Regardless, the second he marked down Darkwind’s location, Gerald immediately led Lyndon over… However, when they arrived, not a soul was there!
Looking at the ground, Lyndon was prompted to say, “There appears to have been a big battle here…!”
“Indeed, and since I sensed that fluctuation of angelic power, Darkwind most probably lost. That aside, if his opponent wasn’t an Angelord, it was most probably someone who possessed an angelic artifact!” muttered Gerald who was already frowning.
Recalling how he had almost lost to Master Trilight—due to her angelic artifact—, Gerald then gave the bloodstains on the ground a long look before declaring, “…I’m positive it’s them!”
“Mr. Crawford! Look here! There’s a stone plaque with some writing on it!” exclaimed Lyndon out of the blue.
Upon hearing that, Gerald went over to have a look… and shortly after, he read out, “Purple Bamboo Forest, huh… The culprit must have abducted Darkwind to get us to head there!”
Though Lyndon agreed, he couldn’t help but add in a serious tone, “Still, it appears that our opponents this time aren’t that simple… Since they’ve most probably set up traps there, we need to be extra careful…”
“I know, but since Darkwind is with them, I still have to save him. They’ve already laid out their cards anyway, so let’s just head to the Purple Bamboo Forest for now,” replied Gerald, prompting the two to immediately return to the museum.
Once they got there, they asked around, and eventually, an old professor told them where the Purple Bamboo Forest was.
“Hah! That’s a good one! For as long as I’ve lived, this is the first time I’ve heard someone think that absorbing others’ masculine aura is the authentic cultivation method!” replied Darkwind as he shook his head, leaving the increasingly anxious Elain speechless.
True enough, her cultivation relied on absorbing the masculine aura of children… While Elain was aware that the technique was slightly immoral, her master wouldn’t deceive her of the details, right…?
Sensing Elain’s worry, Darkwind then smiled as he added, “You’ve been tricked, girl… If you don’t believe me, try looking for the children whom you absorbed masculine aura from! I don’t believe you’ll be able to find them anymore!”
“…What? But I can’t! Master told me that I wasn’t allowed to meet them till three years passed from the day I absorbed their masculine aura!”
