Legend of the chosen ones: Beyond Destiny Chapter 1259 - 631: Not Dark Beneath the Lamp (3)

But what's important is not her, but her brother Ji Liu, who was swung at the Wolves like a weapon!

Bang!

Ji Liu didn't even react. His vision blurred, and he felt his head bang against sothing. Yet, the long-standing tacit understanding between the siblings instinctively put him into a reactive state.

It didn't matter where he was or what was happening. Blood Flas spread out like an explosion, and imdiately after, without any blades or weapons, he spread his arms wide, suddenly embraced sothing, grabbed hold of it, and his other hand reached up along it, holding onto a neck without caring whose it was, just holding tight.

The Legion's power burst out, with the sound of bones cracking incessantly.

The Wolves shrank back with an anguished scream. As it forced its way out, another flash of Fei Guang appeared before it again. When it wanted to dodge, all directions were completely sealed off by telekinesis.

The only way out was to face it head-on and take this...

Bang!

Fei Guang pierced the forehead, and the severely injured Wolf went completely berserk.

Unfortunately, before it could struggle in death, it couldn't move anymore.

Frozen in place.

As if frozen.

Only on its forehead, the hiltless Bone Knife buzzed.

The second Fei Guang used as its projectile the masterpiece from Ji Jue, Bone Knife Compassion!

And only now did the chaos in the carriage finally spread.

Screams and shouts were belated.

After all, cooperation was rare, and there was no tacit understanding like with Tong Shan and the others, nor did anyone react in ti that among their companions, a Wolf had snuck in.

The mont of perception, there were too few who reacted without hesitation.

More were hesitant, even fearing if this was a sign of rebellion, wanting to escape.

Now, with the situation clear, fear and cold sweat finally surfaced.

"It's He Li?!"

The first one to identify the Wolf's disguise couldn't believe it, widening his eyes: "No, where's He Li?! He was always beside , when... Brother Shan, trust , I, I really..."

The more he spoke, the more terrified he beca.

Because in the earlier scuffle, he was even saved by him once!

"Stay calm, don't panic."

Tong Shan patted his shoulder, with no shadow of doubt: "If I really suspected you, how could I dare be this close? Don't want my neck?"

Just like that, they skillfully tidied up the ss and comforted their subordinates.

The Wolf's disguise was truly over standard, especially since this old Wolf had been scheming for so many years, each one more crafty than the last.

Soon, after inspection, everyone was cleared of suspicion.

But the atmosphere within the team was quite stifled.

After all, an inexplicable Wolf snuck in, who could take it? Could there be a second one? A third one?

Even, when did this Wolf... sneak in?

From start to finish, no one noticed!

In any case, counting the one who died of poison in the encounter before, the second death in the Vanguard Team was now confird.

"Really bold."

Ji Jue lowered his gaze, ridiculing the terrified, stiff and struggling Wolf: "Playing tricks under my nose?"

"It really was."

An Ning was depressed after checking, how did she not notice first?

But after the battle with the Wolf Pack, everyone more or less carried so scent. To really distinguish, it would an poking each one with Fei Guang...

"Ji Jue, how did you notice?" She couldn't believe it, an Ember being more perceptive than the White Deer's Hunter? Wasn't there so mistake?

"We craftsn have our techniques."

In the Forest Country's resonance and perception, Ji Jue, who saw all 'similar' auras clearly, answered without thinking.

But imdiately after, he noticed sothing amiss.

The Wolf before him, its aura was visibly fading...

When Ji Jue reached out, he sensed a great rupture in its soul, the Wolf Blood Oath under self-destruction, even bringing down consciousness and soul.

Within the Bone Knife's restraint, it actually succeeded in killing itself?

No, not suicide, but sacrifice.

Sacrificing its soul and consciousness willingly to the entire Forest Country, thus attaining the obliteration and death of consciousness.

This decisiveness left Ji Jue montarily astonished.

He only had ti to quickly withdraw the Bone Knife before the consequences of the soul's destruction spread to the body, to prevent the loss of the knife's spiritual essence due to the Wolf's death.

After all, in his understanding, Wolves liked nothing more than a death struggle, even on the brink of death they would resist with all their might, delaying, even if it ant making a fool of themselves.

Could sothing that beca a Wolf really have any virtuous heroic qualities?

Yet at this mont, Ji Jue actually saw in its eyes, in that last glimr, a sense of relief and gratitude.

As if death was preferable, rather than accidentally revealing sothing while alive...

Ji Jue was bewildered, "Is the Wolf Lord's intimidation really that terrifying?"

"The Wolf in the Heart is this way."

An Ning shrugged: "The Wolf Blood Oath's control over Wolves is absolute; the Wolf Lord needs only one thought to make the Wolves wish they were dead, even stripping their souls and lives.

The Mountain Wolf's tough resilience bears so chance of interrogation, the Wolf in the Heart, if it offends even slightly, dying would be considered rciful by the Wolf Lord."

During the conversation, Ji Jue contemplated for a mont, then forcibly used solid alchemy to halt the body's necrosis.

Then, he pulled out a dissection knife, slicing open the Wolf's belly, extracting the stomach sac.

The sour and putrid stench imdiately spread.

Frowningly.

Ji Jue distinguished the charred at and grain residue within, his expression subtly changing.

Tong Shan, upon looking over, also grew a bit more solemn from his original calm deanor.

In a brief mont, the two exchanged a knowing glance, saying nothing, and before anyone else saw, Ji Jue incinerated the remaining tissue and Wolf with a fiery burst.

"The hidden threat is already resolved, rest assured."

Tong Shan's steady smile dispersed the final shadows: "In the upcoming operations, everyone must be extra cautious, no more solo actions."

Feigning ignorance of the fact that inside the Wolf's stomach lay the sa lunch as everyone else's...

Just like that, they tossed the insignificant questions to the back of their minds, as the convoy continued forward.

Venturing into deeper darkness.
