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

96 An Ambush In The Dark

Gradually, the two of them followed the red ray of light into the depths of the forest. The deeper they went, the darker their surroundings became.

“Growl…” The Ice Spirit beside Aloy looked around uneasily and growled in a low voice.

The Flame Owl on Shen Fei’s shoulder was also vigilantly looking around.

Suddenly, Aloy stopped in her tracks and grabbed Shen Fei’s arm. “Wait, don’t go forward!” Her eyes were fixed straight ahead, and her entire person revealed an uneasy feeling.

“Is there something in front?” Shen Fei frowned and was about to send the Flame Owl to investigate when Aloy immediately stopped him.

“Wait for a while, give me some time.” With that, she took off her glasses, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes tight. Everything around her seemed to slow down.

When she opened her eyes again, everything in the distance moved at a speed dozens of times faster than before. Every flower, every blade of grass, every leaf and tree. The activity tracks of all living things turned into long lines that intertwined together, and Aloy could see it all.

Aloy’s eyelids twitched in pain, and she subconsciously covered her forehead. She received too much information at once, and her entire mind was buzzing.

‘Focus… Focus…’

Aloy took another deep breath and slowly raised her head, focusing her gaze on the darkness in the distance. The moment she opened her eyes, a Giant Tiger that was more than ten meters tall suddenly sprang out of the bushes!

The huge black tiger with blood-colored stripes opened its mouth and swallowed the defenseless Shen Fei in one gulp!

“Hahahahaha! I’ve finally succeeded!”

Lear stood on the head of the beast and laughed arrogantly.

She did not expect him to appear here again. Aloy looked warily at the Lear in the illusion. If she had not been here today, Lear might have actually succeeded.

However, there was one thing that Aloy was particularly concerned about. The beast did not seem to be acting on instinct, but on Lear’s orders.

Aloy frowned. ‘Could it be that Lear has mastered a way to control these beasts? But how did he do it?… Forget it, I won’t bother about that for now. It’s more important to let Shen Fei avoid this crisis.’

With a blink of her eyes, her surroundings returned to normal. Shen Fei was standing beside her, looking at Aloy with a puzzled expression.

Aloy grabbed Shen Fei’s hand and said in an extremely serious manner, “Don’t go near that place, Shen Fei, someone is waiting to ambush you.”

“Huh?” Shen Fei blinked his eyes in confusion.

However, Aloy did not seem to be lying to him, considering how serious she was.

“How did you know?”

“Don’t worry about that.” Aloy grabbed Shen Fei’s hand tightly and her eyes became extremely determined. “You just need to trust me.”

“…Okay.” Shen Fei nodded his head. Although he still had many questions in his heart, Shen Fei still tightly held on to Aloy’s hand. After all, he and Aloy were in the same boat. If there was really danger ahead, even Aloy would not be able to escape.

But what was in front of them that could actually make Aloy so afraid?

Shen Fei gazed into the darkness in front of them, he was on full alert. He followed Aloy’s pace and retreated step by step. With every step that Shen Fei took, Lear’s life path changed constantly in Aloy’s eyes.

But the further Shen Fei went from Lear, the more Lear did not dare to act rashly. He could only wander around in the darkness.

Aloy frowned and stared straight ahead. They could not keep wasting time like this. The current Lear had absolute strength. The only reason he did not do anything was because he did not want to hurt her. If this dragged on, given Lear’s character, he would take the risk sooner or later.

“Shen Fei, you should still have other things to do, right?” Aloy turned her head and looked at Shen Fei beside her. Her eyes were filled with determination. “Don’t waste your time here.”

Aloy pointed at the path to the side. From here, due to the rugged terrain, Lear would not be able to catch up to Shen Fei for a while.

“If you’re in a hurry, you can leave from the side. I’ll take care of the problem here.”

“Are you kidding me? Can you do it?” Shen Fei frowned and looked at Aloy worriedly.

He did want to go rescue Luo Ying as soon as possible, but would Aloy be able to deal with the ferocious exotic beasts by herself?

“I’ll be fine. Trust me, don’t worry and go save them.”

Aloy looked at the darkness in front of her with determination. After all, even if Lear really came out to confront her, he would not hurt her. Why not let Shen Fei leave this place and do what he has to do?

“With my current strength, dealing with this exotic beast should not be a problem. You, on the other hand, should hurry up with your rescus mission.”

“In that case, I’ll leave this to you.” Shen Fei nodded his head decisively. He turned around and ran toward where the red light pointed.

‘Damn it, why did Shen Fei leave?’ Lear was so angry that he grabbed a fistlful of his spirit beast’s fur. He watched Shen Fei with hatred as he left.

He had already been waiting for Shen Fei in this godforsaken place for half a day, and when he was finally about to walk into the trap he set…

‘Why did Aloy have to stop him?! This can’t go on!’

Lear brought the beast under him and turned to look in the direction that Shen Fei had taken. There was still time to catch up to him and kill him!

If he missed this opportunity, he might have to wait for a long time for the next one!

“Alright, uncle, hurry up and come out.”

Aloy squinted her eyes and looked at the darkness not far away in disgust. It had already come to this, yet Lear was still thinking of hurting Shen Fei.

It was really annoying.

Lear blinked his eyes and quietly lowered his body.

“Stop hiding, I can already see you.”

‘What?’ Lear looked at Aloy in surprise. ‘How did she find me?’

“Stop hiding, uncle.”

Aloy looked at Lear coldly.

“Your spirit beast’s tail is already exposed, so stop hiding from me.”

At this point, Aloy silently shifted her gaze to a black tail that was constantly twitching around in the shadows.

He did not expect that, even though he had disguised himself so well, he would actually give himself away in this aspect! Since he had been made, there was no other way…

“Cough, cough!” Lear cleared his throat twice to school his ferocious expression. He hopped down from the exotic beast without a sound.

“What are you talking about, Aloy? What spirit beast?”

‘Ugh…’ Aloy frowned in disgust. He had already been exposed, yet Lear still wanted to act ignorant? Did he really think she was easy to fool?

Aloy looked at Lear with contempt.

If it were not for Shen Fei’s sake, she would have already let her Ice Spirit spit a ball of ice at Lear’s face.
