Ch 34: Lion Falls (1)

"Do you know about Lion Falls?"

Emrys suddenly thought of the words told by the lady with mask number 13 and asked.

"Lion Falls?" Rohan was confused. On the other hand, Cairo's eyes glowed. He hurriedly held Emrys's hand and asked, "Why are you asking about the Lion Falls? Could it be that you know where it is located?"

Emrys and Rohan were stunned at first before they suddenly understood something. They exchanged glances and then said together, "So, you are aware of the Lion Falls?"

"Of course, I am!"

Cairo nodded right away, he was full of surprise and excitement.

"Tell us about it. What is so special about the Lion Falls?" Emrys asked.

Cairo smiled and replied, "The branch of Federation in the Crystal City has records about the Lion Falls. I, as an Intel Scout, was granted permission to look at the information kept on the First Floor of the Library in the Federation. I obtained the information about the Lion Falls there."

Stopping for a few seconds, Cairo took a deep breath and explained, "It is said that the Lion Falls used to be a treasured land control by Mysterious Sky Mansion, a powerful force that is standing above the Great Flame Kingdom. About a hundred years ago, the genius of the Grimscar Family, Darius Grimscar, entered the Mysterious Sky Mansion and won the right to own the Lion Falls in a competition."

"Lion Falls is not as simple as a Treasured Land, it was actually a treasure said to be created by a powerful Soul Sculptor. The Lion Falls can be moved and placed anywhere."

"The Grimscar Family began to thrive after obtaining the treasure, Lion Falls. They positioned the Lion Falls within their garden. Little did they anticipate that the Darkborne Family, a family of hidden villains, would set their sights on Lion Falls. Ignoring any potential retaliation or revenge from the Mysterious Sky Mansion, the Darkborne Family brazenly attacked the Grimscar Family and stole Lion Falls, snatching it away from them."

Emrys's eyes lit up as if he wanted to know more. Rohan was feeling exactly the same.

Cairo did not disappoint them. He continued to explain, "It is said that the flow of the Lion Falls has a strange rhythm. By allowing the water of the Lion Falls to wash your body, you will be able to use the power of the Lion Falls to enter the state of comprehension. Not only can you comprehend difficult skills and techniques easily, but you can also strengthen your Soul River and Soul Force, increasing your cultivation easily. The further you go, the more benefit you'll obtain. However, the Lion Falls is not without restriction. Only people below Secret Silver Soul Masters can enter the Lion Falls and obtain benefits."

Emrys was surprised. He did not expect Lion Falls to have such a mysterious capability. Then he suddenly thought of Laura's words. Before she left, she looked stunned and muttered that the Lion Falls had appeared once again.

What does she mean exactly?

Moreover, what is a Soul Sculptor?

Even as a genius student with the highest marks in theory, Emrys had never heard of Soul Sculptors.

Cairo's explanations have not ended yet. He continued, "Although the Lion Falls is mysterious, it only appears once every three years at the place it is positioned. It only appears for half a month each time. Emrys, tell me truthfully. Why did you ask about Lion Falls? Could it be because of this strange trembling of the earth and rumbling of the sky?"

Rohan glanced at Emrys as well. If this phenomenon is truly related to the appearance of Lion Falls, even if they have to take the greatest risk of their lives, they have to go and enter the Lion Falls.

Emrys nodded slightly, saying, "Indeed. This phenomenon is related to the appearance of Lion Falls. As far as I can think, I guess it is located somewhere in those mountains!"

Emrys pointed at the mountain range that could no longer be seen by the naked eye. Rohan and Cairo had long noticed this situation and were curious. Knowing that Emrys would not lie to them without any reason, they trusted Emrys.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Rohan excitedly spoke and took the first step forward.

"Stop!"

Emrys and Cairo immediately stopped him.

Rohan's steps froze. He looked at the two friends with a confused expression, not understanding why they were behaving like this.

Cairo took a deep breath and said, "Have you forgotten what I said just now? The Lion Falls was robbed by the Darkborne Family. Darkborne Family is also known as the family of hidden villains. If the Lion Falls has truly appeared here, it also indicates that whatever is happening inside this abandoned mansion, if not the doing of the Darkborne Family then it is definitely closely related to them. Whatever we do here, we have to stay alert all the time."

Rohan realized his mistake and was embarrassed a little.

Emrys thought of Laura and said, "With the appearance of Lion Falls, it's probable that members of the Darkborne Family will also be present. Furthermore, considering that Lion Falls permits individuals below Secret Silver Soul Masters to enter, there will likely be numerous Silver Soul Masters seeking benefits there. Whether we decide to go or not, we must carefully weigh our options."

Rohan and Cairo nodded their heads. They understood the heavy weight of their decision. They must think of a solution if they truly want to enter the Lion Falls.

"Then what should we do?" Rohan asked.

Cairo shook his head, not knowing what to do. This matter is very serious as well as important. They are definitely no match for Silver Soul Masters. If they dared to carelessly enter the Lion Falls, they might be discovered by the Silver Soul Masters of the Darkborne Family. At that time, no one can save them.

"I think I have a solution!"

Emrys thought of something and a smile finally appeared on his face. However, this smile was not a gentle smile, this smile showed the seriousness of the issue.

"What solution?"

Rohan and Cairo's eyes lit up. They darted an exciting look at Emrys, waiting for him to explain.

Emrys said, "I think the person I fought here was from the Darkborne Family. She was wearing a mask with the number 13 painted on it. If we can obtain masks like that somehow, we can enter the Lion Falls while avoiding the danger of being recognized as outsiders."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Indeed, if what Emrys said is true, then all they have to do is to find masks with corresponding numbers and they can enter the Lion Falls without much worry.

"Then let's go and find people to rob them of their masks. I think we can find people from the Darkbonre Family if we get closer to the Lion Falls. Let's stay careful as we proceed."

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and then they headed towards the direction of the Mountain Range.
