After Yang Dingtian left, Yanyan looked into the sky outside the window and said,
Daddy, I’ve tried my best.
Then, her gaze focused on the Xuan Dissociation Pill in her hand. This was the thing that she exchanged for her Feng Yan Sword.
She clenched her teeth, and her small hands suddenly contracted into a tight fist.
Instantly, the precious Xuan Dissociation Pill was crushed. Tons of light shot out of the remains. Then, the entire potion vanished bit by bit until there was nothing left in her hand.
There were fewer than six days left until the Yin Yang Festival. Before then, Yang Dingtian had to personally kill five types of beasts. Then, he had to find a location where Yin and Yang would merge to set up a formation.
The five types of beasts were: fire, wind, gold, ice, and electric!
There were tons of fire and gold type beasts near Cloud Sky City. As for the wind type, it was very rare.
But, even rarer were ice type beasts due to the fact that this entire Northwest Mainland floated over magma. It was an absolutely fire-natured continent. There were absolutely no habitats for ice-type beasts.
As for the electric type, it was absolutely rare even across the entire world because all electric beasts were half energy.
As such, killing an electric-type beast was the hardest task.
He would start killing from the easiest and handle the hardest ones later. He would go after fire and gold creatures first. Both of these creatures could be found within a hundred miles of Cloud Sky City. Furthermore, the area was still Cloud Sky City’s territory, which made it safe.
But, there was one problem!
In order to hunt for creatures within this hundred miles, he needed to ride a flying creature. The reason was that there were deep magma veins along the way that made it impossible to travel on horseback. On top of that, he must prepare many medicines and potions. However, Yang Dingtian did not have any of those, and he surely can’t go back to find Yanyan.
It was true that the two of them had not said anything harsh just now, and Yang Dingtian had treated Yanyan gently and lovingly from his heart. However, before he managed to break through, he can’t go looking for Yanyan as she would just be extremely disappointed with him.
According to normal procedures, he was supposed to find Tang Xin because she was the Primary Martial Tutor. She was the one in charge of bringing low cultivation disciples out into the field. The other option was finding Ximen Ju because he managed the entire Cloud Sky City. However, Yang Dingtian would only be humiliated if he went to them.
In Cloud Sky City, it could be said that Yang Dingtian was unaccompanied and helpless to the extent that he might not even be able to go hunting in the field.
Then, there was only one person left who Yang Dingtian could find: Ximen Ningning.
That’s right. She was the gentle and virtuous sister that Yanyan had talked about. Yanyan had wanted her to marry Yang Dingtian as well. She was Ximen Wuya’s only adopted daughter.
Ximen Ningning’s position in Cloud Sky City was very special and almost irreplaceable. This was because she was a genius who spoke the language of the beasts.
Whoever masters the beast language was capable of understanding beasts, controlling them, summoning them, as well as interacting with them.
The people who can master the beast language were extremely rare. They might not even number one in ten thousand. As a result, their positions in the chaotic mainland were extremely high and were treasured by every faction.
Ximen Ningning was a genius even among those who could master the beast language.
Therefore, her position in Cloud Sky City was fairly high. Any party who wanted to expand their power would have to please her.
If it hadn’t been for her cold character and poor communication skills, she would have been one of the nine elders in Cloud Sky City. But even so, she is also serving as one of the honorary elders. It was just that she never cared about Cloud Sky City matters and basically just stayed in her valley without ever stepping out. She merely took care of Cloud Sky City’s combat and transport beasts.
Originally, Yang Dingtian had thought that getting her help was the optimal choice. Not only would she lend Yang Dingtian a flying creature to carry him, but she would also know about all creatures within a thousand miles of the city. If he wanted to hunt creatures, she was the best person to find.
However, Ximen Yanyan had once said that she wanted to make Ximen Ningning Yang Dingtian’s second wife. Thus, he felt a little embarrassed to find her.
Moreover, he heard that this girl was an extreme introvert and almost never interacted with people. Yang Dingtian thought that it would be a challenge even for him.
But, Yang Dingtian had no other alternative. If he didn’t go find Ximen Ningning to borrow a flying creature, he would not be able to go hunting in the wilds.
I’m a man with very thick skin. What’s there to be embarrassed about?
Yang Dingtian clenched his teeth and decided to go find Ximen Ningning.
Ximen Ningning lived in the quietest and most secluded part of Cloud Sky City, a small valley. A few hundred meters before reaching the valley, he felt a quiet atmosphere and could not see a single human being. Only a few people were allowed entrance into this place.
As he entered the valley, Yang Dingtian immediately felt a dangerous atmosphere.
Oh…
Immediately, two white shadows rushed in front of Yang Dingtian like lightning.
It was two lions, each about one meter long. One had a snow-white body, while the other was fiery red. They each had a pair of sharp wings, looked extremely beautiful and mighty, and was marked with six stripes on its forehead, labeling them as rank six creatures.
