Celestial Bloodline-Chapter 419 She’ll be back in a minute or two
Chapter 419 She'll be back in a minute or two
Yon's hammer collided with a hard surface, and a loud bang echoed in the air. He looked up and saw the dark-robed elven man who had been quietly standing beside Diora all this time. The man effortlessly blocked his attack with just the back of his hand.
Hay scoffed at the dwarf and with a push, sent him backward a few meters in mid-air. Then, he straightened his robe and turned to look at Diora, whose eyes were glued to his back.
"Indeed, those strange icy flames caught us off-guard, but you shouldn't let yourself get distracted, Diora."
Diora gritted her teeth at his words, and her mood turned dark. She clenched her fists and let out a laugh.
"You're right... but now, I'm angry!"
She narrowed her eyes at Alec, Carcel, and Regius, who had gotten closer to her just because she was distracted by the blue flames.
In a flash, a whip materialized in her hand, and her nails grew darker along with her eyes, which started to shine ominously under the dim evening sunlight.
"Let's see... one, two, three... I'll take-!"
Her sentence was abruptly interrupted because she had to jump back mid-air in order to avoid a glowing arrow that was aimed directly at her head. Diora snapped her head toward the beautiful woman with orange hair who was floating in the distance.
Lara tilted her head as her gaze locked with the woman who had nearly killed her in the past. If it weren't for Alec, she might not have even survived. Although she had no idea how he saved her life.
The moment their eyes met, the old memories of seeing so many people die in front of her eyes came flooding back into Lara's mind, causing her eyes to become devoid of emotion.
"So, what were you saying? Three? No, the number is bigger. Count again."
Lara's cold voice sounded in the air. Mia and Yue glanced at her and the two of them raised their voices to agree with her.
The corners of Jian's eyes lifted, showing a mix of anger and mirth at the same time.
"Wow, that was cool! Now it's my turn!"
He summoned a fire tornado, and the fiery flames surged into the air before heading straight toward Diora with lightning-fast speed. The woman's eyes grew even darker as she watched the flames, and a piercing cry escaped her lips.
"You bastards! I am going to kill you all!"
Diora sensed it right away that the fiery flames Jian used weren't strong, completely different from the icy blue flames that had momentarily halted her before.
But before she could disperse the flames, Yue and Mia unleashed their most powerful attacks. The air cracked with lightning as a thunderstorm appeared in the sky.
Alec, Carcel, and Regius exchanged glances and attacked the woman from different directions with their weapons.
Diora roared and looked at Hay, but she laughed with anger when she saw her companion surrounded by countless figures from all directions.
Just like her, Hay seemed to be in a tight spot with Nine, Sinon, Yon, Istalian, and many others attacking him from all sides.
Diora's angry eyes then traveled towards the grey-haired man floating in the distance, the same man who had blocked her initial attack. She stopped Alec and Regius' attacks with her nails and thrashed her whip to disperse the thunder and flames.
The woman's expression twisted with pure rage because the grey-haired man didn't even join the others to stop her and Hay. He just watched from a distance with an emotionless gaze, as if he believed his involvement wasn't necessary.
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! You bastard! How dare you mess up with me! I'll kill you! No, I'll kill all of you!"
Her eyes blazed with anger, and with a powerful thrash of her whip, the people around her were pushed back mid-air.
"You weak ants think you can stop me with your meager strength? Let's see how long you can last!"
Diora locked eyes with Hay and shouted his name. In the next second, she raised her hand and released her divine pressure in all directions. Alec, along with everyone around him, froze in their tracks.
Not only them, but a sense of dread enveloped the countless people standing beneath them as the air turned heavy and suffocating the moment the woman released her pressure.
Hay wanted to join Diora, but his eyes widened when he noticed a familiar figure materializing behind her.
"Behind you!"
He shouted, but it was too late because before Diora could sense something behind her, a powerful kick landed on her back, throwing her body forward in mid-air.
Diora's surprised cry echoed in the air as she quickly tried to balance herself, but her eyes widened when a portal materialized in front of her.
"What the hell?!"
She wanted to tear the portal with her nails, but another powerful kick landed on her back. In the next second, the portal enveloped her body, and her vision turned dark. The moment she vanished into the portal, her divine pressure disappeared, and countless relieved sighs echoed in the air.
Hay cried out and gazed at the flickering portal that vanished into thin air before snapping his head toward the culprit.
"Human! Don't think I can't tear you apart right here and right now!"
Kyle lowered his leg and glanced back at the man with a raised brow. His lips curled upward, but his eyes remained cold.
"Why don't you give it a shot? But I believe you'll have to go through a lot of people before you can even get close to me."
Nine and Sinon crackled at his words. The duo raised their weapons and once again attacked the man with Yon and the others. Alec, Carcel, Lara, Yue, and Mia also joined in, raining countless attacks on the elven man who seemed to have gone quiet for some reason after hearing Kyle's words.
Hay's eyes darted around. Now that Diora wasn't here, there was no point in fighting so many people alone. He knew he could overpower them with his divine pressure, but he knew it wouldn't work for long.
Jian gazed at Kyle and the empty air around the man. The red-haired man rubbed his chin and asked him the question that almost everyone had been itching to ask.
"What did you do with Diora? Don't tell me now you're strong enough to kill a divine being... Wow, bro, you just left for a while and got stronger again... No way!"
Instantly, everyone in the air perked up their ears, except for Yon and the ones who had already sensed what the portal did.
Kyle turned around and replied, but his response left all the people who were eagerly waiting to hear that Diora had died speechless.
"Nothing, just tossed her in a teleportation portal to send her to a faraway place. She'll be back in a minute or two... I guess."
