Chapter Seven: Fighting the Wolves
Chapter Seven: Fighting the Wolves
Seeing that its attack had failed, the alpha wolf turned around and pounced on Feng Fei, but this time it used its two front paws instead of its mouth.
The alpha wolf's forepaws were incredibly sharp, gleaming coldly in the moonlight; one could tell at a glance that many souls had perished beneath those claws.
Feng Fei dared not be careless and quickly used his small sword to block, but his body involuntarily retreated.
Before it could stop, the wolf suddenly howled, and the other wolves in the bushes echoed its call. Then, several wolves, slightly smaller than the alpha wolf, slowly emerged. It turned out that the wolf, seeing that its attacks had failed, was very anxious and quickly ordered several of its capable henchmen to come out and help, so as to finish off its prey as soon as possible.
As more and more wolves emerged, Feng Fei's brows furrowed deeper as she racked her brains for a solution. Meanwhile, Ming Feng, who had been pulled aside by Feng Wu, chirped anxiously. If Feng Wu hadn't assured her that nothing would happen to Feng Fei, Ming Feng would have already rushed out and burned all the wolves alive.
Before Feng Fei could come up with a solution, the alpha wolf impatiently ordered his men to attack him.
Feng Fei had no choice but to hastily respond.
Previously, he had only dealt with one wolf without any trouble, but the coordinated attacks of these jungle wolves were starting to overwhelm Feng Fei. Before long, several bloody wounds appeared on his body. However, the wolves weren't faring much better; almost all of them were injured.
However, drawn by the scent of blood, the wolves' eyes became even more intense. If they hadn't received orders from the alpha wolf, all the other jungle wolves would probably have attacked.
This can't go on! Feng Fei gritted his teeth; if things continued like this, his life might be in danger!
Feng Fei slashed open his left palm, and blood gushed out. He then pressed the small sword in his right hand against it, and the blade instantly turned blood red. It then suddenly swelled, its aura increasing dramatically, frightening the wolves into retreating. However, Feng Fei was now somewhat weakened. The blood he had shed from the initial bleeding to his self-inflicted wound was enough to kill an ordinary person. Feng Fei couldn't help but marvel at the resilience of his body.
Feng Fei discovered this method while searching the original owner's memories. At that time, she lamented the self-harming nature of the method, never expecting that she would have to use it herself now. The little voice in Feng Fei's mind lay on the ground, weeping bitterly.
When the small sword transformed into a ten-foot-long blood sword, Feng Fei's eyes widened, and his murderous aura surged. The moves he made became even more powerful and sweeping, most of them designed to injure both opponents.
Seeing the situation was not good, the alpha wolf wanted to retreat and let the other wolves attack Feng Fei, but how could Feng Fei let the alpha wolf have his way? So he ignored the attacks of the other wolves and attacked the alpha wolf directly!
Seeing the menacing Feng Fei, the alpha wolf's fighting spirit surged, and it recklessly unleashed its strongest attack to directly clash with Feng Fei.
"Bang!"
Feng Fei's sword struck the alpha wolf's head, but the wolf also clawed at her chest, tearing a gash from her left shoulder down to her lower right abdomen. Feng Fei winced in pain. She couldn't even cover the wound; blood dripped from her hand onto the ground.
Having lost too much blood, coupled with the exertion he had just exerted and the heavy blow from the alpha wolf, Feng Fei lost his balance and barely managed to steady himself by using his blood sword to support himself. He knew things were going badly.
Gurgle.
The alpha wolf, which had been so ferocious just moments before, now had its head rolling to the ground.
The other wolves were startled and jumped back a few steps. Suddenly, they stepped forward again, saw the alpha wolf was dead, howled in grief, and then swarmed towards Feng Fei.
Just as Feng Fei was lamenting in his heart, he hurriedly dodged the attack of a jungle wolf, but was still scratched on the face, and immediately felt a burning pain on his face.
Feng Fei sighed inwardly: My face is ruined! And I'm about to die! How tragic, to be killed by these wolves and not even have a whole corpse!
Feng Fei gritted his teeth, ready to fight to the death, when suddenly a deafening roar came from afar. The surrounding jungle wolves were so frightened that they lay on the ground trembling. Feng Fei also felt the invincible ferocity. The roars made Feng Fei's chest feel tight, but he was also fortunate to have these roars, otherwise he would have no way to deal with these jungle wolves!
Just as he was thinking this, the wolves scattered around, led by the strongest of the remaining wolves, fled in a sorry state. Feng Fei clearly saw the trembling bodies of the fleeing wolves!
Feng Fei collapsed to the ground, gave the middle finger in the direction the jungle wolf had fled, and said with disdain: "Tch, little punk, scared!"
The movement was a bit too large, and Feng Fei accidentally aggravated his wound, causing him to grimace in pain once again.
