Chapter 1364 – Quite A Lot Of People
However, before Roan could leave, the area around them began to tremble once again. Immediately, they looked at Sally, thinking that perhaps another ancient beast had appeared. After all, it wasn’t the first time they had seen something like that. However, Sally continued to have her eyes closed. It was as if she didn’t even know what was happening.
Not long after, several rays of white light appeared in the sky, all striking the position where the Fallen Light Star Sphere was a moment ago. It’s just that it wasn’t there anymore. Naturally, it was a very eye-catching event that ended up catching the attention of many cultivators, so they all rushed in the direction of the lights.
Suddenly, a voice echoed through the entire third level. “Who took away the Light Star Sphere?!” Soon after, the light hitting the position where the sphere was located a moment ago began to take on the lifelike form of a small boy. The boy then looked at Rean’s group as rage filled his mind. “How did you manage to take the Light Star Sphere away? No one was supposed to be able to move it at all.”
Rean and Roan didn’t know anything about that, though. They simply used the Soul Gem System to pull the thing into the Dimensional Realm. Was there supposed to be something holding the sphere in place?
[Ahem… well, uh… there was a very strong resistance around the sphere. It’s just that it couldn’t resist the Soul Gem System’s power, so it was pulled away.] Sister Orb told them.
Rean and Roan’s mouths twitched in response. Couldn’t she have told them that ahead of time? ‘You’re as useless as always!’
The two didn’t even have a chance to explain as the little boy began to gather energy to attack. The space around the entire park was quickly restricted, making it extremely difficult for anyone to enter or leave. The two also saw the red color of killing intent filling the entire air around them. However, before the boy could launch its devastating attack, Sally finally opened her eyes.
*Roarrr! Rorrrrr, Rorrrarrr…*
Just like what she did with the second small white dragon, she seemed to be communicating with the small boy in their own language. “What did you say?” The energy gathering around the boy then disappeared without a trace as he looked at Rean and asked, “Are you sure?”
*Rrawrrrr, roar, rorrrr, rorrarrrr….*
“So, the second guardian has already confirmed it, huh?” The boy calmed down before saying, “Rean, is it? I’ll give the second guardian some face. I don’t know how you did it, and I won’t pursue the matter. All you need to do is place the Light Star Sphere back in its place. Do that, and I won’t kill all of you.”
Sally also looked at Rean and nodded in response. It was obvious that this boy was much stronger than Saly, so that was the best she could do for them. She had to protect the twins’ group, but she couldn’t fight against someone like the little boy.
Rean’s group sighed in relief, though. They didn’t know what happened, but they definitely wouldn’t go against the boy’s words. The only doubt was whether the Soul Gem System would even open. After all, this light boy was definitely as dangerous as he could possibly be. ‘Well, at least the red color of killing intent has disappeared.’
[It’s fine. You can send the sphere out.]
Sure enough, the sphere immediately appeared again. Following that, several lines of Divine Energy appeared from all throughout the vicinity, rushing into the Light Star Sphere. It was obvious that the sphere had some extremely important reason to be there in that spot as the entire area seemed to welcome it.
The little boy still had a dark expression on his face, but he nodded nonetheless. “Sigh… tens of thousands of years of slumber, just for some brats to force me to wake up. How much will it slow down my recovery?”
The boy then looked back at Rean’s group and told them, “Now, get out of my sight. You better not touch this or any of the other Light Star Spheres in the area. I absolutely won’t give you another chance in life.” After that, the light that kept the little boy’s form disappeared, and so did the boy. It’s just that Hurio felt like the boy looked at him at the last moment with a hint of interest. ‘What was that?’ He didn’t tell anyone about it, though.
Rean bitterly smiled and looked at Hurio, telling him, “It seems like our deal was useless in the end.”
Hurio nodded with a dejected expression. “Indeed. Here, take the Fallen Light Star Fragments you gave me back.” Because of the Soul Binding Contract, everything had to be shared. Since the previous one was now lost, Hurio had much more than Rean, so he had to follow the contract.
Rean didn’t reject it, obviously. He also needed them for his breakthrough. “Ahem… should we talk about what just happened, or do you think it’s better to ignore it?”
“Ignore it,” Roan said immediately. “Tens of thousands of years of slumber. That’s what he told us. If that’s true, then he has been here longer than the top powers of Lanqueas Continent. Perhaps the entire Lost Star Realm solely exists for that ‘recovery’ he mentioned. Do you really want to meddle with someone like that?”
Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Lilia shook their heads vigorously after that. That little boy gave them a feeling of danger several times greater than the small white dragon in the second level.
Roan then turned around, preparing to leave. Even though they lost the sphere, he still intended to go out and explore the third level, trying to find the Freezing Star Liquid. However, he quickly noticed that they had gotten themselves some company. “Well, that boy’s show of power caught a lot of attention, it seems.”
Sure enough, as soon as the little boy left, the spatial power preventing anyone from entering or leaving around the park soon disappeared. That meant everyone who came after that show of lights was finally able to enter it. Jix Organization, Lanqueas Sect, Didatido Sect, Croste Clan, Krui Clan, Dragon Tail Brotherhood, etc. There were also cultivators who weren’t part of the top ten that were here to look for treasures. “That’s quite a lot of people….” Rean couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
