Inoue Matsushita was directly blown away by this strike, his chest clothes were torn apart, revealing ten clear claw marks, deep to the bone.

He never expected that he would be overturned in the gutter, the weakest little lamb turning into a big bad wolf.

If he had been mentally prepared from the start, the little wolf's newfound strength would not have been a match for him. The problem was that everything happened too suddenly, leaving him no chance to prepare.

Fighting is just that unpredictable, an opponent you could completely dominate in one moment could destroy you in the next.

Blood flowed from his mouth like it cost nothing, and Inoue Matsushita was full of regret. Staring unwillingly at the little wolf, he demanded, "How... how did you do it!" This was his biggest question; even at the brink of death, he wanted to know how the little wolf escaped from the Illusion Realm, something not even Luo Chao had accomplished.

"Your illusion realm was indeed strong. But it used the wrong method; what was in my heart was not a weakness, but a motivation pushing me to grow, so... you failed!" The little wolf, expressionless, raised his hand to deliver a fatal strike.

"Watch out!!!" Luo Chao screamed, because he saw a dark red rune circle appear behind the little wolf. It was too late to rush over, so he let the Flying Sword loose towards Inoue Matsushita.

Luo Chao saw clearly that this mysterious circle was created by the hand signs formed by Inoue Matsushita behind his back.

However, before the Flying Sword could reach it, a massive column of lava erupted from the circle, striking the unsuspecting little wolf.

"Little wolf!!!" Guo Ren, Liu Qingqing, Wu Zhongli, and Nangong Hanhan screamed in unison, watching the little wolf consumed, helpless.

Luo Chao's eyes nearly popped out, after spending time thinking about it, he had come to regard the little wolf as a brother. Seeing the little wolf possibly killed in such a manner filled him with furious anger.

The speed of the Green Forest Sword instantly doubled, slicing Inoue Matsushita in half at the waist.

"Cough cough~~" Blood poured out continuously, and knowing his life was over. Inoue Matsushita laughed: "Killing two future stars of the Dragon Team is worth it... cough cough~~"

"Damn thing." Wu Zhongli was closest with the little wolf and had watched him grow up. Now seeing the magma ablaze on the ground with no sign of the little wolf, he could no longer suppress his grief and kicked Inoue Matsushita's head, smashing it beyond recognition, ensuring he was dead beyond doubt.

The others were also deeply saddened, and the two women had already started to cry, even Luo Chao knelt down in pain.

"Cough~~ I say, Brother Luo, Uncle Wu, what's wrong with you all!"

"What's going on with you all!!?"

The sudden words made Luo Chao and the others both surprised and delighted; it was clearly the little wolf's voice.

Turning to the source, indeed they saw the little wolf standing unharmed several meters away from them, holding the last ninja — the one ordered by Inoue Matsushita to continue using the Soul Capturing Technique on Xin Xing'Er — Pine Nuts.

"No way! Little wolf, you're so awesome, you dealt with two Upper Ninjas!!?" Luo Chao exclaimed in astonishment. In his Spiritual Sense, the two Upper Ninjas were Inoue Matsushita and Pine Nuts.

Wu Zhongli quickly ran to the little wolf, looked him over, and upon confirming his safety, breathed a sigh of relief. He then puzzledly asked, "When did you get here? And you dealt with someone in an instant."

"Cough cough, I'm not really sure." The little wolf coughed awkwardly and said, a bit embarrassed: "When I heard Brother Luo shout 'watch out,' I knew it wasn't good. Without thinking, I ran, but I didn't know how, it just seemed like I was as light as a feather, and I suddenly ran over here."

Just as he said, at the moment the lava column was about to hit him, it was almost like he teleported just in time.

"As for this guy." The little wolf lifted Pine Nuts's corpse, "It seems he's been dead for a while!!?"

"Huh? How can that be!" Knowing the little wolf was fine, everyone's hearts were relieved, turning their attention to the dead person in his hands.

At this moment, a timid voice erupted, "Maybe... maybe it's because of me!" Everyone looked at the source to see Xin Xing'Er, awake but with remnants of fear in her eyes, looking at them.

Seeing the key figure in this incident awake, Luo Chao quickly went to her side, gently asking, "Are you okay!"

The girl was not only his friend but if something happened, Tie Xiong alone wouldn't spare him. His eyes glanced over Xin Xing'Er's exposed shoulders and half of her fair chest, noticing the strange runes hadn't disappeared.

"I'm fine!" Xin Xing'Er seemed to notice Luo Chao's gaze was off, adjusted her evening dress to cover the alluring cleavage. Luo Chao sighed regretfully in his heart.

On the other side, Nangong Hanhan unsatisfiedly said, "Qingqing sister, did you see? This guy's a real pervert, sees a pretty girl and runs right over."

This made Luo Chao a bit guilty; even sneaking a glance got found out by this young girl, her observational skills were impressive.

"He's just concerned about our mission target!" Liu Qingqing spoke lightly, unexpectedly not criticizing Luo Chao for once, showing some change in attitude towards him.

This made Luo Chao feel a bit flattered, thinking somewhat indecently, "Could it be that this woman who hasn't remarried is interested in me? Should I try to curry favor?"

"What about these things on my body, is there any way to remove them?" Xin Xing'Er's anxious voice interrupted Luo Chao's indecent thoughts.

Compared to Luo Chao taking advantage, Xin Xing'Er was more worried about her appearance. Except for her cheeks, everywhere else had these tattoo-like symbols, which for a normal, beautiful girl and a major star made it impossible to show herself!

Luo Chao was unclear about her situation and turned his questioning gaze to the most experienced, Wu Zhongli.

Wu Zhongli thought for a moment, then said: "If the Soul Capturing Technique is terminated, it means it failed. So this young woman should be fine now. As for the runes, they should fade away on their own before long, so there's nothing to worry about."

Upon hearing she was fine, Xin Xing'Er breathed a long sigh of relief, as long as they would disappear she was okay.

At this moment, Luo Chao asked the question he truly wanted to ask, "You say that man's death is related to you?"

"Yes! I was aware of what they did to me. At first, the four of them suppressed me, so I didn't dare move. But later, suddenly, three forces disappeared and I was able to resist." Xin Xing'Er said cautiously.
