Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

White Wolf looked at the approaching tide of monsters in the distance and was shocked again: "Monsters? There are so many of them!"

"So they're perfect for your next training sessions," Qi Yong said, folding his arms. "Of course, as long as you don't lose your balance and don't lose your composure, I won't help you unless it's absolutely necessary."

Hearing this, the White Wolf smiled slightly: "Well, just wait and see!"

After saying this, he took up his weapon and took two steps forward. Gazing at the approaching monsters, he made a familiar starting gesture and began to regulate his breathing.

"That's right, that's right. Don't be impatient. Be humble and avoid being arrogant. Blood elements hate anxiety the most, so you must keep your mind steady and remain calm at all times."

Qi Yong's words echoed in Bai Lang's ears. He felt as if he had taken a reassurance pill, and the tension in his heart gradually dissipated.

The monsters' roars grew closer, and they charged forward with bared fangs and claws. Their ferocious forms looked especially terrifying in the evening light. White Wolf remained unmoved, his eyes fixed on the group of monsters, his mind silently sensing the flow of the elements, breathing in and out as if in meditation.

"Remember, if you don't attack, you're as still as water. If you attack, you must defeat the enemy with one strike! It must be fast! Accurate! ruthless!"

The moment the monsters entered their attack range, White Wolf moved. His figure flashed, dodging the monsters' frontal attack like a ghost. At the same time, the weapon in his hand flashed a cold light, and a streak of blood flashed across the sky, and the monsters fell to the ground instantly.

"Very good, that's it, stay calm!" Qi Yong watched calmly from the side and nodded secretly.

White Wolf pursued the monsters with his nimble feet, weaving through them with every strike, his attacks perfectly timed to the hilt, wasting no effort while still inflicting effective damage. Soon, all the monsters were ripped apart by his attacks.

Pop, pop, pop!

After the battle, Qi Yong clapped his hands and came to Bai Lang: "Well done, it seems you have already understood how to use the blood element."

"That's all thanks to you, senior." White Wolf smiled slightly, and then subconsciously looked at the group of monsters lying on the ground behind him.

"Huh? Why, you're getting anxious again just after being praised?" Qi Yong asked.

White Wolf came to his senses and replied, "Oh, of course not, it's just a little strange."

"Strange? Tell me more."

"Well, senior, you see, these monsters in front of us are basically rock wolves, and this kind of monsters usually live on rocks in the mountains. Unless they migrate, it is impossible for them to come down the mountain in large numbers." The white wolf said, looking at the monsters that had fallen to the ground in front of him.

Hearing this, Qi Yong hesitated. "You mean the monsters are coming down the mountain in large numbers? It's very likely that something happened on the mountain?"

"That's right." White Wolf nodded, then turned and asked, "That's not right, Senior. You said you are a hunter in this mountain, so you shouldn't be unaware of the habits of this generation of monsters, right?"

Qi Yong snorted coldly and replied, "That's true, but when did I ever say I was a hunter in this mountain?"

"That's right. This area is deserted except for the volcano and the desert. Even if there are people, they probably won't live there for a long time." White Wolf thought with his head down.

No one is perfect. Although the senior is a hermit, he may have some flaws. For example, there was a previous work in which a female master character could split the world, but she was a directionally challenged person. Maybe the senior is the same?

This is what he thought at the moment.

"But no matter what, as a soldier here, I still need to investigate the situation around here." said White Wolf.

"Huh? Are you kidding me, considering your current state?" Qi Yong said in disbelief. "Indeed, although I did say that you have no problem dealing with these monsters with your strength, your condition isn't completely stable after all. Once you get too tired, you'll fall into the same trap again."

"But even so, I can't just sit back and watch." He turned around and said, "Don't worry, I'm just wandering around here. I won't take action unless it's absolutely necessary. Right now, the most important thing is to investigate the situation around here first."

"You have courage." Qi Yong smiled lightly and said, "Well, in that case, I will also sacrifice my life to accompany you for once."

"Thank you very much, senior." White Wolf said with a smile.

Qi Yong snorted coldly, shook his head and said, "Oh, no need to thank me. If I had known it would be so troublesome, I shouldn't have interfered with your affairs.

"I'm really sorry." White Wolf said with a helpless smile.

"Okay, let's go. Do you still want me to help you complete the task of exploring the surrounding area?" Qi Yong said with his hands folded.

Bai Lang smiled slightly, then walked towards the mountain with Qi Yong in the direction where the monster appeared.

The further up the mountain they climbed, the more eerie the atmosphere grew. The once bright sky was now shrouded in a thick fog, reducing visibility to a minimum of a few steps ahead. The ground beneath their feet grew soft and damp, and from time to time, strange noises could be heard from all directions, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them from the darkness.

"Senior, do you feel that something is wrong here?" Bai Lang lowered his voice and looked around vigilantly.

"Hmph, it's indeed a bit strange." Qi Yong gripped the weapon in his hand tightly, scanning the surrounding fog with sharp eyes. "Be careful, there may be danger ahead."

The two men advanced cautiously when suddenly a deep growl erupted from the front, followed by a gigantic rock wolf that leaped out of the mist. This rock wolf was several times larger than the ordinary rock wolves they had encountered before, and it exuded a dangerous aura.

It was surrounded by many rock wolves and other monsters. The two of them stood aside and watched everything quietly.

"It seems that I guessed right. Normally, the monsters here don't gather together so openly." White Wolf said in a low voice as he looked at everything in front of him.

Qi Yong nodded: "Yes, this scene looks more like a patrol than a migration."

"Patrol?" White Wolf was stunned.

"Yes, didn't you notice that these monsters all have collars around their necks, as if someone has raised them specifically as guard dogs?"

"Ah, raising?" The white wolf looked carefully and found that the monsters all had faintly visible collars around their necks, and there seemed to be some strange runes engraved on the collars.

"Really? What's going on? Who would raise monsters here?" White Wolf frowned, his heart full of doubts.

Qi Yong folded his arms and said nonchalantly, "Whoever it is, to be able to control so many monsters, must be no ordinary character. We have to be careful."
