The Atrocious Werewolf Prince

Chapter 357 Chase & Run

~WHOOSH~

In the midst of the dense forest, the prince's body was akin to a wisp of smoke as he dashed past, leaving faint after-images in the space behind him. He was moving with astonishing speed.

Though he could no longer smell the fragrance from his body, he could feel that he was being marked by an extremely faint and peculiar scent. The scent was extremely stubborn, making it nearly impossible for him to erase for the time being.

His eyes rapidly scanned his surroundings. He knew that the Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples were forming an encirclement around him at this very moment.

His scarlet eyes flickered faintly in thought as he muttered to himself, "Blood Slaughterer Peak, thanks for entertaining me, I'll take extra measures and prepare a big carnival for you."

As his words faded, his figure had already flashed past, disappearing into the dense forest.

Not long after Ezra's figure disappeared, the sound of rushing wind was heard as two figures landed on a thick tree branch.

The pair consisted of a male and a female. Umor and Denise Tubble from Blood Slaughterer Peak.

"He sure runs fast." Denise had an icy expression as she spoke.

Umor, on the other hand, wore his typical serious expression as he said, "It seems that he has noticed us."

Denise frowned. "Now that he's desperately running at full speed, it's going to be rather difficult to catch up. However, a panicked wild beast will always flee for its life. It will become easy pickings when it runs out of stamina. The other Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples have already formed a barricade around this area, and there is no way he can escape."

Umor concentrated on the smell and casually replied. "A cornered beast is as dangerous as a wounded one, you are underestimating him way too much, junior sister."

Hearing that Denise lowered her head, and she wore a gloomy expression. Seeing that, Umor scratched his face and sighed, "My only concern is that it's quite shameful for so many of our talented Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples to deal with single Ezra Zephyr.

However, I'm not very fond of surprises. Therefore, since I have already committed myself to this task, I will do everything I can to prevent any accidents from occurring, and destroy any glimmer of hope he may have had."

Beside him, Denise was in complete agreement as she said, "That kid is a strange one, and seems to always exceed everyone's expectations."

Her bright eyes looked towards Umor as she smiled, "Unfortunately for him, he is up against senior brother Umor this time."

She approved of Umor's meticulous way of doing things. After all, if their Blood Slaughterer Peak was unable to deal with Ezra even after sending out this many disciples, it would be a tremendous blow to their reputation.

Umor chuckled. His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked in the direction Ezra had disappeared in, and waved his hand. A playful smile emerged on his face. "Prepare to pull in the net. It's time to let Ezra experience the methods of our peak…"

As time passed, the fights that broke out in this massive mountain range grew increasingly intense, while the remaining disciples grew stronger and stronger.

Meanwhile, the remaining participants gradually moved towards the depths of the mountain range.

At a certain location in the mountain range.

Three disciples from the same peak were currently travelling together. They huddled close, vigilantly scanning their surroundings as they walked. Spiritual energy surged around their bodies, ready to deal with any unforeseen occurrences.

~SWOOSH~

The trio immediately turned their heads to the right, only to see a wispy smoke-like figure zip past at a speed too quick for them to get a proper look. Instead, they were only able to detect the trees shaking faintly in its wake.

"Who?!" They shouted as the spiritual energy around their bodies whizzed even faster in preparation to strike.

However, before they could send out a blast of spiritual energy, the wisp-like figure had already vanished from sight.

The trio was dumbstruck as they turned to look at each other. Cold sweat appeared on their foreheads as they said, "Who was that? That was way too fast! Just like a lightning!"

They didn't even manage to catch a glimpse of his appearance before he vanished.

"Never mind, it doesn't matter who it was. Someone so fast should be no pushover." One of them said. The other two nodded in agreement.

Just as they were about to change course, they suddenly felt powerful spiritual energy ripples rapidly closing in on them from all directions, causing their expressions to change drastically.

The trio hastily huddled together back to back, spiritual energy surging as they vigilantly swept their gazes in the directions of the spiritual energy ripples.

Several dozen breaths later, the trees shook as seven or eight glowing figures shot out. They stood atop the surrounding trees, menacingly staring at the huddled trio.

"They're from Blood Slaughterer Peak!" The eyes of the trio widened when they saw the appearance of the glowing figures.

The Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples glanced at the 3 disciples and shouted, "Blood Slaughterer Peak is hunting Ezra Zephyr, and we hope that everyone else will not interfere!"

After leaving these words, they ignored the trio and shot forth once again.

The trio was stunned by the Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples' departure. Soon after, they could not help but mutter, "Despicable Blood Slaughterer Peak, going all out to hunt down Zhou Yuan."

"That's overkill, right?" One of the disciples frowned, before he said with disdain, "They really lack the trait of honour. Ezra Zephyr is only one of the newer disciples and one with the brightest future. I can't believe they're ganging up on him."

The other two nodded, and said with some sympathy, "That figure we saw previously should be Ezra Zephyr. He's unlucky to have the entire swarm of Blood Slaughterer disciples after him."

"I'm afraid that he won't be able to escape this time around. The Blood Slaughterer Peak disciples have made it clear that they will not allow him to become a diamond belt disciple"

"But, hey! Ezra is not alone…"

"You're right, the Bloodfang army leads are here too. Junior brother Argus Woska would go rampage if they touch his liege." 

The trio were disciples of Divine Demon Peak.
