Novel Full Chapter 244 Invisible Village
It took a few minutes for Maria to calm Lily down, but that didn’t make the situation much better. She was still fearful of Mira and now that Maria was back, she wanted nothing more than to go back home.
“Hey, kid. Are we able to check out this village of yours? It sounds interesting.”
Lily was startled when she heard Mira’s question and immediately sobered up.
“NO! No! No, you can’t. Like I said before, my village is isolated from the outside world. Meaning, that outsiders are not allowed inside and even if you were, then you’d either be killed, forced to stay, or imprisoned. The people inside the village… just want to live a peaceful life, away from all the killing, betrayal, and wars.”
Lily hid how one can enter and exit the village because that’s her only way to get back home. If Mira takes it, then she’ll be left outside with this masochistic psychopath (Maria)! What she didn’t know is that Mira’s not an idiot and knows that Lily probably has the key to enter, but she couldn’t care less about that after hearing what she said.
Clearly, this village is just a place full of hypocritic pussies! Mira would feel much more interested in this village if they sent their youngsters out of the village to train or maybe they are preventing some ‘disaster’ or something from spreading into the outside world. But Mira has no interest in visiting cowards.
“Tch. Whatever. You can go back now, kid. We have shit to do so we’ll be on our way.”
“Language, Mira!! She’s just a child!”
“…”
Although Lily was a bit frustrated with how the two of them were treating her, she could only bite her lip in frustration. Even though she’s only talked with these two for a short amount of time, it doesn’t take a genius to know that they definitely wouldn’t listen to her.
Mira didn’t say anything else and started walking in the direction they were originally headed before she jumped off of Elenei. Celaine, who hasn’t said anything, quietly followed after Mira. She also saw no point in going to this village if they are just a bunch of cowards. It’s impossible for them to know if they are missing out on something good, but even if they did have enough resources to last them thousands of years without any need for outside help, those resources most probably wouldn’t have much effect on them.
Plus, there could be Nascent Soul Realm experts in there. This isn’t Lunar Fox City, after all. They are getting closer and closer to the Main Sect on the Western Continent. Not only is the Qi denser and more abundant, but even the common resources have elevated a notch.
Maria pouted a bit when she saw Mira walking away, but there wasn’t much she could do. At this point, Mira definitely wouldn’t let her try and convince Lily to let them enter the village. So she stopped hugging Lily and started running after Mira so she was not left behind. While she was running, she waved goodbye to Lily.
“See you later, Villager A! If you want to see my beautiful face again, come to the Battle Maiden Sect, east of here!”
“Damn it! My name isn’t ‘kid’ or ‘Villager A’! My name is Lily! And who wants to see your ugly face again!?”
“Hehehe~”
The only thing Lily heard after that was Maria’s giggles…

After the three of them got far enough away from Lily and made sure there weren’t any witnesses around, Elenei came out and they hopped on her back to get back to their journey.

A few hours later, the trio was riding on Elenei’s back but instead of sitting around doing nothing, all three of them were looking down as if they were watching something.
That’s exactly what they were doing. Down on the ground, there was a silhouette of a person running in a certain direction. They’ve been following this person for the last couple of hours and yes, this person was Lily.
A few hours ago, when they all hopped on Elenei’s back, Mira informed them that she wanted to know where this village was. Both Celaine and Maria were wondering why Mira was so intent on knowing, but she just said that it’s good to know where invisible villages were… Just in case.
The two of them, and even Elenei, didn’t understand what she meant by that, but they weren’t against the idea. They also felt like it was a good idea to know where something like this was. Doing this also won’t take too much time off their journey and the only reason they haven’t found the village yet is because of how slow Lily is.
But after a few hours, she finally slowed down and after looking around for a few minutes, the girl up and disappeared! Vanished into thin air!
“Woah! So she wasn’t lying about her village being isolated from the outside world. However, it’s hard to say whether they’re really isolated or just hidden by a massive array.”
Maria jumped in surprise.
Mira didn’t say anything, but for some reason, she felt an urge to have Elenei shoot massive fireballs into that empty space Lily disappeared into. Part of the reason for this is it would be fucking amazing to bombard a city from the sky and even more importantly… The place is invisible! Bombing the place would definitely make it visible again or at least give her a rough outline of the village.
Maria and Celaine both felt chills down their spines and looked over to see Mira staring at the place where Lily disappeared with wolf-like eyes!
“NO! Mira, stop thinking about whatever it is you’re thinking about! We can’t destroy this village; a village full of people who only want peace! I know it may seem satisfying to bomb a village, especially an invisible one, from the sky, but we can’t do that!”
Celaine started nodding her head vigorously, but then she felt like something was off with how Maria phrased it. However, she started thinking about that scenario and realized that it would be really interesting if Elenei just started blowing the place all to hell!
Who can resist such a temptation of having Elenei drop bombs from the sky as they flew by.
“Fuck! No! We need to get out of here! If we stay too long, Elenei will definitely start dropping bombs on this village! I’m sure they’re all good people and Lily was super cute even if she was a little stupid.”
“Ah! Yes! Villager A! How can I forget? Yes, we can’t bomb the city because she’s in it! Alright Elenei, let’s leave this place.”
Celaine and Maria convinced themselves to not do anything, but what they didn’t know was that Elenei wasn’t going to do something stupid like that even if all three of them begged her to.
The fuck? Why would she risk exposing herself so these idiots can enjoy watching a bit of large-scale destruction? Not a chance!
Elenei didn’t say anything to them and turned around and left. However, not long after she left, her head turned to the side as she sensed something interesting…
“Hey guys, there’s actually something interesting not far away from that village. I don’t know if it’ll help you guys out in your breakthrough, but it’s definitely worth checking out.”
Elenei decided to drop a bomb on the trio instead!
[A/N: Hehe, did you like that? It’s cheesy I know, but I don’t care!]
