King's Awakening Chapter 712

Chapter 712: Chapter 712: Escape!

At this moment, Mr. Leon was truly panicked.

Before this, he never expected that an obscure youngster would possess such an intimidating aura.

All these signs seemed to suggest that this seemingly ordinary young man might have some unknown origin.

Otherwise, how could an ordinary person possess such a terrifying aura?

Could one possess such a strong aura unless they had walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

It's abnormal!

This is definitely abnormal behavior!

Could it be that this kid is from some powerful force?

Did he run out to play the role of a tiger pretending to be a pig?

Thinking of this, Mr. Leon's brow furrowed into a “Chuan ” shape.

However, no matter how much he thought about it, he could never confirm White Mitchell's identity.

On the other hand, the servants of Mr. Leon, seeing Mr. Leon's distressed state, became even more panic-stricken.

“Fine, as long as you let go of our Young Master, we can agree to let you leave.” In desperation, everyone had to give up their pursuit of White Mitchell.

At this critical juncture, Mr. Leon's life was the thing they should worry about most.

In response to everyone's concession, White Mitchell smiled faintly and looked at Mr. Leon, “It seems your men are much more sensible.”

“You!” Mr. Leon's face was full of frustration. If it weren't for the fact that his life was in White Mitchell's hands, he would make White Mitchell pay the price, regardless of his great background.

But unfortunately, the situation was stronger than people, so he had to swallow this bitter pill silently.

In no time, White Mitchell had Mr. Leon by the neck, holding him like a chicken, and carried Mr. Leon through the crowd.

Despite their worry, the crowd dared not rush forward rashly.

“You all stay where you are, if I find anyone following us, prepare to collect his corpse!” White Mitchell calmly said.

But when these words came out, Mr. Leon's men weren't exactly happy.

Letting White Mitchell leave was no problem, but they need to ensure Mr. Leon's safety first.

What if White Mitchell didn't release Mr. Leon after he was safe? Would they all be doomed?

Thinking of this, a muscular man couldn't help but say, “No, your words are not trustworthy, we should send someone to follow!”

White Mitchell gave it some thought and looked at the muscular man, “Fine, you can follow. But, you must maintain a distance of over a hundred meters from me at all times. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”

Upon hearing this, the muscular man nodded heavily, looked at everyone and said, “You all wait here for my news. If this kid doesn't release our master, come right away and cut him to pieces!”

Everyone nodded in agreement, then watched White Mitchell begrudgingly.

Seeing this, White Mitchell coldly smiled, swaggered off with Mr. Leon, slowly vanishing from everyone's sight.

This was the territory of the Air Temple. To escape, White Mitchell had to get far enough away.

At this time, the God of Heaven War was still waiting outside for him. There must be no mishaps during this process.

Otherwise, if they discovered the God of Heaven War's existence, they might threaten White Mitchell with his life.

In White Mitchell's eyes, the God of Heaven War's life was far more valuable than the lives of a thousand Mr. Leons.

Therefore, to ensure the safety of the God of Heaven War, White Mitchell didn't head towards the predetermined rendezvous point, but opted to leave in the opposite direction instead.

In no time, White Mitchell was ten kilometers away from the Air Temple, with Mr. Leon in tow.

Before him was a vast dense forest.

“Kid, as long as you enter this dense forest, even with many of us, we can't catch you immediately. Now, you can let him go, right?” The muscular man who had been following White Mitchell spoke up.

White Mitchell glanced at the forest ahead, then looked back at Mr. Leon in his hands with an amused expression.

Mr. Leon was now red-faced, even slightly purplish, looking like he was about to suffocate. He couldn't even utter a single word.

“Brother, please let me go, I'm really about to suffocate if you don't let me go.” Mr. Leon wailed in his heart.

Seeing this, White Mitchell lifted Mr. Leon and threw him heavily.

Upon seeing this, without bothering to comfort Mr. Leon, the muscular man lunged at White Mitchell.

Upon seeing the situation, White Mitchell displayed a face hinting he had expected this turn of events. He then calmly spoke, “Instead of wasting your time attacking me, perhaps you should check on your master instead.”

