XIAO SHUXIANG'S

21 - Silver Horned Wolf [Revised]

Xiao Shuxiang's breath seemed to be choked, his facial features were slightly pale, he also had trouble swallowing his saliva.

"Why should I meet this monster now?"

Besides Xiao Shuxiang. Jing Mi and Qi Xuan also felt the same way. Though they hoped not to meet any ferocious beasts including Demonic Beasts.

As Xiao Shuxiang, Jing Mi and Qi Xuan slowly stepped back... The Silver Horned Wolf growled and slowly walked towards the three.

"Sa-Brother Jing, Sa-Brother Xiao... You guys go first. Let me hold this wolf. I-though I ju-also not sure bi-can hold it much longer..." Qi Xuan was nervous and his voice was trembling.

She was scared, but as the older child of Jing Mi and Xiao Shuxiang, she should be able to protect her two younger siblings.

"Mothers... Fathering... Xuan'Er apologise. Xuan'Er might not be able to go home..." Qi Xuan slowly drew his sword, but was instantly restrained by Xiao Shuxiang's right hand.

"Don't underestimate me. Me, Xiao Shuxiang! never afraid of any danger! Run away from this Demonic Beast...? Huh! That's not Xiao Shuxiang's style!"

Xiao Shuxiang spoke loudly and was impressed to provoke the Silver Horned Wolf into focusing on him. He then gave the forest chicken that was in his hands to Jing Mi.

"Hold this and don't let go. I'll give you three minutes to call grandpa, run as fast as you can when I start counting..."

Jing Mi and Qi Xuan gasped, "Sa-Brother Xiao... You-you..."

"I Borrow Your Swords, Go!"

There was no time for Jing Mi and Qi Xuan to speak-Xiao Shuxiang to instantly draw their swords and directly run towards the Silver Horned Wolf. The wolf itself that noticed Xiao Shuxiang running towards him also attacked.

Arriving in the middle, the swords belonging to Jing Mi and Qi Xuan that were in Xiao Shuxiang's hands clashed with the Wolf's horns.

The sound of the impact was so loud. Even as a result, the Jing Mi sword that was in Xiao Shuxiang's left hand cracked. He himself felt a dullness in his hand.

"It sucks! Whereas in my first life, an animal like this I could kill with just a pebble. I never thought I'd have to expend so much energy..." Xiao Shuxiang gritted his teeth, he tried to push the Silver Horned Wolf while continuing to hold his horns with the sword in both hands.

Xiao Shuxiang was a little relieved that this Silver Horned Wolf was still young, around 30 years old.

One way to tell the age of a Demonic Beast is to look at its body shape. The larger the Demonic Beast's body size, the older it was. The aura emitted by an aged Demonic Beast was also different from that of a young Demonic Beast.

Even though this wolf was only a 30-year-old Demonic Beast, it was still difficult to defeat by Xiao Shuxiang. Moreover, the condition of his body now was only the body of a 7-year-old boy.

"Tsk, I can't even use Qi because my dantian is a Defective Dantian. If I use it, my body will hurt a lot. I wish I could hold this animal for three minutes..."

Xiao Shuxiang continued to push the Silver Horned Wolf, but the wolf also pushed him along. "If it continues like this, I will lose!"

Xiao Shuxiang focused his weight on his left leg, including withstanding the energy from the Silver Horned Wolf. He wanted his right leg to be free to move for a second to hook one of the wolf legs close enough to his left foot.

When he sensed a fitting position, Xiao Shuxiang did as he wished. And it worked!

The Silver Horned Wolf lost its balance and fell because one of its front legs was hooked by Xiao Shuxiang's right foot.

Jing Mi and Qi Xuan who saw Xiao Shuxiang's action were speechless, they were amazed as Xiao Shuxiang looked not afraid at all.

"Why Are You Still Here?! Go Quick!" Xiao Shuxiang realized that Jing Mi and Qi Xuan still saw him becoming a little annoyed. He had already tried hard just to hook one of the wolf legs, yet Jing Mi and Qi Xuan were just watching without looking for help.

Qi Xuan's. "I'm sorry Brother Xiao, We're Gone Soon!"

Mi Jing. "You Must Survive My Brother!!"

Qi Xuan and Jing Mi immediately ran away leaving Xiao Shuxiang still fighting the Silver Horned Wolf.

In their hearts they regretted and cursed themselves for not having such great courage as Xiao Shuxiang. In fact, if only a little they had the same courage as his younger brother, they would definitely be able to help him.

"Forging Qi level 3 what?! I'm like no use at all." Qi Xuan was running so fast, he was not even aware that he was crying.

In contrast to Qi Xuan, Jing Mi was seen crying loudly. "Brother Xiao! You've got to hang on!"

Xiao Shuxiang was still fighting the Silver Horned Wolf. Several times he was knocked over and nearly stepped on by the Wolf. Fortunately Xiao Shuxiang was able to dodge it quickly.

His heart almost stopped when one of the wolf legs was right next to his head. "Huuf... I thought I was flat..."

Xiao Shuxiang rolled over and quickly got up then ran over to avoid the Silver Horned Wolf.

