Chapter 107 Huangfu Shenglin

Although Hua Qiyue and Yun s.h.i.+mo had taught him swordsmans.h.i.+p and Qi Art, Tianci was still young. It was the first time he had seen such a strange beast and he was feeling a bit frightened.

But the evil beast only stared at him without moving forward.

Tianci blinked his eyes and looked at his surroundings. Many evil beasts were staring at him covetously.

What happened?

Tianci stroked his head. He remembered that he was on the street looking for his mother, when a mysterious man abducted him.

That mysterious man left an aggressive message: if she wants her son, let Hua Qiyue go to the Magic Beasts Forest!

After that, Tianci smelt a faint scent and fainted.

However, after his awakening, he did not discover that mysterious man. Instead, he was surrounded by all sorts of strange, evil beasts.

Tianci's heart started to thump wildly, his mind pivoting swiftly. He was trying to figure out how to deal with so many evil beasts.

He was a young boy. Even though he was very good at Qi Art, he had no way to escape! These evil beasts were probably all very powerful, he supposed?

Although the young fellow was living in the capital, he knew that the Magic Beasts Forest wasn't a place just anyone could enter. Even a Qi Artist below the Dragon Diagram Realm must consider twice before coming here.

Tianci swallowed his saliva, his scalp tingling. If all these evil beasts dashed up together, wouldn't he be left with no bone or body?

The evil beast partially resembling a dog stared at Tianci with gradually calming eyes. It gave a low growl. The surrounding beasts also gave off low growls, as if they had reached a consensus.

Tianci's little heart tensed up even more!

He stretched out his hand and felt around him. There was nothing but dried twigs. No weapons at all! What should he do, what should he do?

Tianci clenched his teeth and stood up, his little body s.h.i.+vering. Slowly, he calmed down.

Mother had taught him to stay calm when facing a problem!

The evil beast growled lowly and took a step forward. So did the other beasts. Unexpectedly, when they stopped, they saw Tianci's body glowing with a halo of light. The halo expanded and with a loud boom, the nearer beasts were thrown out and landed heavily away in an explosion.

The more powerful evil beasts had also crashed against some ancient trees, landing with loud thuds. Those ancient trees also exploded, tearing apart.

Tianci blinked. He couldn't believe his eyes. Did he have some power to defend himself?

The evil beasts roared angrily, all struggling up. Some simply ran away, others remained where they were, staring furiously at Tianci, their tender prey.

Unfortunately, they could only watch and not eat him.

The chief evil beast gave a low roar. The remaining beasts seemed to have received an order and they slowly spread out in an expanding circle. Some left, the others watched from afar.

Only the chief evil beast was left, staring coldly at Tianci with its fiery red pupils.

Tianci heaved a sigh of relief. He could sense a strange Qi flow protecting his body. In this way, he did not need to fear the beasts' attacks.

The red-eyed beast kept silent for a while and finally left.

The surrounding evil beasts all left in the end.

Tianci heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and looked at his surroundings. Eh, there are towering ancient trees everywhere. In which direction should he go?

In the dim forest, he could not tell his directions. He was thoroughly confused.

Suddenly, the heavy footsteps of an evil beast resounded. Tianci stopped and stared warily at the evil beast racing toward him.

Hey...

This time, there was something resembling a luminous pearl in the beast's mouth. Yet the item was far more translucent and glittering than a luminous pearl. It looked gorgeous.

The evil beast emitted a low growl and left the luminous bead in front of Tianci obediently. Then, it gave Tianci a deep stare before turning away to leave.

Tianci widened his eyes, astonished. He could not believe the scene before his eyes.

Was this bead for him?

Tianci naturally felt a wariness toward the evil beast. After all, it had just brought the other beasts here to attack him.

It was a very large bead, its glow able to illuminate the surroundings, making it seemed as bright as day. He no longer needed to worry about stepping on venomous vipers.

Tianci looked around him and found a dried twig. He untangled some vines and wove them into a net, placing the bead in it. Then, he walked slowly forward.

Tianci was now walking purely by instinct.

After 15 minutes, he did not detect any change in the bead. Nor were there any attacks.

Tianci did not get it. Why had that ferocious, evil beast treated him so well?

At this moment, a flurry of footsteps was heard in front. Someone was speaking. "This Magic Beasts Forest is infamous for a reason. We've been here for half a day and have lost 10 men. Your Highness, let's go back. We won't be able to unearth any treasures here."

Another voice said with quiet blandness. "Since you can't find anything here, you need not come along the next time."

"Your Highness... that's not what I mean. Your servant means that we ought to be better prepared for the next time. We have confirmed our map to be accurate, so we will have a more successful trip."

The other voice was mumbling servilely.

"Eh, Your Highness, there's a light in front!" A third voice cried out excitedly.

Tianci remained where he was, his big eyes staring ahead. The flurry of footsteps became more hurried. Soon, a company appeared before his eyes.

