“Is it this way? Are you sure you picked up the scent of a girl’s perfume?” Mo Fan asked the Flying Creek Snow Wolf.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf nodded confidently.

“Why do I feel like you’re pretty good at picking up the smell of perfume?” Mo Fan cast a side glance at the wolf. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf howled, insisting that he had no interest in humans. He proceeded to tell Mo Fan that he already had a mate in the Summoned Beast Plane, a female wolf with beautiful blue hair...

2They continued searching for other teams under the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s guidance.

It was already the seventh team they had found. If Mo Fan did not have a medicine specifically made by Xinxia that helped Guo Muzhuang to live for another hour, he would be a corpse by now.

There was a stream slowly flowing down the mountain. Liu Xiaojia was the student of a nearby Magic Institution. It was her first time going to the wild for training with her mentor. She was extremely nervous, even though she was only getting some water from a stream not far away from the team.

Normally, it was the men who were responsible for getting water. However, since she was feeling a little guilty for not doing much on the team, she volunteered for the job instead!

“Creatures of Mount Kunyu, please go easy on a little intern like me, please don’t come and find me...” Liu Xiaojia murmured in her heart.

However, as soon as Liu Xiaojia filled up the bucket, she saw a huge head covered in white hair poking out from the bushes, followed by a handsome-looking wolf-like creature with hair as white as snow!

Liu Xiaojia closed her eyes and screamed at the top of her lungs. Her voice echoed through the woods.

The others on the team immediately ran over after hearing the scream.

“Se...senior, help...help me!” Liu Xiaojia was about to burst into tears. She did not even dare to move while facing the enormous white wolf.

“Quick, call the mentor over!” the two boys yelled to alert their mentor. Not long after, a Mage in his fifties showed up.

The man was a little bald, his body covered in a magical glow. He was obviously ready for battle, but he froze as soon as he saw the creature that was approaching Liu Xiaojia!

“Com...Commander-level!” The teacher’s voice began to tremble. It was his first time standing so close to a Commander-level creature!

“Quick, run as far as you can! It’s a Commander-level creature. Split up and run...” the bald teacher turned out to be quite responsible. He gathered his courage to step forward while yelling at his students.

The students were dumbfounded. A Warrior-level creature was already extremely terrifying to them. They never thought they would attract the attention of a Commander-level creature when they just wanted to get some water!

“Don’t panic, it’s fine, he’s my Summoned Beast!...” A young man in a light-colored T-shirt leapt out from the bushes in the nick of time. After briefly explaining things to the group, he kicked the Commander-level creature in the head under the astounded gaze of the others and snapped furiously, “Why the hell are you running so far ahead? You already scared a whole team away last time!”

A Summoned Beast looked very similar to a demon creature. Even though the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was not showing any hostility, its Commander-level aura was still too overwhelming for Mages below the Advanced Level!

Not long after, Zhao Manyan, Lingling, Chen Yi, and Guan Xixi showed up too. They shook their heads helplessly after seeing how terrified the group of students was.

“Off you go, I’ll Summon you out again later!” Mo Fan sent the Flying Creek Snow Wolf back to the Summoned Beast Plane.

He could not understand why the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was so excited. He only asked him to lead the way, not stick his face close to someone. To think such a stupid wolf managed to find a girlfriend!

“Was...was that really your Summoned Beast?” The teacher was wearing a rich expression as he let out a relieved sigh.

“I’m sorry, we are in a rush because someone’s life is in danger.” Mo Fan pointed at Guo Muzhuang on Zhao Manyan’s back and said, “Is there a Healer here? He’s almost at his limit.”

“Liu Xiaojia is a Healer, but I doubt if she can still use her magic, seeing how terrified she is,” one of the boys snickered.

“I can do it!” Liu Xiaojia instantly retorted confidently.

“I’m leaving him in your hands then!” Mo Fan asked Zhao Manyan to place Guo Muzhuang down. He placed some leaves on the ground.

Liu Xiaojia came over. She stared at Mo Fan for some time and finally asked, “Was that your Summoned Beast?”

“Yeah, he’s a Flying Creek Snow Wolf,” Mo Fan said.

“Is your father the Chairman of a Magic Association?” Liu Xiaojia asked.

“Excuse me?” Mo Fan was utterly confused.

