583 Shadow Wolf and Traitors!
Under the cover of the night, a few shadow wolves hidden in the darkness took a small path in the borderline mountain. They had come from the demon world to the human world. Their goal was clear: they were here for the Tinder Sutra.
They seemed to be very familiar with the nearby roads. Even the mountain roads in the human world seemed to be walked by them many times. They were very clear about the patrol routes of the human soldiers who were patrolling nearby. After waiting for a while, they glanced at the patrolling soldiers who had just passed by and easily detected the pattern. They leaped over the gaps in the patrol, crossed the human patrol defense line, and ran toward the human world.
These shadow wolves naturally didn’t come to the human world at will. Moreover, from how they had skillfully crossed the patrol line, they knew that the demons must have a spy in the human world. It had been a long time, and he was in a high position.
They sneaked all the way and hid in the shadows, not revealing themselves at all. Later, they arrived at a dilapidated stone house, which seemed to be an abandoned Hunter’s hut. Before the demon world’s large-scale invasion, many humans lived near the borderline mountain. They relied on the mountain for their livelihood. Although the borderline mountain was dangerous, there were many exotic animals in the mountain, so they lived quite comfortably.
!!
However, the demons eventually crossed the borderline mountains and came to the human world. The war between the two sides began. The residents near the borderline mountains were moved away by the officials of the human world. As for the houses left behind, no one cared about them.
And now, these dilapidated houses were used as signs. Some of them had a large amount of space dug underground as the temporary foothold of the demon clan in the human world. As for others, they were used as the meeting place for the demons and the traitors of the human world.
In the shadows, a few shadow wolves looked at each other. Then, through some kind of long-distance communication method, they contacted the traitor who was the closest to them. Soon, the traitor responded and came over.
The wolves smiled and sent a few more messages.
[Don’t forget to bring blood!]
In a residence, a rank-nine Grandmaster was sneering at the words displayed on the communicator in his hand. He did not destroy the communicator in anger. After all, this device was not not his, it could not be guaranteed that the other party would notice the damage and be on guard.
“That traitor… Take him away and serve him well!”
The Grandmaster put away his communicator and squinted his eyes as he spoke to the law enforcement officers standing at the side. The traitor, on the other hand, was lying on the ground, half-dead and unconscious.
A few law enforcement officers roughly dragged the traitor by his feet and brought him out.
As for the Grandmaster, he originally wanted to go and capture the demons, but after thinking about it, he felt that it wasn’t too safe to go alone, so he started seeking for reinforcements.
In just a few minutes, the Grandmasters who were already nearby rushed over. Although there were not many human powerhouses, they could still bring out 30 to 40 rank-nine Grandmasters. Now, most of these powerhouses were patrolling near the mountain.
“Zhou, what’s the matter? Why did you call us over in such a hurry?”
An old man with red hair and a child-like face arrived first. Although he looked very young, those who were familiar with him knew that this Grandmaster was already more than 100 years old. In this era where the average age of a rank-nine was only 60 to 70, a 100-year-old Grandmaster was considered a senior!
“That’s right. If a demon sneaks in while we’re not around, it’ll be trouble for us!”
Another rank-nine Grandmaster arrived. He had a shaved head and his upper body was bare. The muscles all over his body were knotted together. One look and one could tell that he liked to train his physical body to the point of it being almost iron-like.
A few more came, most of whom were Venerables and Grandmasters. After all, there were only 30 to 40 Grandmasters. Moreover, the area of the mountain was pretty huge. The Grandmaster from before was already very surprised that two rank-nines had come to his aid!
“I found a traitor and learned about the hideout location. Guess what happened next? Before I could destroy the communication device, a demon sent a message. What do you guys think? Is this a big deal?”
“If I wasn’t worried that there might be rank-nine or even a higher-level monster this time, I wouldn’t have brought you guys!”
Old Zhou said arrogantly. Originally, he was only here to catch the traitor. He didn’t expect to find out more about the situation. It was really worth it. Moreover, according to his past experience, once he could catch the demons, he could use their communication devices to continue to track the rest of the hideouts down…
The group of them rose into the air and quickly flew to the address given on the communicator.
In the dilapidated hunter’s cabin, a few shadow wolves were lying on their stomachs and resting in boredom. They traveled from the demon world to the human world using a shortcut. Even with their strength as rank-nine demons, they still needed time to recuperate. Moreover, they haven’t had a meal for days, so they were hungry. However, It was not bad to be in the human world. There would be beast worshipers who would occasionally send blood for sustenance.
As a wolf thought about its meal, it drooled from the corner of its mouth. However, very quickly, it raised its head with a serious expression and called out softly a few times, reminding its companions that there was an expert passing by and that they had to restrain their aura.
One, two, three…
“Something’s not right. Why are there so many powerhouses coming this way?”
Had they been exposed, or was there a problem with the Demon Realm?
After some simple consideration, the shadow wolves decided to bide their time. However, they were still prepared to escape at any instance of trouble. With their affinity to the shadows, they could travel directly through the shadows and flee. Even if their combat strength was not too strong, when it came to escaping, even an ordinary rank-nine master would not keep up!
“We’ve been exposed!”
Sensing the aura of several powerhouses nearby, the leading shadow wolf suddenly burst forward. It was very clear that they had been exposed. Although they didn’t know how they were exposed, it wasn’t important. They had to escape first.
In an instant, several powerful shadow wolves made a decision at once. They decided to split up and run. They sneaked into the shadows in different directions and quickly left.
However, even though they were fast, the human Grandmasters, who had been prepared for this, were even faster.
From the sky, searchlights shone down one after another, illuminating the entire area and leaving no shadows in the surroundings.
For a moment, the few shadow wolves were restricted by their paths. They couldn’t escape through the shadows if there were none.
Seeing that it was impossible to escape, the wolves no longer hid and jumped out from the shadows. They walked in front of the human powerhouses and bared their fangs with fierce looks!
