Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

Chapter 656

"Whoosh!"

Ling Yanyan's speed was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of feet away. Soon, Ling Yanyan completely surpassed the black wolf and then disappeared into the forest.

"Ouch."

The black wolf roared angrily, but it was covered in wounds and was no match for Ling Yanyan.

After an incense stick's time, Ling Yanyan arrived at a valley where a pack of wolves were hunting for food.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, Ling Yanyan heard the howling of wolves. Looking up, he saw several wolves chasing a girl.

"Help! Please, save me!" the girl cried out. Her clothes were tattered, her face was pale, and she was sweating profusely. She clearly couldn't hold on much longer.

Seeing the girl being chased, Ling Yanyan frowned, then rushed over without hesitation.

"Roar!"

Several wolves spotted Ling Yanyan and immediately let out angry howls before pouncing on him. They seemed to have identified Ling Yanyan as an enemy and were ready to tear him to pieces.

"Get lost!" Ling Yanyan slapped a wolf hard, sending it flying and crashing into a tree trunk. The wolf coughed up blood and passed out.

Then, Ling Yanyan swept out with another palm, striking the remaining wolf.

"Crack!"

The wolf died instantly.

"Pfft!"

Ling Yanyan struck out with another palm, instantly severing the head of the wounded wolf.

"Thank you for saving my life, young master. I am willing to serve you as your servant." Just then, the girl came to Ling Yanyan and knelt down.

Ling Yanyan frowned, then asked, "What's your name? Why did you come to the forest alone in the middle of the night?"

"My name is Liu Yanran," Liu Yanran replied respectfully. "My father is critically ill, and I must find a miraculous medicine to prolong his life as soon as possible."

"I see." Ling Yanyan nodded in realization. No wonder Liu Yanran would venture into the forest alone late at night; it turned out her father was ill.

“However, it’s too dangerous for a weak woman like you to come to the forest so late at night.” Ling Yanyan looked at Liu Yanran and shook his head, saying, “You should leave now to avoid being targeted by other monsters.”

"I dare not stay any longer. If other demonic beasts target me, I'm afraid I won't escape their clutches." Liu Yanran's eyes were filled with panic and fear. Her body trembled, and she stammered as she spoke.

Ling Yanyan looked at Liu Yanran and pondered for a moment before saying, "How about this, I'll escort you away from the forest."

"Thank you, young master," Liu Yanran said quickly.

Ling Yanyan waved his hand, then put his hands behind his back and slowly walked away.

Liu Yanran followed closely behind.

Ling Yanyan didn't possess any wind-controlling techniques, but she was incredibly fast. She quickly reached the edge of the forest, then leaped out and headed towards the town.

On the way, Liu Yanran lowered her head, looking utterly ashamed.

Ling Yanyan glanced at Liu Yanran and said indifferently, "Just forget about what happened earlier."

"Yes!" Liu Yanran nodded vigorously, and said through gritted teeth, "I, Liu Yanran, swear that I will never tell anyone about what happened today."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yanyan secretly praised her. Although this girl was somewhat timid, she was very sensible and did not betray him.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the space rippled slightly, and an old man in black appeared out of thin air in front of Ling Yanyan and Liu Yanran. The old man in black had a serious expression and exuded a faint pressure.

"Junior Ling Yanyan pays respects to senior!" Ling Yanyan quickly bowed and greeted him.

The old man in black glanced at Ling Yan Yan, his eyes narrowed slightly, a strange light flashing in them, and then he said, "It's quite surprising that you were able to withstand my pressure without being affected."

Ling Yanyan's expression changed, and then he said, "Senior, you misunderstand. I have never practiced martial arts and cannot withstand your pressure."

"Oh, I see." The old man in black nodded in understanding, then asked, "What are you doing in the forest?"

"Reporting to Senior, I have come here to hunt down a Black Wolf King," Ling Yanyan said.

"The Black Wolf King?" The old man in black looked at Ling Yanyan in surprise and said, "Young man, don't tease me. There is no Black Wolf King in this area. If you really want to capture the Black Wolf King, go north. There are packs of wolves there."

Ling Yanyan was slightly taken aback, then asked, "Senior, what level of demon beast is the Black Wolf King?"

"A high-level seventh-tier Black Wolf King? Can you, a mere ninth-level Body Tempering Realm brat, possibly kill it?" the old man in black retorted.

"A high-level seventh-tier demonic beast?" Ling Yanyan's eyes lit up, and then he said, "Since you've said that there's no Black Wolf King in this area, I should be leaving now."

"Whoosh!" Ling Yanyan used the Illusionary Steps and quickly disappeared into the distance.

"Sigh, this foolish boy actually believed my nonsense. He's incredibly stupid." The old man in black shook his head and continued to guard the center of the forest to prevent other demonic beasts from approaching.
