Can't Afford to Offend My Scheming Disciple

36. Into the Mystery Land IV

Translator: Alanese Fantasy

Time passed in such a race.

Night fell.

The bright moonlight cast light to the ground, coating the earth with a soft silver halo.

Swish-

A flash of black shadow flashed, which startled countless fireflies in the grass. The latter spread all over the sky and lit up the world.

The fireflies in twos and threes gathered together, as if discussing what was disturbing them just now.

In the middle of the night.

The fireflies had also returned to their own places in the grass one after another, ready to have a wonderful night.

All of a sudden, another black shadow flashed through the grass, and the fireflies who were ready to fall asleep were frightened again. Even many fireflies were hurt by the powerful breath emitted by the black shadow and fell to the ground.

The fireflies flew frantically in the sky and couldn’t calm down for a long time.

Tonight it was destined to be sleepless.

There was a glimmer in the sky at dawn, and the dew on the roadside leaves was flew up by a gust of wind, and then fell to the ground.

Nan Chen gasped slightly. After a day and a night of running, he was already very tired, but he did not slow down.

One more day to go. As long as after today, the mystery land would be opened. And the Red-White Serpent King would not catch up with Nan Chen once he got out of the mystery land.

Nan Chen took a look at his storage ring. There were not many elixirs left, and the medicine that Zhuo Hua had given him was almost run out during this period of time.

‘Is this the result of being too impatient to enter the mystery land ahead of time?

No, I can’t die here. I haven’t taken revenge yet. Zhuo Hua is still alive. I just can’t die.’

Nan Chen collected himself and decided to continue running ahead.

Nevertheless, the distance between Nan Chen and the Serpent King was getting closer.

–

Zhuo Hua looked at the small spiritual beast which had suddenly appeared in front of him. It had a lion’s head and a tiger’s tail with black and white stripes all over its body.

A Tigon?

A Tigon was a spiritual beast, a hybrid offspring of a spiritual lion and a spiritual tiger. The hybrid beasts always had strong talents, but because of being mixed-blood,  they would always be excluded by other spiritual beasts in its family.

Zhuo Hua frowned, unable to understand why the small spiritual beast stopped him.

The Tigon walked slowly to the foot of Zhuo Hua. Feeling that this Tigon didn’t mean to hurt him, Zhuo Hua didn’t stop it from approaching.

It grabbed the hem of Zhuo Hua’s clothes and pulled him to one direction.

Zhuo Hua didn’t expect a small spiritual beast to have such a great strength, so he was unprepared and was pulled a stumble by it.

“Where are you taking me to?”

The Tigon just kept pulling Zhuo Hua and wanted Zhuo Hua to follow it.

Zhuo Hua thought for a moment and said, “Are you going to take me to Nan Chen?”

It tilted the head and thought carefully for a while. ‘That man is called Nan something,’ It nodded its head towards Zhuo Hua.

Zhuo Hua felt surprised and followed behind the Tigon.

Although he had no idea why the small Tigon wanted to take him to Nan Chen and how it knew he was looking for Nan Chen, Zhuo Hua had a hunch that he would find Nan Chen by following this Tigon.

At the same time, the Red-White Serpent King caught up with Nan Chen. The serpent and the man stood in a stalemate.

Nan Chen didn’t take any move. He was no match for the Serpent King. He just wanted to win some time and wait for the reopening of the mystery land.

The Red-White Serpent King did not take action either because it was afraid that this human would throw something out again. The thing thrown on it yesterday hurt him badly, and it was terribly painful.

After a long time, the Serpent King lost its patience and dashed towards Nan Chen.

The heat in its body made the Serpent King very uncomfortable, and this special day always haunted it like this every year.
