Open up and break into another world

The silver-white wolf king was impaled on the long spear, seemingly aware of its impending death, and struggled incessantly. However, with each struggle, the long spear would churn its internal organs, causing it unbearable pain, a living hell.

“Forget it, let you go!”

Xu Ming shook his hand, and his profound energy permeated through the spear shaft, vibrating into the wolf king's internal organs.

The wolf king whimpered and breathed its last.

Just before its death, its eyes were wide with disbelief—it had died just like that?

“The wolf king is dead!”

At some point, the battle between Sun Ji's side and the wolf pack had ceased.

Wolves are fierce, but that doesn't mean they aren't afraid. When the wolf pack saw that even their invincible king was instantly killed by this newcomer, they truly trembled!

The entire wolf pack trembled!

In their eyes, Xu Ming was an invincible god.

“Woo—”

An azure-eyed wolf was the first to tuck its tail between its legs and flee; immediately afterward, the terrified wolf pack scattered in all directions, scrambling to escape.

Xu Ming returned with his spear, like a heavenly god descending to earth.

“Bro… Boss! You're too strong!” Sun Ji was stunned.

If he had known his boss was so powerful, Sun Ji definitely wouldn't have told him not to come earlier; he probably wouldn't have even had time to call for help!

“Brother Xu Ming!” Yue Jian's face was full of admiration. “I foolishly considered myself a genius, but compared to Brother Xu Ming, I'm nothing! With Brother Xu Ming's cultivation level, you're probably about to step into the Innate Realm, right?”

Yue Jian believed that if he faced the silver-white wolf king, he would lose more often than win; but Xu Ming, on the other hand, could instantly kill the wolf king! It was evident how great the difference in strength between him and Xu Ming was!

“Moreover, I'm four or five years older than Xu Ming!” Yue Jian mocked himself inwardly.

“I'm still far from the Innate Realm!” Xu Ming casually brushed it off. “My state just now actually came at a considerable price!”

“Oh…” Yue Jian didn't ask further, as everyone had their secrets.

At this moment, Tian Dali interjected, “I say, Xu Ming, did Mansion Master Gu secretly impart some forbidden technique to you? Hmph, Mansion Master Gu is just biased… What exactly is this forbidden technique, that it's so powerful? Tell us about it!”

Xu Ming merely glanced coldly at Tian Dali.

Originally, Xu Ming couldn't say he loathed Tian Dali, even though he dressed more flamboyantly than a girl; but now, Xu Ming realized that this person was not only outwardly gossipy, but even more so inwardly.

“Boss, what forbidden technique did you use? Is it serious? Are there any hidden dangers left behind?” Sun Ji became anxious upon hearing this; he thought that his boss had used a forbidden technique, damaging his foundation, in order to rush over and save him.

“It's nothing!” Xu Ming couldn't explain about the cheat.

And it was these two words, “It's nothing,” that brought tears to the eyes of Sun Ji, this rough and burly man—what a great boss, to use a forbidden technique and harm his foundation for the sake of his useless little brother… And what could he do to repay him? Even giving his life might not be enough to repay him!

Hua Lengyan, known as the Ice Beauty of the Martial Mansion, looked at Xu Ming with a strange light flickering in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

“Boss…” Sun Ji held the fragrant pill, and even with his simple mind, he guessed the preciousness of this pill.

“Stop dawdling and eat it quickly!” Xu Ming scolded. “This pill isn't enough to heal you completely; when we return to the city, I'll find a way to get you a better healing medicine.”

Exchanging for this healing medicine from the Artifact Shop had already used up almost all of Xu Ming's Cheat Points; he didn't have enough Cheat Points to exchange for higher-level pills, so he could only find a way after returning.

Seeing his boss's concerned gaze, Sun Ji didn't dawdle any longer, and with a tilt of his head, he swallowed the pill.

The medicinal power emitted by the pill made Sun Ji feel warm all over, both inside and out; and at this moment, what he felt warmest was probably his heart. Sun Ji had already decided that in this life, he would follow Boss Xu Ming!

“Are you alright, Sun Ji?” Bai Rong had arrived beside Sun Ji at some point, asking with concern.

“Just a minor injury!” Sun Ji said heroically. But anyone could see that his expression suppressed the pain brought on by the injuries.

“Xu Ming!” Tian Dali's yin-like voice rang out again, “I'm also quite injured; how about giving me a pill too!”

Give you one too?

Xu Ming simply couldn't be bothered with this idiot.

Not to mention that he had already used up all his Cheat Points, even if he still had them, why should he give you one? Were they close?

