Chapter Sixty-Nine: Killing the Wolf King!

While Liu Xuan was speaking, Yang Ye took out the blazing sun gloves from his storage ring and slipped them onto his hands. In the glow of the headlights, Benny watched as Yang Ye donned a pair of black gloves, their design uncannily similar to the ones worn by Grandmaster Ye, and despite the tense atmosphere, he couldn't help but let out a scornful laugh.

Benny harbored a strong dislike for Grandmaster Ye because of Lina.

“Mr. Benny Houston, you and I will take care of the stellar-class wolf beasts. The others, protect the young lady!” Seeing the wolf pack gradually approaching, Liu Xuan frowned as he spoke.

“No problem!” Benny drew two alloy Nepalese kukris from his own storage ring.

Benny came from a cultivation family in America. Young as he was, he had already advanced to the Stellar Realm, and his family had granted him a storage ring.

Yang Ye was clearly ignored by Liu Xuan, who assumed Yang Ye was only a Planetary Realm cultivator. While his driving skills were impressive, Liu Xuan believed Yang Ye was not as strong as his fifteen subordinates.

Yang Ye was more than happy to stay out of the limelight. He walked over to the car where Xia Li sat, opened the trunk, and retrieved a sniper rifle.

The rifle had a caliber of 12.7 millimeters, its bullets specially made, and it was equipped with an infrared scope.

Leaning against the car, Yang Ye chambered a round and used the scope to lock onto a distant red giant wolf—a stellar-class beast.

A sharp crack rang out as Yang Ye pulled the trigger.

At this moment, the wolf king had yet to give the attack command.

The bullet flew hundreds of meters before striking the giant wolf.

As Yang Ye expected, the bullet didn't penetrate the beast's body but ricocheted off, wounding a nearby ordinary black wolf.

“What do you think you're doing? The pack hasn't attacked yet!” Benny snapped when he saw Yang Ye fire.

Yang Ye shot Benny a sidelong glance and replied coolly, “Mind your own business.”

“You—” Benny was about to lose his temper when a distant howl echoed.

Suddenly, the surrounding wolves surged forward like a tide.

“Kill!” Liu Xuan shouted, leaping toward the nearest red giant wolf—a stellar-class beast at the early stage.

Twisting in mid-air, Liu Xuan came crashing down, his fist smashing into the wolf's head.

With a thunderous sound, the wolf's head exploded.

After dispatching the giant wolf, Liu Xuan used the back of a black wolf as a springboard, launching himself at his next target.

Benny now wielded his kukris and plunged into the pack, cutting a swath through the beasts.

The fifteen cultivators surrounding the cars opened fire with machine guns, sweeping the wolves in a hail of bullets.

Black wolves at the front collapsed en masse.

“Xiao Ye, why aren't you helping?” Yang Yu pressed down the car window and frowned at Yang Ye, who was still leaning against the vehicle.

After shooting down a fallen-star-class black wolf, Yang Ye grinned, “Experts always make their entrance last! Besides, none of them think highly of me anyway.”

With that, Yang Ye quickly squeezed the trigger again and again.

Each shot felled another fallen-star-class black wolf, always hitting the fatal spot.

Although the sniper rifle's custom rounds packed a punch, their lethality against wolf beasts above the Planetary Realm was limited.

The wolves soon closed in, and the fifteen guards dropped their guns and drew their blades for close combat.

Inside the car, Xia Li and Yang Yu were so terrified they barely dared to breathe.

As for Lina, though she was a Planetary Realm cultivator, she had little real combat experience. Eyes wide, she watched the battle outside.

Under the headlights, the savagery of the wolf pack and the blood-soaked ground stirred fear in Lina’s heart.

Xia Li glanced at Lina, noting her expression, and recalled Yang Ye’s assessment of her.

She was, indeed, a pampered princess.

Occasionally, a wolf managed to break through the circle of fifteen guards, only to be punched away by Yang Ye—no matter how many came, he struck them down.

Gradually, wolf corpses piled up in a thick ring around the guards.

But this only made things easier for the attacking wolves. Using their fallen comrades as stepping stones, they leapt straight into the defensive circle.

“Fall back! Everyone, retreat ten meters!” After vaporizing over a dozen wolves mid-leap, Yang Ye barked out the command.

His tone carried the authority of a commander; the fifteen men instinctively complied, retreating in unison.

At that moment, Yang Ye sprang forward.

If he delayed any longer, most of these people would be done for.

A hundred meters away, Liu Xuan was beset by several stellar-class wolf beasts, his situation precarious.

On the other side, Benny fought desperately, his body already bearing multiple claw wounds.

Of course, Yang Ye didn't notice Benny's injuries—he simply didn't care about those two.

This wolf pack numbered over five thousand; it was not something a couple of stellar cultivators and a dozen planetary ones could handle.

In the distance, the wolf king howled again and again, commanding its pack.

The stellar-class giant wolves attacking Liu Xuan and Benny were the ones the wolf king had dispatched.

---

The wolf king, possessed of intelligence, knew that the two stellar cultivators were the greatest threat to its pack.

The only way to rout the wolves was to kill the king.

Clearing the circle formed by the fifteen guards, Yang Ye pushed off the ground, his star power erupting, propelling him dozens of meters into the air. Like a meteor falling from the heavens, he streaked toward the wolf king.

In that instant, the aura Yang Ye released blazed like a scorching sun, overwhelming all who sensed it.

Liu Xuan, Benny, and even the distant wolf king were stunned by this formidable presence.

“Who is that?” In the dim light, both Liu Xuan and Benny wondered, though they had no time to look closer as they fought for their lives.

With a heavy crash, Yang Ye landed before the wolf king.

This was a giant wolf five meters long, larger than an ox, its red fur bristling like steel needles, its eyes glowing blood-red with savage light.

A stellar-class beast at the late stage.

As soon as Yang Ye touched down, the wolf king crouched and sprang at him, claws extended, fangs bared.

“Spiral Force!” Yang Ye’s eyes narrowed; he stood his ground and punched at the beast.

A thunderous impact echoed as Yang Ye’s star power slammed into the wolf king, producing a deep, muffled sound.

As the wolf king lunged, its fur and hide, reinforced by star power, became as tough as refined steel. Ordinary stellar cultivators could hardly breach its defenses.

But the wolf king had met Yang Ye.

The fierce spiral force bored into the beast, sending its massive, heavy body flying.

Yang Ye leapt after it, pursuing the wolf king through the air.

Blow after blow, Yang Ye hammered the wolf king’s skull.

By the time its corpse crashed to earth, its brain was pulp.

While airborne, Yang Ye had already seized the beast core from the wolf king’s head, and upon landing, his figure blurred as he rushed toward Liu Xuan.
