Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 772 - 744 Chasing the Werewolf

After the werewolf had killed, the town of Xiaochi was conducting a thorough search for them. They certainly wouldn’t stay among the crowds.

Lin Tian said, "Which secluded places are there around Xiaochi Town, like caves, abandoned factories, etc.? It’s very likely that the werewolves are hiding in those places."

Fairy Zixia agreed with Lin Tian’s view and said, "I know some places. I can take you to see them."

With too many people, they would surely alert their quarry. Thus, Lin Tian only took Han Feng, Fairy Zixia, and Sweetie, a man, a woman, and a dog, to search for clues about the werewolves.

They first reached two abandoned factories. These places used to manufacture car parts. However, due to the downturn of the auto industry in recent years, these factories had shut down and were now deserted.

The trio searched the area but found no trace of the werewolves.

Fairy Zixia then took Lin Tian to a secluded grove on the edge of Xiaochi Town. The government had even installed barbed wire around it to prevent deforestation, so normally, hardly anyone came here.

Walking into the grove, they discovered no sign of the werewolves. However, upon closer inspection, Lin Tian found the skeletal remains of three wild hens.

They looked as if they had been dead for several years.

However, there were traces of fresh blood on the surrounding green grass.

Lin Tian immediately understood—the three wild hens hadn’t died long ago but rather recently. They appeared skeletal because their essence blood had been drained. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

That meant the werewolves had been here, but they were one step too late; the werewolves had already left.

It seemed that their method was effective. The werewolves were certainly hiding in the surrounding remote areas.

"Keep looking."

Lin Tian said calmly.

Fairy Zixia immediately led Lin Tian to continue searching elsewhere.

After visiting two more places, although they saw no werewolves, they did find the skeletal remains of a woman.

The werewolves must have brought the woman here and drained her essence blood.

Afterward, Fairy Zixia led Lin Tian to a forest that had a cave in it, a place she had stumbled upon by chance, unbeknownst to ordinary people.

As soon as they entered the forest, Sweetie, who was in Lin Tian’s arms, became alert, her small ears perking up as if she was listening to something.

"Woof, woof, woof...!"

Soon after, Sweetie barked fiercely in one direction, evidently having noticed something.

Lin Tian tentatively asked, "Sweetie, are you saying that those despicable werewolves are in that direction?"

"Woof, woof, woof!"

Sweetie nodded.

Seeing Sweetie nod, both Fairy Zixia and Han Feng were astonished. They had thought Sweetie was just a pet Lin Tian kept for fun, but since she could sense the werewolves’ presence, it was clear she was no ordinary dog.

"Fantastic!"

Lin Tian patted Sweetie’s little head, generously praising her.

Sweetie held her head high and barked twice unabashedly, as if to say, "I am indeed that fantastic."

"Let’s go, follow the direction Sweetie indicated, and chase after the werewolves."

..., ...!

On the edge of this forest lay a small village with just over twenty households.

Most of the villagers were older people in their fifties and sixties. The younger generation had all gone to the city to work. Those who had nowhere else to go stayed in the village, making a living by selling local produce and tending to the land, barely managing to survive. It was a tough life.

That day, the village was bustling with activity.

In the village lived an old man named Wang. When Wang was over forty, he was blessed with a daughter. His wife died as soon as his daughter was born. Now in his sixties, he was honest and upright. His daughter, now twenty-three, had been working in the city and running a small business, earning some money. Today, she was returning home to take Old Man Wang to the city to live in comfort.

More importantly, she wasn’t returning alone; she had brought along a son-in-law, a city boy who worked as a clerk in a bank, a civil servant. The salary wasn’t high, but he was decent and gentle.

With only a few households in the village, the arrival of a son-in-law was certainly a big event. Thus, everyone came to the village entrance to see what Old Wang’s son-in-law looked like.

"Look, they’re coming."

"They came by car. Her son-in-law must be rich to have a car, a car indeed!"

The villagers murmured amongst themselves.

Soon, the daughter and her son-in-law came into view.

Old Wang’s daughter was indeed beautiful, dressed in business attire today, while her son-in-law was in a suit, which immediately dazzled the rustic eyes of the villagers.

"Their clothes are so beautiful, and the son-in-law is handsome too."

"Old Wang’s early life was hard, but now he’s enjoying the good life. To have such an amazing daughter and a son-in-law to match!"

"Yes, indeed. It’s not in vain that he had a daughter. Look at my son; he got a girlfriend a month ago and keeps asking me for money. How am I supposed to have any? Just yesterday, they broke up because I couldn’t provide the money, oh, my son...!"

