Staring at the man standing in front of himself, Leylin looked at him with a calm smile on his face.
No doubt, Leylin was also alerted. Just by looking at him, Leylin could clearly sense a large energy emanating from this yellow-faced man in front of him.
It didn’t take him long to understand that this yellow-faced man was definitely a warrior way above his level. The yellow-faced man was just looking at him, without intentionally releasing any energy to pressure him at all, but Leylin could already feel his strength.
Leylin kept his face still without breaking his smile as he slowly took a step back, showing that he didn’t come with any malicious thoughts. Then he said, “The music that the beautiful miss played was so enchanting. I just can’t get enough. I only wanted to hear more of her music, that’s all.”
To Leylin, this girl has an extremely high magical music skills similar to the elemental bards from the Magus World. Her beautiful music could apparently help others control the desire within their mind.
This is similar to the powers of bards who used the musical nodes energized by magical powers to empower the elements around them to alter people moods around them, it’s dabbles into various different branches created through ancient studies. The most dreaded of the bards are those who use magical powers to attack their victim spiritually, As the emperor of the whole surface of the Magus World, Leylin has studied almost all paths of Magus all originating from since, ancient times.
“I can tell that you don’t have any bad intentions. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let you live until now.” The yellow-faced man laughed, and said in a relaxed mood yet squinted eyes, “But, this is not the place for you to be. I suggest you get the hell away from us. Otherwise, you will be in a lot of trouble.”
“Is that so?” Leylin smiled narrowing his eyes as well staring into the yellow-faced man eyes, his weak and small body whirled with a small yet savage energy threatening to destroy everyone.
“As you wish.” Leylin suddenly calmed his pressure and lifted both hands to show cooperation. He didn’t stay any longer. However, he took a glance at that beautiful figure in distance before turning around and leaving.
…
“Uncle Levi, I sensed a strong evil spirit in that man. Back then, although he hid it extremely well, his whole body was filled with a killing desire and he almost attacked but, I guess someone as straight forward as him, shouldn’t be someone from the Dark World.” Mable Halifax said with mild discomfort when she recalled Leylin’s piercing look at her.
That man… it seemed as if he hides his desire extremely well.
Although there were other men who glanced at her with many emotions mostly lustful intention, they would do so in secret or cover up their desires when they laid eyes on her. However, that guy… he didn’t have any fluctuations in heart or mind looking at her as if she was a mere block of flesh and blood.
“He can’t be from the Dark World. The assassins sent by the Dark World should at least be of the Nascent Realm, but that guy is still an Elementary Realm Warrior.” Levi laughed and said, “But interesting, though, that guy is not even a Nascent Realm Warrior yet, but dares to stare at our beautiful lady who has already achieved the Third Sky of Human Realm. This guy has some balls. Haha!”
“Ah, I am still not sure when I can recover. Currently, I am powerless.” Mable Halifax slightly sighed with her heart filled with sorrow, “Uncle Levi, if the assassins did come and you couldn’t defeat them, please just leave me behind. I… can rely on me.”
“What is this nonsense?!” Hearing this, Levi apparently was not very happy. He spoke in a firm voice, “We are not far away from the Merchant Union right now. If we can survive the next few weeks, we can definitely get out of this Dark Forest. Once we reach the Merchant Union, the Dark World can’t do anything to hurt us.”
“Gu! Gu!”
With a strange whistle from the distance. Before long, two men and a woman who dressed like mercenaries came out of the forest with grim expressions on their faces. The leader came up to Levi and said, “Sorry Uncle Levi, we couldn’t keep up with the trackers from the ‘Dark World’.”
Levi nodded, and said with a frown, “We must set out right now and choose a new location to rest. Otherwise, the assassins from the Dark World will soon find and surround us.”
The five of them did not stay for long. They quickly packed their stuff and left in a hurry.
…
Right after they left, the Leylin slowly appeared again. His face was calm and tranquil yet his aura was rapidly fluctuating, this was the reason he stayed away from them.
The Profound Qi that he got from Master Kurt was swirling inside him. Because Master Kurt had the power of a Nascent Realm Warrior, his Profound Qi was mixed with too much energy. While his devour system purified and absorbed, a huge influx of energy was released in meridians processing Master Kurt’s Profound Qi, all the annoying negative emotions that may ignite his crazy desire for blood has been cured inside his body.
