Guided by Li Qiuyu's reminder, Su Xi didn't hesitate and prepared to test her flames.
Her solar true fire was inexhaustible, so she had no worries about running out. As long as it was effective, she wouldn't mind even turning into a little fire person.
Su Xi waved her hand, summoning the solar true fire from within her, and then hurled the solar true fire in her hand fiercely at the giant wolf behind her.
To ensure her hit rate, Su Xi also conjured numerous fireballs.
The intense flames instantly illuminated the entire sky, and a searing heat enveloped the whole space.
Within this fierce blaze, the giant wolf felt a surge of fear and involuntarily stopped in its tracks, not daring to come any closer.
The giant wolf roared, its gaze filled with fury as it looked at Su Xi.
In all these years, no one had dared to treat it like this.
Having been in this place since birth, it had no idea what kind of flame Su Xi was throwing. However, the power within its bloodline offered no solution.
Seeing the giant wolf's reaction, Su Xi knew her attack was indeed effective.
This colossal creature was genuinely afraid of fire.
Since she knew her flames were working, she naturally wouldn't back down.
Therefore, Su Xi decisively chose to press her advantage.
In no time, Su Xi unleashed her solar true fire without reservation, bombarding the giant wolf and quickly turning the entire area into a sea of flames.
Now, she was ready to roast the giant wolf.
"Roar~"
The giant wolf leaped about like a restless tiger in the inferno, dodging Su Xi's attacks and searching for a safe spot.
Despite its best efforts, the flames were simply too immense. Much of the giant wolf's fur was ignited multiple times. Though it managed to extinguish the flames promptly, patches of black scars remained, giving it a somewhat comical appearance.
If not for the prolonged exposure to radiation that caused significant mutations in its body, it would have turned into a pile of ashes by now from the solar true fire.
"What a stubborn creature," Su Xi muttered, seeing the wolf seemingly unharmed, yet continuing to hurl flames at it.
If one attack wouldn't kill it, she'd try again.
With such powerful flames, she would roast the giant wolf until it was cooked.
In a moment, the giant wolf seemed to be gradually adapting to Su Xi's rhythm and the surrounding high temperatures.
Thus, while its heart still harbored fear of the flames, the terror was no longer as overwhelming as before.
It began to consider attacking Su Xi's fiery onslaught.
This time, it didn't dodge. Instead, it endured Su Xi's solar true fire head-on, seizing the opportunity to lunge for Su Xi's carotid artery, intending to deliver a killing blow.
It was completely driven by desperation now, unconcerned about getting injured.
A little injury in exchange for a meal.
No matter how one looked at it, it seemed like a worthwhile trade.
Seeing the giant wolf suddenly go berserk, Su Xi felt a sense of helplessness.
This creature was truly throwing caution to the wind.
But even if it was willing to risk its life, couldn't it avoid dragging her down with it?
Couldn't it fight like a normal opponent?
Why resort to such self-harming tactics?
Su Xi knew that at such close range, defeating the giant wolf with flames was no longer feasible. Therefore, she drew her Meteor God Sword, preparing for a head-on confrontation.
She still had the power of her mecha, and she refused to believe she couldn't defeat a mere wolf.
"Clang~"
As the giant wolf and Su Xi collided, a sound akin to metal striking metal erupted.
With that sound, Su Xi felt her tiger's mouth go numb, and her entire arm seemed to absorb a tremendous impact, leaving her momentarily stunned.
Once Su Xi recovered, she didn't hesitate and immediately resumed her assault.
She knew she had suffered a significant impact, but the giant wolf surely wouldn't fare any better.
Such immense force was precisely the opportune moment for her to counterattack.
Having confirmed this, Su Xi's power intensified.
Instantly, her Meteor God Sword unleashed its full might. Flames erupted from the blade, engulfing it entirely.
Simultaneously, Su Xi roared, "Green Lotus Sword Array, activate!"
With her movements, countless flying swords appeared around the giant wolf, encircling it tightly. Each of these flying swords was imbued with flames.
The intense fire stung the giant wolf, filling it with unprecedented fear.
It roared and struggled, trying to break free from the confinement Su Xi had imposed.
However, the raging inferno around it blocked its every move, giving it no chance to advance or escape.
As the circle of swords tightened, the giant wolf grew furious but found no solution.
