The man hiding in the darkness wore an expression of excruciating pain.
He felt as if a fire blazed fiercely within his body, and worse, it burned inside, beyond his control, leaving him helpless.
“Wolf pack! Attack!”
With no other options, he urgently commanded the wolves to take Xu Fei down.
If Xu Fei, the one casting the technique, died, it would mean his own salvation, or so he reasoned.
But that was wishful thinking.
Xu Fei would never give him such an opportunity.
Had Xu Fei not been conserving his true qi and yang energy, he would’ve kept his dual-layer protection active the entire time.
Now, seeing the wolves raise their heads to howl, he knew the enemy was preparing to fight to the death.
“Fight to the death? Only a fool would pick such a pointless option!”
With victory in his grasp, Xu Fei had no intention of risking his life against this shadowy figure.
Before the wolves could pounce, he instantly activated his dual-layer protection.
Since entering this underground palace from the secret chamber, Xu Fei had used this method several times.
Each time, he grew more adept, his skill increasingly refined.
“Excellent! Soon I’ll be free from this unbearable torment!”
The figure lurking in the darkness kept his eyes fixed on the scene.
When he saw his wolves leap high, baring their bloodthirsty maws and charging at Xu Fei, who seemed unfazed, he grew excited.
He assumed Xu Fei was caught off guard by the suddenness of the attack, too slow to react.
But the next moment left him dumbfounded.
At the same time, three white wolves bit down, yet Xu Fei, under siege, remained unscathed.
Instead, the wolves, the instant they attacked, began to wail, collapsing and convulsing on the ground!
“This… how is this possible?”
The beast tamer in the darkness was stunned by the shocking scene.
When the wolves bit down, it was as if they’d struck an invisible wall, shattering their teeth!
Several others that lunged with sharp claws met the same fate.
Now, the wolf pack lay howling on the ground, their mouths and claws a bloody, mangled mess.
“Damn it! There… there has to be another way!”
The tamer felt the fire within him burning hotter, on the verge of overwhelming him.
Just as he prepared to issue new commands, directing other controlled beasts to attack Xu Fei, he could no longer hold on.
His vision blackened, his head tilted, and he fainted, tumbling from the darkness.
Thud!
Hearing the sound, Xu Fei rushed over without hesitation.
He glanced at the unconscious man, noting the distinct R-country style of his attire.
