Paradise of Demonic Gods - Chapter 567

Chapter 567

Seeing Audrey's reaction, Fang Xingjian did not say much . He knew that facts would speak louder than words .

"We'll leave it to tonight to see if I'll be able to fend off the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon . You just need to prepare the Star of Brilliance . "

Audrey smiled, shaking her head . "You want the Star of Brilliance this much? If that's the case, I'll give it to you . Anyway, I won't have anymore use for it . If you need it, then you can have it . " After saying that, she stood up and headed for her bedroom .

Fang Xingjian looked at Audrey in astonishment . It was as if he was not expecting her to be cool with it .

On the way, Fang Xingjian continued to move between the spatial gaps as he followed Audrey through many pavilions and buildings . They then arrived at her cloakroom .

The entire cloakroom covered an area of over 100 square meters . There were all sorts of clothes, jewelleries, shoes, and many other things . It showed Pop Clan's wealth .

Audrey walked up to her jewellery cabinet, pulled out a drawer, and took out a gemstone necklace from a corner . She said to the air, "Strange guy, are you still there?"

Fang Xingjian appeared with a flash from the spatial gaps . He looked at the Star of Brilliance which Audrey was holding in her had . One of the red gemstones used for the necklace was suspected to be an Origin Essence Stone .

Audrey handed the Star of Brilliance to Fang Xingjian, saying, "Take it . This is the thing that you want, right? Take it and leave . The Eight Directional Crimson Dragon isn't that easy to deal with . Don't be rash and end up losing your life . "

Fang Xingjian was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected to be able to get his hands on the Star of Brilliance so easily . He looked at Audrey's beautiful face, took the Star of Brilliance, and studied it .

Scanning it with waves of Heaven's Perception, Fang Xingjian attempted to channel in his deathly sword intent . At the beginning, there was nothing . However, as more and more of his deathly sword intent was channeled in, Fang Xingjian soon realized something with his sharp senses . There seemed to be almost no depletion to the deathly sword intent that had been channeled into the Origin Essence Stone .

The Origin Essence Stone was even able to absorb some kind of unknown energy to replenish the sword intent's depletion .

'Not only can consciousness be stored in it for a very long time, but the consciousness would even continue to be nurtured .

'However, a person must be of an extremely high level of cultivation with extremely sharp senses to be able to detect such fine differences . '

Fang Xingjian looked at the Origin Essence Stone in his hand and then lifted his head to look at Audrey . His emotions were a little complicated as he had not expected that Audrey would hand him the stone so easily .

Although she was not aware that this was a piece of priceless Origin Essence Stone, just the necklace alone was worth over 10,000 gold .

After seeing Fang Xingjian's strange expression, Audrey smiled teasingly and said, "What? Could it be that you still want other stuff? That won't do . My father will notice it . When that happens, he'll definitely give me a scolding . "

"A small favor must be returned many folds over," Fang Xingjian said calmly . "Don't worry . I'm a person who distinguishes between favors and feuds, paying back in kind . Since you've given the Star of Brilliance to me, I won't let you do so for nothing . I'll take on the matter concerning the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon . "

Audrey looked at Fang Xingjian, finding it both funny and angry . "Why don't you listen to what people say . . . "

She still wanted to say more but the strange man disappeared completely from her sight .

Letting out a bitter laugh, Audrey paid it no heed . To her, it seemed as if the other party had just been putting up a front and saying nice words .

As the top beauty in the Northern Ice Region, she had encountered too many men like this .

"I was still thinking if you could bring me with you and escape this place . To think that you left just like that . "

Fang Xingjian left the place and once again appeared next to Lilia . She asked, "Master, how was it?"

Fang Xingjian nodded, "I've gotten it . " Fang Xingjian opened his hand and the Star of Brilliance lay on his palm .

Lilia said excitedly, "Was it so simple? Master, you're truly very amazing . Are we heading back now?" Toward the latter part of her words, she appeared slightly down . It was as if she had not expected that they would be returning so soon, considering it had not been long since the two of them left for this trip .

Fang Xingjian shook his head . "There's no hurry . We'll stay for the night . Tomorrow, I'll head back to cultivate the tenth level of the mystical prints . "

During the next few hours, Fang Xingjian brought Lilia with him, found a vacant house, and then meditated and cultivated . When night fell, Fang Xingjian then performed Infiltrating Void while bringing along Lilia with him .

Fang Xingjian immediately felt layers of difficulty in bringing someone with him as he performed Infiltrating Void . He secretly calculated that even with his cultivation, he would only be able to bring three to four people with him at most . Otherwise, he would not be able to perform Infiltrating Void .

The two of them continued to pass through layers of spatial gaps . In the blink of an eye, they arrived in an empty courtyard in the Pop Clan's manor . Then, with a flash, they appeared in the physical world once again .

Right now, in the Pop residence, the place was filled with light all over, and there were lively sounds in the distant . There were constantly sounds of wine cups meeting and the laughter of men and women alike . It was clear that some kind of drinking party was going on .

"Come, let's go over and take a look . "

Fang Xingjian's gaze flickered slightly, and he headed for the lawn where the gathering was being held .

The two of them walked over to the lawn and saw that there were many guests . Most of them were wearing gowns and suits . The men were dressed very smartly while the ladies wore expensive jewelleries . It was apparent that they were all very important and influential characters of the Northern Ice Region .

Many attendants walked on the grass, carrying cocktails and small desserts .

Men stood in small groups, occasionally bursting out in laughter .

Neither Fang Xingjian nor Lilia were dressed up for the event . They were wearing ordinary training clothes and appeared to be unable to fit in with the rest of the people present .

Lilia instinctively detested gatherings like this . She was the daughter of Kirst's City Lord, but back when she was in Kirst City, she had never attended such drinking parties . She felt that they were boring and a waste of time .

So, Lilia could not help but ask Fang Xingjian, "Master, how long are we going to stay here?"

Fang Xingjian walked to a corner with her, closed his eyes, and started to quietly cultivate his ether organs . Hearing Lilia's question, he replied, "We're waiting for the people from the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon to come . "

Just as Lilia was feeling a little impatient, a male's voice of surprise rang out, "Lilia, why are you here?"

Lilia lifted her head and looked over . She frowned . "Kite?"

The young man was dressed in a smart suit and his hair combed back . The treasured sword hanging by his waist was clearly very valuable, and he appeared to be filled with the aura of a noble .

This guy was Kite, Lilia's classmate back in the Great Western City's Knight Academy . He had once pursued Lilia .

"Lilia, where have you been all this while?" Kite looked at Lilia, pleasantly surprised . He then looked warily at Fang Xingjian . However, Fang Xingjian had concealed his aura and changed his appearance . Therefore, it was impossible for Kite to recognize him .

Looking at Kite, Lilia frowned and said, "Why have you become like this? You look so weak and girly . Didn't you work hard in cultivating your martial arts?"

Kite was slightly taken aback, appearing slightly awkward . Standing beside him was an effeminate man who seemed to be his friend . This effeminate man found what Lilia had said to be funny . "Young miss, although you look quite pretty, you're quite fierce when you talk . "
