Chapter 262: The Mystery of the Cliff
Chapter 262: Chapter 262: The Mystery of the Cliff
After issuing a warning to the newly inducted members of the Seven Stars Sword Clan, Cain Wright turned around and left.
Wyatt Barnes followed the group of new disciples to collect their uniforms.
After collecting the uniforms, Wyatt looked around, slightly surprised, "Has Warren Hudson left?"
He had assumed that since Elder Cain Wright had already left, Warren Hudson would take the opportunity to attack him because of the deep animosity he’d displayed so far...
But right now, Warren Hudson was nowhere to be found.
"Did he realize something?"
Wyatt was somewhat curious, his first thought being that Warren Hudson had seen through him.
Yet, could Warren Hudson see that far?
Wyatt was skeptical.
"Maybe he encountered some urgent matter."
A thought flashed through Wyatt’s mind.
However, with Warren Hudson absent, Wyatt didn’t think too much about it and started to look for his dwelling and practice location on the Heavenly Authority Peak...
As one could imagine, the best spots on the peak must have been occupied.
Therefore, if he wanted a good location, he would have to forcibly take it from someone else’s hands.
Feeling no resentment about this, Wyatt accepted the ways of the Cloud Skies Continent; where only the powerful were revered and it was a world of survival for the fittest!
"The priority right now is to find a good place."
Wyatt was clear that any further thinking was useless at this point. All he needed to do was locate a suitable destination and then take action.
"Hiss~~"
At this moment, a rustling sound was heard from within Wyatt’s long sleeves. It was the two small pythons waking up from their slumber.
Upon reaching a secluded spot on the Heavenly Authority Peak, Wyatt let the two little guys out...
The next moment.
Just one glance at the two little guys, and he couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
"Hiss~~"
The two small pythons, wagging their tails at Wyatt, a pair of golden and silver eyes, twinkling with a sense of triumph.
"You two little rascals, have you actually advanced?"
Wyatt was somewhat speechless; he distinctly remembered that early this morning when they’d just left Ink Bamboo City, these two little fellows were at the ’Sixth-Order of Original Infant Realm’...
However, just now, he had noticed with his keen spiritual strength; both small pythons had actually advanced.
They advanced to the ’Seventh-Order of Original Infant Realm’!
Seeing Wyatt’s surprise, the two small pythons’ eyes gleamed with satisfaction. They waved their tails, opened their mouths to show off their cold, gleaming fangs as if communicating something with Wyatt.
"Are you guys looking to settle a score with ’Little Gold’?"
Wyatt could vaguely guess what the two little guys were trying to convey and asked uncertainly.
The two little creatures nodded in unison, their actions so synchronized they appeared rehearsed...
Wyatt chuckled, astonished that he had managed to understand the expression of the two little fellows, "Little Black, Little White...I’m afraid you guys won’t be able to find ’Little Gold’ for the time being."
Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, the two grew restless, turning into two lightning streaks, sweeping around as if they were searching for something.
In the end, they returned disappointedly to Wyatt’s hand, their eyes staring at him, as if inquiring about something.
"Little Gold is now with Keer, and Keer isn’t with me."
Wyatt shrugged and shook his head after a moment. Whispering comforting words, he said: "Alright, I’ll take you to find it when I have time..."
Saying so, Wyatt reluctantly put the two unwilling little guys back into his long sleeves.
As for the ’grudge’ of the two little guys, he was somewhat helpless, and at the same time, he felt sorry for Little Gold...
Unless Little Gold also advanced, it was unlikely to be a match for the combined powers of Little Black and Little White.
"The Heavenly Authority Peak is so big, I don’t know where the good training places are."
Wyatt had already walked a certain distance upward. Along the way, he saw several ravines on the mountainside, but he really wasn’t interested in these ravines.
The ravines were almost devoid of light, it was as dark as night...
At some point, Wyatt found himself at the peak of the Heavenly Authority Peak.
On top of the peak, there were no handrails or fences. One misstep could lead to plunging into the abyss, crashing into pieces...
Standing at the top, his vision was completely blocked, all that stood before him was a vast expanse.
"It seems that finding a suitable place for cultivation isn’t easy... it’s really cold."
Wyatt could feel the cold wind blowing in his face, making him feel a bit chilly. He couldn’t help but tighten his clothes.
"Let’s go down and see, we are already near the peak along the cable bridge...there should be more choices down there."
As Wyatt made the ascent, he came across a few ravines. Even though people could inhabit them, they didn’t; obviously, people avoided these ravines.
Just as Wyatt prepared to go down,
Woosh! Woosh!
His long sleeve swelled up and a black and a white flash darted out.
"Little Black, Little White, what are you doing?"
Wyatt noticed that the two pythons were now perched on the edge of the peak. If they weren’t careful, they could fall off.
Consequently, Wyatt’s complexion utterly changed in an instant.
