Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 318: Hunt Family (2)

*swish*

A sharp voice originated as the coin sliced the air. It drew a linear trajectory towards the young man and passed him by. It shot further forward and embedded on the carriage.

*thwack*

The sound was dull and thin but the coin had gone halfway into the wood. The chauffeur almost screamed in horror as he saw the monstrosity of Lee Shen.

The young man who had the pride smirk was now pale. He raised his trembling hands and touched his left cheek.

Something fluid could be felt by his fingertips. The liquid texture was thick and a faint scent of blood entered his nostrils.

"Take that gold and learn to behave."

Among the silence, Lee Shen's words sounded exceedingly majestic. The voice pulled the young man from the trance of fear. He raised his eyes and saw the wyvern flapping its wings.

Aero was airborne and his brothers followed. Zena flew close to Aero like a guard protecting the client.

The young mistress of the Hunt family had frozen with a pale complexion. She was speechless for quite a while. Her throat was dry and no words came out.

The young man got his resolve back and clenched his fist. The trail of blood on his cheek was thin but it was enough to symbolise his defeat.

When the chauffeur was confused about what to do, the young man turned around and stormed into the carriage. Following him, the young mistress of the Hunt family walked inside.

"To the mansion."

The youngster shouted in anger while the chauffeur had already jumped back on the carriage. He whipped the rein and the wolves dashed forth. The carriage darted like wind and disappeared.

"Let's rest over there."

While flying, Lee Shen pointed at a pasture and spoke. The short green grass on the pasture was refreshing to behold and a few cattle were roaming here and there.

Following Lee's directions, Aero flew low and landed on the ground. The breeze that brushes the party was mind-soothing and washed all the mental tensions away.

The pasture was at the southern end of the island. Beyond the pasture, were dangerous cliffs. The elevation of the ground was at least a few ten metres from the sea level and the place was most appropriate for relaxing.

When the colossal beasts descended, the battles scattered away in fear. Some were thrown off their feet as the Draconic Wyverns flapped their wings vigorously.

Lee leapt from Aero's back and landed with a soft thud. Quickly scanning the surroundings, he caught sight of a few humans and orcs observing them from a distance. Since Hudson found them harmless, Lee did not bother them.

At the edge of one cliff was a tree with beautiful aquamarine leaves. The flawless symmetrical shape adorned by the beautiful complexion made the leaves resemble leaf-shaped glass pieces.

Lee found the place exceedingly beautiful. The ground where the tree was, was slightly more elevated than the surroundings. The clear blue sky devoid of clouds were indescribably glamorous. The serenity of the ocean and the chaotic collision of the waves to the rocks beneath them pulled him into a trance.

Lee Shen felt his body moving on its own as he sat cross-legged on the ground. As soon as he straightened his spine, a wave of bliss exploded in his mind.

The Perrafin and the three Draconic Wyverns felt an aura of tranquillity around him and did not step forward. They observed him settling down on the ground with eyes closed and palms resting on his knees.

"Huff...."

Letting out a mouthful of air, Lee Shen felt something nurturing his soul. He did not bother to probe and savoured the sensation.

The trio tiptoed away from Lee. They kept a decent distance between them and him so that he gets to meditate in peace.

Perrafin wanted to lay down and snore for the rest of the day but she saw Aero standing erect with caution. Turning in the direction, she felt something ominous heading their way.

Goblins and elves were living nearby and they saw the beasts descending on the pasture. Initially, they were afraid that they would hurt the battles. But their fear turned out to be vain as Perrafin tried to befriend the battles that approached her with curiosity.

A shepherd from the orc race noticed the trembling of the ground. He saw a couple of carriages and beasts heading towards Lee Shen as a convoy.

[Trouble found us.]

The familiar designs on the carriages were a dead giveaway as Zena turned to Lee and purred. Taking the signal, Lee Shen slowly got up and walked away from the tree.

With gentle steps, Lee Shen neared the Perrafin and his fingers touched Zena's forehead. At the moment, a tingling sensation originated from her forehead and travelled throughout her body.

Zena was stunned by this occurrence as froze there. Lee continued to run his fingers through the back of her neck and towards her spine and continued to the tail.

After Lee Shen passed by, the Perrafin took a second to recover from the sensation. The feeling of tiny harmless electrical impulses touring through the winged beast's physique was refreshing for an unknown reason.

Hands came to his side and rested relaxedly as Lee Shen raised his eyes and glanced at the carriages.

[I can feel the presence of both adventures and cultivators.]

When D spoke, Lee was wondering what had made him uneasy for the past few seconds. But after finding the reason, he was relaxed and the sword jumped out of the spatial ring and into his palm.

The carriages halted aggressively and one of the carriage doors was gently opened from the inside. A figure stepped out as the well-decorated piece of wood skimmed through the air.

The tall lean figure had a crooked smug on his face as he steadied his jacket. Turning to Lee, the man greeted a good day and his accomplices leapt out of the carriages and from the back of the beasts.
