Chapter 2162


    James was not in a hurry and waited patiently. James walked into the Celestial Abode with Laelia as


    the soldiers moved the grains.


    As soon as James walked into the City Lord’s Mansion inside the Celestial Abode, a purple bird flew


    over. It gradually shrank to the size of a sparrow, thennded on James’ shoulder.


    “Oh!”


    Laelia could not help eximing upon Seeing the sparrow-sized Gorger.


    James turned around and looked at her, asking, “What’s wrong?”


    Laelia stared at the Gorger intently. After a few seconds, she said with a smile, “It looks very simr to


    the red bird at the vige in my family’s ancestralnds.”


    James felt a shiver run down his spine after hearing her words.


    The little bird at the vige in the Targwyns’ ancestralnd?


    James did not pay attention, so he did not know there was a simr bird in the ancestralnd. However,


    if Laelia pointed it out, she must be correct.


    James knew the purple bird was a Gorger.


    ‘Could there be another Gorger in the Targwyns’ ancestralnd?


    ‘Could it be the parent of this purple Gorger?’


    Thinking of the possibilities, James’ blood ran cold.


    Laelia asked, “What’s the matter, James?”


    “It’s nothing.”


    He came to his senses and said nonchntly, “I guess birds more or less look alike.”


    Laelia nodded. “Mhm, that’s true. The bird in our ancestralnd has red fathers, but this one is purple.


    Your bird is gorgeous.”


    After speaking, she reached out to touch the Gorger on James’ shoulder.


    The Gorger immediately flew away. It pped its tiny wings in the air and chittered at Laelia.


    Laelia said smilingly, “I see this little guy has a bit of a temper.”


    While this was happening, James’ thoughts were fixated on what Laelia had mentioned just now.


    He wondered whether there was another Gorger in the Targwyns’ ancestralnd and if it was the one


    that had a cultivation base close to the ultimate rank.


    The ancestralnd was not a simple ce if his conjectures were true.


    James felt slightly anxious after considering all the possibilities.


    “James.”


    Sophie walked out from the mansion gate and greeted James with a bright smile.


    James straightened up and replied, “Ms. Sophie.”


    Sophie nodded lightly in response to James. Then, her eyes locked onto Laelia, and a white glow


    shone from her eyes, scanning Laelia.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    At that moment, Laelia felt like everything had beenid bare and no secret would escape unnoticed by


    Sophie.


    She took a few steps backward.


    Soon, the white glow on her body disappeared.


    James knew what Sophie had done and was exasperated. He reprimanded her, “What are you doing,


    Ms. Sophie? Why would you scan her the moment you just met her?”


    Sophie said smilingly, “I just felt a different aura about her and wanted to know why.”


    Hearing this, James was also intrigued. He asked, “What’s the result?”


    By now, he was somewhat used to Sophie’s quirks.


    If Sophie thought that Laelia was unusual, that meant she must be very extraordinary.


    Sophie said with a faint smile, “Even if I told you, you won’t understand. I’m going to the training


    grounds in the back of the city to check on your army.”


    She then turned around and left.
