A true man never turns away from someone in danger," Ye Chen said with a bright, confident smile that radiated justice.
Hearing his words, Little Doctor Fairy felt a faint warmth rising in her chest, her gaze turning soft and unfocused.
"Ah!"
A sudden scream snapped her out of her trance.
She turned and saw one of the herb gatherers being torn apart by a wolf's claws.
Panic surged through her eyes.
"Please… can you save my companions?" she pleaded, gripping Ye Chen's sleeve tightly.
"Of course!"
Before she could say another word, Ye Chen's figure blurred and vanished ....rushing headlong into the fight.
The third-rank Xuan Crystal Demon Wolves were each as formidable as a top-tier human Da Dou Shi. Their ferocity was such that even an ordinary Great Fighter would hesitate to face one in a one-on-one battle. Yet here, including the one already lying on the ground, there were five of these savage beasts.
However, before Ye Chen, even a pack of wolves was not threatening.
As his figure flashed forward, a sharp spear appeared in Ye Chen's hand. In a fluid motion, he drove it toward a wolf about to pounce on a herb gatherer from the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion.
Puchi!
The spear pierced the wolf's skull with force. Dou Qi erupted from the tip, blasting a gaping hole in its head. The massive wolf froze, eyes flashing with defiance, before collapsing to the ground.
"Hu…"
The herb gatherer who had narrowly survived exhaled shakily, gratitude flooding his gaze as he looked at Ye Chen.
Nearby, Little Doctor Fairy's eyes never left Ye Chen. She observed the remaining wolves' positions while marveling at his skill — she had never seen such a young man fight with such precision and composure.
Boom!
Another wolf fell under Ye Chen's relentless assault. By now, all the herb gatherers had gathered together. The remaining two wolves stood side by side, eyes locked on Ye Chen, their killing intent stronger than ever.
"Looks like it's just the two of you left," Ye Chen said with a faint smile.
He stood in front of Little Doctor Fairy and the others, facing the two snarling beasts with calm confidence.
Ye Chen surged forward, spear aimed at the left wolf. Dou Qi pulsed along the weapon, colliding with the beast's claws. The force was immense, rivaling the strength of the monster itself.
The fight escalated into its most intense stage.
"Be careful!"
Little Doctor Fairy's heart clenched as Ye Chen narrowly dodged the claws several times. Her worry wasn't just for survival — it was deeper. She genuinely didn't want to see him hurt.
Under her anxious gaze, the battle reached a critical point. Ye Chen's spear pierced one wolf's forehead. The other wolf's claw struck his back with terrifying force, sending him flying over ten meters, landing just a few steps away from Little Doctor Fairy, dust billowing around him.
"Young Master, watch out!"
Her face pale, Little Doctor Fairy rushed forward without hesitation. Kneeling beside him, she gently examined his injuries.
Ye Chen's handsome face was so close, his clear, bright eyes leaving her momentarily dazed.
Snapping back to reality, she softly asked, "Young Master, you're hurt! Is it serious?"
Before Ye Chen could answer, the last wolf leapt high, jaws wide, diving straight toward them.
"Move!"
Ye Chen pressed one hand lightly against Little Doctor Fairy's back, pulling her down so her upper body pressed against him. His other hand gripped the blood-stained spear, channeling Dou Qi and hurling it toward the airborne wolf.
Boom!
The spear pierced the wolf's abdomen midair, sending it crashing to the ground.
Little Doctor Fairy's soft body pressed against him, her cheeks flushing. She didn't dwell on it — she knew he acted to protect her.
Pfft!
Ye Chen coughed blood, looking pale and exhausted.
"Young Master! You're alright, right? You can't be hurt!"
Her voice trembled, her hands holding him tightly, full of concern.
"Cough… I'm fine," Ye Chen said hoarsely, forcing a faint smile. "The beast hit me hard, damaged my organs a bit. A few days' rest will heal it."
Little Doctor Fairy's face went pale. "Damaged your organs — and you call that fine?"
Ye Chen tried to appear strong. "Really, it's nothing. Just avoid strenuous movement for now, or it'll reopen the wound."
Exhaling, he said, "The wolves are dead. You're safe. I should leave now."
But as he pushed up, pain shot through him. His brow furrowed, strength failing — he collapsed to the ground.
"Careful!"
Little Doctor Fairy immediately supported him, adjusting his posture so his head rested on her lap.
Even through the thin silk skirt, Ye Chen could feel the gentle warmth beneath him. A soft, intoxicating fragrance filled the air.
"Young Master, since you need rest, let me take care of you. When you're healed, you can leave," she said softly.
Turning to the herb gatherers, she instructed, "Don't just stand there! Make a stretcher — we must leave before more beasts appear!"
The Xuan Crystal Demon Wolves' bodies were valuable, but the blood and scent would attract more monsters. None dared linger.
The gatherers hurriedly crafted a stretcher, carefully placing Ye Chen upon it.
With everything ready, Little Doctor Fairy led the group, leaving the blood-stained basin behind as they retreated into the night.
