What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

The Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit stood in the spring, its long, snow-white fur still wet and clinging to its body.

It glanced down at the water, then at its paws that had regained their snow-white color. The lingering wariness in its deep blue wolf eyes gradually faded.

A moment later, it stepped out of the pool.

Its massive body lowered slightly, bowing its head towards Xu Tianlin.

Thank you.

His voice was low and tired, carrying the weariness of a long period of torment.

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lasted much longer."

Xu Tianlin took a sip of milk tea through the straw.

"Don't thank me yet."

"This thing you're wearing doesn't look like it's disposable."

The Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit raised its head, remained silent for a while, and then slowly spoke.

You're right.

Chen Dong was still feeling embarrassed about having just recommended the resort to the resort owner, but upon hearing this, he immediately forgot about the awkwardness.

"What do you mean?"

"Hasn't the evil energy already been cleared away?"

Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit did not answer immediately.

It turned around and looked deeper into the wolf den.

"The ancient artifact of the Snow Shadow Wolf clan has been lost."

Xu Tianlin's eyes flickered slightly.

Disappointed?

"It has fallen into the hands of the abyss."

Wolf Spirit's voice was calm.

But that tranquility in the empty wolf den made Chen Dong's heart sink.

Xu Tianlin's relaxed expression faded considerably.

Ancient artifacts.

It is another ancient artifact.

The importance of this thing has already been explained very clearly by the mouse earlier.

Ancient artifacts carry the most core inherited information of a race.

You could even say that thing is the root of a race in this world.

The roots remain.

Even if they decline temporarily, as long as there are still members of the clan alive, there is always a chance for the tradition to continue.

But what if someone poachs his roots...?

Xu Tianlin remained silent.

Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit continued:

"At first, I could only occasionally sense something unusual."

"The power from the Snow Shadow Wolf clan has become restless and chaotic."

"Sometimes a day."

"Sometimes a few days."

"Later, that feeling became more and more frequent."

It raised one of its front paws.

The fur, freshly washed white by the spring water, swayed slightly in the mist.

"Until the people of our race on the battlefield of ten thousand races began to be truly corrupted by the baleful aura."

Chen Dong's expression changed.

"Has the Snow Shadow Wolf clan also been corrupted?"

Wolf Spirit nodded.

"After the ancient artifact fell into the abyss, everything changed."

"The bloodline of our people is beginning to spiral out of control."

"At first, they were just short-tempered. Later, more and more Snow Shadow Wolves lost their minds."

"They will attack any living creature around them."

"All races, the human race."

Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit paused for a moment, its deep blue eyes reflecting the pool water.

"They only know how to kill and chase after bloodshed until they themselves die on the battlefield."

Chen Dong opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief when the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit returned to normal.

They even thought that most of the Chu family's troubles had been resolved.

Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Xu Tianlin, however, had already understood.

"So you'll become like that too."

Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit looked at him.

"I am a wolf spirit."

"It is the connection between the Snow Shadow Wolf clan and the ancient bloodline of the Chu family."

"The Snow Shadow Wolf bloodline within the Chu family needs a response through me."

"And my power also comes from the Snow Shadow Wolf clan. If the clan is in trouble, I cannot remain unaffected."

"Those malevolent energies will continuously flow to me through my bloodline."

"What you just cleared away was only the part that had already accumulated inside my body."

Xu Tianlin's brows slowly furrowed.

Unless the source is blocked, even if the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit soaks in a spa eight times a day, it will only go from being heavily polluted to being cleaned on a regular basis.

Thinking of this, Xu Tianlin was just about to speak.

A soft "sizzle" sound suddenly came from the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit.

Chen Dong's ears twitched.

What was that sound?

He looked in the direction of the sound.

A wisp of gray mist, as thin as a hair, emerged from the roots of the wolf spirit's back, which had just been pure white.

It's very faint, so faint that it would almost dissipate if you just shook it.

But then, a second wisp appeared, a third wisp...

more and more.

The grayish fumes initially hid beneath the snow-white long hair, like ink spots slowly spreading on a white shirt.

The wolf spirit's back fur rippled slightly, and a gray-black malevolent aura seeped out from the fur, tangling together in strands.

My back, which had just been washed clean by the spring water, was now covered with a light layer of gray.

The joy on Chen Dong's face vanished completely.

"here we go again?!"

How long has it been?

I didn't even finish a cup of milk tea!

This thing just reappeared?

Xu Tianlin raised his hand.

