After the Black Wolf was pushed away by me, it crashed heavily onto the ground. I thought it would go down for good, but it actually struggled back to its feet. It let out a deafening roar, and the surrounding demonic beasts grew even more restless, issuing a chorus of howls as if responding to the Black Wolf's call. My heart sank, and I had a bad feeling about this.
What made me even more uneasy was Young Master Zhang. Far from being frightened by the Black Wolf's transformation, he wore a sinister smile, his eyes filled with anticipation and excitement, as if waiting for something. Suspicion rose in my heart: could the Black Wolf's transformation be related to him?
Before I had time to dwell on it, the Black Wolf launched another attack. Both its speed and strength surpassed what they were before. As its sharp claws slashed through the air, they whipped up fierce gusts of wind. I hurriedly swung my sword to parry, concentrating my spiritual energy onto the blade. Every strike carried fierce sword qi, chopping down upon the Black Wolf.
