The night was as dark as ink, with the salty and slightly chilly sea breeze.
"Chirp—!"
A clear and high-pitched cry tore through the quiet night, as Spark suddenly spread its golden-red wings. The blazing flames flowing from its wingtips swiftly dispelled most of the darkness, leaving behind a lingering seven-colored light trail from its long tail feathers.
Chen Yuan sat on the broad back, adjusting his goggles, his deep gaze reflecting the myriad starlight scattered on the sea surface.
A moment later, after leaving the mountain peak, two ships, one large and one small, docked by the shore came into view.
Soaring through the night sky, Spark was like a fallen star swimming upstream, quickly dispelling the oppressive darkness around the boats and startling the nocturnal Pet Beasts resting on the seaside rocks.
Everyone on the boats, attracted by the sudden light, flocked to the rails.
"It's Advisor Chen's Blazing Heaven Falcon!"
"Advisor Chen is back!"
