The Genius Mage

The Snow Lotus was snow-white in color. Its petals overlapped each other and surrounded the stamen. The stamen was bright yellow, and there were green leaves supporting it.

“It’s very beautiful.” Adrian nodded as his gaze landed on the Snow Lotus.

“Let’s leave quickly,” said Audrey.

She was worried that someone might come looking for them after some time. It was already shocking enough that the Snow Qilin was able to give up the Snow Lotus. Audrey did not wish for anyone to disturb the snow Qilin.

Right, we’ve obtained the Snow Lotus. We can finally leave this godforsaken place! Klein thought as the corners of his lips curled up. Then, he rubbed his arms.

Audrey glanced at everyone’s wet clothes. “Don’t move.”

Then, Audrey cast a spell on everyone. Everyone’s clothes were dry, visible to the naked eye.

Then, Audrey took out an equal portion of the potion and distributed it to everyone.

“If you drink this, your bodies will be much warmer. Otherwise, you might catch a cold when you return,” she said.

“Thank you, Audrey. You’re an unfathomable treasure!” After saying that, Klein stepped forward and hugged Audrey.

Klein’s embrace made Audrey stiffen for a moment, but soon, Klein let go of her.

“It’s alright. We’re a team.” Audrey smiled embarrassedly as she touched the tip of her nose. It was a little unnatural.

Soon, the group descended the mountain.

“We’re finally going back!” Adrian revealed a sincere smile on his face.

Everyone could not wait to leave the snow mountain.

“Quickly hide the Snow Lotus. Otherwise, if others find out, they might have malicious intentions to snatch the Snow Lotus away,” Cole reminded as he looked at the Snow Lotus in Audrey’s hand.

“It’s too late now!” The mysterious man’s deep, hoarse voice came from behind everyone.

Immediately after, Audrey and the others quickly turned around to look at Daisy and Xavier.

“Xavier!” Hobart exclaimed.

Kate subconsciously wanted to block Audrey behind him.

“It’s fine.” Audrey noticed Kate’s actions and stopped him as she said softly.

The mysterious man’s gaze landed on the Snow Lotus in Audrey’s hand.

“The snow-white plant in Audrey’s hand must be the Snow Lotus!” Daisy stared at Audrey with jealousy.

She did not expect Audrey to have found the Snow Lotus. She did not know how lucky she was to have found the Snow Lotus!

Daisy and the others had never thought that Audrey had used her strength to obtain the Snow Lotus.

“Go!” The mysterious man flashed to Audrey’s side in an instant, acting as if he wanted to snatch the Snow Lotus.

Fortunately, Audrey reacted quickly. She quickly retreated and hid the Snow Lotus behind her, preventing the Snow Lotus from being damaged.

When the others saw that the mysterious man had gone up, they followed suit.

Klein and Cole held Daisy while Adrian and Hobart held Xavier back.

“Snow Lotus, we must get her!” The mysterious man warned Audrey, implying that he wanted Audrey to take the initiative to give up the Snow Lotus.

Audrey and the others did not answer him but used their actions to explain. After a few moves, Audrey knew that this was not the way.

They had not fought before, especially this mysterious man whose name she did not know.

“Let’s go!” Audrey teleported away with everyone.

White fog appeared on the spot. Audrey and the others teleported to a place not too far away, but they had temporarily escaped from under the mysterious man’s nose.

“Teleportation consumes too much energy. We can only teleport here,” Audrey explained why they had teleported to this place.

This place was not too far from where they had fought earlier.

“This place is very close. We can only find a place to hide for the time being,” Audrey said. She did not notice her injured hand that was bleeding when she exchanged blows with the mysterious man.

On the contrary, Kate was the first to notice that Audrey was injured.

“Audrey, you’re injured.” Kate reached out and grabbed Audrey’s hand, frowning.

She freed her hand from the other person’s hand and glanced at Kate. “It’s fine.”

“The most important thing now is to hide at the foot of the mountain.” Audrey brought the topic back to the main topic.

“Yes, let’s rest first before we talk about other things.” Klein nodded and agreed with Audrey.

At the foot of the mountain, everyone was meditating on the spot to adjust their breathing.

Apart from a small wound on her hand, Audrey was not injured. She looked around. She did not know if this place was really safe.

“You guys rest here. I’ll go check the surroundings.” Audrey looked at the people who were resting. After saying that, she got up and left.

Everyone had heard Audrey’s voice, but they could not interrupt the adjustment of their breathing. That was why no one responded to Audrey.

Kate’s injuries were not serious, so he recovered quickly. Seeing that Audrey was about to leave, he called out to Audrey.

“Audrey, I’ll go with you.” Kate stood up, pretending to go with Audrey.

“There’s no need.” Audrey glanced at the others who were still recuperating and shook her head. “You stay here and keep watch for them in case anything happens.”

Kate thought for a moment and agreed.

“Okay, then you be careful,” Kate looked at Audrey and said.

Audrey walked and discovered a cave not far away.

Why was there a cave here? They had teleported to this location. Audrey remembered that there was no cave at all.

“No, I have to go take a look,” Audrey said to herself as she looked at the cave warily.
