The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1022 The Chimera II

The talisman Yang Xi Ying put down was a camouflage to hide the cave from prying eyes including Beasts but couldn't hide their human scent and sound therefore Yang Xi Ying used the special powder given by the Hei Shen sect to hide the human's scent however the animal keen senses will still able recognizes their sounds and movement, therefore, she pulls Tao Bing wen to hide behind the big boulder.

As expected, though the creatures outside cannot see the cave but the creature's instincts could sense the strangeness of the place.

Meanwhile, Tao Bing Wen's body was shaking incessantly, he thought the creature at the mouth of the cave was a giant lion but he saw the shadow of a goat on the cave wall, then he heard the hiss of a snake, so what kinda animal outside? still, he didn't dare to peek he doesn't even dare to move.

Fear, stress, and panic swirled in Tao Bing Wen's head, he wanted to scream with all his might and run away as fast as he could, but seeing Yang Xi Ying with a slightly bulging stomach made Tao Bing Wen not have a heart to leave her all alone. Tao Bing Wen knew he wasn't the bravest, smartest, or strongest but he was sure he wasn't a coward, if he left Yang Xi Ying to save his own life even if he survived he wouldn't be able to live with himself.

On the other hand, Yang Xi Ying knew that the beast that came to them is a Hybrid Beast and its level is not low either, Yang Xi Ying wasn't sure she will be able to defeat this beast in her current state, let alone Tao Bing Wen also here, it will be impossible for Yang Xi Ying to fight the beast while protecting this stupid kid.

Suddenly the beast let out a powerful roar at the cave that forces Yang Xi and Tao Bing Wen had to cover their ears, the beast's roar was so loud Tao Bing Wen thought his eardrums would burst.

But Yang Xi Ying had other things to fear, he looked up at the roof of the cave he was afraid that the roof of the cave roof would collapse and the creature knew of their existence, well that is if they didn't die from being crushed by the cave stone first but suddenly the beast jerked up as if something caught his attention, the beast growled and then dash away to opposite direction at the same time they heard the sound of rocks shifting then pebbles from the roof of the cave began to crumble.

Yang Xi Ying squeezed Tao Bing Wen's hand again <strong>"GET OUT, HURRY!"</strong>

"But-but-but the creature..." Tao Bing Wen hesitated. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

But Yang Xi Ying didn't give him a choice, she dragged them out, and soon after the cave behind them collapsed. Seeing that, Tao Bing Wen's legs went limp, his bottom fell to the ground and his body shook as he realized he was almost dead… again.

Yang Xi Ying's arms subconsciously wrapped around her stomach, knowing once again she almost lost her child luckily god of luck is on her side but she didn't have time to be happy yet because the beast might come back after hearing the sound of the cave collapsing.

"We should go, that creature might return after all this commotion," said Yang Xi Ying.

Tao Bing Wen was dumbfounded he gulped nervously, and the thought that the beast might return gives strength to his weak legs, he then quickly got up from the ground, "Le...let's hurry!" His voice was filled with fear and urgency.

Yang Xi Ying let Tao Bing Wen lead them to the empyrean green forest since he had already been there before so he knew the area better than her and from there they will be close to Yin Shan mountain, Yang Xi Ying hopes she will be able to meet Lory and Zhao Li Xin there, she believes if she is with them her chances of survival will be much higher than staying anywhere alone by then she can calmly wait until Li Mo Zhen finds her.

"I heard from my father that your identity is actually Jiu Yun sect master's wife and your cultivation is much higher than mine maybe, even more, higher than Yang Zhou's" Tao Bing Wen started a conversation to divert his thoughts from the situation around him.

Yang Xi Ying didn't mind talking to him besides she felt Tao Bing Wen's presence made her feel somewhat at ease because at least she didn't feel like she was the only human survivor in this world.

"Yeah, it should be clear by now," Yang Xi Ying replied.

"Yeah, I just feel stupid acting cool for trying to save all of you, moreover my dad also said that that weak guy is actually Master Long Ming and that weird woman is also Long Ming's wife" Tao Bing Wen's face turned red at the memory of how stupid his behavior was in front of the most powerful people in the world.

Yang Xi Ying remembered that time and an amused smile appeared on her beautiful face "But you did give us a favor, because of you we were able to enter Yu Jin city without alerting the Heaven Gate sect as a result Lord Long Ming managed to launch a surprise attack without Wei Zu Tian and Duan Shu Shu knowing" Yang Xi Ying sincerely said.

Yang Xi Ying's kind words made his face blush, "Oh..You think so, well...I'm glad I could help" he pretend to be nonchalant but obviously failed.

"Hm, my friend told me that every small act of kindness no matter how small or insignificant it is can make an unimaginable difference... I guess she's right again" she flicked a smile at Tao Bing Wen.

"Your friend? are you talking about Long Ming's wife?" Tao Bing Wen asked.

"Yes," there was an undeniable warmth in Yang Xi Ying's voice.

Tao Bing wen often heard from his mother that friendship between women was shallow especially for women in high positions so they couldn't let their guard down especially in front of other women because who knows what their motives were for approaching you, at first Tao Bing Wen didn't trust his mother. however, once he grew up, he often heard other women slandering their own girlfriends behind their backs, so he thought all friendships between women were indeed like that, but now he changed his mind, it seems not all women like that.

"You really trust her, don't you?" Tao Bing Wen was a little jealous of their close friendship, think again he never had a true friend in his life.

"I wouldn't be here without her," Yang Xi Ying's eyes warmed as she reminiscence the first time she met with Lory.

Tao Bing Wen agrees that Long Ming's wife is very good, previously he acted very rudely in front of her but she still helps him she even takes him to the physician and gives him free lunches later on she also helps him from being bullied.

Suddenly Yang Xi Ying pulls Tao Bing Wen again, but this time he didn't try he resist he knew something is about to happen. Yang Xi Ying press her index finger to her lips and Tao Bing Wen bit his lips in reflex.

Yang Xi Ying quickly pull Tao Bing Wen behind the big tree trunk she then slowly peek from behind the tree, not far from them a giant Hybrid Beast was in the middle of having a feast.

Yang Xi Ying then pulled Tao Bing Wen behind a large tree trunk and slowly peeked out from behind the tree followed by Tao Bing Wen who peeked from the other side, not far from them was a giant Hybrid Beast in the middle of having a feast but all of a sudden the beast head raised, strangely is not the head of a lion instead is the head of a goat with a pair of horns on its head, and the snake on its tail suddenly erect it begin making a hissing sounds.

The beast's horrendous appearance made Tao Bing Wen almost scream but luckily he managed to cover his mouth and Yang Xi Ying pulled him back behind the tree trunk.

Both Yang Xi Ying and Tao Bing Wen exchanged frightened looks there was a silent panic in their eyes, how could they be so unlucky to run into the same beast twice in one day.

Without prompting Yang Xi Ying and Tao Bing Wen poured the same powder on top of their head and body to cover their smell. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

Meanwhile, the sound of bones breaking and flesh tearing made them even more stressed, Yang Xi Ying then summon a sword from her ring meanwhile Tao Bing Wen took out a talisman from his sleeve. The beast suddenly stopped eating, its head lifted and the two-headed creature looked in the opposite direction as if something was bothering the creatures and they hope it wasn't them.

Yang Xi Ying took a deep breath as she shut her eyes to calm her mind, she opened her eyes when she heard heavy footsteps coming toward her.
