Chapter 38 The Howling of Wolves on the Highway at Night

Yan Qin: "I have an old classmate who works in Levin City. She said she was lucky because she happened to be on a business trip last night and escaped unharmed."

Li Yuan: "Your old classmate is really lucky. Don't go around talking about this, or they might check your bank account."

Yan Qin: "It's really true? How serious is it?"

Li Yuan: "It's serious, but don't ask about the specifics. By the way, walk more when you have time, even just around the house. I left something on you, so walking more will be good for you. Also, if you're interested in knives, you can try practicing self-defense with any kind of knife."

He only touched on the topic briefly, without revealing anything about the entry.

Although Yan Qin was puzzled, she still replied, "Okay. Be careful."

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Yuan ate some more bread the driver gave him, and after the "Master of Staying Up Late" attribute took effect, he continued to strengthen his bamboo sword.

He has confirmed that the protective properties of bamboo knives are indeed related to the quality of the bamboo itself.

Therefore, whether it's to prevent the bamboo sword from being damaged or to kill demons more efficiently, the strengthening of the bamboo sword cannot stop.

Since there's nothing much going on right now, I can sacrifice more of my energy and spirit each time.

Suddenly, the driver in front spoke up: "Boss, it's getting dark soon. Let's find a place to sleep first, and continue our journey tomorrow morning?"

"No, we must travel through the night."

Li Yuan said, "I'll drive tonight."

"Oh, this..."

The driver looked troubled: "Sir, it's very dangerous at night."

"Don't worry, I specialize in handling dangerous incidents."

Li Yuan lied, "The reason I'm going to Donghe City this time is because there's something my colleagues can't handle, and they need me to go there to deal with it."

"Is the big boss actually from the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs?" the driver exclaimed in surprise.

"You also know about the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs?" Li Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"Of course, those black trench coats have become quite famous lately."

The driver paused for a moment, then added, "But why...isn't the boss wearing a black trench coat?"

"Who said I'm from the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs?"

Li Yuan said without changing his expression, "I am an exorcist. You may not know what an exorcist is now, but you will soon. This is a newly established department."

"Is that so?" the driver asked, half-believing.

However, because Li Yuan was too strong, and he wanted to get to know Li Yuan, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

Half an hour later, the private car was filled up with gas in a county town.

After filling up the car with gas, the two ate at a nearby restaurant.

After dinner, Li Yuan bought a high-end flowerpot from a nearby flower shop and planted the Extreme Yang Grass.

Looking at the wilted little grass, he was a little worried. Could this thing really survive?

"By the way, do the attributes on me have any beneficial effects on plants?"

Li Yuan suddenly had a thought: 'The "Escape Expert" attribute allows the user to remain resilient in the face of fear and tension. Now that the Extreme Yang Grass has left its habitat, could it also be experiencing tension and fear?'

Thinking of this, he immediately copied the "Escape Expert" entry and incorporated it into the Extreme Yang Grass.

However, the Extreme Yang Grass remained unchanged after being incorporated into the entry.

"Boss, is this plant some kind of treasure?" Liang Chengli asked, puzzled, seeing Li Yuan taking such careful care of the small plant.

Liang Chengli is the driver of the private car.

In his eyes, the Extreme Yang Grass was just an ordinary little grass. It looked a bit like a herbaceous bamboo, and its leaves were also similar to bamboo leaves. It was only about 20 centimeters tall.

Because the Extreme Yang Grass doesn't emit light and seems very fragile, breaking easily with a single bend, it does appear quite ordinary on the surface.

Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask.

Seeing that the Extreme Yang Grass had not changed, Li Yuan thought of other entries.

The "Sports Enthusiast" tag is out of the question; since Extreme Yang Grass cannot exercise, the characteristic of this tag should not be realized.

However, the "night owl" attribute might be useful, since it grants the user a one-unit boost to their physical attributes at night.

Li Yuan then tried to copy the term "Master of Staying Up Late" and integrate it into the Extreme Yang Grass.

The next moment, something magical happened.