Seizing the moment the giant wolf was trapped, Su Xi urged the myriad flying swords to slice into it densely.
Though she knew the giant wolf's body was tough, her Meteor God Sword was not merely for show.
Even if this giant wolf was formidable, she was confident she could cut it down.
If she continued to wear it down, the giant wolf would surely be unable to hold on.
Indeed, at first, Su Xi's flying swords only left faint white marks on the giant wolf. But as thousands of her flying swords struck the same spots, a different effect emerged.
Quantity gave rise to quality.
Deep gashes soon appeared on the giant wolf, revealing bone that looked terrifying under the firelight. The intense pain continued to assault the giant wolf's nerves, causing it to let out heart-wrenching screams.
It had never imagined it would end up like this.
Looking at the giant wolf before her, Su Xi felt immense pressure and a touch of exasperation.
Having sustained so many injuries, it was still alive, which was utterly unbelievable. Its powerful recovery ability was truly astounding.
If she hadn't witnessed it firsthand, she wouldn't have believed any of it was real.
If the giant wolf survived, it would undoubtedly be a future menace.
However, since she had already committed to the fight, Su Xi wouldn't be deterred by such tactics.
She resolutely struck again, swiftly attacking the giant wolf before her.
Because the giant wolf already had wounds on its body, this attack required little effort, and it was easily dismembered.
Seeing the giant wolf reduced to strips of raw meat on the ground, Su Xi's face held no hint of joy. Instead, her expression grew even more solemn.
For at that moment, a pack of giant wolves had appeared before her without her realizing when.
Though these wolves were not as large as the first one, they looked strikingly similar, clearly mutated creatures just like the first.
With so many giant wolves surrounding her, it was evident this wouldn't be an easy fight.
The giant wolves, gazing at Su Xi, drooled at the corners of their mouths, eager to take a bite.
Previously, the presence of the alpha wolf had kept them from approaching.
Now that the alpha was gone, they had no reservations.
If they could devour Su Xi, they would enjoy the flesh and blood they had only heard of in legends.
Facing the multitude of giant wolves, Su Xi knew that passive evasion was not an option. She gritted her teeth and prepared to take the offensive.
Her Meteor God Sword, trailing a torrent of flames, surged towards the distant wolves.
Her speed was swift, and her flames were potent.
In a short time, she ignited the pack of wolves.
Although these giant wolves looked identical, they were not as formidable as the alpha. Their defenses were strong, but not to that abnormal degree.
Understanding this, Su Xi's attacks intensified.
Since these wolves wanted to eat her, she would give them a gift in return.
The fierce flames caused the giant wolves to yelp and howl, their formation breaking down completely, leaving them with no recourse.
As their companions fell one by one, their desire to devour Su Xi began to wane.
For them, survival was now the paramount concern.
Without survival, everything else was in vain.
Since Su Xi had activated her sword array, she had no intention of letting these giant wolves escape. As they fled, she pursued them.
She felt a sense of triumph, like a serf who had overthrown their master, and she wouldn't let them go.
"Boom~"
The flames raged fiercely, leaving considerable marks on the giant wolves. All around, the aroma of roasted meat permeated the air.
If she had brought any seasonings, Su Xi would have loved to have a barbecue.
After all, these giant wolves, with their consistent movement, must have had well-developed muscles, making them chewy and satisfying. Having not eaten fresh meat in a long time, Su Xi felt a pang of nostalgia.
However, before Su Xi could even collect the wolf meat that had fallen to the ground, she suddenly sensed something amiss.
The giant wolves, fleeing with flames licking at them, didn't seem to be merely escaping. Instead, they appeared to be leading her somewhere, a place where further dangers awaited.
Upon realizing this, Su Xi naturally stopped her pursuit.
She decisively let the giant wolves escape and quickly headed in another direction.
For her, the most important thing now was not to kill, but to find the person she was looking for.
And the prerequisite for finding someone was, of course, to stay alive.
Yet, those giant wolves that had been fleeing all around, enduring the searing pain of the flames, suddenly turned back and encircled Su Xi, trapping her.
Each giant wolf emitted a guttural sound, as if performing some ancient ritual directed at Su Xi.
The myriad sounds, sometimes near, sometimes far, made Su Xi's fur stand on end, as if she were being targeted by the most terrifying entity in the world.
