Chapter 857

Under the shroud of night, clouds cloaked the sky, obscuring the moon, with only a faint twinkling of stars visible.

However, danger was stealthily encroaching on Saint Light, and more specifically, on its lively, bustling square.

Within the dark clouds and among the starlight, silhouettes of werewolves, with wings as wide as bats, were quietly drawing nearer to Saint Light.

Amidst the clouds, one could spot a particularly large werewolf

This werewolf was the sole survivor and leader from last night’s encounter who had managed to escape with his life.

It was because of this leader that the larger werewolf den had learned of Gilmore and his team’s elimination of dozens of their kind.

In response, the sub–chief of the den immediately dispatched several strong mid–level leaders to accompany the surviving lower leader back to Saint Light, intent on exacting revenge on Gilmore and his group.

The lesser leader looked towards the four mid–level leaders flying beside him and said, “Esteemed leaders, the humans we encountered last night were exceedingly strong.

“Please exercise extra caution.”

The four mid–level leaders‘ eyes gleamed with haughty disdain.

They scoffed at the lesser leader, “Hmph, Cony, it’s only because you lack strength that you couldn’t handle a few mere humans.”

“Indeed, and now you’ve dragged us four mid–leaders out here.

“I’m quite busy, to have my time wasted on a small city with scant spoils is truly infuriating.”

It was clear, without a doubt, that the four mid–level werewolf leaders were greatly dissatisfied with the lesser leader known as Cony.

With a meek nod, Cony acknowledged, “The leaders speak the truth, it’s all my fault.”

Then, the four mid–level werewolf leaders, leading a large group of their kind, approached Saint Light from above.

“Eh? What’s going on here?” As they flew over Saint Light, the four mid–level leaders immediately sensed something was

amiss.

“People… on the square below?”

“And so many of them!”

The grand square below was teeming with people, their laughter and music reaching the skies, making it impossible for the four mid–level werewolf leaders not to notice the commotion.

It wasn’t just the mid–level leaders. Cony and the rest of the thousand–strong werewolf pack also spotted the crowd on the

square

Sizzle!

Drool began to escape the mouths of all the werewolves.

But soon enough, they realized and hastily slurped it back in.

Chapter 837

The eyes of the four werewolf leaders sparkled with excitement they had assumed that their trip to Saint Light would be a tedious one with nothing to gain.

To their surprise, upon arrival, they found a grand square teeming with thousands of people a feast waiting for them this very night.

“Abul, we’ve hit the jackpot,” one of the mid–level werewolves remarked to another leader.

Joy flickered in Abul’s eyes as he responded to the other mid–level leader, Karul, “Indeed, we’ve been lucky”

However, at that moment, one of the mid–level leaders becaine cautious, turning to the other three leaders and saying, “Don’t you find this a bit odd?”

Confusion dawned in the eyes of Abul and Karul, as well as the other leader.

“Zaha, what do you find odd?” Abul looked at the mid–level leader and asked.

Zaha replied. “In the past, whenever we patrolled Saint Light, not a soul could be seen.

“So how is it that tonight, out of the blue, there are so many people out and about, gathering in the square to dance and sing?

“Aren’t they afraid of us werewolves launching a sudden attack?

Upon hearing Zaha’s words, the rest of the leaders also started to harbor suspicions.

Indeed, the survivors of Saint Light couldn’t possibly be unaware that werewolves haunted the city every night, hunting for the living.

It was truly suspicious. They didn’t hide but instead gathered openly in the square, reveling and singing with music that

filled the air.

Though the werewolves had the heads of wolves, their intelligence was no different from that of humans.

“Zaha, what do you make of this human gathering? Do you think they’re up to something? Abul asked, looking at Zaha for an explanation.

Zaha nodded, “There must be something fishy going on.”

“But are we just going to stand here, watching them, unable to lay a paw or take a bite?” Karul asked.

“Karul, theoretically, yes, Zaha replied.

“However, if this crowd has no traps and we let them slip away safely, it’s still a big loss for us.

“I have a plan though, a foolproof one.”

The other three werewolf leaders leaned in eagerly. “Zaha, out with it! What’s your foolproof plan?”

Zaha explained, “We’ve only brought about a thousand of our kind.

To be absolutely sure, we can signal the nearby werewolves for reinforcements.”

“While waiting for our backup, we can keep an eye on these humans to see what they’re plotting!”

The other leaders found his advice sensible.

Then, each of them pulled out a green jade bead and began to send out distress signals to the werewolves nearby through

these beads.

Chapter 837

About half an hour later, the werewolves hiding in the dark clouds above noticed that people on the square were still joyously singing, with the music continuing non–stop,

This began to convince them that these humans might not have set any traps after all.

“Zaha, it seems like these humans aren’t plotting anything?” All couldn’t help but speak out.

Karul nodded in agreement. “It looks like these humans really don’t take us seriously.”

Hearing the two leaders, Zaha was also puzzled. In theory, humans should be petrified of werewolves.

How could they so boldly ignore the threat of a werewolf attack gathering in the square to sing and dance? They were clearly not giving werewolves any consideration.