He drew a wisp of malevolent energy from the wolf spirit and held it above his palm.

He felt it for a while.

Familiar with.

It's exactly the same as the evil energy that was just cleared out.

The source hasn't changed either.

"This is troublesome."

Xu Tianlin frowned.

After losing the ancient artifact, the Snow Shadow Wolf clan has probably become a well that keeps gushing out black water.

As long as the race continues to be eroded, the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit, which connects the bloodlines of the two races, can never truly recover.

Meanwhile, the Snow Shadow Wolf clan on the battlefield of ten thousand races...

If things continue like this...

In the future, they will likely become monsters completely corrupted by the abyssal evil energy, left only with the instinct to kill.

"Big brother..."

Chen Dong had just opened his mouth when he quickly changed his mind.

"Oh no, shopkeeper."

He took two steps forward.

Previously, when facing Lixinyan, this guy could still crack jokes.

He didn't show this expression when he had just exhausted his own energy and was even preparing to burn his essence blood.

But now, he was truly panicked.

"Please, please find a way to save it!"

"You're an all-powerful shopkeeper, aren't you?"

Chen Dong stared at Xu Tianlin.

It was as if they were afraid he would utter a single "no".

Xu Tianlin shook his head.

"Not this time."

Chen Dong was stunned.

"what?"

Why?

He glanced almost subconsciously at the large spa next to him.

"You can even bring over the resort's facilities!"

"All that malevolent energy will be washed away in a moment."

"There must be other ways, right?"

Xu Tianlin didn't tease him.

On his own territory, he indeed possessed almost godlike authority.

Moving a facility, suppressing a wolf spirit, or even clearing away the malevolent energy in front of him are all easy tasks for him.

But this time the problem isn't in front of us.

Ancient artifacts are the foundation for the continuation of all races.

The very foundation of the Snow Shadow Wolf clan is now in the hands of the Demon Emperor.

However, the bloodline of the Snow Shadow Wolf clan has always been problematic, and he can't possibly use a spa to chase after the entire clan and wash each wolf one by one.

Moreover, this does not solve the problem of the ancient artifacts being controlled by the abyss.

"The ancient artifacts of the Snow Shadow Wolf clan are in the hands of the Demon Emperor."

Xu Tianlin spoke.

"If we don't bring the source back, no matter how much we do outside, it's just temporary relief."

"I don't have any good ideas right now."

Chen Dong fell silent.

The face that was just full of anticipation gradually slumped.

"What should we do...?"

He turned to look at the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit.

This time, he wasn't just thinking about the wolf in front of him.

And then there's the Chu family.

Chu Hong had made it perfectly clear what the wolf spirit meant to the Chu family.

The Chu family's descendants are awakening the Snow Shadow Wolf bloodline, which requires a wolf spirit.

To choose a mate who can continue the bloodline, one needs a wolf spirit.

The ancient bloodline can be passed down from generation to generation, which is also inseparable from the Snow Shadow Wolf clan.

If the Snow Shadow Wolf is completely corrupted by the evil energy, and if the wolf spirit also loses its mind, what will the Chu family do?

The descendants of the Chu family born later may still have a trace of their bloodline remaining in their bodies.

Without a response from the Snow Shadow Wolf clan, can those bloodlines truly awaken?

What should be done with the martial arts of the Chu family that have been passed down through the ancient bloodline for countless years?

The more Chen Dong thought about it, the colder he felt.

The strength of the Chu family has always been rooted in the bloodline of the Snow Shadow Wolf.

Once this bloodline is severed.

The Chu family warriors will gradually become ordinary warriors, or even worse.

Ordinary martial artists can choose the martial arts that suit them and their own path of cultivation.

However, the entire cultivation system established by the Chu family over several generations was developed around the Snow Shadow Wolf bloodline.

The bloodline is gone.

The original advantage will become an empty shell.

A significant portion of what we've accumulated in the past will become obsolete.

This is no longer a question of whether the eldest daughter of the Chu family can successfully find a son-in-law.

This means the very foundation of the Chu family must be severed.

The wolf den remained quiet for a long time.

Just as Chen Dong was looking down, unsure of what else he could do...

Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit suddenly spoke.

"You've come for the Chu family?"

Those deep blue wolf eyes remained silent for a long time.

"I know."

"The Snow Shadow Wolf clan's days are numbered..."

It slowly lowered its body.

"There's only one way to save the Chu family..."
