wild beast

Mu xin walk out of the forest, feeling the sunlight hitting his face, seeing the plain in front of him (I'm finally out) he took a deep breath feeling the strain from being on edge at dangerous place fading away.

He looks around but see nothing so he just walks forward, after few minutes he meet another group of people, but this one is consisted of big people wearing a light cloth, the men have a massive muscle while the women is tall even showing some abs.

Mu xin conflicted whether to ask them for direction or not since they look like a fierce people, but he didn't have a choice since one of them come up to him.

Women A "what are you doing here? This is not a place for a kid like you"

Mu xin "uh i just pick some medicine grass" Mu xin open the lid of his basket showing half full of bihong grass.

Man B "hoo bihong grass, because of its healing property even if eaten as it is and also the main ingredient for tier 2 pill it always in demand, why there's a horn?"

Mu xin "i found an animal corpse and its horn broken so i took it"

Man B "i do you a favor and take everything for you since you're so small you be too tired holding it"

(What? This f*cker even robbing a brat?!)

After the man said that he and his people started walking back into the forest as mu xin can only helplessly see his possession being taken away.

(Should i be happy he didn't kill me? There are four of them and each of them powerful there's no way i can fight back like this, i can't trust everyone, terrible lesson learn)

He pushed aside the anger he feels, and start walking forward again not long latter he found a dirt road

(This mean I'm might actually pretty close to a city)

Mu xin follow the footstep on the road hoping the city won't be far.

After walking for thirty mu xin finally see the city, surround by a tall white stone wall and at the gate small line of people and carriage is line up to be checked before going inside.

'Little xin we made it! Its human city!'

Somehow shu hua is more excited than mu xin

"Yeah we made it" His face show a relief after long day in the forest, but just as he takes the first step to the city he stops in his track

'Little xin what's wrong?'

(Sister hua might have memory inheritance, but those only contain the most basic thing, the rest probably about her cultivation guidance, she never leaves the cave so she is unfamiliar with human society, i have nothing on me, I'm not even ten years old yet so no way i can get a job, no one would hire a brat for work, so even if I'm going to the city i cant do anything there, there might be library i can get information from but there's a chance that just reading there might cost me money, i cant go to the city, i have no mean to survive in there, gotta tell sister hua)

"Sister hua, we can't go to the city, i have nothing and cant do anything, we can't survive going there"

'If that's what little xin say sister will listen, little xin is so mature to be able to see so far ahead, so maybe sister should call you mu xin from now on?'

Her voice is lace with playfulness and teasing mu xin lips couldn't help but twitch.

"Please don't tease me like that sister hua"

With that decided mu xin walk back to the forest while asking shu hua all kind of thing.

(Alright let's get it straight so there's normal animal and what people call wild beast which is an animal that have started their cultivation path, on the other hand there's also demonic beast which cultivating using dark QI, while wild beast can even be tamed by people demonic beast is completely violent untamable and they much stronger than wild beast of same grade, and that boar is almost become wild beast, sound weak, but reality is different, and for wild beast and demonic beast their greatest improvement is their physical body, their skin become harder, much stronger, and faster, some other will have other increment like snake with the poison much more potent, or even gain some ability by awakening their bloodline, it is said all animal have a sliver bloodline from divine beast of their race, but they can also gain other race of divine beast bloodline by absorbing the said divine beast blood)

While he's absorbing the new information he already back in front of the forest

"Well there's no turning back now, not like i have any other choice in the first place"

'This is good for you to mu xin, you can train yourself in this forest while cultivating, don't worry about food and water sister help you with that so do your best'

(Having a support and encouragement is great huh)

He though so while walking back into the forest that he's desperately trying to leave from, but now he back to challenge it.

While he walks he's also trying to practice the flowing palm technique with his hand alone.

(Flowing palm technique is a technique that uses the flow of the opponent strength against them or the flow of user strength against opponent, one can even receive opponent attack and control the flow of its force into somewhere else like ground hence protecting oneself, it is a technique with its movement set but one doesn't necessarily stuck with that alone because a flow constantly changing and adapt to the situation, this mean since its about controlling the flow maybe i can use it together with a weapon? I can perhaps control the force from my entire body into the weapon and the result will be much destructive? I need to experiment on it to know, hell perhaps i can even block enemy attack control the flow of its force and while I'm about to strike back with the opponent force i can add my force on top of it making it even stronger)

*rustle*

Mu xin startle looking at the bush almost ten meter in front of him.

What appear was another boar, but this one is bigger with a tusk and horn longer to and there's appear some intelligent in its eye as the boar looking at mu xin.

'Mu xin that's a wild beast!'

(Really, why now?)
