Chapter 1791 The Race Against Time

Aria figured that going to save people in a nightgown wasn't exactly practical, especially since she was still running a fever. She checked her own pulse; she was having a low-grade fever. She headed to the herb house to treat herself first. Landon also knew how to take care of people. He held an umbrella in one hand and a white fur cloak in the other—they were all for Aria. Being in the manifestation, Aria really found all sorts of things inconvenient as a modern person. At least one thing was convenient—bladegliding. Getting down the mountain took just minutes, so she did not have to worry about transportation. She just did not understand some of the spiritual medicines yet. But luckily, she'd studied medicine herself, so she could figure out the related herbs. The situation was worse than she'd imagined. When Aria landed following the young deer, she immediately noticed a spirit beast that had been completely drained nearby. It was an antelope with pure white fur. It was s

Chapter 1792 He Did Not Want To

In the heavy rain, Aria took another couple of steps. Rain drummed against the paper umbrella, the steady pattering unusually loud in the quiet forest. She was lost in thought while Landon kept holding the paper umbrella, shielding both of them as they slowly moved forward. He was being really considerate. Even so, Aria found it hard to ignore his presence. The mountain forest was pitch black all around, with rain and mist rising up. They couldn't tell if it was wind or thunder, but either way, it was scary to listen to. And there was a faint smell of blood in the air. But Landon seemed totally unaffected by any of it. His fingers remained clean and spotless, and that noble air of his was not diminished one bit. This made Aria look up, wanting to get a better look at him. After all, in this entire manifestation, he was the only one who hadn't changed his name. That really bothered her. Noticing her stare, Landon shifted the umbrella more toward her and tilted his head slightl

Chapter 1793 Enduring It

Aria couldn't understand what had happened. She had just followed the white tiger cub for a short distance, but when she turned back around, Landon had completely changed. He started talking much less, and she had no idea what was wrong. Even his smiles seemed careless and impossible to read. Though he hadn't been particularly lively to begin with, there was still a clear difference from how he'd been explaining everything to her just moments ago. Was it because the rain stopped? Did that make him less considerate? While Aria was thinking about this, the cub's back remained tense. It was because behind them, there was a cold edge to Landon's presence even though he seemed to be walking casually. It wondered when Aria had gotten another boy toy. The cub was injured and couldn't walk very fast, and Aria was thoughtful about that too. After they hadn't gone very far, she picked up the cub. Even though it was small, it was still heavy—definitely not something she could compare to a

Chapter 1794 His Origins

Landon wondered if Aria thought she might die because she had entered a manifestation and found it difficult to break. After he considered this possibility, his usually calm eyes darkened. Looking at him in the night, he was nothing like the innocent young man Aria had seen in Hollowground. With his black hair, white robes, and a fur-lined coat, he should have looked like an ascendant, but his face stood out too starkly in the darkness. The indiscernible inscriptions faintly wrapped around his neck added an air of forbidden danger. He stared straight at Aria, then smiled. Entering a manifestation didn't necessarily mean death. If she was willing to stay for him, he'd make sure she wouldn't be harmed in the slightest. Whatever manifestation this was, he would be the one in control. Landon admitted he wasn't acting like his usual self. But he'd been born from the Forging Flames to set the Six Arcane Realms right. Now he was being told all of this was just a manifestation and th

Chapter 1795 Competing for Favor

Aria didn't care who was happy or not about her actions. If she were going to save Mount Hollowlight, she would clash with all the major sects anyway. It was just a matter of being reactive or proactive about it. Besides, every spiritual beast on the mountain had bonded with her now. There was no way to hide something like that. When the thunder stopped, it meant the fortune was shifting. And all the major virtuous factions would definitely notice. Tonight was her time to prepare. Aria had no intention of resting. She had the spider lead some of the fiercer spiritual beasts and get moving right away. If they waited too long, it would just give the sects time to react. The spider knew the most about the villagers on Mount Hollowlight. This village was generally decent in most ways. But there was one problem—they held some pretty backward views about certain social matters. Some people were valued more than others based on their looks, and those who didn't meet the societal bea

