Celestial Bloodline-Chapter 573 Such a beautiful creature...

Jian paused in mid-air and gave a wry smile at his words, causing everyone except Yue around him to feel concerned.

"Kyle actually got separated from me and Bia after we were sucked into the ethereal tunnel. But he's fine and managed to find Yue. Bia and I only recently caught up with him and reunited with Yue and Nox."

"Later, he and Bia disappeared together because Kyle wanted to boost his divine energy level. He did mention he would meet me and Yue at the Arena. So, we will just have to wait until he shows up."

Nine smacked his shoulder when he finished speaking with a deadpan expression.

"Then why are you wearing an expression that says he's not fine at all, huh?"

Jian clicked his tongue.

"Of course, it's because he didn't take me with him. I'm sure by now he has found so many treasures within the Sacred Divine Land... No, I fear he might have emptied the whole divine land with his luck..."

He groaned and settled into a seat next to Xavier on the chairs arranged within the towering walls as everyone else sat down around him. Alec furrowed his brows once more, this time turning his gaze towards the two shadow generals as a sense of foreboding gripped his heart. 𝔣𝚛eewe𝚋𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝔩.𝚌𝔬m

"Those bastards..."

A curse slipped from his lips because he had a feeling that the shadow generals had somehow sensed the dark mark hidden on the back of his hand. The soft curse drew all eyes towards him since it was uncommon for him to curse.

However, before anyone could ask him what happened, a faint commotion broke out in the distance. Immediately, all eyes turned toward the noise, and Alec, who had his gaze on the shadow generals, shifted his eyes above their heads when a large shadow engulfed their bodies. He was the first one to take in a sharp intake of breath, and everyone sitting around him followed suit as their eyes widened in astonishment when they saw the huge figure casting the shadow not just over any individuals, but the two shadow generals themselves!

Although many bonded beasts were present in the Gladiator Arena, once inside, no one dared to transform back to their original forms. All were cautioned at the Arena gates by the illusionary figures that their bonded beasts were forbidden from assuming their original forms inside, as their substantial sizes could disrupt the peace of the surroundings. Yet, at this very moment, a fire phoenix made her entrance into the Arena in her massive form.

Whispers and murmurs erupted in the Arena as the spectators questioned the boldness and audacity of the phoenix. But a hushed silence fell over the crowd when they realized the phoenix had not breached the boundaries of the Gladiator Arena. Instead, she was floating a few inches above the towering walls encircling the numerous stages in the center.

Old Hal's eyes shifted toward the phoenix bathed in golden flames; he had already noticed the presence of the phoenix and the human with her but didn't take any action to stop them as they were still outside the boundaries of the Gladiator Arena. The individuals in robes seated behind the old man all furrowed their brows at the scene.

Despite the phoenix's beauty, she was only at the divine rank, yet she displayed such arrogance by floating above everyone to make her presence known. Not to mention, the phoenix even caught the attention of the two shadow generals...

The people sitting behind Old Hal couldn't help but shake their heads in disapproval, thinking the phoenix had acted recklessly given her lack of strength. Will gazed at the phoenix with a smirk.

"Such a beautiful creature..."

He wanted to capture her and place her among the numerous treasures he had amassed over his lifetime simply to decorate the dark abode he lived in.

He and Ceano both looked up when they sensed the presence that had just landed on the demon's statue behind them. The first thing they saw was an indifferent face, devoid of any trace of fear, even though he stood just a bit further away from two powerful dark figures dreaded by nearly everyone in the Arena. Then, they noticed the silver hair and bright green eyes gazing softly at the flying phoenix.

Kyle had already felt the numerous eyes on him and initially glanced down to lock eyes with the two shadow generals who greeted him with smiles. He raised a brow because even though their smiles looked harmless, he could feel the hidden malice beneath those smiles. Also, he wasn't able to sense their ranks, which means the duo were stronger than him.

He opened his mouth, and a smile eerily similar to the ones on the shadow generals' faces appeared on his lips.

"What are you staring at? Never seen a good-looking guy before?"

A wild laughter escaped Will's lips at his words, and Ceano's eyes flashed with a strange glint as he noticed the smile on the human's face.

A notion crossed the second shadow general's mind that this human was somewhat dangerous. Not because he was powerful, but because the aura surrounding him bore a striking resemblance to that of someone willing to go to any lengths to accomplish their objective. He sensed it because he was just like that too.

Kyle shifted his gaze and glanced at Bia, unaware that he had just spoken with the shadow generals. He had stopped using his scent perception skill as soon as he neared the Gladiator Arena because he was aware that numerous powerful individuals would be present inside the towering walls, and they would detect his skill the moment he activated it. The phoenix expressed her joy in his mind and reverted to her smaller forms before landing on his head.

-'I have found Yue and Jian! They are not alone; the others are with them too!'

Kyle gazed down in the direction where Bia had pointed and noticed a group of people staring at him. He tilted his head, observing their faces, and tried his best to recall the memories he had with them, but unfortunately, he couldn't.

'I will remember with time... I guess.'
