Chapter 4894: Rescue “Huff, huff!” One of them gasped for breath, his hand already gripping the teleportation jade token at his waist. Gritting his teeth, he said, “I don’t think we can hold out much longer. If we keep fighting, we’ll all end up here. Better to shatter the teleportation jade token!” The other hesitated, saying nothing, though his face betrayed his reluctance. A third gritted his teeth, fuming, “Break it yourself if you must! We finally made it to this forest—if we turn back now, we’ll be laughed to death! And we’ve barely been here. If we leave now, how can we ever hold our heads high again?” 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞 Hearing this, the hesitant and resentful youth chimed in, “Exactly! It’s not the final moment yet! If things get truly desperate, we can shatter it then. I refuse to break it now. Besides, I want to bring my mother a gift from here!” “Don’t forget what the elders told us—this is just a trial. Staying alive is the top priority. If you want to die, I’m not going down with you.” With that, the other youth crushed his teleportation jade token, vanishing from the spot in an instant. His departure only compounded the plight of the two already wounded. With one less ally, facing the wolf pack became even more daunting. “I’ll fight to the end! I’ll at least bring back a wolf fang for my mother!” The first youth gritted his teeth, brandishing his sword as he charged forward, slashing at one of the wind wolves. “Stay right here! Don’t wander off!” Xiao Junheng watched the scene unfold, his expression growing grim. Especially when he saw the two still clinging to fighting the wolves instead of breaking their jade tokens to escape, his handsome face darkened further. After placing the little girl he’d dragged along onto a tree branch, he snapped off a piece and thrust it into her hands. “Cover yourself with this. The wolves won’t see you.” Yue’er’s lips twitched. Watching the youth shove a branch into her hands before dashing forward, she rolled her eyes in blatant disregard, silently expressing her utter exasperation. A leafy branch held in front of her would make her invisible to the wolves? This youth was quite tall, yet his brain seemed to be rather slow. And ahead lay a pack of wolves—at least a dozen or twenty Wind Wolves! One of them was even a peak-level Sacred Beast. Wasn’t he just running to his death? Could the three of them really take on a peak-level Sacred Beast alpha and a dozen Sacred Beast-level Wind Wolves? Perched in the tree, she toyed with the branch in her hand. Those two had teleportation jade tablets at their waists—if they truly reached a dead end, they might have a sliver of hope to save themselves. But that boy, who looked decent enough but clearly wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed? Not so sure about him. So, should she just leave? Or should she go help them? Her small face was etched with conflict. She had never encountered this particular pack before. Unlike lions, they didn’t bolt at her sight. She knew she couldn’t outfight so many wolves in a coordinated attack. But if she unleashed her ancient aura, would those three detect it? While she hesitated, Xiao Junheng had already charged forward, sword raised. The two youths’ eyes lit up with surprise and hope when they saw him. “Second Young Master!” They hadn’t expected to encounter Xiao Junheng here, their faces lighting up with excitement. Among the younger generation of the Xiao family, aside from the prodigy Xiao Junyan, Xiao Junheng’s prowess was unmatched!
