Celestial Bloodline-Chapter 502 We are not here to sit

Xavier rolled his eyes, and his expression clearly showed he didn't believe the red-haired man one bit.

"Well, I am a hundred times better than her companion who left her alone in such a dangerous world. I will see just how strong that person is when the time comes. He asked you and Bia to go to the Sacred Divine Land, right?"

Jian raised an eyebrow. It's been a while since they talked about the Sacred Divine Land because they were caught up in the war. Initially, he and Bia had no idea about the location of that place and how to get there after leaving this planet.

But then Xavier informed them that a few elders on his planet were knowledgeable about that place. These elders requested Jian and Bia to stay on the planet for a few years due to the phoenix's unique ability to control thousands of monsters, which greatly aided the human race in repelling the nightkin for the first time.

No matter what, the prospect of having a vast army of monsters at their disposal was truly remarkable.

In order to persuade Bia to remain on the planet, they suggested teleporting both Jian and Bia directly to the Sacred Divine Land using an array once the conditions on their planet improved. But no one could have imagined that within just a few years, they would win the war.

Xavier chuckled and thumped his chest. The elders had already informed him and Jian about everything regarding the Sacred Divine Land. Now they just need to use the array and go there.

"Doesn't that mean Bia's bonded companion will take part in the Gladiator Arena? Haha, I can join as well since I have not gone past the transcendent rank yet. The war just ended as well, and now I can leave the planet. I am also going to enter the Gladiator Arena just so Bia can see who's stronger-!"

His words got cut off as he cried out when Jian let go of his arm, and he immediately plummeted towards the ground. Xavier quickly regained his balance mid-air and glared at the red-haired man.

"What was that for?"

Jian smirked and tilted his head with an innocent expression.

"Oh, sorry, my hands slipped."

He glanced around.

"I really thought a fly was buzzing around my ears... tsk, tsk, it really needs a good beating so it can acquire some common sense because despite knowing the risks, it insists on poking the hornet's nest."

Xavier's eyes widened with disbelief... did that little punk who is more than twenty years younger than him call him a fly!?

He rolled up his sleeves to show Jian just who the fly really was, but before he could confront the red-haired man, Bia killed her opponent, and her body flashed with a bright light. The phoenix regained her smaller form and then landed on the red-haired man's shoulder.

Jian crackled menacingly and dared Xavier to come closer with his smug expression. He grinned when Xavier's expression fell and reached out to stroke Bia's head, only to hiss as the phoenix pecked his finger.

"Bia! See, my fingers have marks from your fierce attacks. I was just going to pet your head gently!"

Bia sneered.

-"Why? I don't like it. Besides, you are not handsome... not a beautiful woman. It doesn't suit you."

Jian's expression stiffened at her remarks, and he quickly lowered his hand to rub his throbbing finger. In the distance, Xavier burst into laughter and taunted him with a raised brow, almost as if saying who had the upper hand now.

The war concluded with the victory of the human race after the transcendent rank individual died, and the monsters under Bia's command ruthlessly killed all remaining enemies on the battlefield.

Xavier, Jian, and some other high-rank humans themselves attended to post-war matters, such as arranging for the injured to be taken back to the camp for treatment and selecting some powerful divine-rank humans to scour the entire planet to ensure every last individual of the nightkin race was found and dealt with.

After two hectic days, the human camp was now celebrating their victory with delicious food, a variety of beverages, and tears of happiness as they had saved their planet, the very planet that was on the verge of collapse just a few years ago.

Jian entered Xavier's tent with Bia sitting on his shoulder. The grey-haired man was busy organizing papers on his desk. Xavier had finally taken off his armor, and his white spear was resting in a corner.

Xavier paused in his actions when he saw Jian approaching. He dragged a chair from a corner and placed it next to Jian before attempting to organize the stack of papers on the only large desk in the tent.

"Sorry, I have been busy. Sit down. I will be done soon, just give me a minute."

Jian and Bia both eyed the chair, but then the red-haired man grimaced silently when Bia placed her paw on his shoulder and squeezed it roughly.

Jian quickly cleared his throat to get Xavier's attention.

"We are not here to sit."

Xavier sighed and set the papers on the desk before looking at Jian quickly cleared his throat to get Xavier's attention.

"We are not here to sit."

Bia and Jian.

"I understand... Now that the war has ended, you both want to leave. Just wait for another week. A few others and I are also planning to go to the Sacred Divine Land. Let's all go together."

Bia shook her head.

-"No, it's already been so many years. I want to leave as soon as possible."

Jian shrugged his shoulders when Xavier gave him a pleading look to convince the phoenix. Xavier immediately changed his strategy and turned to Bia with a smile.

"I have fed you so many delicious things and taken care of you. Plus, you said you like my eyes. Can't you even wait another week for this pretty face?"

Bia narrowed her eyes and muttered quietly.

-"Your eyes are just a bit like Kyle's... nothing special. And you're not that pretty."

Jian laughed quietly as Xavier's expression darkened at Bia's words. The grey-haired man let out a big exhale and raised his hands in surrender.

"Alright, we will leave for the Sacred Divine Land in two days. I just have to sacrifice some sleep, no biggie. Come on, Bia, you have got to at least give me a thank you."

Bia rolled her eyes. The phoenix spread out her wings and left Jian's shoulder to land on Xavier's shoulder, who grinned excitedly just because she sat on his shoulder.

She glanced at Jian, who looked betrayed because she left his side. Bia's eyebrow twitched at their behavior, and she closed her eyes with a tired sigh.

-'A bunch of idiots...'
