The Great Oishi Zu's
Foggy Grassland

Xiu Xin stared at the dense fog with doubt. What is in this deep fog? He wasn't sure it would be safe for a few days past this place.

"Are you sure you're gonna get through this place?" Asked Yuan Gang scared.

Honestly, he never thought the meadow was surrounded by a thick speed. If they were to scatter themselves into the mist that greeted them was only a dense darkness and something unexpected.

"Fire doesn't work either." Cun Myung brought out the fire element in his hand.

The darkness was too thick, the fog was also thick. Plus it was already midnight making them gulp because of the fear that was approaching their hearts.

"It's okay."Val opened his clenched hand.

Sparks of light appeared above his palms and flew over them. Then floating above, the fog around them disappeared.

"It's amazing, I'm not afraid anymore."Xiu Xin said happily.

Hong Li who had been silent earlier could only sigh in relief, they began to enter the foggy grassland area. Several times their steps came to a halt due to encountering many magic plants.

Val also retracted many magic plants, the current storage of Zhu Rey was already unloaded. It made the young man refuse to enter the magic plant.

"No way."

"This one is all, huh? Look Rey it's so rare we won't find any foggy grass to make a smoke bomb that's more concentrated than a regular smoke bomb." Val.

"Why don't you keep it in the bells? Don't bother me, the herbs from Auntie Su just haven't been spent yet."Reject Zhu Rey raw.

Val sighed he actually did not know how to store items in his favorite bell, who would have thought the bell had a function that he liked.

The plant in Val's hand disappeared, the bell seemed to have its own will not want to be told. Val thinks these bells have a soul.

"Look at this, I've never seen a plant like this." Hong Li showed a plant that was no stranger to Val.

"That's. kitchen spice plants."Val looked at Hong Li ashen.

"Eh? I don't know that."

Hong Li scratched his non-itchy head, Xiu Xin retracted the plant as seen some of the fruit the plant produced at its roots.

"It's ginger, when you didn't know Hong Li? I've never been to the kitchen know the name and form of kitchen spices." Lecar Xiu Xin was annoyed.

Even though he never stepped foot in the kitchen, but for the sake of being able to survive outside if his family kicked him out. At least he knows how to cook food and survive well.

Cun Myung laughed amusedly as he realized the stupidity of his friend."You just don't know!"

"Shut your mouth, you only know practicing a sword without a teacher with his moron you're hurt like a fool." Cetus Hong Li managed to eliminate Cun Myung's laughter.

"Ha-ha-ha... All right, I admit it."Cun Myung cleared a little.

"Friends look at that."Zhu Rey pointed at the stone wall.

"Eh? There's a cliff."Xiu Xin tried to touch the wall.

But Val brusquely brushed off Xiu Xin's hand using ginger leaves.

"Don't touch anything." Val says seriously.

"We're trying to walk south who knows if there's a cave."Zhu Rey's Proposal.

Because their lighting was not so adequate, only around them with a narrow range inevitably they accepted Zhu Rey's proposal.Walk slowly, but all they found was a waterfall.

"It just so happens that I'm thirsty." Cun Myung directly took the water from the river near the waterfall.

Suddenly, a giant fish opened its mouth under the hand of Cun Myung.

"Mhh ...." Cun Myung's reflexes pulled his hand back.

The fish that almost bit his hand jumped to the surface. Making Val, Xiu Xin, Yuan Gang and Zhu Rey shocked to death.

"That's a fish monster like the hills where Ji Xuan lives."Zhu Rey took out her spirit net.

Then throwing his river depths, dozens of predatory fish appeared on the surface. Xiu Xin who saw fear was half dead. With his leisure Val took one monster fish turned out to be bigger than he thought.

"This fish has enough food to make his body big."

"Va-val beware the fish is dangerous." Yuan Gang was about to pull Val.

But the little girl brushed her hand away."Don't worry they won't bite."

"You take one tail each, I can't tame them for 30 minutes." Zhu Rey.

Inevitably Cun Myung helps Val take the monster fish, Yuan Gang who had been reluctant to immediately help.

"I... All right I'll take it too."

After picking up the fish according to the number of people, Zhu Rey asked them to stay away from the riverbank. He pulled back his spirit net. The monster fish jumped ferociously. Some went back into the water, some of them stalked Zhu Rey as if to say Zhu Rey was their prey.

"Wew..gruesome, next time I won't be careless." Cun Myung rubbed his sweat-filled nape.

"Let's let Val cook all these fish." Val said excitedly.

"No, let's all cook it together." Rejecting Yuan Gang, he wasn't sure Val could cook.

"Here, the equipment is inside here" Zhu Rey removed the ring.

Then pin it on Val's ring finger, "It'd be better if you put it on, because I feel like it's useless."

"Wahh... Thanks Rey." Val jumps for joy.

She hugged Zhu Rey tightly, not expecting Zhu Rey to give her a ring containing her cooking ingredients, herbs, favorite foods, as well as Devil seeds.

"Don't be happy first, you can't use all the herbs and things at will." Cetus Zhu Rey cold.