Sixth-ranked creatures were the elites among the beasts. One could only imagine how many years it took to cultivate one and how many lives it needed to kill! At the very least, there are not many in Cloud Sky City who were capable of fighting these lions. But, such strong creatures were kept by Ximen Ningning to guard the entrance. It was obvious that Ximen Ningning was extremely powerful.
Yang Dingtian clearly felt the powerful strength of these two lions. At his current level, they would only need seconds to kill him in a fight. After they rushed in front of Yang Dingtian, they did not bite him but rather, stared at him coldly and arrogantly.
It was true that even though they were beasts, they knew that they were strong. When facing someone weak like Yang Dingtian, they looked down on him.
They used their eyes to warn Yang Dingtian to back off and leave. Otherwise, they will not tolerate him any longer.
I want to see your master.
Yang Dingtian didn’t back off. He didn’t know if these two creatures would understand, but he said it anyway.
Hongg….
One of the white lions roared. A blue light shot out of its mouth and struck a huge rock beside Yang Dingtian.
Instantly, Yang Dingtian felt a bit of coldness in his bones, and the surrounding ground within dozens of meters turned into ice. That huge rock that probably weighed ten thousand kilograms was also frozen, covered with a layer of blue ice.
Hongg…
The other lion roared and spat out a bunch of flames, which also struck that huge frozen rock.
Crakk..
Instantly, the huge rock shattered into pieces, and all the plants within dozens of meters were all burnt into ashes.
Yang Dingtian sucked in a cold breath. Sixth-ranked creatures were actually this strong. That ten thousand kilogram rock was easily destroyed by them. If they attacked Yang Dingtian, then….
The young lady is not in the mood today. She’s not seeing anyone. Please leave.
A voice could be heard from the valley. It was cold but gentle like a stream. However, it rejected him with determination.
I am Yang Dingtian, here to greet Ms. Ximen Ningning
Ahh….
Yang Dingtian heard a soft scream, which sounded like the owner was panicking.
After a while, a voice could be heard from the inside.
Then… then come in…
The two lions stared at Yang Dingtian one more time. They then gave him a warning glare and disappeared into the bushes, opening the path for him.
Yang Dingtian entered the valley. It was a place filled with Cloud Sky City blossoms. There were small creatures, strong creatures, and normal animals everywhere. Yang Dingtian was so fascinated that he didn’t even blink.
On the left side of the grassland, there was a beautiful white fox looking at him.
On the right side was a tree, on which a squirrel was fighting a red mink for a fruit. When he looked closely, the red mint was a rank five creature, while the squirrel was only a normal squirrel. The red mink just had to spit out a mouthful of gas and the squirrel would be dead, but it still used its claws to fight for the fruit.
Yang Dingtian felt an extremely comfortable atmosphere in this place. In here, weak animals can actually live with strong creatures, even though strong creatures were typically extremely cruel and violent.
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian heard a loud, painful scream. Then, a monkey ran out to the road with its entire body wrapped up by a big snake. The snake similarly had five line marks. It was four to five meter long and opened its big mouth to swallow the pitiful monkey.
This snake was rank five creature, while the monkey was only a normal monkey. Yang Dingtian was shocked and instinctively drew his sword to save the monkey.
Surprisingly, just as the snake was about to bite down, the monkey used both hands to hold the snake’s mouth open. It then escaped from the snake’s grip and hopped on its back. Then, both snake and monkey showed Yang Dingtian a mocking face before disappearing into the grass.
They were actually playing, Yang Dingtian realized.
…
Is there anything that made you come find me?
Suddenly, a gentle and cold voice could be heard.
Her voice sounded as if she had no contact with the outside world. It was like she was uneasily talking to a stranger.
Yang Dingtian raised his head and saw a lady standing under a tree not far away.
His eyes were attracted to her curvy and delicate body figure as it was extremely attractive. This was almost the most perfect body shape that Yang Dingtian has ever seen, comparable with Dongfang Bingling’s figure. Whether it was her bust line or her waistline, they were all in perfect proportions.
Yang Dingtian was so attracted to her body that he forgot to look at her face. He raised his head and saw her face.
Her gaze was like water. Her brows were like mountains. Her hair was extremely black, and her skin was fairly white.
However, this face would not be considered the prettiest. It was just elegant. It was very soft as if formed by wind and water. It was another kind of beauty, another type of attraction.
Yang Dingtian looked at her for only a moment. She had a very uneasy expression. Her cheek was all reddish.
Actually, Yang Dingtian also felt uneasy because Yanyan had mentioned too many times that she wanted Ximen Ningning to also marry him. Afterwards, they would use the Yin Yang Xuan Absorbing Arts to pass her Xuan energy to him.
I came to seek your help. I need to go into the wilds to hunt for creatures….
