Chapter 143 Origin

In the original novel, Tang San encountered wolf bandits on his way to Hanhai City in preparation for going to Seagod Island.

Yuan Changqing didn't expect to encounter wolf bandits on his way to Hanhai City. It seems that there are probably many of these wolf bandits, otherwise, they wouldn't have been completely wiped out after so many years.

...

"Fourth Soul Skill, Golden Double Shields"

"Sixth Soul Skill, Twin Wing Slash".

While flying in the air, Catherine also faced wind blade attacks from the wolf bandits all around her. She quickly activated her defensive soul skill and then launched a counterattack.

Catherine's Golden Eagle Martial Soul's wings transformed into two golden longswords, which she slashed down at the wolf bandits, instantly dismembering the bandits who were struck.

Seeing his men being slaughtered without any chance to fight back, and with the number of wolf bandits gradually decreasing, the wolf bandit leader realized that even his ranged attacks were having little effect on Yuan Changqing and Catherine, and began to consider retreating.

"Awoo!"

The wolf bandit leader also began to send out signals, and the surrounding wolf bandits slowly began to converge on him.

Upon seeing this situation, Yuan Changqing guessed that the wolf bandits might be trying to escape, so he quickly said, "Catherine, these wolf bandits might be trying to escape."

After saying that, Yuan Changqing quickly approached the wolf bandits, preparing to stop them from escaping and preventing them from causing trouble in other places.

"Domain of the God of Slaughter"

"Eighth Soul Skill, Ten Thousand Swords Return to One".

As Yuan Changqing approached the wolf bandits, he quickly activated the God of Slaughter Comprehended skill, and then used his eighth soul skill. The God of Slaughter Domain directly enveloped the gathered wolf bandits. The domain was dark red and filled with murderous aura. Moreover, even the Blue Silver Grass inside turned dark red.

When Catherine saw Yuan Changqing activating his Killing God Domain to stop the wolf bandits from escaping, she rushed over as well.

Upon seeing Catherine arrive, Yuan Changqing said, "Catherine, you stay outside and keep watch. If any wolf bandits break out of my Killing God Domain, take care of them immediately."

"Okay, honey, don't worry, I'll keep watch outside," Catherine nodded in response.

Then, Yuan Changqing entered the Killing God Domain and began to clear out the wolf bandits. Seeing this, the wolf bandit leader knew that if he didn't fight desperately today, he wouldn't be able to leave.

"Awoo!"

Therefore, the wolf bandit leader had no choice but to order his men to all attack Yuan Changqing.

Wolf bandits inherently possess wind attributes, so they are generally quite fast. However, now that they are shrouded in the Killing God Domain and affected by the killing intent within it, their thinking and speed have slowed down.

The wolf bandit leader is of a relatively high level, which is why he has been able to hold on until now. However, as time goes by, Yuan Changqing feels that even if the wolf bandit leader is of a relatively high level, he definitely won't be able to hold on for long.

Faced with the wolf bandits' attack, countless wolf claws reached for Yuan Changqing's body. Yuan Changqing relied on his strength to nimbly dodge these wolf claws and began to fight back against the wolf bandits with his forging hammer.

The wolf bandit leader roared and joined the attack, its claws repeatedly gripping the forging hammer, sparks flying from the impact.

Although these wolf bandits were numerous, they were no match for Yuan Changqing's overwhelming strength. Moreover, the Killing God Domain was also suppressing them. Ultimately, their fate was to be eliminated by Yuan Changqing.

After Yuan Changqing dealt with the wolf bandits and withdrew his Killing God Domain, Catherine saw that none of the wolf bandits' corpses were intact; the scene was incredibly bloody.

After hearing no response from Yuan Changqing, Wang Yuyan asked, "Brother Changqing, Sister Catherine, how's it going over there? Have you dealt with those wolf bandits?"

Catherine replied, "Sister Yuyan, it's all taken care of. None of those wolf bandits escaped. You can tell the villagers that everyone is safe now."

Afterwards, Yuan Changqing also went to examine the wolf bandit leader's corpse to see if he could find a soul bone. However, to Yuan Changqing's disappointment, the wolf bandit leader did not have a soul bone. It seems that he was not destined to be a protagonist!

After Yuan Changqing finished his inspection, Wang Yuyan and the village chief arrived with the villagers.

Many villagers couldn't help but vomit when they saw the bloody scene of the wolves stealing corpses. They had never seen such a sight in their lives, so it was understandable that they were not used to it for a while.

Yuan Changqing didn't say anything about it. He had experienced similar things back in the Killing City, so he was well aware of how the villagers felt.

Moreover, even Wang Yuyan and Catherine looked very uncomfortable, let alone the villagers.

After a while, Yuan Changqing said to the village chief, "Village chief, please arrange for some villagers to prepare some firewood and burn the corpses of these wolf bandits later. Otherwise, it will easily cause the spread of viruses and cause an epidemic, which is a price your village cannot afford."

Upon hearing Yuan Changqing's words, the village chief nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright, Soul Master, we'll go prepare the firewood right away."

