Chapter 321
After a long silence, Solana waited until the warm sensation in her eyes disappeared.
Then, she took a deep breath, sat up on her knees, and bowed at Caspian.
Solana’s long hair fell, revealing her long, white neck and smooth back, forming a seductive arch.
However, Solana did not seem to mind, and she knew that Caspian felt the same.
“I hope that you can be my teacher,” Solana said, “This is the decision I made when I first met you, and it’s also the reason why I came to Heavenly Stars Sect.”
After saying that, Solana straightened her back, quietly looking at Caspian with her clear eyes.
From her gaze, Caspian could see a determination similar to his own.
“You’re both similar.”
When Caspian saw his reflection in Solana’s eyes, he suddenly recalled Kyle’s words.
At that time, Caspian had to admit that Solana was indeed similar to him in certain aspects.
After hearing Solana’s request, Caspian recalled what Wesley said when he handed the jade identification badge to him in Darnley Valley.
“There are some things that can be passed on…” Caspian mumbled.
That was also something he understood when he meditated for a few days in front of the Tree of the Sea of Stars.
What could be passed on was not only the bloodline and the techniques, but also a certain will and spirit.
Compared with the tangible bloodline and practice, the intangible will and spirit could be passed on for a longer time, and it was less likely to be obliterated by time.
Caspian looked at Solana’s serious expression, and he pondered for a moment before deciding what he believed was one of the most important decisions in his life.
“Sure.”
“Thank you for being my teacher, Master Caspian!”
Sunlight entered from the gaps between the dense leaves, shining on Caspian and Solana.
In that late spring and early summer afternoon, the two peers decided to be mentor-mentee.
Originally, they might never cross paths again, yet they were now bound together.
Then, Caspian sized Solana up and down, saying, “I won’t stop you from telling other people about our relationship, but I don’t think you’ll simply tell others anyway.
You’re a really quiet person, after all.”
Solana nodded and hummed in reply.
Caspian could not explain why, but he seemed to hear a hint of joy in her voice.
“Additionally, now that you’re my student, don’t you think you should do something to your teacher that you won’t do to others?” Caspian added.
Solana blinked as she was confused.
After a while, she nodded, “Okay.”
As she said that, Solana started to undress.
Her movements were extremely natural as if she did an everyday thing. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
However, just as Solana unbuttoned her top, Caspian directly stopped her.
“What are you doing?” Caspian was astonished.
“Doing something that I won’t do to others,” Solana replied seriously, and she did not seem to be joking.
“I truly believe that your father failed in raising you…” Caspian felt a sudden headache, and he rubbed his temples, “Alright, stop what you’re doing! It’s not what you think.
I only want you to smile as I‘ve never seen you smile before.
You do know how to smile, right?”
Caspian looked at Solana with full expectation.
On the other hand, Solana seemed to be somewhat embarrassed, perhaps because she was shy of what she did, or maybe she was bashful of smiling Caspian.
Soon, Caspian saw Solana’s mouth trembling slightly, and the corners of her eyes were also strangely twitching.
The delicate and charming beauty turned into a damaged porcelain doll in a flash.
When Caspian saw how hard Solana tried to force a smile, yet she showed an expression uglier than crying, Caspian ultimately gave up.
Then, he waved his hands and said, “Okay, that’s enough.
Stop smiling.”
Solana was instantly relieved when she heard that, and she quickly returned to her usual emotionless look.
“I wonder how Omar and Maya are doing…” Caspian looked into the distance.
The plan he made was to stay to observe the situation, whereas Omar, Maya, and Solana would go in three separate ways.
Then, they would meet in another place a few days later.
Now that Caspian killed Jayden and Pablo, Omar and Maya’s opponents were naturally left with the remaining Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples, Stanley and Yuri.
Based on Caspian estimation, Omar and Maya would be alright.
‘It’s useless for me to worry now, and I believe that they’re fine,’ Caspian thought.
Then, after ordering Solana to stay on the spot and meditate to recuperate, Caspian walked back and cut off Pablo’s head, shoving it into his storage back.
As long as they killed a Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciple and returned with their head as proof, the Heavenly Stars Sect would reward them privately.
Besides the mysterious map that Caspian had yet figured out, the most valuable item Caspian got from Pablo was also the book of the Seventh Brilliant Ghostly Chop.
The Seventh Brilliant Ghostly Chop was a high-rank Earth Grade martial skill.
Although it was not as useful for Caspian, he would still get some sect contribution points if he donated it to the sect.
Besides these two, the other thing that could benefit Caspian was Pablo’s head.
As Jayden’s head was blasted into pieces, his head was like a tomato that was stomped on, and it was completely unrecognizable.
Nonetheless, Caspian was rather lucky to find Jayden’s jade identification badge that flew out during the explosion.
Although the item could not be used as indisputable evidence, no one would doubt Caspian with his character.
The healing medicinal powder provided by Caspian was far more effective than expected.
After a night of rest, Solana’s wounds were almost completely healed.
The following morning, the two of them journeyed in the direction they agreed with Omar and Maya.
Along their way, they did not meet any more monsters.
However, Caspian and Solana saw a fierce battle beneath a mountain stream as they crossed the area.
Under the protection of several warriors and monks, more than a dozen mortals were constantly retreating.
They were besieged by about eight brown bears with white bristles around their necks.
Each brown bear was extremely strong, and they stood at the height of two adults combined.
The bear’s skin was thick and rough, and its talons were the size of a washbasin.
When it swung its claws, sounds of thunder and wind could be heard.
Its nails were about ten centimeters long, like sharp daggers that could tear open a steel plate as thick as a palm.
“White-Necked Talons Bear.
It’s only a wild beast.” Caspian swept his gaze across and saw the warriors and cultivators fighting against a group of beasts.
There were about five warriors and two cultivators protecting the group of mortals.
However, all five warriors were wounded for unknown reasons, and one of them even broke an arm, and blood oozed out from his wound.
The two cultivators were pale-faced.
Judging from their limited combat power, they were probably badly injured too, and they were just trying their best to fight the beasts.
The group of warriors and cultivators each had their injuries, and the White-Necked Talons Bear was notorious for withstanding attacks.
However, once those bears ascended to White-Mouthed Talons Bears, it would be harder to kill them.
Hence, those warriors and cultivators were being suppressed.
Just as Caspian glanced over, a White-Necked Talons Bear slapped the head of one of the warriors, smashing it into pieces.
Then, the corpse flew about 50 meters away before slamming to the ground.
