Chapter 201 Arrival in the Cultivation World
Chapter 201 Arrival in the Cultivation World
When Lin Shushu opened her eyes, she saw a pair of round, red eyes staring at her curiously. Startled by her awakening, the eyes immediately jumped away and ran off.
Watching the startled rabbit run away, Lin Shushu couldn't help but laugh out loud, thinking of how Mo Ze used to be.
By the way, where is Mo Ze?
She quickly sat up and looked around, but the movement was too abrupt, pulling at her wounds and causing her to gasp in pain. She then noticed that her clothes were stained with blood, and the wounds, which had been slightly scabbed over from neglect, had started bleeding again due to her agitation.
Ignoring all that, Lin Shushu stood up and cautiously surveyed her surroundings, while simultaneously using her divine sense to probe into the distance. Unfortunately, she did not find Mo Ze's figure, but she did manage to clearly see where she was.
This is a valley surrounded by towering, precipitous peaks, as if carved by nature's masterful hand. A crystal-clear stream flows gently through the valley, its waters shimmering in the sunlight and making a melodious sound.
Finding no potential danger, Lin Shushu relaxed and sat back down on the ground. This relaxation triggered a wave of pain throughout her body, especially on her bloodied and mangled hands, which were a horrifying sight with almost no intact parts.
Lin Shushu subconsciously took out a pill from her spatial storage and swallowed it. Watching the wound on her hand heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, she belatedly realized that her spatial storage was working again.
She remembered that when she was in the spatial rift, she lost contact with her own space, which prevented her from going in with Mo Ze to hide immediately. Now, she didn't know where Mo Ze had ended up.
After her exploration, she discovered that the spiritual energy here was abundant, so it must be a cultivation world. She wondered if Mo Ze had come here like her.
Thinking about it carefully, the possibility is quite high. When their tightly clasped hands were forced apart and she was swept away by a suction force, she saw Mo Ze chasing after her, and after that she had no memory of anything else.
The most important thing now is to find Mo Ze and see how he is doing. Thinking of the rabbit she saw when she opened her eyes, Lin Shushu felt a chill. Mo Ze was seriously injured, just like her. Could he be…?
She didn't believe that the rabbit she saw earlier was Mo Ze. Not only was she very familiar with Mo Ze's rabbit form, but even if he had changed his appearance, if it really was Mo Ze, he wouldn't have run away as soon as he saw her wake up.
After waiting for a while, her wounds had healed completely. Lin Shushu changed out of her bloodstained clothes, washed herself in the stream, took out her flying sword, and flew out of the valley.
She needs to find Mo Ze as soon as possible. As for the others, she'll lend a hand if she runs into them, but if they're not meant to be, then they'll have to fend for themselves.
Flying in the air, Lin Shushu sensed the wisps of spiritual energy and finally understood the obsession of the ancestors of the Olai Empire. Although the concentration of spiritual energy here could not compare to that in her own space, it was still something that ordinary people could only dream of.
Suddenly, a fluctuation of spiritual energy came from below. Lin Shushu initially didn't want to pay attention, as she was unfamiliar with the area and didn't want to cause trouble. But when she saw what was happening below, she stopped in her tracks.
In the forest below, a group of monsters were eyeing an infant child with predatory intent. Several people lay around the child, who appeared to be lifeless.
The leading monster sniffed the child, then opened its mouth wide. At the critical moment, a sword aura struck the monster's head.
Sensing danger, the demon beast tried to escape, but it was too late. Sword energy blocked its retreat. Before it could even see who had ruined its plans, it was decapitated and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the other demon beasts scattered and fled.
Lin Shushu floated down from the sky and stopped in front of the child. The child was about seven or eight months old, dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking quite extraordinary. At this moment, he was staring with his big, dark eyes open, waving his little hands in the air, completely unaware of what he had just experienced.
Not far from him, an old woman lay on the ground, her head and hands outstretched in his direction; clearly, the child had been thrown from her arms as she collapsed. Further away lay six people, all dressed identically, presumably the child's guards.
Looking at the innocent child, Lin Shushu was at a loss. She was new to the place and knew nothing about it. Who could she entrust the child to? Besides, she was in a hurry to find Mo Ze!
Why don't we wait here? Maybe his family is already on their way.
Unfortunately, Lin Shushu waited for a long time but didn't see anyone appear nearby. With darkness approaching, she had no choice but to continue her journey with her child.
Before leaving, Lin Shushu used her spiritual power to dig a large pit and placed the bodies of these people inside to prevent them from being eaten by demonic beasts. After thinking for a moment, she left a piece of the old woman's clothing outside before covering it with soil.
After doing all this, Lin Shushu picked up the child. Surprisingly, he wasn't shy at all and even gave her a toothless smile. His obedient appearance softened Lin Shushu's heart.
Holding the child to her chest, creating a protective shield, Lin Shushu once again flew on her sword.
Soon, a city came into view, and Lin Shushu stopped two miles from the city gate. As far as she knew, cities in the cultivation world usually had flight restrictions. Since she was new to this place and didn't know anything about it, it was best to be cautious.
Among the crowd queuing to enter the city, Lin Shushu stood out. Her demeanor was extraordinary, yet she was alone, holding a child, which seemed somewhat illogical.
However, the crowd's attention was soon drawn to a group of people emerging from the city gate.
"Those must be people from the City Lord's Mansion. Where are they rushing off to?"
"Something serious must have happened. Didn't you see the young city lord is inside too?"
"You don't even need to tell me that, anyone could see it!"
"Then tell me what happened?"
People in the crowd were talking quietly.
Lin Shushu glanced at it once and then looked away. At this moment, she didn't think the City Lord's Mansion had anything to do with her.
As the city lord's men left, the process of entering the city quickened. After paying the entrance fee of two low-grade spirit stones, she entered the city called Linyang.
Looking around, the wide main street was lined with shops and had a dazzling array of signs, giving Lin Shushu a feeling of having traveled back to ancient times.
She had no interest in seeing anything unusual, because the child in her arms was restless; Lin Shushu guessed he was probably hungry. After asking passersby for directions, she found an inn to stay at.
After closing the door, Lin Shushu looked at the child in her arms with some annoyance. What should she feed him? He probably hadn't been weaned yet!
Weaning...
Yes, there are many small animals in the space, and maybe some of them have just given birth.
She probed the space with her divine sense and indeed found a mother deer with her calf in the forest.
After all that fuss, and once the child was fed and asleep, Lin Shushu finally had time to think about what to do next.
Where should she look for Mo Ze?
