The Enemy

Zhang Yong's question made Li Ming recall the memories that she obtained during her challenge against Tiao Chen.

"She was banished from the Valkyrie court. Her wings were destroyed and she was sent to the Forbidden lands. But I have no idea why she was banished in the first place."

Li Ming told him what little she knew and it was clear that she was just as confused about Valkyrie's past as Zhang Yong was.

A sigh escaped her lips as she once again turned her focus towards the thick old book that was resting on the table.

She let the lights of the library dim before she moved her fingers over the carvings on the book cover.

The Shadow Lord was observing her very carefully, making sure that she was alright. He was ready to aid her if or when she needed him to.

Li Ming let her mind calm down before she focused it on the carvings, letting the magic of the book connect with her own as her mind tried to find the right spell to unseal the book.
