The water blade struck its leg, drawing blood.
The wound seemed fairly deep, and there was a considerable amount of bleeding, yet the wolf showed no sign of retreating, even as it dragged its injured leg.
Given the numbers and the severity of the injury, it should have backed off.
"Grrr…"
"Do not come."
As the wolf prepared to lunge again without giving up, Cari moved to send another blade flying, when suddenly—
"Whine… whine…"
A soft and pitiful cry came from behind the wolf.
It seemed to be the wolf's pup.
The small creature staggered forward unsteadily before collapsing.
When he looked at it closely, Qiong Xing saw that it was bleeding from its abdomen.
"It looks like it is injured."
"Mama, I will protect you."
Seeing how emaciated the parent wolf was, it was likely that it had come in search of food.
Qiong Xing stopped Cari who was still wary and about to use magic again.
"Why?"
