Shi Shi walked out of the pavilion and saw that Wutian was already waiting for her. The little celestial was standing at the side, hugging a black bundle that was several times larger than its body. Its eyes kept rolling around, revealing its vigilance.
Inside the bag was essence, its treasure. It was always on guard to prevent Wutian from stealing it.
"Shi Shi, let's go!" Wutian's voice was gentle. He took the bag from her hands and walked towards the cliff.
"Roar …"
At the cliff, tens of thousands of beasts had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the group coming, they all roared towards the sky as if they were bidding farewell. There was a lion as big as a mountain, a tiger as red as blood, and a giant snake that was ten zhang long. They were vicious and cruel, but the emotion in their eyes was reluctance!
"Little lion, little tiger, little worm, and all my obedient babies, Shi Shi is leaving. You have to protect this place well." The little girl stroked the several vicious beasts and said with tears in her eyes.
"Wu wu"
In the eyes of outsiders, these were vicious beasts. However, at this moment, they lowered their heads and rubbed against Shi Shi's body. The giant snake spat out its several meter long tongue and bound her little hand. It was as if it was urging her to stay and not leave.
"Little worm, you have to be good. Don't bully everyone. Shi Shi will come back to see you."
This was a five-colored viper. Its entire body was covered with palm-sized scales. It was gorgeous and dazzling, as if it was wearing a colorful robe. It was the emperor of this place, the ruler of all the beasts in this pure land.
"Hiss …" It nodded like an obedient baby. Then, it hissed towards the sky. Its voice was extremely loud, as if the mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting. It resounded through the clouds.
"Chirp!"
A large bird swooped down. When it spread its wings, it was three zhang long. Its feathers were as black as silk and flowed with brilliance. It stopped at the cliff and gently touched the little girl's face with its sharp beak, as if it was protecting a child. It was very gentle.
The five-colored viper's long tongue rolled around and bound the little girl's body. It placed her on the back of the large bird. Then, it looked towards Wutian. Its bell-like eyes flickered with cold light. The snake's tongue flickered incessantly. Its meaning was: "Take good care of Shi Shi. If she is harmed, I will not let you off."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of her." Wutian solemnly promised.
"Ao Ao!" Xiao Yi leapt onto the large bird and softly cried towards the ten thousand beasts. This could be considered as saying goodbye. She was born here, so she was very familiar with these beasts. They were like a family. Now that they were parting, she felt a bit sad.
"Thank you for taking care of Shishi all these years. We'll meet again if fate wills it." Wutian cupped his hands and said. Then, he grabbed the little fellow and jumped onto the back of the big bird.
The large bird cried out and flapped its wings. Violent winds rose as it rushed into the sky like a meteor, sweeping towards the horizon.
"Roar!!!"
Behind him, tens of thousands of beasts roared in unison, shaking the mountains and rivers. They were sending him off, their hearts filled with reluctance. They had watched Shi Shi grow up since she was young, and they had long treated her as their own child.
"Shishi, you have many good friends." Wutian smiled. Although they were ferocious beasts, they also had feelings. They were much better than some sanctimonious humans.
"When Daddy wasn't here, they were the ones who played with me. I couldn't bear to leave them, but I also wanted to go outside and take a look." The little girl was crying. Her little face was bright red, and she looked extremely cute.
Wutian comforted her, "Don't cry. In the future, I'll accompany you back to see them often."
"En. Big brother, tell me what the outside world is like, okay?" The little girl wiped away her tears and had a curious look on her face.
The little girl was still young. Her emotions came and went quickly.
Wutian nodded. Sitting on the back of the large bird, he told her many things. The little girl was startled. Her little face was filled with yearning. She was looking forward to it. She wanted to fly out of this desolate forest as soon as possible and see those new things.
In fact, Wutian didn't know much. He had lived in the mountains since he was young and had never left the Dragon Village. However, there were records in the beast skin scroll. In addition, he had been influenced since he was young. He wasn't like the little girl, who had nothing and was as pure as a blank piece of paper.
