Chapter 99

In fact, among the eight Snow Cloud Carvers, some were stronger and some were weaker. The five strongest ones all flew at the front, targeting the warriors of the Qing Shi tribe, while the relatively weaker three followed behind, with the one that attacked Bu Ye being one of the weaker ones.

However, weak as they were, they were not that weak. At least, they still had about seventy to eighty percent of the strength of the strongest Snow Cloud Carver.

It was precisely because of this that the other two cross-worlders who faced the Snow Cloud Carvers were also in a sorry state, with one of them even injured.

The Qing Shi tribe warriors were relatively better off. For one, they themselves were powerful fighters, and secondly, they had the assistance of the cross-worlders. Even so, two of the Qing Shi tribe warriors were injured, including Da Li.

The Snow Cloud Carver that Da Li faced was the strongest, and he was accidentally scratched on the shoulder by it, now bleeding profusely.

In contrast, Bu Ye's performance stood out. Bu Ye looked disheveled, but he not only avoided injury but also managed to slow down the flight of a Snow Cloud Carver, allowing Da Qi to catch up and capture it, making it the only achievement among the fifteen people.

At this moment, Qi Yanbin, Yang Ming, and Guo Su, who knew Bu Ye's background, were not surprised. To them, nothing Bu Ye, the modern Wu Song, did was unexpected. However, the other cross-worlders were different; some looked at Bu Ye as if he were a monster.

The combat strength and determination Bu Ye displayed were clearly on a higher level than theirs!

To put it bluntly, in this world, in this red light test, since everything was led by the Qing Shi tribe, they had unconsciously positioned themselves as mere onlookers, while Bu Ye was fully engaged. The difference in seriousness was evident, and this was reflected in their combat performance, making it easy to see the significant gap. This gap even made them feel that they were on a lower level of understanding compared to Bu Ye. This level of understanding was not about strength but about life perspective.

They didn't know that Bu Ye was a cancer survivor who had once died. What he valued and cared about was already different from ordinary people. When everyone thought only a fool would exert all their strength, he was the one who did. But could he be called a fool? He was not in the same world as normal people; normalcy was something he had long since disdained.

Bu Ye's performance was impressive, and the other cross-worlders felt a mix of envy, jealousy, fear, and even some secretly cursed him as a fool.

However, these feelings did not affect the judgment of the Qing Shi tribe warriors, who only respected the strong.

Da Li, seemingly forgetting Bu Ye's doubts about the strength of the Qing Shi tribe three days ago, looked at him and said, "Well done!"

Bu Ye didn't take credit and simply replied, "It's nothing."

"I'll remember this. Although this Snow Cloud Carver won't free you from slavery, it will give you many conveniences. We'll discuss it in detail when we return."

"Okay."

"Screech!!"

A sharp, angry, and unwilling cry echoed in the sky. The seven Snow Cloud Carvers that had flown back into the sky were still circling, refusing to leave.

They had failed to kill anyone and had even lost one of their own, suffering a significant loss. This was entirely due to their underestimation of the cross-worlders. These cross-worlders were not ordinary humans of this world but had all awakened their Heart Clouds and knew the Constellation Secrets.

The seven Snow Cloud Carvers were unwilling to leave but dared not come down again, waiting for more companions to arrive.

However, at this moment, Da Li and the others were no longer concerned with the Snow Cloud Carvers and instead looked towards the north of the canyon.

The greenish-white figures that had rushed down the hill earlier had already reached the canyon, forming a half-circle and gradually closing in on the giant bear. Upon closer inspection, they were giant wolves with greenish-white fur, as large as calves!

Under the threat of the giant wolves, the giant bear roared, but its continuous retreat revealed its fear. It did not want to fight the pack of wolves.

There were about twelve to thirteen giant wolves, each baring their white fangs, their breaths forming white vapor, and they continued to advance, determined to bring down the giant bear!

"Roar..."

The giant bear, feeling its life threatened, suddenly let out a loud roar and stood up, its body rising to nearly four meters, finally making the giant wolves stop.

However, the next moment, the giant wolves suddenly lunged at the bear without warning!

The fastest giant wolf reached the bear in an instant and bit into its soft belly!

"Roar!!"

The standing bear, enraged, pressed down with its body, and its massive paw struck the wolf's back!

"Bang!!"

"Ow!"

The bear's paw hit its target, sending the giant wolf flying with a惨嚎.

But the second and third giant wolves had already rushed in, one biting the bear's left side and the other the right side!

The bear suddenly swung its body to the right, knocking the wolf on the right side away, but it was bitten on the left side. The bear's thick skin was tough, but the giant wolf was also fierce, and one bite drew blood. When the bear swung its body to the right, the wolf on the left didn't let go, tearing the wound even larger.

"Whoosh," "Whoosh," "Whoosh"...

The fourth, fifth, and sixth giant wolves...

In an instant, the remaining giant wolves rushed in, almost completely burying the bear, leaving the onlookers in shock.

The bear's cries of pain echoed from the wolf pack, clearly indicating it was at a disadvantage.

A hero can't withstand a crowd, and a tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves. Today, the cross-worlders witnessed the latter firsthand.

