Chapitre 34: Chapter 12: Enemy from the Dark (Part 1)_1

Two chapters first, more votes and collections please. Little Three thanks everyone. I know it's getting late today, and I did drink a bit too much last night. The reason is that my big brother, the ultimate Cavalryman (lifetime career creator. Everyone knows what lifetime means, right? It's an absolutely good book, go read it when you have time) came to my place. And well, when brothers are together and in high spirits, it's hard not to have a couple more glasses. I'm really sorry about that. Seems like it's the first time I've mentioned drinking in my books. Hehe.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Sky Scar shrugged his shoulders, "Why not? In today's society, all kinds of security work is completed by technology. If you can still steal things under these conditions, it proves that you have abilities that ordinary people can't compare with. I like capable people. We can complement each other. What's the benefit for you to always muddle along in City of Zhongting? You can only be a thief. I think you must also have a vision of the life you want in your heart. Why not gamble for it? Although you are not ugly, I wouldn't degrade you to the extent of selling you into male prostitution. Now you can choose. You're right, nobody should have the power to control somebody else's freedom. I was restricted my freedom once and I have experienced the pain deeply, so I will not limit you with my stronger power. Now, you can make your own choice. If you still want to leave, I won't stop you again."

Feng Yuan snorted, didn't hesitate at all and turned to leave.

Watching his gradually receding figure, Sky Scar helplessly shook his head and thought to himself that he seemed to have chosen the wrong person this time. Since their philosophies were different, it probably wouldn't do any good to force him to stay by his side after all. He let it go and when he was about to fly away using his flying skill, he saw the figure that was going far away magnify again.

Yes, Feng Yuan came back, looking frustrated as he walked back.

Sky Scar smiled gently, "What's up? Have you decided to go with me?"

Feng Yuan looked at Sky Scar, raised his right hand, and used his thumb to point behind him, "If you can help me out with this trouble, I will go with you."

Noticing for the first time, Sky Scar saw more than a dozen people rushing out from the corner hundreds of meters behind Feng Yuan. Judging from their attire, it was easy to tell that they weren't nice people. However, they weren't holding anything prohibited, just some practical melee weapons: machetes and sticks.

"It appears that it has not been easy for you to survive here, after all, you have so many enemies," Sky Scar chuckled, and his figure flashed as he positioned himself between Feng Yuan and the goons. Those thugs were about a hundred meters away from them. "Your wind talent is at most a first level. Watch carefully, our supernatural abilities are our most important assets, they can compete with any piece of tech gear".

Under Feng Yuan's watchful gaze, Sky Scar rushed out, and Feng Yuan clearly saw that the air around Sky Scar, at a distance of about one foot, was completely twisting and vibrating. With Sky Scar's speed, he would soon come into contact with the group. The first to confront him were two machetes and a stick. A strange thing happened, the distorted air vibrated even more intensely, and the weapons attacking Sky Scar were all deflected. Sky Scar's right kick was as sharp and strong as a whip striking one of the goons in the chest.

With him not even using Cosmic Energy, the explosive power contained in Sky Scar's body was more than these thugs could handle. The man he kicked flew back like a rag doll, landing five meters away and rolling on the ground clutching his chest. He wouldn't be getting up anytime soon.

Sky Scar's actions were consistent with his speed. In the short time while the thug he kicked was flying and then landing, he swiftly kicked twice more, and had six attacks with his hands and elbows. There was no doubt about the outcome, half of the group of thugs were already down, with the velocity being utterly disproportionate.

Sky Scar's body suddenly drifted backward, his hands stretched forward. Two of the goons who were knocked down earlier were lifted up by him using his space-related supernatural ability, blocking the path of the other thugs, "I don't think I need to continue. Feng Yuan is my brother, no matter how he has offended you guys, I will handle it from now on. If you are smart, get your injured buddies and leave immediately. Otherwise, just lie down here together."

