Chapter 74 Clash
The wolf demon didn't stand on ceremony and eagerly raised the cup, bringing his lips to it.

The amber-colored wine soaked through his fur and rolled down his throat. The wolf demon held the wine cup, savoring it carefully for a long time before finally putting it down heavily.

"As expected of Madam's treasured collection, this is truly fine wine!"

"Really?" Zhou You poured himself another glass and said casually. "I'm not really a connoisseur of wine, I just know it tastes good. Is there something special about it?"

The wolf demon seemed to think that Zhou You was deliberately trying to befriend him, and the faint smile was so deceptive that it no longer cared about the previous conflict and said with a lick of its lips.

"What to say? There's a lot to it. First of all, the ingredients have to be good. The rice used can't be any less than the best harvested that season."

Then comes the fermentation process over time.

After rambling on for several minutes, the wolf demon finally looked at the wine bottle with a hint of regret.

"It's a pity. The wine is good, but there are no side dishes, so it's not very satisfying to drink."

Zhou You pointed with his chopsticks at the leftover food on the table.

Side dishes? Here they are!

However, the wolf demon immediately let out a sneer.

"Is this some kind of side dish for birds? I don't know what kind of diet you zombies have, but we monsters can't live without meat."

The wolf demon looked around and suddenly noticed the package at its feet. It picked it up with a show of it and slammed it onto the table.

"Look, this is what you call a side dish. Since you're so generous, I can't be stingy either. These are all the ones I tortured to death a while ago. The meat is incredibly firm. I was originally going to leave them to my wife to handle, but I'll give them to you here to enjoy with your wine."

Zhou You looked at those eyes, which, though withered, still held a hint of despair, and gently shook his head.

"It looks alright, but unfortunately it's still too bad for me."

The wolf demon immediately stood up in fury.

"Is this still not good enough?"

Zhou You simply took a small sip of wine.

"No rush, tell me first what's so good about these things."

The wolf demon proudly raised its head.

"Let's start with the one on the left. I killed him bit by bit with a knife. Half of his body was already bones, but he was still alive. The one in the middle, I chopped his wife into eight pieces right in front of him. And the old man on the left, his grandson."

Zhou You gently shook his head.

"Too bad, still too bad."

The wolf demon was already desperate.

"Then bring me something even better???"

Zhou You then laughed.

"There's no better human flesh than this, but I do have a candidate for something else."

The other party immediately burst out laughing.

"What kind of meat can you get in this damned world? Don't tell me about animal meat—that stuff has to be processed to taste good. Now that Madam isn't here, don't tell me you have that kind of skill."

Zhou You then laughed.

"As for me, I can't cook. My best cooking skill is making instant noodles, but I know a lot about good ingredients. For example, there's one right here."

Before the wolf demon could even ask what "making instant noodles" meant, Zhou You continued.

"The ingredient I'm talking about was once hailed as a delicacy, said to be so delicious that even immortals would lose their footing after just three dips in soup. Even highly respected monks who had been monastic for decades would break their vows upon smelling it."

The wolf demon swallowed hard.

"What kind of meat are you talking about?"

“Of course it is,” Zhou You drawled, then laughed. “Stewed dog meat.”

"Wait a minute, where did this dog meat come from?" Zhou You didn't answer, but just looked at the other person with a smile.

The wolf demon quickly understood what he meant, and even though his face was covered by fur, it immediately turned bright red.

"You fucking called me a dog?! You bastard, you think I'm being rude?! I'll kill you!"

But before he could finish his harsh words...

next moment.

Zhou You was no longer in that chair.

Looking again, only one figure approached like a ghost!

—When it's time to be ruthless, be ruthless. As for the rest of the time, why waste so much time on nonsense!

The blood-stained blade slashed out from the sleeve, and before it struck the other, it first grazed its own flesh—as the acceleration effect appeared, a faint greenish hue also emerged from the blade.

That is the corpse poison contained in Zhou You's blood.

"You fucking want to fight me?!"

The wolf demon roared and kicked the table, attempting to intercept someone's figure, but Zhou You simply kicked it casually, sending the obstacle flying several meters away.

—This body's martial arts skills far exceeded his expectations. Even though he doesn't know any moves now, his instinctive reactions alone are enough to hold his own against his enemies.

So Zhou You charged straight at the wolf demon, his body suddenly paused, and before the demon could react, his blade flashed forward.

Blood splattered everywhere!
A deep, bone-revealing wound was slashed across the wolf demon's chest—it was estimated to be several tens of centimeters long from bottom to top, and it looked incredibly terrifying, but Zhou You couldn't help but frown.

That guy is incredibly thick-skinned!

He originally intended to finish off the opponent with this surprise attack, or at least render it unable to fight if he couldn't finish it off. But who would have thought that the opponent's hide was too thick, and the slash didn't even penetrate!
So, improvising, he had no choice but to switch from stabbing to slashing. Although he inflicted a huge wound on his opponent, it was far from killing him.

However, the wolf demon didn't think so.

Amidst that excruciating pain, its eyes instantly turned blood red, and its narrow mouth opened, letting out a sinister growl from between its sharp teeth.

"I'm going to kill you!"

As the words fell, it crouched down, just like a real wild beast, and with a forceful push of its four paws against the ground, its entire body shot out like an arrow.

In the blink of an eye, three or four meters were covered—

Zhou You instinctively dodged to the side, but even with the speed suppression, a bloody scratch was still left on his face.

But the gray figure gave him no chance to catch his breath.

Its strong hind legs kicked directly against the wall, and its foul-smelling mouth was split open to its maximum, with blood clearly visible between its teeth.

But at that moment, a true word came.

"Om".

The wolf demon's body froze instantly, like a sculpture.

The next moment, the blade flashed again, this time aimed not at the fur-covered chest, but at the wolf demon's much more vulnerable throat!

However, just as the blade was about to touch the skin, the other party suddenly regained the ability to move and jumped away.

A slight difference is a thousand miles away.

The wolf demon immediately burst into arrogant laughter.

"Trash, you're fucking trash! You really think I'll fall for your tricks again after I've already been burned once? I knew you'd pull this! You just wait and see where you are, or I'll tear you apart today, or I'm not Qingshan Jun!"

Zhou You did not reply.

He looked at the wolf demon howling and cursing arrogantly, then glanced at the green mark on his dagger.

It seems the old Taoist priest was right; he really is an idiot.