They were all resplendently attired. One could tell at a glance that they were wealthy scions. Horse hooves scattered the fallen leaves on the ground with dull thuds.

The company saw that it was a young boy lifting a luminous pearl in his hand, staring at their leader with naive eyes. They were all astonished.

There were innumerable ferocious evil beasts all around this Magic Beasts Forest. Within their company, they had over 30 Qi Artists. They had merely met a few evil beasts and one dozen Qi Artists had been killed.

And this young boy was actually standing there, completely unhurt?

This boy must be quite extraordinary!

The man heading the company was the Eleventh Prince, Huangfu Shenglin, Consort Mei's son.

Today was the day of the hunting contest, but Huangfu Shenglin did not partic.i.p.ate in it. He felt that this kind of contest was very boring and not challenging at all.

When he heard that the Emperor liked Magic Cores of higher beasts, he led a company of some 30 Qi Artists into the Magic Beasts Forest.

Unfortunately, they found nothing and yet had lost 10 Qi Artists among themselves. It badly affected Huangfu Shenglin's pro-active morale.

Yet since they were here, they had to hunt down an evil beast, or they would end up the b.u.t.t of the capital's jokes.

Yet a six or seven-year-old boy had appeared before their eyes. Huangfu Shenglin found this inconceivable.

What shocked him even more was that the boy was carrying a luminous pearl, totally transparent and looking very extraordinary.

"Good heavens, the Evolution Pearl of an extreme evil beast! The Evolution Pearl of a Heaven Dog!"

The more knowledgeable Qi Artists started to yell.

The Heaven Dog was an extreme evil beast from the Magic Beasts Forest. It could be regarded as a leader of the Magic Beasts Forest.

There were six leaders of the forest, every one an extreme evil beast. They divided this large Forest into six main territories.

One of the territories was headed by Heaven Dog.

The Evolution Pearl of the Heaven Dog was a Magic Core's upgrade. Most Qi Artists, after ingesting an Evolution Pearl, could rapidly promote to the next level.

An Evolution Pearl was even more valuable than a Magic Core!

"Who are you? Can you bring me out?"

Tianci blinked his eyes, smiling innocently.

Huangfu Shenglin started. He thought that he was a human evolved from an evil beast and had not expected the boy to talk.

These beings had been recorded in ancient books. Evil beasts that could converse in human speech really existed. Yet there were very few of them.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Huangfu Shenglin asked coolly. His pupils remained calm, but many Qi Artists behind him were already looking covetous.

Well, if they seized that Evolution Pearl, they could present it to the Emperor and leave it for themselves. Either way, the pearl would be very useful.

"My name is Hua Tianci. My mother is Hua Qiyue! I've been brought here by a man. Big brother, can you bring me back to the capital?" Tianci shook the luminous pearl in his hand. "If you can, bring me out and this pearl is yours!"

The little fellow was young, but he knew that there was no free lunch in this world.

So he used the pearl to secure his exit from the forest. At least, he would be much safer this way.

A tinge of astonishment appeared on Huangfu Shenglin's handsome face!

He had long heard of Hua Qiyue's famous name and had even seen her before. Yet he had never noticed this young fellow.

He did not expect to see him in the Magic Beasts Forest.

"How were you brought here?" Huangfu Shenglin was vigilant. A Qi Artist by his side also cautioned him in a low voice. "Your Highness, we must be careful. This is the Magic Beasts Forest. If an evil beast in a human guise appears suddenly to entice us... "

He meant to kill Tianci and seize the pearl.

Killing two birds with one stone.

The face of Huangfu Shenglin darkened a little. If he was indeed an illusionary human projected by an evil beast, the beast would be an extremely powerful one. So it did not need to deceive and bewitch them using this method.

An evil beast could just raise its hoof and destroy their entire company. It did not need to go through so much trouble just to kill them.

"Shut up. In the future, don't talk any nonsense unless you have my explicit command!"

Huangfu Shenglin shouted coldly.

The countenances of the Qi Artists all changed. They were either in the Oracle Profound Realm or around the Soaring Cloud Realm. Although they were Huangfu Shenglin's subordinates, they had received respect everywhere within the capital.

Since when did they need to respect and fear a young boy? Huangfu Shenglin seemed to think very highly of the boy.

But he was right. After all, this young fellow had an Evolution Pearl in his hand.

They could have the pearl once they brought him out of the Forest. It was a great deal.

"Fine! I agree!" Huangfu Shenglin quietly swept Tianci and his Evolution Pearl a glance.

No one knew what this inscrutable young prince was thinking.

Would he really bring Tianci back home to Hua's Mansion?

Yet it would sound quite bad if a prince really took something from a young boy.

Or should he kill Tianci and grab the Evolution Pearl?

The Qi Artists stared at one another, the expressions in their eyes all quite different.
