--- Chapter 206 ---
Yunlong calmly looked at his reflection on the pond and smiled slightly because many things changed, but his inner self was still the same.
"I missed her cooking for some reason." Yunlong closed his eyes slightly.
He quickly sharpened his sense and surveyed the area around him, which caused the surroundings to become more apparent.
This area of Star Dou Forest was still the same, but because Yunlong's senses have become excessively more compelling, he could see even further.
It was for a moment, an earthquake abruptly shook the entire area several miles away from Yunlong, yet he already sensed it.
"An earthquake? That wasn't normal." Yunlong commented while looking at Kaguya, who casually sat beside the pond and played with water.
Kaguya saw the water trembling, and she quickly moved her gaze to a certain distance. "Do you also feel it?" She bluntly asked.
Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and answered, "Yeah."
Yunlong was about to lift his body off the ground, but a white flash suddenly jumped out of thin air and knocked his stomach.
'Ouch... It hurts my head.' Yuri slowly groaned while feeling tingling pain in her head.
Yuri slowly moved her blue eyes onto Yunlong and frowned because she sniffed a foreign smell from his body, which was weird for some reason.
'Master, you smell like grass.' Yuri commented while bouncing herself onto Yunlong's lap.
Kaguya suddenly grasped Yuri's fluffy body and looked at her with a curious gaze.
"Yunlong, this is..?" Kaguya asked while raising the white fox.
"She's Yuri, my pet." Yunlong plainly answered, which caused the white fox to feel displeased somehow.
"Hmm..." Kaguya slowly looked at Yuri's blue eyes. "Fox, it's been a while."
'I'm a cat, not a fox!' Yuri instinctively complained. 'Wait, d-did I just.'
Yuri couldn't help but widen her eyes in shock after years of bullying by Chu Xiaoyu and the other maids. She instinctively accepted that she was a cat.
'I'm a fox, yes FOX! Not a cat, remember that.' Yuri hurriedly looked at Kaguya, who tilted her head in confusion.
"So you're a cat or a fox..?" Kaguya slowly muttered. "So a cat?"
'NOOOOOO!'
'I'm not a cat!'
Yunlong shook his head slightly because his pet somehow experienced a mental breakdown. It's funny yet ironic at the same time, but he knows how to fix this.
"Yuri, catch." Yunlong suddenly threw a pill out of nowhere.
Yuri immediately released herself from Kaguya's grasp and quickly caught the hovering pill with her mouth. Her blue eyes shone brightly because an overjoyed taste arrived in her mouth.
'Master~, I want more.' Yuri demanded with a pitiful expression, which caused Yunlong to smirk slightly.
Yunlong threw a few more pills and silently commented, "It always works."
Yuri quickly caught the pill with her snowy paws and slowly moved onto Yunlong's lap again, which left Kaguya speechless for a second.
Kaguya sat beside Yunlong and looked at the pill on Yuri's paws. "Can I have a taste too?" She asked.
"Well, here." Yunlong showed her a white pill, which resembled a pure pearl.
"Hmm, feed me." Kaguya requested while opening her mouth.
Yunlong didn't say much and just shoved the pill into Kaguya's mouth, which caused her to savor the sweet taste.
Kaguya frowned because it was her first time tasting such a thing, but surprisingly she didn't dislike it. On the contrary, she actually quite prefers this sweet sensation.
"Can I have more?" Kaguya asked while trying to replicate Yuri's pitiful expression.
Yunlong couldn't help but laugh at this because it was amusing and bizarre for him.
'Is this woman really a moon goddess of shinobi's world? I can't really see it anymore.' Yunlong thought while shaking his head wryly.
Yunlong took a bag of pills from his inventory and gave it to Kaguya.
"Thank you..." Kaguya silently mumbled.
"You are welcome." Yunlong patted her head. "Well, let's take a one-hour break here."
Yunlong closed his eyes and calmly heard a natural breeze rustling in the woods. Kaguya gently leaned her head on his shoulder, and they enjoyed this silence together.
An hour later, Yunlong suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the inner core with a frown because he sensed a powerful spirit beast there.
He moved his gaze to Kaguya and Yuri and woke them up by flicking their foreheads.
"Why did you do that?" Kaguya slightly pouted while covering her forehead.
"Nothing." Yunlong smiled at her. "Let's continue our walk. I don't want to prolong it even further."
"Okay..." Kaguya nodded naturally, even though she felt annoyed.
Yunlong picked Yuri and placed her on his shoulder, which caused the white fox to stare at him menacingly.
'What?' Yunlong asked with a clueless tone.
'Hmph.' Yuri swayed her little head away.
They continued to walk into Star Dou Forest more and quickly were greeted with many spirit beasts.
At first, it was only a 5,000 years old spirit beast, which wasn't really a threat. However, they find more powerful spirit beasts as they delve more into the inner area.
Yunlong and Kaguya arrived at a nest of spirit beasts and ignored it for a while because it wasn't their objective, yet a crowd of spirit beasts suddenly ambushed them.
The ambush actually wasn't a hassle because Yuri defeated them with her spiritual shock, which knocked all of them.
'Should I kill them?' Yuri questioned while looking at Yunlong.
'No, you can't.' Yunlong calmly responded.
'Eh? Why?' Yuri tilted her head in confusion because her master was usually so savage and wouldn't really think much about this.
Yunlong glanced at the skies and answered, "I have an important task, and it would become annoying if we kill those spirit beasts."
"Just leave them be." He casually added and continued to walk away with Kaguya.
Yuri stared at the spirit beast she defeated and commented, 'You guys are lucky...'
She shook her tiny body and quickly followed Yunlong, leaving the spirit beasts with fear and confusion in their heart.
They walked for a few more hours, and an earthquake shook the entire forest, which caused Yunlong and Kaguya to frown.
--- Inner Area ---
They finally arrived at the boundary of the inner and core area, but Yunlong felt something was weird because they didn't get approached nor attacked by any spirit beast.
Yunlong knew the inner area of Star Dou Forest excessively was filled with territorial spirit beasts, but they didn't find one of them.
"Human... What do you want in my territory, human." A soothing female voice echoed in the area.
An emerald swan with a beautiful appearance slowly emerged from a pond near them and approached with a peaceful aura.
"100,000 years old spirit beast," Kaguya muttered solemnly.
"Oh?" The emerald swan looked at Kaguya with a curious gaze.
"I want to meet someone," Yunlong answered while standing in front of Kaguya.
"Someone? In a place like this?" The emerald swan slowly transformed into a gorgeous woman wrapped in a green dress.
She stood around 6 ft with a slender appearance wrapped in a green dress, which matched her long green hair. She possessed a beautiful pair of jade-green eyes and emerald crystal wings behind her.
"You're more than 100,000 years old," Yunlong stated while looking at the transformed swan. "I don't understand why you changed your appearance, though."
The emerald swan laughed and answered, "I don't sense any bad intent from you, but I transform myself because of her."
She looked at Kaguya with a calm yet curious gaze, which caused Yuri to jump beside Yunlong.
'Don't ignore me!' Yuri complained while releasing a cute cry.
"How cute." The emerald swan commented with a chuckle.
"How did you know that I didn't have bad intentions?" Yunlong suddenly arrived in front of her.
"I can kill you right now." He indifferently whispered.
Yunlong felt a space disturbance and smiled inside because a person suddenly walked out of the void.
"I dare you to kill her..." The person said with an indifferent tone.
He's a handsome middle-aged man in a black robe with golden lines. He stood around 2m with black hair with one golden strand hanging and deep golden-pupil eyes.
"Di Tian" The emerald swan looked at the ruler of the Star Dou Forest.
