Chapter 20: Killing
Su Hao deeply understood the helplessness of being a child. In his previous reincarnations, he often encountered accidents and died at the age of four or five. Those who could live until six were a minority.
In his previous life, it was an incident at kindergarten, while this time it was a wolf attack.
The wolf attack was more deadly than the previous murderer, not only because wolves were more brutal and skilled hunters, but also because the attack happened suddenly. He had no time to react at all. If it weren't for He Qingqing's reminder, he wouldn't have realized it until the wolf's mouth bit his neck.
But the current Su Hao was different from before. As a four or five-year-old child, he now possessed an extraordinary power called "Blood Qi." Moreover, with the amount of Blood Qi he had and the utilization of "Blood Qi Enhancement Wave," he had reached the limit of what his current body could achieve.
In short, he was very powerful now, invincible among his peers. He could make a five-year-old cry and chase away someone ten years older than him. Even an adult would not be a match for him.
Facing the giant wolf pouncing towards him, Su Hao remained calm. "If I hadn't noticed your sneak attack, it would have been fine. But since I did, then you—get down!"
He turned around, shifted his weight, assumed a stance, tightly clenched his fist in his right hand, and completed all these actions in an instant. When the wolf's mouth was right in front of him, Su Hao delivered a powerful uppercut to the wolf's lower jaw.
"Bang—Crack—"
The huge wolf's mouth instantly closed, and a few broken teeth flew out of the corner of its mouth.
A tremendous impact started from the lower jaw, spread to the upper jaw, and then to the head, lifting the wolf's head high. The instantaneous impact even caused a ripple in the fur on the wolf's head.
The wolf was sent flying by Su Hao's punch, spinning several times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
He Qingqing's mouth hung open.
Biting Bear's mouth hung open.
Little Fatty's mouth hung open.
One punch sent the wolf flying, and this wolf was two or three times larger than him. Was this for real? Was this the same Xiang Wu they knew? If it were an adult doing this, they wouldn't be surprised at all, but for Xiang Wu to do something like this was a bit exaggerated. By the way, Xiang Wu was one or two years younger than them!
He Qingqing realized that when faced with a wolf attack, she could do nothing but scream and tremble. Even if the wolf stood there and let her hit, she wouldn't be able to do anything.
What should she do? Suddenly, she felt that there was a huge difference between people. Looking at the two bigger henchmen beside her, who behaved even more poorly, she wondered if it was really right for her to play with them all the time?
Suddenly, those words Xiang Wu had said to them came to He Qingqing's mind: "I never play with idiots!" So, in his eyes, they were really idiots. She also thought about: "I never play with weak people." So, in his eyes, they were really weak people.
He Qingqing seemed to mature all of a sudden. She suddenly understood that Xiang Wu had never lied to them; he really didn't want to play with them.
She grew up in an instant, but she felt so sad. What was happening?
Su Hao didn't know how much impact his punch had on He Qingqing. Seeing that the wolf's mouth was bleeding but it could still get up and growl at him, he drew a short knife from his waist and gripped it tightly.
Su Hao crouched down, facing off against the wolf.
The wolf slowly backed away; it wanted to escape.
Su Hao's lips curled up, and he stomped his foot on the ground, causing the earth to fly up, and he charged at the injured wolf.
The wolf let out a low growl and stopped retreating. It planted its hind legs on the ground and pounced at Su Hao. This time, it had learned its lesson and didn't open its mouth wide from the beginning. Instead, it planned to wait until it was close enough to instantly bite Su Hao's throat.
Su Hao narrowed his eyes, and his Blood Qi started to burn. He released a massive amount of energy, instantly filling his body with vigorous strength.
He wanted to kill this wolf with a single strike and overcome his first childhood crisis!
At the moment of contact between Su Hao and the Blue-eyed Wilderness Wolf, he suddenly leaned back, avoiding the wolf's pounce. At the same time, he raised the short knife in his hand and made a powerful slash across the wolf's neck.
"Tear~"
The wolf's neck was cut open, losing its balance and falling heavily to the ground. However, it immediately climbed back up, looking at Su Hao warily.
Its entire neck was now sliced open, and blood gushed out. After just a moment, the wolf lost its strength, staggered and fell to the ground, quickly losing its breath.
The wolf lay in front of He Qingqing and the others. Even though it had become a lifeless body, the three of them still felt an inexplicable fear.
This mighty wolf was taken down by Xiang Wu with a single knife strike. And they could only catch fish and play in the mud, even deluding themselves into thinking they could defeat Xiang Wu with cheap tricks. It was so laughable when they thought about it.
Su Hao walked to the wolf's corpse and kicked it twice, smugly saying, "This time, it's really dead!"
Then he looked up at the three people and sneered, "Now you know fear! Aren't you going back quickly? If I hadn't been here today, the three of you wouldn't have been enough to satisfy this wolf."
He Qingqing instinctively wanted to retort, but she couldn't say a word.
Bitting Bear and Little Fatty were even more miserable. They looked at Su Hao with eyes full of fear. They would never dare to oppose Su Hao in the future.
"Let's go, I'll take you back!"
Saying that, Su Hao turned around. Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and his heartbeat slowed for a moment. He saw two wolves silently appearing behind him, ready to ambush.
The two wolves immediately launched their attacks—one pounced towards Su Hao's throat, and the other aimed for his abdomen.
So close! So fast! He was confident that he could fend off an attack from one wolf, but he couldn't handle both at the same time. If he dealt with the wolf attacking his throat, then his stomach would undoubtedly be bitten by the other wolf. His thick winter clothes couldn't stop the wolf's sharp teeth.
What should he do?
There was no time to think. Su Hao quickly sidestepped, evading the wolf's frontal assault. Seizing the opportunity, he raised the short knife in his hand and slashed fiercely at the wolf's throat.
"Slash~"
The wolf was cut open, following in the footsteps of the first Blue-eyed Wilderness Wolf.
However, Su Hao didn't have time to deal with the second wolf.
Because the second
wolf's mouth was already within arm's reach, he was now unable to gather enough strength to strike back, not even to dodge.
Imagining himself being disemboweled, Su Hao sighed helplessly, "A thousand ways for reincarnators to die!"
"Horizontal slash!"
Suddenly, a loud shout resounded in his ears.
A flash of light appeared, and the wolf that had lunged at him was instantly cut in two, falling to both sides without a sound.
"Father!"
Su Hao shouted in joy.
He was saved! When this man appeared beside him, Su Hao felt an unparalleled sense of safety.
Indeed, before reaching puberty, one still had to rely on their father. There was some truth to relying on one's father's influence.
At this moment, not only did Su Hao let out a sigh of relief, but Wu Yuntian also breathed a sigh of relief.
When he saw the first Blue-eyed Wilderness Wolf about to bite Su Hao's throat, he couldn't rescue him in time. He was desperate.
However, what he didn't expect was that Su Hao could single-handedly kill a powerful Blue-eyed Wilderness Wolf, which was truly unbelievable.
Fortunately, he arrived in time. His son, Wu Xiangwu, was unharmed, and that was the best outcome.
At this moment, the soldiers who had rushed back looked at the children standing there fine, and their hearts were put at ease.
It's good that nothing happened!
So, what happened here?
Everyone's gaze fell on Su Hao and the blood-stained short knife in his hand.
At this moment, Lü Gao suddenly appeared and proudly proclaimed, "Captain, I have eliminated the two infiltrating Blue-eyed Wilderness Wolves in the village."
All eyes turned to Lü Gao. Lü Gao suddenly saw the three fallen wolves on the side and was momentarily speechless.
