Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Dazzling Aura

"It's beautiful!"

In the white snow, a beautiful silhouette of a young lady.

He was sure he had never seen such a beautiful silhouette before. He could have watched it all night if he hadn't been in danger.

Who was it?

The girl holds a golden rope with the other end wrapped around the neck of the rhino as if she was walking around the rhino.

So strong....

"Oh no...watch out! There are monsters out there again!"

When he saw two groups of shadows coming out of the woods, Mu Tianxun warned loudly.

"You should run, I'll be fine."

The girl's sweet voice came, and Mu Tianxun was amazed: "Run? Running? Run!"

With a slight hesitation he pulled his legs out and ran, shouting, "You have to be careful!"

Ouch....

Roar!

Mu Tianxun ran out not too far away, and he was caught by a demon beast, a huge headbutt. He flew out again, a side roll on the way, quickly got up and ran again, as a girl swept over.

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

When they saw each other, they looked so familiar to each other and spoke at the same time.

"Thank you!"

With a quick glance at the girl, Mu Tianxun's face turned red and he thanked her sideways and continued to run forward.

The young girl's name is Shui Rou, about the same age as him, has a baby face, and when she smiles lightly, her lips ripple with two small dimples, sweet and lovely.

Sweeping a glance at Mu Tianxun's wretched figure Shui Rou smiled and waved her hand. A golden sword was added in her hand and cut out. The golden sword bounced back with a puff sound as Shui Rou froze. With a flick of the wrist, the golden sword drew an arc and stabbed the beast in a straight line in the left eye. The beast's eyes closed and its head snapped downwards, the tip of the sword hitting the top of the beast's head and penetrating no more than two inches.

Ow!

A roar came from the rhinoceros beast that ran towards Shui Rou and found the fleeing Mu Tianxun and turned towards him. Shui Rou's eyebrows raised. Swiftly sweeping out two swords to force the beast to retreat, she swept up behind Mu Tianxun and kicked the rhinoceros in the head.

Mu Tianxun avoided a takedown and looked back at Shui Rou. With a hot face and two feet, he continued to run. There was a mountain slope ahead of them, with the protection of the snow, they could have a chance to roll down the slope.

The dream was there but the beast didn't want him to catch it. A beast chased after him and slapped him away, its huge form bouncing off the ground and biting him.

Seeing that he was about to become food for the demon beast again, at the moment of crisis, a flying sword shot through the night at the demon beast. The demon beast was attacked by surprise and rolled to the ground, and Mu Tianxun tried to get up and then run.

"This...this is a dead end!"

At the bottom of the slope a few shadows were rushing madly upwards, he turned around with a glare and ran towards Shui Rou.

Shui Rou also saw the demon beast and her face changed slightly.

"Then find a way to escape. I can't do it on my own."

Shui Rou had already consumed quite a bit of Yuan energy against the three giant beasts, and now that there were a few more, it was difficult to get away with Mu Tianxun.

Mu Tianxun also understands that these beasts are extremely powerful and the damage that Shui Rou can do to them is negligible and it is completely impossible for her to escape by herself alone.

"You go first, I was meant to die."

The King of Hell wanted me to die at three o'clock... but he could delay until five o'clock at most... and if he was going to die, he would die like a man in front of the goddess.

In his mind, as he thought, Mu Tianxun jumped and rushed in front of Shui Rou to pounce towards a demon beast.

"Really..."

Shui Rou soft eyebrows flickered and the slender body glanced forward and holding him by the hand and swiping towards the city.

After a short sweep, the beasts caught up with them.

"Whoever you are, run first. I'll block them."

With a casual throw of Shui Ruo, Mu Tianxun flew out and rolled a good long way to climb up and run forward.

Free of her hands, Shui Ruo killed the beasts and came to Mu Tianxun's back with a few leaps, grabbing him and continuing to swipe. After about four or five miles, the beasts caught up with her when she was completely exhausted. Obviously, it was impossible to take Mu Tianxun away.

Naturally, Mu Tianxun noticed this and slanted a glance at the beasts in pursuit of them, leaving the goddess reluctantly and turning towards the beasts.

Shuirou stretched out her hand to grab him, but finally drew back.

"The cold wind is blowing, then who goes away..."

Shui Rou's nose was sore and blinked her soulful eyes at the blurred shadow turning back and flashing away.

"Thank you! Shui Rou!"

Mu Tianxun ran a few steps and found Shuirou leaving. With a whisper, he turned around quickly and ran down the hill with all the strength he could muster.

Down the hill, he rolled and rolled faster, but the monsters were even faster, and in the blink of an eye, several of them rushed in front of him, folding back and glaring at him.

"Demon, beast, come on, bite me, come on..."

After tossing and turning for most of the night, with no sign of his dad or sister, he was going to die, and at this point, he felt incredibly sad and angry.

But what could he do but shout and scream!

The beasts seemed to understand his shout and were not going to torment him anymore. One by one, they bared their teeth and jumped at him.

This time, Mu Tianxun didn't have the awareness to die and he desperately darted backwards.

Several beasts attacked their prey at the same time, the prey was too slow and the beasts were too fast, several beasts crashed together but the prey was still bitten in the leg by one of them.