It had to be said, Old Wang’s daughter was among the more successful of the younger generation in the village, eliciting everyone’s envy.

As the daughter reached Old Wang’s side, she linked arms with him and introduced him with a sweet smile, "This is my father."

"Hello, uncle."

The son-in-law said politely, handing over a gift he was carrying to Old Wang.

It was a box of bird’s nest, something Old Wang had never eaten before.

Laughing, his daughter said, "Dad, we’re quite busy at work and only have two days off. Let’s pack up and set off for the city today. We’ve already bought a house there."

"Yes, yes, yes...!"

Old Wang was overwhelmed with emotion, tears streaming down his face, as he was overjoyed.

The villagers listened, filled with envy and jealousy.

"Old Wang’s daughter has done well for herself, bought a house, and now Old Wang is going to enjoy his life."

"Ah, when will my son be able to take me away too?"

"Another person is going to leave the village."

..., ....

Old Wang wiped away his tears and shouted to everyone, "Folks, this noon, everyone come to our place for a meal. I’m leaving and want to treat you all to a meal."

"Yeah, uncles and aunts, come over to our house for a warm meal!" his daughter and son-in-law echoed.

As soon as his daughter finished speaking, a chilling aura surged, sending a shiver through everyone.

Two werewolves, walking slowly from not far away, targeted the daughter directly.

One of the werewolves revealed a sinister leer.

"Third brother, hahaha..., this is perfect. To think that in such a remote place we’d find such a superb woman. It’s our lucky day."

"Hahaha, you’re right, Fourth Brother," the other werewolf also burst into laughter.

"We’ve been too active these past few days, alerting those stupid humans. This spot is perfect, secluded and easy to attack. Even if we killed everyone here, we wouldn’t leave a trace."

"Third brother, old rules, do you want to play with the woman, or do you want these people’s essence blood?"

"Fourth Brother, this woman is not bad. This time, I want the woman; the essence blood of these people is yours."

"Hahaha...!"

These were all ordinary villagers who had never even seen a superpowered individual. Seeing these werewolves, they were utterly dumbfounded.

An older man, rather bold, seeing the two werewolves, rubbed his eyes and said to the person next to him, "Old Wang, are my eyes deceiving me, what is that, a human?"

Old Wang’s legs trembled, his whole body shook, and his face was ashen.

"Old Wang, what’s wrong, is it a heart attack?"

"Monsters, monsters!"

..., ....

The people screamed frantically and ran back in terror.

Two large wolves standing upright— who wouldn’t be scared?

"Hahaha...!"

The werewolves emitted strange noises, and one of them activated his True Yuan, enveloping all the villagers and immobilizing them.

Now, only two people among the villagers could move, the daughter and her husband.

The son-in-law was a very responsible man. Although frightened, he still managed to shield his wife with his trembling body.

He swallowed hard and shouted.

"What are you, what do you want, don’t harm Jiaojiao."

"Hahaha, such devoted love, good, I love it, I love the blood of a lovestruck fool the most."

One werewolf extended his hand, and a flow of True Yuan formed a giant hand that grabbed the son-in-law.

"Jianzhong, no, let go of Jianzhong!" the daughter cried out.

The other werewolf also reached out his hand and grabbed the daughter.

"Hahaha, perfect, I like it."

With that, the werewolf tore open the daughter’s clothes, exposing her pale skin to the air.

"Let go... of... my... daughter!"

Old Wang roared furiously, struggling to utter each word, his anger reaching a point of despair.

Over the years, he had acted as both father and mother, the hardships understood only by him.

Now, his daughter was successful, and he was about to enjoy life, but at this moment, monsters intended to harm them.

He didn’t care about his own death, but he couldn’t bear to see his daughter harmed.

Somehow, he found the strength to break free from the werewolf’s restraint and barely managed to say those words.

The werewolf holding the daughter became enraged, glaring at Old Wang and bellowed.

"A dying man, daring to ruin my fun, for your insolence, today, I will start with you."

He pinned the daughter down, brandished a big knife, and chopped it toward Old Wang.

"No!"

The daughter screamed, tears streaming down her eyes.

Without a mother, she depended entirely on her father, and seeing him about to be killed filled her with grief.

Just as the werewolf’s knife was about one meter from Old Wang’s head, the werewolf suddenly sensed an impending attack.

A beam of True Yuan transformed into a sharp sword, unleashing immense ferocity and fiercely struck at the werewolf.

The werewolf was shocked, quickly withdrew his knife, and used all his strength to swing the big knife at the True Yuan.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the werewolf was knocked back more than ten steps.
