Chapter 2017 - 1830: You’re a Master
"Be careful of Lu Ke’s sneak attack."
Gude saw his claw miss and quickly shouted to the other werewolves.
He thought Lu Ke would attack the other werewolves, but after a few seconds, Lu Ke didn’t make a move, as if he had vanished.
And that shout from Gude distracted the werewolves. The situation they had just managed to turn around immediately started to crumble again.
"Hmph, Gude, you’re such a fool!"
Behind Gude came Lu Ke’s disdainful voice.
"Bastard!"
Gude cursed and turned to pounce towards the back.
To his delight, Lu Ke was standing two meters away behind him.
He stepped forward, swinging his massive wolf claw towards Lu Ke’s head.
The sharp wolf claw glinted coldly in the darkness.
If this claw struck Lu Ke, his head would surely shatter on the spot.
Curiously, as the claw closed in, Lu Ke remained motionless, a strong sense of mockery in his eyes.
His mockery infuriated Gude.
Gude, determined to kill, infused his strength into the wolf claw and struck.
The wolf claw passed through Lu Ke’s head, yet there was no scene of shattered brains.
Only a flickering shadow showed, leaving Lu Ke’s head completely unscathed.
"Gude, you look like an idiot."
Lu Ke shrugged, mocking him.
Gude furrowed his brows, his fierce gaze fixed on the Lu Ke before him. He reached out to grab him, but the wolf claw passed easily through Lu Ke’s body.
Before him was just an illusion.
Gude’s mouth twitched, feeling just as Lu Ke said, like an idiot being played with.
Growing more furious, he looked around, trying to find Lu Ke’s real form, but found nothing.
He roared helplessly, "What the hell is going on?"
It wasn’t just Gude; all the werewolves were bewildered at that moment.
They had heard of Shadow Assassin Lu Ke, but never expected him to be so powerful.
This skill of creating illusions was unfathomable, almost placing Lu Ke in an invincible position.
"Xiao’er, how about we leave?"
A werewolf with golden fur defeated an opponent and called back to Nie Wushuang.
This werewolf was Emily.
Nie Wushuang, although very much wanting to obtain the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, realized that compared to the lives of these werewolves, the Ice Crystal Holy Grail was insignificant.
She immediately nodded and said, "I’ll carry Song Yun, you cover us, and we’ll retreat together."
Saying this, Nie Wushuang was about to carry Song Yun.
But the next scene made Nie Wushuang stop.
Lu Ke had appeared behind Emily somehow, hitting her on the back.
Thud.
The wolf-like Emily spewed a mouthful of blood and staggered forward.
The Dark Holy See member she was fighting with held a dagger, taking the opportunity to stab towards her abdomen.
"Sister Emily!"
Nie Wushuang exclaimed, not caring about Song Yun anymore, and rushed towards Emily.
Her aid was already too late.
However, at the critical moment, Lu Ke instructed, "I want her alive, I’ve never slept with a werewolf."
Following his orders, the Dark Holy See member holding the dagger instantly retracted it, reaching with the other hand to grab Emily’s neck, trying to control her.
"Roar."
Suddenly, the previously bowed Emily raised her head sharply, opening her bloody mouth to bite the person’s hand.
Lu Ke’s attack was strong, and Emily was not lightly wounded.
But her fighting spirit was not crushed.
With this bite, her sharp wolf teeth directly severed the person’s hand.
"Ah!"
The Dark Holy See member screamed in agony, eyes filled with rage, ignoring Lu Ke’s command, and swung the dagger with the other hand to stab at Emily’s neck.
Suddenly, a figure appeared, crashing into the Dark Holy See member, knocking him aside.
The one who intervened was Nie Wushuang.
Although she couldn’t hurt him, she made him drop the dagger, saving Emily.
"Sister Emily, are you okay?"
Nie Wushuang quickly supported Emily, asking with concern.
"Xiao’er, watch out."
Emily exclaimed, pulling Nie Wushuang behind her.
Squish.
A dagger was thrust into Emily’s abdomen.
The one who struck was Lu Ke.
He picked up a dagger, originally aiming at Nie Wushuang.
According to height, it should have hit Nie Wushuang’s shoulder.
But as it stabbed into the wolf-transformed Emily, it penetrated the abdomen.
"Roar!"
Emily roared in anger, swiping a claw at Lu Ke.
"Emily, it’s an illusion, you can’t hit him."
Gude shouted, running towards Emily.
Emily didn’t heed Gude’s words; her claw still reached forward.
Lu Ke quickly retreated backward.
Rip.
Lu Ke’s clothes tore, leaving a blood scar on his abdomen.
A real body?!
Seeing this, everyone was surprised; although Emily’s claw hadn’t truly injured Lu Ke, it had touched him.
Knowing Emily is a high-ranking Earl, if that claw had hit solidly, it would seriously injure Lu Ke.
Immediately, the werewolves ignited with hope.
Lu Ke could be beaten!
Gude was stunned for a moment, then directly charged at Lu Ke, eyes filled with excitement. Since Emily could hit him, Lu Ke must be real, and Gude could strike him too.
"Hmph!"
Suddenly, Lu Ke snorted coldly, retreating backward and standing still, looking at Gude with disdain.
"Lu Ke, are you still trying to bluff? Hmph, I won’t stop, you will die!"
