Traveling through the first year of Panlong and Magnolia

Chapter 24 Bullying the weak and fearing the strong

In order to speed up the process, Andrew asked Howard to sit on the back of the golden tiger as well.

The five-meter-long golden tiger carried the three people without any impact, and its speed was still very fast. Every time it jumped, it jumped twenty meters. Because of the high speed, the wind on the tiger's back was strong. Howard held Janice and Ling'er and used his body to block the oncoming wind for them.

Andrew followed closely behind Jin Hu, carrying a long sword on his back. His speed was actually faster than Jin Hu's. He used explosive steps and ran a hundred meters with each flash. In order to keep pace with Jin Hu, he also suppressed his speed.

Not long after leaving Baihe City, a group of mercenaries saw a family hurrying on their way and quickly moved aside for fear of blocking their way.

After Andrew passed by, the captain of the mercenaries looked at his back with envy, his tone full of yearning: "I didn't expect there is such a strong man in Baihe City. Judging from his speed and the magic beast, he is at least an eighth-level warrior, or even a ninth-level warrior."

The person next to him laughed and said, "Yes, four years ago, when we had a big fight, both sides were level eight fighters. In my opinion, their speed was not as fast as that of the man just now."

"Not only that, did you notice that the adult's steps are also unique?" Another person interjected, "He is not running, nor is he walking in a straight line, but in a leaping manner. Before the afterimage on this side disappears, his real body has already reached the other side. It looks like two different people."

The others thought, that's right, and became interested, and started discussing Andrew's footwork...

After running at full speed for an hour, Howard stopped the golden tiger and jumped off its back.

"That's enough, Andrew. I think even if the Frey family wants to take revenge, they won't be able to catch up. If we hurry, Ling'er won't be able to bear it."

Andrew nodded: “Okay, let’s take a break first.”

Janice then realized that the reason why she ran so fast was to avoid the Frey family's revenge. Thinking of how Andrew scared Viscount Frey and Kate, she was a little worried.

“Andrew, will they send someone after us?”

Andrew smiled and patted his chest: "Don't worry, they don't have the guts. Most of the knights of the Frey family were killed by the Golden Tiger. Even if they want to retaliate, they don't have the power."

After carrying Ling'er down, Howard said, "Andrew, you were too impulsive just now. No matter what, they are nobles after all. The power of the nobles is not something we can resist. You know, high-level warriors are nothing to many nobles. Unless you become a legendary Sanctuary Warrior, you still have to be patient."

Andrew also knew this, but he also had his own considerations.

"I know. I will pay attention to it in the future. You don't have to worry. The Frey family is just a declining noble family. Just look at their fiefdoms. Whose fiefdom would be on the edge of the Yulan Empire? I did this because I understand his strength. If I encounter a more powerful noble, I will definitely be patient."

Ling'er seemed to understand what he said, her dark eyes widened. Suddenly, she said, "Brother, you are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, right?"

Huh? Andrew was choked.

After a while, the three adults suddenly burst into laughter.

When Ling'er saw this, she became even more confused...

After resting, the family continued on their journey. After walking for a long time, they still couldn't find a village or a shop. Janice felt a little guilty looking at the vast wilderness.

"Howard, do you know the way to the imperial capital?" she asked.

Howard blushed: "The farthest I've been is Baihe City, how would I know if I've been to the imperial capital!"

Andrew said, "It doesn't matter if we don't know the way. We just need to go west. When we get to the next city, we can buy a map. If we run into a caravan or mercenaries heading to the imperial capital, we can just join them."

In fact, this was also Andrew's plan.

However, this journey was longer than Andrew expected. The four people and the tiger walked for another afternoon, but they didn't see a single person, let alone a city or a caravan. Ling'er was tired of the scenery along the road and fell asleep in Janice's arms. Howard was also tired, so he sat on the golden tiger's back and leaned on Janice. Among the four people, only Andrew was still in good spirits.

Andrew was practicing the explosive step while he was on his way. The explosive step was an explosive step, and each step had a considerable distance. The explosive force of the explosive step could give Andrew a great initial velocity, allowing him to cross a hundred meters in a very short time. At present, a hundred meters was already the limit. If he wanted to extend it further, for example, to cross a hundred and twelve meters, Andrew could do it, but it would take longer.

This is the secret of explosive step.

On the other hand, the more explosive the power is, the harder it is to control. Andrew can easily cross a hundred meters with his explosive step, but he cannot easily cross ten meters in one tenth of the time, because this explosive power is not something he can control whenever he wants. Therefore, when traveling too slowly, it is not easy to use the explosive step. At their current speed, it is difficult for Andrew to use the explosive step.