He runs in a Zig-Zag fashion. This was because if he ran straight, the wolf could easily pounce on him.

Xiao Shuxiang used a few bushes or trees to make it difficult for the wolf to chase after him.

"I remember the past... What a wonderful time...!" Xiao Shuxiang smiled widely, he remembered in his first life-he often went to the mountain to make trouble with Demonic Beasts who had large body sizes.

It was not uncommon for Xiao Shuxiang to have broken bones while being chased or fighting with the monster beast.

But despite fighting monsters, Xiao Shuxiang could always defeat him. Back then, he had a special dantian in the form of a Phoenix Fire Dantian so that he could fight using his Qi.

Unlike today, the one where Xiao Shuxiang only had a Defective Dantian. He could not use the Qi that was in his dantian, because if used then Xiao Shuxiang's entire body would be in a lot of pain.

So you could say, Xiao Shuxiang's chances of winning were very small.

Jing Mi and Qi Xuan continued running while hailing Yang Shu. They did not know the whereabouts of the elders now, and that was why they were so afraid that they would not be able to find Yang Shu as soon as possible.

"Teacher, Master!!"

"Elder!!"

Jing Mi and Qi Xuan continued to gallop as they continued to call out to Yang Shu, and as they found Yang Shu and Xiao Lu who looked to be picking fruit... Both of them accelerated their run.

"Teacher?! Master!!" Jing Mi cried loudly, it made Yang Shu and Xiao Lu surprised.

"What's wrong with you, son?" Yang Shu immediately approached Jing Mi and gently rubbed her back.

"Teacher! Save Brother Xiao! Hurry along!" Jing Mi tugged at Yang Shu to follow her.

"Xiao'Er?! What Happened to My Beloved Grandchild?!"

"Elder, Brother Xiao fought the demonic beast alone Elder!" Qi Xuan pointed towards the direction where Xiao Shuxiang was fighting.

Yang Shu and Xiao Lu were surprised instead of playing. "My Beloved Grandchild?!" Yang Shu dashed quickly towards the direction that Qi Xuan pointed at.

Jing Mi, Xiao Lu and Qi Xuan gasped in shock as Yang Shu ran so fast. But they have no time to be amazed. The three then ran after Yang Shu.

"My sister!!" Xiao Lu cried as he continued to run along with Jing Mi and Qi Xuan.

"Brother Xiao, hang in there! We'll be here soon!"

GROOAAAR !!

The growl of the Silver Horned Wolf sounded so loud.

Xiao Shuxiang injured the right side of the wolf's body with Jing Mi's sword, but he had to swallow the disappointment because after he injured the Silver-Horned Wolf-sword Jing Mi broke into three pieces.

"Haiy... It's a bad sword!" Xiao Shuxiang threw the already shapeless Jing Mi sword in his left hand.

He then drew his own sword and then again attacked the Wolf.

When viewed from Xiao Shuxiang's current body and age, it was impossible for a 7-year-old to defeat a Demonic Beast. Especially with the quality of ordinary bones and defective dantian.

However, since Xiao Shuxiang had a Breathing Technique, he was able to move more agilely and could also strengthen his muscles. Although it was still not enough to be able to kill this Demonic Beast.

The Breathing Technique that Xiao Shuxiang used was the Master of the Air Breathing Technique, the Wind Breathing Technique.

If Air Breathing Techniques are used to sort hot air and cold air in order to be used to cool the body or vice versa, then the Wind Breathing Technique serves to accelerate blood flow to make the body muscles become strong.

"Well...! Despite using the Wind Breathing Technique, but fighting without being able to use Qi felt heavy!" The two Xiao Shuxiang swords again clashed with the wolf horns.

This time the Silver Horned Wolf used greater force and finally pushed Xiao Shuxiang away and made him bounce far away.

"Ukh!! Pu-my back..." Xiao Shuxiang felt a pain in his back as it clashed against the ground. He's sure his back is bruised now.

Xiao Shuxiang was not standing... The Silver Horned Wolf again attacked him. Just as Xiao Shuxiang thought he was going to die, a sword pierced the head of the Silver Horned Wolf.

The wolf growled very hard and raised its front legs high. A kick aimed at the Wolf's body and made it flung far enough.

Xiao Shuxiang slowly woke up, he could see that the one who attacked the Silver Horned Wolf was Yang Shu.

"Xiao'Er?! You okay?" Yang Shu held onto both shoulders of Xiao Shuxiang and ascertained his condition, Yang Shu's facial features looked extremely worried.

"My back hurts." - Xiao Shuxiang.

As if not feeling any pain in his head, the Silver Horned Wolf again attacked. He shook his head to release Yang Shu's sword.

The wolf then dashed quickly towards Yang Shu and Xiao Shuxiang while growling loudly.

Yang Shu realized it, he immediately ran over quickly and attacked the Silver Horned Wolf with a fist fed by his Qi.

The Silver Horned Wolf was thrown away for the second time. "You've Injured My Beloved Grandson!!" Yang Shu chased after the Silver Horned Wolf, he looked furious.