Our master?

The burly man froze, then quickly shifted his focus to Mr. Leon.

Mr. Leon, who had been sent flying, was heading straight towards a boulder-filled clearing.

At first glance, these scattered rocks seemed ordinary but, among them, lay some with sharp edges.

At that moment, Mr. Leon was battered and breathless, literally beaten to the ground with no energy to resist.

If he crashed into them directly, it would probably result in severe injuries, if not death!

“Damn, you're ruthless!”

The burly man growled his teeth then, immediately redirected his course to rescue Mr. Leon.

Meanwhile, White Mitchell didn't hesitate to turn around and dive headfirst into the thick forest.

“*cough* *cough* *cough*…”

On the other side, Mr. Leon, who was rescued by the burly man, gasped for breath audibly.

However, it didn't take long before he started berating the man: “Fuck! Useless freaks! You're all useless!

What are you waiting for? Get those useless fellas over here, search for me!

Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, find that brat for me!!!”

The burly man's face twisted bitterly. Where on earth was he supposed to find someone in such a vast forest?

By the time their troops arrived, White Mitchell would undoubtedly have vanished without a trace.

Regardless, with Mr. Leon's command, he had no choice but to comply and call for backup.

On the other side, after White Mitchell entered the forest, he didn't stray far. Instead, he shifted direction promptly to rendezvous with the God of Heaven War.

While all the folk from Heavenly Dragon City were searching for White Mitchell in the forest, he was elsewhere, finding the God of Heaven War and joining up with him.

“Superior, how did it go?” As soon as White Mitchell appeared, the God of Heaven War greeted him with concern.

After all, White Mitchell had spent a considerable amount of time alone in Air Temple. If it weren't for Mitchell's timely arrival, the God of Heaven War would have gone looking for him.

“Met with some trouble, but I've handled it. Let's head back.” White Mitchell spoke casually, and then he promptly led the God of Heaven War back to regroup with the Earth War God and Lucy.

Soon after, White Mitchell managed to regroup with the Earth War God.

Once they rendezvoused, White Mitchell started discussing their upcoming journey and future plans with the Earth War God and God of Heaven War.

As for Lucy, she couldn't find anyone from the Beast Controlling Sect for the time being. Therefore, she had no choice but to tag along with White Mitchell. Wherever White Mitchell and his team went, she had to follow.

However, Lucy seemed to be having fun.

In her opinion, even if she found the Beast Controlling Sect and joined them, it wouldn't be as interesting as tagging along with White Mitchell and his gang.

For her, this ordinary adventure was too novel and exciting.

It was a feeling she could never experience within the protected environment of the Beast Controlling Sect.

If she could, she would prefer to always be with White Mitchell and their team, enjoying this perpetual adventure.

Of course, this was because Lucy herself had been sheltered for too long. She hadn't truly experienced the dangers yet.

While Lucy was observing White Mitchell diligently planning, on their end, he had a rough plan for their upcoming journey too.

According to the notes left by George, there were three locations where George deemed potential resources could be present.

However, only one site among those was likely to contain actual treasures.

The resources in the other two locations were practically useless for White Mitchell and his comrades.

Several days had passed since the opening of Emperor Qing's Relics. Their remaining time was limited.

So, White Mitchell had to find as many resources as possible within the shortest time. Only then could he take them back for his comrades who fought fiercely outside.

“So be it then, we will set off immediately, heading to Bald Dragon Island!” White Mitchell commanded.

Bald Dragon Island was the most significant place mentioned in George's notes.

Even George himself didn't dare set foot there lightly.

Nevertheless, George spent several years investigating, gaining a rough understanding of Bald Dragon Island. He recorded all details in his notes.

According to George's notes, Bald Dragon Island is located on the periphery of the entire Emperor Qing's Relics, infinitely close to the intermediate area.

It is the deepest place he could explore in the entire Emperor Qing's Relics.

Further in, lie the intermediate area and even the most mysterious heart of the realm!

Those places, unless for transcendent powers like the Beast Controlling Sect, would require massive resources to venture into.

