Chapter 111 (1/2)
The giant golden lotus was currently opening. Golden Lotus’s excited voice sounded in Claire’s mind. “Old Ma, I’m full now, I’m going to go cultivate now. With your current strength, if you meet any experts, at the very least, you’ll still be able to escape unscathed. I’m going to be gone now.” Before Claire responded, Golden Lotus disappeared in the blink of an eye. There was no response no matter how much Claire called.
The faint golden hue gradually disappeared. Claire slowly stood up slowly and looked into the distance. She felt the burning sensation of another flower petal. Power, an indescribably large power flowed through her entire body. She silently clenched her fist. There would definitely be a day when she could remove the Dark mark! She definitely wasn’t the type of person who would wait to be slaughtered. God of Darkness! Just wait, not only will you remove this shameful mark, I will return the humiliation and disgrace two-fold!
“Claire!” Li Yuewen called out and ran over. Her clenched heart finally calmed down.
Claire slowly turned around. Seeing the group of people behind her, she suddenly smiled a strange, faint smile. Under everybody’s alarmed gaze, Claire extended two arms, smiling as she fell backwards.
But behind Claire was a bottomless abyss!
“Claire!”
Multiple alarmed voices rang out at the same time. Everybody moved instantly. What was Claire doing? Was she crazy? Suicide? Their hearts beating crazily, they charged madly to the edge of the precipice.
Leng Lingyun had already thrown himself over, preparing to fly off the cliff to save Claire.
But just when they reached the edge, boiling hot aura blew at them, making their entire body stiffen.
Whoosh….
There was the quiet sound of air flow. Golden light, dazzling.
Claire flew up slowly, smiling sweetly. She just floated gently.
Everybody stood rooted in place, eyes wide as they stared at such a scene.
Behind Claire was a pair of golden flames!
Molded flames?!
The golden light shined on their faces. Their eyes were affixed to the beautiful scene, all dumbstruck and at a loss for words. It was the first time they had seen such a technique! Flames could actually be molded into wings! And Claire’s clothes were still perfectly intact. The wings hadn’t damaged her clothes at all.
Claire flapped her wings and slowly flew upwards. She looked down towards them, a faint smile appeared on her face. “Sorry, I have worried you all.”
“You, you brat!” Li Yuewen came back to her senses. She angrily berated Claire. “You came here to mess around instead of sleeping? Don’t you know your body still hasn’t fully healed yet?”
“I’m sorry to have worried you.” Claire smiled and was about to fly down when she spotted a white figure approaching. Leng Lingyun also sensed it and turned around and saw the quickly approaching white figure. It was a human and their power was rather strong!
The people on foot also followed the two’s gazes and saw the white figure speedily approaching. It was probably an expert attracted by the strange anomaly.
“Let’s go, more people will come soon. We’ll talk more after getting back,” Leng Lingyun said quietly.
“Yes.” Claire nodded. This place, Feng Hua city, was a hidden den of talents. Individuals who could traverse into Wandering Mountain were no ordinary people. Soon, there would be many people rushing over.
But when they were in the middle of conversing, someone had already come. It was a stern middle aged man draped in a long, moon-white robe, a golden belt around his waist. They felt an indescribable pressure emanate from him. He was staring at the flame wings behind Claire.
Claire and Leng Lingyun slowly descended and Claire dispersed the flame wings.
“Let’s go,” Claire said to everyone else.
“Wait. Little lass, did you see who caused the strange scene in the sky?” the stern middle aged man asked. In his heart, the middle aged man didn’t think that it had been caused by any of the people before him. With the lightning from a few minutes ago, whoever was bearing it must have been injured whereas the people before him were perfectly fine. Clearly, they must have been attracted to the scene like he was and were just fortunate enough to be near at the right time so they were able to get here earlier than him.
“We didn’t see. When we got here, there was already nobody around,” Claire shook her head slightly, calm. They were just about to leave, but the middle aged man wasn’t willing to let them go just yet.
“Wait, little lass.”
“What is it?” Claire asked faintly.
“Are you from an ancient clan?” the middle aged man asked. His question was reasonable because of Claire’s flame wings. They were definitely not magic nor Dou Qi.
Claire shook her head; she didn’t plan on getting involved with the middle aged man. She turned around, about to leave.
