The three of them approached the Teleportation Gate.
"Where are we heading?" No One was choosing the location for teleportation.
"Forest of Resentment," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King said leisurely.
No One simply followed through and teleported the group to the Forest of Resentment.
"We'll stay here for a while, it won't be long."
The little fox jumped to the ground and curled up to rest.
"Okay."
The Forest of Resentment wasn't a challenging area for No One and Snow Moon, so they weren't worried.
The monsters here ranged from level 30 at the lowest to 59 at the highest.
Nothing too concerning.
Oh, look, a Two-Colored Rabbit, level 39.
Eliminated.
Oh, look, a Wandering Wolf, level 59.
Eliminated.
Nothing too concerning.
...
"While we wait, let me tell you some little things," suggested the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King.
Neither of them found any problem with that suggestion.
No One sat cross-legged on the ground, ready to listen.
"Is there anything you're curious about?"
Snow Moon raised her hand.
"Master's eyes..."Where did they come from?"
"An interesting and reasonable question," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King said, crossing her arms and nodding in approval.
"Alright! Master will recount it with a memory!"
Huh?
. . .
No one knows how many years ago...
When the Heavenly Demon In Black took in the blind little fox at the Society In Black.
Despite having lost her sight, that small fox never ceased her training...
She even put in many times the effort of the other members.
Unless she fell asleep from exhaustion, anyone in the Society In Black would see her practicing whenever she was awake.
With either the Heavenly Demon In Black or the other members, and at times by herself.
So much so that during that period, the First World had a nickname for one of the most terrifying assassins of the Society In Black.
The Blind One. No Eyes.
No one knew when she would come or when she would leave. Many heavily-guarded places in the Empire and the Holy Nation, or the mountains in The East, could not escape the blade of the Blind One.
At that time, there was a saying amongst the upper class.
Stolen novel; please report.
To harm without hands, to kill without eyes.
To harm oneself without directly using one's hands.
The one who kills does not necessarily have to see the target.
Originally, this phrase was used to refer to two famous individuals of that era: General of the Empire Mac Dong and the Blind One.
But later, it became a saying about how someone could harm another without needing to do it openly and directly.
At that time, The Blind One was, of course, the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King.
Every assassination was almost without a trace, without a shadow.
An assassin could transform into an animal to avoid the gaze of others, slipping through the smallest gaps to infiltrate the most securely guarded places.
How could anyone know?
But on that day, at the Wudang residence,
there was an old monster that needed to be eliminated.
Naturally, the Heavenly Demon In Black sent the Blind One.
Yet, when the Blind One entered, she found him waiting for her.
Enjoying a dish of vegetarian noodles.
He even had two cups of tea ready for him and her.
The old man deliberately tapped the chopsticks on the teacup, inviting her.
Initially, the Blind One was extremely cautious.
Until she sensed the strange aura from him.
Somehow, even though her eyes could see nothing, she could see something very clearly in the endless darkness.
The Time Twin Eyes.
So beautiful.
The old man took a sip of tea, as if to wash away the dryness of the fried noodles he had just eaten.
"Ah. Welcome, Thousand Tails Yaoguai King!"
At that moment, the Blind One was taken aback."You've got the wrong person."
The old man placed his tea cup on the table and smiled.
"No, I've just recognized you early."
"Your future is quite interesting."
"Who would have thought the one about to kill me would be the Ruler Of All Yaoguais."
"I am not..." The Blind One was truly confused at that moment.
"Not yet." The old man interrupted her.
He stood up and began to approach the Blind One.
Instinctively, she drew her weapon, ready to fight.
One step, then another.
With one more step, he would be within range of her blade, and his neck would be cut.
Yet, he did not take another step.
"No need to rush, tonight I won't make it past."
"I only ask you to bring me to the Heavenly Demon In Black. Right after that, these eyes will belong to you."
The Blind One remained silent.
This assassination request was direct from the Heavenly Demon In Black.
Her elder sister had instructed her to grant any request except for sparing his life if the Blind One deemed it suitable for him.
The Blind One had no choice but to nod in agreement.
.
.
.
"Later, when arriving at the Heavenly Demon In Black's Grand Hall, the old man..."
Rustling.
A nearby bush shook.
Another wolf?
Rustling.Rustling.
Thud.
Thud, thud!
Wait...
The bush suddenly tore apart.
The ground cracked open.
A massive mound of earth emerged.
Then it all shattered, revealing a gigantic monster.
No One and Snow Moon widened their eyes.
Only the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King remained completely calm.
"Ah. It's here."
Snow Moon, terrified and instinctively ready to unleash her skills, was stopped by No One who grabbed her hand.
"Stay calm; if you attack, you'll pull aggro."
Where its eyes should be, there grew two large green tea rose blooms.
Its fur consisted of layered upon layers of countless leaves.
The hind legs were made of something like wood, while the forelegs remained those of a wild beast.
The fur was a light blue, a shade lighter than the roses by its eyes.
It appeared very serene, its fangs not yet bared.
As large as a row of houses.
The words above its head clearly identified the wolf.
[Lv699 The Forest Wolf Yaoguai - Silvacanis ]
Oh my God.
No wonder so many people on the forum were complaining.Meeting it means death.
Level 699.
Why would they let a World Boss of this level wander around like this?
"Yo, Sam Sam, long time no see!"
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King cheerfully waved her hand.
The wolf's voice boomed loudly.
It had a deep voice.
"Amethyst... Long time no see."
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King happily leapt in front of the Forest Wolf Yaoguai.
"I need to enter your garden."
The Forest Wolf Yaoguai seemed to agree, lowering its body down.
Its head touched the ground.
Then its mouth slowly opened.
Unlike the terrifying scene one might expect of a horrific, bloody maw,
its wooden tongue curled into a staircase.
It bore intricate patterns of countless flowers that No One and Snow Moon had never seen before etched along it.
Just moments before, the tongue had seemed alive.
Now it stood still, solid as if it had always been that way.
Rather than leading them into its throat, it led them to a gateway in the roof of its mouth, which, if followed, would be where its brain should be.
Even its lower jaw transformed into two gardens of vines.
The upper jaw turned into numerous pots brimming with flowers of various colors.
"What are you two waiting for, follow me!"
"We're headed to the Garden of the Wolf!"
Both No One and Snow Moon exchanged somewhat apprehensive glances.As the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King leapt onto the first step, she transformed directly into her human form.
Finally, they decided to ascend the staircase.
[Players No One and Snow Moon have discovered a new area.]
[Welcome to the Garden of the Wolf God.]
