Chapter 5 Sealed Heaven Continent
Upon hearing this expression of concern, Lin Que turned around and looked behind him.
He discovered that behind him stood a petite girl, about fifteen years old, holding a bow and arrow.
Her upper body was dressed in clothing similar to that of ancient northern shamans, revealing her slender waist.
Her short skirt had a slit that revealed glimpses of her fair legs, and she wore a crown with long, black hair that flowed freely behind her.
Two strokes of paint were applied to her face, and a pair of clear, pure eyes were looking at her.
Lin Que looked at the little girl in front of him and replied blankly, "No...it's nothing, thank you for saving my life."
Lin Que swore that he had never seen such a beautiful girl in his entire life.
Especially those eyes, clear as the sea; it feels like anything you do is wrong under her gaze.
Upon hearing this, a happy smile appeared on the little girl's exquisitely beautiful face, which was as lovely as an angel's.
"Great! Big brother, we rushed over as soon as we heard the noise, thankfully we made it in time!"
After hearing the word "we," Lin Que realized that there were several people dressed similarly behind the little girl, both men and women, making a total of six people including her.
The group of people approached the little girl from behind, all looking at Lin Que with wary expressions.
One of the men, who appeared to be in his early twenties, asked warily, "Who are you?! What brings you to this Cangwu Mountain Range?"
This left Lin Que completely baffled.
What? The Cangwu Mountains?
I've never heard of this place! What kind of weird place is this?
But I can only answer honestly.
"Friends, I don't know what happened either. I wasn't originally here."
"I was sucked into a strange pattern, and when I woke up in a daze, I found myself in this forest."
Another woman in the group then spoke up and asked, "What pattern are you talking about? Describe it in detail."
"It is a pattern composed of black and white yin-yang fish, surrounded by a circle of dragon patterns, with a six-pointed star in the center."
Lin Que honestly described the appearance of the pattern, and fearing that the other party would not know the shape of the pattern, he immediately drew a rough sketch on the ground with a twig.
There's no way around it, I can't help but be dishonest!
After all, they were all carrying bows and arrows, and some of the men were particularly strong and muscular, staring at him with hostile eyes.
Among the group, only that beautiful and adorable little girl had eyes full of joy and curiosity.
Do you see that huge yet young saber-toothed tiger behind you? Why is it young?
Because being young is so great! You can fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow…
One of the men in the group said, "We've never heard of or seen this pattern before."
"If you can't clearly explain your background, then please leave!"
Lin Que hurriedly replied, "Um... I'm from Jinling City. You know where Jinling is, right?"
Everyone looked puzzled.
"No way? You don't even know where this is? You must have heard of China, right?"
Lin Que thought for a moment and concluded that it was probably because the tribes living in the primeval forests were unaware of the outside world.
"Shenzhou? Never heard of it!"
"It's over..."
"Alright, alright, Brother Haoyue, Sister Xiyue, please stop scaring this big brother! Let him come out with us; he should know the way once we're outside!"
At this moment, the beautiful and lovely little girl spoke, her voice still ethereal and extremely pleasant to the ear.
"But..."
The man named Haoyue was about to say something more when he was immediately interrupted by the others.
"Alright, since little Lian Yue has spoken, let her come with us. Don't forget, Lian Yue is..."
This time, it was the woman named Xiyue who spoke, but then she seemed to remember something and quickly shut her mouth.
The little girl spoke up again, "But big brother, please wait for us a moment. We need to deal with this ferocious beast."
"Its core and fur are worth quite a bit of money~~~"
"no problem!"
"You are all my saviors, so whatever you say goes."
Finally saved!
Lin Que finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he should repay his savior after he got out, since the person had saved his life.
Ah!
It's just dealing with a ferocious beast, what's wrong with waiting a bit?
Wait, a ferocious beast... a beast core?
Something seems off.
Well...never mind.
The group approached the ferocious beast they had described, took out long knives from their waists, and began to move.
A short while later, the man in the lead, named Haoyue, took out a snow-white crystal from the beast's head. It was about the size of a crystal.
Wait, animals have this stuff in their heads?
Lin Que stared blankly at the scene.
In no time, the group had dealt with the ferocious beast. Judging from their practiced manner, they seemed to do this kind of work often.
"It's all done! Everyone pack up and get ready to go down the mountain! We can head back to the village for dinner now!"
The little girl skipped and hopped along, looking very happy, and the group followed her.
