Silver Emperor Sky Falcon

Chapter 48 Silver Emperor Sky Falcon

As the sun slowly rose higher, its warm glow gently shone upon this cold world.

The sound of dripping water echoed all around, quite noticeable in the empty environment.

Shen Hanyu and the other person stood around, quietly waiting for Shen Liuyu, who was still absorbing the soul ring.

Shui Bing'er sensed the gradually calming soul power fluctuations emanating from Shen Liuyu and said:

"It seems that the Flowing Jade is almost finished. Hmm... Although neither of you siblings is serious, in terms of talent, I have never seen anyone of the same age who can compare to you."

Three question marks appeared above Shen Hanyu's head.

Good heavens, what do you mean by saying none of them are serious? That's pure filth.

He, the dignified First Holy Mother of Douluo Continent and a truly good person, was actually slandered as indecent; it's simply a distortion of human nature.

Shen Hanyu ignored him, simply giving a curt "hmm," glanced at the still unmoved tent, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"Um... Bing'er, would you like to go see your sister? This..."

Shui Bing'er had become immune to Shen Hanyu's way of addressing her, and a hint of helplessness appeared on her face. After a long while, she whispered:

"Yue'er... Yue'er is acting quite normally... Don't worry, she'll probably wake up around dinnertime..."

Shen Hanyu blinked and silently gave a thumbs up.

Shui Bing'er was also a little embarrassed. Her younger sister's love of eating and sleeping, as well as her infatuated personality, had been completely exposed to Shen Hanyu.

Sisters are of one mind. For some reason, she, as the older sister, also felt a sense of shame at being seen naked by Shen Hanyu, which made her face burn.

Shen Hanyu didn't think anything of it. He was very good at accepting things and had seen a lot in his two lifetimes. Naturally, he noticed Shui Bing'er's sense of shame, but in order not to be labeled as a straight man, he was too lazy to say it.

With a soft moan, a purple spirit ring was completely placed in Shen Liuyu's third spirit ring position, and Shen Liuyu slowly opened her light blue eyes.

Shen Hanyu stepped forward and said:

"How does it feel?"

Shen Liuyu smiled broadly and said happily:

"Not bad, level 32 soul power. My third soul skill is also an amplification type soul skill. I estimate that there are no soul skills of the same level that can compare to my third soul skill."

Shui Bing'er also stepped forward to congratulate him, but her eyes held a hint of envy. From the very beginning, the other party had absorbed soul rings from top-tier soul beasts, and the soul skills he acquired were perfectly suited to his needs.

She has already wasted a soul skill slot, although the first four soul skills are almost useless later on and are rarely used.

However, given the current state, every soul skill is crucial, since our cultivation is too weak right now; there's nothing we can do about it.

Shen Liuyu stepped forward, patted Shui Bing'er on the shoulder, and said in a very generous manner:

"Don't worry, Bing'er. Call me 'sister' now, and I'll protect you from now on."

Shui Bing'er covered her mouth and chuckled, not taking it seriously, and said:

"Then I'll be waiting to see, little sister Liuyu~"

Shen Liuyu stuck out her little tongue and stopped talking.

Shen Hanyu coughed twice at the opportune moment and said:

"Then let's wake Yue'er up first, and then hurry on our way. We can't delay any longer."

Shui Bing'er nodded in agreement, and Shen Liuyu, always eager for a good show, followed along with interest...

………………

Half an hour later.

The group appeared on a patch of snow that was still largely intact.

Shuiyue'er's face was still frighteningly red, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

Shen Liuyu walked behind, suppressing her laughter, occasionally letting out a low chuckle.

Who would have thought that such a cute little girl would have such a... wild sleeping posture?

Shui Bing'er walked ahead, one step behind Shen Hanyu. Although she didn't show much expression, one could see the deep helplessness hidden beneath her calm demeanor.

Shen Hanyu walked at the front, and couldn't help but find it a little funny. Sometimes, girls' sleeping postures really caught him off guard.

Just as the group was still thinking about what happened that morning, Shen Hanyu suddenly stopped, then quickly pulled everyone into the surrounding forest. He then said to Shui Bing'er with a somewhat strange expression:

"Are you sure it's the thousand-year-old Silver Emperor Falcon? Is the information accurate?"

Although Shui Bing'er was also curious, she nodded seriously and said:

"The information that my aunt sent out two Soul Emperor-level teachers to investigate should be accurate."

Shen Hanyu almost cursed, and said in a deep voice:

"The wingspan of a Silver Emperor Sky Falcon at the thousand-year level is no more than ten meters. Its growth will slow down after that. To be honest, my spiritual power did find a Silver Emperor Sky Falcon, but its wingspan is at least eighteen meters. That means its cultivation level is at least fifty thousand years."

"There are very few records of Silver Emperor Sky Falcons of this level in the past, but the only unofficial historical record mentions that a 70,000-year-old Silver Emperor Sky Falcon killed a level 93 Title Douluo whose martial soul was a top-level weapon martial soul. Although the specific process is unknown to outsiders, it shows how terrifying the Silver Emperor Sky Falcon is."

Upon hearing this, the other three women's expressions changed. Shui Yue'er immediately hugged her sister's arm tightly, and Shen Liuyu also stopped laughing and joking, her expression turning somewhat unpleasant.

Shui Bing'er was also somewhat at a loss, and said hastily:

"The information my aunt gave us is indeed true. Those two Soul Emperor teachers also personally investigated. Such a powerful Soul Beast has never appeared in the Frozen Forest before. The most powerful Soul Beast has never been older than 40,000 years..."

Shui Yue'er nodded in agreement. For thousands of years, most of the students of Tianshui Academy have entered the Frozen Forest to hunt for Soul Rings, and their understanding of the place is unparalleled in the world.

Moreover, after so many years of continuous hunting, the high-level soul beasts here have either migrated or been hunted down. How could such a powerful soul beast have gone unnoticed by the world?

Shen Hanyu waved his hand, sighed softly, and said:

"With the melting of the ice and snow here, this Silver Falcon may have come here to nest and survive because there is plenty of food and no major threats. The creature your teacher found earlier might have been a cub of this Silver Falcon."

"It makes sense that the cubs of the Silver Emperor Falcon will stay with their mothers for five thousand years before leaving."

Shui Bing'er nodded, and said somewhat nervously:

"What should we do then? The forest here is intermittent, and there aren't many things that can conceal our figures and tracks. Once we are discovered, we will have nowhere to hide."

Shen Hanyu softened his tone and said:

"Don't panic. Our situation isn't too bad right now. The Silver Emperor Sky Falcon's prey is usually large soul beasts, and it doesn't seem to have much malice towards humans. Let's assess the situation first. If things get really bad, I'm confident I can lead you all to safety..."
