Chapter 102 - Hawk in the Sky (1/2)
With a loud howling, a hawk flies out of the deep valley.
Sky of the Lost Land is so blue. River runs and forest flourishes. Deer are drinking water and tigers are catching sheep. Everything is so peaceful and harmonious.
Looked down from the sky, the view here is even better… Humans always bear the dream of flying, which is the reason why s.p.a.ce becomes so attractive and fairies in myths who ride on clouds are wors.h.i.+pped.
This is entirely different from flying on a plane.
Lin Luoran looks down from the back of Goldie and has the feeling of a real cultivator. Cultivation, cultivation, what is the purpose of cultivation? Isn’t it the joy of flying around the world?
Li Xi’er is screaming. If she weren’t in the mid-air, she’d like to stand up and jump because nothing else can express the thrill in her heart.
She was born in a mortal family. When she was seven years old, her master found pure gold nature in her and then she was taken to the school to cultivate. Living in a secluded mountain, this little girl grew up to be innocent. As a talented cultivator, she always enjoyed the best things the school could provide. Therefore, Li Xi’er never had to compete for anything, and she was not aware of the sinister side of the human heart — the school asked nothing from her but to focus on cultivation. Her parents lived an affluent life in the mortal world, and a bright future was waiting for her.
Li’s personality is perfect for cultivation, but she is not progressive enough!
Li Xi’er has the one-in-a-century pure Taoist root. Her school certainly doesn’t simply hope that she can enter the level of Laying Foundation. Besides, with the nature of gold, she must gain more sharp vigor to match her nature. Otherwise, the gap between her state of mind and her physique will become an obstacle on the path of cultivation.
However, Li’s life has been going so smoothly compared with her peers! She never had to do things proactively, nor did she ever work hard, until she met Lin Luoran. Li is in the medium stage of Training Qi, and Lin is in the later stage. Their levels of cultivation are similar, but there is a huge gap between their strengths. Also, Sister Lin can cast water and wood spells, which means that she has at least two natures!
Sitting on Goldie’s back, Li Xi’er enjoys the beautiful view and the will of fighting rises in her heart. As a mixed-nature cultivator, Sister Lin has cultivated herself to become so powerful. Li realizes that she should also work harder from now on.
Li Xi’er never intends to be the best. She only hopes that if anything like this happens again, she will be able to get herself out of the trouble instead of being trapped on the terrace and waiting for her brothers and sisters to come and save her…
Lin Luoran doesn’t realize that she has exerted such a huge influence on this innocent little girl. If Lin knew this, she would think it a good thing. The path of cultivation is so long, and it will really be sad if she becomes the last female cultivator in the world.
“Sister, look!”
Li Xi’er screams, pointing at something below them.
Lin Luoran looks in that direction and sees a forest. From above, all she can see is that fruits are hanging on the trees like stars in the sky. Lin can’t tell what kind of fruit trees there are, but the entire mountain is covered by those trees.
Looking at Li’s expressions, Lin Luoran knows that this little girl is hungry. Li loves food and never tries to hide her nature, which always remind Lin Luoran of Baojia, who may be losing her mind because of the boredom of staying in the house by Mount Qingcheng. Lin Luoran laughs. She can’t steel her heart against Li Xi’er.
Besides, Goldie is wailing. It must be thirsty after all the fighting and struggling.
Lin Luoran tells Goldie to find somewhere to land. Goldie’s back is two meters wide, and its wings are over seven meters long. It is big enough to carry two people and fly, so it surely needs an open area to land.
Goldie circles around the mountain and finds an open field. It rushes down. Li Xi’er is so scared that she grabs Goldie by its feathers and Lin Luoran also has to cling to its neck, or else she may be thrown out.
