Chapter 2172: Chapter 1904: You Asked for It

The stone wall rippled, and Song Yun and He Sui walked out of it one after the other.

Strangely, the One-eyed Demon Wolf was just a short distance away but showed no reaction, simply lying on the ground dozing off as if enjoying a deep sleep.

Logically, the sensitivity of a Foundation Establishment Demon Beast should prevent such a situation from happening.

"This demon beast is quite cunning. It’s pretending not to notice us, worried we might return to the stone wall, and plans to attack once we’ve moved away from it."

Song Yun’s mouth curved into a smile as his gaze flitted to the distance, where He Tiansheng and He Ji were hiding.

"Hmph!"

He scoffed inwardly with disdain, handed the Ice Crystal Holy Grail to He Sui, and said, "You go back inside the stone wall first; I’ll handle the One-eyed Demon Wolf. Trust me, there will be no problem. Wait until I’ve dealt with the Demon Wolf, then you can come out."

"But..."

He Sui wanted to say something, but Song Yun placed his finger on her lips, stopping her. With a smile, he said, "Danger should be faced by men. You just hide behind me."

The sudden assertiveness took He Sui by surprise.

Looking at Song Yun, she felt an indescribable warmth and sense of safety in her heart.

After a moment of silence, she came to her senses, quickly pulled her head back, moved her lips away from Song Yun’s finger, nodded, and said, "Be careful. I’m ready to use talismans at any time."

With those words, she pressed the base stamp of the Ice Crystal Holy Grail onto the carved pattern on the stone wall, and her figure disappeared into the wall.

Seeing this scene, He Tiansheng and He Ji gritted their teeth from afar.

He Tiansheng cursed, "That bastard Song Yun is still trying to play the hero, it’s simply courting death."

He Ji said, "But why isn’t the One-eyed Demon Wolf moving?"

He Tiansheng sneered, "Don’t worry, the One-eyed Demon Wolf is waiting for him to move away from the wall before making a move."

"Sneaky, you two cowards, don’t you dare show yourselves?"

A shout of anger rang out as Song Yun’s deep black eyes turned sharply towards the hiding place of He Tiansheng and He Ji.

Yet, in the wake of such a shout, the One-eyed Demon Wolf still made no move.

Though it had a certain level of intelligence, it was too low. Continuing to feign sleep in this situation was merely covering its ears while stealing a bell, hiding its true intentions.

"Hmph!"

He Ji snorted and was about to reveal himself when He Tiansheng quickly pulled him back, whispering, "Don’t move, wait for the One-eyed Demon Wolf to act."

He Ji nodded, retracting his partially exposed head, and cursed, "Let that bastard Song Yun show off for a while."

"Cowards,"

Song Yun cursed, his body moving towards He Tiansheng and He Ji.

"Awooo!"

As soon as he was far from the stone wall, a ferocious wolf howl echoed, and the pretending-to-sleep One-eyed Demon Wolf leaped up, eyes showing a triumphant glint.

It believed it had tricked Song Yun, unaware that he was feigning sleep.

In the next instant, the One-eyed Demon Wolf became a mere blur, charging towards Song Yun.

"He’s doomed!"

Cold smiles appeared on the faces of He Tiansheng and He Ji as they stepped out of hiding, watching Song Yun, who was rushing towards them, with eyes full of mockery.

Excitedly, He Tiansheng exclaimed, "Hahaha, Song Yun, you’re courting death, the One-eyed Demon Wolf will kill you."

"Is that so?"

Song Yun chuckled lightly, paying no attention to the One-eyed Demon Wolf chasing from behind, continuing to run towards He Tiansheng and He Ji.

In the blink of an eye, the One-eyed Demon Wolf caught up with Song Yun.

The violent aura of the demon beast enveloped Song Yun, an invisible pressure attempting to subdue him.

Surprised looks crossed the faces of He Tiansheng and He Ji; even from a distance, they felt the terrifying aura of the demon beast, something they couldn’t possibly resist.

In their eyes, Song Yun, at the core of the aura, surely suffered worse.

Yet, as strong as the aura was, compared to the demon aura leaking from the Ten Thousand Demon Order, it was insignificantly weaker.

To Song Yun, it had no effect whatsoever.

Suddenly, he stopped running towards He Tiansheng and He Ji, abruptly turned, and looked at the One-eyed Demon Wolf behind him.

"Awooo!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf howled excitedly, thinking its presence had subdued Song Yun, that this weak human no longer dared to run.

It approached, opening its bloody maw, from which wisps of grayish-brown aura emanated, clinging to its teeth as it fiercely attacked Song Yun.

It loathed Song Yun, this human who was supposed to die, yet made it wait for over ten days.

Thus, it used its most powerful strike right away.

It wanted to turn Song Yun into fragments.

Suddenly, the teeth of the One-eyed Demon Wolf grew larger, protruding from its mouth, with grayish-brown demon beast aura swirling around them, revolving rapidly around the teeth.

The airflow around it was drawn into this rotation, with small stones and sand also swirling along.

A fierce whirlwind formed around the One-eyed Demon Wolf, with it at the center.

And Song Yun, at the center of this whirlwind.

"How powerful!"

He Tiansheng and He Ji were utterly astonished.

They admitted that facing such a strike, they would be utterly helpless, even fleeing would prove difficult.

In contrast, Song Yun, standing unperturbed at the whirlwind’s center, showed no reaction, seemingly unaware of the attacking One-eyed Demon Wolf.

"Is this kid out of his mind?"

"Hmph, whatever, he’s dead for sure."

He Tiansheng and He Ji were ready to flee.

However, they wanted to witness Song Yun’s death with their own eyes before making their escape.

After all, He Sui hadn’t appeared yet, and she held talismans in her possession.
