On the side, Tom chuckled and said.
He took the opportunity to explain to Fang Xiaocao the purpose behind their actions.
To forestall trouble before it arises!
Eliminating potential dangers in the cradle.
Fang Xiaocao nodded her head in agreement.
Tom had made it very clear, and she understood.
“Roger that!”
“From the tracks I observed, the wolf pack might have headed in your direction, but when I arrived, I didn’t encounter them. Be careful and don’t let Princess Your Highness get snagged by the wolves.”
Wan Xiaozhou’s voice came through the earpiece.
“No problem, you take care yourself!”
Tom said in a deep voice.
Fang Xiaocao: “…”
She felt slightly offended!
What do they mean, be careful not to get carried off by wolves?
How could I, such a big person, possibly be carried off by wolves…
Well…
Alright, wolves are very likely immune to hypnosis.
So, there really is a possibility!
Fang Xiaocao became resigned.
She hated the feeling of not being able to retort.
Fang Xiaocao and the others followed the tracks left by Wan Xiaozhou for another thousand meters when Tom, without any warning, grabbed Fang Xiaocao’s hand and swiftly drew the pistol from his waist.
Taotie also stepped in, shielding Fang Xiaocao behind him, with his black Dagger held in front of his chest and his eyes coldly scanning the surrounding woods.

Fang Xiaocao was baffled.
She looked at Taotie and Tom, puzzled.
“What’s the situation?”
“What happened?”
“Could it be that a danger has occurred?”
Fang Xiaocao’s head was full of question marks.
But seeing that Taotie and Tom had both assumed a careful and guarded stance, Fang Xiaocao felt that she too had to do something.
So…
She pulled out a black Dagger with one hand and a pistol with the other, chambering a round and flipping the safety off.
“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”
At that moment, dense footsteps came from the woods on both sides.
Fang Xiaocao immediately tensed up.
This rustling sound reminded her of the Scar-faced Monster.
Even though the Scar-faced Monster was dead and had spared her out of a guilty conscience before dying, it left an indelible shadow in Fang Xiaocao’s heart.
Even though her spiritual power grew stronger and her hypnotism improved, she still couldn’t completely eliminate the mental seed left in her memory by the Scar-faced Monster.
In certain triggered environments, the silhouette of the Scar-faced Monster would occasionally resurface.
It wasn’t a horrifying memory, but the mental imprint left by the Scar-faced Monster.
Fang Xiaocao subconsciously gripped the gun tighter, her nerves wound up, and her knife-holding hand trembled slightly.
“Awooo~”
A sudden howl of a wolf echoed.
Then, the howls rose and fell, one after another.
They came from all directions around Fang Xiaocao and her companions.
Fang Xiaocao and her group were surrounded by wolves.
“Hehe~”
“You little mongrels came quite fast.”
Once it was confirmed they were wolves, Taotie somewhat relaxed and said with a chuckle.
Tom visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Clearly, even a large number of wolves wasn’t enough to put them on edge like before.
“Hehe…”
“I thought it was something else, turns out it’s just the big bad wolves!”
Tom also laughed.
“Something else?”
Fang Xiaocao blinked, curious about the “something else” Tom mentioned.
What could it be that made both Tom and Taotie feel it was dangerous?
“You little brats, come out so I can chop you up!”
Taotie waved his black Dagger and roared loudly.
“Awooo~”
The sound of Taotie’s shout seemed to provoke the wolves, making their howls even more resounding.
“What’s all the noise for, hurry up and come out!”
Taotie dug at his ear, rebuking them.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
Before the words were out of Taotie’s mouth, several dark figures sprang from the bushes, bringing a foul wind as they lunged towards Fang Xiaocao and the others.
“Bring it on!”
Taotie shouted and swung his blade!
Next to him, Tom quickly raised his gun, “Bang, bang, bang,” firing three shots; following the gunshots, several dark figures let out “ow, ow, ow” screams as they fell from the air to the ground.
“Hey?”
“Old Tom, your hands are too quick!”
Taotie complained, slicing through the fallen figures; two of the dark figures got chopped into four pieces with just two swings of his blade.
“Old Tom, no more shooting, okay?”
“Let me enjoy myself a bit, get some exercise!”
Taotie bellowed, his black Dagger dancing into afterimages, slashing towards the remaining figures.
Taotie was truly fierce, with formidable skills; each swing of his blade ensured that one or two figures fell, their blood sprayed on the spot.
