Law Of Creation

Chapter 98 - New Companion (Part 1)

Left and right, everywhere was filled with trees. A few lines of sunlight pierced through the dense leaves about them, giving enough illumination toward the place full of shade.

The sound of the dancing leaf could be heard everywhere, giving the sense of serenity in the quiet place.

But the tranquillity was disturbed.

Some sounds of animal's movement were resounded, accompanied by a woman's voice.

"Hey little Yue, where are we going now?" Liao Yun w.h.i.n.ed as she was bored on the horse.

She was an attracting woman with the height of 1.6 meters. Her skin wasn't tanned anymore like her tribesmen peers, but the colour was healthier than Mingyue's pale white skin. Her long hair was tied behind to not disturb her movement for fighting. In each of her hand was her favourite wrist guard.

Liao Yun was wearing a tiger-strip animal skin as her outfit, giving a wild aura around her. Adding the sharp eye and her trained body, even though her body was not bulky, Liao Yun had an expert aura around her.

But unlike her appearance, Liao Yun was whining around as she was bored on the whole journey. She thought after going out of the tribe's settlement, a lot of exciting things would happen. But the truth in front of her had shattered her imagination.

They would only spend six hours on the horse because the horse had their own limitation and stamina. There were not a lot of things for her to do, not even a Fierce Beast. Their journey was too peaceful.

"Do you think a Fierce Beast like a cabbage that will pop out everywhere?" Mingyue rolled her eyes while she was picking the wild veggies.

Even though the sun was still above them, Mingyue was not interested to force her new companion to run through the night. Not only the fatigue of the two horses but also their vision would be limited. Thus the best plan was taking it easy while having a good meal.

"But. . . it is boring!" Liao Yun rolled around the ground, but no one paid any attention toward her.

"What can I do. This place is literally far from civilization." Mingyue wanted to boil all the wild veggies she had found, but it was prevented by Liao Yun's big hand.

"Don't. Give it to me. Your cooking is horrible, you know?"

"Humph. Who said it was horrible. My Xiao Wu said that it was delicious." Puffing her cheeks, Mingyue made a random statement. After a handful of wild veggies was taken, Mingyue sat down while puffing her cheeks and glaring Liao Yun.

"Hey! I never say anything like that!" Xiao Wu protested, but Mingyue didn't even look at her.

"Fine, little girl. Next time you should find a time to refine your cooking skill. It is a horrible sight, you know?" As she took the role of a chef, some good scent flew around and tickled Mingyue's nose.

Knowing her absolute defeat, Mingyue didn't press-on as she put her hand under her chin. "Then I will just leave it to you."

"Return to the topic. Where are we going now? What kind of city?"

". . ." Mingyue didn't answer and she was having fun with Xiao Ming's little beak.

Four years was a long time for an animal or a beast, especially a chick. Xiao Wu and Xiao Jing were different since they were born from Mingyue's soul and Elemental. So the concept of age and grow old was foreign for them. But it was different for Xiao Ming.

Based on the peac.o.c.k, Xiao Ming should be a normal beast. But the only growth Mingyue ever saw was the event after the Resealing Ceremony. Thus, Mingyue made a bold conjecture that Xiao Ming's growth was deeply related with the miasma.

[Sigh. There are too many mysteries about Xiao Ming. Just deal with it when the time comes.]

"Where is that retard Tofu? He has already gone for too long enough." Liao Yun nagged after she was done with the cooking.

". . . I think he has found a Fierce Beast?" Mingyue said with uncertainty while tilted her head a little.

Mingyue had already realized that there was a Fierce Beast nearby. But remembering that Fu Tao was capable enough to defend himself, she left it alone. Especially, she didn't want to let both Fu Tao and Liao Yun knew her secret.

Everything about Xiao Jing and Xiao Wu must be covered as much as possible.

But for Fu Tao to take a long time was weird. As Liao Yun was not patient enough and planned to find Fu Tao, a loud voice could be heard.

Even though Liao Yun stood up in less a second and kept her fighting stance, Mingyue still sat in front of the firewood.

"RUUUUUUUN!" Fu Tao was running at Mingyue and Liao Yun's direction. He was clearly wanted to warn the girls about the pack of Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros behind him. But he didn't even realize that he brought the danger to the girls.

Mingyue was surprised by something else. She clearly only remembered a scent of a Fierce Beast, not the whole pack. She immediately realized the limitation of her sense of smell and couldn't completely depend on it.

"FINALLY! HA HA HA HA!!!" Liao Yun was the only one excited of the scene of a pack of the Iron Skinned Rhinoceros in front of her.

"Xiao Jing, hold your moves." Mingyue still didn't plan to reveal her trump card, and the other side she didn't want both Liao Yun and Fu Tao depended on her later on.

[If they want to go together with me, then the ability to protect oneself is the most important point.]

Looking at the prepared Liao Yun, Fu Tao gritted his teeth as he prepared to fight the pack of Fierce Beast behind him. In a flash, an image of swordfish could be seen and Fu Tao immediately turned back to bear the brunt of the Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros pack's headbutt.

An image of a bear and a cheetah flashed behind Liao Yun's body.

Different from his father, Liao Yun's main weapon was a pair of wrist guard. The prepared Liao Yun ran straight to the centre of the Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros while punching everything in front of her. It was her Battle Technique. She didn't name her Battle Technique yet, but Mingyue could see the straightforward nature of the Battle Technique.

There was no need for any deception, all that was matter was the strength! And using this Battle Strength, Liao Yun would pummel everything that was in her path.

