I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Chapter 58 Gale Wolf King

The boy carried a greatsword on his back, his high ponytail was casually tied up, and a hint of embarrassment appeared between his brows.

By this time, the area under the tree was surrounded by a pack of wolves, whose howls came from below, sounding quite angry.

Yun Qingyi glanced down and saw that among the hundreds of wolves, one of them, which was larger and had whiter and shinier fur than the others, was staring intently at the tree with sharp and fierce eyes, constantly howling.

Yun Qingyi recognized it; it was the loudest one.

For a moment, all three of them were speechless.

"Well, good morning, both of you," Xie Xiyan broke the silence first.

"I think it's still pretty bad," Yun Qingyi thought to herself. "What kind of good person would be trapped in a tree so early in the morning?"

Yun Qingyi had just seen it clearly. The white wolf under the tree was a well-known figure on the Cangling Continent's monster list. It wasn't that it was particularly powerful, but rather that this kind of wolf clan was known for its vengeful nature. If you offended it, it would hunt you down relentlessly unless your entire clan was wiped out.

“Swift Wind Demon Wolves.” Yun Qingrou said, looking at the hundreds of white wolves howling under the tree. She recognized the species of the wolf pack.

Yun Qingyi looked up at the young man before her, hesitating to speak: "Um, thank you, fellow Daoist..."

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was very clear.

Xie Xiyan touched his nose: "Fellow Daoist Yun, don't worry, they're all coming for me. I'll lure them away later."

"Hehe, kid, I'm afraid that won't work."

Ling Xuzi's voice appeared in Xie Xiyan's mind: "I forgot to tell you, this wolf pack is vengeful. You just accidentally blew up their den and took away the treasures in their territory. You even tried to lure them away. They will take a bite of any grass that has your scent on it."

Xie Xiyan: "..."

"Master, why didn't you say so sooner!"

"It's not too late to say now," Ling Xuzi said lazily, as if he were leisurely waiting to watch the show.

……

Before Yun Qingyi could even ask him how he managed to break through the encirclement of hundreds of wolves and lure them away...

Xie Xiyan said in a muffled voice, "It seems we can't lure them away now."

Yun Qingyi, Yun Qingrou: ...

Yun Qingyi stared at Xie Xiyan speechlessly. Xie Xiyan's ears were burning with embarrassment, but he still said seriously, "But don't worry, Fellow Daoist Yun, even if we can't lure them away, my sword will not allow these demon wolves to harm you two."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Qingyi wanted to check Xie Xiyan's cultivation level.

As expected, I couldn't see it.

This means that either her cultivation level is higher than hers or she possesses some kind of magical artifact that conceals her cultivation level.

Yun Qingyi preferred the former, since she hadn't hidden her cultivation level when she was at the seventh level of Qi Refining in Lancheng, and there was even less need to hide it in this godforsaken place.

Something doesn't seem right, wait a minute!

So, in less than a year, his cultivation level skyrocketed from the seventh level of Qi Refining to a level even higher than hers?!

Yun Qingyi thought about herself and for some reason felt a little heartbroken.

However… Yun Qingyi looked at the wolf king under the tree. A wisp of white fur had evolved between the wolf king's eyebrows. According to the Beast Compendium, monsters are divided into nine ranks, and the Gale Wolf King will start to grow a wisp of white fur between its eyebrows when it reaches the fourth rank, so that the wolf king can better absorb the essence of the moon for cultivation.

Therefore, according to the cultivation level of cultivators, the wolf king in front of us must have at least the Nascent Soul stage cultivation level. In addition, the cultivation of demonic beasts is more arduous, and their strength often increases by a whole level.

That wolf king's strength has at least reached the Nascent Soul stage!

Yun Qingyi asked Xie Xiyan with some uncertainty, "Are you sure you can beat him?" After all, that was a genuine Nascent Soul stage expert!

If it weren't for the fact that she and Yun Qingrou both possessed life-saving treasures, they wouldn't be so calm now; they would have been frantically pacing around in circles.

Upon hearing this, Xie Xiyan's lips curled up slightly, his smile unrestrained.

"I, Xie Xiyan, don't even consider the mere strength of the Nascent Soul stage as a threat."

After saying that, he jumped down from the tree. When Xie Xiyan came down, some of the demon wolves that had been trying to climb the tree stopped scratching at the trunk and growled at him.

The wolf king's eyes were filled with anger, its tail held high as if gathering energy, its sharp claws gleaming with a cold light. Some of them surrounded Xie Xiyan, while others remained around the tree, keeping an eye on Yun Qingyi and Yun Qingrou who were still in the tree.

……

Yun Qingyi sighed. This battle was indeed unavoidable. Although Xie Xiyan's words implied that they didn't need to take action, they couldn't just sit idly by.

After all, Xie Xiyan isn't the only one being targeted by these demonic wolves.

He and Yun Qingrou exchanged a glance, and the two jumped down from the tree at the same time in tacit agreement.

Contrary to Yun Qingyi's expectations, Yun Qingrou decided to help simply because she didn't want to owe Xie Xiyan a favor. She didn't want to owe him, and she especially didn't want her older sister to owe him one.

At this moment, Xie Xiyan was negotiating with Ling Xuzi in his mind. He was slightly surprised and a little guilty when he saw the two of them jump down. After all, he was the one who had chased these wolves. Although it was an accident, it had still caused them trouble.

“Master, you can’t suppress my cultivation anymore. If you do, your disciple will lose all face.”

Ling Xuzi chuckled, his tone mocking: "I think what you care about isn't saving face, but that girl."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xiyan's heart skipped a beat, and his face flushed slightly: "Master, don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"

"Oh dear! You're getting angry now."
