Sealed Divine Throne

Making use of the sunlight that passed through the space between the trees, Long Haochen clearly saw one of the black-clad guy’s appearances and almost cried out in alarm because his face was, unexpectedly, totally covered with black hair. His yellow eyes looked especially ferocious, and his nose was ceaselessly twitching, as if he was trying to smell the odors.

It was also at that moment that an ice-cold voice resounded throughout the woods, “Don’t go any further! Since you chased her, don’t think of returning.”

Then, a sparkling light appeared silently in the sky, taking a graceful shape it rapidly twinkled a few times, like lightning in the middle of the woods. The seven or eight black-clad pursuers stiffened up and then fell to the ground the very next instant.

Long Haochen could only see the bushes before him when a white-clothed person with a covered face suddenly appeared in his field of vision. Before that white-clad man’s movements were even seen, from his chest, multiple specks of light flew out. In the next instant, it seemed as if the whole forest was shaken by those rays of light. Long Haochen was dazzled and wasn’t able to keep his eyes open.

When he could finally see the scenery before his eyes, he found, to his astonishment, that the black-clad men had all disappeared. Only the white-clad man, who was standing calmly on the ground, was left.

Everything happened too quickly. The only thing in front of Long Haochen now was the bushes. Everything else was turned into dust. It looked as though the ferocious looking people were never there to begin with!

The white-clad man slowly turned around, looked at the direction of Long Haochen and the mute girl, and calmly said, “Come out.”

Long Haochen felt tense. Obviously, he had been discovered. Just then he saw that white-clad man’s pair of eyes. Those eyes appeared emotionless, with black pupils that seemed grey. His long black hair grew from the back of his head, reaching his shoulders, and he was clad in a simple, white attire without any decorations.

The formidable white-clad man made Long Haochen’s heart tremble. After all, he was only nine years old; however, as he lowered his head and saw the messy and pale face of the little mute girl below him, his blood was surging within his body, turning into a surge of courage.

Calmly shaking his head towards the little girl, hinting to her to not make any noise, he supported himself with both of his hands’ strength, and jumped out from the bushes. At the same time, he took out his wooden sword from his back.

The white-clad man stood there without moving; but even like that, Long Haochen could instinctively feel that the man in front of him was stronger than any wild beast he had ever met, as well as far more dangerous.

Long Haochen calmly took hold of his wooden sword, and firmly looked at the white-clad person. He only hoped that the man didn’t discover the little mute girl.

“We should go back.” Even though the white-clad man’s voice was still emotionless, these simple words made Long Haochen sweat, drenching his body.

Also, at that moment, with a whiz sound, a lovely silhouette appeared in front of Long Haochen. He shockingly discovered that the one that moved at a speed that his eyes couldn’t even follow was the little mute girl that he was protecting a moment ago.

She is really fast! Long Haochen stared blankly at her.

The little mute girl stretched her arms out, using her thin and weak little body to block Long Haochen. Her firm gaze was stubbornly directed at the white-clad man before her, as she energetically shook her head.

It looked as though the expression in the emotionless eyes of the white-clad, long-haired, expressionless man changed. In the next instant, his body moved, twinkling like a graceful white light. Then, unexpectedly, and at an incomparably fast speed, the little mute girl in front of Long Haochen moved as well.

Long Haochen had much better observation skills than most people his age, but he could only see something that seemed to be a little knife in the small hands of the mute girl. Her body had made several irregular movements, like those of a fierce and tough little tiger. That speed was something only someone with a spiritual energy higher than 20 could possibly have.

Unfortunately, the disparity of power between the two of them was insurmountable and before one could take a single breath, everything was finished.

The mute little girl’s dagger couldn’t be seen anymore, and she was caught under the armpit of the white-clad person. The white-clad person had taken hold of her, though Long Haochen basically didn’t see what had happened.

“Free her!” Long Haochen shouted. Using a very standard posture for knights, the wooden sword in his hand faced the white-clad man. At that time, he had completely forgotten the intimidating nature of the person before him. He only thought about saving the little mute girl.

Going all out, Long Haochen held his wooden sword, preparing to attack, but his consciousness suddenly sank into darkness, as the white-clad man lifted an arm.

Under his armpit, the small mute girl struggled violently. The white-clad man was surprised by that sudden action, because he felt that under his armpit, the whole body of the little girl started to send out a scorching heat, and a layer of dark red radiance was also coming from her skin.

“Calm down, I will not injure him.” The white-clad man’s voice finally sounded like a human’s, though he looked helpless.

The little mute girl stopped struggling, and raised her head to look at the white-clad man.

The white-clad man nodded, looking at her, then took a step forward, before arriving directly in front of Long Haochen. He picked up Haochen’s body using a single hand, and held his gaze.

After a short while, the white-clad man slowly wrinkled his eyebrows, “His innate qualities belong to the upper class, but his bones’ growth is insufficient. His temperament and innate qualities make him suitable to becoming an outstanding knight.”

As he said that, he loosened his hold on the mute little girl.

She quickly made several hand gestures.

The white-clad man said, “His future prospects? It is hard to say. Looking only at his natural qualities, he can become an outstanding knight. He’s only eight or nine years old, but already possesses some qualities of a knight: compassion, courage, perseverance, and sacrifice. His possibilities are limitless, he will become an outstanding knight who will protect the people around him and this mindset will be even more important than his natural talent.”

The little girl pointed at her own body, then pointed at Long Haochen’s, making several hand gestures.

The white-clad man nodded and said, “Alright, the courage he just showed does deserve a reward.”

A group of white lights surged out from the white-clad man’s chest, forming a shape similar to a small white stove, a stove from which thin blue flames shone.

A moment later, the blue and white light disappeared, merging with the white-clad’s man’s body. He was clearly exhausted.

“Alright, I just used the Spiritual Stove of Power to help him sort out his twelve standard channels, it will allow him to develop his potential to a good extent. Now that your trial is finished, let’s head back.”

After he spoke those words, the white-clad man calmly stood up, and waved to the little mute girl.

However, against all expectations, the little mute girl ran towards Long Haochen, took off a blue ring with a golden band from one of her fingers, and she put it on Long Haochen’s middle finger on his left hand. Strangely, when that ring was placed on Long Haochen’s finger, it enlarged itself by a bit and, in the end, fully fit itself around his finger.

“Cai’er, you…” The white-clad man cried out in a small voice. The next thing he saw was the inflexible stubborn gaze of the mute little girl. She also reorganized the wild herbs beside him before heading back to the white-clad man’s side.

The white-clad man, who had stayed completely silent for a long time, wrinkled his brow, nodded slowly, then pulled the mute little girl’s hand and disappeared with her into the depths of the forest.
