Chapter 355 - 355. Chaos (2)
But one thing is certain, that person knows the ins and outs of this City.
Standing still for a few minutes in her position, Fu Xie Lan suddenly turned in the direction that Elder Huang Bao was.
"Master, are all the gates in this City heavily guarded?"
"Of course, if not, then what do you think they gave the permit jade for?"
"That's because those who don't have the item will be considered as intruders, and will end up being sentenced to death by the City Master's people," added Elder Huang Bao.
"Yes, what Master said may be true, but it only applies to those wishing to leave this City," said Fu Xie Lan. And that made Elder Huang Bao pause for a moment, trying to digest the girl's words.
"Don't tell me that they sent those people to destroy this place on purpose?" guess the old man.
"Master once said that in the past humans coexisted with all races here, right?" asked Fu Xie Lan turning to the old man next to her, lowering her gaze slightly due to Elder Huang Bao's short stature.
"Indeed, what does all this have to do with it?"
"That means that there is also a gate leading to the human race?" asked Fu Xie Lan that very second.
"That's true, but it was closed a long time ago and never opened again, kid."
"Besides the forbidden forest, there is a portal that can go directly to human territory. It's just that since the incident seven hundred years ago, it has become a restricted area and no one is allowed to approach it let alone set foot in it," explained Elder Huang Bao.
"Does the gatekeeper stay there, Master?"
"No, what do they do? Guarding the gate that no one else would pass through was futile. The place is only locked and protected by magic."
"What's with that, kid?"
Just as Elder Huang Bao finished his question, a new thought appeared in his mind.
"Could it be that they were all able to enter this City because they passed through that forbidden area?" guessed Elder Huang Bao feeling enlightened.
"I'm not saying that it's certain, Master. Because there isn't enough evidence. It's just my guess," said Fu Xie Lan.
"We need to make sure by visiting the place," she added.
"B-but, the chaos is still..."
"I'm not saying it now, Master."
"Maybe after the four of them put an end to this mess?" she added again.
"All right, kid."
The two figures fell silent again, the explosions originating from the mana collision that occurred below continued to sound.
Especially when hee guess is correct that the black witch is after her, then it's impossible for her to just stay silent right? even though she didn't know what their goal was, Fu Xie Lan had to think about the worst that could happen.
'Hmm.. just wasting my time,' she thought.
If only this mess hadn't happened, she might already be in Vampire territory and starting her quest.
Fu Xie Lan looked around again.
Her current focus wasn't on the battle down there, but rather around the places where the buildings were still intact, not far and not too close to the center of the chaos, as if she was looking for something.
Just when Fu Xie Lan was about to turn her gaze to another direction, her violet eyes suddenly found a black-robed person with very strange movements.
And the sight managed to create a faint frown on the girl's forehead, thinking about what the figure was doing that entered her eyes.
Suddenly she realized something.
Don't ask what the figure was doing, just looking at the robe he was wearing answered the question.
At the same time, suddenly their eyes met. Causing the black-robed figure who was not far from Fu Xie Lan to immediately retreat and go somewhere.
Immediately the girl jumped down making Elder Huang Bao next to her startled and panicked.
"XIE LAN...." shouted the old man.
A scream that could even reach the ears of a few people down there.
Those who saw the girl's actions assumed that she was trying to kill herself.
Immediately Huang Bao mounted his wand and wanted to catch up with Fu Xie Lan.
However what happened next was, Fu Xie Lan's blue robes just slipped from her body, and at the same time, a pair of majestic wings spread across her back.
Made everyone stunned and amazed, including Elder Huang Bao whose body suddenly fell from the top of his stick that was floating in the air, hitting the roof of the building without him noticing.
Fu Xie Lan, the girl headed to the place where the black-robed figure was before.
While the four friends of Fu Xie Lan who were with her earlier were also frozen on the spot, only a few seconds later they came back to their senses.
Except for Xue Ning, who knows how many times the girl had rubbed her eyes just to confirm everything she saw. Until a large ball of black smoke shot towards her, but the girl still didn't budge from her position.
SSYYUUTTT...
Suddenly from the side, someone hugged her and carried her flying at high speed, causing Xue Ning's body to jolt.
"Keep your focus, idiot!" A deep voice rang out from a man. Looking at the origin of the voice, it was Wan Lie's voice.
His pair of jet-black wings spread out and then flapped softly, flying higher than before. Dodge the smoke ball resembling a fireball that was being fired at the two of them.
Xue Ning felt that her life was out of place. And Wan Lie continued to move through the air dodging attacks, occasionally dispelling and returning the balls of black smoke that were shot at him.
"Xie-Xie Lan can fly," stuttered Xue Ning, both in disbelief and delight at the sight of the white-dressed girl swerving in the air.
"But that doesn't mean you have to stand still when those balls of smoke are heading your way, idiot!"
"Stop calling me an idiot!"
"Just let me go!!" Xue Ning shouted so loudly as if she had just realized what was happening around her.
Wan Lie just snorted at the girl's words. It then flapped its wings again, heading to where Elder Huang Bao was.
Flew higher to the roof of the building, and then released Xue Ning's body from the air.
Bruck...
The girl hit the roof, making her wince in pain.
"You are an idiot!" Xue Ning cursed.
"You asked for it," Wan Lie replied in such a cold voice and then started flapping his wings again.. Flying swooping back into the center of the chaos, joining Ju Xian and Xue Ying who were already staring at him in horror.C
