Chapter 221 A Woman
The God of Life Light was too polite actually because he was worried.
The sect's condition wasn't fine since the God of Light was attacked because the latter's condition wasn't fine either.
He was worried if Ciel caused trouble or whatever in this region which then resulted in many other problems.
"I'm just here traveling to see new things," Ciel replied casually, pretending that he didn't know anything.
Plus, he could investigate without any movement, only needing to use the power of his eyes.
"If you could, you wouldn't have to approach me like this, it's making it difficult for me," Ciel added, adding to the impression that he really just wanted to travel.
The old man calmed down a little when he heard that.
He replied, "well, I'll be going back now, but if there's anything you need, just call me, and I'll come to help."
He took a slow step back as he looked relieved.
After that, he flew back to the continent above.
Jian Wuxin and Mu Yixue observed him for a while before turning their gaze to look around.
They seemed not interested in the old man at all.
"Where do we go now?" asked Mu Yixue to Ciel.
"Let's find a restaurant or something, hotels are good too," Ciel replied as he took a step.
Mu Yixue immediately nudged his hand because of what he said.
"Let's just find a restaurant," she said with emphasis.
When they arrived at the bustling city center, she immediately chose a fancy restaurant that could be said to be quiet.
However, it was deserted because the food was overpriced so only certain people could afford it.
Ciel and the other two chose a table for three beside the window, ordering all the best menus so that the restaurant boss was happy to the point of almost jumping.
It might be quiet, but one visitor in one week was enough to give him a huge profit.
For Ciel and the others, the food they ordered was not the important thing.
Ciel gazed upwards, activating the power of the Eyes of Heaven so that his gaze could directly penetrate the bottom of the continent.
Instantly, he could see everything above the continent.
It was indeed a sect.
There were many buildings in various locations, from the outskirts to the center.
Ciel was only interested in the buildings in the center of the continent that obviously belonged to the elders.
They all formed a circle, surrounding the building that had a tower-like shape in the center.
It was tall and it seemed that the owner lived at the top.
Although Ciel did not see any excessive aura, but he could feel the boundless power hidden at the top of the building.
It was without a doubt a power equivalent to the Ice Goddess, the Elf Queen, and the Sword God.
This was the fourth one Ciel had seen.
He narrowed his eyes slightly before trying to peer into the building which he believed to be the place where the God of Light was now.
In an instant, his gaze penetrated every wall and formation of the building.
"Mm..." He was somewhat shocked when he saw what was inside the building.
At this moment, he saw a bald old man, who had a tall but rather thin body.
He was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in a room filled with light.
Although his eyes were closed, Ciel still felt that there was a boundless light hidden behind his eyelids.
He was without a doubt the God of Light, said to be the oldest God in the Realm of Life.
Of course, it wasn't the fact that he saw the God of Light that surprised Ciel.
He was surprised because of the old man's condition.
The robe he wore was full of holes and there was an object stuck in his shoulder.
It looked like some kind of steel, shaped like a thorn, and was pitch black in color.
While observing the object, Ciel felt his eyes become slightly sore.
It seemed to be made of extremely powerful energy and was supported by many extremely deadly Dao.
Ciel instantly came to the conclusion that it was created by the one who attacked the God of Light.
'It seems that the Lord of Light's condition is not good right now,' Ciel thought.
He said that because the God of Light hadn't removed that thing from his body. Perhaps he wasn't able to do so yet.
'Now, let's see what has happened.'
Ciel then rewound time.
He did so slowly because he didn't know for sure when the attack had happened.
When he finally found signs that the attack was happening, he finally increased the speed of the time rewind until just before the God of Light was attacked.
Because it was fast, so he hadn't seen the incident clearly.
As it was now, before being attacked, the God of Light was meditating, seemingly fully immersed.
Moments later, the figure of a woman suddenly appeared behind him.
She was a young-looking woman, perhaps in her early 20s, with long black hair.
Her skin was pale white and she was wearing a black dress that couldn't be said to be tight but also couldn't be said to be loose.
Saying that she was beautiful was certainly nothing wrong as she was indeed a very beautiful woman.
It's just that, when compared to Mu Yixue or Jian Wuxin, she can be said to seem like a more modest woman because she doesn't give off a flashy impression like them.
However, when looking at her seriously, Ciel instantly forgot about the other women, his mind seemingly thinking only of her.
That was obviously because she was a woman who hid infinite power. Even sometimes Ciel thought that she was the source of all power.
Even so, as Ciel continued to observe the woman, he was quickly stunned.
It turned out that her cultivation hadn't even reached the God level. She was only a Peak Demigod.
How could a Peak Demigod produce such power?
Ciel instantly thought of someone.
The Ancient Night King!
That king was a woman and she had been reincarnated in the Seven Realms so she became a living being of the Seven Realms.
With her previous life experience, there was nothing strange if her new cultivation had an unparalleled foundation.
Although it was a bit too much for a Demigod to injure a Supreme God, it was possible that she was relying on the tricks she had prepared in advance.
Keep in mind that her true self is a God King.
Even though she is only a False God King, she can still kill a Supreme God with ease.
When she reincarnated, her memories carried her Daoist understanding.
Shua!
Suddenly a black, steel-like thorn appeared in her hand.
That was what was stuck on the God of Light's shoulder at the moment.
With a swift movement, the woman stabbed the thorn into the God of Light's body.
The latter finally realized, and quickly tried to dodge.
He managed to dodge but his robes were instantly riddled with tears as the object hit his robes.
Just as he thought that he was safe, the woman suddenly moved quickly, too quickly for the God of Light's eyes to widen.
This time, he couldn't dodge.
The thorn-like object pierced through his shoulder, making his skin turn white instantly.
"You?" he said, shocked and scared because he had lived a long time without experiencing this kind of danger.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me?" he asked hurriedly.
"Just to get you hurt so you can't bother my son when he comes to this region," the woman replied calmly but didn't say who she was.
After saying that, her figure disappeared, leaving the God of Light with a confused expression.
However, a moment later, his mouth spewed blood.
"Ahhhh!" He screamed while holding his shoulder.
Luckily the place was enveloped by the formation or else his screams would have spread everywhere.
At the same time, Ciel was amazed by the information he heard from the woman.
She apparently made the God of Light injured with the aim of making him unable to interfere with her son who was coming to this region.
The question was who was the son?
Her reincarnation was still young, so it was unlikely that she had a son who could wander around. Perhaps she meant her son from her old body.
But who is that?
For a moment, Ciel thought that it was him but he quickly shook his head.
'I'm not a member of the Ancient Night Race,' he thought.
Of course, he was not a member of that race because he did not have the same power as them.
His current power was completely the same to the power of the people of the Seven Realms.
'Then who is the son?
That question kept popping up in Ciel's head and at the same time he kept thinking that it might be him even though he had already refuted it with a clear theory.
It was just that, his instincts seemed to say so.
