Chapter 203

Yan Kexing: "We can't take you for a ride, it's too cold. But I can show you what it feels like to fly in the air."

Yan Kexing took flight, Shi Wen then realized that there wasn't a breath of wind around him, as if there was a glass dome in front of him. He wondered how Yan Kexing had managed to do it.

High in the sky, with no wind around, and Yan Kexing's scales still warm, Shi Wen felt wonderful—quiet, warm, and beautiful. He felt like he was dreaming.

Shi Wen while before suddenly realizing, "Won't we get photographed like this?"

Yan Kexing: "No, my scales can refract light, so neither the human eye nor instruments should be able to detect our form."

"That's wonderful." Shi Wen lay down, pressing her cheek against Yan Kexing's scales. "It really feels like a dream, it's so beautiful."

"Let me take you flying a little longer."

"Okay." Shi Wen sat up straight again and suddenly asked, "Will you be able to turn back into your original form soon?"

"Hmm, I've finally accumulated enough energy to revert to my original form."

"Then I'll raise more livestock in the future, and try to replace most of our food with Variant Ingredients."

That might be a bit tough.

"I'm not afraid of hard work, I just hope you can transform into your dragon form whenever you want. I love your dragon form, it's so beautiful."

"I also like your original Qilin form," Yan Kexing said with a smile. "I hope to see it soon."

"You don't even know what my Qilin's true form looks like, and you already like it?" Shi Wen, stroking the dragon scales. "It might be particularly ugly."

"I love you no matter what you look like, and your original form can't possibly be ugly," Yan Kexing said with absolute certainty. "All divine beasts, especially Auspicious Beasts, are symbols of strength and beauty in their original forms."

"Then I'll look forward to it too," Shi Wen spiritedly. "The day I can transform, I'll carry you to fly in the sky!"

After saying that, Shi Wen asked again, "Can my original form fly? I already have wings."

Yan Kexing smiled and said, "Yes."

Yan Kexing carried Shi Wen and flew in the sky for more than half an hour.

Although Shi Wen was still reluctant to leave, he was a little worried that Yan Kexing would be tired. "Let's go down and rest for a while. I think the snow leopard is on that hillside to the northeast. I saw its silhouette."

Yan Kexing: "I saw it too."

Shi Wen, "Then let's go over and meet up with it."

Chapter 203

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing flying in the sky, they could see a snow leopard chasing a fawn.

Snow leopards run very fast, and deer run very fast too.

Their agile figures move across the land, as if the earth were a backdrop and they were animated figures moving on it, their every move seemingly escaping the laws of physics in reality.

Shi Wen sat on Yan Kexing's lap and whispered to him, "The little snow leopard is so handsome, and the little deer is so handsome too. Do you think the little snow leopard can successfully hunt?"

"It should be able to," Yan Kexing's voice came from a little ahead. "It's a bit faster than the deer, and they've been closing in. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should be able to catch the deer before its stamina runs out."

Shi Wen stared at the running fawn on the ground and said, "Shall we wait here until it succeeds in its hunt?"

Yan Kexing: "Okay, want to fly around for a bit more? Or stop here?"

Shi Wen lay down and hugged Yan Kexing, saying, "Let's stop here. I want to observe the snow leopard cub's hunting."

Yan Kexing: "Hmm."

Yan Kexing's dragon scales are warm and cozy, and very comfortable to hug.

Shi Wen pressed her cheek against his scales, her eyes fixed intently on the snow leopard hunting below.

The snow leopard has a clear advantage, but even with this advantage, it is not easy for it to successfully hunt.

The deer was very familiar with the terrain, maneuvering and shifting with the flair of a martial arts master.

On several occasions, because they moved quickly enough, the deer managed to turn around on the cliff, almost causing the snow leopard to fall off.

The snow leopard was very patient and pursued the enemy steadily, showing no sign of recklessness, and successfully escaped danger several times.

Shi Wen can't help but think of the little guys in my house ambushing all sorts of rodents in groups.

It seems the snow leopard cub has really trained; it's now a seasoned hunter.

They Shi Wen waiting patiently in the air.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes, the snow leopard finally seized on a mistake by the fawn, successfully biting and killing it.

The snow leopard also seemed excited, its long teeth digging deep into the fawn's neck, holding on tightly.

Even after the fawn had completely lost all signs of life, it still did not release it.

Yan Kexing flew downwards with Shi Wen in his arms.

The snow leopard sensed the movement in the air as they approached, looked up, and saw Shi Wen, showing no fear whatsoever.

It even grabbed the deer by the neck and excitedly bleated twice, dragging the deer toward them, seemingly wanting to share it with them.

Shi Wen shouted at the snow leopard, "We're not eating it, you can eat it yourself!"

The snow leopard was still dragging the treasure toward them, its intention to present it as a gift was quite obvious.

Yan Kexing said, "It's probably because it just had breakfast this morning and isn't hungry yet."

Shi Wen, "That was a mistake; I should have known better than to feed it."

For a large feline like a snow leopard, one meal can sustain it for several days.

It may hunt because of excitement and the Shi Wen demand, rather than hunger.

Yan Kexing led Shi Wen closer to the snow leopard.

When the two were about 20 or 30 meters apart, the snow leopard instinctively became afraid of Yan Kexing, who had transformed into a dragon, and stopped there, not daring to move forward. At the same time, it made a low growl in its throat, and the snow leopard's fur stood on end.

Shi Wen said, "It didn't recognize you."

Yan Kexing: "It's normal that you don't recognize me. I'll try turning back into human form."

Yan Kexing transformed back into human form two or three meters above the ground. As he transformed, he quickly grabbed Shi Wen by the knees and carried him to the ground.
