Chapter 47: Strange Event in the Cloudy Mist Forest
Day 90th, the month of the earth, aka spring.
Cloudy Mist Forest.
". . . Yueyue. Are we lost?" Xiao Wu asked Mingyue absent-mindedly as it was not the first question she asked.
"No, of course not. We are on the right way." Mingyue answered with a blank expression.
[Currently, we are in the middle of Cloudy Mist Forest. This place was not exactly the same as its name. Cloudy and misty. This forest is clearly an abundant place with rarely people come in. Lush green everywhere around me. The sun in the afternoon was so bright and starry sky in the night was so beautiful.] Mingyue narrated while she enjoyed the scenery from above Xiao Wu.
". . . Yueyue, are we lost?" Xiao Wu asked the same question over and over.
"Don't worry, we are not in hurry. We are enjoying this view." Mingyue tried to reassure Xiao Wu again.
". . . But. . ."
"How about you show the result of your cultivation, Xiao Wu?" Mingyue was trying so hard to divert Xiao Wu's attention about getting lost.
Yes, they are lost in the middle of the forest.
It has been more than ten days since Mingyue came to the Cloudy Mist Forest. At first, she thought that this place was a good place to hide. Yes, it is a good place, before she realized that she got lost.
Not only that, Mingyue's plan to pile more fighting experience for Xiao Jing was ended in failure. Even Mingyue couldn't found any strayed Fierce Beast anymore since that three Fierce Beast that Xiao Jing killed. Fortunately, the forest was abundant with fruits. Mingyue didn't need to think about food anymore, but Xiao Wu was getting nervous.
". . . Yueyue, I am scared." Xiao Wu said timidly.
[It was not like this is her fault. This forest is really a 'Bewitching Forest'. Let's give a little hope for Xiao Wu.] Mingyue sighed in her mind.
"It's not hard if you want to get out of this forest, Xiao Wu." Mingyue baited Xiao Wu.
"Really? You are not lying, right?" Xiao Wu clearly bit this bait. Mingyue clearly felt bad for tricking a little kid like Xiao Wu.
"Un. Do you remember the place where the sun rises?"
"Un, I remember. Why the sun?" Xiao Wu was clearly puzzled by the connection between the sun and the way out of the forest.
"Go straight to that place. It was the exit."
". . . Really?" Xiao Wu felt that Mingyue was trying to trick her.
". . . Why don't you just try it?" Mingyue smiled at Xiao Wu.
". . . " In the end, Xiao Wu could only try to go to the direction of the rising sun.
…
[Hm?] While Mingyue was dozing off, she felt something wrong with her surroundings. She immediately straightened her body and focused her gaze.
"What's wrong, Yueyue?" Xiao Wu, who was walking toward the sunrise, was surprised by Mingyue's sudden move.
Mingyue closed her eyes and then sniffed around. She opened her eyes again and smiled brightly.
"I think we have found our ticket to get out of this rotten forest." Mingyue smiled after finding out something wrong around Mingyue and company. There was a disturbance in the spirit around Mingyue and Xiao Wu. The spirit around them was moving to a certain place. This phenomenon was certainly piqued her interest since this is the first time Mingyue saw something like this.
[There are two possibilities I could think. One, a big treasure was about to be born. Well, I am not very sure, but the possibility is not that low. The second was a high tier-Fierce Beast. I never have the chance to see a high-tier Fierce Beast myself. But, if those Fierce Beast could control Elemental, then why those Fierce Beasts couldn't affect spirit in a certain area? Everything was possible.] Mingyue muttered while making observation around her. There was no more hint that she could note.
"Xiao Jing, can you help me to survey this area?" Mingyue called Xiao Jing with telepathy.
". . . What's wrong?" Xiao Jing was clearly confused since Mingyue hasn't explained anything to both of them. After the short explanation, Xiao Jing nodded.
". . . It's better than wandering without aim." Xiao Jing made her comment.
"No, we didn't wander without aim. We are moving to the position of the sunrise. Moving in one straight way would help us to avoid moving in a circle." Mingyue retorted to Xiao Jing, but Xiao Jing clearly didn't care about Mingyue's excuse at all.
". . . Er, Yueyue, didn't you just say that this is our ticket out?" Xiao Wu suddenly cut into the conversation. She turned around her head to look at Mingyue's face.
"Yes, of course. It is our ticket out of our boredom, right?" Mingyue said while wearing a bland smile.
"You trick me again!" Xiao Wu shouted while puffing her cheeks.
Mingyue strokes her neck to console her. "You silly girl, we are not in hurry to leave this place. See, this place is good for your cultivation right? No one around here, no one to disturb you, and we don't have to worry about food supplies. And you can eat all the fruits you want."
Enjoying Mingyue's treatment, Xiao Wu didn't sulk anymore. Most of the time, Xiao Wu would just let Mingyue do what she wanted to do.
After looking around a little, Xiao Jing looked at Mingyue and said, "Don't move recklessly. I will follow the movement of the spirit. Keep alert." After giving her warning, Xiao Jing used Shadow Step to jump between trees.
After jumping a few times, Xiao Jing turned her head and looked at Mingyue, "I will repeat it again. Keep alert, don't make trouble." Xiao Jing had a stern face.
Mingyue coughed. [Damn, who you said was the troublemaker? I have never made any trouble! I never like trouble! But I don't know why trouble loved me!]
And Mingyue's retort was left unanswered.
…
"What have you seen?" Mingyue asked since Xiao Jing had left for some time. But based on the connection between Mingyue and Xiao Jing, Mingyue knew that she was fine.
". . . Gathering of Fierce Beasts." After a long silence, at last, Xiao Jing answered.
[Gathering? Don't tell me that the reason we didn't find any of them before?] Mingyue was surprised by this information.
"Did any of them fight?" Mingyue tried to make sure their situation.
"No, they are moving in one direction."
"Is it because they are the same type Fierce Beast?"
"No, there is a lot of variety of Fierce Beasts here."
". . . And they are going to one place?"
"Yeah."
"Un, let's peek on them." After considering a little, Mingyue made her decision. She was clearly interested in that place.
". . . Can I say no?" Xiao Jing clearly hesitated. With this number of Fierce Beast, she feared that she couldn't protect Mingyue in a bad situation.
Understanding Xiao Jing's way of thinking, Mingyue tried to reassure her. "Don't worry, Xiao Wu and I would wait for you over here. We will definitely hide in the safe place. Don't forget to send me the video recording, okay?"
"Humph, you have thought about it carefully." Xiao Jing was clearly sulking since she was the one in the danger.
"Just get out of that place if you are in danger." Mingyue tried to console Xiao Jing, but Mingyue was laughing mischievously in her heart.
[As long as I can see what is happening over there, I am content as it was only my curiosity that is forcing Xiao Jing. There is nothing to worry about Xiao Jing as she is capable of Shadow Step and Shadow Stealth, she can run away at the danger time.] Mingyue was justifying her act as usual.
". . . Sigh. Just take it as my bad luck."
