Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 781: Can you sense him?



Amidst the countless distant twinkling stars and planets, Yue's gaze was fixated on the swirling mass of energy wrapped in a gray shield, her expression unreadable.

Nox's massive form floated a short distance behind her, with Bia seated on his back in her human form, her expression relaxed and strangely calm.

The two watched Yue's back as the elf stared at the gray shield, now protected by countless armored warriors. Each one had a large gray sword symbol engraved on the front of their

armor.

The guards, though powerful, felt a bit uneasy and tense as they observed the two powerful beasts alongside the familiar elf, who would return to this place every few weeks to gaze at the shield.

They had been assigned by James and several other powerful individuals to protect the shield from the dark side and any daring souls who might attempt to cause harm. If they found themselves unable to handle the danger, they were also to inform the elders, who had scattered to combat the dark side that had begun to attack all the planets.

However, they never understood why so many powerful individuals would come to stare at the seal, especially these three!

After a while, Yue withdrew her gaze and turned to Bia with a calm expression.

"Can you sense him?"

Bia leaped down from Nox's back, her golden hair cascading behind her like a shimmering waterfall.

She wore a blue-gold dress paired with matching shoes. It was clear that she had begun to somewhat like her human form.

-"No."

She closed her eyes and tried once more to grasp the faint, thread-like connection she still had with Kyle, but failed. Fiddling with the storage ring on her finger, she retrieved a yellowish fruit and took a bite.

-"It's only been two months. Don't worry about him... He will show up soon..."

She trailed off and changed the topic.

-"Anyway, what are you going to say to the elven Queen? She reached out to you and Regius to help save the Tree of Fate... She mentioned that the tree is a symbol of your race or something. Tsk, I don't want to help. I am going back to join the others, who are near the Sea of Consciousness."

Yue remained silent. This wasn't the first time the elven Queen had asked her and Regius for assistance. It intrigued her how persistent the elves were just because she and Regius belonged to the elven race.

She knew that the elven Queen wasn't seeking her and Regius's help because they were exceptionally strong. It was because she knew that if they agreed, Alec and the others would naturally follow them.

"Let's talk about it later. For now-"

Her words were abruptly interrupted by a loud explosion that resonated from afar.

Instantly, all eyes in the area turned toward the horizon, where they witnessed a planet erupting into a cloud of debris.

What followed was the sinister laughter of the Demon and Nightkin race erupting from the destruction as their dark, distant figures pursued the fleeing people of the planet, who desperately tried to escape.

Many of the powerful guards surrounding the gray shield immediately rushed to help the inhabitants of the planet and eliminate the dark aide people with seething eyes. To think- the dark side had become so bold as to attack a planet near this place; they had passed the point of caution!

For the past two months, it was true that the entire universe had been thrown into complete chaos, with the forces under the shadow generals assaulting every planet in sight. However, they had not attacked the planet near the shield, as it was heavily guarded by many powerful individuals.

Yue also grabbed her weapons. She had followed Nine two months ago and mostly stayed near the Sea of Consciousness in camouflage after he assured her that Kyle was fine and stopped her from tearing down the gray shield to find him.

Nine had advised everyone to focus on getting stronger to fight the challenges ahead, rather than fretting over those who wouldn't hesitate to abandon them the moment they lost their usefulness.

As a result, she hadn't witnessed the gruesome sight the three shadow generals were creating by spilling rivers of blood on every planet without fear, even though many of their forces had been getting killed.

Still, there was no way Yue would stand by and watch as the Demon and Nightkin race hunted others like mere animals.

"Bia! Nox!"

Her voice echoed through the air as she vanished toward the battle. Bia clicked her tongue, but she quickly turned serious as she followed behind Yue.

Nox sighed and trailed after the two. He wondered how these two women still had the strength to fight. His entire body ached since he had recently tried to enter the Sea of Consciousness because Nine told him it was nothing and that the others were just

exaggerating the pain.

He regretted trusting that evil human! He just wanted to get stronger, but given that his strength was at the end of divine rank, he nearly died after just a single dip in the sea. He was traumatized and had sworn he wouldn't even go near that sea again!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

'I don't understand how that evil human managed to coax all the men to jump into the Sea of Conciousness... and I believed him despite seeing how the other before me screamed themselves hoarse!'

Far away, the air crackled with sparks of electricity and explosions as the dark side launched their assault on those they were pursuing. Their evil laughter faded when they realized their noise had drawn the attention of even more people.

Yue and Bia attacked them with all their strength, alongside the guards. But they were all dumbfounded when the members of the dark side suddenly fled the area.

It was as if they were only there to destroy the planet and kill as many as possible. They didn't even look back, their lips stretching in eerie smiles as they vanished.
