Chapter 132
The burning sensation on her back steadily grew more intense.
She had passed the eighth level of the Golden Lotus grimoire!
Which meant the tribtion lightning would soon follow!
This time, Golden Lotus was in deep sleep, so she wouldn’t have Golden Lotus protecting her! For the eighth level, she had to face seven strikes of lightning!
Without Golden Lotus’s protection, how was she going to withstand seven strikes?
ire’s rapid departure left most confused. All of their gazes followed after the figure leaving in a hurry.
Without a word, Feng Yixuan extended his wind wings and chased in pursuit. Shui Wenmo cursed in a low voice and dashed after them on foot.
Jean and the others naturally understood what was going on. ire had another breakthrough!
The emperor frowned then turned to ask Li Mingyu, “Duke Li, what is going on?” Li Mingyu’s face was full of worry.
“Your highness, we have some private matters to attend to. May we take our leave?” Li Mingyu requested, watching CLaire’s figure disappear into the distance, farther and farther away.
Before the emperor could reply, An Lisha said hastily, “Your majesty, please take care of the situation. I will exin once I return.” Immediately after, An Lisha flew up and followed after Feng Yixuan in pursuit.
Jean and the rest also hurriedly left, dashing out the city.
The emperor frowned slightly, watching An Lisha disappear into the distance, but he still immediately waved his hand to settle the crowd. The stage had already been destroyed so the tournament could only be dyed until tomorrow.
In the air, ire flew as fast as she could followed by Feng Yixuan and An Lisha. In the sky, thunder clouds were already amassing.
ire’s heart sunk lower and lower. She had already sensed that the lightning would be different this time. Without Golden Lotus, would she be able to withstand them all?
“ire! ire!” Feng Yixuan anxiously called from behind.
“The hell are you shouting for!” An Lisha said. She speedily gave chase. After passing by Feng Yixuan, she caught up to ire.
“Follow me!” An Lisha grabbed ire by the wrist immediately, forcing her to stop.
“It’s you!” ire looked at An Lisha with shock. This woman was the one from that night! With absolute certainty!
“Ma, what are you doing?” Feng Yixuan also reached them.
What? This woman was Feng Yixuan’s mother?
“ire, your heavenly tribtion ising, correct?” An Lisha’s words made ire freeze with shock. How did Feng Yixuan’s mother know?
“Yes, so I cannot stay inside the city. The heavenly tribtion will not be so small this time. If I stayed, many people would have been involved.” ire did not try to hide anything.
“Go!” An Lisha grabbed Feng Yixuan with her other hand and made all three of them stand together. Then she pulled out a scroll and tore it. With a white sh of light, the three’s figures disappeared on the spot.
Also able to fly, Leng Lingyun was the first to arrive. From far away, he could see the three had disappeared abruptly, so he understood that the woman had used a small scale spatial teleportation scroll! An extremely valuable spatial teleportation scroll that could teleport up to five people!
Where did they go? Leng Lingyun frowned, scanning about, but unable to find anything. He looked up at the sky. The dark clouds were dispersing rapidly. No! Not dispersing, but quickly chasing after another direction! They disappeared in an instant!
Jean and the rest had also arrived at this moment, but they only saw Leng Lingyun floating in the air alone, his expression solemn.
“Leng Lingyun, where’s ire?” Summer scanned around anxiously, only to see no one.
“She was taken away.” Leng Lingyun said quietly. He slowly descended.
“Taken away? Who took her away?” Summer grew worried.
“The woman who had just been chasing, Lagark’s minister of defense, An Lisha.” Of course Leng Lingyun knew An Lisha’s identity. Although the main temple of the Temple of Light was not located in Lagark, the Temple of Light was very familiar with the state of affairs in Lagark.
“What!” Walter eximed. “She took away ire? To where? What does she want? Why didn’t you stop her? What if she wants to kill ire now that ire is wounded?”
Walter’s worries were not unfounded. The rtionship between Amparnd and Lagark was very strained. With the strength ire had disyed, Lagark would definitely take notice and be on guard.
“I do not know. When I had arrived, An Lisha had already taken ire away with the spatial teleportation scroll. But you should not worry because ire is currently a priest of the Temple of Light. Lagark will definitely not instigate a fight with the Temple of Light.” Leng Lingyun’s voice was low, but exceptionally certain. Even the most sessful and strongest country, Amparnd, would not dare to go against the Temple of Light, not to mention Lagark, whose strength was below that of Amparnd’s.
“In other words, ire is safe?” Summer let out a long sigh of relief. She had almost forgotten that ire was currently a priest of the Temple of Light!
