Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

If anyone else heard this, they would definitely think that there was something wrong with Zhou Xiaoli.

However, Wei Chiyu was stunned for a moment before saying, “Give me the bow and arrow.”

At this moment, the battle between the wolves had reached the climax.

The white wolf king’s side suffered heavy casualties. Only four or five wolves were still fighting, and they were almost at their wits’ ends.

Although the gray wolf’s pack attacked fiercely, they did not gain much advantage under the white wolf’s desperate counterattacks.

Wei Chiyu adjusted his posture and nocked his bow.

Just as the gray wolf king launched its final attack on the white wolf king, an arrow tore through the air, whistling as it went.

It pierced through the gray wolf king’s chest!

Zhou Xiaoli could not help but look at the young man beside her.

“Impressive!” Zhou Xiaoli praised.

The corners of Wei Chiyu’s lips curled up. “So-so.”

As soon as he finished speaking, another arrow cut through the air, whistling yet again as it went. Another arrow pierced through the gray wolf’s heart.

A mournful wolf howl rang out.

The white wolf king seemed to understand that someone was helping it. It led the wolf pack and launched a fierce counter-attack.

The gray wolf king was killed, and the wolf pack lost its leader. With the help of outsiders i.e. Wei Chiyu’s accurate shooting skills, the white wolf king easily won the fight.

Zhou Xiaoli could not help but sigh. The wars happening in the natural world are tragic as well.

Just as she was feeling emotional about it, the white wolf king walked straight to the tree where they were suddenly.

Wei Chiyu immediately nocked his bow and arrow.

Zhou Xiaoli also became vigilant.

However, the white wolf king did not attack them. Instead, it howled and nodded at Zhou Xiaoli a few times before looking up at her.

Zhou Xiaoli pursed her lips and asked uncertainly, “It seemed to be telling us something?”

Sure enough, in the next second, the white wolf king bent its front legs and knelt down. After howling, it stood up and turned to walk forward.

After taking a step, he turned to look at Zhou Xiaoli.

“It seems that he wants us to follow it.”

With that, Zhou Xiaoli jumped down from the tree.

Wei Chiyu was worried, so he jumped down after her as well. At the same time, he took out his dagger and walked in front of Zhou Xiaoli.

The white wolf king did not attack them. Instead, it brought them to a cave.

Howl~

The white wolf king let out a short howl at Zhou Xiaoli and looked at a certain spot on the stone wall.

Zhou Xiaoli pointed at a cave on the mountain wall with uncertainty. “Here?”

The white wolf king howled again.

Zhou Xiaoli was about to step forward and remove the vines blocking the entrance when Wei Chiyu stopped her. “Let me do it.”

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out with his hands and lifted the vine curtain.

When the vine curtain was lifted, Zhou Xiaoli’s eyes widened. “Ah, it’s a wolf cub!”

The wolf pup’s fur was silver-gray. It was small, furry and looked a little cute.

Judging from the color of its fur, it was very likely the white wolf king’s cub.

However, when she turned around to look at the white wolf king, she realized that there was no trace of the white wolf king behind her!

“Eh, where’s the white wolf? Why has it gone?”

Wei Chiyu looked at the wolf pup in front of him and frowned. “It seems that it has entrusted his cub to us.”

Zhou Xiaoli recalled the look in the white wolf king’s eyes when he looked at her, and then she looked at the pitiful little wolf. She couldn’t help but say, “It seems so. Let’s bring it home first.”

Wei Chiyu nodded and reached out to grab the wolf cub.

Seeing Wei Chiyu approach, the wolf pup immediately howled. It seemed to be very afraid and even revealed its sharp claws at him.

Wei Chiyu, who had almost been scratched by it, retracted his hand and said coldly, “It’s too wild. Let’s kill it. Wolf meat is delicious and the younger ones would be tender too.”

Zhou Xiaoli: “...”

