Chapter 829 A Warning

“Why did you come after me?” Renee complained.

Colin stammered through his explanation, “I-I was worried that the Coopers would bully you, so I chased

after you with some reinforcements. Plus, this island is dangerous. I wanted to protect you myself.”

Renee replied curtly, “I don’t need your protection. Jared, Josephine, and Lizbeth are more than enough.

It’s not like you can win anyone with your current abilities anyway.”

Her scathing reply put Colin in an awkward position. Eventually, he muttered, “We have many skilled

fighters in our family. I didn’t bring them all along on this trip. Don’t write me off because of my weak

skills. I’m willing to risk my life to protect you.”

His bold vow stunned Renee into silence. The young woman had never received such a heartfelt

confession in her lifetime.

Noticing that her friend was at a loss for words after Colin’s curveball of a confession, Josephine stepped

forward and tugged on Renee’s arm. She pulled Renee behind her and barked at Colin, “Don’t even

think about fooling Renee. Rich playboys like you are only good for your silver tongues.”

Josephine then dragged Renee along as she turned and left. Lizbeth pointed a warning finger at Colin

and hissed, “Don’t you dare follow us.”

The three ladies continued following Jared while Colin and his group trailed them from some distance.

His stalking irked Josephine and Lizbeth to no end.

Jared tried to pacify them by saying, “Let them follow us. Just ignore him.”

Jared had long dismissed Colin’s presence as a threat despite his playboy behavior. In any case, the

men Colin had brought with him were weak fighters, and if push came to shove, Jared knew he could

defeat them easily.

They had been walking some time when a menacing howl pierced the silence.

The howl was so loud that the ground vibrated, causing a flurry of snow to fall from the trees.

Jared froze in surprise and sped in the direction of the howl, followed closely by Josephine and the

others.

Colin jumped in surprise when he heard the howl. However, upon seeing Jared and his group heading

toward the source of the howl, Colin plucked up his courage and led his men in pursuit.

Jared saw a massive white wolf after they had walked a short distance. The wolf had a snowy, white coat

and was as big as an ox. Its eyes glowed eerily, and its hair bristled with hostility, looking like sharp, iron

spikes.

A man dressed in a suit stood before the wolf. He glared at the beast, his body poised to strike at any

moment.

The Cooper brothers were observing the man and the wolf from the side. Everyone else soon joined the

fray, including Kenneth and Kristoff.

This was the first beast everyone had encountered since setting foot on the island. It looked unusually

large, a consequence of absorbing the island’s spiritual energy over the years. It was likely to be

extremely intelligent as well.

The suit-clad man turned around slightly and noticed his spectators. He could not help but frown.

He had gone two rounds with the white wolf before this. Though he had not successfully killed the beast,

he had the upper hand, and victory was merely a matter of time. Then, he would be able to kill the wolf

and obtain its beast core.

Now that he had an audience, however, the suited man knew that it would be more difficult to escape

with the beast core.

Jared stared at the humongous wolf and exclaimed in awe, “I never imagined there would be such a

fierce white wolf in such a cold place. We might encounter more frightful creatures on our journey.”

Jared did not know if he would find the rumored Ice Dragon and Flame Dragon on this island or if he

even could defeat them and obtain the draconic essence. If a white wolf was already this strong, the two

dragons were undoubtedly more powerful. The thought sent chills down Jared’s spine.
