Chapter 27
C27 – There Were Some Last Words?
In the foreboding forest, Jiaang Gao and his companions were encircled by ferocious Azure Demonic Wolves, whose low growls reverberated through the trees.
Awoo~
After what seemed like an eternity, one of the Azure Demonic Wolves let out a piercing howl to the sky. With a powerful thrust of its hooves, its massive form lunged forward, aiming to sink its teeth into one of the Jiaang family disciples.
Ah!
The disciple, who had reached Body Refining Level Three, could only scream in terror before the Azure Demonic Wolf clamped down on him, ending his life instantly.
The thick scent of blood swiftly permeated the forest air.
Provoked by the scent, the Azure Demonic Wolves around them unleashed a series of mournful howls.
Without hesitation, they charged, launching themselves at Jiaang Gao, Jiaang Feng, Jiaang Lang, and the rest of the Jiaang family disciples.
Others targeted Nan Wuyan and the other formidable assassins.
Against the savage Azure Demonic Wolves, Jiaang Gao and the other Jiaang family disciples stood little chance.
Screams of agony echoed throughout the forest as more and more disciples fell victim to the wolves’ onslaught, either being brutally bitten to death or torn apart by their razor-sharp claws.
Meanwhile, a few of the assassins led by Nan Wuyan also succumbed to the wolves’ ruthless attacks.
“Don’t panic, stay organized! Let’s work together to fend off the Azure Demonic Wolves!” Nan Wuyan urged, quickly regaining his composure. He summoned his Battle Soul and engaged an Azure Demonic Wolf with his Movement Martial Skill.
His movements were swift and graceful, as elusive as a phantom.
Despite the Azure Demonic Wolf’s cultivation being a level higher, it struggled to overpower him.
Encouraged by Nan Wuyan’s command, the other black-robed assassins steadied themselves, unleashing their Battle Souls. Clutching their sharp daggers, they bravely confronted the frenzied Azure Demonic Wolves, fighting desperately to carve a bloody escape route.
On this side, the black-robed assassins, under Nan Wuyan’s leadership, still possessed the skill to contend with the formidable Azure Demonic Wolves.
On the other side, the situation for the Jiaang family disciples, led by Jiaang Gao, was utterly lopsided. No matter how numerous they were, their strength was futile against the frenzied onslaught of the Azure Demonic Wolves.
“Jiaang Lin, won’t you lend a hand?” Jiaang Gao called out, his face ashen as he watched his fellow disciples fall one by one to the merciless claws and fangs of the Azure Demonic Wolves.
His eyes scanned the battlefield and settled on Jiaang Lin, who stood at a distance, observing the chaos with an indifferent gaze. In their ranks, Jiaang Lin’s prowess was unmatched.
With Jiaang Lin’s intervention, they wouldn’t be suffering such a humiliating defeat at the paws of the Azure Demonic Wolves; they might have even stood a chance to defend themselves. Hence, Jiaang Gao’s desperate plea for assistance.
”Assist? On what grounds? You all conspired to kill me here, so why should I help you?” Jiaang Lin retorted with a cold laugh upon hearing Jiaang Gao’s plea.
”If you refuse to help, you won’t escape either, even if we perish!” Jiaang Lang responded sternly.
“Really? Well, I’m curious to see who will survive in the end,” Jiaang Lin sneered. With those words, he unleashed the Blood Eye Battle Soul. His eyes, once dark, now blazed with a blood-red hue, emanating a sinister and bewitching energy that made one’s soul quiver.
As the Blood Eye Battle Soul activated, the Azure Demonic Wolves encircling Jiaang Gao and the others fell silent. Their once-green eyes now mirrored Jiaang Lin’s blood-red gaze, filled with the same demonic allure.
“Come to me!” Jiaang Lin commanded.
Instantly, the Azure Demonic Wolves he controlled dashed towards him, leaping to surround him, and lay prostrate at his feet, as subjects would before their sovereign.
Witnessing this spectacle, Jiaang Gao, Jiaang Feng, Jiaang Lang, Jiaang Ren, and the rest of the Jiaang family disciples were left utterly speechless.
Faces all around registered sheer disbelief!
In the distance, Nan Wuyan and his companions, who were desperately battling several Azure Demonic Wolves, witnessed the ferocious creatures abruptly cease their assault and dash to Jiaang Lin’s side. They prostrated themselves at his feet with reverent submission, leaving the onlookers utterly astonished and unable to fathom the sight before them.
“How… How is this possible? Could it be that this pack of Azure Demonic Wolves was actually summoned by that young man?”
After a long moment, Nan Wuyan came to his senses, his voice ringing out with a startled cry.
Initially, he had harbored suspicions that the sudden appearance of these Azure Demonic Wolves might be connected to Jiaang Lin.
But upon further reflection, something seemed amiss.
