BAIHU (White Tiger Warrior): Challenging the Dragon
CHAPTER 79 | Black Wolf comes loose

“Zhang Wu, go! I order you to prepare the generals for full alert in their cities,” his father the King of the Western Desert ordered while handing over a military commander's coat of arms to his son Zhang Wu.

Zhang Wu's eyes twinkled receiving the military commander's emblem. This allowed him to move the military on behalf of the King of the Western Desert.

“Good dad. I will do my job well,” said.

After the Western Desert King nodded his head, Zhang Wu immediately rushed to devise his plan to visit the cities guarded by the generals of the Western Desert kingdom.

“Zhang Wu is too ambitious, but his cleverness is incredible. Zhang Mou is less ruthless to lead, he is still affected by his emotions.” The Western Desert King pondered on his three children yet he was saddened to remember Zhang Ji who had just died in battle.

“Baihu, damn boy. I will avenge the death of my son to you,” The King of the Western Desert gritted his teeth.

*****

A week after the incident at the foot of the mountains of Wuxia. In order to avoid the direct involvement of the major sects openly, Baihu set up a hidden headquarters in the city of Wuxia as a commando spot in his attack.

“Golden City is the closest city where General Song Que with his thousands of troops. We must conquer this city first,” Baihu said in front of his friends.

“True. To infiltrate the Golden City, we must disperse and disguise ourselves. After that, we create a shadow headquarters inside the city while scouting the city and the activities of their troops up close before carrying out the attack,” Yang Zi continued.

“Our sect is in Golden city, we will help you infiltrate into the city,” said one member of the Huasan sect.

It seemed that the sense of brotherhood between the big sects had been excellent ever since Baihu appeared and became the glue for those who had previously competed with each other in terms of strength. Now all united for the purpose of defending their sect and counterattacking the Western Desert kingdom.

This was due to the interference of the Western Desert kingdom in the capture and confinement of their sect chief for a year so they had trouble finding them. The entire sect became antipathy and vengeance to the Western Desert kingdom.

Suddenly came someone from the Sun Moon sect hurriedly wanting to meet Baihu.

“Baihu. Bad news, the sect of the King's Tomb has been destroyed.” exclaimed the person who came while breathing heavily

The eyes of the people in the headquarters room were wide-eyed at the news delivered by the person from the Sun Moon sect. “What happened?”

“A merchant in the city of Wuxia told me that a few days ago the city of Bintang was shocked by the killing of people from the sect of the King's Tomb. They were apparently killed by some kind of beast that tore apart the body of the sect head, the elders and disciples of the sect”.

In the Western Desert Kingdom there were two big sects residing there, the King Tomb sect and the Huasan sect. In the south there is the Ming sect and the Kunlun sect, in the north there is the Wudang sect and in the east the Ice Moon sect. The rest are in the mountains near the city of Wuxia.

“We must go immediately to the city of Gold. Do not let the Huasan sect also be affected by such a disaster.” Baihu immediately ordered their friends to prepare to go to the Golden city to protect the Huasan sect and also carry out the next plan.

In the afternoon Baihu and Wang Mei who were disguised as merchants had entered the Golden city and headed straight for the residence of the Huasan sect. Their other friends were there one by one.

“The sect chief, apologize for the inconvenience we have come to this residence of the Huasan sect,” Baihu said saluting the sect head of Huasan.

“Baihu, you are an honorary member of the entire sect, you are free to come to the residence of any sect,” said sect head Huasan

“We have also tightened guard and reconnaissance around the Huasan.” sect continued the head of the Huasan sect.

Baihu and their friends listened to the explanations as well as reports from the Hujan sect people who were sent as scouts from all over the Golden city area.

After the conversation, they rested the night to prepare for the next plan tomorrow.

******

That night the air felt colder than before, the residence of the Huasan sect had already looked deserted as the night had dissolved. Only a few people were still guarding around while carrying lanterns around the residence of the Huasan sect.

From the darkness of the night, flashed a figure that immediately attacked and tore apart the people who were guarding around. They did not have time to shout because the necks of the guards had all been hit by the hands of the perpetrators.

Inside the residence of the Huasan sect, it appeared that the figure was walking with claws on his right and left hands that were still dripping blood.

“STEALERS!” suddenly a few guards saw that coming figure. Then those guards within seconds were already sprawled on the ground without any lives with their necks almost severed.

That figure was the Black Wolf, a vicious and ruthless being caged by Chen Guo back then within the King Tomb sect. After Chen Guo's death, the creature's confinement was moved by Sun Yang. Now the creature was released and attacked into the residence of the Huasan sect.

“I didn't expect that coming was a beastly human figure,” Baihu said as he was awakened by the screams from the previous guard.

GRDRR...

The savage-looking human figure with fiery red eyes called the Black Wolf turned towards Baihu. He growled feeling Baihu was not an ordinary person who dared to face him.

Baihu jumped down and walked in front of the savage human. “You are a wolf, I am a tiger,” Baihu said back with his sharp gaze staring at the savage human without blinking.

GRDRR...

The Black Wolf savage man walked around Baihu before he was about to attack him. Baihu followed the movements of the Black Wolf using his eyes. Then as the Black Wolf leaped against him, Baihu was dodging the attack so swiftly that the Black Wolf's attack was only a few inches past his body.

Back the Black Wolf turned around and charged towards Baihu by using its claws moving ferociously wanting to tear apart Baihu's body. But Baihu avoided every shred of claws from him easily. Baihu then slammed his fist towards the claws of the Black Wolf.

Realizing the danger, the Black Wolf undoes his intention to continue his claw movement and make himself survive Baihu's fist.

“Great! This savage man could feel the attack I was about to send him then dodge it,” Baihu murmured in his heart.

The Black Wolf went back around Baihu as if it was about to find the weak spot of Baihu. Seeing that the Black Wolf had yet to take the initiative to attack, Baihu took the opportunity to attack him first.

Baihu's movements were simple, he was just using the Nine Universe's Sacred Palms to exert that palm towards the chest of the Black Wolf. Noticing the coming of danger, the Black Wolf leaped twitching from Baihu's palm strike.

However Baihu did not let it, he changed his attack now using the Fire Kick sweeping the lower half of the Black Wolf's body. The Black Wolf again sensed the attack on the lower half of his body, he jumped into the air avoiding the sweep of Baihu's leg attack.

As the savage human leaped into the air, Baihu had already first waited for him in the air. Seeing the opponent already waiting for him in midair, the Black Wolf moved his hand to tear Baihu apart. However, his movements were slower than Baihu who had lent his kick to the stomach of the Black Wolf.

“RROOOAARR...

The Black Wolf roared in pain by Baihu's kick that hit his stomach.
