Gao Zhengyang was in a forest of masson pine trees.
The branches and leaves of the masson pine trees were so long that they touched the ground. The branches and leaves were like barriers, making the space in the forest unusually narrow. It was almost impossible for people to walk through.
The humid air of early spring filled the forest with the strong scent of pine oil.
Due to the strange ecology of the forest, there were only small animals such as big-tailed squirrels and birds.
Gao Zhengyang chose to hide here because he knew that there would be no one standing guard here. There would also be no hunting dogs, wolves, or other animals.
After dealing with the matters of the Tielin Sect, he rode Little Cat to Howling Moon Valley.
Little Cat was very fast, and he knew the general direction of the Howling Moon Valley. Along the way, he encountered some scattered Golden Wolf people soldiers.
After capturing a few Wolf people soldiers who had fled back, it was easy to ask them about the situation in the Howling Moon Valley.
Gao Zhengyang chased all the way and soon caught up with a Wolf people expert. This time, he did not take action. Instead, he let Little Cat go and followed it. Successfully, he found the Howling Moon Valley.
Compared to the Tielin Sect, the Howling Moon Valley was much larger. However, in Gao Zhengyang's eyes, it was just the standard of an ordinary small town.
The Howling Moon Valley was surrounded by mountains. After taking a detour, Gao Zhengyang easily sneaked to the side of the Howling Moon Castle. As he was observing, he heard a scream.
After the scream from afar disappeared, waves of wolf howls could be heard.
Gao Zhengyang guessed that someone had been thrown down to feed the wolves. Considering that the voice was somewhat familiar, he guessed that the person should be Wind and Fire.
Strictly speaking, Gao Zhengyang had not spoken to Wind and Fire. He had only heard his voice from afar. Moreover, the voices of Wolf people were very rough. Their voices were also more backward, which was obviously different from the voices of humans.
Gao Zhengyang did not sympathize with Wind and Fire. Working with Wolf people was like asking a tiger for its skin. This was his own fault, and he could not blame anyone else.
The conflict between the Brute Race and the Human Race was not just empty words. High-ranking barbarians like the Crane Tribe and the White Ape Tribe were still alright. Although they were very proud, they usually restrained themselves and would not easily clash with the human race.
However, low-level barbarians like the Wolf people were more savage and savage by nature. They were not much different from beasts in other aspects, except that they were smarter than beasts.
Especially the Wolf people. Their innate wolfish nature made them hostile to all other races. In their eyes, the human race was a kind of food.
This way of thinking of the Wolf people had been passed down for thousands of years. It was already deeply rooted and could not be changed.
However, no matter how hostile the Wolf people were to the humankind, they didn't dare to act rashly in the Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range.
The Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range was sandwiched between the Yue Country and the Shan Country. Because of the countless strong beasts in the mountain range, the two countries could not really control it.
Therefore, the Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range became the border and buffer zone between the two countries.
The Golden Wolf people could dominate the Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range, but they could not do so outside the mountain range.
Although the two countries did not care about the human tribes in the mountain range, if the Brute Race invaded, the situation would be completely different.
This balance seemed fragile, but no one dared to break it.
Of course, if the Golden Wolf people sent troops to destroy the Tielin Sect and then left immediately. They would not be held accountable for such a small matter.
After all, the death of thousands of people was a small matter.
The Green Wolf Tribe's attack on the Tielin Sect last year could be seen as a test by the Wolf people.
However, the Green Wolf Tribe was defeated too quickly, so the Howling Moon Valley did not have any interest in continuing.
It was not until Wind and Fire appeared and encouraged Wanyan Hao that so many things happened.
Gao Zhengyang did not know much about the situation in the Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range. This was all analyzed by Yue Qingxue for him.
In the Eastern Wasteland Mountain Range, only Yue Qingxue could stand at the height of the two countries and analyze the essence of the matter from top to bottom.
From a strategic point of view, the Wolf people needed to survive, so they would eventually have to expand their territory. The conflict between the Wolf people and the human tribes could not be resolved.
The conflict between the two sides would happen sooner or later. The legend of the Divine Soldier was just a prelude, which pushed the conflict between the two sides to erupt earlier.
Gao Zhengyang did not care about the Golden Wolf people's intentions. His thinking was very simple. The Golden Wolf people were a great threat to him, so he had to eliminate the danger ahead of time.
There were too many Wolf people in the Howling Moon Valley. If he gathered tens of thousands of soldiers to besiege the Tielin Sect, he could at most escape by himself. He was afraid that he would not even be able to take Yue Qingxue with him.
There were a hundred thousand Wolf people in the Howling Moon Valley. Naturally, it was impossible to kill them all. But as long as he killed a few leaders of the Golden Wolf people, the problem could be solved.
With the Golden Wolf people's high pressure on the other low-level Wolf people, if they lost the leadership of the strong, the other Wolf people would definitely rise up and resist.
And this kind of power struggle would inevitably cause the Howling Moon Valley to fall into internal strife. How would they have the spare energy to care about him?
In his previous life, Gao Zhengyang had carried out the decapitation tactic many times. He was also very familiar with it.
Gao Zhengyang closed his eyes and lay on a tree branch, chewing on the bacon jerky in his mouth. The rough, bitter, and salty smell of the meat slowly spread, from the taste buds to the stomach, temporarily satisfied.
This jerky was made from the meat of a fourth-rank demon bear, which was ten times tougher than old cowhide. In other words, it was chewed into pieces by Gao Zhengyang. To others, this jerky was no different from a stone.