Lin Que hurriedly followed, as he had no desire to stay in this godforsaken place.
Lin Que felt rather bored on the way out, so he went up to the girl and struck up a conversation.
"Young lady, thank you again for saving my life. My name is Lin Que. I don't know your name yet. Could you please tell me?"
"Me? My name is Qi Lianyue, and I'm fourteen years old! The brother who was mean to you just now is Qi Haoyue, and that older sister is Qi Xiyue."
"But don't worry! They're just very nice older brothers and sisters, they're just a little wary of strangers."
It turns out the little girl's name is Qi Lianyue. She is indeed as beautiful as her name suggests, not only is she beautiful, but her name is also very pleasant to hear.
"By the way, Sister Lian Yue, may I call you that?" Lin Que asked curiously, "I'd like to ask, why do you call saber-toothed tigers ferocious beasts?"
"Also, why is there a crystal in its head?"
Qi Lian Yue tilted her cute little head and answered seriously, "Brother Lin Que, don't you know? The large creatures in this forest are all called ferocious beasts!"
"When a beast reaches a certain age, a crystal like the one you mentioned will evolve in its head. We call it a beast core, and it's very valuable!"
"Hmm~~~ We call that ferocious beast a Frost Tiger!" After explaining to Lin Que, Qi Lian Yue asked with great curiosity, "Lian Yue is very curious, why does Brother Lin Que call it a Saber-toothed Tiger?"
Lin Que frowned and said, "Frost Tiger?"
Qi Lianyue continued to explain to Lin Que: "That's right! Why is it called the Frost Tiger? It's because it can spew out a frost spell, and it can be quite troublesome if you're not careful."
"Luckily, it was only staring at Brother Lin Que and didn't notice us."
What the hell is this?!
Spitting out frost? A spell?
Lin Que was even more confused after hearing this. Where exactly had he come to?
My head was in a daze the whole way, and after walking with the others for about three hours, we finally got out of the forest.
Once outside, a wide-open view unfolded, revealing a village with wisps of smoke rising from its chimneys.
People come and go in the village, all wearing the same style of clothing, and the village children play and frolic barefoot.
Qi Lianyue happily pointed to the village in front of her and said, "Brother Lin Que, welcome to our village!"
"It's getting late, how about we stay for a meal and spend the night before leaving?"
"The village is still quite a distance from the nearest city, Cangwu City!"
Lin Que was still reeling from the ferocious beast incident when he heard unfamiliar place names, which only confused him more.
Somewhat uncertainly, she asked, "Um... Sister Lian Yue, you're talking about Cangwu City, right?"
"Yes~"
Qi Lianyue looked at Lin Que with an innocent expression.
"Wait, let me sort this out... This forest and mountain range behind us is called the Cangwu Mountain Range, right?"
At this moment, Lin Que was frantically scratching his head.
"Yes, the entire Cangwu Mountain Range stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles. It's fortunate that Brother Lin Que didn't go deep into the Cangwu Mountain Range."
"It's just on the outskirts of the mountains, otherwise Brother Lin Que, you really wouldn't have been able to get out."
"Then the Cangwu City I mentioned is a city built on the Cangwu Mountain Range, and it's also the largest city in this area!"
Qi Lianyue still looked at Lin Que with an innocent expression.
"And then I'd like to ask, which country does Cangwu City belong to?"
Lin Que had a bad feeling...
Qi Lianyue replied with a grin, "Cangwu City belongs to the territory of the Lieyang Empire! Brother Lin Que, didn't you know that?"
Lin Que began to break down: "Um... Sister Lian Yue, just one more question, is the Lieyang Empire located in a place called Blue Star?"
"What Blue Star! The Blazing Sun Empire is one of the empires on the Sealed Heaven Continent."
"Besides, the entire Fengtian Continent also has the Frost Moon Empire and the Cloud Dream Empire."
"Also, the Sealed Heaven Continent isn't some Blue Star!"
"The Fengtian Continent is only a part of the Fengling Realm. I've heard there are other continents within the entire Fengling Realm!"
"But no one has ever been there, and no one has ever seen it, because the Fengtian Continent is already very, very large! And it seems that you can't get out of it, and we don't know why."
After saying all this, Qi Lianyue looked at Lin Que with an innocent expression.
Holy shit!
Lin Que's sky has fallen...
After looking into Qi Lianyue's innocent and naive eyes, Lin Que finally realized something.
He traveled through time...
