The Lord Of The Dragon Race
Section 23
It did not feel like they had been chatting for 1 hour, until it was time to start training. The disciples were jostling to get their own place so as to cause a little commotion.
" Please all calm down and start marching according to each group" said the elder.
They also lined up according to their group. Xiao An's group was on the far left in order of the highest ranking disciples.
Xiao An's group also became the first group to enter the forest.
" First group, please step forward" said the elder.
Then, Xiao An's group advanced.
"Who is the leader of your group?", said the elder.
Thus making them glance at each other which finally pointed at Xiao An .
"I want to ask you, are you and your group ready to survive in the forest of death?", asked the elder.
" We are ready elders" replied Xiao An .
" It's good, then, that you're responsible for making sure of their situation" said the elder.
" I'm sure they'll be fine" Xiao An said .
While in the 3rd row, someone grinned at the words Xiao An .
' heh, you think you can protect them, you yourself can't protect yourself. Just watch out for your inner Xiao An.
" Please begin your journey" said the elder as he opened the gate to the forest of death.
After that, Xiao An's group left as quickly as possible towards the first layer. After a while, another group followed.
Just as they were running, they had now reached the first layer. Among them were only 1 person who was already feeling tired from running quickly, who else if not Xiang Yu.
" Where are we going?", asked Zhu Feng.
" Now I want to ask, you guys want to get as many core stones as possible or not?", Xiao An asked back.
" Of course we want to get as many spirit beast core stones as possible, because some of the results will be ours and some will be handed over to the academy's shop" said Xun Er.
" But this will be a little tiring and also dangerous" said Xiao An who immediately extinguished their spirit.
" Aren't any of them a little safe?", said Xiang Yu.
" Where is anyone safe in the forest, you are!", said Zhu Qing.
" Anyways we have to take care of each other no matter what the circumstances" Xun Er said.
" You guys take it easy, here I am" Xiao An said slightly braggingly.
" It feels lazy to acknowledge your strength" said Xun Er lazily.
" Don't move!, Sttt.", Xiao An said .
" What is it?", said Zhu Feng.
" You better get your guns out now. Get ready! crazy bears are coming" Xiao An said .
" Eh, how do you know?", said Zhu Qing.
"you don't need to know about it" Xiao An said.
" What level is he at?", said Xun Er.
" He's at level 2" Xiao An said .
Suddenly the ground shook indicating the crazy bear was close to them.
" On the right!", cried Xiao An and they suddenly looked to the right.
Out came a large, sharp-toothed bear that growled with a body filled with wounds. One of his wounds was seen deep almost through his chest.
" Attack!", Xiao An said .
They also advanced to attack the crazy bear until the bear was dumbstruck and off guard. It was then that they launched a fatal attack in his area of weakness. Shortly after, the bear died and they searched for the core stone.
" The core stone is slightly larger than the other 2nd level" Xiao An said.
" You're right, this one is much bigger" said Xun Er.
" Maybe because crazy bears belong to the rank of the 200 strongest spirit beasts. So the core stone is bigger . His strength alone is already about the same as level 3" Zhu Feng said.
" What is it?", said Xiang Yu.
5 Arrows passed over them and were stuck in a tree .
" What the hell is this?", Zhu Feng said.
Suddenly a loud laughing voice came from in front of them.
" Ha ha ha ha, you're pretty smart too" said a man who appeared to be 20 years old with several other men behind him. They look like his bodyguards.
" Who are you?", Zhu Feng said in a less friendly tone.
" Huh?, I?, I was the one who made the wound on that bear. Now hand over the core stone to me!", said the arrogantly.
" Hey hey, we killed him. You can't take it" said Xun Er.
" Beautiful lady, do you know?, if I don't get her hurt, maybe you're the one who died by the bear" said the man.
It was true, if there was no Xiao An commanding them, they would definitely be the ones to die. Xun Er could no longer say a word and they were all silent for a while.
" Who said we'd die?, that's not necessarily. After all if you are strong, even if the bear attacks it must die" Xiao An said in a casual tone. His friend was nervous and a little scared.
" Heh, it seems that you underestimated me" said the man still with his arrogance.
" that's a fact and if you were strong, that bear would have died in your hand. But the reality is not" Xiao An said .
' maybe in the future, I really have to rely on it', inner colleague Xiao An simultaneously.
" I don't care. Quickly hand over the core stone!", he said angrily.
" We killed him and you just hurt him. You think you deserve it?", Xiao An said, raising his tone even more.
" Do you not know who I am?", said the man.
" You didn't mention it earlier" Xiao An said still casually.
" You guys will definitely bow down and apologize to me after knowing my identity. I am the young master of the Xu family who controls the central region. Hahaha", he said, then laughed.
" oh? The Xu Family?, Just a slightly large family alone was already arrogant. You don't know which family he and I are from?, if you know maybe you'll leave here soon or even kowtow and apologize as you said", said Xiao An .
" It's so arrogant of you!, you think you come from 5 big families?, Don't dream!", he said.
" Nah, that's you know. I am from the Luo nuclear family and she is from the Qin nuclear family" Xiao An said with a slight emphasis.
" Huh?, You!. It must be a lie, right?", he said slightly trembling.
" We come from 5 big families. If you don't believe me, look at this plaque!. You think this can be faked?, of course it can't. Huh!", said Xun Er growled.
" Huh, look at it!, one day I will make you suffer" said the man with glaring eyes as if it were coming out. And with a finger pointing towards Xiao An.
" Before you make me suffer, I will first wipe out all your families on this continent" Xiao An said, further sharpening his words. Instantly they goosebumps and then turn away leaving the group Xiao An .
They sighed violently, then rubbed their chest.
" It's a good thing that you are. Otherwise, maybe we'll be done" Xiang Yu said.
" This you, I'm scared to death to hear your sharp words as if ready to stab the opponent" Zhu Qing said.
"Have you always been this way?, What if he really did that?, Is it alright?", Zhu Feng said.
" You're asking a lot of questions!, I know very well with Xiao An. He won't lie with words he said. If that person tried to do that, surely Xiao An would do what he had said before" Xun Er said.
" Yes, you're right. I never play with my words" Xiao An said .
" At first I thought how can a tier 2 spirit beast exist in layer 1?. And it turned out that it was because he was being hunted by her", Xiao An continued .
" Yes, I think so too. It was impossible for there to be a spirit beast at layer 1. It should only be ordinary animals that are in the 1st layer" Zhu Feng said.
After that incident, they immediately rested from exhaustion against the crazy bear that was about to enter tier 3.
At that time Xiao An was just contemplating thinking about himself who was now living a life in a World that he did not know at all.
' why did I get here?, I was so confused. Only that question kept ringing in my head. Thank you to my father for teaching me various techniques and martial arts. If I can't defend myself, maybe I won't live here long.
I miss you so much dad, it's a pity that this Xiao An's father is so cruel to her. I was furious. Especially with the concubine and her two children.
But I've never seen his oldest son. Maybe one day I'll meet him . I heard, he was in Tian Lu' Academy, inner Xiao An . After that, Xiao An only let out a long sigh while looking at the clear sky that was now getting more and more daytime.
' oh yeah, what about my sister?, is she okay?, Is she living happily with auntie?, I don't know. I hope, I hope to see her soon, it's been a long time since my sister passed away. But it's a little different, he's my brother and also my brother. How does it feel to have an older brother huh?', inner Xiao An while smiling warmly.
