Chapter 349: Chapter 253 Sha Yun’s Beastliness_2

"I’m truly sorry," Sha Yun apologized. She also wanted to visit, but no matter how much she wished, she knew Hui Yue needed time for cultivation. He had experienced troubling situations and currently required daily training to reach his utmost level before the brewing war in Liluo City erupted.

"Yan Xiaobao is not with me," Sha Yun replied as she noticed Ice Bird glancing around incessantly, seemingly expecting Yan Xiaobao to appear at any moment. She chuckled. "Something has happened in the city," Sha Yun said seriously. "Do you still remember the Stone Forest I mentioned to you before?" The snake woman asked, her mind racing to figure out the best way to persuade her sisters. Seeing the two humans nod eagerly, Sha Yun allowed herself a slight smile.

Ever since Sha Yun first returned to the forest, she had spent most of her time explaining the outside world. Every word she spoke would light up the eyes of her two sisters with excitement and a trace of longing could be seen.

However, the two of them had no intention of handing over their freedom to cultivators. They preferred to live as they always had, just as they had until now.

"The Stone Forest is on the brink of war," Sha Yun explained, deciding to try and help her sisters understand. "Imagine this—two Holy Beast factions lined with magical creatures in this forest, and not just Old Snake." She paused to give her sisters a moment to picture what that might look like. "All beasts in this forest must choose which of the two Holy Beasts they will follow. This is the current situation within the Stone Forest."

"Soon, the two factions of Holy Beasts and their followers will clash in an all-out battle to determine who claims the Stone Forest as their territory," Sha Yun continued, explaining as best she could with a faint smile, noticing her sisters’ faces betraying their shock.

"Yan Xiaobao never intended to join this battle, but something has happened, and now he’s planning to take a stand. He asked me to see if the two of you are willing to join us."

"Living among humans—has it made you as foolish as they are?!" Ice Bird shouted immediately after Sha Yun finished her sentence. "If we join such a battle, we might very well crush anyone who dares stand against us!"

Sha Yun smiled faintly and pulled out two cloaks, tossing them to her sisters. These cloaks were crafted for Yan Xiaobao by highly skilled enchanters. No aura could leak from within the cloaks, and while wearing them, no one could tell the two were magical creatures.

"Before the battle, you’ll stay in my new home," Sha Yun said excitedly. "During the battle, no one will be able to tell you’re beasts. Even if you choose to reveal yourselves, no one will be able to do anything about it. They’ll be far too occupied with trying to survive."

Sha Yun’s words were full of allure, and the snake woman could see her two sisters hesitating slightly. Ever since Sha Yun began describing the world outside, her two sisters had longed to see it for themselves, though their pride always held them back from stepping out.

For humans in the Magic Forest, hunting within their own territory was one thing, but leaving the forest would mean losing all the advantages they had built for themselves—not to mention missing out on the perfect hunting grounds teeming with magical creatures.

Watching her sisters who were close to agreeing, Sha Yun cheered inwardly, though her expression turned bashful. "I really want to show you where I live now," she said hesitantly, as though embarrassed to say it aloud.

Seeing their sister’s awkward look, Ice Bird and Shui Wu couldn’t help but glance at each other with grins before finally nodding. They both donned the enchanted cloaks gifted by Hui Yue.

Now that they had made their decision, a glint of excitement shone in their eyes. Even the usually stern and expressionless Ice Bird allowed a faint smile to grace her face.

That evening ended with Sha Yun and her companions sitting by the great lake that had once been a volcano. It was the tallest peak among the few mountains in the Magic Forest.

This place was also rarely visited by humans, as it belonged to the Forest King Old Snake.

"So, what’s the plan we’re supposed to follow?" Ice Bird asked finally, her impatience evident as she stared at the starry sky with her icy-blue eyes. Now that she had decided to join Sha Yun and go to her home, she could barely wait for them to set off.

On the other hand, Sha Yun knew that leaving at night with nothing prepared would come to no good. They couldn’t return to Liluo City once the gates were closed, and leaving two untamed magical creatures waiting outside the city walls overnight seemed far too risky.

She answered the question with a slow smile. "He calls it the Trojan Horse," she said, leaning forward and starting to trace small figures in the sand with her nails, using them to elaborate on what was to come.

Back in Liluo City, Yan Xiaobao spent most of his day attempting to connect to the Fire Element, but things hadn’t gone as smoothly as he had hoped. It was as if the connection between Hui Yue and the element was completely blocked. Yet strangely, he could still conjure sparks without any spells.

Lan Feng kept telling him this was normal—it was only because he had forced himself to bond with the Earth Element that he’d succeeded. Everything else would take patience.

However, patience was not Yan Xiaobao’s strong suit. He practiced Flame Sparks slowly until his spiritual energy sea was entirely depleted. Then he would sit down to meditate for hours, replenishing and refining more spiritual energy.

When Yan Xiaobao opened his eyes, he found himself somewhat startled to see the sky had gone dark. It was no longer the bright daylight from when he had begun converting Qi into spiritual energy—it was already late evening.

Glancing around, Yan Xiaobao couldn’t help but let out a sigh. The garden felt much larger than it had when Sha Yun wasn’t around. They had been apart for a few days now, separations that mainly occurred during her annual visits to the Magic Forest or when invitations came for events where magical creatures were not allowed.

Yet, the frequency of these separations had decreased year by year, and in the past two years, Hui Yu and Sha Yun had rarely spent more than a few hours apart. When Hui Yue realized he missed her presence during one such separation, it shocked him.

Yan Xiaobao chuckled as he stood up and walked to the kitchen. The cook had left a sumptuous meal on the table for the mansion’s master, and he ate with satisfaction. The house remained quiet, feeling far larger than it used to, now that no snake-women were rushing through doors, constantly chattering.

Lord Rong Liang sat in his office, staring at a Memory Stone that had arrived not long ago. It contained a very simple yet effective message.

A week earlier, Lord Rong Liang had sent a message to the Royal Family, warning them of the current situation in the city and requesting assistance in suppressing two scheming families. Rong Liang’s belief was that anyone challenging the City Lord of a major city was opposing the Royal Family’s decree, something he could not tolerate.

However, the message he received carried very straightforward instructions. "These two families are among the Hundred Great Names, their histories as old as our Kingdom. We cannot send soldiers to suppress these families unless they launch a full rebellion. Only then will we intervene."

Realizing the Royal Family would not intervene before the conflict erupted, Rong Liang could only grit his teeth and do everything in his power to come out victorious. Sitting with eyes closed for several minutes, Lord Rong Liang finally spoke through the wooden door. "Summon Huang!" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Elsewhere in Liluo City, Yan Xiaobao sat in his mansion’s stone garden. Sitting there, the boy emitted two visible auras—one representing Earth Elemental Affinity, the other Fire Elemental Affinity.

Though Yan Xiaobao initially found being alone strange, he had no intention of wasting effort on things beyond his control. Instead, he sat once more, meditating and contemplating the transformations between Earth and Fire he had been working on mastering.

Hui Yue had already forced his bond with the Earth Element to form, and while it was tempting to do the same with Fire, it wasn’t something he intended to attempt. Yan Xiaobao had a gut feeling telling him that forcing the Fire Element wasn’t a good idea. Fire was far more destructive, and synchronizing with Earth had already taken a significant toll on Hui Yue’s body.