Then he called a few men to prepare firewood.

When Yuan Changqing saw the villagers' condition, he knew it was unrealistic to ask them to clean up the bodies of the wolf bandits, so he had no choice but to help them to the end. He started to gather all the bodies together and waited for the firewood prepared by the village chief.

Before long, the village chief and several men came over with firewood. Yuan Changqing told him to put the firewood around the corpses of the wolf bandits, and then light a fire to burn the corpses.

...

The wolf bandit attack resulted in the deaths of many villagers, and the villagers worked until dawn to clean up the village.

At the village chief's house, Yuan Changqing had originally planned to have the village chief take him to find the skinny monkey's father today. However, after thinking about it, he decided to wait a bit longer. The village needed to deal with the funeral arrangements for the deceased today, so Yuan Changqing decided to stay in the village for the time being.

That evening, many people came to the village chief's house to thank Yuan Changqing and his two companions. They said that if it weren't for them, their village might not exist anymore.

The village chief said, "Soul Master, thank you so much this time. Otherwise, we might have died at the hands of those wolf bandits long ago."

"Yes, yes, thank you, three Soul Masters."

"..."

Watching the villagers express their gratitude one after another, Yuan Changqing was deeply moved. Although these villagers did not live a good life, they were all very simple and honest at heart.

Yuan Changqing also said, "Villagers, there's no need for you to keep thanking us. It just so happens that we're staying at the village chief's place for the night. Since we've run into each other, we'll naturally help within our capabilities."

"Soul Master, we still need to express our gratitude. Although we don't have anything good to offer in return, if we don't even say thank you, wouldn't the people of our village have no conscience?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Changqing could only say, "Alright, I appreciate your gratitude. There's no need to keep thanking me. It's late, so you should all go home and rest!"

After the villagers left, the village chief said, "Soul Master, we are truly grateful to the three of you this time. We don't know how to thank you enough!"

"Alright, village chief, I already said there's no need to thank me anymore. It was just a small favor for us," Yuan Changqing said somewhat helplessly when he saw the village chief still expressing his gratitude.

Then, Yuan Changqing asked, "Village chief, do wolf bandits frequently appear in your area?"

The village chief nodded and said, "Yes, but this is the first time our village has encountered such a thing. However, I have also heard some rumors about wolf bandits in the city. It is said that many villages have been massacred. If it weren't for the three adults in the village this time, we might not have escaped the fate of being massacred as well."

Yuan Changqing nodded, then asked, "Hasn't the Heavenly Dou Empire organized any manpower to suppress those wolf bandits? Being constantly ravaged by them like this, isn't it making everyone fearful?"

The village chief sighed and said, "At the beginning, we launched several raids against those wolf bandits, and many of them were killed."

"However, later on, those wolf bandits became cunning and difficult to surround and eliminate. Therefore, the results were not very good. It is said that those wolf bandits came and went like the wind, and ordinary soldiers could not catch up with them at all. No one knew where those wolf bandits were hiding. By the time the soul masters went to look for them, they had long since disappeared. Therefore, since the appearance of the wolf bandits, many places have suffered."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Changqing felt a deep sense of helplessness. The officials of the Heavenly Dou Empire simply did not treat the common people at the bottom of society as human beings.

Yuan Changqing thought to himself that if he encountered those wolf bandits again in the future, he must kill them all to prevent them from harming people.

...

Both Catherine and Wang Yuyan were curious about how the wolf bandits came to be.

Wang Yuyan asked, "Brother Changqing, how did those wolf bandits appear? I've never heard of them before!"

Yuan Changqing certainly knew about wolf bandits, so he explained, "I'm not entirely sure how wolf bandits came to be, but it's said that after a Gale Demon Wolf reaches 100,000 years of age, it transforms into a human and mates with a human woman to have offspring. However, when it awakens its martial soul, the martial soul mutates, turning it into a wolf bandit. The Gale Demon Wolf is inherently a cruel and bloodthirsty soul beast, and these characteristics are inherited after it becomes a wolf bandit."

"As for the origin of the other type of wolf bandit, it is that the first type of wolf bandit specifically captures human women and uses those women to bear offspring for them. As a result, the number of wolf bandits has become more and more numerous, leading to the current rampant wolf banditry."

"Moreover, as far as I know, these wolf bandits usually appear in groups at the same time, and there are quite a few of them."

"This is all I know about the origins of the wolf bandits. Whether it's true or not, I can't know for sure."

"Ah, I didn't expect these wolf bandits to be so despicable. The Heavenly Dou Empire doesn't even think of a way to wipe them all out."

Yuan Changqing sneered, "Those people don't care about the lives of those at the bottom. If we rely on them, who knows when that will be?"

Then he added, "Alright, let's not talk about these wolf bandits anymore. If we encounter them again in the future, we'll just wipe them out."

Catherine added, "That's right. If we encounter them in the future, we'll kill them one by one, and if a group comes, we'll kill the whole group."

"Um!"