Gao Zhengyang could go without food for a few days, but at this time, he needed to replenish his energy as much as possible.
There was still a lot of work to do at night, so he had to adjust his condition as much as possible.
When he opened his eyes again, the sky was completely dark, and there was a hazy drizzle floating in the sky.
The night sky was shrouded in dark clouds, and it was as dark as thick ink.
"God is helping me."
Gao Zhengyang smiled. The dense drizzle not only blocked his vision, but it also covered his smell.
Although the Wolf people claimed to have night vision, that was only when compared to humans. In fact, under such dim conditions, the vision of the Wolf people would also be greatly affected.
When Gao Zhengyang's liquid titanium alloy was integrated into his eyes, not only did it form a protective layer on the surface of the eyeball, but it also changed the state of the eye from the physical structure.
The liquid titanium alloy gave Gao Zhengyang the ability to see in the dark.
Simply put, it was like liquid alloy turned into night vision goggles. Of course, in reality, it was a hundred times more complicated.
For Gao Zhengyang, there was no difference between a dark environment and a bright environment. Everything around him was so clear in his titanium alloy eyes.
Sliding down from the tree, Gao Zhengyang quickly walked out of the pine forest. His night vision was of great use at this time.
When Gao Zhengyang walked past the wolf's den, he deliberately took a look. It was filled with broken bones and flesh, and the scene was extremely bloody.
However, Gao Zhengyang saw a large piece of torn black cloth. Although it was a little far and dark, he could still clearly see the details of the cloth.
From the material of the cloth, it should be something from the Feng Family of the Storm Division. He was almost certain that it was the Wind Fire who had been thrown down to be fed to the wolves.
Gao Zhengyang shook his head. He did not sympathize with the Wind Fire, but he could not stand the cruelty of the Wolf people.
This had nothing to do with right or wrong, good or evil, but it was out of the standpoint of the human race and their hatred towards the alien races.
The night was dark, and it was drizzling.
On the high walls of the Howling Moon Fortress, the Wolf people soldiers were still dutifully patrolling back and forth.
Gao Zhengyang stood below the walls and listened quietly for a while. Through the subtle footsteps, he knew the patrol pattern of the other party.
He tightened the straps of his tunic and tidied up the fine linen warrior suit. The style of this warrior suit was very rough and ugly. The only good thing about it was that the sleeves and trouser legs were very tight, and it was very nimble after being tied up.
After tidying up, Gao Zhengyang leaped up like a cat. He placed his palm lightly on the rough crevice of the wall and used the force to rise a few feet.
With his current strength, he could easily pull his body up with a hook of his little finger. If he wanted to, Gao Zhengyang could even use the grip of his feet to walk forward.
At Gao Zhengyang's current level, no wall could stop him.
With a few leaps, he silently reached the top of the wall. Four Wolf people soldiers happened to pass in front of him.
The Wolf people patrolling in thick straw raincoats had their eyes and ears greatly restricted. Moreover, their backs were facing each other, so how could they discover anything unusual?
Gao Zhengyang flipped over them and slid down from the other side of the wall. The wolf people did not notice the entire process.
When he was on the wall, Gao Zhengyang still had the time to size up the layout of the place.
The layout of Howling Moon Fortress was simple. There were rows of houses in the front and back, and a small training field in the middle.
There was a three-story stone building in the middle. In Gao Zhengyang's eyes, other than being tall and big, the stone building was crude and clumsy. It was extremely ugly.
Obviously, this was the main building. He just had to go there to find the person.
Gao Zhengyang descended the wall and walked directly to the main building.
The continuous rain fell on his body, cool and moist. Gao Zhengyang's fine linen clothes were soon soaked through by the rain.
There were no lights in the surrounding buildings, but he could occasionally hear the sounds of people.
Gao Zhengyang looked like he was taking a stroll in his own backyard. He walked unhurriedly, his steps calm and relaxed.
Occasionally, he would encounter patrolling soldiers. Gao Zhengyang would hide in the shadows under the houses and watch a group of soldiers walk past him.
When he was closest to them, they almost brushed past his shoulder.
However, to the Wolf people soldiers, Gao Zhengyang was like a ghost. They could not see or sense him.
Gao Zhengyang quite liked this feeling. It was neither light nor heavy, neither fast nor slow. Everything was under control.
When he reached the main building, Gao Zhengyang saw a plaque hanging on the door. The words "Howling Moon Mansion" were written on it.
Although the handwriting was a little ugly, it was full of strength and had a fierce and ostentatious aura.
It was only when Gao Zhengyang walked up the steps to the main building's door that the two guards under the eaves realized something was wrong.
They could not see clearly who it was. They could only see a blurry figure standing there.
One of the guards wanted to ask, but Gao Zhengyang had already slammed his palm on the man's chest.
The Great Tablet Smashing Hand of the Eight Trigrams was originally the most ferocious palm technique. Hence, it was known as the Tablet Smashing Hand.
However, when Gao Zhengyang attacked, he restrained his ferocious power. With a single palm strike, the guard's chest armor immediately caved in. His sternum and heart were crushed into a pile of mud by the gentle force. This Wolf people guard died on the spot.
At this moment, the other guard turned around. Gao Zhengyang repeated the same method and killed him with another palm strike.
Just like that, the two guards were silently disposed of by Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang gently pushed the door open and saw a group of Wolf people drinking around a table in the brightly lit hall.
"Hello everyone …" Gao Zhengyang greeted politely.