The speed of the large bird was astonishing. It was several times faster than the flamingo. It left the boundary of the desolate forest in half a day. This was very inconceivable. Later on, Wutian checked the beast skin scroll and found out that this was a Lightning Eagle. Not only was its strength stronger than humans of the same realm, its speed was even faster.
According to Wutian's preliminary calculations, the distance between the Dragon Village and Shi Shi's residence was three thousand miles. He had traveled for close to three months, and this desolate forest was about four thousand miles in radius. This meant that the Lightning Eagle was several hundred times faster than him. It really lived up to its name, as fast as lightning.
One day later, Wutian arrived at the sky above a plain. A small town appeared at the end of the plain. He ordered the Lightning Eagle to land here.
The Lightning Eagle's ferocious aura was overflowing. It frightened the wild beasts on the plain and made them flee in panic. It landed on the ground and waited for the few people to jump off.
"Little Sparkle, you can leave us here. Go back quickly. Little Worm, Little Tiger, and Little Lion are waiting for you. Remember, you have to protect our home well." The little girl stretched out her hand and stroked it as she gently exhorted.
"Chirp!
Chirp! "The Lightning Eagle let out a soft cry and flapped its wings. Its sharp eyes softened. It had already become a spirit and possessed the intelligence of a human. It knew that after this parting, who knows when they would meet again.
"I will remember. I will definitely take good care of myself. You guys do the same." As the little girl said this, her tears fell again. Wutian's heart was complicated. He didn't know if it was right or wrong to bring Shi Shi away this time.
The Lightning Eagle nodded its head and looked at Wutian. It let out a few sharp cries. Its eyes were the same as the Rainbow Viper's, telling him to take good care of the little girl.
"She is my little sister. If anyone wants to harm her, they will have to step over my dead body."
After receiving Wutian's guarantee, the Lightning Eagle's eyes finally softened. Its body trembled and a drop of dark red blood shot out from its chest. It was bright and glistening. It emitted a vicious aura and was extremely frightening.
It screeched at Wutian. The drop of blood floated up and landed in his hand. It didn't disperse and was like a blood diamond, sparkling and translucent.
"Brother, Little Sparkle said that if we are in danger in the future, as long as we swallow this drop of blood, it will be able to sense it. At that time, it will bring Little Chong and Little Tiger to rescue us." Shi Shi explained.
Wutian's heart was moved. Who could be more heartless than a demonic beast? At this moment, in his opinion, demonic beasts were even more affectionate and righteous than humans. He nodded at the Lightning Eagle, indicating that he understood.
"Chirp!" With a sharp cry, the Lightning Eagle spread its wings and rushed into the sky, casting a large shadow. After that, it went back the way it came and quickly disappeared.
"Wow! The grassland is so big. " After watching the Lightning Eagle disappear, the little girl looked around and cheered. She jumped around on the grassland like a porcelain doll, lively and cute.
"Yi, that little wolf is so cute."
"Little wolf!" Wutian was speechless. It was clearly a Howling Firmament Wolf. Its body was huge, at least two meters tall. Its eyes were blood red and it emitted a vicious aura. This savage demonic beast, in the eyes of the little girl, was actually a little wolf. She was probably the first person to call it cute.
"Awoo …" The Howling Firmament Wolf bared its teeth. It was obvious that it was extremely dissatisfied with being called a little wolf. It revealed a vicious expression, but when it saw Little Tian on the little girl's shoulder, its pupils suddenly shrank and it ran away with its tail between its legs.
"Whoosh!" The little guy jumped onto its back and lightly patted it with its claws. The Howling Firmament Wolf's body went limp and collapsed on the ground, trembling.
The little guy was very satisfied. It stood up like a human and stepped on its head. Its meaning was, 'You're very obedient, I'll let you go today.'
It was full of arrogance and complacency. It wanted to show off to Xiao Yi, but it found that they had already left. It angrily howled and kicked the pitiful Howling Firmament Wolf before chasing after them.
Little Tian's move had a certain degree of deterrence. On the way to the entrance of the town, not a single demonic beast attacked.
"Big brother, there's so many people here!" Shi Shi bounced around and giggled like a little fairy. She was extraordinarily lively and attracted a lot of attention.