For a power like George's, being able to explore as far as Bald Dragon Island is the deepest they can reach within their capability.

However, this also proved George's ambition.

Normally, it would be a wild fancy for a power like George's to enter Bald Dragon Island.

But George must have known that if he wants to reach the skies in a single bound, he could only risk everything.

If he did manage to retrieve a treasure from Bald Dragon Island, his power could rise to even higher levels. It's not impossible for him to become comparable to Heavenly Dragon City's power.

To ensure success, George made very thorough preparations.

Unfortunately, due to the arrival of White Mitchell, all George's efforts were in vain. Instead, they became a boon for White Mitchell.

At this time, upon hearing that White Mitchell and the others were going to go to Bald Dragon Island, a look of surprise flashed across Lucy's face: “Bald Dragon Island? You guys are going to Bald Dragon Island?”

Oh?

White Mitchell and the two others were stunned, then looked at Lucy: “Do you know about Bald Dragon Island?”

At the mention of this, Lucy nodded her head: “I have heard my senior brothers and sisters talk about it before. Bald Dragon Island is the most dangerous place in the entire periphery of Emperor Qing's Relics.

They said, there is a powerful Spiritual Beast there that possesses spiritual intelligence. Even the geniuses from our Beast Controlling Sect, without anyone protecting them, wouldn't dare to set foot on the island easily.

As for you guys wanting to go to Bald Dragon Island, I think you should give up on that idea. It's unnecessary to take such a risk, because my senior brothers and sisters said there's nothing valuable on the island.”

Nothing valuable?

Upon hearing this, White Mitchell, with a smile, asked: “What exactly are these 'unvaluable things' you speak of?”

“They're just thousand-year-old medicinal materials, not worth much. In our Beast Controlling Sect, thousand-year-old medicinal materials are used to feed Spiritual Beasts. It's not profitable to provoke a Spiritual Beast that has gained spiritual intelligence just for these things.” Lucy said seriously.

Hearing this, White Mitchell couldn't help but to give a bitter smile and exchanged glances with the God of Heaven War and Earth War God.

Thousand-year medicinal materials… are worthless in the eyes of a genius like Lucy from the Beast Controlling Sect?

Hha…

Lucy truly doesn't know what it's like to be starving. If she knew, she would realize that thousand-year medicinal materials are rare treasures to White Mitchell right now.

These medicinal materials could significantly enhance the strength of the White War Department's soldiers if taken out.

Of course, Lucy can't be blamed for this. After all, she's pampered and precious. It's normal for her to look down on thousand-year-old medicinal materials.

It's not that she despises them, but the risk faced is not proportional to the potential rewards, which is why people of the Beast Controlling Sect would say so.

If it weren't for the Spiritual Beast with spiritual intelligence, Bald Dragon Island would have long become the territory of a great power like the Beast Controlling Sect.

After all, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. No one would complain about having too many resources.

“We must go to Bald Dragon Island. As for whether you go or not, it all depends on your decision.” White Mitchell said.

Lucy frowned, then gave a bitter smile. “Given my current situation, where else could I go? I can only follow you guys. Moreover, with me tagging along on your expedition to Bald Dragon Island, you'll have a better chance, right?”

White Mitchell nodded with a smile, Lucy was right.

With a genius like Lucy from the Beast Controlling Sect, this journey to Bald Dragon Island will indeed have more guarantees.

However, just as White Mitchell was making his decision, Lucy couldn't help but remind him: “Although we, the Beast Controlling Sect, disdain the treasures on Bald Dragon Island, I heard my senior brothers and sisters say there are many small powers that are eyeing them. I'm afraid that the people who were hunting you before will also go there this time. So, once we get to Bald Dragon Island, we will face not only the Spiritual Beast with spiritual intelligence but likely countless enemies.”

In response to Lucy's reminder, White Mitchell nodded.

He was mentally prepared for this.

If it were so easy to get the treasures from Bald Dragon Island, George wouldn't have planned for so many years.

But, the path in front of White Mitchell and the others isn't vast. The only way for them to get more treasures to bring back to the brothers in the White War Department is to risk everything.

