The Mighty Mage

"Gu Jin it's of no use even if you stood in front of her, after your death, she will die too." An arrogant female voice sounded.

The lady had brown eyes with a sharp nose and thin eyebrows.

She could just be described as an average-looking person.

However, the malice in her eyes made her look somewhat hideous.

Gu Jin stared at the lady in front of her and turned around to analyze her surrounding.

Spotting her environment she helplessly shook her head.

The same mountain was covered with exotic plants and trees.

Right now she was standing at the top of the mountain that has a mystical aura around it.

The environment was enriching with elemental power, but she couldn't absorb it, after all, she wasn't physically present over here.

This was all familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.

Just when her thoughts were wandering she heard a weak voice behind her.

"Gu Jin don't sacrifice yourself... I was a fool to trust her..."

Gu Jin turned around to see a weak and pitiful girl lying on the ground.

The girl's face was executive and well-defined, and her blue eyes were filled with pain and anger.

If one were to observe closely, he or she could notice ruthlessness in her eyes but she hid it too well to be seen.

'Indeed' Gu Jin thought to herself.

However, the lines which came out of her mouth were contradictory to her thoughts.

"Yan'er you always protected me without any selfish motive, I want to thank..." Gu Jin was saying with tears in her eyes, but the alienation and coldness in her eyes told a different story.

The arrogant lady cut her off, " I am uninterested in any of emotional scene so....."

'Thank god she stopped me' Gu Jin muttered to herself.

The lady started chanting an incantation as her Fire element started up showing its fierceness.

A look of triumph could be seen on her face.

"Fire Bust."

'Not again' Gu Jin thought to herself before a fireball came toward her.

Before the fireball could hit her,

The scene changes and an old man appears in front of her.

The old man has a wrinkled face however one could easily deduce that in his youthful day he was a handsome man.

The old man has an authoritative aura around him.

His eyes have vicissitudes, indicating he has years of experience.

Gu Jin was not the least bit dumbfounded.

The old man gazed at her, his eyes were twinkling with worry.

"Jin'er I am leaving you under the tutelage of Old Mu. He will assist you to reach your destiny."

The old man's expression had softened on the mention of Old Mu.

As if recalling his past melancholy was visible.

"Jin'er your 15 years have already been wasted."

"Remember one thing, a person will reach their fate at a destined time."

Gu Jin was in no mood to comprehend the meaning.

It was a routine for her to listen to this bullshit.

Before the old man could continue a distanced voice called Gu Jin out.

Ring Ring

"Boss....B...Boss, it's time for the meeting."

Gu Jin rolled her eyes.

Just then old man's eyes flashed briefly and Gu Jin was covered with a golden light.

This time Gu Jin's eyes widened in shock.

This all never happened.

"Gu Jin you only have 26 days left with you." The old man said in a hushed tone.

Gu Jin was not sure whether he was informing her or assuring himself.

But she couldn't care less.

The golden mist around her was swallowing her.

Her mind swirled around.

Her eyes opened to see the familiar face.

She was still feeling drowsy however the cold sweat on her head was enough to indicate that she had a nightmare.

She heard a raspy voice from her left, "Boss...B...Boss are you okay?"

Worry in his voice can't be more obvious.

Turning to her left, she glanced at her most trusted acquaintance Ye Fui.

Ye Fui had a sickly, lean, and tall body.

However, his eyes were deep, giving off an oppressing aura.

Of all the subordinates only he was impressive enough to face her.

His eyes are of chocolate brown color, and with his tall nose and chapped lips, he should be a dream boy of many girls.

But to him, they were nothing more than a piece of wood.

Due to the cold aura emitting out of Gu Jin, Ye Fui was unable to hold his head high.

Seeing this Gu Jin withdrew her eyes off Ye Fui.

She then nodded her head, "Yes."

Pausing she said, "Just the same mysterious dream."
