Chapter 42: The Destined Son-in-Law (4)
Three days later, just as Su Chen had expected. Wherever a Child of Destiny appeared, trouble was never far behind. Without warning, the once-calm mountain range erupted into a beast tide.
Su Chen ran into a group of panicked Xia family juniors. They told him the Xia contingent had been ambushed by demon beasts, and he naturally rushed to help.
"Young Master Mu Chen… that's a Spirit Vein Realm demon beast!"
Xia Rou hesitated. Though Mu Chen had changed from before and had even defeated the Xia family's top genius, Xia Chenfeng, old prejudices died hard.
'People carry mountains of bias in their hearts,' Su Chen thought with exasperation.
"Hurry up and lead the way. If we're too late, we'll only be collecting corpses."
Under Su Chen's urging, Xia Rou guided him toward Xia Chenfeng's position. The Xia family juniors had suffered heavy casualties. Their opponent was a newly advanced Spirit Vein Realm demon beast: the Gale Demon Wolf King, accompanied by over a dozen lesser wolves.
The Xia juniors stood no chance. Even with Xia Chenfeng's many trump cards, the cunning wolf king methodically wore them down. Once those cards ran out, the entire group would become nothing more than food for the pack.
"Damn it! How could a Spirit Vein Realm wolf king appear here?"
