Seeing the snow, Uncle Liu was about to push the snow away. However, through the crack, he suddenly saw a pack of wolves a short distance away.

Seeing this, Uncle Liu could not help holding his breath.

What bad luck he had! How could he meet a pack of wolves once again?

It must be that the snow was so heavy yesterday that these wolves could not find anything to eat and then came out for food!

He was afraid that they would not leave for some time.

Seeing this, Uncle Liu frowned tightly. How long should he wait for these wolves to leave?

Uncle Liu's forehead knotted in a frown because he knew that these wolves had acute senses of smell.

If these wolves found him here, he was afraid that this time he would not be as lucky as the last time.

After all, the cave he hid in only had one exit.

Now, Uncle Liu could only resign himself to his fate. He prayed in his heart that this pack of wolves would leave very soon.

Although the accumulated snow was thick after the heavy snow last night, it had been frozen hard because of the cold weather.

Though it was better for walking, it could be really dangerous.

After all, some snow was not frozen hard, so people may miss their steps. Therefore, all the people slowed their stride.

However, they still missed some steps accidentally.

Yang Zijin asked everyone to walk forward hand in hand with each other.

If someone missed his or her step, at least he or she would not fall with the people on the sides pulling him or her.

Having walked a long way, Yan Lingjun could not help gasping for breath.

Seeing that, Yan Luo asked him, "How are you? Can you hold out any longer?"

"Well, mother... I'd like to take a bio break." Yan Lingjun did not want the whole procession to be delayed because of him.

However, after walking such a long way, he did have to answer the call of nature.

So he told Yan Luo that.

Hearing that, Yan Luo nodded and said, "OK. You can go. Just let everyone stop to have a rest after such a long walk."

Hearing that, all the people sat down and had a rest.

Seeing that Yan Lingjun walked to the side, Liu Ling quickly followed him and asked, "May I go with you?"

"No, thanks. I just want to take a bio break, and I'll go back soon. You go and have a rest. We need to continue on our journey later."

Yan Lingjun said to Liu Ling.

Liu Ling nodded and stopped following him.

However, after walking a short distance away, Yan Lingjun thought that other people could still see him. Then, he walked aside a little farther.

When he thought that the place was OK, he started to answer the call of nature.

When he finished, he felt that someone was staring at him from behind. However, he did not realize that at first.

Yan Lingjun laughed, "Liu Ling, how could you look down upon me to that extent? What can happen at such a short distance? It's no need of following me."

Having finished his words, Yan Lingjun found that no one answered him. He quickly looked back, finding that a white wolf was staring at him from behind.

Seeing this, Yan Lingjun was shocked and started trembling.

He did not take his sword with him when he left and took this bio break. He might be able to have an attempt to fight against this snow wolf if he had the sword.

But now, he had nothing in his hand. How could he fight with this wolf?

He regretted stopping Liu Ling from coming with him just now.

But how useless it was to regret at that moment!

That snow wolf was staring at Yan Lingjun with cold eyes. Its mouth was half-open, blowing out heat.

It seemed that the wolf would spring on the next moment!

Seeing that, Yan Lingjun looked around and realized that if he ran away at this time, he would definitely not be able to outrun this snow wolf in front of him.

However, since that snow wolf had not sprung on him until now, it must also have some scruples.

The only thing he could do now was to wait, dawdling together with that wolf.

When others found that he hadn't been back for so long, they would come to look for him.

Yan Lingjun calmed himself down. However, beads of sweat continued to roll down from his forehead.

After a long while, Yan Luo and Ruan Yien looked at the place where Yan Lingjun had left. Why hadn't he come back for so long?

They were worried about him.

Then, Yan Luo walked up to Liu Ling and said, "You go and see why Lingjun had not come back after such a long time."

"Yes, Your Highness." Liu Ling replied to her and was about to turn around.

At that moment, all the people heard a wolf howling.

This made all the people nervous.

Yan Luo looked at Ruan Yien and said, "It's the howl of snow wolves. Gosh, could it be Lingjun..."

Before Ruan Yien could finish his words, Yan Luo quickly grabbed the sword in his hands and ran to the place where Yan Lingjun had left.

"Your Highness..." Ruan Yien called Yan Luo and followed her.

Seeing this, Liu Ling and Chu Tianming also followed them quickly.

At that time, Yan Wanchu was going to follow them, but Runyu pulled at her.

Yan Wanchu looked at Runyu and was about to say something, but Runyu said first, "Wanchu, I go with you."

"OK." Yan Wanchu nodded at Runyu, and then they followed those people.

Jiang Wei said to Yang Zijin, "Your Ladyship. You stay here, and I'll go and have a look."

"No. Let's go together." Yang Zijin shook her head and stood up.

Jiang Wei said with a worried look on her face, "Your Ladyship, you..."

"It doesn't matter. Besides, Pei Moning is with us, right?" Yang Zijin glanced at Pei Moning on the side and said.