His meridians were still working on digesting Master Kurt’s Profound Qi. Until this process was completed, there was a pretty good chance that Leylin would fall into a vulnerable state again.
Before his body finished the digestion of Master Kurt’s Profound Qi, the group attention and the order chasing them would be very dangerous.
Feeling that another breakthrough urge was slowly creeping up on him, Leylin stayed his hands. After some hesitation, he started walking towards the direction again.
Leylin decided to maintain a safe distance as be walked and slowly followed their trail.
…
“Uncle Levi, do you need us to deal with that kid who met mistress, he was probably a scout of Dark World!” The leader of the three mercenaries said. His expression suddenly darkened, as he said in hatred.
That mercenary had a young and handsome face. He looked like 25-26 years old, and was already 1.85 meters tall, with a strong and slim figure. He was a Nascent realm Warrior who had already reached the Third Sky. His eyes were shining with energy and were always on alert. Just from a simple glance, one would knew that he is an excellent warrior.
“No, he’s not one of them.” Levi shook his head, and said with a frown, “Let’s hurry. We need to go fast or we maybe caught.”
Rayon was unhappy about this, and said with a cold voice, “It’s may be the case but it’s better to be safe, he was after Miss Mable? How dare he! we should teach him a lesson?” While he was talking, he gave a caring look at the delicate girl named Mable, who was leaning on Levi.
“No, don’t make any unnecessary trouble.” Levi shook his head again, and asked the girl in a soft voice, “Mable, are you ok with this? Shall we speed up a little bit?”
Mable Halifax was looking very pale and was perspiring slightly on her forehead. She smiled politely, “Yes, we should go faster. It’s better if we leave that man behind as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will also be killed by those assassins sent by the Dark World.”
Levi couldn’t help but sigh, feeling pity for this kind-hearted girl. He nodded to her and said, “Mable, don’t use your Profound Qi any more. You can depend on me.”
After saying that, Levi held the shoulders of Mable as if she were a delicate flower, and ran between the trees in the forest effortlessly. When he was about to land on the ground, he controlled his mighty body to just slightly touch the ground before jumping up again. There was no sound of footsteps left behind by him. Obviously, he was a first-class master at manoeuvring his Profound Qi.
…
On the other side, Leylin tightly clenched his teeth, as his breath began to get heavier.
Leylin controlled the ever brimming force growing inside him, as he moved part of his Profound Qi to his legs, and tried his best to keep up with the five people ahead of him, all the while focusing on himself.
“The bottleneck into Nascent Realm is on the verge of being destroyed, I should breakthrough soon before following them, since it would grant me the chance of gaining more devour energy.”
Leylin was focused, the only goal in his mind was to keep up with those people. His feet moved swiftly without any extra motion.
…
“Uncle Levi, although I cannot sense it properly but I think that guy is chasing us, are you sure that guy is just an Elementary Realm Warrior?” In the midst of their rapid movement, Rayon suddenly asked with surprise.
Levi was also wondering. Even he cannot pinpoint the location of the person following them but he could feel a someone behind his back. It could only be that guy!
According to his knowledge, a warrior of the Elementary Realm shouldn’t be able to keep up with their speed. However, although they had successfully distanced themselves from the man pursuing them, they never managed to ditch him. This made Levi a little uncertain and more guarded, making him wonder whether or not he could have underestimated this warrior the previous time they met.
“Uncle Levi, I can keep up. You can speed up a little more.” Mable said with a layer of sweat on her face while holding in her pain.
“No, we can’t go any faster!” Levi stubbornly refused. He said in a low voice with a frown, “Don’t pay too much attention to the kid. He is seeking his own demise. If he dies, it is not our fault.”
“Is this guy horny for miss?” The hot female mercenary named Demi couldn’t help but snort disdainful, and said with a scornful look in her eyes.
“He is just a stupid kid.” Levi’s face turn cold, and said quickly, “Stay away from him! Although, It’s not very difficult to kill him, but if we wasted our time and let the Dark World’s emissaries catch up to us, we’d be in a lot of trouble.”
