Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant-Chapter 362
Xiaolang
Ye Mu pondered, and brought a palm to strike down the tree beside her. Then, she tossed a torch upward. Sure enough, the next second, those worms abandoned them as “heat sources”, and instead crawled toward the huge tree that was burning and set ablaze.
Seeing the lot of worms throwing themselves into the fire, and the air filled with the smell of burning meat, everyone had lingering fear in their heart. Luckily, Ye Mu-xiaojie quickly warned them, otherwise, they would have died!
After all, taking a close look at these centipedes, all of them had red hair and green bodies, so they were definitely extremely poisonous!
Ye Mu sighed. “Looks like they also crawled up from underground, but I don’t know what’s actually happening down there, why is it that we haven’t gone down, but the treasure has started attacking us?”
But the others were more worried about where they would sleep tonight, after all, they had exhausted themselves these few days. If they could not rest well tonight, what would they do the next day?
Until most of the worms had died, Ye Mu said, “Fortunately, these worms didn’t rush to the wounded, so it seems the powder spread around them still has some effect. Let’s do this, we’ll stay with the wounded. The powder is already finished, so we can only squeeze in with them.”
The others had no complaint. Finally, no other troubles emerged, they had passed a daunting yet uninjurious night.
Because they were worried there was something frightful below, and their number now was very small, Mo Linyuan and the others took no action for several days in a row, merely waiting for the large troop to come and discuss a strategy together.
It was another night. Many people were on night duty these two days, afraid that something would be sent out from the underground. When it was late at night, Ye Mu, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly gave out a blood-curdling scream.
“What happened?!”
As soon as the voice sounded, everyone awakened, these few days they did not sleep genuinely. Then, the group on patrol immediately came, only to find a lot of wolves.
Ye Mu sat up. If it was only a wolf pack, she would not be worried. With their kung fu, even if these wild wolves were powerful, it was only a matter of time to kill them.
But she soon could not hold that wishful thinking because, suddenly around them, a lot of green eyes faintly glinted into appearance. Seeing this number, was it only a wolf pack? Could it be that all the wolves from the entire forest came?!
Wolves are clever animals, it seemed they had eyed the group of people for several days, but only today did they realize the onslaught.
And these wolves were much larger than those Ye Mu and the others had seen before, so they were obviously harder to deal with!
Everyone formed a circle, surrounding Ye Mu and Mo Linyuan, but Ye Mu said, “His Majesty has my protection, the dozen of you, go protect our unconscious companions!”
Those people did not dare move, and only stared at Mo Linyuan.
Mo Linyuan also nodded, saying, “Do as she says.”
So the group shifted again. There were still a few remaining with Ye Mu and Mo Linyuan.
When the wolves saw Ye Mu and the rest, they thought the two stood out, and from their keen animal instincts, they felt both of them were most threatening. So, once they attacked, most of them charged toward Ye Mu’s direction!
“Watch out!” Mo Linyuan held Ye Mu back behind him, a hand unsheathing his sword. Despite the many wild beasts around them, he wasn’t in the least fearful. This calm composure also made the others calm.
Ye Mu stuck to his back, smiling lightly. “It’s time to see the result of your training all these years, I’ve never seen you go all out.”
Mo Linyuan slightly curled his lips in a smile. “They are probably not qualified!”
Saying this, both shot out at the same time. The sharp claws of those beasts and the stench that hit directly in their faces were especially vexatious in the dim light of the night.
Once the wolves started attacking, it was a group attack! From all directions, they pounced toward Ye Mu’s group. Ye Mu barely beheaded one when another came pouncing. The beastly instinct that was not scared of death made the smell of blood in the air thicker and thicker.
Suddenly, Ye Mu noticed a wolf charging toward someone beside her through his opening and would snap his neck in a second. So Ye Mu shot out a hand without thinking, poured internal energy into her arm and used it to help him block.
“Careful!” Mo Linyuan went to stab the sneaky wolf with his sword, but he was still a step late, and their attack became unanimous all of a sudden. When there was an opening to squeeze through, they came rushing at them one after another.
But just in this life and death situation! A wolf whistle suddenly rang out among the forest!
It was very resonant, like the roar of the king of the forest, directly piercing through the forest.
The originally violent beasts, after hearing this cry, seemed to freeze, crawling down to their forelegs one after another.
And the wolf that had its mouth open to bite Ye Mu, realized it couldn’t, and quickly jumped down, running toward a direction.
The next second, all around the forest emitted the glows of torches. A person in the very front bent over, half kneeling down. The wolf had run and crawled to the side of his feet.
The person had neat short hair, his eyes were extremely bright in the dark, like a wolf’s.
The others behind him quickly rushed over. Before, it was the wolves that surrounded Mo Linyuan, but now that his people had come, it was the wolves’ turn to be surrounded.
“Alright alright, don’t kill them, okay? I assure they’ll be good and listen.”
After playing with the wolf for a while, a young man’s voice sounded out. Neat snowy-white teeth showed the moment he smiled. Before anyone could respond, he had walked to Ye Mu’s side.
“Long time no see, xiaojie.”
Ye Mu was stunned.
Over the years, everyone called her Ye-xiaojie, there was only one person who would call her xiaojie, and that was Ye Xiaolang*!
*Xiaolang’s Chinese characters is 小狼, which means little wolf
“It’s you!!”
It had been many years. Because Mo Linyuan trusted Ye Xiaolang, after sending him to the army to train, he also let him climb up from the base level step by step. Unexpectedly, this time, Mo Linyuan had sent him over in advance!
Ye Xiaolang also felt sensational seeing Ye Mu. Having not met for many years, he had grown up to be a tall man with a sturdy build. But why is xiaojie still small?
Mo Linyuan cut off his reminiscence and hummed, “Drive away these animals first.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” When Ye Xiaolang faced Mo Linyuan, he was still extremely respectful. Shortly after, a whistle came out from his throat. As soon as the sound came out, the wolves that had wanted to run away after feeling uneasy seeing the huge number of people, as though a ban was lifted, instantly took off at lightning speed, disappearing into the pitch-black forest.
As for the corpses of wolves on the ground, they were cleared away at once. The smell of blood still hovered in the air, but besides forty-five people who were injured, there were no other casualties.
Ye Mu didn’t think Ye Xiaolang had this ability. When she was very small, when she rescued him that time, she had felt there was a semblance of wild nature on him, similar to a wolf. Was it possible that he really could communicate with wolves?
