Chapter 644: Chapter 651: Is this a mother’s? (Part 1)
The shadowy figure couldn’t be identified, resembling a wolf yet appearing more slender, covering in snow-white as if fully enrobed in white fur. When Yang Zhen restrained it, it wailed continuously, but couldn’t break free.
Obviously, it had exhausted all its True Essence.
With its True Essence depleted, it was now at Yang Zhen’s mercy, who instantaneously turned into a strong man wrangling a horse, spinning it around and causing a sensation.
A crowd of people stared in amazement as Yang Zhen swung his rope, tying it in circles around that figure.
The voice came from Han Yan’er. Otherwise, Yang Zhen would not have cared about this mess. In the land of the Nine Dragon Que Flower, there were no ordinary beings. Who knew what dangers this ghostly thing posed?
Seeing Yang Zhen capture that beast, Han Yan’er’s face immediately lit up with joy. It was unclear whether it was because of the captured prey, or because she had seen Yang Zhen. Her face radiated an intense glow of happiness.
As she approached Yang Zhen, the smile had already faded from Han Yan’er’s face. She frowned at Yang Zhen and said, “You’re here?”
“Er, well, I am here!”
A puzzled Yang Zhen looked at the worn-out Han Yan’er and asked, “Why are you here, and where’s your poultry?”
Caught off guard, Han Yan’er shook her head: “I don’t know. Once I entered, I ended up in this place. Yang Zhen, where is this and why is there no Heaven and Earth Qi?”
Yang Zhen exchanged glances with Jian Cat. As he guessed, Han Yan’er had been swept into the land of the Nine Dragon Que Flower before anyone else, bypassing even the Heavenly Mechanism Bridge.
Death Shadow, his face full of shock, stared at Han Yan’er and, with total astonishment, asked: “Impressive young maiden, Yang Xiaozi, where did you find such gifted young women?”
“So many?” Han Yan’er was taken aback, and the surrounding air grew slightly heavier.
Yang Zhen waved his hand: “Don’t listen to this doddering fool. There are only two of you. Where are ‘so many’?”
The air temperature around them immediately rose. Death Shadow, looking completely baffled, turned his head to Gong Sanhe, “Are not two considered many?”
Gong Sanhe smirked and said, “What do you know, old geezer? Using Jian Cat’s words, you’re just an old… lone… lone…”
“Single dog!” Death Shadow interjected. When it came to understanding such odd terms, his ability to adapt was much stronger than Gong Sanhe’s. However, after reminding Gong Sanhe, Death Shadow suddenly realized who the intended target of the term was. He stared at Gong Sanhe and snapped, “Who are you calling a single dog, you old chap? As if you have a partner.”
Gong Sanhe burst into laughter and said, “I never said that!”
Yang Zhen ignored the two old fools and turned to Han Yan’er, “Why have you been staying here all this while, why not go out?”
Hua Youyue looked at Han Yan’er with curiosity. She offered Han Yan’er some food to replenish her True Essence and asked, “Are you hurt?”
Eating to her heart’s content, Han Yan’er shook her head: “I’m not hurt, but I can’t get out. It seems like I’m surrounded by a powerful illusionary formation – no matter how I navigate around, I end up back at the starting point!”
Death Shadow roared with laughter and said, “Young lady, when it comes to Earth Master Skills, this old man here may fall short of Yang Zhen, but he’s amongst one of the more skilled ones. With Yang Zhen and him around, rest assured. You’ll definitely get out. I’m Death Shadow. As for his name, well, it’s not important,” giving Gong Sanhe a mischievous sideways glance.
Gong Sanhe turned sharply at the remark, giving Death Shadow a stern look, and said, “Mind your words, old man! Who’s considering you a mute if you don’t talk? Right, Miss Han? My name is Gong Sanhe, the third elder of Ancient Life Sect. Pardon my rudeness, but do you happen to be a master of Star Arts?”
At this, Death Shadow’s eyes bulged, his mouth agape, pointing at Han Yan’er but said nothing.
Han Yan’er glanced at Yang Zhen, and seeing him nod, she addressed Gong Sanhe: “You are correct, elder. I do possess the Star Art Chapter in my being!”
“What!”
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow exchanged glances, both finding incredulous expressions in each other’s eyes.
Death Shadow was a bit awkward, both having heard of the Star Arts Chapter of the Heavenly Book. In terms of the Earth Master Skill, Han Yan’er was not inferior to Gong Sanhe at all.
Yang Zhen curled his lips. These two old geezers lacked worldly experience. If they knew that he not only had the Xuanli Chapter of the Heavenly Book, but also the Ksitigarbha Chapter, what kind of expression would they have?
“Unbelievable, it’s truly unbelievable!” Gong Sanhe muttered to himself: “I originally thought that once the Sacred Clan came out, they could control this Heaven and Earth. It seems I was horribly wrong!”
Death Shadow was taken aback and then sighed: “Heaven and Earth are changing. Nowadays, there are many exceptionally talented young people. When we were young, Heaven and Earth belonged to the powerful. But now, this Heaven and Earth… belongs to the young.”
Gong Sanhe laughed heartily and remarked, “It’s just as it should be, this is what makes the world more fascinating. Old fellow, you might feel you are getting on in years, but I’m quite comforted. Compared to those powerful beings who astonish both the past and present, what can our age amount to?”
Death Shadow nodded and was about to speak when he suddenly exclaimed, “Right, boy, the one you’ve got caged there, let’s see it. What is it exactly?”
Yang Zhen turned to look at Han Yan’er.
Han Yan’er’s complexion changed, she frowned and said, “I was just picking some fruit to eat, this creature suddenly darted out and stole all my fruit. It was too fast, my True Essence was almost depleted, I couldn’t catch up.”
After Yang Zhen and the others arrived here, they hardly used any True Essence. The pen he used for flipping pages did not fear this creature would escape, so he casually caught it and was immediately taken aback.
It was a creature similar to a snow fox, the same shade of white all over. Under Yang Zhen’s flick, it seems dazed, and shrunk down to the size of a palm. It looked pitifully at everyone, appearing somewhat scared and a little embarrassed.
Han Yan’er grabbed the little fox back and glared at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen was wronged, and soon frowned, pointing at the little fox and asked, “Fuck, is it a female?”
The infamous cat chuckled from the side until Yang Zhen slapped it!
Han Yan’er seemed to like this little creature quite a lot. She took a piece of fruit from her arms and fed it to the little fox.
The little fox ate with utmost relish, and affectionately rubbed itself against Han Yan’er.
Just then, Han Yan’er hesitated for a moment before telling Yang Zhen, “This snow fox seems to be different. It’s very clever, it even understands what we’re saying. I just don’t know why it has been avoiding contact with me.”
Upon hearing this, everyone present was startled, and the infamous cat exclaimed. It sniffed the little fox and said, “Fuck, there’s trouble.”
“What’s wrong?” Yang Zhen was stunned, he had never before seen the cat show such an expression, as if the sky was about to fall.
With a serious face, the infamous cat stared at the little fox. It didn’t answer Yang Zhen’s question, but started to converse with the little fox in a strange language.
Yang Zhen’s eyes widened in surprise, if he wasn’t mistaken, that should be beast language.
Bullshit, of course it is beast language. Any language that humans can’t understand would be beast language. But the little fox was smart enough to understand it?
Thinking about this, Yang Zhen felt a chill in his heart as he thought of a certain existence!
The Demonic Race!