With this in mind, White Mitchell stopped talking and let everyone rest briefly.

The next morning, White Mitchell led the God of Heaven War and the others and set off in the direction of Bald Dragon Island according to the notes left by George.

After a whole day of traveling, White Mitchell and his companions finally reached the vicinity of Bald Dragon Island.

Along the way, they encountered several ambushes by spiritual beasts. However, with Lucy, an expert in spiritual beasts, White Mitchell managed to handle these obstructing creatures without breaking a sweat.

Of course, part of the credit goes to the Red Fire Azure Bird.

Even though the Red Fire Azure Bird had lost its body, the mere trace of aura emanating from such a powerful spiritual beast was enough to make lesser ones tremble in fear.

But, whether or not the Red Fire Azure Bird could deter the powerful spiritual beast on Bald Dragon Island, White Mitchell wasn't sure.

In regard to this, White Mitchell had asked the Red Fire Azure Bird, but whenever this matter was brought up, the bird would play dumb and remain silent.

Even when White Mitchell resorted to threats and bribes, the Red Fire Azure Bird would only reply, “If you don't want to die, don't go.”

It was quite apparent that the Red Fire Azure Bird knew something about the condition of Bald Dragon Island.

But for some reason, it was unwilling to disclose this information to White Mitchell.

After repeated unsuccessful inquiries, White Mitchell stopped asking and devoted himself entirely to the upcoming trip to Bald Dragon Island.

When they arrived near Bald Dragon Island, a massive lake appeared before their eyes.

This lake was so extensive that they couldn't see its boundaries, almost like a vast ocean.

It was said that crossing this lake would lead one to the intermediate zone of Emperor Qing's Relics.

There were more treasures there, they were literally everywhere.

But also, the dangers there were significantly higher. Even forces like Heavenly Dragon City or Demon Wind City wouldn't dare enter.

Only transcendent powers and behemoths like the Beast Controlling Sect possess the strength to enter and search for treasures.

As for this, White Mitchell did not aim too high; his only wish was to set foot on Bald Dragon Island.

From afar, White Mitchell and his companions could see a small island standing in the middle of the lake.

Looking from a distance, the island was not substantial, stood alone in the center of the lake, appearing exceptionally abrupt.

The only way to reach Bald Dragon Island was by taking the Spirit Boat provided by the Treasure Pavilion.

Only by taking the Spirit Boat could they traverse across the lake.

Because the waters of this lake were not ordinary. Normal boats couldn't sail on it, and powerful spiritual beasts were lurking beneath the waters.

If one forcibly tried to cross, they were likely to perish in the lake.

Of course, some powerful individuals could walk across the air, cross the entire lake, and reach Bald Dragon Island.

But such beings were rare, and those who could reach this level probably wouldn't be interested in what Bald Dragon Island had to offer.

Therefore, the only way to get to Bald Dragon Island was by taking the Spirit Boat.

However, the cost to board the Spirit Boat was not insignificant.

For the four of them, White Mitchell and his companions, they each had to pay five top-grade Spirit Stones, which was a hefty expense for most people.

But to reach Bald Dragon Island, White Mitchell had no choice but to pay this fee.

Each Spirit Boat could accommodate fifty people, so naturally, more than White Mitchell's team was getting on board.

As soon as they got on the boat, White Mitchell smelled a strong, thick scent of blood.

Clearly, those who wanted to enter Bald Dragon Island were all people accustomed to life and death situations.

Not only that, the moment White Mitchell stepped on the boat, he found at least twenty pairs of eyes glaring at him as if sizing him up, as though he was a prey!

The law of the jungle is an unchanging principle.

White Mitchell wasn't bothered by this.

As long as they didn't target him, he naturally wouldn't go find trouble with them.

But if anyone dared to make him their target, he would not let them off easily!

Before long, White Mitchell, along with the God of Heaven War and others, arrived on the deck.

Several other Spirit Boats were also traveling with them.

Just as White Mitchell arrived on deck, he saw some familiar figures standing on another Spirit Boat.

Mr. Leon!?