With a howl Mu Tianxun fell to the ground. The beasts seemed to be shaken by his howl as they retreated. He crawled forward a few steps and found that there was no movement and then looked back. The expression on his face wasn't any better than that of the beasts.

Above him a golden colored demon beast that didn't look like a dragon or a phoenix was floating in the air. The two eyes glowed blue, and after closer inspection, there were two small wings on the back of the beast, yes, two very small wings.

Mu Tianxun had no time to think about the small wings and the big figure. The reason a demon was a demon must be special. If he could survive and become strong, he could catch them and study them, but right now... right now he was going to die.

"My legs!"

Mu Tianxun rolls over and starts to get up. He jumped a few times when he realized that his leg was fine. With joy still on his face, a ball of fire fell from the sky.

He dodged with all his might, but the fireball still hit him in the right shoulder.

Lying in the snow with the pain and patting out the sparks on his clothes, he slowly looked up at the little winged flying dragon.

The little winged flying dragon was expressionless, his glowing eyes like two searchlights, making him dizzy. And to his despair, another ball of fire appeared in the little winged flying dragon's mouth.

Mu Tianxun tried to stand up, there was a tearing pain in his shoulder, he struggled a few times and gave up... death was going to trip after all wasn't it.

"Goodbye mom and dad, goodbye Qianxue, thank you for taking care of me, if I live another life, I'll..."

The fireball was shooting at him like a meteor....

"Brother Tianxun..."

There was a crisp sound as a figure crashed into the fireball.

"Don't!"

Hearing his sister's voice, Mu Tianxun cried out.

Bang!

His sister was bounced off as the fireball flew past his head.

"Qianxue!"

Mu Tianxun looked overwhelmed with grief and joy, shouting and lunging at his sister.

"Tianxun... brother, run!"

"Qianxue, are you okay? Does it hurt?"

Mu Tianxun sought to crawl to his sister's side and help her lean against himself, his heart aching for her.

That was the first time Mu Qianxue leaned so close to her brother, her small eyes looked shy, her white and delicate face blushing slightly as she lowered her head and asked softly: "Brother Tianxun, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine. How about you? Are you hurt?"

"It's okay, but...cough..."

When his sister coughed a few times, Mu Tianxun clumsily helped her by patting her back. He founded that his shoulder didn't seem to hurt as much, he shrugged it off, it was much better.

The image of being swatted away by the beast flashed quickly in his mind. Then, he frowned and looked puzzled.

"Brother Tianxun, I can't gather any energy. Find a way to escape."

Mu Qianxue tried to gather energy. It was fine, but the condensed ice energy scattered and shocked her veins. She would be able to recover after a period of rest, but the demon beast wouldn't give her time.

"Qianxue , I'm not running, I'm staying with you."

"Tianxun...watch out!"

A fireball flew as Mu Qianxue cried out and threw herself at the top of Mu Tianxun, and then, the fireball hit her back.

"Tianxun...

brother...

we...

we're going to die...

I'm sorry..."

Straining to say a few words, Mu Qianxue fainted.

When he tried to Shake his sister, who was protecting him, there was no reaction. Mu Tianxun was mad, really mad.

Up in the sky, at some point, there were two more demons. And in the mouth of the small winged flying dragon, another ball of fire was forming.

Picking his sister up and placing her gently on the snow, Mu Tianxun slowly stood up and took two steps forward, spreading his arms to protect his sister, his blood red eyes staring at the little winged flying dragon.

"Dead Dragon Demon, I'm not afraid of you, spit it out, all of it, as much as you can..."

The small winged flying dragon's small wings quickly spread, its huge body moved back a few meters, its flat, triangular head shrank and extended, and a huge ball of fire smashed into Mu Tianxun.

Ha!

Mu Tianxun's mouth let out a long scream that cut through the night and resounded straight through the sky.

Bang!

Then there was a loud bang as a huge fireball hit him in the chest, and without any surprise, he was smashed out of the air, taking the ball with him and disappearing.

The little winged dragons moved to the top of the pit and looked down into it. The other two, one left, one right, were floating behind. A few beasts on the ground came around and looked into the pit with their big heads sticking out.

"Go to hell..."

A violent shout came from the pit, and a huge fireball meteorically cut through the darkness and shot into the night sky. The small winged flying dragon reared back fast, but was still half a beat too slow, and the fireball hit it in the stomach.

Roar!

The small winged flying dragon, that was heavily injured by the fireball of its own, let out a berserk roar. The small wings flared into two giant feathers flying into the night sky.

The other beasts were surprised by the sudden turn of events and turned into wood demons. They saw another fireball in the pit, regained consciousness and fled.

Mu Tianxun came out of the pit with his hands on his head. His body was covered with a thick aura of colorful light that looked very bright in the snowy night.

The aura dissipated as he ran to kneel beside Mu Qianxue. His ten fingers still pinched his head tightly, his face twisted in an unusually painful way. It looked like something was wrong with his head.

"Qianxue, you can't die, you won't die! you won't..."

Slowing down, Tianxun shouted and picked up his sister and raced off into the city.
