Chapter 21: Swamp Forest

In a dense swamp forest, three women stood on the branches of a large tree, and a little fox lay relaxed on the head of the youngest woman. They looked around warily, and beneath them were various types of large beasts, but they didn't seem interested in the beasts below them.

'Hey Mei, explain to me about the stages of the beasts.' Zhang Fei asked, as he observed the beasts below them, he felt that the beasts were stronger than him.

[Basically, beasts are ranked the same as cultivators, Master. But the difference is the stages after Quasi-Divine, above Quasi-Divine, are Divine, Mythical, Immortal, and the last one is Primordial]

Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows upon hearing that. 'Divine, Mythical, Immortal, and Primordial?'

[Yes! Based on the data provided by the creator, there were only two Primordial beasts in the entire universe.]

[Divine rank: Luan, Thunder Bird, Raiju, and many more.]

[Mythical Rank: Golden Dragon, Fire and Ice Phoenix, Qilin, and many more. Oh, Heavenly Fox is also a Mythical beast.]

[As for the Immortal and Primordial Rank, I don't have the data about these two ranks.]

'Hmm? Heavenly Fox is also a Mythical beast?' Zhang Fei was surprised to hear that because he had also read about various kinds of mythical creatures from various countries before, but he had never read about the Heavenly Fox, so he asked curiously. 'Do the beasts still exist?'

[Yes, Heavenly Fox is a Mythical beast, and those beasts still exist, Master. Even some are still residing on earth.]

Zhang Fei was shocked to hear that, he really didn't expect that there were still mythical creatures on earth. 'If there are still beasts residing on earth, then why are there no cultivators and Qi?'

[I don't know why there are no cultivators and Qi on earth, Master. Because the creator didn't leave any record about it.]

Zhang Fei shook his head and sighed, then he asked again. 'Have you found the location of the Python-Tailed Tiger?'

[There are three Python-Tailed Tigers in the center of this swamp forest.]

Liu Qingyu suddenly spoke. "We have to go to the center of this swamp forest, I detected a Python-Tailed Tiger over there."

"Looks like Mom detected something or someone dangerous, Qing'er." Chu Ying actually didn't want to leave her mother either, but if they stayed, then they would become a hindrance to their mother.

'What the hell happened, Mei? Why does Qingyu look panicked?' Zhang Fei asked nervously, as he didn't want anything to happen to Liu Qingyu.

[Master, there are two people whose strength is on par with her heading towards the center of the swamp, and it looks like they're coming for her because their auras lock onto her.]

Zhang Fei darkened upon hearing that, then he looked back; he wouldn't let Liu Qingyue die, as he wanted to have her as his woman. He didn't care anymore if they were suspicious of him, then he spoke to Chu Qing via telepathy. 'You two keep flying away, I will save your mother!'

Chu Qing was taken aback by Zhang Fei's voice in her mind, but before she could say anything to him, he had already used his teleportation to return to Liu Qingyu's place.

"What happened to you, Qing'er?" Chu Ying asked, as her eyes continued to focus forward, and she did not notice that Zhang Fei was no longer with them.

"Nothing, I'm just worried about mom." She then looked back, and she inwardly muttered. 'I hope you can save mom and come back safely, because you owe me an explanation, Qiao (Zhang Fei).'