This healing pill seemed ordinary, but it cost a thousand Cheat Points! And that was the price you could only get in the Artifact Shop! In Cloud Arise City, you might not be able to buy a healing pill of this quality even for fifty thousand taels of gold!

“Hey, what do you mean by not saying anything? It's just a healing pill, isn't it? We're fellow disciples after all; as your senior brother, I'm injured in the wild, and you're not even willing to take out a pill to help me out?” Tian Dali shouted.

“Hehe!” Xu Ming sneered.

Tian Dali had once again asked for trouble.

Xu Ming glanced at the wolf corpses scattered on the ground and noticed that many of the wolf skins had runes imprinted on them.

“Go and peel off all these wolf skins!” Xu Ming gave an order to the puppet, who had been standing there idle.

The puppet obeyed and immediately went to carry out the task, stupidly but nimbly.

“Xu Ming, your puppet is not bad!” Tian Dali actually came up again, “One hundred thousand taels of gold, sell it to me!”

Xu Ming smiled: “I'll offer one million taels, will you sell it to me!”

“Tch, if you don't want to sell, then don't sell, why put on an act!” Tian Dali sneered, “Even if your puppet is made entirely of gold, it's not worth one hundred thousand taels!”

Xu Ming, Sun Ji, Yue Jian, and everyone else present cast surprised glances at Tian Dali; these glances all expressed the same meaning—how could you say such shameless and ignorant words?

Could the value of a puppet be measured in gold?

A semi-Innate puppet like Xu Ming's used materials for its outer shell that were comparable to top-grade weapons; the internal core components were even more valuable!

Moreover, the art of puppetry had long been lost in the Flying Cloud Kingdom; such a puppet was simply priceless! Was Tian Dali to be called ignorant for saying such words, or was he to be called shameless?

“Hmph!”

Noticing the disdain in everyone's eyes, Tian Dali was too embarrassed to continue standing there, so he followed the puppet and went to cut the rune wolf skins.

With so many wolf corpses on the ground, there were quite a few rune wolf skins. In particular, the runes on the silver-white wolf king's body would undoubtedly be a high-scoring rune.

Tian Dali first harvested the wolf skins from the area where he had originally killed the wolves.

Regarding this, everyone had no objections, as these wolves were killed by Tian Dali, and it was only right for him to harvest his own spoils.

However, soon, Tian Dali's behavior became unbearable to watch. After harvesting his own rune wolf skins, he didn't stop, and even set his sights on the wolf skins in Bai Rong's area.

“Those are mine!” Bai Rong hurriedly shouted.

These wolf skins were all her spoils; so many rune wolf skins would be enough for her to achieve a good ranking in the hunting competition.

“Yours?” Tian Dali snorted, “If it weren't for my help, you would have died long ago!”

“You!” Bai Rong was furious.

Speaking of help, had Tian Dali helped her in the slightest? Wasn't she just struggling there on her own? If it hadn't been for Sun Ji's help, even if she had died, Tian Dali wouldn't have lent a hand!

But now, Tian Dali was plundering her spoils with such justification.

“Tian Dali, put it down!” Hua Lengyan stood out.

“Yes, put it down!” The other surviving disciples also unified their front.

If they allowed Tian Dali to harvest Bai Rong's spoils now, wouldn't it be their turn to be plundered later?

“Tian Dali, you're going too far!” Yue Jian also said.

Yue Jian had always felt that Tian Dali was very petty, but only today did he realize that this Tian Dali was a complete and utter villain.

“Hmph!” Having become the target of public criticism, Tian Dali had no choice but to snort coldly and change direction to harvest rune wolf skins.

And the target he found was the wolf pack that Xu Ming had slaughtered along the way when he went to kill the wolf king alone.

Xu Ming was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: “You dare to touch my things?”

“What do you mean by your things?” Tian Dali immediately retorted in a shrill voice, “Although these azure-eyed wolves weren't killed by me, if I hadn't been holding back the wolf pack in the back, could you have killed the wolf king so easily?”

Xu Ming was even more stunned—how could the Wild Martial Mansion have such a shameless person?

“According to what you said, I should give you a share of the skin on the wolf king's body, right?” Xu Ming's voice was slightly cold, “Go ahead, the wolf skin worth ten thousand points on the wolf king's body is right there, go cut it!”

“This…” Tian Dali was tempted for a moment, but still retreated.

“You know you're embarrassed to ask for it? Looks like you still have some shame!” Xu Ming smiled, “Listen carefully, on this ground, if you dare to take away a single wolf skin that I killed, you can try it!”
