Ye Jiao stayed on the tree for the next few minutes, pulling Eon Energy to nourish both her core and body. Her eyes were watching her surroundings as she wondered what kind of training would be the most suitable.
\"This is assassin training, what kind of practice does an assassin need?\"
She had heard that assassins were people who were good at killing people. They were able to kill people stronger than them because they used some kind of tricks such as poison, traps, hidden weapons….
\"I should have learned more,\" Ye Jiao sighed to herself. \"I don't have any of those, not even the knowledge to make one.\"
However, asking the children to make them would be a bit too much. There must be another reason for the men to push them into the large pit of fire in the forest filled with wolves like this. There was no way they wanted to kill the children.
Ye Jiao opened her eyes as she looked to the front. All she could see was trees around her. She could guess that the wolves might not be near her because she couldn't sense them. Occasionally, she would hear their howl, but nothing more than that.
\"Maybe they want us to kill the wolves?\"
It was not impossible, but it would be hard for them to kill the wolves without getting cornered. They didn't have any weapon with them. Most importantly, how could they fight against numerous beasts that were stronger than them?
That would be insane.
Ye Jiao pulled the branch near her and broke it. Her finger played with the small and thin branch. \"I can make a weapon by sharpening the end of a branch, but can this kill numerous wolves at once?\"
Numerous wolves?
How about just one? Ye Jiao's mind spun hard as she thought about it. At this moment, she realized that it was not impossible for her to fight back and kill the wolves. She would be unable to fight back against all of them, but she should be able to lure them one by one.
\"Alright, time to hunt.\"
Ye Jiao jumped down and carefully walked around. She tried to suppress her own breath as it might give away her position while trying to find the wolf pack.
Awooooo!
'They are near.'
The sound signaled that they must be not far from her. With agile movement, Ye Jiao stepped on the ground carefully and approached the wolves. She could see that they were scattered around in a large area. It would not be impossible for her to approach the furthest one.
'Here we go.'
Ye Jiao sprinted from her position and used the branch that she brought as a stick. The wolf not far from her was startled, but Ye Jiao had reached him before he could react. The branch hit the wolf's neck, but Ye Jiao could feel the hard resistance from the skin and muscle inside.
The wolf glared at Ye Jiao as he jumped to the back. Blood trickled down from the wound on his neck that Ye Jiao made.
Awoooooooo!
'This is bad,' Ye Jiao turned around and climbed the tree not far from her as the wolves pounced at her direction. Her heart was beating fast as she tried her best to calm herself down.
With numerous wolves pouncing on the tree, it started to shake, so Ye Jiao jumped to another tree. She had done this a few times in the past to escape the Wei siblings, so it was not hard for her to continue jumping on the trees.
One way or another, she managed to escape from the wolves.
\"That's a close one,\" Ye Jiao looked at the broken branch on her hand. She still remembered the feeling of this thing stabbed into the wolf's neck. From the blood stain that remained, she realized that it was not enough.
\"I have to use a longer and sharper stick.\"
Ye Jiao broke another branch and used her hand to clean the smaller ones. She frowned when she saw the end of the branch didn't look sharp. It would be hard for her to fight if she didn't find a way to sharpen it.
However, she couldn't think of anything right now.
\"Right, the force from my run is not enough, so I have to use another way,\" Ye Jiao pondered about her method. \"How about if I try to jump down?\"
Gravitation would accelerate her fall. If she focused her fall on the attack, it should be able to pierce through the wolf's neck. Well, if she failed, the end result would be her death.
\"It's worth a try.\"
With that, Ye Jiao tried to search for another pack of wolves. She made sure that she moved as slow as possible without leaking her intention outside. Even though her method was clumsy, it was enough to fool these unranked wolves.
It didn't take long for Ye Jiao to find another pack of wolves, which made her sure that this place was filled with wolves. However, it seemed that most children adopted the same way as her, which was to hide and only attack occasionally.
She inched closer to the wolf as her mind calculated the wolf's movements. Sweat trickled down on her forehead as she anticipated the wolf getting closer to the designated place. When the wolf reached the place, Ye Jiao jumped down from the tree straight to the wolf's body.
She made sure that her hand was at the bottom, but when it reached the wolf's neck, she could feel the strong force to her hand. Despite it was painful, she kept her hand firm and the stick pierced straight to the wolf's neck. Her aim missed a bit, but it still pretty good.
Her body crashed down to the wolf's body. Thanks to the fur and meat pillow, she didn't suffer any wounds.
Ye Jiao realized that the wolf was still alive, so she pulled up the stick and stabbed it at a different angle to the wolf's neck. The wolf died right away. After that, she jumped to the back and climbed back up the tree as the other wolves pounced on her direction. They didn't succeed as Ye Jiao managed to climb high enough.
'That was close.'
Ye Jiao wiped the sweat on her forehead as her eyes were looking at the wolves with curiosity. Will they follow her by climbing trees? She had never heard that wolf could climb tree, though…
\"AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa!\"
Loud scream came from a nearby place. The wolves decided to disregard Ye Jiao as they dashed to the source of the yell. Left alone on the tree, Ye Jiao blinked several times. Now she realized why the children decided to keep their mouth shut most of the time. The wolves were attracted to their voices too.
'Weird wolves, those men must have arranged it.'
Keeping silent must be something important for an assassin, so they were trained to not speak at all. Reminder would not be enough, so the best way was to make the wolves to be attracted to voice. It was really brutal, but she and the other children would never forget to not speak this way.
Ye Jiao chose to not think too much as she climbed down the tree and started to clean up the meat. There was no knife around, so she made use of thin and sharp rock to cut some meat and skin them.
She could only eat a bit of meat, so the rest would be left behind to attract the wolves back here again.
\"Time to practice again.\"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
