Legend Of Lightning Warriors II: The Eye of the Gods
Down Mountain
A dazzling white light enveloped the sky and earth. Sky overcast. Eve became unwary. Events such as when the Five Elements God descended to earth again occurred again.
The sky is split. From above the sky suddenly appeared like a giant hand that extended to the earth. The hand continued to descend until it grabbed the Five Element God and Huang Taiji.
Chen Li's eyes could not see anything but only a dazzling white color. A few moments later, everything disappeared.
Things become as they were. The universe is calm again. The sky and earth were silent again.
Chen Li was silent as well. He quietly stood up while looking at the place where the two figures had stood that meant a lot to him. The young man did not move one bit.
His body is there. But his soul went nowhere.
Did that soul go with the Five Elements God and Huang Taiji? Or is the young man's soul still there but dead?
The night has come. The moon looks dim. Grey clouds blanket the universe. The wind that usually blows, now there is nothing at all. The sound of night animals that were usually crowded was lost to nowhere.
Where are they all going? What the hell happened to them? Are they the same as Chen Li, feeling loneliness and solitude?
The young man was sitting on a black rock where he used to live with Huang Taiji and the Five Elements God.
On the rock there are usually three people. But now only one person. In a place that was usually crowded by the sound of laughter, it was now quiet.
Chen Li was reminiscing about the good times with his two teachers. He sat with wine in his hand. His pair of eyes looked down at the clear river water.
Looks like the fish went back and forth with a colleague or maybe his family. They seem free. Looks happy ria.
And Chen Li? Now it is mourning.
Is it only human who feels suffering? Are the animals only happy, but not sad? If so, wouldn't it be better to be like them?
Chen Li downed his wine jar. He wants to forget the various problems that are currently plaguing him. Although the matter cannot be eliminated forever, but at least he can forget for a while.
The young man continued to drink until he finally dissolved in his own world. His body was falling on a black rock. In just an instant, he had fallen asleep with grief that never disappeared.
Early in the morning Chen Li had just woken up from his sleep. The birds sound again. The rays of the sun returned the light greeting the universe.
Now is a new day. Chen Li's spirit was also new.
Although all the suffering has not been completely gone, but at least he is better than yesterday.
Doesn't that say, too? Today should be better than yesterday.
Chen Li soaked in the river to clean himself up. When he finished, he immediately put on new clothes.
Clothes with magnificent robes of the same color. The clothes are white. The robe is also white. Even the mask that partially covered his face so that his pair of eyes did not look was even white.
White is holy. White is clean too.
Why does the young man like white?
The reason was probably because he wanted to wash away this dirty world. Another reason might be because Chen Li wanted to rid the world of dirty human hands.
After solidifying his resolve and rounding out his intentions, he stood up. Tie a white head made of silk cloth he tightened a little. The cloth belt on his waist was cleaned from the dust caused by the wind.
Everything is ready. All sorts of supplies have been obtained.
It's time to go down the mountain.
Yush!!!
The white shadow rushed forward like a rapidly flying eagle. His luxurious clothes and robes fluttered grand. A pair of wings suddenly grew behind the young man's back.
Where's the goal now? Will he head straight for the Wei Empire?
Except to the Sung Empire.
He has an appointment with someone. More precisely a promise to himself to go back and meet that person.
Who will he meet?
###
Chen Li had already arrived at his destination. The young man stood for a moment several tens of spears at the flying entrance of the city.
A grand, grand gate was plastered in front of the eyes. On it was an inscription made from gold ink.
The writing was very beautiful. Under the sunlight, the letters written looked much more beautiful.
Qinghai City.
The name in question is the name of the city.
After three years of closing down, it turned out that the situation in Qinghai City was still the same as the previous years. There was nothing different in the city except the addition of magnificent buildings lined up.
The building is almost the same. Equally beautiful, equally majestic. There are more and more shops.
The surrounding residents who previously did not have a fixed stall, now they have their own shops. It seems like lately, the economy in the city is fairly advanced. And that is proven now.
Chen Li began to slowly step into the gate. As long as he stepped, his eyes did not stop watching the surroundings.
The place he was looking for the first time was a fancy restaurant. For the past three years, he's only been eating that food.
Now that he had gone down the mountain and was free from confinement, of course he wanted to enjoy a good and luxurious meal.
The question of how much food costs, there is no doubt. Treasures abundant. What else is he afraid of?
The young man walked into the biggest restaurant there. No half-hearted, so big and luxurious the restaurant, even the room amounted to five floors.
A maid of twenty-five welcomed herself politely and kindly.
"Please enter Young Master," he said as he bowed respectfully.
"Thank you,"
Chen Li went inside. He looked around the bottom of the room for a moment. It turns out it's full there. There is no empty table at all. Some people are even willing to eat while crouching or standing.
The young man then went up, Chen Li's goal was not the bottom floor. Except the top floor.
Every floor he passed by was always crowded by visitors. Those who come from all kinds of people. Some also come from warriors.
His presence made everyone look at him. The various kinds of gazes they threw at Chen Li. Some stare in awe, stare with wondering eyes, or even stare because they do not like it.
Regardless of what gazes the visitors gave, the young man did not bother. He does not care much about the views of others.
Why were they staring at Chen Li in such a way?
The answer is only one.
Because the clothes he was wearing were very luxurious. Because the sword on his back is very antique. Anyone can judge that the sword has a very high value.
Any antique and high-value heirloom weapon, must be extremely valuable. Besides being valuable, it must also be very sharp.
Which people of the martial world are not interested in antique and sharp weapons?
