Sunset Forest
Lin Ya and Ah Rou strolled along the path as though taking a leisurely walk through a courtyard.
Given their strength, they truly could walk sideways through Sunset Forest.
The moment they entered the depths of the forest, Ah Rou slowly released her aura. It was gentle and mild, yet concealed the vast pressure unique to a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. In the surrounding grass and thickets, countless low-level soul beasts trembled the instant they sensed that bloodline-born intimidation. They fled in all directions, scrambling over one another, clearing out a vast area in moments.
Lin Ya turned to look at the gentle and graceful Ah Rou beside him, a faint smile at the corner of his lips. "Aren't you afraid of scaring away the Soft Bone Rabbit we're looking for by releasing your aura so directly?"
Ah Rou gently shook her head, her eyes curving as she replied with certainty, "No. There isn't the slightest hint of killing intent in the aura I released; it's simply a call from one of its own kind. Unless it's timid to the extreme, it won't flee rashly."
"This..." Lin Ya had wanted to say that rabbits were timid by nature.
But then he thought of Xiao Wu and Ah Rou. It seemed that rabbits being timid was nothing more than a fixed impression.
Having figured that out, Lin Ya said no more and continued forward at an unhurried pace with Ah Rou. The atmosphere around them was relaxed and pleasant, without the slightest urgency of searching for a soul beast. Instead, it felt as if they were simply taking a leisurely stroll through the woods.
"How have things been in the Heaven Dou Empire lately? Have you gotten used to it?" Lin Ya took the initiative and asked softly.
