C12 Amethyst Demonic Wolf

After Wai Qingzhu departed, Lo Chuan brought up the system interface.

"Mission progress: Cola 2/100, Spicy Snacks 2/100."

He sighed as he reviewed the numbers, realizing that completing the mission would likely take quite some time.

Leaving the Origin Merchant Shop, Wai Qingzhu made her way to the eastern city gate. Soon, two women approached, both as striking as Wai Qingzhu.

Their names were Soong Qiuying and Lin Wanshuang, companions of Wai Qingzhu who had adventured together through the Lonely Tips.

"Are you both prepared?" Soong Qiuying asked with a soft smile. "I've got fresh intel. Our target this time is an amethyst demonic wolf at the Divine Soul Stage."

Hearing this, Wai Qingzhu and Lin Wanshuang couldn't hide their concern.

The amethyst demonic wolf, renowned for its crystalline hide, boasted formidable defenses and possessed the power of the Divine Soul Stage upon reaching maturity.

Yet, all three friends were merely at the Eighth Grade of Creation, with Wai Qingzhu, the strongest among them, at the same level.

"Qiuying, is the amethyst demonic wolf really something we can handle?" Wai Qingzhu asked, her brow furrowed.

Soong Qiuying chuckled and shook her head. "Sister Qingzhu, I'm well aware of our limits," she said.

She glanced around before leaning in to whisper, "But, due to its injuries, the amethyst demonic wolf's strength has dropped to around the Eighth Grade of Creation!"

Lin Wanshuang's eyes narrowed thoughtfully. She nodded and said, "Eighth Grade of Creation? I think it's worth a shot! Sister Qingzhu, it's your call."

After a moment's consideration, Wai Qingzhu nodded in agreement. "If that's the case, let's take the gamble!"

...

In the dense woods of the Lonely Tips, a rustling noise suddenly filled the air.

Approaching the source, three silhouettes could be seen moving with caution.

"For some reason, it feels like we're encountering more Demonic Beasts than usual. How much farther to the amethyst demonic wolf?" Wai Qingzhu whispered, seeking an update.

"We're close now, it's right around here," Soong Qiuying whispered back.

Lin Wanshuang sniffed the air, her eyes suddenly sparkling with recognition. "There's a scent of blood in the air!"

As expected, in the dense woods ahead, they spotted a Demonic Beast sprawled on the ground. The creature was massive, several meters in length, with its back adorned with crystals radiating a purple glow. But what really caught the eye was the striking wound on the beast's abdomen, where one could see its internal organs writhing!

"The amethyst demonic wolf seems to be seriously injured," Wai Qingzhu murmured. "When we engage, let's stick to the plan: Qiuying and I will lead the attack, and Wanshuang, you look for an opening to distract it."

Soong Qiuying and Lin Wanshuang nodded in agreement.

"Now!" Wai Qingzhu commanded.

With her signal, they no longer hid their presence, charging at the amethyst demonic wolf like a blade unleashed.

Roar!

The wolf, sensing imminent danger, snapped its eyes open and unleashed a thunderous roar.

"Meet your end!" Wai Qingzhu bellowed.

Her weapon, a dark green longsword, shimmered with a brilliant aura. The wolf's movements were sluggish, likely due to its injuries, and it couldn't evade Wai Qingzhu's strike.

Ding!

A sharp clang echoed as the sword struck the purple crystals on its back, only to be repelled!

"Such formidable defense!" Wai Qingzhu exclaimed, taken aback as she narrowly avoided the wolf's retaliatory snap.

"Fiend, over here!" A furious cry rang out from the side.

Soong Qiuying's palm glowed with a golden radiance as she thrust her fist into the gaping wound on the amethyst demonic wolf's belly.