“If not, why would you have a Commander-level Summoned Beast? You seem to be around our age. A Commander-level creature can take on around eight Advanced Mages at the same time. Does that mean you’re an Advanced Mage too? You’re so strong, so your father must be someone very impressive,” Liu Xiaojia concluded.

“My father is just a normal person. He’s not a Mage,” Mo Fan was left speechless.

“So are you an Advanced Mage?” Liu Xiaojia asked.

“Yes.”

“Ah, how did you train then? I’ve only reached the Intermediate Level, but you’re already in the Advanced Level. Our teacher is only an Advanced Mage too, but he was asking us to run for our lives just now. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t stand a chance against your Summoned Beast...” Liu Xiaojia went on.

Mo Fan’s face darkened, “Girl, could you please save this man first?”

Guan Xixi let out a relieved sigh when she saw Guo Muzhuang slowly regaining his vitality.

His life was no longer in danger. He had regained consciousness after the healing eased his pain.

“Am...Am I dead?” Guo Muzhuang glanced around him. His face was filled with surprise when he realized he could now feel his body, except for his lower legs!

He managed to survive!

Guo Muzhuang could not believe it. He looked at Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan...

He thought about his classmates Chen Binbin and Wang Hua, whom he had known for eight years, and Hu Duo, who had completely broken his heart. He then looked at Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan, whom he had just met not long ago. He soon broke into tears while expressing his gratitude to them sobbingly!

“There’s no point thinking about a woman like her. Rest up after you’re back and become stronger!” Mo Fan let out a sigh when he saw the man sobbing. He patted him on the shoulder.

Guo Muzhuang had only ended up in his current state because he was trying to save Hu Duo. It was the main reason why Mo Fan was not willing to just watch him die.

The truth was, the most painful thing to him was not being tortured by the Hillman and losing his lower limbs, but seeing the girl whom he risked his life to save deciding to stick with that timid man just because of his background. Guo Muzhuang even thought it was better for him to die at that moment...

Guo Muzhuang was completely disappointed with his friends in just a few days’ time.

“You guys saw a Hillman?” the teacher asked curiously.

“Right! Guo Muzhuang, what happened back then? Tell us,” Mo Fan said.

Guo Muzhuang trembled in fear as he recalled the incident that had happened recently. However, he still managed to gather his courage to tell everyone the tragedy, “Shounan and I followed the sound. We felt like Hu Duo was very close to us, but four human-like creatures with fangs like wild boars showed up. They grabbed Shounan first, tore his arms off, and ate them...”

Some of the students could not bear hearing any more.

“You’re saying that they didn’t kill Shounan right away, but tore off his limbs when he was still alive? They then dug out his organs... when he was still alive too?” Mo Fan repeated.

Guo Muzhuang’s face was covered in blue veins. He had been held firmly by another Hillman. He had watched how the other three Hillmen tortured Shounan to death...

He would never forget the expression on Shounan’s face when he was breathing his last breath!

“Tearing off their limbs and torturing them to death... I’ve always heard how brutal these Hillmen are, but I never thought they would be this brutal!” Lingling said furiously.

“It’s very rare to see such cruel demon creatures. Even though it is common for demon creatures to feed on humans, most of them either kill the people first or just swallow them right away... These Hillmen seems to be familiar with our body structure. They will purposely avoid the vital organs and slowly torture their prey to death. They will even eat your limbs and organs right in front of you,” Mo Fan murmured.

The way the Hillmen treated their prey was totally unacceptable. The people were already spooked after listening to Guo Muzhuang’s description. They could not imagine how terrifying it would be to witness it happening in person!

“Those things should all go to Hell!” Lingling said.

“They are extremely cunning. They know some people in a team are stronger, so they will lure them away from the team first to make them more vulnerable... I swear if I get my hands on them, I’ll let them have a piece of the same pain that they like to inflict on their prey!” Mo Fan harrumphed coldly. As someone who liked to use violence against violence, there was no way he was going to go easy on these Hillmen!

“I think it’s better to tell the government as soon as possible. The Hillmen are too dangerous. We don’t even know how many Hunters are going to fall at their hands, considering the number of people that have come for the demon crests. Many of them are too inexperienced. They won’t stand a chance against the Hillmen!” the teacher, Mr. Gao said seriously.

Mr. Gao was furious after learning that they were other people being tortured by the Hillmen while they were speaking!

“We can’t let them do as they please. We must think of a way to lure them out,” Zhao Manyan said thoughtfully.