Ironstone Town was one of the few large towns in the Scarlet Sun Mountain Range. There were many people coming and going, but most of them were hunters. They came from villages in various corners of the mountain range and sold beast hides, beast blood, and other materials.
Ironstone Town was under the jurisdiction of the Yan Sect. It had a population of over ten thousand and a developed economy. With the support of the large sect's deep financial resources, hunters could be sold for a good price here. Although the journey was full of danger and people would occasionally die in the stomach of vicious beasts, the profits were considerable. One trip was enough for a few dozen people to live in a village for a year, so it was worth it.
"Yi, that seems to be a Flying Fox? Looks like it hasn't reached adulthood yet and can't fly. However, I heard that its healing ability is quite good. Whose child is that little girl? She actually has a mutated beast that's almost extinct as a spirit pet. I'm so envious. "
The gazes of the passersby were all attracted by the Flying Fox. The little fellow was too handsome. Its snow-white fur was like jade, smooth and clean. Its eyes were dark and lively. It was very difficult not to notice it.
"Brother, I advise you not to look too much. I heard that the Yan Sect will be recruiting disciples in a month or so. They might be participants in the exam. Who knows, they might even be disciples of some large family. Don't provoke them … Oh shit, are my eyes playing tricks on me? That youth's spirit pet is actually a Demon Frog. "
The hunter who was advising him almost tripped and fell to the ground.
"It's true. He actually found a Demon Frog as his spirit pet. This is the first time I've seen something like this."
Many strange gazes were cast at the little fellow on Wutian's shoulder. They were all somewhat incredulous. The little fellow was naturally eccentric. When had it ever been humiliated like this? It was about to explode.
Wutian grabbed it and advised, "It doesn't matter what others think. As long as Shi Shi and I like you and know how great you are, it's fine. You don't have to care about what others think."
The little fellow whimpered. It was extremely unhappy, but it let it go.
"Brother, why would they say that about the little fellow? They're too much." The little girl was indignant and spoke up for the little fellow.
The little fellow's head was like pounding garlic. It forced out two drops of frog tears and acted pitiful.
"Little fellow, don't be sad. Shi Shi has never hated you. They have eyes but can't see. Don't be so calculative. Don't hurt yourself." The little girl comforted.
The little fellow's eyes were filled with tears. It was very touched. No one had ever cared about it so much. It jumped onto Shi Shi's shoulder and stared angrily at Wutian. It waved its claws, meaning, "Bye bye. I'll be with Shi Shi from now on."
"Little sister, is this Flying Fox your spirit pet?"
At this time, a girl in red walked over. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was quite pretty and dressed very beautifully. Looking at her clothes, she should be from a large family.
"Sister, you're so beautiful." Shi Shi opened her eyes wide and said.
"Is that so? Little sister, your mouth is so sweet. " The gorgeous girl gently pinched the little girl's cheek and said with a smile, "Little sister, can you sell this spirit pet to sister? No matter how much Profound Qi it costs, it's fine."
"Sister, Xiao Yi is my friend. It's not a spirit pet. I won't sell it." Shi Shi squatted down and stroked the Flying Fox very intimately.
"Xiao Yi, this name is very nice." The more the gorgeous girl looked, the more she liked it. "Little sister, do you think the Profound Qi is not enough? Then I'll use treasures to exchange for it. This is an essence. It's enough to exchange for ten thousand Profound Qi."
"Sister, I said I won't sell it." Shi Shi's eyebrow wrinkled.
"Little sister, don't be so stubborn. How about I add three more essences?" The girl still refused to give up.
Wutian frowned and blocked in front of the little girl. He said, "Shi Shi said she won't sell it. Didn't you hear her?"
The gorgeous girl raised her head and said with a cold face, "Who are you?"
"I'm her brother. Xiao Yi is our friend. I won't sell it. You can pay for it!" Wutian said lightly.
The gorgeous girl smiled coldly. "Little brother, I'm afraid it's not up to you. I want this Flying Fox. You'd better be obedient and name a price. Otherwise, you won't get anything later. You might even hurt this cute little sister a little."
"Are you threatening me?"
Wutian's face darkened. His eyes were shining like a beast's as he stared at the girl.