"The explosiveness of the Explosive Step is too strong. With my current control, I cannot shorten the distance to less than ten meters with one step. However, I always feel that when I can integrate the Explosive Step into normal footwork and one step is less than one meter, my strength will be able to make a breakthrough." Thinking about the improvement of the Explosive Step, Andrew had a strong premonition in his heart.

“That’s right. The Explosive Step is actually somewhat similar to Linley’s practice of the Earth Pulse. Both of them come into contact with the Law. When Linley practiced the Earth Pulse, he first practiced from the 1st level of vibration wave to the 256th level of vibration wave. As his understanding of the Law continued to deepen, he practiced from the 128th level to the 64th level, and finally returned to the st level. The practice of the Explosive Step is the same, first from simple to complex, and then from complex to simple.”

Andrew thought about how when he first created the Explosive Step, he could only take a dozen meters in one move. Later, as the Explosive Step became more and more perfect, he was able to take a hundred meters in one step. Now, he wanted to control the Explosive Step to ten meters, or even one meter, so that he could achieve perfection. This was similar to the process of Linley practicing the Earth Pulse.

As time went by, Andrew's control over the explosive step became stronger and stronger. At first, he could run a hundred meters at the longest and fifty meters at the shortest. Along the way, his understanding of the explosive step became deeper and deeper. In just one afternoon, he controlled the explosive step to ten meters. This kind of understanding and talent is definitely far beyond those geniuses.

"Shortening the distance from 50 meters to 10 meters is indeed a big improvement, but the next step is the most difficult. If we want to shorten the explosive step from 10 meters to 1 meter, the difficulty will increase dozens of times."

The road of cultivation is not always smooth, and the further you go, the harder it is to walk. When he first started practicing, Andrew was able to achieve breakthroughs many times in a few years, but after becoming a high-level warrior, he might not be able to achieve a breakthrough even once in several years.

This was before reaching the Saint Realm. When one reaches the Saint Realm, the time required for cultivation is measured in hundreds of years. Anyone who can achieve a breakthrough in a hundred years is considered a genius.

Andrew was fully prepared for the hardships of cultivation. Therefore, he was not impatient and improved his skills little by little.

Andrew was unable to feel the passage of time while practicing, until Howard called him. When he looked up, he realized that it was already dark.

"Let's rest here tonight!" Howard took a large package off Jin Hu's back. The package contained a tent, which they purchased in Baihe City.

Andrew felt a little guilty, as he had just forgotten that his family was around. With an apologetic smile, he and Howard propped up the tent together. Janice lit a bonfire not far from the tent, and Ling'er helped carry the food.

Soon, dinner was ready, and the family sat together, enjoying the dinner in a warm atmosphere. Jin Hu yawned out of boredom and lay aside.

After dinner, everyone chatted for a while, mainly about their imaginations for the future. Ling'er talked the most, saying that she also wanted to live in a big manor and have many other things, etc. Janice listened to her with a smile and said that she must have a beautiful garden in the future. It can be heard that they are all looking forward to the new life.

Andrew agreed from time to time, feeling very happy, and he enjoyed the warmth the most. At the same time, he secretly vowed in his heart that he must fulfill his family's wishes.

Later in the evening, Janice and Ling'er went into the tent to rest, while Andrew was still sitting by the campfire. Howard said, "Andrew, let's take turns to watch the night. You come in the first half of the night, and I'll take over in the second half."

Andrew knew that he was taking special care of himself, and the second half of the night was much harder than the first half. Shaking his head, he smiled and said, "No, father, you go to sleep, Jin Hu and I will keep watch together. You know, I am still a magician, and meditation is enough to restore my spirit."

Howard was reluctant at first because he didn't want to see his son suffer so much. Deep down, he felt guilty towards Andrew, thinking that his incompetence caused his son to bear so many responsibilities. However, Andrew was very determined, and in the end, he had to give in and enter the tent.

Looking at the starry sky, Andrew felt relaxed and happy. Patting Jin Hu's head, he chuckled and said, "Jin Hu, let's go together tonight."

The golden tiger shook slightly and growled, as if to say that it was okay.

Andrew put the long knife aside, lying on the belly of the golden tiger, looking up at the starry sky. This world was the same as the previous life, with countless stars in the sky, gathering into a sea of ​​stars. Looking at it, he gradually became addicted, and the starry sky began to change into different forms in his eyes, sometimes spinning like a whirlpool, sometimes like a storm, sometimes turning into a long dragon, and sometimes turning into a colorful phoenix...
