Chapter 297 Star Fruits
297 Chapter 297 Star Fruits
Amidst the silent atmosphere with mild worms ringing sound inside the dark starry forest,
Lin Lee glanced at his body and then looked at Lan Mei; both fell silent, and then he shook his head and said, "Anyway, thanks for informing me; I will find a way."
Lan Mei heard his reply, and then a charming smile appeared on her face.
"Well, you can hide for three more days; don't come in direct contact with sunlight or moonlight."
She remembered and then glanced around and asked thoughtfully, "By the way, from where did you get these star fruits? Are there any more?"
Lin Lee heard her inquiry and then nodded his head and replied, "There are a lot of star fruits in this forest; you just have to search for them."
Lan Mei was startled and then replied with a dissatisfied expression on her face,
"These star fruits are a wonder of heaven and earth; they can't be found through simple search; luck matters a lot. Greedy guy, you should have left a fruit or two for your elder sister."
Lin Lee heard her words fall silent; she didn't say anything anymore. Just as they were talking, both heard a rustling sound from the right, and they glanced at the figure who walked out from the shade, revealing himself.
"It seems you heard my advice; very good, that's why you are alive."
Lin Lee spoke playfully, looking at Fan Yu walking out, while Lan Mei glanced at him with a solemn and calm expression.
'Fan family members are always notoriously evil; I have to be careful,'
Lan Mei thought in her heart while recalling her father's instructions before participating in this exam; he instructed both sisters to be careful against the Fan family candidates; they are very ambitious and deceitful.
"You did it on purpose," Fan Yu spoke, his gaze staying on Lan Mei for a while and then glancing at Lin Lee coldly, clenching his fist.
Lin Lee shrugged his shoulder and then replied, "I just did a good thing and reminded you; it seems you didn't appreciate my kindness."
"I don't need your kindness," Fan Yu replied angrily and then turned around and walked toward the other direction of the forest.
While both Lin Lee and Lan Mei were looking at his back,
'It seems he has something that prevented those monsters from attacking him,' Lin Lee thought to himself.
"What have you done to him? Why is he releasing so much hatred against you?"
Lan Mei asked suspiciously, looking at Lin Lee with surprise flashing through her eyes,
Lin Lee glanced at her and then shook his head, replying with an innocent expression on his face, "I didn't do anything; I just reminded him when I passed by him during the monster chase."
Lan Mei glanced at his innocent expression speechlessly.
'That's called a scapegoat; this little brother's heart is really black. I thought the Fan family was evil, targeted by this demon. It's their bad luck.'
She thought to herself, feeling a pity in her heart,
Lin Lee then glanced at her and asked, "Do you know anything about this secret realm?"
Lan Mei nodded and then replied, "This realm is divided into five regions: ice, fire, rock, desert, and forest. There is a huge lake in the center of these five regions with an unknown island located in the middle. The wisdom masters warned us to not venture there; strong monsters are dormant in that region."
"Ohh, how do you know so much about this secret realm?" Lin Lee asked in surprise after hearing her words.
"Our ice empire has been associated with the dao sect since ages; even some elders and ancestors in the dao sect belong to our ice empire. That's why we know a lot about the secret realms in the dao sect."
Lan Mei replied with a proud expression on her face, then she remembered something, and her eyes lit up and she said, "Also, I remember there is another way to relieve the problem of star energy in your body, although this way is very hard, but it's possible."
Lin Lee raised his brow and asked suspiciously, "Didn't you say there is no way?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lan Mei shook her head and replied with a calm expression, "I didn't say there is no way; you can hide for a few days if you can't find any solution, but the way I am talking about right now was written in an ancient scripture I read in the royal library."
Lin Lee raised his brow in surprise and asked curiously, "What way?"
Lan Mei glanced at him hesitatingly and said, "It's about the fire and ice region. You have to find the sun flame fruit in the middle of the desert region and the ice moon fruit in the ice region. I think you should try; you may not find them, but if you find them, then it will benefit you a lot."
Lin Lee was startled and then asked strangely, looking at her, "Isn't the ice and fire region located in the opposite direction of this realm? How can I search both regions in such a short span? The examination will end in a week."
Lan Mei was startled hearing his words and then fell silent. After thinking for a while, her eyes lit up, and then she glanced at him and said,
"Although you can't move through both regions on your own, we can use the flying beasts. I saw a few flying beasts in the rock region nearby. These flying beasts are extremely fast; if we can tame one of them, then it's possible to reach both regions. Also, we will go to the fire realm first, which is on the other side of the rocky region."

Lin Lee nodded thoughtfully and then said, "Okay, lead the way; hurry up; we don't have much time; soon the sun will rise."
Lan Mei hurriedly nodded seeing Lin Lee land beside her, and then she turned around and walked toward the outside direction of the forest toward the rocky region.
Just after both of them left, a small area below the tree flickered like an afterimage and revealed the Fan Yu standing below,
'So this guy consumed the star fruits and encountered the trouble of distable star energy. I hope he doesn't get what he wants and dies; also, without him, my chances of getting first place increased by a lot. I just have to deal with other candidates.'
Fan Yu thought to himself with a playful smirk appearing on his face,
After a while,
Above the rocky mountains,
Lin Lee and Lan Mei stopped looking at a lot of huge, elephant-sized, dark, peregrine-shaped, flying beasts in the sky.
"Indeed they are fast creatures," Lin Lee commented, looking at these beasts.
"Of course, I don't lie." Lan Mei replied proudly and then thought of something and reminded,
"Also, pay attention to the region below; if we encounter Lan Bing, we can take her away with us."
Lin Lee nodded and then glanced at the peregrine-shaped beasts flying in the sky and then raised his hand toward them.
Path of emotion, Joy!
"Come here," Lin Lee spoke calmly as if ordering the beast; instantly a particular wave flashed through his hand toward the beast's direction in the sky.
Amidst the surprised expression on Lan Mei's face, the beasts turned in the sky and then flew back toward the ground in front of them.
Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!
One by one the beasts landed and glanced at the Lin Lee in front of them; one by one they called and bowed with joyful expression on their faces.
Lan Mei glanced at them in surprise and then asked, looking at Lin Lee with a curious expression on her face, "How did you do that?"
Lin Lee patted the golden beak of the peregrine beast and replied, "It's simple: I enhanced their kindness and suppressed their malice toward me."
"What? How is this possible?" Lan Mei exclaimed in shock, looking at him.
'Only wisdom masters can control the emotions of such a large beast group; he can do that while mastering the third path only. This guy is simply a monster; it's almost unbelievable such talent exists in this world.'
She thought to herself, while looking at Lin Lee with a bright gaze,
"Let's go," Lin Lee spoke and then walked toward the tall and thin beast with perfect aerodynamic physique.
After jumping above it and sitting down, Lin Lee glanced at the Lan Mei below,
Lan Mei nodded and then climbed up and sat down behind him, and then Lin Lee released the emotion aura through his hand, covering the whole body of the peregrine beast.
Instantly, with a deep step, it flew toward the sky at fast speed, flashing through the dark sky.
Lin Lee glanced at the starry light passing through the whole realm and falling toward the ground,
"These dark flying beasts only come out at night, and other golden beasts roam during the day; that's why their vision is so good at night."
Lan Mei commented, sitting behind her, looking at the other peregrine beast flying far away; some beast even flew past them at unimaginable speed, startling her.
Lin Lee shook his head hearing her words and then replied, looking at other similar beasts around, "These creatures enhance their vision using star energy."
Lan Mei nodded, and then both of them flew toward the fire desert region.
