"Ancestor, there's definitely the presence of a Clow Card here, the compass is reacting!"
Li Xiaolang gazed at the arrow faintly appearing on the compass under the spell's influence, his face lighting up with excitent.
Although he was sowhat mature for his age, he was still just a child. Naturally, he was thrilled to be so close to finding the legendary Clow Card, especially in front of his ancestor.
"Then let's go take a look."
George thought for a mont before speaking.
His presence had clearly altered the original course of events, such as the fact that they seed to have arrived here half a day earlier than in the original tiline.
To ensure nothing went wrong, he felt it was best to stick close to Li Xiaolang at the beginning.
After all, he didn't want to end up fighting Xiaoying over the Clow Card—now that would be a problem.
Besides, he was genuinely curious about the Clow Card.
The two of them left the villa, jumping across rooftops as they ran in the direction indicated by the compass.
The Li family practiced not only Taoist magic but also martial arts. They were no fragile mages; without the aid of any magical spells, they could jump across rooftops like martial arts experts.
If Li Qingshan had kept up with his training during the day, he wouldn't have gotten so out of shape.
"It's in that art gallery!"
The old and young arrived at a tall building in the center of the town, and Li Xiaolang quickly confird the approximate location of the Clow Card based on the compass's direction.
Upon hearing "art gallery," George traced back through his mories of his past life and realized that the Clow Card in question was likely the "Silence" card.
This was an interesting card—it not only silenced those around it but could also forcibly teleport anyone who made a sound to a distant location. It had a double effect.
Rumor had it that Clow Reed invented this card specifically because he found Xiaoke's constant chattering unbearable.
In fact, during his studies in the "Fairy Tail" magical texts, George had encountered a spell with a similar silencing effect.
However, the drawback of written magic was that the magic effect would appear in the form of written words, and as soon as those words were destroyed, the effect would vanish.
The Harry Potter magical system also had a spell that could silence a person's voice, but it only worked on individuals.
In terms of power, none of those could compare to the "Silence" card's wide-reaching effect.
"Xiaolang, to capture the Clow Card, you must rely on your own strength. Otherwise, the card won't accept you, and you won't be able to use it.
So I can't assist you much," George said.
"Ancestor, I know. My mother has already told . You can watch from the side; I will use my own abilities to capture the Clow Card."
Li Xiaolang drew his magic sword and took out a stack of talismans, his face brimming with confidence.
At that mont, a pink RV slowly stopped near the art gallery's entrance. Two young girls erged from the vehicle and stealthily entered the gallery.
One of the girls was dressed in a thief costu adorned with devil wings, holding a bird-shaped magic staff, with a small yellow doll perched on her shoulder.
The other girl wore a pink dress and held a small cara, continuously filming the first girl.
"Xiaoying, Xiaoke, and Chise," George imdiately recognized the trio, though he didn't say anything aloud.
Li Xiaolang furrowed his brow.
"Who are they? And why do I feel like that one also has the aura of a Clow Card?"
Once again manipulating the compass, Li Xiaolang noticed that the needle began to shift, occasionally pointing toward the exhibition hall of the art gallery, and at other tis, toward the girl holding the bird-headed staff.
Putting away the compass, Li Xiaolang leaped into the air, landing directly in front of Xiaoying and Chise, blocking their path.
Seeing this, George followed closely behind and landed nearby.
"Ah!"
Startled by the sudden appearance of Li Xiaolang, dressed in a Daoist robe and holding a magic sword, and George beside him, Xiaoying and Chise jumped in shock.
"Li Xiaolang of the Li family, who are you, and why do you have a Clow Card?"
"The Li family, is that the distant relative of Clow Reed?"
Xiaoke spread her wings and flew up from Xiaoying's shoulder.
"You weird-looking guy, what are you supposed to be?"
Upon seeing the doll on Xiaoying's shoulder suddenly move and speak, Li Xiaolang imdiately beca alert, raising his magic sword in front of him, ready to chant a spell at any mont.
Upon hearing Xiaolang's words, Xiaoke was imdiately enraged and roared loudly:
"You annoying little brat, what do you an by 'weird-looking guy'? I am the sacred beast Cerberus, the seal of the sun!"
"What? You're the Cerberus, the strongest guardian beast with the legendary Golden Eyes!"
Li Xiaolang put away his magic sword, pointing at Xiaoke with a look of disillusionnt.
"How could you just be so kind of doll?"
His words clearly struck a nerve with Xiaoke, and with a snap of her jaws, she bit down on Li Xiaolang's finger. After a brief struggle, he finally shook her off.
"I've rely lost the magic of Earth and Fire, that's why I'm in this form.
Once Xiaoying collects the Earth and Fire cards, I'll regain my strength. Don't look down on , you brat!"
"Her? You want her to collect the Clow Cards? You've got to be kidding, she's just an ordinary person, right?"
Li Xiaolang sized up Xiaoying and asked, "How long have you been collecting the Clow Cards? How many have you gathered?"
"Nearly two months now, and I've found eight cards in total," Xiaoying said sowhat sheepishly.
Li Xiaolang furrowed his brow, "Eight cards in two months? It seems you don't have much ability. Hand over all the Clow Cards you've collected. From now on, I'll take over the task of collecting the cards."
"Clow Reed has half of my Li family's blood. Naturally, I should be the one to collect the Clow Cards."
"Xiaoke?"
Xiaoying looked helplessly at Xiaoke, feeling conflicted. She felt that Li Xiaolang had a point, but after two months of bonding, she couldn't bear to part with Xiaoke or the Clow Cards she had painstakingly collected and inscribed her na on.
anwhile, Xiaoke flew to Xiaoying's shoulder, pointed at Li Xiaolang, and spoke in a loud voice:
"Xiaoying is the magician I chose, and she unlocked the seals of the Clow Cards. Although she's not fully mature yet, she will definitely collect all the Clow Cards in the future. We don't need you, you little brat, to make decisions for us!"
"Then let's have a competition! Whoever wins gets the right to collect and inherit the Clow Cards!"
Li Xiaolang placed a talisman on his magic sword, assuming an attacking stance.
Xiaoying, holding her bird-headed staff, looked confused. Why were they suddenly about to fight? She didn't know how to fight!
At that mont, George stepped forward and placed a hand on Li Xiaolang's shoulder, finally speaking up:
"Xiaolang, you can't just challenge a girl to a duel the first ti you et.
The matter of who collects the Clow Cards can wait. There's still one Clow Card left to deal with. Let's capture that one first."
As he spoke, he pointed toward the "Silence" card in the exhibition hall.
He felt that if he didn't intervene now, things might escalate into a full-blown fight, and then it really would be a case of brief satisfaction in torturing his wife, and a desperate pursuit of her afterward.
