Chapter 456 Moving in the Forest On A Tiger (1/2)

Humans could only see the world as it is, but Celestials were capable of seeing beyond it.

Han Ying did not understand that when Shen Lian said he was greater than stars, it was not all talks. The Eldest Young Lady, Chen Qing was on her back and Shen Lian was lying on top of her head.

She did not have much energy left, and yet Shen Lian was resting next to her ears, correcting her breathing methods. Despite it being awkward at first, but she realized that she could always muster up energy with her exhausted body.

Shen Lian told her to get into the woods. In nature, even if the rebels were to find their way over, Shen Lian would be able to protect the both of them easily.

Even though Shen Lian was merely a baby who could not even walk yet, Han Ying chose to believe in him - she herself was unsure why.

She thought Shen Lian's peculiarity was the reason, but little did she know that she had been undergoing training since young and was not exposed to lies and trickeries. Hence, her heart was purer than most people. She could judge kindness and malice more accurately than others. On top of that, Shen Lian was a convincing person.

Shen Lian taught her the proper breathing methods in order for her to utilise her strength better. It was not for her to generate energy out of thin air. She started slowing down, but not before they had reached the nearest mountain to them - Mount Jieyang.

The ravines overlapped, the vines were dense. Far away, one could see the never-ending mountain range and the lush green forest. Some trees extended up into the sky, it would seem that they had lived for more than a few hundred years.

Perhaps it was one of the peculiarities of this world, Shen Lian noticed that the leaves looked smooth and shiny from a far, akin to pieces of jade. The leaves were broad too.

Han Ying carried Chen Qing and Shen Lian to a mountain stream. She was too tired. It was relatively quiet here, she could leave both of them safely and start a fire before heading off to search for food.

A gust of wind blew past. A black tiger jumped out of the rocks.

The dragons controlled the clouds, while the tigers controlled the wind. Wind started blowing wildly after the black tiger leaped out. Han Ying had no energy left, and she was stunned.

She stared as the tiger leaped down from the rocks and made its way towards them.

She held her narrow and long sword tightly, her gaze meeting the black tiger without so much of a blink of her eyes. This tiger was bigger than an adult. It walked forward casually, its cold gaze was a terrifying sight.

Han Ying thought that this would be the end of her. Fortunately, the Eldest Young Lady had fainted. At least she would not die a painful death.

Suddenly, she remembered about the Eldest Young Lady's strange son.

The moment that her attention was divided, the black tiger leaped forward. The breeze whizzed and she almost lost her footing.

However, the black tiger was not leaping towards her. It was in front of Shen Lian and she almost yelled. She knew that Shen Lian could not even walk. Despite his peculiarities, this sudden development might cost him his life.

As she groaned inwardly and was about to charge at the black tiger with everything she had, she was surprised by how the black tiger was curling up on the ground in front of Shen Lian. It was akin to a big black cat who was trying to lick Shen Lian.

Shen Lian reached his fair hand forward and slapped on its tongue.

The black tiger no longer looked like the King of the Jungle. It was nothing more than a pet, a big black cat.

Shen Lian carressed its fur and spoke gently to Han Ying, ”It told me that behind the rocks, there is a cave not far away. Bring my mother there and start a fire. Xiao Hei and I will look for food.” Just like that, Shen Lian gave the black tiger a cliche name.