The previously wilted Yang Grass recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye and even grew a little taller.

"What... what did you do, boss? Has it become a spirit?" Liang Chengli exclaimed in surprise.

Li Yuan remained silent, continuing to watch the slowly growing Extreme Yang Grass, a smile flashing in his eyes.

Sure enough, the term "night owl" also applies to plants.

Although the "one unit of physical fitness" that the other party obtained seemed to be the physical fitness of the Extreme Yang Grass itself, rather than the physical fitness of a human.

However, having twice the physical strength should be enough for the Extreme Yang Grass to survive this period without dying.

About a minute later, the Extreme Yang Grass grew to a height of thirty centimeters before stopping, and then there was no further movement.

"Let's go, let's continue."

Li Yuan immediately took the flowerpot, grabbed his bamboo knife, and returned to the car.

"Go to the back and sleep. You can drive when you wake up."

He went straight to the driver's seat, put the flowerpot and bamboo knife down, and then said to Liang Chengli.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, boss." Liang Chengli naturally had no objections. He had been driving all day and was already exhausted.

Having witnessed Li Yuan's miraculous abilities, he was even more eager to curry favor with him.

The car continued its journey.

At midnight, Liang Chengli woke up and it was his turn to drive again.

Li Yuan returned to the back seat with the bamboo knife and flowerpot, put the flowerpot away, and then continued to strengthen the bamboo knife.

However, since it was late at night, to prevent any accidents, he only sacrificed 10% of his essence, energy, and spirit each time, and continued to sacrifice after his essence, energy, and spirit were fully replenished.

"Big boss... Master..."

Around 2 a.m., Liang Chengli, who was ahead, suddenly exclaimed in terror, "There's...there's something..."

The car slowly came to a stop.

Li Yuan looked up and his eyes narrowed instantly.

Just over twenty meters away on the left side of the road, a distorted space appeared.

At first glance, that distorted space looked like a constantly swaying surface of water, causing the surrounding ground and roadside trees to sway as well, which was very eerie.

After observing for more than a minute and seeing no other abnormalities, Li Yuan said in a deep voice, "Avoid that location and continue forward."

"Well... okay."

Although Liang Chengli was terrified, he decided to obey and carefully started the car, slowly driving it across the far right of the road.

Fortunately, the distorted space did not affect the car, and they successfully passed through that area.

Liang Chengli breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly accelerated.

This time he was even more nervous, driving with his eyes fixed on the road ahead, worried that something terrifying might suddenly appear.

Li Yuan carefully sensed the distorted space behind him and, seeing that there was nothing unusual, felt relieved and continued to strengthen the bamboo sword.

However, after the car had only been moving for about twenty minutes, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he shouted, "Stop the car!"

As he spoke, he suddenly steadied the flowerpot.

"Bang!!"

Liang Chengli instinctively slammed on the brakes, and the car slid four or five meters on the highway before coming to a stop, almost triggering the airbags.

"What's wrong, boss?" he asked instinctively.

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Yuan had already pushed open the car door and rushed out.

Almost instantly, seven or eight huge wolves rushed in from outside, each with a red glow in its eyes.

"Holy crap, holy crap, monster... monster..." Liang Chengli's eyes widened, his body trembling like a leaf.

However, Li Yuan had already charged forward by then.

"Bang bang bang..."

In Liang Chengli's vision, Li Yuan seemed to have turned into a blur, and wherever he passed, wolves flew backward and burst into flames in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, the seven or eight wolves were killed. They all withered under the evil-repelling properties and turned into dried corpses when they fell to the ground.

"Wow...this is amazing!"

Upon seeing this scene, Liang Chengli, who was in the driver's seat, immediately screamed in shock.

"Awooo..."

Suddenly, the howling of wolves came from afar.

Li Yuan turned around abruptly and saw a wolf, clearly much larger than himself, howling at the sky more than fifty meters away.

As the howling sounded, more wolves rushed out from the distant mountains and forests.

Some were ordinary wolves, but others had red eyes and were clearly no longer ordinary creatures.
