The Genius Mage

Audrey knew that at this point, she had to give a reasonable reason. Otherwise, Klein and Kate would not believe her. This was because flying was too rare for cultivators, and very few people could do it.

“I met a master earlier, and he taught me some secrets. However, I can’t find him now.” Audrey came up with a reason that could be explained. When she spoke, there was not a hint of guilt in her voice.

“Really? That’s such a pity,” Kate said somewhat dejectedly.

“So you learned how to fly very early?” Klein continued to ask.

Audrey thought for a moment and said, “Actually, it’s not that. I haven’t been able to master it before. It was only after I fell off the cliff that I suddenly learned it.”

“I see. Then, it must have been a dangerous moment. It must have suddenly erupted,” Kate said with a smile. There was a hint of envy in his voice.

“Probably. So I can try to see if I can bring you down with me,” Audrey nodded and said deliberately.

“This… if you suddenly can’t fly, won’t we fall?” Klein suddenly became worried and said half-jokingly.

“Pfft! Don’t say such unlucky words,” Kate rolled his eyes at Klein and said snappily.

Audrey pursed her lips as she watched the two of them joking. She was afraid that the two of them would suspect her, so she deliberately acted as if she was not very confident.

But no matter what, they would not fall.

“Alright, let’s go and try.” Audrey interrupted their argument and walked to the edge of the cliff together. Even though a ball of fire illuminated them, it was still pitch-black when they looked down from above. They could not see the bottom of the cliff at all.

“It’s too high. We can’t even see the bottom. It’s too scary.” Klein frowned and said worriedly.

Kate’s expression was a little unnatural.

Audrey was the only one with a calm expression. “Don’t worry. We won’t fall.”

She said confidently, her azure eyes emitting a confident light. Instantly, Klein and Kate felt much more at ease. As long as Audrey was here, everything would go smoothly.

The three of them stood side by side, firmly holding onto the two of them. Then, Audrey began to chant silently, “Great Goddess of ice and snow, please allow me to borrow your divine power and fly freely.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a gust of wind formed beneath Audrey’s feet. It was like an invisible blanket, supporting the three of them.

Audrey curled the corners of her lips in satisfaction. This familiar feeling had returned. It was wonderful.

She brought the two of them and leaped down.

As Kate and Klein had never experienced the feeling of flying before, they immediately cried out in fear and excitement, echoing throughout the valley.

Audrey could not help but frown, but at the same time, she found it a little funny.

Although it had been a long time since she had flown, Audrey had grasped this ability very well. The flight was very stable. She did not know how long she had flown, but she felt the wind pass by her ears. Her surroundings were pitch-black as if she had fallen into endless darkness.

After a long while, the three of them finally landed slowly. Audrey immediately lit up her surroundings with a ball of fire. Only then did she see clearly where they were. It was a valley with a small stream beside it. The water was not deep, but it was apparent.

“We’ve finally landed. Audrey, you’ve impressed me,” Kate said excitedly.

“Yeah, you’re amazing.” Klein gave her a thumbs up, praising Audrey.

“You flatter me,” Audrey replied. Then, she began to observe her surroundings. The valley was very long, and she felt that the powerful energy was getting stronger.

It must be here! Audrey was very sure.

“Let’s look around. The energy ball must be here,” Audrey said wisely.

“Wait a moment. I’ll wash my face first.” Klein chuckled and walked to the stream. Ever since they came to the isolated island, they had not washed properly. They had long felt that their bodies were very heavy.

Audrey was slightly taken aback. Only then did she remember that she went to the hot spring every day, but they had nowhere to wash.

She nodded and began to observe the place by herself.

“Audrey, aren’t you going to wash up together? Don’t girls like to be clean the most?” So Klein spoke at that moment.

His words left Audrey momentarily at a loss for words.

She did not need to wash up. The water in the stream was much worse than the hot spring water, but it would not make sense if she refused.

In the end, Audrey went over to wash her hands.

“We can’t stay here for long. So let’s hurry up and find the energy ball and leave,” she said deliberately, but she did not sense any danger here.

Kate and Klein naturally believed Audrey’s words and quickly left with her.

The three of them walked forward for a while and saw a cave. It was faintly emitting a purple light.

It was indeed an energy ball!

“Look, it’s over there,” Kate shouted happily.

Audrey was also amazed, but she still maintained her calm. There were usually guardian divine beasts around the energy ball, but why did she not sense any dangerous aura here? Could it be that this divine beast was hiding its aura?

That would make them even more dangerous.

“Be careful. I didn’t sense any divine beast aura here. It’s very likely that it’s hidden,” Audrey said cautiously. The three of them carefully approached the cave together.

Audrey frowned even more. They had already entered, but the Guardian Beast was still not coming out?

Or could it be that there was no Guardian Beast here?

“I don’t sense any dangerous aura either. There must be a Guardian Beast here, right?” Klein made a bold guess.
