Ryo looked at the back of the young scholar and the others boys and sighed "Look like I'll have to go, otherwise they might end doing something horrible, since it happened in front of me so I won't ignore it."
When Ryo stood up, his knife levitate itself in his back like a guardian, previously Ryo demonstrated a blue flame elemental power and now his knife is floating on his back, he probably has two powers!
One of the young men behind the young scholar looked back and see Ryo calmly walking toward the same direction of them so he said to the young scholar "Senior, that man is behind us"
The young scholar just smiled and replied "I know, don't worry, he's not the type of people who steal things, he likes to find his own treasures."
"Why he's following us then?" the same young man asked.
"He don't like people bullying too much others, so if possible he will try help the weaker" The young scholar replied ambiguous.
Other young man realized something and quietly said "So the senior wants a reason to finish him or something?"
"You have a bright mind but it's wrong, even we are not his opponents." The young scholar answered.
The three young men are amazed but soon they denied it, even the Senior might not be their opponent, and for them their Senior is one the strongest supporters in the school, if the four together can't win that guy this is too scary.
The young scholar saw through their thoughts but didn't continued in this, everybody with power have a little pride, principally students, so he continued saying "He's not Robbin Wood, the only thing he will protect is their life, so don't kill anyone and he will not care if we get the treasure."
"So why we attracted him in the first place?" these young men don't get it yet.
"Who guarantee we'll win then?Just because we have more people?If they are stronger than we are and want kill us that guy behind will protect us so it's like having a bodyguard, it's a little shameful but risking your life without a way out is my last option" cunningly spoke the young scholar.
These young men are stunned but thinking about it, without knowledge of the opponents blindly rushing is inviting death to yourself.
While they are talking, Bai, Lucas and Yufei got close to the destination, Bai looked around and found the secret signal that himself made before leaving yesterday, happily going towards that but someone hold his shoulder.
"What, do you want turn your face?" Bai said irritated to Yufei who is holding his shoulder.
"You didn't even check the area, someday you'll have a loss with this lack of attention." answered Yufei while putting on a tech glasses and scanning approximately 100 meters in circumference.
Bai looks angry but don't denied the statement, Lucas could just pat his shoulder and said nothing.
Yufei didn't found any heat source so he retired the tech glasses and proceeded to the signal, after he attacked the signal the rocks fall of in the ground and a cave is in view.
"Don't need the show to do this, the rocks have been adjusted to fall off" Bai snorted seeing the cave show up.
"Hey Bai, you had spoken that the treasure is in a valley, what's this cave?" Lucas asked with doubt in his memory.
"Don't worry, this cave is short and has a little valley in the other side, it's the only way, unless you fly over this hill." Bai guaranteed so they entered one after another.
Meanwhile the young scholar smiled seeing Yufei carefulness 'If my supporter power has heat source we would be discovered now and the treasure will be gone, sometimes this power surprises me, there must be several others more complex powers and persons in the world.'
"Why do you stopped Senior?" one of the young men with big physical asked and the others looked at Senior too.
"They are opening the entry, soon will be time to harvest" said the young scholar.
"Let's hurry then" one of the young men with thin cheeks said excited.
"Yes, we are more than 300 meters of distance now, if we accelerate we'll arrive there in the best time to take the treasure." replied the young scholar a little excited too.
They accelerate and passed through the cave and they see 3 young men looking at a fist sized stone on a wall in the little valley, two of then are normal but one of them has his mouth opened looking at stone.
This picture captured the interest of the young scholar and the young men behind him so everyone looked at stone, the stone is a little translucent with rough edges but the most important is the turbid white glow in the middle of it, everyone automatically connected with the cause of the Eternal Day, that white glow is incomparable more pure and brighter and bigger than this stone glow, but this is sufficient to remember and resemble with that.
The valley is small so when people entered Lucas group noted and so the young scholar noted too but they are absorbed in the beauty of the stone so a weird picture happened, 3 guys looking to 4 guys who have the mouth open looking at a stone.
The young scholar recuperate rapidly and cleared his throat to the idiots realize the situation, right after they recuperate and with red face looked fiercely at Lucas group.
"ha..haha...hahaha" the only sound in the valley is the suppressed laugh of Bai and the faces of the young men turned more red, even the young scholar gritted his teeth and looked at Bai, faced with everyone Bai laugh decreased until disappear and the valley restored his previous silence, until footsteps are heard so everyone looked at the cave, that's the only way to this valley and a proud young man with a knife floating on his back appears and it's Roy.
Bai and Yufei got serious, they aren't scared by being outnumbered, only the scholar gave them a feeling of danger, the rest is just bothersome but with time everything is alright, but if this guy with the sword join the scholar they can just try to escape.
Roy looked at the impasse and at the stone and are surprised, he encountered a rock like this yesterday and that's why his power increased so much, but the energy of the stone still in his body and don't get absorbed anymore so he won't get greedy and get this stone too, so he just said "I don't want that, and I'm not from the team of Li Zexu."
Even the young scholar, Li Zexu, is surprised after hearing Roy, he knows Roy don't like take others people's things but this rough stone is obviously something that will enhance the powers and even evolve then, to reject this for morality even Li Zexu is convinced of the heart of Roy, and such people with strong will no matter if is rightful or not probably will be successful.
If Roy knows what Li Zexu and the others are thinking about himself he'll laugh the whole day, who would thought he's already take another one of those stones and even absorbed that already.
Bai and Yufei gave a sigh of relief, they know each other strength so they believe they could win even with half of the other side, but when they gave this sigh of relief a thing like a mosquito went out of Bai's body and stung him and disappeared, at the same time Li Zexu face paled and his foot almost slipped but he's smiling.
"This is what happens when you turn down your guard, how do you think I observed you guys of distance if the top powers so far is just tens of meters?That's when I 'accidentally' touched you in the morning, my power doesn't cost anything to just live in a outside organism." He said while the 3 young men went to attack.
Two young men went to attack Yufei and the young man with big physical went to Lucas, they don't know information about the enemies so they want to get this over soon.
Bai went to protect Lucas but on the way he fell without resistance, Lucas panicked a little because he never have a fight and he came with the mentality of just seeing the treasure with Bai, it's just 10 miles out the city, what could be wrong?But now is not time to think about this, all he could do is trying his power and clumsy punching in the direction of the guy with big physical.
Lucas didn't feel the feeling of yesterday or in the dream and the clumsy punch is just a normal clumsy punch, the big guy sensed the clumsy movements of Lucas and dived in the direction of the punch and before Lucas have a chance to retrieve his hands to defend he received a big punch in the stomach and cracked his ribs while his body flew in the air for 3 meters and the sound of his body smashing in the ground made everyone stop fighting.
