Omega Summoner

Chapter 652: Towards Kunlun II

”If you want to tail me then that is fine. Although, I will not promise to stop for you guys if you lag behind.” Adrian stated as he pat Kanlaon on the head and signaled him to head to Kunlun.

”Thank you very much.” Fei stated.

The warriors that guarded Yinyue has been refreshed which meant that they can proceed running. Yinyue, on the other hand, is a delicate flower and needed to be carried. She was carried by the guard that spoke to her and she blushed from the interaction.

Fei also did not bother running as she summoned a black spider and rode it. Adrian told Kanlaon to fly normally and not in his so-called booster mode as he would be sure that Yinyueʼs group will never be able to keep up with that flying speed.

”Are you fine, my love?” The guard asked Yinyue and the latter blushed.

”Lord Li, why did you fetch me yourself?” Yinyue answered using her special way of communicating.

”When the charm that I gave you broke, I immediately followed the trail that it has provided me with haste. I just did not expect that the distance would be this far from Kunlun which is why I was a bit late.” Li replied as worry is still painted on his face.

”We are lucky enough that we encountered Benefactor Equinox or else I might have been finished by now.” Yinyue replied.

”Do not say something so heartbreaking.” Li stated as he expressed his sadness.

”These two lovebirds…I can hear your conversation. Their actions remind me of how my parents concern flirt.” Adrian muttered as he laid back on Kanlaonʼs head.

”How did you guys get spotted when you were travelling incognito? I even gave you a charm that we received from a great charm master.” Li asked.

”We were travelling safely for about three days when suddenly the charm lost effect when we reached the forest. Bandits also suddenly appeared and attacked us without us even noticing. My guards fought bravely but some still fell. I feel saddened that I will deliver the sad news to their families.” Yinyue replied with a sad smile as half of her guards died in the skirmish.

”They have done a great service and their families will be taken care of as long as I am alive. Without their noble sacrifice, my beloved will no longer be able to hold me like this.” Li stated as he slightly tightened his embrace on Yinyue which made the latter go beet red.

After their short conversation, Li caught up to Fei and asked about the demon that saved them. Li wanted Yinyue to rest as he wanted her to calm herself down. Li asked Fei on her opinion on the demon that they are currently following.

”What do you think of him?” Li asked Fei.

”I am very thankful to Benefactor Equinox as he saved us from the bandits. I have noticed that he did not help us too much but moderated the enemies that came to us. I would not have been able to protect Yinyue from bandits that wanted to kill her.” Fei answered with great honesty and even Li could feel the sincerity in her reply.

”Why did you think he helped you? I know demons protect the realm from threats of the Abnormals but they do not help mortals in their struggles. They tend to let fate decide on how the mortals will live or die.

The only thing important to them is that the realm will still be standing even if only 10% of the mortal population is alive.” Li stated as he knew about the habits of demons from his family records.

”He could see my butterfly mark on my arm which means he is somewhat related to my clan. The only thing that I do not know is how is he related to my clan. The only thing that I know is that it was a demon that saved our clan from extinction back then.” Fei stated which made her suddenly look at Adrian.

All the descriptions about the demon that helped her clan in ancient times match Adrianʼs look. Fei wanted to speak but decided not to as she is having a difficult time believing the thing that she just discovered.

”What is wrong? Something is bugging your mind.” Li asked Fei and Yinyue also showed concern.

”Demons can manipulate time, correct? Is it possible for them to go back to the past and rewrite history?” Fei asked but Li shook his head.

”From what my grandfather told me, demons are able to manipulate time, space and force but they are also restricted. My grandfather told me about a demon that could manipulate time like water but the best he could rewind time would be an hour.

Also, they are not allowed to mess with reality. They are the ones that protect this world and if they could really do that then they should have erased every threat in the world by now. Yet here we are in the eastern continent where chaos is the normal.” Li stated with depressed eyes.

”You are right. Maybe Benefactor Equinox is a descendant of that demon which is why they mostly look the same.” Fei stated as she erased the thought on her mind.

”You do not need to worry about Benefactor Equinox, my beloved. He has a pure heart and clear heart if he did not then he would have fainted when I used my ability. The only thing that we need to worry about is the person that came after my head.” Yinyue stated as she suddenly looked serious.

”You are correct. The charm should not have lost effect that early unless another charm master is nearby that disabled it. Did you feel the presence of someone powerful when the charm effects vanished?” Li asked but Yinyue shook her head as she was occupied with activating the hiding charm once again when it lost effect.
