Chapter 12 - Constellation

Demon Wolf

Just as the Draconic Realm was

separated into nine stages, Long

Chen knew that demonic beasts

were also classified according to

nine stages. All five of the Devil

Groundhounds were at least

Category 4 Yellow-tier. Each of them

was stronger than Long Chen.

Ling Xi also told him before that the

Moon Devouring Wolf was a being

that exceeded even the Category 9

beasts!

Long Chen saw the five Devil

Groundhounds celebrating that the

demonic ginseng had entered their

territory.

Five Devil Groundhounds. They're

each stronger than I am, but I have

my Constellation Body. If I launch a

surprise attack and steal the

demonic ginseng, my chances of

succeeding are pretty good. But

then, the Devil Groundhounds would

chase me and cause a massive

commotion. There's no way | could

exit the Desolate Beastlands alive if

that happens.

But if I don't take a risk, I wil not

have the qualifications to fight

anyone in the Family Meeting.

Whatever, dying here is better than

living as a covward.

Long Chen's eyes were cold as he

stood. Ling Xi immediately stopped

him and whispered. "ldiot! Do you

not cherish your life? There's an

abundance of spiritual herbs in this

place. If you die, you won't even

have a second chance."

Long Chen could feel how much

Ling Xi cared for him from her

desperation. This stunned him for a

moment, and he thought back

about how fevw people had treated

him well in the past. They had only

known each other for a short period

of time, so he felt touched by her

words.

"Xiao Xi, you are a good person.

Relax, I won't be brash. I still need

to protect you."

"Tsk. I've always been a good

person from childhood,"

It was clear that it was the first

time she had been complimented

like this. While her reply was a bit

harsh, there was a hint of

embarrassment in her tone.

The Devil Groundhounds were right

in front of them so Long Chen kept

the conversation to a minimumn.

When he saw that the Devil

Groundhounds were taking the

demonic ginseng back, Ling Xi

suddenly whispered. "Another beast

is coming ..."

Long Chen was startled by her

Words. He saw the fur of the five

Devil Groundhounds stand as they

glared and growled at the entrance

of the canyon. Just then, a massive

shadoW appeared out of the

darkness.

A brilliant light flashed in the

canyon, forcing Long Chen to

Squeeze his eyes shut. The

mysterious beast was clearly visible

under the soft starlight. It was a

wolf-type beast. While it was not as

large as the Moon Devouring Wolf, it

was lithe and agile as silvery-white

fur covered its body. Just then, Long

Chen sensed that the beast was

slowly absorbing the starlight from

the heavens into its fur.

"This is ... a Category 5 Yellow-tier

Constellation Demon WNolf ... It

usually absorbs starlight to

cultivate. Its body is very resilient

Ling Xi whispered her explanation in

Long Chen's ear.

To think that it was a Category 5

Yellow-tier demonic beast. This one

was even harder to fight, so Long

Chen didn't even dare breathe

loudly.

The Constellation Demon Wolf

entered the canyon and growled at

the five Devil Groundhounds.

As though the Devil Groundhounds

had provoked it, the Constellation

Demon Wolf lunged towards them.

Long Chen and Ling Xi kept quiet as

they watched the fight unfold.

As expected, the Constellation

Demon Wolf was an expert that

cultivated its physical body. A single

swipe of its claws reduced the rocks

around them to rubble. However,

the Devil Groundhounds weren't

pushovers, and they fought back,

growling and baring their fangs. It

was a fearsome sight.

"The way the Devil Groundhounds

use their claws ... there is a hint of a

martial technigue. Their attacks are

as strong as a beginner's martial

technique. The Constellation Demon

Wolf is even stronger ..."

Soon, the Constellation Demon Wolf

used its superior strength to

Suppress the Devil Groundhounds.

The Groundhounds were fearsome,

but the Constellation Demon Wolf

still heavily injured or killed them

with its claws and fangs. In less

than fifteen minutes, all five of the

Devil Groundhounds were on the

ground.

The Constellation Demnon Wolf

sniffed the trembling demonic

ginseng.