The little wolf seemed to understand human language. It immediately bristled its fur and bared its teeth at Wei Chiyu.

Zhou Xiaoli said helplessly, “We can’t kill it. If it really doesn’t want to come with us, we can only...”

Before Zhou Xiaoli could finish speaking, the wolf pup barked at her in a childish voice and crawled towards her with its short legs.

His chubby, furry body coupled with his four short legs made him look adorable as he walked.

Obviously, Zhou Xiaoli could not resist the cute little thing.

Instantly, her gaze softened. “So cute!”

As she spoke, she reached out to touch it tentatively.

Before Wei Chiyu could say anything, the wolf cub, who had just bristled its fur, took the initiative to rub its head against Zhou Xiaoli’s hand, seemingly for her to touch.

...

It couldn’t be more obedient in front of her.

Zhou Xiaoli immediately made a decision after touching it. “I’ll raise it.”

Wei Chiyu, who had been treated differently by the wolf cub, looked at it with a meaningful gaze.

After carrying the wolf pup, the two of them went to deal with the wolves’ corpses.

—

Under the setting sun, Zhang Lan’s family stood at the door and looked in the direction of the mountain behind them.

Zhou Xiaoli had repeatedly promised that nothing would happen with Wei Chiyu around.

However, she was still worried.

Seeing that it was already evening and the two of them had yet to return, Zhang Lan became a little anxious.

Many villagers were still gossiping privately. They said that since it was evening and the two of them had yet to leave the mountain, it is very likely that something had happened to them.

It was also said that this was Zhou Xiaoli’s bad luck after getting the wild boars. Perhaps she had already been eaten by the wolves.

...

Just as the villagers speculated, a shout suddenly came from the street.

“Look, the demon from the Lu Family and the daughter of the eldest Zhou son are dragging wolves down from the mountain!”

Instantly, it caused a storm in the village.

Many people heard the yell and ran out of their houses to take a look.

They swarmed over to the entrance of the village.

Sure enough, Zhou Xiaoli and Wei Chiyu came down the mountain unscathed.

Not only that, the cart that they were pulling behind them was full of the wolves’ bodies!

Immediately, cries of surprise and envy rose and fell among the villagers.

The two of them entered the village as if no one was around.

Many of the people who had previously despised Zhou Xiaoli and ignored her, were now smiling and moving closer to her.

“Little Li, how many are there?”

“Little Li, did you destroy the wolf pack?”

“Tsk tsk, the wolf meat should be delicious, right?”

If there’s nothing to gain from, she’s a jinx. If there was, she’s Little Li.

These villagers completely showed how mercenary the world was.

Zhou Xiaoli answered their questions half-heartedly.

Finally, they arrived at their doorstep.

Because it was already late, they planned to go to the mayor’s house tomorrow to receive the bounty reward. Therefore, they directly pulled the cart home.

The villagers were all gathered outside Zhou Xiaoli’s house. They watched with envy as the cart was pulled into the courtyard.

“Ah! Why is there a living one here!”

At this moment, someone saw the wolf cub following Zhou Xiaoli and exclaimed in surprise.

When they heard Zhou Xiaoli say that she had picked it up and wanted to rear it, they were all in disbelief and shock.

“These wolves killed a lot of our livestock. Why are you raising this thing?!”

“That’s right, that’s right.”

Zhou Xiaoli wanted to say, “You guys are overstepping the boundary. I’ll take care of it if I like.”

In the end, she only sneered. “I wanted to raise it to guard the house and to prevent people from prying into my things.”

The villagers who wanted to take the opportunity to ask for the wolf meat immediately choked and laughed awkwardly.

“She’s just a child and has simple thoughts. Can a wolf be the same as a dog? One can raise dogs on leftovers, but wolves have to eat meat every meal!”

“Also, dogs can be raised as guards and would be very useful to the family! What’s the use of raising a wolf? It’s purely a waste of money!”
