Lee skimmed through the information on the disy. Before he could finish reading, he felt a sense of danger.
The beasts were faster and the trio disyed anger. Zena turned around and hissed at the soldiers watching them.
"The beasts really have sharp senses."
The exmation in the voice was evident as the elf, the assistant of the lieutenant, came walking to them. Seeing her, Zena calmed down but the Draconic Wyverns were ring at the woman.
"They have sharp teeth. Wanna check?"
The infuriated reply was conveyed with a clenched fist. Though his face was nk and his voice devoid of expression, the woman felt hostility from looking at him.
"May I ask-"
The woman tried to construct a conversation but was forced to swallow down her words as Lee Shen turned and walked away.
The trio took a split second to observe the woman for onest time and followed Lee. Zena lost her good impression of the elf and followed Lee''s footsteps.
The woman was an above-average beauty. Though petite, her rearpensated thecking. Wearing a charming outfit that hardly suited the formal category, she was a typical soldier''s imagination material.
The soldiers who witnessed this action were fuming in anger. Such rudeness! Everyone felt as if they were individually insulted. Within seconds, numerous stares of anger were focused on Lee.
But their courageous thoughts to defend the beauty in distress was crumbled when they raised their heads. Into their very souls did these beasts stared. The menacing three eyebo was soul-splitting and many felt a tremor passing down their spine.
The elf felt disrespected. But she could not move an inch as Zena looked over her shoulder and into the elf''s eyes.
''Move an inch, and I''ll make you regret'' was the words that the Perrafin intended to convey and she probably overdid. Or maybe it was because of facing a direct threat from an infamous beast that the woman unconsciously wetted her underwear!
Peacefully walking out of the military premise at his leisure, Lee Shen scanned his surroundings carefully. He was cautious about potential threats.
When he was being taken to the military base for interrogation, he noticed that many pairs of eyes were nted on Zena and they did not have good intentions. Some people were brave enough to scan the Draconic Wyvern and stare at it as they owned them.
Two figures, particrly, caught Lee Shen''s attention while he was entering the military base premise. He saw both figures on top of a distant building and he couldn''t define their outfits or ethnicity.
All he was able to observe was that one was a male and the other, a female. The masculine figure wore a conical hat and he wore a robe that fluttered in the air.
The feminine quality of the other figure was evidently visible from the curves. She stood next to the figure with a conical hat and as he observed, they both vanished into thin air.
D quickly warned Lee that that is probably a technique called Dust Walk. D conveyed that the skill is something taught to assassins and covert operatives.
With the presence of cultivators confirmed, Hudson insisted Lee be on high alert. Since he is iplete, the Qi techniques of martial artists and cultivators could injure his soul more than his body.
If there was one thing about cultivators that concerned Hudson, it is their affinity with Qi that can harm a person''s soul. This was an achievement that adventurers and mages would struggle to pull off!
''I miss the Map.''
Scratching his head while looking left and right, Lee was puzzled about where to go in this foreignnd. He took a moment to look at Zena''s face which disyed innocence.
A minute ago, she was about to tear that elf!
Since the Draconic Wyverns are taller and have a good area of visibility, he asked their opinion, and immediately regretted it!
Pyro was okay with staying put on thend andying somewhere in peace. But Cryo insisted on going to the waters which infuriated Pyro. Different from his brothers, Aero wanted to go airborne.
*dull growling*
The trio began to converse and it did not go well. What begun as a series of simple gestures grew into dull growls and eventually became a disy of hostility.
"Knock it off, will you?!"
The little man shouted and the trio paused a moment to stare at him. Then they skimmed their eyes over the mass crowded on the streets to watch these colossal monsters.
"You are causing disturbance!"
Lee said angrily and his voicemanded them to shut up. Promptly, the trio quieted down.
Zena was watching these while standing next to Lee. She had observed the changes in the surroundings and was about to growl at her brothers when Lee shouted.
[Kids.]
''You should have taught them a thing or two when they were under your care.''
[Thats your job to do. A familiar beast only takesmands from its bond.]
Lee did not reply and turned to face southward. He wanted to reach the maind as soon as possible but decided to take things slow when D rmended so.
[Lee, your iplete soul is influencing your behaviour. So control your impulses.
I suggest you dig up your memories about meditation you practised when you were on Earth. It might help you heal quickly.]
The streets were less than 14 metres wide and that was enough for the Draconic Wyverns to walk. But the presence of carriages and transportation animals on the streets prevented them from walking.
Comprehending this, Lee walked back to Aero to mount when a carriage came and stopped near him.
The carriage pulled by two Dune Wolves was gorgeous with decorations. The navy blue coloured cabin had golden coloured borders with beautiful craftworks and designs on it.
At a nce, it was luxuriously designed and its worth should surpass a few hundred gold coins. Whenpared with the other carriages on the street, this carriage had an air of royalty around it.
