Inside the Zhao residence, Zhao Ling had been home for two months, while his two older brothers had returned to their sect a month ago. Yun Li's condition had fully recovered, while his father was still busy preparing for the clan tournament that would be held in a month.
"Come on, Mom, I want to train. I promise in the agreement for the match three years from now, I will definitely come back. Your child will prove that he is not trash like they say," Zhao Ling said, persuading his mother. He had often pleaded with his mother and even shown his strength to her, but she still wouldn't allow it.
"No, no matter what, the Dark Forest is very dangerous, Ling Er. Even though you have become a warrior, you are only a level 2 beginner warrior, while in that forest, there are many demonic beasts at the same level as master warriors and even above," Yun Li said firmly, but it didn't make Zhao Ling give up.
"Come on, Mom, I'm not going alone. I have a teacher who will definitely protect me, and besides, my training is different from others. Only in the Dark Forest can I improve quickly," Zhao Ling said, continuing to persuade his mother. And because she was constantly persuaded by her stubborn child, Yun Li finally gave in.
"Alright, you can go, but you have to promise to come back in one piece. Nothing less," Yun Li said, making Zhao Ling happy.
"Hehe, alright, Mom, just trust your child. I will come back safely. In two years, I will come back and go to the Imperial Palace to make the agreement with him," Zhao Ling said confidently, which Yun Li nodded in agreement. After saying goodbye and chatting with his mother, Zhao Ling immediately left the Zhao Clan without telling his father. His father didn't even know that he had become a warrior, and his mother only knew that Zhao Ling was a level 2 beginner warrior because Zhao Ling hadn't shown his true strength yet.
Now, Zhao Ling had left the Zhao Clan and was heading towards the Dark Forest.
"Finally, I can go back to that forest and look for the Cold Bone Flame. Hehe, initially I thought of looking for it when I reached the King realm, but since I have the Golden Emperor Flame, I can search for it now," Zhao Ling muttered to himself. He had finally reached the border of the Dark Forest, and without looking back, Zhao Ling immediately entered the forest, heading to a different location from his previous cave.
"Truly a paradise. There are so many low-level herbs here. Although they are only low-level, they are useful up to the Warrior realm," Zhao Ling muttered happily. He then continued to dart around, searching for demonic beasts to fight.
"Hmm, it seems there's a battle ahead," Zhao Ling murmured, and he sped up his movements, lightning flashing with every step.
Zhao Ling stopped at a large tree, and in front of him, there was a battle that surprised him. There was a human in this highly feared forest.
"Hmm, where did this girl come from? Why is she so brave to enter here, and what's with her realm?" Zhao Ling muttered, surprised to see the realm of the girl who was fighting a level three Flame Tiger, which was equivalent to a Grand Master.
"That woman's realm is at the Warrior realm at such a young age. It seems she's not from this continent," he murmured again, continuing to watch the battle unnoticed.
Swoosh
Boom
"Roarrrr, boom, roarrrr"
The sound of explosions from the battle was evident. Although the woman had a higher realm, she was struggling a bit against the Flame Tiger because the physical strength of beasts was much greater than that of humans.
"Damn it, this Flame Tiger has such strong physique. It seems I have to use that," the woman muttered.
Swoosh
A golden aura emanated from her body.
"Alright, it's time for me to get serious," the woman said.
Swoosh
Boom
An explosion sounded as the Flame Tiger's claw and the woman's fist collided, and the Flame Tiger was sent flying with great force.
Roarrrrrrrrr
The tiger roared, and the battle resumed. Meanwhile, Zhao Ling, who saw the aura emanating from the woman's body, was shocked.
"Golden aura? Could this girl be from the Gu Clan? But how did she end up here?" Zhao Ling muttered, surprised to see the golden aura coming from the woman's body. How could he not be? The golden aura was unique to the Gu Clan because it was identical to the Golden Emperor Flame, which was their ancestral inheritance.
"A refined Heavenly Flame will give birth to a new Heavenly Flame. Could it be that my flame is a newly born Emperor Flame?" Zhao Ling murmured. What he said was true. Usually, a Heavenly Flame would be reborn if its place was empty, just like Zhao Ling's Heavenly Flame. After thousands of years, the place where he found it would definitely give birth to a new Heavenly Flame.
Zhao Ling continued to watch the battle until finally, the woman won. But just as the woman thought she was safe, another Flame Tiger appeared, having the same level as the one she had just killed.
"Damn it, there's another one. My energy is almost depleted. If I force myself to use that flame aura, I'll die," the woman muttered anxiously.
Swoosh
A flash of lightning appeared, and suddenly, the head of the newly arrived Flame Tiger separated from its body.
"Heh, a little girl dares to come to this forest? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by demonic beasts?" a sarcastic voice said, and soon a young man, Zhao Ling, appeared in front of her. Seeing the young man, the woman was surprised.
"Who are you?" the woman said cautiously, causing Zhao Ling's forehead to crease.
"I helped you. Instead of thanking me, you ask who I am?" Zhao Ling said, dissatisfied. The woman just remained silent, staring at the young man in front of her cautiously.
"Who is he? Why didn't I sense his presence? And how could he kill a level three Flame Tiger with a single slash?" the woman muttered to herself. She couldn't believe that there was a young man who had helped her in her time of crisis.
