Chapter 1453 - Chapter 1453 Chapter 1314 Guardian of the Silent Forest

Chapter 1453: Chapter 1314: Guardian of the Silent Forest Chapter 1453: Chapter 1314: Guardian of the Silent Forest Deep green forest airspace, a lithe figure glided past, stirring ripples over the dense ocean of tree crowns.

The creature flying over the forest was a Cloud Bird.

Cloud Birds are mainstream Winged Soul Pets in battle, known for their agility and adeptness at evasion. Many Beast type Soul Pets would struggle to touch them, even if they could walk on air.

This Cloud Bird measured roughly ten meters long, with wings as white as clouds, flapping gently, neither too fast nor too slow.

Riding on the Cloud Bird’s back were two women, one appearing more mature and serious, the other youthful and beautiful, radiating a special spiritual charm.

“Sister Luoyi, we’re almost at the Silent Forest,” said the lovely young girl, smiling.

As they approached the Silent Forest, Ning Man’er’s heart fluttered with excitement.

To her, the Silent Forest felt like home. For ten years, she never once left its borders; the weak Soul Pets and the powerful kings there were all like family to her.

“Let’s stop at the edge fortress of the Silent Forest to rest. After flying for so long, Miss Ning must be tired,” suggested a man riding another Soul Pet, Wo Shan.

“No, I won’t go to the Silent Forest Fortress City,” Ning Man’er immediately shook her head.

Those who had invaded the Silent Forest had marched from that fortress city. Despite the city having been attacked by a large number of Soul Pets, Ning Man’er still harbored deep disdain for it, feeling that the fortress’s army was the principal criminal behind the Silent Forest’s destruction.

“Miss Ning, given our route, we will definitely pass by the Fortress City. The Silent Forest is home to numerous Soul Pets. We should make some preparations before entering…” said Wo Shan.

“There’s nothing special to prepare. Since Miss Ning doesn’t wish to go to the Fortress City, then we won’t. The Ning clan leader has also instructed us to bring you straight home,” the serious and mature woman, Luo Yi, mentioned.

“Well, then,” Wo Shan nodded.

…

They didn’t have to pass through the Fortress City completely. After flying over a relatively calm part of the forest, the Cloud Bird started heading toward the inner part of the Silent Forest.

The Silent Forest was known for its towering ancient trees, even many grasses and flowers growing as tall as ordinary trees.

The crowns of these ancient trees in the Silent Forest looked like clumps of deep green clouds, floating against the clean blue sky, while the trees’ trunks, straight as columns, reached for the heavens. Occasionally, trees with a multitude of branches would interlock, tangling trunks, branches, crowns, treetops, and vines into a complex network, forming a sprawling plant city between the sky and ground.

“Miss Ning, we’re going to land. This ancient forest harbors many powerful winged creatures of the Jungle. Flying over their territory can bring us considerable trouble. Still, the Silent Forest is always complex in terrain, like a vast labyrinth. I’m worried we might lose our direction even if we land,” Luo Yi said.

Even if its core was destroyed, the Silent Forest remained a forbidden area for humans, where even Immortal Level Powerhouses dared not fly casually.

“It’s okay. Sister Luo Yi can keep flying deep into the Silent Forest. The Winged Guardians outside won’t stop us,” Ning Man’er replied with a smile.

In truth, even outside the Silent Forest, if Ning Man’er flew over their territories, empires and dynasties wouldn’t trouble her. She could easily communicate with wild Soul Pets and gain their friendly trust.

“I heard from Lord He Cang that you’ve lost your strength. Will those Soul Pets in the Silent Forest still acknowledge you?” Wo Shan asked.

“Yes, they will. Communicating and inheriting power is unrelated. They are still very willing to follow me… Look…” As Ning Man’er spoke, a flock of delicate Colored Sparrows burst from a huge green crown in the Silent Forest.

The Colored Sparrows sang melodious tunes, circling her in an orderly fashion.

Naturally changing colors, the Sparrows’ swirling around made it seem as if vivid rainbows accompanied Ning Man’er, highlighting her in light blue garb, making her appear even more exquisite and enchanting.

Such creatures as the Colored Sparrows had no particular battle strength and were known as the forest guides. Their speed could become incredibly fast when flying beside more potent beings. Even the higher-ranked Immortal levels could easily be led by these petite birds.

Guided by the Colored Sparrows, the journey saved much time, and before they knew it, they had entered the Silent Forest’s heart.

The true Silent Forest housed neither the Soul Pet Empire nor the Soul Pet World Dynasty. Most of its inhabitants were reasonably unique or had considerable strength.

As they reached the heart of the Silent Forest, everything became very familiar to Ning Man’er.

Soon, strange Winged Soul Pets landed on the tree crowns; they poked out their heads, watching Ning Man’er atop the Cloud Bird.

