Celestial Bloodline-Chapter 511 I wanted to help you a bit
Chapter 511 I wanted to help you a bit
The atmosphere inside the wooden house got colder as Glacia swiftly turned left to grab the man, who had sidestepped and dodged her hand.
"Huh...?"
She scrutinized her empty hand and attempted once more to grasp Kyle, but in that moment, something both blunt and sharp pressed against her back. Without hesitation, she vanished from her position and reappeared a short distance away from the silver-haired man who had his hand suspended in midair.
Glacia fixed her gaze on Kyle's hand, particularly his fingers, which were stained with blood. The blood couldn't have come from the man since he had evaded her grasp. So then...?
She extended her hand to touch her back, and her expression chilled when she felt something moist on her fingers.
"That... blood is mine? How?"
She lifted her eyes to stare at Kyle with a stunned expression. Did he just try to dig his nails into her back? No, no, the main question is how and when did he do it?
How the hell could a person who had just reached the divine rank move so fast that she wasn't even able to notice?
Her face darkened as the blood trickled down her back, and she felt the sensation vividly. The wounds weren't deep, mostly because she moved away before he could further dig his nails into her back.
Elli and Iva both staggered back with shock, and just like the woman, their eyes were fixed on Kyle's bloodied fingers.
The man lowered his hand with a remorseful expression, and the blood on his fingers turned to ice before it scattered into particles and vanished into thin air as if he never had it on his hand at all.
Kyle tilted his head and stared at Glacia, whose facial expressions mirrored shock, disbelief, and bewilderment.
"It's been a while, hasn't it? I'm glad you remember me because I just did as well."
Glacia's eyes twitched, and she let out a laugh that echoed through the wooden house. In an instant, the wounds on her back started to heal as spiritual energy emanated from her body to cover them. She used her divine energy to envelop the space around the house in her domain to gain complete control over her surroundings.
At first, the woman believed she could easily handle the human, but it turned out she was utterly mistaken. Kyle's sudden appearance was indeed something that sparked her interest, but she was angry because a human who had just entered the divine rank could wound her, especially when she was just a step away from reaching the supreme rank.
Glacia's lips curled upward into a sweet smile as the silver-haired man took a step toward her, completely unaware that the domain that had rendered him powerless in the past had once again expanded to encompass everything around them.
"Right, it's been a while. So how about we pick up where we left off and finish what was left undone in the past?"
It was then that she noticed the land beneath her had completely frozen into ice, adorned with countless bright symbols lighting up the icy surface.
"When did you...?"
Kyle rubbed his wrist, and the numerous bright symbols on the ground began to float, creating a mesmerizing spectacle of gold, white, and grey. They trembled under the immense amount of spiritual energy that emanated from his body to envelop them.
In the next second, under everyone's eyes, the symbols spread out in all directions and disappeared as they passed through the wooden walls to leave the house. Kyle glanced at Glacia, who unconsciously stepped back.
"Nice question. It's when you were busy expanding the layer of divine energy to isolate the space around us."
He vanished from his spot, and Glacia's eyes widened in disbelief because she was not able to control his movements even after expanding her domain.
In the next moment, a thunderous boom echoed through the air, causing it to quiver as Glacia's eyes narrowed into slits at the sight of the clenched fist aimed at her upper body. The speed was so fast that it rivaled hers. No, it was even faster than hers. She hastily raised her arms to intercept the attack.
But the woman immediately realized she had made a big mistake because, even though she managed to block the attack successfully, the unmistakable sound of her bones fracturing upon impact pierced her ears like a haunting melody.
Moreover, the sheer force of the blow propelled her body backward, and a cry of pain escaped her lips as she crashed through the wooden wall behind her.
Right after that, the house's structure started to crumble as a hole opened in the wall across from Kyle.
He stared at the dust and shattered pieces of wood that scattered all over, but his ears twitched when he heard Iva and Elli's cries that echoed a little later because the scene turned messy just too fast for them to comprehend what the hell happened.
Kyle glanced at the two elven women who scrambled back when they saw the pair of green eyes staring at them with little to no emotion. He clicked his tongue and exited the house through the hole.
Outside the house, Glacia managed to stop herself by planting her feet firmly into the ground. The woman gazed at her shaking arms, and for the first time, her eyes reflected fear.
What in the world just happened...?
However, no one could capture the magnitude of her shock when she saw the solid layer of ice that encircled the area around the house. It was as though the icy barrier had entirely sealed off the space from the outside world. The icy layer was shimmering with the familiar symbols that had just left the house... And her domain... it was completely overshadowed by the icy layer brimming with immense spiritual energy.
"This is....?"
Her breath caught in her throat when a familiar deep and cold voice responded.
"Oh, it's my domain. I thought you didn't want anyone to disturb us, so I wanted to help you a bit. We don't want to attract any more unwelcome guests now, do we?"