Jean frowned deeply. Even if ire was safe, where was she? Where did that woman take her to? What was her purpose?
Jean stood silently, not moving.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to ire. If my guess is correct, that woman wants to help her,” Leng Lingyun said in a serious voice.
“F*ck! Where are they?” At this moment, Shui Wenmo had also bounded over energetically, glorious, but he only saw Jean and the rest of the group standing there.
“She was brought away. An Lisha used a spatial teleportation scroll,” Leng Lingyun said faintly.
“Aiya! Why didn’t they bring me too?” Shui Wenmo yelled angrily.
“Do you know where they went?” Jean turned and said to Shui Wenmo in a low voice, a trace of worry evident in his voice.
“I don’t know.” Shui Wenmo shrugged, serious.
“If you don’t know, then don’t say such misleading words!” Summer humphed coldly. She had be a bit angered seeing Shui Wenmo’s attitude.
“Aiya, long time no see, little thief,” Shui Wenmoughed and greeted Summer.
“Humph!” Summer turned away, ignoring him.
“In other words, Lady An wants to help ire...” Li Mingyu said with a low voice. “We don’t even know where they went, so all we can do is wait.
Li Yuewen looked worried, wishing to speak, but stopped after she caught Li Mingyu’s eyes.
“Let’s return and wait. There’s no way Aunty An will harm her future daughter inw. Perhaps they will appear with great bravado.” Shui Wenmo stretchedzily. Clearly, he had great faith in An Lisha.
Shui Wenmo did not notice that his usage of the phrase daughter inw had caused a ripple in a few people’s hearts when they heard this.
Future daughter inw? Why did this phrase cause a sense of unease? Jean lowered his gaze. He silently turned away and left. Leng Lingyun watched Jean’s retreating figure, sighed softly in his heart, then followed. Walter cursed internally. Just because you say she’s An Lisha’s future daughter inw she will be? F*ck, what a joke.
In the end, they all returned.
Right at this moment, ire opened her eyes and discovered that she had arrived somewhere unfathomable. With a sweep of her gaze, she found that there were a few wooden houses circled by a low, wooden fence with a fewrge trees nearby. It seemed like a very ordinary farmer’s home, but once she looked in a different direction, she discovered what was strange. Lifting her head, she saw that the blue sky was without clouds, yet there were birds flying. She squinted. Those small birds were seabirds! This was an ind?! Listening closely, ire actually heard the sound of intense wind whipping past. ire concentrated her senses and was shocked once more. The small ind was surrounded by a wind barrier. An unusual, intenseyer of wind surrounded the small ind, isting itpletely from the outside world.
“Master... master, hurry ande outside!” An Lisha yelled at the top of her lungs.
“The hell are you shouting about? You just arrived and you’re already yelling!” An energetic yet coarse voice retorted from inside the house.
“The lightning is about to strike, how could I not shout! Come out to block it right now!” An Lisha was even more rude, her voice yelling back louder than before.
“Huh? What lightning? What you’re cultivating will not draw any lightning.” Even though the voice inside the house sounded doubtful, there was the sound of quick footsteps.
An old man in faint blue appeared at the entrance of the wooden house, his pair of eyes bright. He emitted an ineffable, bold aura. His brows and beard were already white, long, yetbed neatly.
“Master, hurry and save us! The lightning will arrive any second!” An Lisha anxiously said.
But the old man ignored An Lisha and turned to Feng Yixuan, smiling widely. “Oi, you brat. You’re already this big.”
“Ah, old man, you’ve be more energetic. Your brows and beard became even more manly,” Feng Yixuanughed as he replied.
ire was a bit shocked. Feng Yixuan, who was usually so unruly and arrogant, was actually acting so lovable and obedient?
“Of course.” The old man did something that made ire go 囧. She watched as the old man pulled out a smallb out of one of his wide sleeves and startedbing his brows carefully, then his beard. He appeared extremely pleased.
Now Feng Yixuan switched to the topic at hand. “Old man, hurry and help my future wife, and block the lightning.”
“What?! You brat, you actually started chasing after girls?!” the old man eximed loudly. Only then did his gazend on ire. ire was currently in a very sorry state, her clothes torn, and although her wounds had already stopped bleeding, her clothes were still stained with blotches of red. She looked very terrifying.
“Master!” An Lisha started getting a bit urgent. Storm clouds had already started gathering overhead.
“Hmm?” went the old manzily. Then he looked up towards the sky and stroked his beard gently. Only then did he say disdainfully, “What the heck are you getting worried for, isn’t it just seven lightning strikes?”
