He slightly raised his brows and flicked his sleeve. The violent thunder spiritual energy remaining at the bottom of the crater flowed into his palm like hundreds of rivers converging into the sea, turning into a docile cluster of thunder-light.
Then, his gaze turned toward Lu Fengmian.
At that instant, Lu Fengmian felt as though he had been scanned from head to toe, with not even the gaps between his bones spared.
“Strange...” A trace of surprise and suspicion flashed through the man’s eyes. “The aura of that tribulation lightning just now was clearly an opportunity bestowed by the Heavenly Dao. Although it was only a faint sign of true intent, it could never have been triggered without great Heavenly Dao fortune and great karma. But this child...”
He walked in front of Lu Fengmian, his tone gentle yet carrying an inborn dignity: “Little friend, do you know what happened here just now?”
Under that gaze, Lu Fengmian’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly replied, “Replying to Senior, this junior only saw a terrifying heavenly lightning strike down, and I was nearly caught up in it.”
That person stretched out his hand and pressed against the air, and a force lifted Lu Fengmian up. At the same time, a pure stream of spiritual energy probed into his meridians.