The thugs were always fearful and timid. They did not see clearly how their companions were knocked down by Sky Scar just now. Seeing the two levitating companions in front of them unable to struggle free, they immediately lost their purpose. But also no one dared to launch an attack on Sky Scar. Sky Scar casually tossed them back, turned and walked back to Feng Yuan, patted his shoulder, and said, "Get moving, let's go."

Feng Yuan lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought. He just responded and followed Sky Scar. The thugs could only watch them walk away, without any courage to follow. Just the cold gleam in Sky Scar's eyes was enough to dampen their spirits.

As they walked, Sky Scar asked, "Feng Yuan, what are you thinking about?"

Feng Yuan said, "I never thought that such an ability could be so powerful, Sky Scar. I will stay with you from now on, but you have to teach me how to strengthen that ability."

Sky Scar laughed, "So, after becoming stronger, you won't worry about being caught while stealing anymore?"

Feng Yuan's face turned red, "Don't make me sound so sleazy. If I was powerful enough, who'd want to steal? Even though I am skilled in thievery. In reality, those people had no idea that it was me who stole their stuff, but, since I seem to be the only thief in Zhongting City, they blamed me. It's so unfair!"

Sky Scar's eyes lit up, "You mean to say your thieving skills are extremely sharp?"

"Of course. There might not be many in the Cosmic Alliance who can match me!" Speaking up to this point, his spirit suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, saying, "But now, many valuables are stored using technological means, so I can't steal anything valuable. Otherwise, I would have fled far away. Your Spatial Special Ability is really strong, when will I reach your level of proficiency?"

Sky Scar chuckled bitterly, "In reality, I'm not strong at all. From your demeanor, it seems you've known about the existence of wind talents for some time. First, let's talk about your situation, so I can try and help you as much as possible."

Feng Yuan explained, "Indeed, I felt the Wind Talent around the age of thirteen or fourteen. At the beginning, I just felt very close to the wind. Even powerful wind had no threat to me and there was always this peculiar sensation in my heart, although it was something invisible and untouchable. Only in the past two years, I've managed to control it a little—although its force is so weak that it can't protect me at all." As he said this, he concentrated his spirit, waved his right hand lightly, and a tiny whirlwind appeared in his palm. Despite its faint power, it could still affect the flow of air.

Sky Scar said, "Progress of special abilities requires training. The time I spent in practice is not long yet, but I've felt that only by facing different challenges will the special ability advance rapidly. Feng Yuan, have you ever tried to cultivate Cosmic Energy?"

Feng Yuan was taken aback, "What's the point of that thing? Are you saying that what you just used was Cosmic Energy?"

Sky Scar said, "It is indeed useful. Moreover, it's extremely crucial. If you want to become stronger, to better utilize your Wind Talent, you must first master Cosmic Energy."

Feng Yuan sighed lightly, "You know as well as I do, ordinary people can't get access to the cultivation techniques of Cosmic Energy. That is something only elite schools and influential individuals can learn. What's the point if I wanted to learn?"

Sky Scar made a disdainful gesture to Feng Yuan, "I thought you were intelligent— it turns out you're not. Even though you don't have power or influence, you have me as a friend. Consider the first stage of Cosmic Energy cultivation techniques as my gift to you."

Feng Yuan paused for a moment, looked at Sky Scar and said, "You trust me just like that? I'm an unpleasant petty thief."

Sky Scar glanced at him impatiently, "Why the fuss? Didn't I say that I don't care about your status? I myself came from the slums. So what? Let's go to the transport station, and on the way, I'll tell you about us, the supernatural beings. Since I consider you a friend, I will naturally help you."

Sky Scar wanted to make use of Feng Yuan, but Feng Yuan also wanted to make use of him. However, when Feng Yuan listened to Sky Scar's words, he felt a strange sensation in his heart. He is an orphan. He had been adopted as a child, but the couple who took him in died, leaving him nothing. From the age of seven, he began to roam in society until now. Except for his foster parents during his childhood, hardly anyone treated him with sincerity. However, he could sense the sincerity in Sky Scar's words—even the teasing parts held sincerity. It was this sincerity that gradually opened up Feng Yuan's heart.