The young man knew Val would use him out of curiosity. He smiled in satisfaction as he looked at Val's expression that did not look good.

"We really don't want you to do it yourself." Xiu Xin said softly.

Val who heard her could only nod small, but in the end she was not allowed to join the roasting of the fish and could only eat it without doing anything useful.

"It sucks." Cibir Val when the roasted fish is in the hand.

"Just enjoy." Reply Zhu Rey.

The fog got thicker, finished dinner they decided to sleep in the open because they did not find a cave near the waterfall. Then the thick fog made their movements limited.

Zhu Rey looked at Val irritatedly, why does the girl always not want to stay away from him while sleeping?! Zhu Rey also wanted to sleep on her own perfectly comfortably with no legs kicking her, nor was she free to move.

"Val, can you sleep with your own folding mattress?"

"Wmwmgroookk...."

Zhu Rey's face was flushed red she held back her anger. Even if he was running amok it would be useless. How could a great dragon like himself be angry just because of a small and weak human like Val?

Val's slitting voice rang out again, making Zhu Rey remember Val had never snored before. Is Val possessed by that figure?

"Ah? Val's sleeping." Xiu Xin looked disappointed.

Though she is eager to sleep with Val, the little girl reminds herself of the doll she always hugs while sleeping.

"You want to sleep with her? I want to sleep alone." Zhu Rey put away the blanket.

He immediately moved to Xiu Xin's bed, then pretended to be fast asleep.

"Eh?... Yes, that's it." Xiu Xin smiled she immediately slept beside Val and hugged Val tightly.

Unbeknownst to them, he sets his eyes on them. Black clothes covered by a robe. Their faces are covered with skin masks.

"That's them, are we taking them both now?"

"I'm afraid we're wrong."

"But, the aura of the boy is undeniable."

One of them sprinkled the powder, within seconds the sound of a loud snoring was earthy. The two of them moved quickly and stopped in front of Zhu Rey.

"Actually we only need this child, the girl doesn't need to when I approach it turns out she doesn't have that aura."

"It's up to you, the important thing is that we complete this task as soon as possible."

One of them was about to touch Zhu Rey However, a monstrous hand full of shiny black scales and sharp hooves prevented it.

"You think I don't know your presence huh?!"

"Wild cat, stray dog." Ejek Zhu Rey's.

They both had the same aura that he felt when he first entered into this dimension.

"You're really great, you can't be affected by my flagship sleeper powder."

Zhu Rey smiled sinisterly." Sit down, I don't want to fight."

They both looked at Zhu Rey confused."You're not afraid of us?"

"No, explain your purpose why do you want to take me away?"

They both looked at each other for a moment."We have no right to explain this to you, we only have the mission to bring you before our Master."

"Who would dare to take Val's beloved brother away?" A cute voice sounded from behind the two of them.

It just so happened that they were currently squatting in front of Zhu Rey. But aren't all the children sleeping except Zhu Rey?

"Who are you two?" Zhu Rey asked coldly.

"You how could you dare to speak without the slightest fear."

"Indeed I should be afraid of lowly spirit beasts like you?"

"Eh? Are you from an elite spirit clan?" Val asked curiously.

Val saw a unique seal mark inside their bodies. Zhu Rey glared in disbelief why did she just realize it?

"Uncle, please explain to both of us why you want to take my brother away?"

"What are we explaining to you? In the end you rebelled."

"So you said your master wanted to see me, I'll come." Zhu Rey said excitedly.

"Are you not kidding me?" Ask them not to believe.

"Of course!"

Zhu Rey had to meet the clan head of the elite spirit beast. There's something he wants to do this is related to his father.

"Rey, they just took you away, you want me to be left here alone?" Val asked disappointed.

"Here you're not alone, there they are." Zhu Rey pointed at her classmates.

"No want! Anyway I have to come! We are a package! If you're booked then I'll also come as a companion of order." Val looked at Zhu Rey angrily.

Zhu Rey bit her lip, at this time Val instead used her mask as a cute and submissive little boy. But a stubborn little boy.

"All right."

Val threw out his wind knife throwing his indiscretions. He immediately jumped towards Zhu Rey, with Zhu Rey's flat face catching Val. That girl is really childish.

"You happy Val?"

"Yes!" Nod Val.

Seeing the puzzling behavior of the two children, the envoys from the elite spirit clan could only sigh to them.

"You look so excited, we're not leaving now anyway."

Val and Zhu Rey's mouths gaped wide upon hearing her.

"Why?!" Both of them did not accept.

They were disappointed, Val thought he could gain a rare experience from his life to be able to meet with an elite spirit clan. Other than Zhu Yan and Alyosh, while Zhu Rey was thinking of asking the Clan chief for help in order to meet her father.

"The teleportation gate can't be opened here."

"We had to sneak in first to keep an eye on you guys first."

"It's disappointing,"Val healed his face behind Zhu Rey's shoulder.

"It's okay at least we don't abandon our friends." Zhu Rey rubbed Val's back gently.

