Chapter 679: Girl of Mystery
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
The fire lake was large with a radius of over 3000 miles. In many streams from a range of directions, there was lava swarming in, which led to high temperature in the fire lake. Lu Li and the others were flying higher, fearing that they might be burnt.
It was strange that there were living fish in the scorching hot lava. It was said that at the bottom there were elixirs with properties of fire…
Lu Li and the group were in no mood to check for elixirs. They moved on carefully. They were informed that in the middle of the lake there was an island with a huge volcano. The 15 people died after entering the volcano.
They arrived at the middle of the lake in an hour and saw the island together with the towering volcano. They could see the dark smoke from afar.
Instead of landing on the island right away, they circled around it and used their psychic powers to the fullest extent to check for strange beings.
The island was safe with no living creatures nor Inhibition Formations. God of Meng and Lu Li looked at each other. God of Meng and Ye Cha landed on the island first and moved gradually toward the volcano crate.
When all four arrived, they checked into the volcano with psychic power. However, it was deep and they could find nothing.
“Let’s go in!”
Lu Li signaled. All drew their weapons. God of Meng took out a huge saber and the Holy Grade armor appeared over his body. He was armed to the teeth, ready to fight.
God of Meng took the lead. He had to because he had the strongest defense. Usually, he was the human shield. Ye Cha followed him and then Lu Li. Yan Zhen was at the back of the team.
This volcano was an active one with dark smoke coming out. They couldn’t tell when it erupted recently. The temperature was so high that as soon as they entered, they started to sweat and suffer.
Fortunately, they were all warriors with great strength. They could endure the heat. They began to do downward slowly and kept checking with psychic power. No sign of trouble could escape their attention.
“Everything looks fine to me.”
They had reached the bottom and they could see the boiling lava. However, they found nothing wrong, nor did they find the remains of the more than 10 dead scouts.
“Curious!”
Lu Li looked down at the lava with his eyebrows knitted. There was no opening at the bottom of the volcano, nor Inhibition Formations. Nothing was amiss.
God of Meng and the others were equally confused. Ye Cha was still checking every corner. Cyan Phoenix Race produced the best scouts of the Great Land. Not even an Earth Immortal Realm warrior in hiding here could escape Ye Cha’s attention.
However!
After a moment, Ye Cha shook his head and said, “It’s okay. Everything is normal.”
“Now let’s go out!”
Lu Li waved his hand. If Ye Cha found nothing wrong, then nothing was wrong. It was so hot in there that even Lu Li found it hard to stand.
When they were about to ascend up, Ye Cha suddenly looked down. A glint of coldness rose in his eyes. God of Meng and the others put their guards up as well. God of Meng and Yan Zhen stood in front of Lu Li and stared down into the lava.
Lu Li finally found something wrong. He felt chilly. The chilly air was like a cold breeze in a spring day. It sneaked into his body, making him shiver.
In such a high-temperature environment there came a cold air that made Lu Li tremble. How powerful was this monster?
They were more than 3000 feet above the lava. They began to extend psychic powers downward. Soon, Ye Cha, God of Meng and Yan Zhen were stunned. When Lu Li finally had a clear visual, he was taken aback as well.
Beneath the lava, there was a lady, a stunningly beautiful girl!
“Splash, splash~”
The lava was stirring up. A person emerged from the lava. Outside of her was a light shield which had prevented the lava from seeping in and burning her skin.
This was a pretty and sexy young lady. She wore her dark blue hair in a casual bun. She had on a dark blue armor with a golden hem, revealing quite a view in her chest area. Lu Li and the group were looking down from above, they could see the pretty and raised area. Her waist was slim and there was a bronze belt around. In the middle of the belt was a ruby.
She was wearing a strange short skirt as if it was made by many furry tails. The skirt was so short that it only covered her raised bottom. Her thighs were exposed. She had on black boots. Her shins were slim and long, very pleasant to the eyes.
In her hands were two beautiful revolving knives. The knives were long and narrow with a glare bouncing off from them. On the knives are carved mysterious patterns. They were of high end. The black cape she was wearing gave her a majestic and heroic look.
She had classic oval face with delicate features. Her little nose added a touch of wit to her. Her eyes were big and bright. And yet, there was such a glint of coldness in them. One look into her eyes would make people feel they had plummeted into an ice cellar, freezing from head to toe.
If the scale of beauty was ranked from zero to 100 where Lu Ling was 100 to Lu Li, then this maiden was at least 98. In some ways, her bearing was better than Lu Ling’s/
“Human Sovereign Realm warrior!”
The four stopped looking at her chest or her thighs. They didn’t care about her looks as they felt fear.
This maiden looked young. She must be of only 17 or 18 but she had reached the Human Sovereign Realm. More importantly, the four felt fatal danger as if they were not faced with a pretty girl, but a ferocious Beast King!
They were standing above her. That being said, they felt she was the one looking down on them. It seemed to them the maiden had come from the heavens and she was the fairy, while they were nothing than ordinary.
“Bobba, bobba?”
The girl opened her mouth and from it came a string of strange words. Yan Zhen didn’t understand and was blinking in confusion. Lu Li, God of Meng and Ye Cha, on the other hand, were taken aback. The girl was talking in the ancient language which they understood.
She was saying, “You are looking for me?”
Ye Ru sent the right message by crushing two jade talismans. He did run into a human, as human as Lu Li, with hands and feet…
However…
How could there be a human in the Inferno? How could it be a young lady with such terrifying talent? A girl that could speak the ancient language?
Ancient language was spoken in the remote ages. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, ancient language evolved to the language that was used today. It was only plausible that the girl belonged to an ancient race that had escaped to a small world and was cut from the outside for hundreds of thousands of years.
Lu Li and the others felt a bit relieved even though their enemy had emerged. The enemy was a human being, not a monster nor a demon, which made it easier to deal with.
Lu Li asked in ancient language, “Yes, we are looking for you. Who are you? Where are you from? Why did you kill our men?”
The girl had a cold look. She showed no emotions. She was like a proud swan. She replied indifferently, “Where am I from? You country bumpkins wouldn’t know even if I told you. As for who I am, you don’t have the right to know. Why did I kill people? Because…I was not happy. You have disturbed me so I am in a worse mood. So…tough luck.”
