Chapter 183: The Unexpected Message

Hao Ren pushed Nangong Wuyue towards the alpha wolf, and introduced her. "This is the doctor I mentioned. She has great skill. She can get you dentures. Where are those black wolves with broken teeth?"

The alpha wolf looked rather surprised. It looked at the people in front of it with astonishment and, subconscioudly dangled its head, saying, "You actually brought the doctor... I've never seen such a strange human like you. Who actually keeps a promise with an animal?"

Hao Ren became a little unhappy. "Do you hear yourself? I wasn't joking, okay. You're being bias against humans."

"It's not prejudice, it's just a fact. I've dealt with humans and other human-like races. They are very self-centered and judge everything based on appearance. Even if we speak, they still treat us as animals. An honest person like you is really rare." The alpha wolf crouched down and scratched its neck with its rear paw. "I've sent my men to call those cubs with broken teeth over. I'm bringing my people out for hunting today. Those with broken teeth can't help so, they stayed at home. It's not far from here. They will reach soon."

Two young black wolves ran back to their home under the alpha wolf's order and soon disappeared in the vast grassland. Becky pulled several of the horses that were frightened by the wolves and tied them up far away from the wolves. Then, she approached Hao Ren and said, "So, we pulled up just for this? I thought it was something important. You're really close with these wolves, huh."

The alpha wolf immediately nodded his head and greeted Becky, "Oh, hello, swordsman. We've met before in the past."

Everybody was silent.

Lily was in a great mood after she saw her "distant relatives" in this world, and soon, she was mixing with a few black wolves. While they waited for the "patients", she talked with a few black wolves about day-to-day topics that only canines could understand. For example, what kind of bone chew was best, how should the nose be taken care of in winter, and the inconvenience they faced when they shed. Anyway, Hao Ren had difficulty understanding these topics, especially when it came to shedding. The weather had turned cold lately and Lily really started to shed. It could only be noticed whenever she transformed into a husky. And because this girl often let her tail and ears out to get some fresh air at home, Hao Ren had to spend a lot of time to clean up fluff on the sofa every day... In short, anything related to Lily gave Hao Ren a headache.

After the werewolf girl and black wolves chatted for a while, each of them felt the urge to express themselves. Therefore, they ran up to the little mound, crouched in a row and began to howl.

Becky looked at Hao Ren and his companions as though she saw some rare animals. She said, "Your daily life must be very interesting..."

Hao Ren sighed and replied, "It's too interesting."

The alpha wolf was right. The place was quite close to the wolves' current stronghold. Soon, those unlucky, black wolves with broken teeth were brought over. They looked thinner than before. Although they were still very healthy, their physiques were obviously not as good as before. Not only were they unable to eat well after losing their teeth, due to their loss of combat power and their inability to participate in hunts, their bodies were naturally affected in the long run. The alpha wolf looked at its dejected members of the pack. It suddenly got a little angry, and roared. The unlucky ones were frightened and shook violently. "All of you, look up! Have a little spirit, okay? Outsiders are watching. You all have to reflect the pack's spirit!"

A wolf knew so many human words. Hao Ren felt it really should not have been a wolf.

Nangong Wuyue came to check on the condition of the wolves' teeth. The wolves had a little resistance to a strange "human" opening their mouths. However, after they heard that this was the doctor who could implant dentures for them, they immediately became submissive and even scrambled a little. Nangong Wuyue gave them a rough check up, raised her head and said, "No problem, just minor injuries. The roots of the teeth are still present. They can regenerate with the help of my Magic Water Treatment."

Hao Ren suddenly let out a long sigh. To be honest, he truly felt a little sorry for these wolves. After all, he was the one who caused them to lose their teeth. He had forgotten the fact that he was the one being attacked on that day. Perhaps there was some kind of change in mentality after one had obtained power. At that point, mind-shattering events were just something trivial to Hao Ren's heart. He used to get his stomach in a twist when he faced the attacking wolves but now, he only thought of breaking their teeth or not. After all, the attack of the black wolves was only as lethal as Rollie in the house.