"Son, tell me your names."

Val who heard him turned his head immediately."No, my mom says we can't tell our names to strangers who haven't introduced themselves."

The two envoys laughed at Val's innocence." Alright."

One of them flicked his hood, revealing a pair of tiger-shaped ears."My name is Ang Bei"

"Appearance and name don't match."Scornful Val looks at Ang Bei's stern face.

The name means high and shining spirit. But the eyes of the adult man in front of him were not excited. Seeing Val's response who disliked his name Ang Bei was speechless.

"I'm Dun Ming." The radiant face from behind the mask with silver wolf ears seemed adorable.

"That fits his name perfectly." Val held out her hand.

It was with pleasure that Dun Ming shook Val's tiny hand."How can you be so chatty,"

"If it wasn't so, Val sure uncle would be bored."Reply Val with a wide grin.

"Sorry he's like that."Said Zhu Rey with a flat face.

Ang Bei stared at Val at a glance, Val's way of speaking was always changing like having two personalities. He wanted to ask but it was disrespectful. Isn't Val still a kid? Young children often imitate adult behavior, perhaps it's emulated from the people around Val.

"It's okay, will you make a deal with us?" Ask Ang Bei.

"covenant? What kind of deal do you want to offer?"Zhu Rey looked at Ang bei suspiciously.

"No need to be suspicious, we just want you to see the moon clan chief tomorrow."Ang Bei said seriously.

"You're not afraid the Clan Chief will be furious."

Ang Bei leaned slightly forward and whispered to Zhu Rey."We still want to live in the human world, this world is interesting just a month how?"

"Val agrees!" Val served Ang Bei forcibly.

Ang Bei was surprised when he used a whisper technique, just now he did not open his mouth at all.

"Val you can't interrupt another's conversation it's rude, haven't you been so respectful of decency." Zhu Rey pulled Val to remain sitting quietly beside her.

"Sorry Val is so excited, then Val will just go to sleep and then Rey can't leave Val because Rey has promised Val."Sibir Val, he immediately enveloped himself and fell asleep beside Zhu Rey.

"I agree with the offer but there are conditions."

"What's that?" Dun Ming looked at Zhu Rey curiously.

"Before I say that, I want to ask you both."

"Do you know who we are?"

Ang Bei and Dun Ming looked at each other and answered the question.

"You are a spirit born with disaster."

Zhu Rey's face was bending."Don't joke,"

"The Clan Chief said so."Dun Ming pointed his index finger.

"Every Spirit born has its own uniqueness, they are each born from the power of the natural masters."

"Then you were born with an unusual power, tens of thousands of decades there has not been a spirit born with absolute strength let alone having the potential to become a supreme existence."

"But it's just a prophecy covered in fog."Ang Bei was serious.

Zhu Rey was speechless she was unwilling to believe, if she became a supreme existence it was a great disaster. Being the highest existence among spirits then it would make him one of the natural rulers in star mythology.

What kind of joke was Ang Bei and Dun Ming talking about? Do they just want to please Zhu Rey? But what are the goals of both of them.

"I'm going to sleep, you guys if you want to join me follow me secretly I don't want my friends to be suspicious."Zhu Rey said before covering her body in a blanket.

"You don't have to worry we can take care of ourselves."

Zhu Rey immediately put herself to sleep, despite the interference from Val she had to stay asleep for the next day. There are a lot of questions about himself.

Zhu Rey had read a book about spirit beasts in Emperor Zu's palace library. The question is now, why himself when hatching is already in the form of a human body? Whether he was a crippled spirit beast, or there was another uniqueness in him.

"Am I disabled?" Zhu Rey asked as she looked at Val.

Hope the figure hiding inside Val's body answers him.

"I'm not perfect because I have mixed blood."

"Why are you putting yourself down, son?"

Zhu Rey opened her eyes, looking at the sleeping Val. It turns out his mother just whispered to herself without taking over Val's body.

"The girl beside you doesn't humble herself, even though she has the same body as you she remains herself."

"Son, this world is not perfect as you think, if you feel inferior because your destiny is better to die, because I don't want to have a child who won't accept his fate."

"I know, I just want to know if I'm really as deformed as those ugly birds mocked me." Zhu Rey remembered something.

Although in the process of forming his body but, God has made himself have consciousness. Give the sense of hearing and give understanding of language to him. He knew his mother's clan hated him as well as his father.

"Why is mom against destiny? Don't you think what you're doing will make my life as unhappy as other spirit beasts."

"..."

"Son, are you happy now? Answer it honestly."

"I'm..." Zhu Rey could not answer.

She feels something tickle her heart every day, it keeps happening over and over again as Val comes into her life.

"You're happy, I've been watching you grow up with this kid." The baritone voice again whispered to Zhu Rey.

"Don't you think every deficiency will be covered by something else? Just like Zhu Val, he came to complete the imperfections of your life."

Her mother wasn't entirely right, Zhu Rey didn't always have that feeling. He decided to end the conversation. Choosing to drown himself in a dream.
