Chapter 951: Hand Over the Four Elements Divine Fire
Adele followed Elmer Duncan into the depths of the Spiritual Vein!
As instructed by her guide, Adele took out an ice blade made from rootless water from her spatial container.
She severed the connection between the Four Elements Divine Fire and the ground from its base.
The Four Elements Divine Fire looked like a flame, but when held, it emitted no heat at all.
Adele carefully placed the Four Elements Divine Fire into a box made of obsidian for safekeeping and stored it in her Space Bracelet.
“Alright! Thank you, Lord of the Duncan family.”
Adele said calmly.
“Adele, um…”
Elmer Duncan smiled awkwardly, hesitating to speak.
Hearing this, Adele responded indifferently, “Don’t worry. When I return to Penglai Fairy Island, I will send a batch of cultivation resources and treasures as promised. Additionally, I will dispatch a master from Penglai Fairy Island to protect the Duncan family. From now on, the Duncan family and Penglai Fairy Island can maintain contact.”
Upon hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Elmer Duncan’s face.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The Four Elements Divine Fire was of no use to the Duncan family. At least, they hadn’t discovered any use for it yet. Trading it for a batch of cultivation resources and gaining Penglai Fairy Island as an ally was an excellent deal.
“Fortunately, Lachlan was sensible enough not to compete with Adele! Otherwise, the Duncan family would have lost out,” Elmer Duncan thought to himself.
“Alright, I won’t stay any longer! Rest assured, Penglai Fairy Island will not default on this agreement. The items and the master will arrive within a week or at most a month,” Adele said calmly.
“Yes, yes! I’m not worried. But Adele, won’t you stay for the night? Your injuries don’t seem fully healed,” Elmer Duncan said eagerly.
“No need!” Adele shook her head and left the Spiritual Vein immediately.
Having obtained the Four Elements Divine Fire, she wanted to return to Penglai Fairy Island as soon as possible to contact her guide and the assigned artifact master to avoid any complications.
Healing her injuries would be safer back at her sect. Staying with the Duncan family served no purpose. If there were any threats, who in the Duncan family could protect her?
With this in mind, Adele decided to return to her sect overnight.
Under the night sky, she stepped on her Fire God Sword and flew through the air like an ethereal fairy, drifting away.
At that moment, Lachlan’s expression turned cold as he silently followed her.
“Leaving already? Heh…” Lachlan sneered inwardly.
…
Under the night sky, Adele flew on her sword. She chose mountainous or wilderness areas to avoid populated places and attract attention. Otherwise, news might spread on social media apps by morning.
As she flew over a hilly area, a figure suddenly appeared in mid-air ahead of her, stepping towards her through the air and finally stopping in front of her!
“Lachlan! Is that you?” Adele’s face turned cold as she asked in surprise.
She scrutinized Lachlan, puzzled. This guy was clearly only at the Hollow Void Realm; how could he stay airborne for so long? Did he have some invisible artifact continuously supporting him?
“Yes, it’s me!” Lachlan nodded expressionlessly.
“What do you want?” Adele asked coldly, as if keeping him at arm’s length.
“Yes, I do have something to discuss!” Lachlan nodded and extended his hand towards Adele. “Hand over the Four Elements Divine Fire if you don’t want to die.”
Adele was momentarily stunned by his words. Then a mocking smile appeared on her beautiful face.
“What did you say? You want me to hand over the Four Elements Divine Fire? Lachlan, are you joking?”
Adele laughed as if she had heard an absurd joke.
“Why would I joke with you? Do you think you’re that attractive?” Lachlan snorted coldly, his expression stern. In the next second, he exuded a sharp aura and said domineeringly, “You’ve now reached the Shattered Void Realm and are no longer under the Seed of the Star Path protection plan. If I attack you, the Orderwarden organization won’t do anything to me!”
“Hahaha…” Adele couldn’t help but laugh mockingly at his words. She looked at Lachlan with eyes filled with resentment and sneered, “So, you’re saying you want to attack me? If that’s the case, I couldn’t be happier!”
Grinding her teeth, her eyes glinted with resentment. “I was worried you hadn’t reached Fragmentation Void yet, so I couldn’t attack you. But if you attack me first and I kill you, the Orderwarden organization won’t say anything either! Come on, I’ve been waiting for this!”
Lachlan’s face twisted into a wicked smile. “Is that so? Then as you wish!”
With that, he charged forward through the air and threw a punch at Adele.
After a day of rest, Lachlan’s true energy had recovered by eighty percent. His internal injuries had almost healed thanks to the Dragon’s Energy Primordial Technique. His mental strength had recovered by about half. In this state, he was ready for battle.
In contrast, Adele’s injuries had only recovered by about thirty percent. Her protective Immortal Grade Golden Bell had just been shattered by Kendrick’s demon today and hadn’t regained its energy yet, making it unusable.
Given these circumstances, if Lachlan didn’t act now, when would he?
Even though his Sky Shaker divine ability was still cooling down, Lachlan was sixty percent confident he could take down Adele. Otherwise, in her peak state, she would be even more challenging to deal with. Just her golden bell shield alone might be impenetrable for him.
Having decided to act, tonight was the night!
