Chapter 310 - Yaoguai (2/2)
At the right was another skyship with a familiar structure, likely common in the Dusk Zone. It was medium-sized and contained a few life auras that were particularly vibrant. It was floating off the side and seemed to be waiting for something.
Eshe's eyes narrowed briefly, but quickly returned to normal. ”Another group has found the location.” Her voice was calm, as if this was already within her calculations. The others didn't speculate, but they kept their cautious gazes on the foreign skyship.
Esi soon stopped the skyship when it reached a thousand meters away from the mountain. She stayed in the air, unwilling to land, and performed a seal. The seal activated a formation beneath the skyship and enabled it to remain suspended.
”The trove will open in three days,” Eshi informed everyone, but didn't say how she gained this knowledge. Yan Zaizen didn't bother asking.
An aura fluctuated on the foreign skyship. Everyone's eyes shined with varying lights. A figure shot out from the skyship and approached.
This figure was a woman. She had short light-blue hair, a tomboyish look to her as she wore a man's martial arts attire, but she was too beautiful to be mistaken for a man, and her breasts were ample. As she flew over, they slightly swayed, as if they weren't supported by a brassiere.
Her aura was stable at the second-floor of the Heavenly Genesis Realm.
Bronzelion's eyes flickered with heat, but he only looked and nothing more. The others remained calm. No one left the skyship to meet her.
Instead, she arrived nearby and stayed floating in mid-air with a soft smile. Her eyes swept all their figures, lingering on Bronzelion for a split second longer than the others. ”It's a pleasure to meet you all, Fellow Daoists. I'm assuming you're here for the inheritance trove?” She didn't beat around the bush but directly asked.
Yan Zaizen couldn't help but give her another look.
”Yes, we are. Daoist?” Eshe stepped up, claiming the position of leader of the group. When she did, the light-blue haired beauty smiled and honed her gaze on Eshe, ignoring the others.
”Daoist Iceborn,” she introduced herself.
”Daoist Eshe.”
”Truly a good name.” The woman didn't seem to be in a rush, kindly exchanging pleasantries. She may have been direct initially, but she still maintained a cordial attitude. After a brief exchange, ”My group of Daoists wishes to avoid conflict and explore the trove together. What do you say...whatever is claimed belongs to them?”
Eshe shifted her gaze towards the ship and pondered briefly. She sent a message, but it wasn't to Yan Zaizen, but one of the black knights. The knights didn't respond verbally like before, but replied through sense. No one else could sense this exchange except Yan Zaizen.
He had refined a Soul Regalia into his eyes that enabled him to see soul transmissions, but not heavenly transmissions, so he could only see the lines of the exchange. The only issue was that Yan Zaizen couldn't intercept or know what's within the message.
However, a fact caused him to furrow his brows. Earlier, Eshe used a heavenly sense-based transmission, but now she used a soul transmission which is far harder to perceive via methods. He took note of this.
After a short period, ”Agreed.” Eshe accepted her conditions, but no oath had been sworn. Yan Zaizen realized the exchange wasn't meant to dissuade conflict, but only an acceptance of waiting until the trove opens to begin.
The woman smiled and looked at Bronzelion. She sweetly smiled at him and left. The others noticed this and strange glimmers emerged into their eyes.
Yan Zaizen wanted to laugh. Bronzelion eyes flickered with anger. That woman was quite crafty. It was even more so considering that Bronzelion and Eshe had discovered the trove. The others immediately threw their suspicions over. However, regardless if that were the case or not, the others would immediately become suspicious and be on their guard against him.
”Three days,” Eshe repeated and sat next to Esi in the lotus position. She was cultivating to ensure she was at her peak state. Yan Zaizen saw this everywhere in the Asura Phantom Realm.
He sat down and cultivated too, but in a corner away from the others. The others did their own preparations to ready their states.
Yan Zaizen felt something odd since he arrived, but he couldn't place it initially. However, after a bit, his mind flared up in thought. ”Where's the Yaoguai…”
