"What, father, you want me to solve the case?" The girl pointed to herself, her face in utter shock .
"Why, are you unwilling?" Tie Xue Leng smiled gently .
"No, no, of course I’m willing!" Tie Ruo Nan finally reacted, jumping in joy .
Tie Xue Leng nodded, sighing in a complex tone, "You aspire to walk the same path as me . These few years where you were by my side, you have been greatly influenced by me and learnt much . An eagle can only learn to fly by itself, only then can it truly grow up . Your father is old already, my injuries cannot be cured . I cannot continue being with you as you live your life, and as the newer generations replace the old, what happens next is up to you . "
"Father… don’t give up yet, isn’t there still hope for treatment?" The young girl’s voice trembled as she choked back tears .
"You and I both know that the chances are infinitely slim . People have to learn to face facts, Ruo Nan," Tie Xue Leng laughed, then turned towards Gu Yue Bo, "Don’t worry Gu Yue clan leader, this daughter of mine has learnt at least 80% of my abilities . With my guidance along the way, she will not let your clan suffer any injustice . "
"Of course, of course . " Gu Yue Bo quickly cupped his fist, "Young heroines are on par with males; such an elegant disposition and the child of a hero, there is no reason for me to worry . Please come to the village and let us feast upon your arrival . "
… . . .
The dishes filled the entire table, with the fragrance overwhelming the surroundings . Clear wine was poured out from the wine jar in a straight line into Tie Xue Leng’s cup .
The wolf tide was just over, and Gu Yue village was in its toughest period . Large amounts of resources had been expended, causing a food shortage and lack of commodities . Many mortals would starve to death .
But even so, to welcome Tie Xue Leng, Gu Yue clan still assembled this banquet .
As the clan leader, Gu Yue Bo sat at the clan head’s seat, while Tie Xue Leng and Tie Ruo Nan were beside him .
Other than that, Gu Yue Chi Zhong, Gu Yue Ge Yan, Gu Yue Mo Chen, Gu Yue Yao Ji, as well as Fang Yuan and the others, all being elders, were present .
Before the wolf tide, Gu Yue clan had over a dozen clan elders . But now, only one table remained, and there were less than ten elders .
Moreover, the clan elders present were all injured to varying degrees .
Especially in the case of Gu Yue Mo Chen — two weeks ago when he resisted the wolf tide, he was heavily injured and had been hiding in his private room to recuperate . He was resting in bed, but when he heard about the arrival of Tie Xue Leng, he forced his body up and attended this banquet .
But this also let him escape the crisis, while his old rival Gu Yue Chi Lian had followed the clan leader in assaulting the thunder crown wolf and was killed by the lightning lycan .
"If not for Brother Tie’s help today, I might’ve become the lightning lycan’s lunch already . For saving my life, I toast Brother Tie this cup!" Gu Yue Bo stood up, holding the cup with both hands and bending his back, sincerely offering his gratitude .
"I was only doing what I could . " Tie Xue Leng raised his cup, drinking the wine in one go .
He had a vigilant and strict lifestyle, refusing to gamble or find prostitutes, standing by his morals and never went greedy on drinking . He had thus, never been drunk .
After drinking this cup, Gu Yue Bo looked at the people in the banquet, his eyes turning red, sighing and sitting down .
Tie Xue Leng had seen such situations many times, and he consoled, "Gu Yue clan leader, my condolences . As long as your clansmen still exist, the village will definitely thrive again one day . That lightning lycan was heavily injured as well, and the lightning wolves have greatly been damaged, they will not attack for the next few years . This wolf tide has been safely endured . "
The wolf tide’s harshest period is indeed over . For the next few months, although lightning wolves will still appear, their quantity will continue to decrease, and no large groups will be formed . The wolf packs no longer have the ability to directly charge at the village .
The lightning lycan will return to the wolf den and recuperate there, while slowly organising the remaining wolves . Many wolves will be recalled, and many lightning wolves would die, causing the wolf pack’s need for food to decrease drastically .
The wolf packs would become self-sufficient, and in the next few years, they would gradually get stronger, during which new hundred beast kings - bold lightning wolves, thousand beast kings - frenzy lightning wolves, and myriad beast kings - thunder crown wolves would appear .
At its peak, it begins to weaken, and at its weakest, it begins to prosper .
Regardless of humans or wolves, they follow such a law .
But although Tie Xue Leng’s words were right, humans are not grass or trees, they have feelings . The Gu Yue clan leader understood this fact much better than Tie Xue Leng, but the misery and pain in his heart was unavoidable .
The sacrifice was too big… . . .
Just the higher-up clan elders were already gone by at least half . As for the Rank two and Rank one Gu Masters, they had an even larger amount of casualties . The entire Gu Yue village’s strength had fallen to rock bottom, and could no longer endure any more disasters .
"Why is it that you guys do not counter attack, and go wreck their den?" On one side, Tie Ruo Nan could not understand and asked in confusion .
"That is because inside the wolf den, there are over dozens of groups of thunder gas worms, amounting to over a million of them in total . There are also large numbers of wild Gu mixed in . It is hard to cause any damage to them, unless all three clans work together," Gu Yue Yao Ji explained .
Saying so, she suddenly snorted, staring at Fang Yuan, "But this possibility is too small . Even within our clan, there are clan elders shrinking in fear, and during the wolf tide’s attack, god knows where they were hiding!"
Saying so, all the other clan elders turned their vision towards Fang Yuan .
Previously, Fang Yuan was inside the rock crack secret cave exploring the Flower Wine Monk’s inheritance, causing him to miss the huge battle in resisting the wolf tide . In everyone’s eyes, this was being crafty and evasive, as well as being timid and fearing death .