Chapter 1796 Some People Deserve Their Fate

There was a legend in the arcane world that collecting 81 different spiritual cores would greatly increase the chances of an arcane seeker reaching the Supreme Realm. Because of this, every sect monitored spiritual beasts very strictly. Some spiritual cores could also strengthen the body and boost spiritual energy. The higher the tier of demons, the more their cores would help arcane seekers. What Aria was doing clearly challenged some long-established rules. After all, people always said demons and spirits were evil by nature. When the villagers below Mount Hollowlight got scared, their first instinct was indeed to seek help from the sects. Every year, the sects would come down the mountain to recruit apprentices, but one thing was becoming increasingly obvious. A few hundred years ago, when they took apprentices in, they actually wanted to train them properly. But now, it was about expanding the sect and having fewer people to serve them. After all, the virtuous factions we

Chapter 1797 A Confrontation of Sects

Listening to the two women talk, Aria felt annoyed for no good reason. Not just annoyed—knowing what it all really meant made her feel unsettled too. The most dangerous thing for arcane seekers was letting something mess with their core beliefs. But ever since she had decided to enter the Sacrificial Offering Manifestation, Aria had been doing things that were against her principles. Some beliefs had been passed down from ancient times to the present. Compared to the old days, modern times seemed a little better. But when she really thought about it, some things remained the same way. For example, she had always heard that women had to have careers or they would get left behind by society. Also, women should get married no matter what, so they would have someone to look after them when they were old. Why was it always about what women should do? Didn't men need to support families or worry about getting left behind by society? The people who loved to gossip were still the sam

Chapter 1798 Jealousy

As Aria's mentor, Thayne naturally knew her abilities. Without having to guess much, Thayne knew why Nedo and Veric were actually here—they came for Aria. Everyone who knew Thayne understood he was the most protective mentor around. He would never let Aria fall into danger. Of course, Thayne wouldn't spell out the whole truth. He just shook his head with a smile. "Stay calm, my friends. If Aria had the ability to make thousands of beasts submit, our sect wouldn't be facing a lack of successors, right? "When she first came up the mountain, the virtuous factions tested her foundation. You two should know what she's like." This comment made both Nedo and Veric pause. They were both getting on in years. Though they couldn't completely call the shots in their respective sects, they were still grandmasters. Back then, all the sects had indeed seen Aria's mediocre talent, which was why they had passed her off to Thayne. After all, she was the princess of Avalon. Not accepting her wo

Chapter 1799 Choosing Someone

Landon stood under the tree just like that as he watched Aria and Philip in the distant pavilion. He didn't move closer. Because of his status, it wasn't appropriate for him to get too involved with anyone. Besides, everyone from every sect knew he was the male companion she'd brought back from Hollowground. Compared to these wealthy young heirs, he wasn't worth much. To put it bluntly, he was just a male servant attending to her. Landon smiled mockingly. His dark eyes went cold, but he didn't make any moves. Wearing a pure white dress, Aria sat across from Philip, who was dressed extravagantly. Her eyes held a smile as she held the pot, pouring coffee for him. Whatever she said made Philip's face flush red, his eyes filled with warmth. The spring breeze carried the scent of sweet peaches, but it felt particularly unpleasant to him. Landon looked down at the fruit he'd picked earlier. It had been for her, but now it just tasted awful. The bitterness of the fruit seemed to spr

Chapter 1800 Being Able to Do Anything

What Landon had just done was anything but ordinary. Aria had wanted him to keep a low profile, and his act had been working fine before. What was going on with him today? But Landon acted like he hadn't noticed anything at all. He looked back at her and spoke with a casual tone. "This place isn't as safe as it seems. Are you sure you want to bring another person along?" Aria had picked up on how strange this place was too. The miasma was way too thick. Not only were there tons of evil spirits, but there were also poisonous insects everywhere. On top of that, there was also the vengefulness from people who'd died here, lingering all around them. The manifestation was an evil one, like something used for sacrificial rituals. But the ritual had clearly failed, which was why only the skull was left behind. The roadside was full of what looked like charred black wood, mostly just branches with no leaves. Aria kept feeling like something was hiding in the shadows behind those trees,
