Arcadia Chronicles: The Story Of Lien Hua - Chapter 6
In a common dwelling in the Outer Sect of the Flowing Lotus Sect, three children were meeting.
The first person you could notice was a young girl of an average height of about 1.30 meters (4.3 feet) with very long electric blue hair enclosed in a high tail thanks to a small ornament that ended near her knees.
In 3 years of training, she had developed very well, although you could still see signs of her young age.
You could notice the second person was a young boy, the tallest of about 1.35 meters (4.4 feet) with long red hair but up to mid-back left wild. Even him after 3 years of hard training had changed a lot, with many more muscles but without exaggerating and even on him you could still see signs of youth, but it seemed thoughtful today.
The third but not less important, was also a young girl. Still, the lowest one of about 1.25 meters (4.1 feet) She also had very long ice-coloured hair enclosed in a tail adorned with several ornaments that gave her a noble aura in addition to the cold aura that she emanated from her whole body. In 3 years of training besides developing very well, it seemed that she had become even colder and more detached than before.
Lien Hua, looking at her two friends with whom she was most of her new life, could see that in three years of training together she had a talent for speed but had little strength, while Chen Huang had a talent for strength but had little stamina. Finally, Lin Yue was good at everything even though she was no master of anything.
The young girl could also see that their personalities and character had developed at best thanks to her. Even though Lin Yue had become colder, it was only a transparent veil; in fact, she was very open to everyone. Chen Huang instead had become very protective of the people he loved and was very kind.
After 3 years she had finally become completely accustomed to her new life, she could finally say that she had found a place that she could call home, thanks to all the friendships and people she had met.
Even though it was a completely different world with different cultures to which she wasn’t accustomed to living, she no longer felt like a stranger but finally felt like she belonged to it.
She also saw that her now-used attitude was much more open and benevolent to the people she knew.
Compared to 3 years ago, everyone had improved a lot, and Lien Hua was very grateful. Above all, she had become very confident even if she knew that she should not be too much because it was only the beginning of her journey.
Returning to the present, Lien Hua looked at her friends who were also watching her waiting for her to start talking:
”Well, guys, tomorrow is the big day where we will discover our martial spirit, i would finally say.”
Lin Yue was the second to speak:
”I just hope we’re not disappointed, but you all have to promise me that whatever happens, we’ll always be friends, you promise?”
Lien Hua and Chen Huang looked at each other seriously and said in unison:
”You already know, we promise.” Find authorized novels in Wuxiaworld, faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href=”https:///book/arcadia-chronicles-the-story-of-lien-hua_18823968806328605/results-and-the-dream_50746504628980471″>/book/arcadia-chronicles-the-story-of-lien-hua_18823968806328605/results-and-the-dream_50746504628980471</a> for visiting.
After they said this word, on Lin Yue’s face, a dazzling smile was displayed, it was so beautiful that it enchanted her two friends.
Lien Hua had to say that even though she was pretty, she was not at all close to Lin Yue’s levels, she could call her divine.
Lien Hua asked her friends to be sure:
”Before moving on to other topics, i wanted to ask if you all remember specifically what is a martial spirit?”
The two of them said that even though they pretty much knew what it was, they asked the group’s geek for a review.
Lien Hua hearing that familiar nickname didn’t pay much attention to it and began:
”Well, first of all, the martial spirit has been in our soul since we were born, it’s simply dormant. From how we know why we will see it soon, there is an awakening at 8 years of age. We awaken what it has been dormant.”
Taking a breath, Lien Hua resumed her speech by seeing that her two friends were very interested:
”At the age of 8, our body stops absorbing spiritual energy automatically. Therefore we are forced to awaken the martial spirit that will help us to reabsorb it. All martial spirits are different, but they have one thing in common: they are all living beings.”
Chen Huang asked when he saw that Lin Yue also wanted to ask the same thing:
”But do they have anything else special besides this?”
Lien Hua seeing that they were so interested was very happy and with a small smile answered:
”From what i’ve heard and they’ve explained to me, martial spirits take a lot of inspiration from our parents, but they can also be different, or mutated.”
Lin Yue, hearing the last sentence, asked with great perplexity:
”What does this mutation mean?”
Lien Hua understood that she had not used a straightforward sentence and then explained it:
”It is something that changes, so take, for example, your parents’ martial spirits are like fire and lightning, you could be born with both of them together. This is what mutation means.”
The two children finally understood and were very fascinated by the latter argument explained by their friend.
Chen Huang made a noise drawing the attention of the other two and said:
”Now I remembered! I wanted to ask, but where will this awakening take place?”
Lin Yue looked at him with a slightly incredulous eye and said:
”Are you serious about this? Did we saw you so perplexed today for this? Our custodians explained yesterday. It will be held in the temple of awakening, in the centre of the sect, how did you forget it?”
Chen Huang immediately put his hands in front as a sign of defence as Lien Hua began to laugh seeing their actions, they seemed just like the children of a dear old friend, and at that moment she understood that she could no longer live without them.
Lien Hua turning for a moment and looking out at the small window that she found behind her ignoring the two litigants’ voices who teased each other, saw that it was getting dark.
Turning and rising from the pillow on which she was sitting cross-legged drew the two litigants’ attention to herself.
”Well, guys, it’s becoming evening, we must separate before mine, and Chen Huang’s keeper don’t find us in our homes, and above all, we must take a good night’s rest to be as strong as possible for tomorrow.”
Looking at her with eyes full of determination, both her friends confidently said a word of agreement and greeted each other with a nice group hug that was very unusual in this world.
Of course, after a little effort, Lien Hua introduced it because she could not have physical contact with people being of modern Earth where you gave hands, hugs, and more without any problems.
Walking out of Lin Yue’s house with Chen Huang, they greeted each other outside and set out on their way.
After not even a few seconds of walking, she could already see her house with the lights still off noticing that Old Li had not yet arrived.
Entering the door of her house and sitting on the pillow near her desk now become table to eat, she did not wait more than 5 minutes that she already felt the door open.
Lien Hua turned and saw Li Wei with a bundle full of objects to see.
As soon as Old Li noticed his adopted granddaughter, he could only smile as she waited for his arrival.
After 3 years, their relationship was even stronger, making them almost inseparable; in fact, Li Wei as soon as he saw her he spoke first with a hot and loving voice:
”Seeing that it’s your 8-year-old’s eve and we can’t celebrate tomorrow, I’ve prepared a lot of things for you today, so let’s celebrate and hope that tomorrow you’ll come back stronger than before”.
After finishing dinner, they prepared to go to sleep. Li Wei hugged the child and gave her good night and good luck for the next day, as he could not accompany her.
During the night, Lien Hua had a dream.
She dreamed of a powerful storm, which had hit the entire area of Eltanin.
Lightning crushed the landscape and thunders wiped out the mountains, the winds were fierce, and no forest could resist, and the very high waves that formed from the seas ran down the coasts.
Rivers and lakes broke their banks, flooding everything, and powerful hurricanes formed, destroying everything as they passed by.
And in this apocalyptic marasmus, high up in the pitch-black coloured clouds, there was a monstrous being made of bolts of lightning that looked so condescending at what was happening on earth, just as an emperor looks at his subjects.