Feng Fei lightly patted the ring, and a white, crystal-clear pill appeared in his hand. Without thinking, Feng Fei tilted his head back and swallowed it.
The elixir melted upon entering his mouth, transforming into waves of heat that flowed into Feng Fei's heart and lungs, slowly repairing his wounds.
The first thing they should do is find a place to hide; the smell of blood here is too strong and would easily attract other ferocious beasts. However, Feng Fei was too weak to move at the moment, and recovering from his injuries was the most important thing.
Soon, the bleeding from the wound on his chest stopped, and a thin scab began to form. It was a little itchy, and Feng Fei grimaced, barely managing to resist the urge to scratch. The wound on his face also slowly scab over, and soon the scab fell off, revealing tender pink skin.
Feng Fei slowly stood up, supporting himself with the blood-stained sword. With a flash of cold light, the sword vanished. Feng Fei broke off a relatively thick branch, intending to use it to find a safe place to continue healing.
Feng Wu followed behind with Ming Feng, and seeing that Feng Fei was being extremely careful this time, leaving no trace that might provoke the ferocious beasts, he nodded in satisfaction. Only after Feng Fei found a place to rest did he reveal himself.
Upon hearing the unusual noise, Feng Fei's heart skipped a beat. But when he saw it was Feng Wu, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Feng Wu scooped out a blue pill with a strong medicinal fragrance and handed it to Feng Fei: "Rejuvenation Pill, for healing." Feng Wu was always concise, and Feng Fei didn't mind. She took the pill and swallowed it without thinking. Her body was very weak; if it weren't for her willpower, she would probably have already collapsed on the ground like a corpse. Moreover, the previous pill only treated the symptoms, not the root cause. She hoped that the medicine Feng Wu gave her would completely heal her injuries.
While Feng Fei was trying to heal his injuries, the roars of strange, ferocious beasts could be heard from outside from time to time. It sounded like there were at least two of them.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Feng Fei could faintly feel the ground trembling. Combined with the sounds outside, he could guess that the two ferocious beasts were fighting, and the impact was so great that all the other animals in the forest had fled. That was the source of the ground tremors.
Having just regained his senses, Feng Fei heard the commotion and thought to himself that it was fortunate he had found a relatively secluded and remote place, so that these panicked and listless animals would not interfere with his recovery.
Closing his eyes, Feng Fei suppressed his smugness, banished the distracting thoughts swirling in his mind, and began to seriously heal his wounds.
Chapter 8: Another fight is about to begin.
Another fight is about to begin in Chapter Eight.
Time passed slowly, but the tremors outside had not yet subsided.
Feng Fei opened his eyes, listened carefully, and after confirming that the two ferocious beasts were still fighting, he was about to stand up and stretch his limbs when his stomach suddenly growled.
Mingfeng chirped beside Fengfei, seemingly mocking him, but the next moment its stomach growled too. Mingfeng covered its head with its wings in embarrassment and annoyance. Fengfei found it amusing, went over and patted Mingfeng's head, saying, "Mingfeng, wait a minute, I'll go out and get some food. You go out and find some fruit too! Find more of those brown and green fruits like last time."
"Chirp chirp!" Mingfeng responded and then flew away in a flash.
Feng Fei changed his clothes, covered up the small cave, and eliminated any signs that someone had used it before leaving.
At this time, there were still many animals running blindly in the jungle, and Fengfei caught two rabbits and a pheasant without much effort.
When they returned to the small cave, Mingfeng was already back. Urged by Mingfeng, Fengfei quickly roasted the rabbit and chicken. Mingfeng ate them without caring that they were hot, shook his body, and suddenly shrunk to the size of a sparrow, clinging to the rabbit's body. Soon his body was covered in oil, looking particularly comical.
Feng Fei watched in astonishment, never expecting Ming Feng to be able to change size: "Ming Feng, from now on, just stay this size! It will be much more convenient!"
Mingfeng listened, lifted her small body from the roasted meat, tilted her head, and seemed to be considering the feasibility of Fengfei's words. After a while, Mingfeng nodded almost visibly and then focused on eating again.
Feng Fei understood perfectly, knowing that Ming Feng had agreed, so he smiled and started eating.
After finishing their meal, Feng Fei urged Ming Feng to find a pool of water to wash herself. Just as she was about to sit down and carefully recall the gains and losses of her life-or-death struggle with the jungle wolves, Feng Wu suddenly appeared.
"What are your thoughts on your battle with the wolves just now?"
Feng Wu only asked that one question before quietly sitting down next to Feng Fei. Feng Fei thought for a moment, carefully choosing his words to summarize. Although there were still some omissions, Feng Wu would fill in the gaps when Feng Fei missed something, and it was a rather harmonious scene.
The task was completed in no time. "You did well afterwards, leaving no trace. Now let's go to Roar's place," Feng Wu suddenly said to Feng Fei.
