Chapter 725: Yao Guang Appears (1)
Silence, suffocating silence. Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi didn’t do anything. The sound of clothes dragging on the ground sounded, as if someone was walking on the ground in a long robe. The sound of friction was gradually approaching. Yun Feng pursed her lips and put Yaoyao down in her arms, hinting that she should stay here and not move. Yaoyao nodded obediently. Then, Yun Feng had already walked out from the side. Qu Lanyi was about to come out too when Yun Feng gave him a reassuring look.
Yun Feng walked out from the side with a faint smile on her face. She raised her black eyes and saw the person who appeared in front of her. He was wearing a black robe that wrapped around his entire body. Even his face was covered in shadows. The two of them looked at each other and didn’t say anything. Yun Feng stood there with a calm gaze.
The body wrapped in the black robe moved. A slender arm slowly extended. Yun Feng saw an overly fair hand and something seemed to have flashed on the back of the hand. It was so fast that she couldn’t see it clearly at all. The hand slowly lifted the hood on the head. There was elegance in the slow movement. The slender and fair fingers reflected this even more. When the hood was taken off, the face hidden under the black shadow was completely revealed.
His skin was too fair, and his black hair was slightly long. There were traces of age on his handsome facial features. This was a slightly old face, but it gave people a feeling that it was much more than that. His black eyes were deep and there was a smile at the corners of his mouth. This smile carried a sense of arrogance from the inside.
This was a man who was used to sitting on the top. Yun Feng smiled slightly as the man sized Yun Feng up slightly with his eyes. “Yun Feng?” There was a coldness in his voice, a kind of noble coldness that couldn’t be approached.
“Yes, I’m Yun Feng.” If it were someone else, they might have already bowed unconsciously, but Yun Feng was different. Even though the man in front of her didn’t emit any pressure, Yun Feng could vaguely feel the level of strength buried deep in this body. He was the president of the Magic Union on the West Continent, the only dark-element mage at the Lord Level that she knew so far!
The man raised his eyebrows gently, as if he was quite interested. “It’s hard not to know your name after coming to the East Continent.”
Yun Feng smiled. The man in front of her was a Lord Level expert. With her current level, she certainly had to be careful. “How did you know I was here?” The man asked casually as a pressure pressed towards Yun Feng. Yun Feng smiled. “Of course, it’s because someone told me. President, you should know how anxious the Magic Union on the West Continent is to find you.”
The man chuckled and gently swung his black robe. “Do you want anything from me?”
Yun Feng was slightly stunned. The man in front of her didn’t seem to be so easy to talk to. “Yes, I do need your help, President.”
“Oh.” The man raised his eyebrows again and sized Yun Feng up with interest. “Tell me. What’s the matter?”
“I want to ask, President, can the dead be resurrected?”
The man’s expression froze, and then the corners of his mouth curled up. “Everyone knows that the dead can’t be resurrected, but… for a dark mage, it’s certainly a different story.”
Yun Feng’s eyes brightened. It was as her ancestor said! It seemed that the hope of resurrecting Mu Canghai was on this person! “Then… how can we resurrect the dead?”
The man didn’t say anything else. Yun Feng also suppressed her mind and waited for the answer reluctantly. She couldn’t be anxious. She had no idea what the personality of the man in front of her was at all. She was the one who needed a favor right now. If she didn’t care about anything else, she would easily lose it here!
“You want to know?” The man asked softly. Yun Feng looked up. “Yes, I do.”
The man suddenly chuckled. “There’s a price to pay for resurrecting the dead. A price you can’t imagine.”
“What kind of price?”
The man looked past Yun Feng into the distance. “It depends on who you’re going to resurrect. Family, lover, friend. Naturally, the price you have to pay is different.”
Yun Feng frowned. “What do you mean?”
The man suddenly raised his hand. Yun Feng didn’t have time to react at all. She only felt a stream of black air flow out of the man’s body and hit a wall directly. Yun Feng’s body trembled. That was where Qu Lanyi was!
“Light-element brat, it’s not a good habit to eavesdrop.” The man’s deep voice came out. Broken bricks lay on the ground. After a cloud of dust, Qu Lanyi’s body was already leaning against another wall in a sorry state, but his limbs were stiff, as if he was restrained by an invisible force.
“Senior!” Yun Feng sweated. The man made a move. Qu Lanyi grunted awkwardly and was nailed to the wall. The man glanced at Yun Feng, who said, “He’s my companion.”
“Oh?” The man retracted his arm and his body was under the black robe again, leaving only his pale face. Qu Lanyi was nailed to the wall. He only felt that his body was on fire. Damn you, old man!
The man only seemed to have noticed Qu Lanyi and didn’t know about Yaoyao’s existence. Yun Feng felt a bit shocked. They were obviously too weak in front of the Lord Level! They didn’t even have the power to fight back!
“Who is he to you?” asked the man. Yun Feng frowned. “A companion.”
“A companion?” The man repeated with interest. He raised his black robe, and Qu Lanyi’s body had already come down from the wall. He staggered and knelt on the ground, coughing awkwardly. “Don’t you need something from me?” The man looked at Yun Feng. His gaze made Yun Feng uncomfortable.
Yun Feng looked at those black eyes for a long time. “Senior, please resurrect someone for me.”
Qu Lanyi was stunned and looked at Yun Feng in confusion. He didn’t know anything about Mu Canghai. Ever since he met Yun Feng, Mu Canghai had already disappeared from this world. Mu Xiaojin rarely mentioned him. Qu Lanyi didn’t know why Yun Feng wanted to find the president of the Magic Union. Now, he finally understood that she wanted to resurrect the dead.
“It’s possible to resurrect him.” The man was surprisingly easy-going, but Yun Feng felt that a huge trap was waiting for her to jump into. “No matter who you resurrect, you have to pay the price. He’ll be the price.” The man’s arm shook slightly. Qu Lanyi only felt that his body, which had just taken a breath, was pulled by a fierce force and nailed to a wall again!
