Old Dog was currently clutching desperately at the rope noose around his neck.

He was struggling with all his might to gasp for a single breath.

He never could have imagined that this scene would happen to him.

He had only felt something suddenly loop around his neck.

He barely managed to utter an "Eh?" before he was caught.

Who had attacked him?

Fang Xiao?

Had Fang Xiao attacked him from behind?

But his back was facing the coastline!

How had Fang Xiao gotten over there?

The entire land area was filled with his dogs!

Could he have secretly swam over from far away?

No, no, no, he didn't believe Fang Xiao could be that good a swimmer!!

Especially how had this thing managed to loop around his neck?

Therefore, he wanted to look back to see who had done this, but right now he couldn't look back at all - just staying alive was difficult enough!!!

He couldn't see, but the dogs around him could easily see.

Following the long rope connected to the noose, in their field of vision appeared a man covered in wet mud, gritting his teeth and desperately pulling the rope with both hands, trying to drag Old Dog down.

This man, in the eyes of these dogs, seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.

Like a ghost.

Old Dog's greatest reliance was the dogs he raised.

When these dogs saw Old Dog had been caught,

Some of them immediately went forward, biting onto Old Dog's pant legs and clothing corners with their mouths.

Beginning a tug-of-war with Fang Xiao.

Another group rushed to the rope in front of Old Dog's noose, wanting to bite through the rope.

But Fang Xiao had likely anticipated this point long ago.

So his rope was actually several ropes combined into one, extremely thick - even with these dogs frantically biting at it, they couldn't break it open quickly.

Then, another group found a place to jump off the pier.

Reaching the coastline, they charged directly at Fang Xiao himself.

All of Old Dog's dog pack was busy trying to save their master.

Only one dog was sneaking around, unclear what it planned to do.

This Cherry Blossom Country Wolf Blue, while all the other dogs were busy saving their master,

Pretended to move from Fang Xiao's side, secretly creeping up near Old Dog's head.

So this was the dog that had long discovered Fang Xiao's suspicious movements but hadn't alerted Old Dog!!!

Old Dog at this moment was being strangled extremely painfully, especially since his dogs were playing tug-of-war with that pulling force.

His neck was suffering even more.

And at this moment, Old Dog's bulging, strangled eyes suddenly saw that traitorous bastard, that backstabber Cherry Blossom Country Wolf Blue, standing right beside his head.

Instantly, seeing this dog, he felt terrible all over.

This dog, in terms of combat ability, was mid-level among the dogs he raised.

And normally, he would never stay alone with it.

He always had other dogs surrounding him.

If this bastard had any bad intentions,

If it threatened him, the other dogs would be enough to deal with it and protect their master.

But now, in this situation...

Old Dog grew anxious, mumbling and trying to say something, wanting the other dogs around him to pay attention to this bastard.

But the other dogs were all busy loyally saving their master at this moment.

How could they understand Old Dog's current thoughts and concerns?

This bastard was indeed clever - even in such a sudden situation, when it clearly had a perfect opportunity to strike, it carefully observed first.

Only when it was certain it could deliver a fatal blow,

It suddenly took an extremely vicious bite at Old Dog's neck right beside it.

This bite contained all the humiliation and endurance this Cherry Blossom Country Wolf Blue had suffered over many years.

Naturally, the bite was fierce, and Old Dog's neck was a vulnerable spot.

So with this one bite, instantly, blood sprayed everywhere, flesh became mangled.

Old Dog's Adam's apple was bitten off by this bastard and swallowed into its stomach.

And after taking this bite,

This Cherry Blossom Country Wolf Blue directly ran away.

Without any hesitation.

Fang Xiao over there had originally been playing tug-of-war with a group of dogs. When he saw another dozen or so dogs charging toward him,

He had already released the rope, preparing to jump into the sea and escape.

He had already been thinking in his heart that this attempt had failed.

But then, what was happening on the pier?

Was he seeing correctly?

A dog had suddenly attacked Old Dog?

And there was a splash of red?

But Fang Xiao couldn't concern himself with this anymore.

He directly jumped into the sea and fled.

The dozen or so dogs that had been preparing to chase Fang Xiao into the sea suddenly heard chaotic barking from the pier area. They stopped their pursuit, all turning back to look.

They seemed to understand something from the barks.

All these dogs returned, gathering around Old Dog together with the other dogs.

Old Dog at this moment, though still wearing the rope noose around his neck,

Without the external pulling force, the noose was no longer fatal.

But the continuously gushing blood from his neck and the destroyed neck tissue indicated his life force was gradually fading.

If someone had called emergency services for him at this moment and he received treatment, he might have survived.

But unfortunately, only dogs surrounded him now, and they couldn't use phones.

These dogs saw their master - Old Dog - in this state, and they all grew very anxious.

So anxious they barked frantically nearby, but it was useless.

Old Dog's current condition prevented him from speaking - his throat and mouth were full of blood, choking him nearly to suffocation.

No matter what, he never imagined he wouldn't die by human hands, but instead by a dog's bite.

Especially since he came from generations of dog handlers.

This was truly the ultimate irony.

Old Dog was extremely unwilling.

Unwilling, he closed his eyes.

Closest to Old Dog were the six dog kings he had selected and established.

When the dog kings discovered Old Dog had died, they all howled sorrowfully toward the sky.

Their howls prompted the other dogs to join, all howling toward the sky together.

These howls formed a melody, as if giving Old Dog his final send-off.

After the melody resounded for several minutes,

These six dog kings opened their large mouths, aimed at Old Dog's corpse.

They began feasting heartily.

After they had enjoyed their fill, they allowed the other dogs to come.

Soon, these dogs' mouths were stained with plenty of red blood.

In less than half an hour,

Old Dog's corpse seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Aside from the bloodstains remaining on the ground, not even bones were left.

And after finishing Old Dog's corpse,

The six dog kings howled toward the sky.

Leading the dog pack, they charged off in one direction.

Not long after these dogs left,

A beautiful figure appeared beside the bloodstains where Old Dog had died.

This beautiful figure possessed a lovely mixed-race face.

He blinked those large eyes with long eyelashes.

Staring at the bloodstains on the ground, then staring at the distant dog pack.

His small mouth murmured: "Even more uncontrollable events are about to happen."

...

All the dogs Old Dog had raised were trained into ferocious-tempered fighting dogs.

Each one could be called the most vicious among vicious dogs.

And they were bloodthirsty, possessing extremely strong aggression toward humans.

Normally, aside from their master Old Dog who could control them, no one else could.

Therefore, after Old Dog's death, though these dogs were extremely sorrowful,

They also gained freedom.

No one could control them anymore - from now on, they could do whatever they wanted.