Hearing that, Jiang Wei nodded. Then, they also followed those people.

Yan Lingjun did not expect that this snow wolf was so clever that it called over other wolves by howling.

After that snow wolf howled, Yan Lingjun saw the wolf coming towards him. He could not help but slump on the ground out of fright. He muttered silently that Liu Ling and the others would come over quickly.

Seeing that Yan Lingjun was not likely to attack it, that snow wolf was about to attack him.

Seeing this, Yan Lingjun frowned. What could he do? What could he do?

At that time, if a large number of snow wolves came, but Liu Ling and his parents hadn't rushed over, wouldn't he...

Thinking of this, Yan Lingjun could not help shaking his head. He thought he could not build all his hopes on them.

In his panic, Yan Lingjun touched his boots.

It suddenly occurred to him that he put a dagger in the boots before, so he quickly took it out.

Then, he stood up quickly.

Yan Lingjun held the dagger in his hands, targeting the snow wolf walking towards him.

Yan Lingjun told him in his heart, "Don't panic. Keep calm."

When that wolf got closer, Yan Lingjun fixed his eyes on it in case that it darted to him suddenly.

Sure enough, when the snow wolf approached Yan Lingjun again, it jumped up fiercely and bit at Yan Lingjun's neck.

The next moment, Yan Lingjun leaned away and waved the dagger, stabbing it into the wolf's eye.

Yan Lingjun felt a hot flow on his hand, knowing that he stabbed the right place.

However, although the wolf did not bite his neck, his arm was scratched by the snow wolf's sharp front paw when he was trying to avoid the wolf.

But Yan Lingjun did not have time to care about the pain at that time. Taking advantage of the snow wolf's eye injury, he pounced on the snow wolf again!

Because of the eye injury, its attacks became weaker.

After several turns, the snow wolf finally breathed its last.

At that time, apart from the injury on the arm, Yan Lingjun was also scratched in several places on his chest and face.

But these were only slight injuries, and the wounds were very shallow, not as deep as the wound on the arm.

Seeing his arm still bleeding, Yan Lingjun tore a piece of his clothes and was going to bind his arm up.

However, not far from him, several more wolves were walking towards him.

Seeing that, Yan Lingjun frowned tightly. It seemed that the pack of wolves had heard that wolf's howl.

Yan Lingjun had no time to bind up. He saw that pack of snow wolves were still some way off him.

Then, he lay down on the snow and breathed heavily. He had almost run out of his strength in the fight against that snow wolf just now.

He knew that if he dealt with the pack of snow wolves alone presently, he would end up being eaten by them.

However, if he could renew his strength, perhaps he would be able to hold on a bit longer.

He thought it would be OK when Liu Ling and others came, but perhaps... He was not able to hold on until they arrived.

When the pack of wolves approached closer, Yan Lingjun was about to try his best to fight with them.

However, at this time, he heard someone yelling, "Lingjun..."

It came from Yan Luo, his mother.

Hearing her voice, Yan Lingjun opened his eyes suddenly.

He was just to get up, and a snow wolf sprang on him.

Yan Lingjun tilted his head back to avoid it but caused his head to smash against the hard ice.

Immediately, Yan Lingjun felt dizzy and then fainted.

Yan Luo drew her sword quickly and rushed to that pack of snow wolves.

Ruan Yien glanced at Yan Lingjun lying on the ground but had no time to check him. He also drew his sword quickly and went to kill the snow wolves.

Liu Ling and Chu Tianming also joined them.

After several turns of the fight, they did not gain the upper hand.

After all, they had walked such a long way and lost a lot of energy. Besides, as the snow wolves lived in the snow mountain, they gained the upper hand by virtue of their living habits and agile action.

Yan Wanchu and Yang Zijin also came over later. Seeing that others were fighting fiercely against the snow wolves, some of which had been injured, Yan Wanchu put on a worried face.

Yan Wanchu turned to Runyu on her side. Before Yan Wanchu said something, Runyu comforted her, "Don't worry. It'll be OK."

Then, Runyu pinned the hair blown on Yan Wanchu's face by the wind behind her ears, turned, and walked to the side.

Runyu quickly walked into that pack of snow wolves, and one wolf fell with a flashing of his body.

Seeing that, Yan Wanchu uttered a sigh of relief. Then she quickly ran to Yan Lingjun.

Yan Wanchu found that Yan Lingjun was covered in blood, but she could not tell whether the blood belonged to him or that snow wolf lying beside him.

Yan Wanchu quickly crouched down and hugged him to sit up. She held Yan Lingjun's face and said, "Brother. Brother. Wake up! Wake up!"

Yan Lingjun's eyes remained close.

Seeing that, Yang Zijin also walked up to him and crouched down, putting her hand beneath Yan Lingjun's nose.

Then, she withdrew her hand and said to Yan Wanchu, "Don't worry. He was only in a dead faint."
