“Nuo Na, what’s going on?”
The pure Qi was whistling through the air as they flew through the clouds, which made Lin Feng’s voice hard to hear over the whistling sounds.
“Lin Feng, approximately every hundred years, the fire wolves emerged from the depths of the earth. These wolves were born in a sea of fire and when they are unleashed into the desert, they started a massacre and moved to attack Tianya Haige.”
With the powerful wind hitting her face, it was difficult for Nuo Na to form a sentence. She then added: “Those fire wolves were able to use illusions, the leaders of the Wolves of the Desert are actually all fire wolves that disguised themselves as humans. Since the wolves have already started to emerge, and didn’t immediately attack, it means that they have developed a larger strategy over the past hundred years.”
“So you are telling me that since the wolf king was a fire wolf, it means that there is an army of fire wolves that have been plotting underground? They were not attacking the humans previously because they were preparing something on a larger scale?”
When Lin Feng heard Nuo Na’s explanation, he remained silent for a moment and then continued to question her. He was surprised. The fire wolves came from the depths of the earth… It seemed like the fire Qi that Meng Qing and Lin Feng had sensed wasn’t an illusion.
“Indeed, they were preparing a large-scale strategy, but because they identified them and because the wolves they were using for the plan were killed by you, they will attack while they still have the element of surprise.” Said Nuo Na while nodding. Her hair was messily fluttering through the wind, her forehead was wrinkled and her eyes filled with dread.
An army of fire wolves would soon emerge.
“Fire wolves…” Whispered Lin Feng. He gazed into the distance and saw countless fire wolves emerging from the sand. The wolves varied in size, some were large and other were small, some only had a single tail while others had numerous tails.
“It’s really happening…”
Nuo Na was stupefied and continued: “Lin Feng, we need to hurry, we have to take shelter in Tianya Haige as soon as possible! Each time the wolves emerge, some monstrously strong fire wolves will be leading them. It’s terrifying! The wolves will continue to emerge until the desert is filled with a sea of wolves, and then they will begin their attacks on Tianya Haige.”
“How far is Tianya Haige from here?” Asked Lin Feng.
“About five hundred kilometres.” Replied Nuo Na which shocked Lin Feng. Another five hundred kilometres?!
“It seems like we are going to have to fight with the army of fire wolves.” Said Lin Feng while smiling wryly. Five hundred kilometres… Meng Qing and Lin Feng couldn’t possibly carry Nuo Na over such a long distance. First, they would consume too much pure Qi attempting it, and second they weren’t able to cover that distance, especially while carrying another person.
“Nuo Na, we have broken through to the Xuan Qi layer, but we cannot continuously fly, we need to use pure Qi in order for us to fly. Only cultivators of the Tian Qi layer are able to fly freely through the sky.” Said Lin Feng, then continued: “I have a large number of purity stones but it’s possible that it won’t be enough to reach Tianya Haige…”
