MTADW : Chapter 105
🕑 Added 2024-06-17 14:13:19 +0000 UTC[Tai Lung's POV]
Math isn't real.
My current feeling was similar to one you would feel after being told that statement.
All of your understanding and the beliefs you had cultivated for years were broken in one simple sweep of a moment.
I felt my mind lagging as I tried to process the existence of the female hundreds of metres away from me.
It didn't make sense.
My eyes started glowing bright yellow as I looked at her again. My eyes could see the different colours and nature of chi but right now, I was questioning that ability.
The world was filled with different colours, named and unnamed because they could not be seen by other people. Normally, a person holds their chi inside their body and everything in this world -inanimate or animate - has chi within them.
It was the energy of the universe.
The most prominent being the world's chi which covered everything like air. So you could imagine what the world of chi looked like.
That was how it normally should be but few remarkable individuals could let their chi seep out of their body and become one with it. Their chi existed in absolute harmony with the chi of everything else and they could conjure miracles through it.
We call that inner peace back home.
What I was seeing in the female was similar to inner peace but starkly different. Her chi was leaking out of her body but unlike in the case of inner peace, her chi did not harmonize with the chi of the world. Instead..
It commands.
The world folded and bent to the will of her chi. If I had to compare it, I would say it was like someone walking under water but the water refused to wet them.
It was a baffling sight. Especially for me as I did not only see but also felt it.
"Ridiculous," I said with a smirk of disbelief. My eyes glazed over in deep interest and cat-like curiosity.
The female paused in her steps and she held her nose up. She took a sniff a couple of times before her masked face slowly turned towards me.
She saw me and we locked eyes.
At least that's what I think, I wouldn't know because she was completely covered.
Speaking of which, I finally snapped out of my wonder and observed her physical appearance. My eyes narrowed as I observed the outline of her body - she was covered everywhere except her ears and tails which were revealed.
From her tails and ears, I could conclude that she was a snow leopard.
But that's not all...
My sharp eyes - which could decipher how strong or well-trained a warrior was just by looking at their body - noticed something odd.
I could see through the thickest armour and pinpoint the tiniest weakness in my opponents. so her masks and her clothes could never hide anything from me.
Her body structure, the length of her limbs and the way her muscles were developed tell a natural-born weakness. Not because she was untrained, she was just weak by birth.
The shape of her face, the locks of hair behind her hood which were too long to truly hide, the mounds of fats on her chest which were undeniably breasts.
From all of these observations, I could tell that she was an animal I had seen before, but not in this life.
..
..
A human.
It's a girl.
But she had cat ears, so a beastgirl?
The girl tore her gaze away from me and turned around while I was busy with my thoughts. Then under my dumbfounded gaze, she walked away.
Wait, looking closely, she was running away from me.
"Huh? Hey, wait!" I said and jumped down from the roof.
Why was she running away when she was clearly the one who approached me first? Did she just play hard to get after she caught my interest?
Whatever, I was too intrigued to let her go now. I would follow her to the ends of the earth to find answers.
A chi that could command other chi and also a human girl? How could I let such a thing escape my grasp?

[3rd POV]
'Ahhh!! Why is he following me!!?' Mei screamed in her mind and felt like crying.
She had heard of tall tales and unbelievable stories about Tai Lung but it seemed she had never truly comprehended the weight behind those tales.
Until she met him.
Cause what the fuck is up with that chi!!!?
Suffice it to say, that the Empire of Tibet lacked great warriors and kung fu masters compared to China. So she had never been in the presence of a truly powerful person.
The strongest person she had met was the captain of the elite squad of Tibet. But he was a mere ant compared to what she just saw.
Kung Fu masters. These were warriors who had dedicated their lives to a form of martial arts that could literally change the limits of their bodies and evolve their chi.
So much so that the universe had to create a different afterlife for these remarkable warriors called the spirit realm. An afterlife where people who had mutated chi - which could not be recycled by the universe anymore - go to spend the rest of eternity in peace.
She had never seen those warriors. She thought people had the same chi which varied only in their quantity and quality.
And the first one she met with such mutated chi happened to be Tai Lung, the strongest warrior to ever exit.
The nature of her chi made it so that she was born with inner peace so she was very acute to sensing chi. It was as sensitive as any of her other senses.
So when she finally met Tai Lung.
It freaked her out.
She was thrown into an abyss of uncertainty. Forget about the mission, could she even survive this encounter? He was following her now for god sake!!
What she felt was not only the different nature of his chi. But also its heavy presence which nearly choked her lungs even when suppressed.
It was dangerous.
He was too dangerous.
He was too strong.
She did a quick turn to one corner and quickly went inside the restaurant. She slammed the door shut behind her and with her back leaning on the door, she took deep breaths to calm herself.
She did not even have time to care about the weird looks she was getting from the waiters and the rest of the customers as she calmed her beating heart.
Okay, okay.
That was not professional at all.
But it's fine.
She just lost her composure for a moment. Next time she would be ready and then she could accomplish her mission.
She released a final breath and then she moved to one of the windows beside the door. She peeked outside ever so carefully and made sure she was not followed.
"Why did you run away?" Someone whispered in her ears as she was leaning down to take a peek.
The voice was deep and held a sharp edge like a sword. Every word said in that voice would surely hold more weight than any other word.
Tai Lung.
She knew this because after he said that, he stopped whatever he was doing to follow her unnoticed. His presence burst forth once more.
Oh, she was so screwed.
But she tried to act cool.
"I am not running away." She said, but her voice came out weaker than she wanted. It was not firm like his, her voice evaporated.
This was going to go a lot differently than she planned in her head. Because she never accounted for the fact that Tai Lung would be so different from anyone else she had dealt with.
Or maybe she was overestimating herself.
In front of the strongest in the world, she never stood a chance.
She turned around and looked at his golden eyes. She put a hand on her heart and her bell jingled, giving her stregth.
The atmosphere became icy as the mood was shifted. Tai Lung raised an eyebrow.
Things might have started out rather unexpectedly but she was determined to complete her mission. She would do everything in her power.
Silence stretched as she took that time to gather her thoughts and analyse the situation.
Her thoughts got lost in his eyes. Deep yellow that held childlike curiosity, intrigue and amusement. There was no fear or hostility in them.
Not because of ignorance but because of confidence. What could hurt him in this world?
She took note of that.
'Okay, change of plan....'
..
"You, were you stalking me?"
