Chapter 2844: Chapter 2845: The Wolf Soul’s Choice
The boy’s gaze became firm, and he said word by word, "Xiaohui isn’t dead, it’s just accompanying me in a different way."
The Turkic man nodded with satisfaction and patted the boy’s shoulder, saying, "From now on, you’re a man of the Grasslands, and you’ll be the next Khan."
Unfortunately, the current Khan of the Turkic is someone else; he is merely King Qing’an.
Bai Ruozhu sneered internally, killing the wolf you’ve raised since childhood, did you ask if the wolf was willing? Saying it’s accompanying you in a different way is clearly a selfish imprisonment; the wolf’s soul cannot rest even in death!
She gestured to Xiaohei, signaling it to deal with that Wolf Head Phantom while she took the opportunity to eliminate King Qing’an.
Xiaohei sprang forward, and King Qing’an fell into the Illusory Realm, but the Wolf Head Phantom was unaffected and indeed emerged.
At this moment, King Qing’an furrowed his eyebrows, obviously he had received a hint and was about to wake up from the Illusory Realm!
Diao Shengyan dared not delay, waving the Dagger viciously toward King Qing’an’s throat.
The Wolf Head Phantom roared angrily, suddenly knocking Xiaohei away, biting into Diao Shengyan’s arm, but the knife still sliced open King Qing’an’s throat, causing blood to spurt out, splattering over Diao Shengyan’s face.
Diao Shengyan screamed in pain, that Wolf Head is clearly a phantom, how can it hurt so much?
She looked at her arm; there were no bloodstains, but a black hole from a wolf’s bite appeared, the deepest part exposed the bone and was surrounded by a little black Qi.
Jiang Yichun rushed out of the horse carriage, "Ruozhu, you’re injured?"
She couldn’t dodge earlier and now covered in blood, looked like she was injured.
"It’s okay, it’s not my blood." She said in pain, her voice trembling, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Jiang Yichun’s heart tightened and hurriedly rushed over.
At this time, King Qing’an fell noisily to the ground, already breathless. Unexpectedly, a wolf shadow darted out, fiercely attacking Bai Ruozhu.
Xiaohei roared and dashed forward to block its attack.
"King Qing’an is dead, what will happen to it?" Bai Ruozhu asked Xiaohei.
While fighting, Xiaohei communicated with her, "I don’t know, it says it wants to avenge its master."
The wolf phantom no longer attacks crazily, but confronts Xiaohei, Bai Ruozhu can understand Xiaohei’s words, and quickly perceives the wolf phantom’s intent.
"Fool, a master is your enemy who killed you, are you enslaved to stupidity?" Xiaohei said.
"You recognized a master too, who exactly is the slave?" the wolf phantom said.
"My master treats me like a friend, who will risk everything to save me, and provide me the best food for making armor, but your master only exploits you." Xiaohei proudly lifted its head.
The wolf phantom roared, "I was raised by him, I must avenge him."
"Have you forgotten that he selfishly killed you to become stronger?" Xiaohei said again.
The wolf phantom fell into contemplation, probably due to the Secret Method, it doesn’t remember everything.
"Even if my master knew the method to refine Beast Souls, he wouldn’t kill me to get stronger. Your master is dead, you’re free now, go where you need to be." Xiaohei said.
"Where should I go? Where can I go?" the wolf phantom grew bewildered.
Bai Ruozhu and the others encountered this Beast Soul matter for the first time, how could they know where the Beast Soul goes after the master dies? Xiaohei knew even less.
"Send it to reincarnation?" Bai Ruozhu thought aloud, when people die they reincarnate, shouldn’t wolves reincarnate too?
Xiaohei relayed this to the wolf phantom, but the wolf phantom didn’t know how to reincarnate, watching Xiaohei for a long time before saying, "I won’t seek revenge on your master, but you must let me dwell inside you, I need a vessel."
Xiaohei quickly looked at Bai Ruozhu to see her response.
"Will it harm your body?" Bai Ruozhu asked, "If you don’t want it, refuse it, don’t feel pressured."
The wolf phantom grew envious, in its memory, its master never asked for its opinion nor considered its body.
Once they battled enemies, it suffered severe trauma, the wolf soul was so faint it almost shattered, if it shattered, it would disappear forever.
But King Qing’an never asked it a word, his mind was only on his big plans.
"It’s okay, master, I think it’s pitiful." Xiaohei said, implying willingness.
"If it won’t harm you and you’re willing, then promise it." Bai Ruozhu said.
Xiaohei hesitated, then looked at the wolf phantom, saying, "Your Wolf Clan is also a proud tribe, you swear not to harm my master, not to secretly attack or ambush her."
"Alright, I swear." The wolf phantom swore as Xiaohei requested, and then Xiaohei nodded, it entered Xiaohei’s body.
Xiaohei suddenly roared, a Wolf Head Phantom appeared atop its head, looking extraordinarily majestic, yet Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but laugh, that phantom recently appeared above King Qing’an’s head, now it’s atop the leopard Xiaohei, the imagery is somewhat comical.
But Xiaohei was clearly stronger now, which was also a benefit for it, and incidentally helped Xiaohui, finally achieving completeness.
After the matter concluded, Bai Ruozhu suddenly collapsed, Jiang Yichun urgently embraced her, lifting her up horizontally, and taking her to the front of the horse carriage.
Xiaohei followed worriedly, asking Xiaohui, "Did you bite her?"
Xiaohui was a little nervous, "I swear it wasn’t intentional earlier, previously when I bit her it wasn’t on purpose."
"How to treat your bites?" Xiaohei asked again.
"I don’t know either." Xiaohui only knew how to kill, never how to save.
Jiang Yichun couldn’t understand what Xiaohei and others were saying, he ordered the capture of the two surviving Turkic men and continued the journey.
After a day, the convoy finally entered Beiyu City, but Bai Ruozhu hadn’t awoken yet.
Xiaohei felt guilty, thinking it failed to stop Xiaohui at the time; otherwise, the master wouldn’t have been bitten.
Xiaohui was also embarrassed, it had bitten quite hard at the time.
Gao Zhou and Chushuang received the news, bringing the children to greet along the road, unexpectedly saw Jiang Yichun but didn’t see Bai Ruozhu dismount, they began to worry.
"Ruozhu is injured, father and mother, please have a look." Jiang Yichun’s face was even paler.
Gao Zhou and Chushuang felt heartache but simultaneously worried for Bai Ruozhu’s safety, they got on the horse carriage and were even more scared seeing Bai Ruozhu’s condition.
"Poisoned? Why is her face so dark?" Gao Zhou asked urgently, but quickly realized who could poison Bai Ruozhu?
"Bitten by a Turkic wolf soul." Jiang Yichun replied.
Gao Zhou didn’t understand this, quickly looked at Chushuang, whose face was solemn saying, "Hurry and bring her home, buy this year’s new Glutinous rice, Vermilion, buy plenty!"
Jiang Yichun immediately sent for someone to do it, while Muyu shouted from the other side, "Master, it’s melted here!"