It seemed like a signal. Where the Cloud Bird flew, surrounding creatures either climbed up to gaze at Ning Man’er or followed Luo Yi’s Cloud Bird for a distance. This phenomenon left Luo Yi and Wo Shan, two Soul Pet Masters who had never witnessed such a sight, utterly astonished.

There always exists a barrier between unfamiliar soul pets and humans, even outright hostility and opposition, with few humans able to communicate well with wild soul pets without a soul contract.

Yet Ning Man’er was obviously an exception; she was like a princess of the Soul Pets World, always surrounded and welcomed by a group of soul pets wherever she went.

Ning Man’er’s smile was ever-present, and the faint melancholy between her brows also gradually dissipated with the appearance of these familiar soul pets around her.

If the Silent Forest were her hometown, then these soul pets were the villagers of her hometown, simple and friendly, making Ning Man’er feel a sense of kinship.

Perhaps because she had lived in the Silent Forest for too long, Ning Man’er found that there was always some barrier between herself and other people, and it was hard to find a few who could speak intimately with her, so she was always gloomy in the Royal Palace…

The deeper into the Silent Forest, the more soul pets appeared, and many of them were kings with strength so formidable that both Luo Yi and Wo Shan dared not even breathe heavily.

Had they not witnessed it for themselves, it would have been difficult for the two of them to imagine that the ferocious beasts, which were once extremely terrifying in the eyes of soul pet trainers, could have such a gentle and affable side in front of Ning Man’er.

“Yi~~~~~~~~~~~~~”

A three-eyed wind hawk spread its grey wings, flying at the same altitude as the cloud birds.

The three-eyed wind hawk tilted its head to look at Ning Man’er, its eyes as soft as a soul pet that had signed a soul contract with a human, even resembling an elder looking after its junior.

“Uncle Wind Eagle,” Ning Man’er said, her smile even more brilliant when she saw the three-eyed wind hawk.

This three-eyed wind hawk was indeed a true relative of Ning Man’er in the Silent Forest.

When she was very young, she would always lay on the three-eyed wind hawk’s head and let it take her soaring above the Silent Forest. But the mischievous Ning Man’er was never still, and from time to time, she would slip off the three-eyed wind hawk’s large head.

At those moments, the three-eyed wind hawk would panic and dive from the sky, then catch her in its beak.

Ning Man’er jumped onto the three-eyed wind hawk from the cloud bird, finding the hawk’s feathers quite soft and very comfortable to lie on.

The hawk’s wings were a lot stronger than the cloud bird’s, giving it a very powerful flight.

It carried Ning Man’er up into the high altitude, then dived below the lush tree crowns. The vast open sky and the intricate dense forest kept alternating, with flying skills so advanced that both Luo Yi and Wo Shan, riding on cloud birds, could only watch in envy.

Familiar backs, familiar scenes; Ning Man’er, who should have been satisfied, didn’t know why her eyes became somewhat wet.

“Uncle Wind Eagle, is everyone still okay?” Ning Man’er asked while sitting on the hawk’s big head, her voice soft.

“Yi~~~~~~~~” The three-eyed wind hawk let out a low moan.

“Do you know where they have gone?” Ning Man’er continued to ask.

The three-eyed wind hawk shook its head.

After the human invasion, too many guardians were buried in the Silent Forest, eternally silent and asleep.

As for those guardians that did not die, they had now disappeared without a trace. So many years had passed, and more and more unfamiliar faces were entering the Silent Forest, which meant that the Silent Forest, once like a big family home, was gradually becoming a place inhabited by strangers and strangers.

“Take me to Grandpa Tree. It must miss me,” Ning Man’er said in a low voice.

The three-eyed wind hawk nodded and carried Ning Man’er towards the depths of the Silent Forest.

Luo Yi and Wo Shan were responsible for protecting Ning Man’er, so naturally, they followed closely.

However, just as they were to enter further into the depths of the Silent Forest with Ning Man’er, many wind hawks appeared in the surrounding tree crowns, forming an orderly aerial formation. Like a black net, they blocked Luo Yi and Wo Shan outside a circle marked by the distinctly dark blue trees.

It was clear that these wind hawks bore hostility and did not allow the two of them to pass.

“Sister Luo Yi, Brother Wo Shan, wait for me at the edge fortress of the Silent Forest. The Silent Forest is my home, and everyone will protect me, so rest easy,” Ning Man’er called back to them.

Luo Yi and Wo Shan couldn’t rest easy and wanted to follow, but Ning Man’er had already flown far away with the three-eyed wind hawk, and facing this dense battalion of wind hawks, they had no confidence they could break through.

The Wind Falcon Clan was one of the older races of the Silent Forest, and after the decline of the forest, they were one of the few guardian races still protecting the Silent Forest, led by the three-eyed wind hawks.
