Chapter 651 - Towards Kunlun I
Chapter 651 - Towards Kunlun I
The guards all bowed and unanimously stated her title, "The Mistress of Sound, Yinyue."
A maiden that wearing a beautiful robe with a white hood came out of the broken carriage. The moment Adrian laid his eyes on her, he could clearly feel that this woman is not normal due to the immense energy that she contains.
"It is as if a goddess came down to the world and is currently sealed." Adrian thought as he closely observed Yinyue.
Unlike the usual nobles from the eastern continent that have black hair, her hair is more of a silvery pink that matches well with her delicate looking face and blue eyes. She has the features of a resident of the eastern continent but her eye color and hair color matches that of the people in the central continent.
"I thank the benefactor for helping us in our weakest times." Yinyue bowed but she did not open her mouth, but Adrian could clearly hear a beautiful voice like that of a song.
"Is she?" Adrian was about to ask a question when Fei intervened..
"My friend here is not able to speak so she uses gestures instead." Fei stated as she talks to her friend via sign language.
"Strange. I heard a voice like that of a song though." Adrian muttered which caught the attention of Yinyue.
"You did not mishear benefactor. This is the second time that someone is able to hear my voice apart from my fiancé. You must be very extraordinary that you are able to hear me with ease. Even my fiancé that could hear me has no ability to hear everything that I say using this method." Yinyue replied via her special way of communicating.
"Anyways, it would be very rude for us to not reward you. Tell us anything you need, and we might be able to get it for you." Fei stated as she noticed that Adrian is staring at her friend with curiosity.
"Is that so? Then can you get me a large lightning magic stone?" Adrian stated but the guards and even Fei made difficult expressions.
"That would be difficult even for us. A large lightning magic stone is already considered one of the rarest treasures of the eastern continent. Not to mention, the royal family of the north part of the eastern continent has monopoly of such products." Fei stated as she explained the details why they cannot fetch the stone for Adrian.
"If that is the case then I should be on my way." Adrian stated as he pat Kanlaon to signal it to fly away.
"Wait!" The special voice of Yinyue stated which made Adrian tell Kanlaon to wait.
"Take our emblems instead. With these, you will have access to the other parts of the eastern continent despite being a demon. The southern part of the eastern continent must welcome you because you are friends with the southern holy beast but that will not be the case for the other parts of the eastern continent." Fei stated as threw something to Adrian.
Yinyue also brought out her emblem and urged Fei to give it to Adrian. Fei got shocked that her friend wanted to give their benefactor his emblem because her emblem is special unlike hers. Yinyue is the Mistress of Sound which is a title only given to the one who cultivated the Sonorous Martial Arts.
She is basically on the level of the so-called Immortals in terms of influence in the eastern continent. People pay respect to her when they see her as she is able to do something that is on the same level as godlike beings.
Adrian took the two emblems and observed their engravings. The emblem that Fei gave has the engraving of a bell, but he could see a black butterfly with Adrian's special eyesight. The emblem that Yinyue gave has the engraving of a golden note.
"Thank you for the gift." Adrian stated.
"If it is not too much to ask but could the benefactor tell us his name and his destination?" Fei asked as she knew that they will be an easy target if they do not ask for help.
"I am called Equinox. The place that I am headed towards is Kunlun as I am going to meet my friend there. If you could have provided me with the large lightning magic stone, then I might not have to." Adrian answered.
"Benefactor Equinox, if it is not much trouble…can we follow behind you on your way to Kunlun as we also have the same destination. We are heading to Kunlun as well since Yinyue has some business there." Fei stated with eyes that are begging. Even Yinyue looked like she is pleading for Adrian to accept the proposal.
"You guys will not be attacked anymore as your special guards have already arrived in the area." Adrian stated which made those who are guarding Yinyue and Fei in secret shudder as they are masters in stealth.
Adrian only noticed them because of Sirius who could sense those in the shadows. Sirius reported to Adrian that ten individuals arrived, but they did not have any hostility towards them which meant they are secret guards employed by Yinyue or Fei's family.
When Adrian said that to Fei and Yinyue, ten shadows came out of hiding and kneeled before Yinyue. They look like martial artists, but their clothes are more for stealth purposes. Even Adrian feels like they are more of an assassin than actual guards.
"Mistress Yinyue, our master has sent us to ensure your safety after you have signaled him of danger." One of the ten guards stated but Yinyue showed a shocked expression when he heard the guard's voice.
"Since all of you seem to be accustomed already, I should get going then." Adrian stated but Fei still wanted Adrian to travel with them.
"If it is alright with the Benefactor, can we tail you from behind?" Fei asked as she wanted another assurance since she does not know who will attack them next.