At this moment, Da Li suddenly said, "Charge!"

Charge where?

Da Li's actions were the answer; he charged towards the battle between the wolves and the bear!

Bu Ye and the others could only quickly follow, rapidly approaching the battle.

At this point, it was likely because of Bu Ye's good performance that Da Qi's attitude towards him had improved. While running, Da Qi explained, "These snow wolves are cruel and greedy. Once they see us, they will never let us go, even if it takes them three days and three nights. In this snowy mountain, any open area is disadvantageous to us, especially at night, when these beasts have excellent night vision. We must enter the mountains. Instead of slowly dealing with them, we should take this opportunity to severely injure them."

As he spoke, Da Li, who was in the lead, put his wolf-tooth club back on his back and took out his bow and arrows.

The four warriors, including Da Qi, also quickly put away their clubs, took out their bows, and nocked their arrows, rushing forward at high speed.

The wolves were in the critical phase of their attack on the bear, and none of them paid attention to the approaching group. Da Li and the others were fast, and in a moment, they were only fifty meters away from the battle.

Da Li suddenly raised his bow, drew the string, and let it go when the bow was fully drawn!

A snow wolf had just pounced on the bear's back when Da Li's arrow arrived!

"Whoosh!!"

The arrow hit the snow wolf's front legs, causing it to stumble and fly backward, letting out a painful cry.

The cry immediately caught the attention of the other snow wolves, but before they could turn around, the arrows from Da Qi and the others had already arrived!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!"

All four arrows hit their targets!

Each snow wolf that was hit was deflected, but none of them died, and their fighting ability was not significantly reduced!

The snow wolves' defense was also astonishing!

As the snow wolves turned to look, the bear, which was already half-dead, suddenly attacked, roaring and swatting away two snow wolves, ignoring the two still on its back, and rushed towards the other end of the canyon, covered in blood.

At this moment, a particularly strong pure white snow wolf let out a loud howl, and the two wolves on the bear's back jumped off.

"Whoosh!"

Da Li's second arrow arrived, aiming for the largest pure white lead wolf!

However, the lead wolf suddenly lunged forward, completely dodging the arrow!

"Awooo!!"

The wolf suddenly stretched its neck and howled at the sky. In the next moment, it swiftly dodged another arrow and charged towards the group!

As the lead wolf moved, the remaining ten or so snow wolves quickly scattered and charged towards the group.

At the same time, a screech echoed from the sky, and the seven Snow Cloud Carvers swooped down!

A pincer attack!

The snow wolves in front and the Snow Cloud Carvers behind, the group was now surrounded, but Da Li did not stop. Instead, he charged even faster!

Ten meters!

Da Li's bowstring rang again!

"Bang!!"

At a distance of only ten meters, the arrow was so fast it seemed to vanish. The lead wolf suddenly changed direction but couldn't dodge it!

"Whoosh!"

The arrow, over a meter long, hit the lead wolf's back, causing blood to spurt and deflecting its charge.

Da Qi and the others also shot their arrows, achieving a significant result. One of the Qing Shi tribe warriors even shot a snow wolf in the neck, killing it instantly.

Three meters!

The fastest snow wolf that wasn't hit by an arrow was now only three meters away from Da Li, growling and pouncing!

Another one followed closely behind!

But Da Li was undaunted. He threw away his rhinoceros horn bow, grabbed the two-meter-long wolf-tooth club from his back, and with a roar, swung it forward! His towering figure, contrasted with the two calf-sized snow wolves, made him look even more formidable in the icy canyon. At this moment, Bu Ye and the other cross-worlders finally saw the true ferocity of the Qing Shi tribe warriors!

The Qing Shi tribe warriors were never afraid to fight any fierce beasts head-on. What they feared was the wolves' greed and cunning, following them in the shadows, attacking one person today and another tomorrow, disrupting the entire group. This was their nightmare. Now, a direct confrontation was exactly what they wanted!

"Bang!!"

"Ow..."

Da Li's wolf-tooth club struck the first snow wolf, causing it to fly away with its skin torn and flesh exposed. The club's momentum was spent, and it had no power left. Facing the second snow wolf that pounced, Da Li let go of the club, drew a short knife from his back with his right hand, and grabbed the snow wolf's head with his left hand, stabbing it in the neck!

"Whoosh!!"

Although Da Li's left forearm was bitten by the snow wolf, his short knife plunged deep into the wolf's neck, almost to the hilt!

The snow wolf that was hit by the club might not die, but the second one with the knife in its neck definitely wouldn't survive!

But Da Li wasn't done yet!

It was hard to imagine how such a large and strong man could be so agile. He suddenly stopped, pivoted on his right foot, and spun to the left, dragging the snow wolf that was still biting his left arm to the side. At the same time, he pulled the knife out and stabbed again, repeating the action three times, almost severing the wolf's head and completely ending its life!

"Bang!!"

When the snow wolf hit the ground, it was motionless, blood gushing out and quickly staining the snow red!

Only then did Da Li shout loudly, "Form a circle!!"

PS: Isn't Da Li awesome? Haha.
