Chapter 19 - Nether Devouring Flower (7)

At this moment, a guttural sound resounded throughout the forest. It was not really loud but it was enough for a Vigor Stage cultivator to slightly tremble. Arthur kneeled in one knee and did his best to withstand the pressure emanated by that growl.
After a couple of seconds, Arthur was finally able to stand up again.
Although the growl sounded rather distant from him. The pressure alone was enough to make him kneel. It definitely came from a very powerful beast, it was something that he would not be able to deal with. For the first time today, he was now sensing a slight feeling of fear within the deepest part of himself.
However, having come this far, he simply could not bring himself to give up. Furrowing his eyebrows, he suddenly came up with an idea, he turned his whole body around and walked a step over.
The scene before him had never changed, only the gray trees and flowers covered the whole area. Yet Arthur unstirringly had his expression relaxed, his mouth curved with a meaningful smile.
”Come out.”
These words were spoken by Arthur with extreme calmness. Yet, the response that came to him was none other than the rustling of leaves and the lilting wind.
”You have been following me since this, you must be tired. Come out for a bit and take a rest here with me.” Arthur extended his right hand towards a nearby tree, beside it are two large stones big enough for a person to sit.
The gentle smile on Arthur returned into a calm expression, however, the friendly atmosphere that he was exuding remained.
Not long after several moments have pa.s.sed, a figure wearing a white robe with a sword strapped to his waist walked out behind a tree. His hair was short and a small wound cut can be visibly seen on his left chin.
When Arthur squinted his eyes to inspect this person, he immediately felt a sharp feeling coming out from him as if he were some treasure being contained in a hidden box.
Bai Fuah was feeling somewhat awkward ever since Arthur had discovered him.
However, what mostly occupied his mind right now was much more important than this. A child who was half his age, a realm and a stage below him, a ”crippled” scion from a declining family, has discovered him! Moreover, it was a him who was seriously concealing himself!
He felt that his reaction from this trifling matter was highly immature, however, he was, nevertheless, greatly depressed about it. As one of the few geniuses who has reached the Yellow Blood Realm before the age of 30, he was confident about his strength when facing others even stronger than him, much less some brat with his half body still in his mother's womb.
Under the scrutinizing eyes of Arthur, Bai Fuah scratched his head and revealed a fiddly smile, ”This, little brother... I know you may not completely believe me, but I must say that I am actually just protecting you from the shadows...”
Arthur remained unmoved. After seeing the person in front of him, he was instantly astounded in his heart.
That was because he was completely ignorant of this person's ident.i.ty!
His age must be in the middle or late twenties, yet the cultivation level suppression he was getting from his aura is actually comparable to Heina and Darriel, which were both at the age of late forties. This kind of talent in White Alyssum City is already considered extraordinary. In that case, for a man half their age to have the same cultivation level, it must only mean that he is a rare genius!
Such a person must have been given quite a lot of limelight when he was in his junior days. So Arthur must have heard of him somehow. However, even after juggling his head countless times, he was still not clear about this man's ident.i.ty...
Arthur ignored his previous words just now and went directly straight to the point, ”Who are you?”
