Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

381 I Was Just Lucky

The mournful death cry resounded through the night sky and echoed in every corner of the Misty Mountains.

In a forest somewhere in the Misty Mountains, when two women heard the desolate wail, their bodies trembled slightly, and a trace of fear rose in their hearts. Their faces were pale, and their eyes were filled with fear and nervousness.

“What’s going on?” Lilian said in panic.

Aloy frowned and slowly said, “From the sound of it, it should be Shen Fei and the others. We can’t hold them back. Let’s get rid of the giant pythons pursuing us first. Come on!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Aloy immediately pulled Lilian away. The two of them traveled quickly. In just over ten minutes, they shook off the pythons.

At this moment, Lilian looked at Aloy like she wanted to say something.

“Aloy, you’re so beautiful. I’m really envious that people want to court you,” Lilian said bitterly. Her expression was dark, as if she was talking about something else entirely.

“Hmm?” Aloy furrowed her brows and pondered for a while before she smiled. “It’s actually quite troublesome.”

At this, Lilian was stunned. She did not understand why Aloy would be troubled by being courted.

“No wonder Brother Shen Fei likes you…” Lilian’s eyes turned red as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Aloy sighed in her heart and did not pry.

Although she was not too sure of what happened between Lilian and Shen Fei, she knew that Lilian was interested in Shen Fei.

“Alright, we’ll talk about it later. Let’s go find Shen Fei and the others.” Aloy smiled weakly and brought Lilian into the depths of the Misty Mountains.

…

“Roar…” The Red-striped Tiger let out its last breath of despair before it died. It roared at the sky and shook the surroundings.

After the Red-striped Tiger died, Shen Fei, perched on the massive tree of which the Flaming Bramble Inferno skill had commandeered, finally opened his eyes. A devilish smile appeared on his face.

Shen Fei tucked the Flame Owl back into the pocket realm.

“Shen Fei, how did your strength increase so quickly?” Xia’er looked pale as a sheet when he saw Shen Fei defeat the Red-striped Tiger.

Shen Fei smiled faintly. “I was just lucky.”

The two of them left the area, planning to rendezvous with the others. As they walked, Shen Fei suddenly stopped.

When Shen Fei stopped, Xia’er quickly asked, “Huh? Shen Fei, what’s wrong?”

Shen Fei pointed at a light in the forest in the distance and said in a whisper, “There’s someone there!”

“Someone’s there?” Xia’er’s expression changed, and he immediately looked around vigilantly. “Where?”

“Southeast, about a few hundred meters away,” Shen Fei said. He then walked toward the area where the light was, “Let’s go take a look.”

Xia’er nodded and followed Shen Fei to the light source. Soon, the two of them were near enough to survey more closely.

“There’s actually a house here!” Xia’er said in surprise.

He saw a wooden house sitting on an ancient tree in the distance. The house was built in a very simple structure, but it looked quite sturdy. It might even withstand a raging hurricane.

At this moment, a small voice came from the house, causing Shen Fei and Xia’er’s expressions to suddenly turn serious.

“Who is it?” A cold voice suddenly shouted from the wooden house.

Immediately afterward, a series of rapid sounds of some kind of assault, accompanied by a whooshing sound, broke through the air and rang out from the wooden house. In an instant, something rushed toward Shen Fei and Xia’er, blocking their way.

The newcomer was a man in his mid-twenties. He was dressed in black and held a short sword in his hand. He looked ready to kill.

“Who are you? Why are you here?” The young man questioned. His sharp gaze locked onto Shen Fei and the other man. The young man’s aura was cold, giving off a sense of danger.

“Who are you?” Xia’er asked back, showing no emotion on his pretty face.

“Hmph, I’ve always lived here.” The young man said derisively.

Hearing this, Shen Fei frowned. “No, you’re lying. You came here to look for something, right? You heard the commotion, so you hid in this house.”

Shen Fei’s tone surprised the young man. He looked at Shen Fei. “Young man, you’re very smart. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”

“We have no grudges. If you wanted to kill us, you wouldn’t have hid or lied,” Shen Fei said casually, his eyes never leaving the young man.

“Hahahahaha!” The young man threw his head back and laughed. His laughter was filled with mockery. “You’re not bad. You have guts. In that case, there’s no harm in telling you.

“There’s a purple spirit flower in this forest. As long as you pluck it and eat it, your cultivation speed will increase by threefold.

“It’s a pity that the purple spirit flower grows in a swamp, so it needs a pond environment. I saw a light coming out of the swamp just now, so I guessed that someone had gotten there first. I was going to take a look.”

“A genuine purple spirit flower?” Xia’er’s face was filled with excitement, and he could not help but gulp in anticipation.

He had only read about the legendary purple spirit flower in books. The purple spirit flower was a high-tier spirit flower. It had many effects such as cleansing the marrow, strengthening the bones, and increasing the speed of one’s cultivation.

“Hehe, looks like my luck is pretty good!” The young man smiled faintly. His smile revealed a hint of guile.

“We have different goals, so we shall part ways here,” Shen Fei said calmly, and then continued to walk deeper into the Misty Mountains with Xia’er.

“Hmm?” Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, the young man was slightly startled. He did not expect them to not react with greed. This made him a little suspicious, and he became even more vigilant, afraid that those two were up to no good.

Shen Fei’s performance especially made the young man feel a trace of fear, and he did not dare attack them rashly.

At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew.

“What’s happening?” The young man’s heart jumped. He suddenly turned his head to look in the direction where the wind came from, and his pupils shrank down to pinpricks!

Deafening bestial roars echoed one after another, mixed with a strong wind that billowed over, making his hair stand on end.

“Wild beasts!” The young man was scared out of his wits, and he fled without hesitation.

The savage roars rang out as hundreds of huge spirit beasts charged onward, madly chasing after the fleeing young man.

The scene was extremely spectacular!

‘What’s going on? Why are these beasts suddenly becoming restless? Could it be related to the wormhole?’

Shen Fei frowned at the thought of this. It seemed that he had to quickly complete the task here and take a look at the wormhole.

“Brother Shen Fei!”

At that moment, he heard a familiar voice.

“Hmm?” Shen Fei turned around and saw a figure speeding toward him from afar.

“…It’s Lilian!” Shen Fei raised his eyebrows slightly and went over to greet her.

Lilian was very fast and arrived in front of Shen Fei in just a few breaths. She panted heavily, her forehead was covered in sweat, and her face was filled with anxiety.

“It’s terrible! Aloy was… She was captured by an exotic beast!” Lilian cried.