Nangong Wuyue had begun to treat the black wolves' teeth. They did not see her reading any mantra. She did not cast any spells or made any gestures. They just saw the siren being gradually surrounded by a layer of rainbow-like mist with the sun's reflection on it. The mist slowly dispersed and even Hao Ren, who was standing outside the range of the mist felt refreshed: This thing was much better than an air freshener and the so-called negative oxygen ion air conditioner. The black wolves shrouded in the middle of the mist, felt comfortable, and kept nodding. They lay at Nangong Wuyue's feet spinelessly and laughed like huskies.

Nangong Wuyue reminded the black wolves, "From now on, it may feel be a little itchy. You guys just have to endure it. If it really becomes unbearable, just chew on the grass. It only lasts for a few minutes."

Just as the wolves were about to object and say how could wolves eat grass while showing the strength and fortitude of being a wolf, a terrible itch came to their mouth. "Auw!" They immediately shouted on the spot, jumped up and chewed on the grass around them. Their teeth began to regenerate quickly.

The alpha wolf was amazed by the scene. It ignored its own image, leaned forward and asked, "Can you treat me? I also lost two teeth."

Yes, the alpha wolf also lost two of its teeth. They were broken by Hao Ren.

Nangong Wuyue certainly agreed. Soon, the alpha wolf was frantically chewing up the turf together with its men. After some agony, their broken teeth were healed. These black wolves lay side by side on the grass without caring about their image anymore. They rubbed their bodies around comfortably. The alpha wolf smacked its lips and said, "I can articulate properly... This feels comfortable!"

When the rest of the wolves saw that even their leader was in such a state, they immediately became restless and queued up in front of Nangong Wuyue. Those who had been sick and could only rely on God finally met a doctor who could cure them. They immediately told Nangong Wuyue their problems. Some of them needed dentures, some of them had arthritis, some of them had waist pains, some of them had indigestion, and there was one saying that its face was too short. It wanted to see if Wuyue could lengthen its face. It requested for cosmetic surgery!

Nangong Wuyue stood there, a little dumbfounded. She did not expect these black wolves' spiritual life to be so colourful. Facing some demands beyond her ability, she could only wave and say, "I can't perform cosmetic surgery...or face reading... Shedding is mainly because of the weather."

Becky was staring at the interesting scene when she looked at the sky. She realised it was getting late so, she had to remind them. "Are you guys still going to the lake? I'm afraid that we can't reach the village before sundown if we don't depart now."

Only then did they remember that they had something more important to do. Hao Ren had to say goodbye to the alpha wolf. "We have to go now. There is still a long way for us to go."

"Where are you going?" The alpha wolf jumped up from the ground, spit out the grass in his mouth and asked, "Quite a lot of people have been heading in that direction recently, and you guys look like you're in a hurry to depart... Are you on the same journey as they are?"

Hao Ren guessed that it was referring to the mercenary regiments, which went searching for pearls two months ago. He nodded and said, "We are going to the Beinz Blood Lake."

"Humans are weird, always running around for some inexplicable reason," muttered the alpha wolf. "Is there a lot of food in this place called the Beinz Blood Lake?"

Becky grinned and said, "There's no food but, there is something more important for us humans: a lot of money. I won't have to worry about food for the rest of my life!"

"Oh, you are going there for the money. Yet another difficult thing to understand," the alpha wolf muttered and turned its head. "Can't compare with the strange woman two I met days ago. At least she wanted to go there to get home. This is easier to understand."

"Wait, what are you talking about? To get home?" Hao Ren suddenly found this to be something of interest. He realised what was wrong after he called the alpha wolf: Who would live in the Beinz Blood Lake, which was a barren land? Where was the woman going back to?

"Yes, a tall, thin woman. Said she was from another world, and asked me if there was a large space gate around. I heard about the Beinz Blood Lake leading to the Otherworld so, I told her about it."
