It was already nighttime, the moon was fully displayed. The sky was filled with stars. Near the waterfall, yellow lights, the size of the dot, were rising slowly, they covered the whole waterfall. The water of the lake was shining with the light of the moon.
Two people, a man, and a woman were standing near the waterfall, in a garden, watching and appreciating the scene. And the flowers of the garden were flowing with the wind. And the sounds of cicadas were in the air. The scene was extremely beautiful, and it could make one forget about his problems.
"How beautiful, it's really spectacular, I've never seen such a scene before," the woman said, she was dressed in green clothes, her hair extended to her shoulder, the color of her eyes was black, and she had a perfect curvy body. Right now, she was looking extremely beautiful and graceful, just like a fairy.
"Didn't I say that you'll be able to see something even more amazing if you wait until night?" The man standing near her said.
They were Cho Byeol and Yang Zhai.
Right now, Yang Zhai was standing near Cho Byeol. When he turned his head to see Cho Byeol, he was surprised to see Cho Byeol, right now, she looked like a fairy to him. If he hadn't known about her, he might have believed that she was a fairy.
"What are these yellow lights?" Yang Zhai was in a daze when he was suddenly jolted awake by Cho Byeol's voice.
"Oh, they are rank 1 beasts. They are known as Yellow moonlights because they come out in the light of the moon, you can't capture them because they die with a slight touch" Yang Zhai said while looking at the dot-like yellow lights.
He had long wanted to capture some for his cave. But when he tried to capture them, they died with a slight touch. And he discovered to his disappointment that the yellow moonlights required moonlight to continue living.
"Oh, why would someone want to capture them and destroy such remarkable scenery? It must be some kind of psychopath and a fool," Cho Byeol said while looking at Yang Zahi as if she was expecting the same answer from Yang Zhai.
Yang Zhai: "..."
When Yang Zhai heard this, he almost wanted to vomit blood: What the hell.
"Yeah, you're right, that person must be some kind of psychopath," Yang Zhai said, while not looking at Cho Byeol. He was really speechless right now.
"Anyway, forget about that and tell me, should we go back to the cave?" Yang Zhai changed the topic and said,
It was already too late, he wanted to go back as soon as possible. Because it was already time for the rank 5 beast to come out. That was also the reason for him to not come out to see this scene every night.
"Can we stay here for a while more? Who knows if I would be able to see this again," Cho Byeol asked, hoping to stay here for a while more.
"No, it's dangerous to stay here. We need to return back to the cave as soon as possible," Yang Zhai said with a serious expression. He wanted to go back to the cave as soon as possible.
"Please, just a little while more, please, please, please," Cho Byeol said with pleading eyes.
When Yang Zhai saw the look in her eyes, he had a strange expression. In the end, he couldn't help but heave a long sigh and say,
"Alright, we can stay for a little while more,"
"Thank you," Cho Byeol said with a smile on her face. With that said, she turned her head to look at the waterfall.
…..
After two to three hours,
Yang Zhai was sitting near the lake with Cho Byeol. She was already asleep, her face resting on Yang Zhai's shoulder. When Yang Zhai saw her sleeping so peacefully without any worry, he didn't wake her. Right now, he was reminiscing about something before his transmigration into this body
…..
"Hey, Yang Lee, what do you think about these flowers, don't they look good on me?" a girl wearing a red and pink color flower chaplet asked a man sitting near her. Her face was not clearly visible
"Yeah, they look beautiful," the man replied.
"I know they are beautiful, tell me how I'm looking?" The girl wearing the chaplet asked the man
"Didn't I say, they're looking beautiful because you're wearing them," The man answered.
…..
"Why do you need to leave alone? I can come with you as well," a man asked the woman standing in front of her.
"No, you can't, you know that the clan needs you here and the clan master also ordered me to go alone," the girl replied, directly rejecting the man.
"But, if you go, you might not be able to see me again. I'm sure someone is plotting against me" the man said to the girl.
"You're just imagining it, nobody is plotting against you, nothing will happen to you," the girl replied.