[Those Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros is definitely a suitable opponent for little Yun. These Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros didn't have any special ability other than the thick skin. As long as little Yun punches it a few times, those Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros will definitely fall. But there is only one problem.] Mingyue observed from afar while taking care of the scared horses.

Mingyue's travelling speed was reduced considerably in this journey because of the two additional party, and if the two horses were lost too, she didn't know how long she had to spend until she found the nearest city. In short, these two horses were important.

"You damn Tofu! Can't you cover me a little better!" Liao Yun finally exploded because there were too many Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros around her. Even if she had a monstrous strength and stamina, she couldn't possibly handle all of these defence-speciality Fierce Beasts.

Every time Liao Yun punched one Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros, another two of it would immediately cover the wounded. The Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros's teamwork was splendid!

Even though their speed was slow, each of them covered their pack's weakness. In this way, they would be able to lessen the casualties between them.

"It is hard!" Fu Tao didn't fare any better than Liao Yun because he was circled by the bunch of the Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros. As he moved to one direction, two or three Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros would definitely cut his path.

Unlike the fighting style he used back at the settlement, Fu Tao's current fighting style was more balanced. The tower-shaped shield on both of his hand was not only used as the defensive weapon but also used to hack the enemy by using the sharp edge of the shield. It was akin to a hand to hand combat style using a pair of a shield as his weapon. This fighting style heavily relied on the user's observation of the surroundings. Of course, this fighting style was suitable for Fu Tao, but unfortunately, not for this kind of situation. The passive Fu Tao grew more passive as he lost the initiative.

The Battle Technique that Fu Tao used now was called Fish Scale Armour, covering the pair of a tower-shaped shield in his hand with a strong and sharp fish scale.

Looking at the cornered Fu Tao and the blinded by rage Liao Yun, Mingyue finally chose to interject this fight. The longer they fight, the more time would be wasted. Moreover, she feared the noise of the big fight would attract another Fierce Beast and would make the situation out of control.

"Xiao Jing." Mingyue called Xiao Jing.

"Do I need to clean up after their sorry ass?"

"Don't. Stick to the plan, just give them a little hand. If they are falling back, then let them. If it was the otherwise, incapacitate and let that miserable pair finish them as soon as possible."

After entrusting the pair of horses to Xiao Wu, Mingyue immediately channelled the Elemental in her body. She fused the Elemental from her body with the Elemental from spirit.

Yes, this was the first step to summon the summoned beast for Summoner in her, Mingyue style. This was the result of her observation of the Summoner occupation. Even though she was not a proper Summoner, the knowledge of a Summoner was very useful for the current Mingyue.

As the spherical form of the Elemental fusion was created in front of Mingyue, the Elemental was divided into two opposite colour. Black and white. Yin and Yang. The symbol of Taoism. From the spherical form of Elemental, the crack grew on the surface of the sphere and finally the spherical form of Elemental split into two identical forms. A black fish with a white dot on the forehead, and a white fish with a black dot on the forehead. Mingyue called the pair of fish as the Yin Yang Fish.

The show wasn't ended yet. The pair of fish flew around for a while before morphed into a pair of the dagger in front of Mingyue. As Mingyue grabbed the pair of the black and white dagger, she threw the pair of the dagger into the pack of Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros that was around Liao Yun and Fu Tao.

Even though her throw was not strong, Mingyue didn't feel nervous because she depended on Xiao Jing to move the pair of the dagger itself. A small part of Mingyue's shadow split up and went to chase the pair of the thrown dagger. That shadow was Xiao Jing's Shadow Form.

Of course, Mingyue didn't need to be scared in case that someone saw Xiao Jing accidentally because the colour of the Yin Yang Fish was similar with Xiao Jing. All she needed to do was pretending to not know anything.

Even though the number of Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros that was surrounding Fu Tao was almost twice of the one that was surrounding Liao Yun, Mingyue realized that Liao Yun was in a direr situation. Different from the careful and stable fighting style of Fu Tao, Liao Yun's fighting style was influenced by her own temper and emotion. The longer she was in that situation, Liao Yun would become more rash in the fight.

"Be careful to not kick down Liao Yun's pride, or else it will be troublesome," Mingyue told Xiao Jing to distract the attention of the bunch of the Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros as well as aiming at the tendon to immobilize them for a while. Even if the Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros had a hard and thick skin, it was not strong enough to deflect Xiao Jing's slash.

Of course, Liao Yun would definitely see the movement of Xiao Jing, but not as clear as day. She would only see a flash of black and white around the pack of Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros. Later Mingyue would shrug it off as her summoned beast, Yin Yang Fish.

Xiao Jing's movement was fluid and almost undetectable. After distracting the attention of the bunch of the Fierce Beast, Xiao Jing immediately immobilized the nearest Iron-Skinned Rhinoceros. After that, Xiao Jing immediately moved to support Fu Tao.

The fight now was balanced and gradually Liao Yun gained an advantage.

Even if Liao Yun was puzzled and wanted to ask what just happened, she understood that she had to focus and couldn't afford to split her attention. But she had some guess in her mind as she looked at the direction of Mingyue. And what made Liao Yun was pissed was the leisure expression on Mingyue's face.

[Heck! Do you think this is some kind of picnic? Playground?]

[How can your face have no any tension at all???]

The more Liao Yun looked at the leisure Mingyue, she became more annoyed.

[See what I will do to you after I am done with this sh*t!]
