The colorful light rays reached Caspian and slowly descended. Caspian could finally see that the colorful light rays were a huge circular fan, and two people stood on top of it.
One of them was a lady in white, who appeared to be in virtual-novel.net twenties. The other was a little girl in a hair bun, who seemed to be around seven years old.
When Caspian saw them, virtual-novel.net forced himself to stand. Neither of them was old, yet they could fly in the air. This must be something only an immortal could do! Hence, those people would not be killers that Carson sent.
When the circular fan landed, the little girl jumped down and looked around. The bloody scene did not seem to have affected her.
“There’s indeed spiritual Qi’ s wave motion. Your senses were right. A battle just happened here.” Soon, the little girl turned virtual-novel.net head over to look at the lady in white, who was virtual-novel.net senior.
The lady in white shook virtual-novel.net head slightly. “However, this was a battle between the martial art practitioners, and it’s the Talisman of Concentrated Vitality‘s wave motion. Let’s just go.”
“Oh!” The little girl nodded and was about to jump up the circular fan when virtual-novel.net saw something. Then, virtual-novel.net pointed in a direction and yelled, “Look, there’s a survivor!”
The little did not wait for the lady in white to answer, and virtual-novel.net bounced toward the person. Next, virtual-novel.net exclaimed in surprise, “There’s another person, but… Hey, you should come over and take a look.”
Caspian was less than a meter away from that little girl. Then, his body muscles moved, and the pain was so excruciating virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net was being torn apart. The injuries caused by the two attacks were far more severe than virtual-novel.net thought. Nonetheless, Caspian was thankful that virtual-novel.net was him. Otherwise, if virtual-novel.net were just another martial artist, virtual-novel.net would already be dead.
Caspian watched as the little girl squatted and examined the fainted Penny. He wanted to get up, but virtual-novel.net could not.
Whether it was the little girl or the lady in white, they only spared virtual-novel.net a glance when they realized virtual-novel.net was alive. After that, they ignored Caspian completely. At that moment, the two were focused on Penny.
“This…” The lady in white approached them and followed in the direction the little girl pointed.
Soon, virtual-novel.net saw a few green blades of grass not far from Penny’s cheek, and they were swaying in the wind. It was only a few small blades of grass, but virtual-novel.net could feel a faint spiritual Qi escaping from them.
The lady in white reached out virtual-novel.net hand, and the few tiny blades of grass were instantly sucked to virtual-novel.net hand. After checking them for a while, the lady in white reached out again and wiped the wound on Penny’s forehead. Then, virtual-novel.net smelled it, and a solemn expression appeared on virtual-novel.net face.
The little girl raised virtual-novel.net head and looked at the lady in white excitedly. “So, is she? Is she?”
Although Caspian did not know what the two were discussing, virtual-novel.net was sure that these two “immortals” appeared interested in Penny.
“Save her… Please, save her…” Caspian uttered with great effort, and his eyes flashed with a hopeful light.
As virtual-novel.net was badly injured, his voice sounded like a murmur. It took the little girl a while before virtual-novel.net could notice Caspian.
“She’s my maid. Please, save her.” Caspian said in a hoarse voice.
The girl only answered with an “Oh!” and virtual-novel.net did not say anything else.
The lady in white seemed serious. Caspian saw virtual-novel.net flip virtual-novel.net wrist, and then a jade plate appeared out of thin air. This action was like an eye-opener for Caspian. Nonetheless, virtual-novel.net also noticed a carving of two triangles side by side at the bottom of the jade plate. Furthermore, the same pattern was also on the two girls’ cuffs.
The lady in white took a drop of Penny’s blood and wiped it on the jade plate. A moment later, the jade plate was glowing with a faint white light. Seeing that, the lady in white was touched, and the little girl who was tiptoeing to see the jade plate instantly covered virtual-novel.net mouth. There was a hint of surprise and joy flashing in the kid’s eyes. “She truly is a…”
“Flora Form.” The lady in white nodded.
Then, virtual-novel.net took a deep breath as if virtual-novel.net had made a decision and maneuvered the colorful circular fan over. Next, virtual-novel.net placed Penny on it.
“I can’t believe that we found a Flora Form here. If we didn’t, virtual-novel.net talent might be undiscovered. Moreover, I’m sure our master is willing to accept virtual-novel.net as a disciple if we bring virtual-novel.net back,” the lady in white said.
Caspian did not understand what a Flora Form was. However, virtual-novel.net was confident that Penny had something that the immortals valued! The immortals were willing to accept virtual-novel.net as their disciple!
That thing seemed to be virtual-novel.net blood.
Later, the little girl pointed at Caspian and asked, “What should we do with this guy? He’s dying, so why don’t we just end his life? We can’t let the news about Flora Form leaked.”
Caspian was stunned when virtual-novel.net heard that.
The girl was young, and Caspian did not even provoke her, yet as soon as virtual-novel.net opened virtual-novel.net mouth, virtual-novel.net said virtual-novel.net wanted to kill him.
The lady in white shook virtual-novel.net head and answered, “We can’t do that. This isn’t Cloud Valley’s territory. It’ll be bad for us if someone finds traces of us simply killing and disposing of others. Moreover, according to his injuries, he’ll die in at most half a day more. Let’s just leave virtual-novel.net to die.”
‘Cloud Valley…’ Caspian secretly remembered the name and the images on their cuffs.
As Caspian’s injuries were severe and virtual-novel.net lost too much blood, it was a miracle for virtual-novel.net to endure it until now. Even though Penny was taken away, and virtual-novel.net did not know when they would meet again, or perhaps they would never even see each other again. Caspian was glad that Penny was in safe hands. Besides, the immortals valued her, and maybe virtual-novel.net would achieve something great in the future. Furthermore, now that Caspian knew about the two girls’ background, virtual-novel.net could finally be at ease.
Soon, Caspian felt a deep sense of exhaustion, and his eyes were heavy. Even the conversions between the two girls sounded vague.
“Clean this place.”
“Eh?”
“Destroy everything that could let other people identify one’s identity. This way, even if someone knows that Flora From is missing, they won’t be able to find clues that indicate virtual-novel.net identity with all these people’s clothes and belongings.”
“Wow! You’re amazing.”
“Go ahead and quickly do it. Remember not to leave any trace!”
“It’ll be faster if you just use your magical power.”
“If I use my power, it‘ll create a residual spiritual Qi wave. Don’t you remember how we found this place? Besides, as long as I leave the slightest magical power, someone can tell that this is Cloud Valley’s power. Are you trying to dig our graves?”
”But Cloud Valley isn’t even in this northern district…”
”It’s because we’re not in the northern district that we can’t leave anything that can be used against us. Our visit this time is already considered as trespassing another sect’s territory. If they found out… Well, with my current realm, I won’t be able to defend us.”
***
The duo seemed to believe that Caspian would surely die from his injuries, so they did not deliberately lower their voices. As the two were talking, Caspian felt his body was being flipped over. Later, virtual-novel.net vaguely saw the circular fan floating midair and disappeared. He did not know how long passed by, but virtual-novel.net heard muffled thunders in his ears, and a cold feeling fell on him.
It seemed to be raining.
Caspian gradually lost consciousness and fainted. At the same time, his blood dripped on the Earring of Echo. Next, the surface of the earring was suddenly glowing in the same mysterious purple light as before.