It let out an excited howl as the

starlight in the heavens shone even

brighter. Only then did the beast

leave contentedly.

"The demonic beast has taken the

demonic ginseng. Quick, let's chase

after it!"

The cowardly Ling Xi was actually

telling him to chase after the

Constellation Demon Wolf. Long

Chen knew she had an excellent

background so he trusted her.

However, he ran towards the dead

Devil Groundhounds first and

extracted their demonic cores.

"I can exchange them for some rare

items."

"You greedy little bastard. Quic, go

and chase after the Constellation

Demon Wolf. But don't get caught

or you will die."

Ling Xi was much more anxious than

Long Chen.

The Constellation Demon Wolf

wasn't traveling fast, and Long Chen

quickly caught up to it after he

extracted the demonic cores. At

first, he only observed the beast

from afar.

"Xiao Xi, why are you asking me to

follow it so urgently? It's already

taken the demonic ginseng, and

there's nothing left for us."

Ling Xi said urgently, "It may have

taken the demonic ginseng but a

demonic beast usually treats

spiritual herbs as nothing but an

ordinary food source. They cannot

extract the properties of the herbs,

So it wOuld be a waste. The

Constellation Demon Wolf is the

king of the beasts in this particular

region, so it has likely stockpiled a

lot of spiritual herbs in its cave. The

demonic beasts loved to hoard

food, the more the better. As long

as we follow it, we should be able

to locate its nest."

Long Chen finally understood. If

what she says is true, it won't be a

waste of time if I manage to snag

something.

Barely an hour had passed when the

Constellation Demon Wolf stopped

in front of a cave and entered it

swiftly. Long Chen hid behind a

boulder in front of the cave and

observed it.

"Xiao Xi, what should we do?"

Ling Xi said anxiously, "Wait here. I

have a plan."

She was being very mysterious.

Long Chen couldn't be bothered to

find out more as he observed the

cave intently. Soon, the

Constellation Demon Wolf emerged

from the cave, raised its head, and

looked around. Long Chen

immediately hid his breath and

presence. He didn't dare to move,

his heart beating wildly.

The beast checked its surroundings

for a moment before howling. Using

its powerful four legs, it

disappeared without a trace.

Ling Xi happily said, "Just as I

expected. Bastard, quickly enter the

cave. There should be a lot of

treasures inside."

Long Chen didn't even need her

reminder. The Constellation Demon

Wolf had entered the cave briefly

before heading out again. If it had

eaten the demonic ginseng, it

would've stayed in the cave longer.

Long Chen ran into the cave. The

cave was long and dark, and the

intense scent of a wolf assaulted his

nose.

"This really is the cave of the

Constellation Demon WNolf."

Soon his surroundings grew brighter

as Long Chen entered a domed

area. It was the Constellation

Demon Wolf's home. The fragrant

smell of herbs was mixed with the

Scent of excrement.

"To think there's two demonic

ginseng ... Long Chen, you are so

lucky. Hurry and collect them!"

Long Chen took the two demonic

ginseng and placed them in his

shirt. Then, he suddenly felt a chill

in his heart.

"Ah. I forgot. Because the demonic

ginseng could potentially run away,

that beast must have locked them

down with a technique. Since you

have taken the ginseng, the beast

probably realized that we're here."

Long Chen's face turned red in rage

as he scolded her. "You stupid b***h!

Why didn't you tell me sooner!

You've just signed my death

warrant!"

There was no time to dally. Long

Chen ran as fast as he could

towards the entrance. Ling Xi knew

she had committed a grave error so

she kept quiet as she escaped with

Long Chen.

They could hear the angry howl of

the Constellation Demon Wolf

Somewhere near the entrance,

which filled the night sky. Long

Chen's heart ran cold as he ran out

of the caves.

"There." Ling Xi pointed.

Long Chen ran in the direction she

was pointing to. He could feel a

heavy panting noise behind him

growing closer and closer.

"lI'm going to f*****g die this time.

Before I do I will f*****g drag you

out of this stupid sword and fuck

you up first!"

"Sob ... I... It wasn't intentional. I

only forgot ... Sob sob...
