Chapter 147
Her eyes that were black like ink flickered with coldness. Baili Hongzhuang’s voice was icy and calm.
“Somebody was definitely behind this .”
It was nearly impossible that she made a low level mistake like provoking a group of h.e.l.l wolves, so a third party was the only possible explanation.
Little Black frowned, “But n.o.body competing in the hunting compet.i.tion has the ability to do such a thing ah.”
The strongest competing cultivators’ cultivation was only at mysterious eon intermediate stage. Wanting to use the h.e.l.l wolves’ king for themselves was nearly impossible for them.
Baili Hongzhuang’s lips curled into a dark smile, “There’s no way a competing cultivator did this. It must be someone else.”
“You mean……” Little Black’s fluff raised. Its heart also harbored the same suspicions.
“Right.”
One man and two beasts fell into silence, their hearts already certain.
The next day. The sky bright, Baili Hongzhuang opened her eyes. After a night’s rest, her condition was restored by more than half.
“Its finally the last day. Today we’ll look for the storm wolf!” Baili Hongzhuang narrowed her eyes, speaking slowly.
Little Black and Little White smiled confidently. Now that Master came out, first place would definitely belong to Master!
After searching for two days without even finding a trace of the storm wolf, Baili Hongzhuang had roughly narrowed down its location. Now, she didn’t heisitate to set out.
Only a white figure could be seen, flying from tree to tree. She was calm and graceful, as if she was traveling on flat ground. The thistles and thorns didn’t seem to affect her at all.
The hunting field’s air became tense. Today was the last day. All of their results will be announced.
In other words, today was everybody’s last chance.
But while the cultivators were desperately searching for the storm wolf in the hunting grounds, the mood outside was filled with shock.
Xuanyuan Yutian and the chancellors listened to the imperial guard reporting the news in the hunting grounds, astonishment on all their faces.
“Last night….. Chen w.a.n.gfei was surrounded by a flock of h.e.l.l wolves?” Xuanyuan Yutian asked.
The imperial guard immediately nodded his head, “Right. Chen w.a.n.gfei was encircled within a group of h.e.l.l wolves alone.”
Xuanyuan Yutan’s heart dropped. For the past two days, he had been searching for information on Dibei Chen. Although he didn’t get an exact answer yet, he was certain Dibei Chen would go back to fight for himself.
For these 3 years, although he didn’t treat Dibei Chen badly, he also had been very apprehensive about his so-called talent.
In fact, he actually never thought Dibei Chen would ever return to office after living as a hermit on Mount Dongshan (fig. To make a comeback). But now, what he had thought was impossible had now happened!
He knew about Dibei Chen’s former ident.i.ty. Once Dibei Chen took everything back, his status would undergo an earth-shaking change.
Baili Hongzhuang was Dibei Chen’s Chen w.a.n.gfei. If she got into an accident, one can easily imagine Dibei Chen’s reaction.
When Baili Zhentao, Su Wanjing, and Baili Haoxuan heard the news, their eyes couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ne with happiness.
Because of Baili Hongzhuang’s existance, it could even be said that their general’s household had lost the most face it had ever lost before. Now that Baili Hongzhuang was dead, they could only rejoice over her misfortune.
That trash that only brought shame to their family never should’ve been born in this world!
As the imperial guard looked at everybody’s faces change, his own expression also turned a little strange. He still wasn’t done speaking, ah……
“Reporting back to the Emperor, my report still hasn’t finished.”
Xuanyuan Yutian frowned, “What more?”
He didn’t care about anything else that happened in the hunting fields, his mind full of ways to tell Dibei Chen about Baili Hongzhuang’s death.
“Chen w.a.n.gfei killed the h.e.l.l wolves’ king alone by her own power, scaring the rest of the h.e.l.l wolves away.”