Now, as Nan Wuyan observed the Azure Demonic Wolves kneeling before Jiaang Lin as subjects would before their sovereign, he was truly convinced that this pack had indeed been drawn here by Jiaang Lin!
This revelation left Nan Wuyan both astounded and deeply perplexed. What sort of power did Jiaang Lin possess to command such deference from the Azure Demonic Wolves?
“Do you see? This pack of Azure Demonic Wolves was specifically prepared by yours truly!”
With a sinister and mesmerizing gaze, Jiaang Lin’s Blood Eyes fixed coldly on Jiaang Gao, Jiaang Feng, Jiaang Lang, and Jiaang Ren. A hint of a mischievous smile played at the corner of his mouth.
At his words, Jiaang Gao and the others snapped to attention.
Jiaang Lin — he could actually control the Azure Demonic Wolves!
With that realization, a deeper sense of dread and alarm surged through the hearts of all the Jiaang family disciples.
Simultaneously, they grasped why Jiaang Lin had remained so composed despite being in peril, and why he had boldly declared his intent to annihilate them all!
For someone who could wield control over the Azure Demonic Wolves, dispatching them would be effortless, regardless of Nan Wuyan and his band of assassins.
How ironic that they had earlier scorned Jiaang Lin for his supposed foolishness and boundless arrogance!
Now, it was clear that the true fools were they themselves, not Jiaang Lin.
“Jiaang Lin, we… we’re brothers, aren’t we? Today, we even shared a drink!”
Jiaang Ren, gripped by fear, stared at the indifferent Jiaang Lin, his voice shaking.
He was genuinely terrified now.
He had been so sure his plan to take down Jiaang Lin would work, but everything had spiraled out of control.
Jiaang Ren didn’t want to die!
Desperate, he pleaded with Jiaang Lin, hoping for mercy because of their shared drink earlier.
“Hehe! Weren’t you the one who said that only a ghost would be my brother?”
Jiaang Lin sneered, leaving Jiaang Ren speechless, unable to muster a response, only filled with regret.
”If you want to be my brother, you’ll have to turn into a ghost first. So, die!”
Jiaang Lin’s voice was icy as he spoke.
Next to him, the Azure Demonic Wolf let out a howl and lunged ferociously at Jiaang Ren.
“No!”
Jiaang Ren’s scream was cut short as the Azure Demonic Wolf bit him in half, killing him instantly.
“Brother!”
Jiaang Lang’s eyes nearly burst with rage and sorrow as he watched Jiaang Lin command the Azure Demonic Wolf to kill Jiaang Ren.
His eyes, filled with anger and grief, glared at Jiaang Lin, his face twisted with fury.
“Jiaang Lin, you dare kill my brother!”
Jiaang Lang spat out the words with venom.
“What of it? I’m not just going to kill him; I’m going to kill you too!”
Jiaang Lin responded, his demeanor as serene as a gentle breeze.
The Azure Demonic Wolf, having just killed Jiaang Ren, flashed towards Jiaang Lang in a swift, deadly attack.
A chilling scream echoed as Jiaang Lang was viciously bitten to death by the Azure Demonic Wolf, his body torn in two, his death gruesome.
Witnessing Jiaang Lin command the Azure Demonic Wolf to kill his brothers, Jiaang Ren and Jiaang Lang, the fear within the other Jiaang family disciples intensified, their faces turning even paler.
Many were shaking uncontrollably, some so terrified that they lost control of their bodily functions.
They wanted to flee, but confronted by the menacing presence of the Azure Demonic Wolf, their legs might as well have been rooted to the spot, unresponsive to their desperate commands.
“Jiaang Lin, spare my life. From this day forward, I’ll obey your every command, willing to serve you in any way!” Jiaang Feng pleaded, his last defenses crumbling after witnessing the gruesome deaths of his brothers Jiaang Ren and Jiaang Lang.
His knees buckled, and he fell to the ground, his face a mask of sorrow as he incessantly begged Jiaang Lin for mercy, hoping for a reprieve.
“Alas! Born of the same root, why such haste to destroy each other? We all come from the same family, which is why I never thought to kill any of you before.
But today, nothing can be done. No matter how much you plead, it’s futile!” Jiaang Lin said, shaking his head.
Beside him, the Azure Demonic Wolves let out a chorus of eerie howls.
In an instant, they lunged at Jiaang Feng and the numerous Jiaang family disciples.
Screams echoed, one after another, as the Jiaang family disciples were all savagely killed by the Azure Demonic Wolves. Even Jiaang Feng, who had knelt and begged, was not spared.
Now, only Jiaang Gao remained, standing frozen in terror.
“Do you have any last words? Speak now, or you’ll soon lose the chance!” Jiaang Lin said, echoing the words Jiaang Gao had once said to him.