"Just because you heard some rumors, you started doubting me and also started to keep your distance from me. Believe me, whatever you heard or saw was not the reality" the man said with a sad expression on his face.
"I didn't believe others, nor do I believe you. Anyway, nothing is going to happen to you. I know our clan very clearly" the girl said with a cold expression. The girl was not as warm and kind to the man like she used to be for some reason. But inside, she still loved him as she used to be. But she didn't believe the man anymore.
"Very well then, you can go alone if you don't want to take me with you, but please don't say that you don't believe me, even if you don't really believe me. My heartaches. So, please stop making me regret what I didn't even do. But remember, no matter what happens to me, don't blame yourself for it. You might not see me again when you return" the man said to the girl. Right now, he was really sad that he may not be able to see the girl again.
"Goodbye and don't worry, nothing is going to happen to you, they are not like you" with that said she turned around and left.
…..
Yang Zhai was still reminiscing when he was disturbed by a sound, he frowned when he heard the sound and woke Cho Byeol up and said,
"Cho Byeol, it's time to wake up, we're in trouble" Yang Zhai's expression was serious.
"What happened?" When Cho Byeol saw Yang Zhai's expression, she asked.
"Look there," Yang Zhai said.
Following Yang Zhai's gaze, Cho Byeol saw two black wolves coming out of the forest, their bodies were slim, and their height was around one meter long. They were both injured, seemingly they were in a fight recently.
"What should we do now?" Cho Byeol asked with a nervous expression
"We can't run because they're green wind wolves, they can run faster than the normal wolves, if we try to run we will just give them a chance to attack us from our backs. We don't have another choice but to fight them. They're both Rank 4 high-level beasts and are injured, we might have a chance to win against them" Yang Zhai said with a serious expression. If he was alone, he might have been able to run.
When Cho Byeol heard Yang Zhai, she became even more nervous. She didn't expect two green wind wolves to appear out of nowhere, and on top of that, they were both Rank four high-level beasts.
"What should I do? if I can help in some way, please tell me. I will do my best," Cho Byeol said.
"No, you shouldn't get involved, or you'll just slow me down. But you can help me distract them from the sides by attacking whenever you have the chance. And huh, guard the flowers as well, don't let their blood spill over them, or it'll delay their growth" Yang Zhai said to Cho Byeol while preparing to attack.
After he said this, he took the initiative to attack. A blue light as narrow as a finger shot out from his hand and attacked the wolf on the right side.
When the wolf saw the attack coming towards itself, it dodged the attack and ran towards Yang Zhai while growling, following that the other wolf also ran towards Yang Zhai. Yang Zhai started running towards the left side. When the wolves saw him running, they followed him and ignored Cho Byeol, to them, Yang Zhai who was Rank 4 mid-stage was more of a threat than Cho Byeol who was just Rank 3 peak stage.
After a while, he suddenly stopped and waited for the wolves to get close to him. He was already a few dozen meters away from Cho Byeol, it was enough to keep her safe.
When the two wolves got close to Yang Zhai and were about to jump towards him, a blinding white light shot out from him, which made the wolves unable to see him for a while. Yang Zhai took the chance and attacked one of the wolves with a sharp knife. The knife pierced the throat of the wolf and blood splattered on his clothes. Even though the knife had already pierced the throat of the wolf, it could still move and attacked Yang Zhai with its claw. Yang Zhai was thrown away a few meters. But fortunately, nothing happened to him, and only got some minor injuries.
His body was a little gray now, this was his defensive method, which saved him earlier.
He attacked and pierced the throat of the wolf again, he wanted to kill the wolf as soon as possible. This time he dodged the wolf's claw. After which, the wolf fell to the ground.
"Yang Zhai, look behind you," While he was looking at the wolf who was already dead, he suddenly heard Cho Byeol and looked behind. What he saw was that the other wolf was already close to him, and he couldn't dodge the attack from this distance.
Last time he only got some minor injuries because the other wolf was already close to death. But if he got attacked this time, that might not be the case. He'll surely be injured this time if the attack landed.