"Hiss~~"
Who knew the two pythons seemed oblivious to their imminent danger and turned their heads towards Wyatt, still flickering their tongues at him.
"You two mischievous little ones."
Wyatt, feeling helpless, sauntered over and with one slap, caught the two pythons in his hand. "Little Black, Little White, stop messing around, let’s hurry and go down...Don’t tell me you aren’t afraid of breaking apart upon hitting the ground?"
By the end of it, Wyatt Barnes glared at the two little fellows.
"Hiss~~"
Unexpectedly, the two little ones became restless again, broke free from Wyatt Barnes’s grasp, returned to the side of the cliff, nodded at Wyatt, and hit the cliffside with their tails twice. It seemed they were trying to communicate something to Wyatt.
"What are you trying to tell me?"
Wyatt knitted his brows, looked at the little python, and slightly stuck his head out to look at the cliff but didn’t discover anything.
The cliffside was extremely steep, one can imagine, if someone fell from here, they would undoubtedly be shattered to pieces, even for a descending deity, there would be no room for life.
"Hiss~~"
Quickly, a scene that Wyatt did not expect happened. He saw the two little pythons sliding down the cliff and disappeared before his eyes.
"Little Black, Little White!"
Wyatt’s face dramatically changed, leaning against the side of the cliff, stretching half of his body out. Vast, hazy cloud fog filled his sight, where could the two little pythons possibly be?
"Little Black! Little White!"
Wyatt looked extremely upset. Over these years, he had already treated the two little pythons like his own family, he never saw them as mere Fierce Beasts.
Now, they just met their demise by falling off the cliff?
In Wyatt’s eyes, a hint of grief emerged.
In his heart, infinite regret surged.
He should never have come to the peak of Heavenly Authority Peak, now look what’s happened. The two little ones are gone just like that.
"Hiss~~"
"Hiss~~"
...
Suddenly, Wyatt’s pupils contracted, he vaguely thought he had heard something, it sounded like the tongue-flicking sound of small pythons.
Only when he looked down, there was still nothing but vague clouds, no trace of the little pythons.
"Am I hallucinating?"
A trace of doubt rose in Wyatt’s heart, the more he thought about it, the more he was convinced.
"Hiss~~"
But, isn’t this hallucination a bit too strange? Isn’t it endless?
Whistle! Whistle!
At that moment, Wyatt saw the cloud fog dissipating from his sight, and the figures of two little pythons appeared before his eyes.
It was Little Black, flicking its python tail twice, waving away the cloud fog.
Only then did Wyatt discover that on the side of the steep cliff, there was a crooked tree, growing out horizontally from the cliff.
Strangely, although this crooked tree was growing on the cliffside where not even a bird would poop, its bright and lush foliage burst with vigor. Its sturdy branch was inserted into the side of the cliff, anchored as securely as Mount Tai.
Soon, the cloud fog drifted in and again blocked Wyatt’s line of sight.
Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!
...
This time, the two pythons went wild together, with their tails flicking and completely waving away the cloud fog obstructing Wyatt’s sight.
The crooked tree again appeared before Wyatt’s eyes.
Not only that, Wyatt found that the two little pythons were signaling for him to follow them down.
"You two little guys... I’ll trust you this time. Don’t get me killed."
With a sharp inhale, Wyatt stared fixedly at the crooked tree, pressured his feet, and his entire body descended, standing steadily on the branch of the crooked tree.
It must be said, this crooked tree was sturdy. Wyatt, with his height of 1.8 meters and weighing more than 150 pounds, caused no shaking on the tree trunk when he landed...
"Little Black, Little White, have you found something?"
Wyatt looked at the two little pythons with a puzzled face. Now, he realized that these two little pythons were not impulsive or desperate, they had found something.
"Hiss~~"
Little Black nodded at Wyatt, its gold pupils fixed on the cliffside.
The silver pupils of Little White were also completely fixed on the cliffside before them.
"Is there something wrong here?"
Treading on the trunk of the crooked tree, Wyatt advanced slowly, stretching his hand to feel the cliffside, his face puzzled.
Whoosh!
A flash of black lightning shot past, it was Little Black sprinting into the cliffside.
"Little Black!"
Wyatt’s face turned ashen, with Little Black bolting at such a fast speed, even if it could create a gap in the cliffside, it will surely be bounced off by the backlash into the deep abyss below, where it would undeniably perish.
However, the next moment, the shock on Wyatt’s face vanished, replaced by bafflement.
Because after Little Black’s body darted into the cliffside, it disappeared.
There was a small hole in the cliffside.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Little White also moved, created a hole in the cliffside just like before and then went inside the cliff.
"Hiss~~"
Just as Wyatt was standing there, dazed, the sound of the two little pythons flicking their tongues, passed into Wyatt’s ears from the small holes they created.
"Could there be a hidden treasure inside?"
Wyatt’s eyes sharpened as he examined the cliff before him.
Quickly, he discerned something amiss!
