The Lord's Empire (Part 1)

Chapter 161-165

Chapter 161: No Return... The Path of Kings!

Within a silent valley, a heavily injured person covered with blood lay within a grassy area. There were also three strange humanoid creatures flying around him and shining colorful rays of light on him.

Zhao Fu slowly opened his eyes - the sunlight was quite bright, so he used his blood-stained hands to block out the rays of light.

Suddenly, the three humanoid creatures flying around him cried out and spoke in a strange language. Only then did Zhao Fu notice them.

They were about as big as a palm and looked like little girls. Their facial features were cute and delicate, and they wore clothes made from flower petals and had a pair of leaf-shaped transparent wings on their backs.

The only thing that was different among them was the flowers on their heads. One had a rose flower on her head and seemed quite lively; one had a lily flower on her head and seemed quite gentle and quiet; and the other had a peach blossom flower on her head and seemed quite shy.

"Flower Spirits?"

Seeing the creatures flying around him, Zhao Fu realized that they were most likely Flower Spirits.

At this moment, the Flower Spirit with a rose flower on her head shot out a red light towards Zhao Fu, allowing him to understand their words.

"Human, we were the ones who saved you!" The Flower Spirit with a rose flower on her head placed her tiny hands on her hips as a pleased smile appeared on her face.

Zhao Fu still felt quite weak, but he mustered up a smile and replied, "Thank you all!"

The Flower Spirit with the rose flower on her head laughed happily as she replied, "No need to thank us! We're kind and pure Flower Spirits!"

At this moment, the Flower Spirit with the lily flower on her head said quietly, "Don't listen to her, human. We only saved you because your body gives off an aura that attracts Flower Spirits greatly."

"Ah! Lilylily!"

The Flower Spirit with the rose flower on her head cried out unhappily when she heard the other Flower Spirit reveal the truth.

Zhao Fu remembered the Flower's Embrace blessing that he had received during the Ten Thousand Flower Festival. It increased his charm towards females and made it easier for spirits to like him.

Zhao Fu had never thought that the blessing would be useful in such a situation. After conversing with the three Fairy Spirits for a while, he learned their names.

The Fairy Spirit with the rose flower on her head was called Roserose; the one with the lily flower was called Lilylily; and the one with the peach blossom flower on her head was called Peachy.

Because of the blessing and Zhao Fu's amicable attitude with them, they became quite familiar with Zhao Fu. The Flower Spirits didn't hide anything from him and told him all of their abilities.

The first was an attack-type skill that could control plants to attack others or defend themselves.

The second was a special skill that reduced the withering speed of flowers wherever they were by a factor of six.

The third was a healing skill that possessed advanced life magic.

The fourth was a plant skill that could reduce the time it took to grow plants by up to a factor of five.

Of course, the one that shocked Zhao Fu the most was the fourth skill. Reducing the time it took for plants to grow by a factor of five was simply terrifying.
