Even women who travel through time can become prime ministers and nobles.

On the clear lakeshore, moonlight spilled across the shimmering surface, like a thin layer of silver gauze. Every now and then, various small animals would come to drink, taking advantage of the moonlight. They cautiously approached the lake, gently licking the water, and frequently turning their heads to warily survey their surroundings.

Shen Yanchu also found Cui Yu'an and brought him back to the camp. The three of them sat around the fire, while Wanxia prepared dinner. The firelight shone on their faces, and the aroma of food wafted through the air.

"Miss Shi, I apologize for any offense you may have caused. I was only concerned about your reputation and spoke a little hastily."

Cui Yu'an also found this girl somewhat incomprehensible. He sat quietly to the side, observing her. Her speech and manner of doing things revealed a kind of independent thinking, making one think that she was an educated person.

However, her behavior and demeanor appeared somewhat awkward, even a little lost.

This girl speaks clearly and logically, with well-defined viewpoints that make you want to listen to her thoughts. She is also decisive in her actions, without being wishy-washy, and has her own set of principles and methods, which sets her apart from other women.

"Young Master Cui, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary person. I was reckless today. I hope you two will not take offense."

Shi Wanxia showed no dissatisfaction on her face, and her eyes were sincere and gentle. Cui Yu'an couldn't figure out what the girl meant. Shen Yanchu, on the other hand, already had the answer in his heart. If the girl didn't show it on her face, she was probably already planning to stay far away from him.

Shen Yanchu sat quietly by the campfire, silently chewing the meat in his bowl. Although his gaze did not directly meet the girl's, he could sense the aloofness in her eyes.

He felt an urge to explain, but just as he was about to speak, a wolf howl suddenly echoed through the forest.

The wolf howls sounded particularly mournful and chilling in the silent night. Shi Wanxia's face turned pale instantly. She looked around in terror, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Shen Yanchu immediately put down the bowl in her hand, stood up, and warily watched the direction of the forest. Cui Yu'an also protected Shi Wanxia, ​​looking around at the situation.

His hand gripped the sword hilt tightly, ready to face any danger that might arise. The wolf howls grew closer, as if a pack of wolves was closing in on them. Shen Yanchu took a deep breath, trying to remain calm.

He knew that panicking would only make things worse at this moment. Shen Yanchu slowly walked towards the direction of the wolf howls, his steps light and steady.

His eyes gleamed in the darkness, as if they could pierce through it and see everything ahead. Cui Yu'an followed behind him, while Shi Wanxia dared not approach, only holding her knife and warily watching her surroundings.

Finally, they spotted a pack of wolves. The wolves looked particularly ferocious in the moonlight, their eyes gleaming green, emitting low growls. Shen Yanchu stopped, drew his sword, and prepared to engage the wolves in a desperate battle.

Shen Yanchu scanned his surroundings sharply, but did not see Shi Wanxia. He secretly guessed that the girl must have been frightened.

After all, anyone would feel fear when faced with such a ferocious pack of wolves.

However, time was of the essence, and they could not afford to delay any longer. Shen Yanchu took a deep breath, turned to look at Cui Yu'an beside him, and began to explain the plan to him.

"The two of us will each be responsible for half of the wolves. We need to find the wolf king and defeat him to have any chance of survival."

Shen Yanchu's voice was deep and firm, revealing an unquestionable determination.

Cui Yu'an nodded, his eyes equally resolute. They knew this was a life-or-death battle, and only by giving it their all could they hope to survive.

Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an quickly separated, each rushing towards the wolf pack. Their figures appeared exceptionally agile in the moonlight, their weapons gleaming coldly.

Sensing the threat, the wolves growled and pounced on them. Shen Yanchu and his companions, undaunted, brandished their weapons and engaged the wolves in fierce combat.

In an instant, shouts of battle and howls of wolves mingled together, echoing throughout the valley. Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an, relying on their outstanding martial arts skills and tenacious will, gradually gained the upper hand.

They moved with ease through the wolf pack, searching for the wolf king's trail. Finally, Shen Yanchu spotted the wolf king. Without hesitation, he charged towards it, weapon raised high, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

The wolf king was agile, its fur shimmering with a silvery-gray light in the moonlight. Its eyes revealed cunning and majesty. Facing Shen Yanchu's attacks, it showed no fear, nimbly dodging each deadly sword strike.

Shen Yanchu held a long sword, its blade gleaming coldly in the moonlight. His attacks were fierce and swift, but the Wolf King always managed to skillfully dodge them at the crucial moment.

The wolf king occasionally let out a deep howl, commanding the other wolves to launch a fierce attack on Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an.

The wolves surged in like a tide, and Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an fought back fiercely. Their strength was gradually being depleted, but they did not back down and engaged in a fierce life-or-death struggle with the wolves.

During the battle, Shen Yanchu's clothes were stained red with blood, and his breathing became rapid. However, his eyes remained firm, and the sword in his hand became even sharper. He knew that only by defeating the Wolf King could he escape danger.

The wolf king sensed Shen Yanchu's tenacity and its attacks became even more ferocious. However, Shen Yanchu, with his superb swordsmanship and unwavering will, ultimately prevented the wolf king from succeeding.

As time went on, the battle intensified. Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an gradually gained the upper hand, and the Wolf King began to appear somewhat overwhelmed.

Finally, Shen Yanchu found the wolf king's weakness and stabbed it in a vital spot with his sword. The wolf king let out a miserable howl and fell to the ground.

Seeing their alpha wolf fall, the other wolves scattered and fled. Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an had finally won; they sat exhausted on the ground, panting heavily.

"Zhizhou, how are you? Are you injured?" Cui Yu'an couldn't help but worry when he saw that Zhizhou was covered in blood.

"I'm fine, just a little weak. Let's go back first, so Miss Shi won't worry." Shen Yanchu forced herself to get up and helped Cui Yu'an. The two of them, covered in blood, slowly moved back.

Shi Wanxia sat quietly by the campfire, adding firewood while glancing occasionally in the direction they had gone. Her eyes were filled with worry and anticipation, and she silently prayed for their safe return.

After an unknown amount of time, two figures finally appeared in the distance. Shi Wanxia was overjoyed and quickly got up to greet them. However, when she saw what the two looked like, she was shocked. They were covered in blood, and their clothes were tattered, clearly indicating that they had been through a fierce battle.

Shi Wanxia quickly helped them sit down and let them rest and regulate their breathing. The two of them did not refuse and immediately closed their eyes and began to regulate their breathing. Shi Wanxia quietly watched over them, adding firewood from time to time to make the campfire burn brighter.

As time passed, their breathing gradually stabilized, and their complexions became rosy. Shi Wanxia's worries finally eased somewhat, and she sighed softly, relieved.

"Are you all alright? Did you deal with the wolf pack?"

Shi Wanxia poured two glasses of water for them. Shen Yanchu and Cui Yu'an waved their hands, saying that the wolf pack was nothing to worry about.

"Don't worry! We're fine. You weren't scared, were you? Miss Shi, rest well tonight. I'll keep watch."

Shen Yanchu was worried because although the wolf pack had been wiped out, the smell of blood would still attract other animals.