Just as Feng Fei was about to agree, a sudden, sharp pain shot through her body, almost causing her to lose her balance. Feng Wu jumped in surprise, abandoning his stern teacher demeanor, and rushed forward to support Feng Fei, anxiously asking, "What's wrong? Where do you feel unwell?"
Feng Fei was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, but when he heard Feng Wu's concerned words, he still managed to force a smile to comfort her, though the smile was more painful than a grimace.
"I should be fine." Feng Fei managed to utter these four words before gasping for breath. Her face showed only slight contortions from the intense pain and large beads of sweat, but her mind was racing: "Could it be that the previous tempering hasn't finished yet? That's it! The previous tempering only refined the soul; those red liquids haven't taken effect yet!" Thinking of the previous pain, Feng Fei couldn't help but shudder. Fortunately, the current pain was still within her tolerance.
Feng Fei called to Ming Feng, who then gripped her shoulder. She ran out of the small cave and began running through the unfamiliar mountains. She needed to find a safe place before she lost the ability to move due to the pain; otherwise, she wasn't sure who could help her this time.
As he ran, Feng Fei's eyes suddenly lit up: a dark cave entrance appeared to his right. Feng Fei hesitated at the entrance for a moment, and after confirming that there was no foul smell left by wild animals inside, he endured the pain, plucked some vines and grass, and crawled inside.
After entering, Feng Fei used the vines he had just pulled to loosely cover the entrance of the cave, and then staggered into the cave.
Mingfeng sat quietly and obediently on Fengfei's shoulder. Just by looking at its four-turned little head and bright little eyes, you could tell that it was also helping Fengfei to check the surrounding situation.
The cave seemed very deep, or perhaps not so deep, but because of the pain that kept throbbing in his body, Feng Fei felt that this time was particularly long.
Feng Fei endured the intermittent pain and her body was also spasming. She gritted her teeth and looked around.
The cave was very narrow, making it difficult even for Feng Fei, a mere twelve-year-old, to move around. The cave walls were slippery, and because of the poor lighting, Feng Fei couldn't tell what they were. She didn't dare to think about them too closely, as the mere thought of them sent shivers down her spine. However, without holding onto the walls, it was difficult to walk steadily. Feng Fei endured the discomfort and decided to continue forward, using the walls for support. She tied a handkerchief around her hands, comforting herself: Better than nothing!
A faint light emanated from the front of the cave, and Feng Fei was invigorated, his steps becoming much lighter.
At this moment, Ming...

The cave ahead suddenly widened and deepened, extending several meters downwards. A milky white liquid seeped from the walls, slowly converging into a pool below. In the pool, a strange, blood-red lotus flower remained unopened, its bud swaying gently, seemingly possessing an eerie rhythm. And on the rock beside the pool, a giant, azure python coiled itself!
Because it was coiled up, Feng Fei couldn't see how long the giant python was, but he could tell that it was definitely not small: its body was about two zhang thick! The huge snake head rested on its body, occasionally flicking its tongue. Its strangely colored snake eyes were currently dull, indicating that the giant python was asleep.
Feng Fei felt a chill run down his spine. This python was so big; it could swallow several of him in one gulp. Just as he was about to back away, a sharp pain shot through him. Caught off guard, Feng Fei couldn't help but let out a soft cry. He lost his footing and fell right next to the giant python.
After a jarring fall, Feng Fei finally recovered and realized she was only half a meter away from the giant python. Startled, she retreated hastily, but in a moment of carelessness, the handkerchief in her hand slipped and landed on the python's head. Just then, the python flicked its tongue, touched the handkerchief, smelled the strange odor, and its vertical pupils flashed with an eerie light.
In his blue eyes was a kind of ruthlessness that a predator was born with. In just one glance, Feng Fei felt a chill to the bone, and his back was instantly soaked with sweat.
However, the more tense and fearful she became, the calmer Feng Fei was able to stay. She knew that if she couldn't even maintain a good mindset, then her life would be the next outcome.
And an even more arrogant thought swirled in Feng Fei's mind: What kind of godforsaken place is this! So many unpleasant things have happened in such a short time since I arrived! Looks like I'm going to have to fight again! What bad luck!
********************************
Happy birthday to Bancheng today!
Chapter 9: Battle Against the Giant Python
Chapter Nine: Battle Against the Giant Python
Although his mind was filled with all sorts of chaotic thoughts, Feng Fei was still prepared to fight at any time.
The giant blue python slowly raised its upper body, while Feng Fei remained standing still. From her knowledge of her past life, she knew that snakes had poor eyesight and usually only attacked moving creatures. Although she was now in another world, she couldn't understand why this principle didn't hold true.
The giant blue python kept flicking its tongue, and the hissing sound made Feng Fei's skin crawl.
