual beasts was as effective as thousand-year-old Panax root. However, he
could not use his storage ring, and even if he wanted to collect this blood, it would be difficult.
Recovering from her shock, Lana approached Nash and asked, "What was that energy that surged fromjust now?"
"Well..." Nash hesitated for a moment before replying in a serious tone, "Actually, you're an Esper. Your power manifests in critical
moments and releases the energy within your body to protect you."
"An Esper?" Lana stared at Nash with half-belief. She had a feeling that he might be deceiving her, but she had no evidence.
Nash's expression remained solemn as he continued, "Yes, you probably know that I'm themander of the Celestial Dragon
Squadron. We've quite a few Espers among us, so | have sunderstanding of these things.”
Seeing how serious Nash looked, Lana dismissed her doubts. "When | was two years old, | was in a car accident. My mom was
drivingto a maternity store, and a large truck cstraight at us.
"Just as the truck was about to hit my mom's car, it was suddenly repelled by a surge of energy. Could | have been born with this
power?”
"You remember something from when you were two years old?" Nash was surprised.
"I started remembering things when | was three months old!" Lana's lips curled into a proud smile.
"Amazing!
“Anyway, go back to the shelter first. I'll handle these carcasses," Nash replied absentmindedly, then began to deal with the White
Wolf King's corpse. He was not sure if there were any other fierce beasts on the island.
If beasts at the Mystique Reality Realm or Profound Reality Realm were to appear, he would not be able to handle them even if he
had nine lives.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLana was protected by the Power of Law, so death could not touch her. He was not, though. If he had not relied on Lana’s power
just now, the wolves might have left him in pieces by now.
Nash removed the spearhead and cut open the white wolf's abdomen. However, after searching for a long time, he still could not
find its inner core.
"Do monsters need to cultivate to the Mystique Reality Realm like humans to condense an inner core?" Nash muttered to himself.
He decided to drop hunting monsters in the secret realm for their inner cores.
Lana had taken a seat by the fire. She was holding her knees with her hands as she watched Nash's busy figure. The image of Nash
rolling on the ground with her in his arms floated into her mind.
When it happened, Nash's embrace had felt particularly warm and secure. However, as her master's admonition cto mind, she
immediately cast aside all those thoughts.
After a moment of trance, she took out her phone, opened the writing app, and continued writing the second part of the Fox
Demon Adventures: Dream City.
