The Herb King

Chapter 391: Scaring the Nascent Soul Beasts

The distance between them was only ten meters. With their power and enhanced physical abilities, they could clearly see each other's faces.

Kazak narrowed his eyes. This human was strangely calm even in front of four Nascent Soul savage beasts. He even intentionally released a fraction of his peak Nascent Soul aura to scare off the human, but he showed no reaction whatsoever. 'Who is this guy? I don't remember someone like this in the information provided by the old man from the Coleman Family.'

"Hey! Who are you?! Do you even know who we are?!" Argent's annoying voice echoed into their ears.

If it was any other time, Kazak would have stopped Argent, but he wanted to see how the human would respond to this.

The observant Gargan and Serene also noticed this so they decided to keep quiet and let Argent do as he pleased.

Aethelwolf turned his gaze to Argent. With one glance, he could tell what kind of savage beast this guy was. His vision had been enhanced countless times after assimilating different kinds of perception skills so even if they changed into human form, he could identify them at a glance. "Who is this little lion?"

"Did he just call me little lion?" Argent's face twitched upon hearing his words, while the trio behind him smirked.

"Little lion, did no one teach you manners before? When people are speaking, you shouldn't butt in." Aethelwolf spoke as if he was scolding a child.

This made Argent feel embarrassed and angry. "You f*ck*ng bastard! I'll kill you!" He bared his fangs and swiped his right arm which had transformed into a huge lion claw, tearing its way towards Aethelwolf.

Seeing this, Aethelwolf remained indifferent. He casually lifted his arm and stopped the gigantic claw with two fingers. The force behind the claw caused the ground beneath him to collapse, but Aethelwolf remained still.

"What?!" Argent was stunned. The human actually managed to stop his claw with two fingers! Even Kazak wasn't capable of doing this!

Argent tried to pull his claw away, but he realized that he couldn't break free. He was in an internal panic and his eyes revealed a trace of fear. At this moment, he knew for sure that this human was no average character.

Aethelwolf's words were like a hammer, shattering their dreams into pieces.

"No way! Even if they can't break through, I should be able to! I'm already at the peak of Nascent Soul for over a few centuries! I don't believe that I can't advance to the next realm!" Kazak shouted with a contorted expression. He had waited a long time for this opportunity so he couldn't believe what he heard.

Unlike Kazak, Serena and Gargan were too scared to speak. They just stared at Aethelwolf with quivering eyes.

Aethelwolf shook his head. "Do you think it's that easy to advance to the Void Tempering? How naive! If it was so easy, you would have already stepped into that stage a long time ago."

Kazak's face fell. He was right. He tried all sorts of ways to advance, but everything ended in failure.

"How about this? I'll give you all the opportunity to advance..." Aethelwolf muttered, his smile deepening. He was incredibly nervous in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. Tricking these powerful savage beasts was difficult so he had to be careful to not make any mistakes.

Hearing this, Kazak raised his head and looked at him with a shocked gaze. "You... what do you mean?"

"I can help you achieve your lifelong dream. In exchange, you guys have to work for me."

Kazak narrowed his eyes. "Do you think you can fool me with such lies?!"

Aethelwolf sighed as if he was disappointed by his response. "It looks like I have wasted my time talking with you. In that case, I shall send you all to he-"

"Wait!" Kazak gritted his teeth. This could be a trap, but there was also a chance that this was his last opportunity to advance. He stared deeply at Aethelwolf and muttered. "Let me hear your conditions..."

Aethelwolf almost failed to conceal his glee when he heard this. 'These savage beasts are really easy to fool.' He laughed coldly in his heart.
