Chapter 116: Elder Lui's DominanceBack at the monastery, the newly appointed 7th Elder, Elder Lui, has been facing a number of challenges. A particular group of unknown elders had been secretly causing issues for him one way or the other.There was a time when the entire water supply channel, that used to go through the maids of Elder Lui was stopped. Both maids that went to fetch the water were killed and the containers were seized. No one knew exactly what was going on.Lui discovered that no water was supplied and he was in dire need of it. He sent another batch of maids and this time he increased the number to four from the initial two he sends. Something similar happened to them. Not only did they not return, but their dead bodies were also actually found.Because of these occurrences, the other maids didn't want to volunteer to go. Elder Lui discovered the fact that there was an issue and then he decided to go and verify himself, although the maids were scared to go by themse
Chapter 117: Surprise Attack!Vera and Ella both looked at each other, unwilling to disclose the position of their master to Elder Zu. The atmosphere became awkward as they stood staring at each other.Shortly after the question was asked, Elder Lui appeared as if he had been there the whole time. "Oh, you're here" Elder Zu said as he acknowledged the presence of Elder Lui."Pardon my inquisitiveness, I wanted to give you some news and offer my assistance any way I can," Elder Zu said with a bow. Even though he had been an Elder, much longer than Elder Lui, he still saw him as a friend and awarded him the respect of a seventh Elder."Thank you, Elder Zu, you're too kind," Elder Lui said with a smile, then he continued speaking, "what do you want to tell me, Elder Zu?" ."Yes, I have successfully transferred the maids under the diseased Elder of the free five to your residence along with his goods and his apportioned food ration." Elder Zu said succinctly.Elder Lui was pleasantly s
Chapter 118: Facing the Free Five's Elder 1Elder Lui moved to the next residence while Elder Zu was left behind with the responsibility of dispatching the huge heap of food bags back to the monastery's main store. Some of the gains were also sent to the residence of Elder Lui. While the rest of the properties of the diseased Elders were shared among the maids and Elder Zu didn't interfere or stop them.The maids were involved in the transport of the goods. One by one, they were piled into a cart attached to a horse and ridden off to the appropriate destination.Elder Lui got back to the residence where he met the rude maid, he never forgot her face. He entered the floating cave calmly. He intended to carry out the assassination himself since it was just a single Elder present and that Elder happened to be the weakest among them or maybe that was what that Elder wanted others to think.Elder Lui could see the Elder standing, he was very vigilant. Elder Lui discovered that he was wro
Chapter 119: Wind Mirror Exchange!Elder Lui looked at the snake standing before him and looked back to the Elder 1 of the free five. 'This man has such a dangerous pet. He kept me talking to distract me and released it in secret so it could bite me and swallow me whole, such a cunning man!' Elder Lui had to become serious as he stared at the most powerful member of the free five.The Elder looked disappointed as he saw ElderLui easily dodge the bite of his snake pet. The Elder now slashed out his weapon as he shouted."Earth tremor double gravity pull", an invisible force sprung up from the ground and entered into the sword, it then moved forward with the sword as a channel. The force swept towards Elder Lui.Elder Lui panicked for the first time, he could see the lethality of this move, he had seen some earth powdered Elders and their fights, with their weapons, they could easily channel force fields from the earth that pin their opponents down, making the gravitation pull on them
Chapter 120: Love at the heart of the fire nation! ..Back at the fire nationAlisha and her group had moved further into the fire nation. This time, Marabel Wes was moving with them as a guide dog. She sniffed the air to get the scent of any variant soldier around and pounced forward on all fours, running and sniffing interchangeably, while Alisha led the way ahead of the team. She was using the shortcuts stated on the map as a guide to direct their way and hasten their movements. She was given the map by Elder kali back at the monastery and ever since she had stored it in her storage ring. She only brings it out to verify her journey forward or in case an unfamiliar territory was observed.On the way, they noticed the fire nation was almost empty, devoid of elementals. In fact, they would only see one or two human residential houses at one spot or the other. The humans who found would mostly just keep to themselves and mind their businesses without bothering about who went or
Chapter 121 : The Fire Nation Pheonix!Alisha walked carefully along the path of the stone slab. The fire torches lit the environment as the weather grew dark. The sun was setting and the lightening of the environment changed drastically. Nighttime was approaching and the area was getting dark.The others followed Alisha closely, they trusted in her bond with the fire nation since she shared the blood of the fire nation, and it was confirmed by the strange voice that sounded a few minutes ago.At the end of the path was an arched, red, veiled, door-like entrance. On the arched, red, veiled, door-like entrance was a warning sign written on it. "Only a true fire nation descendants can open this passageway"They all read it and looked at Alisha, expecting her to take the next step. Alisha placed a hand through the veil tentatively. The veil shimmered for a few minutes before dimming and collapsing. A path was open, Alisha first passed through the arched entrance and then beckoned on h
Chapter 122: Bout for the Phoenix blood!After an agreement for a bout had been struck,Alisha stood in a clearing, waiting for the gigantic Phoenix bird to announce her opponent.Suddenly she noticed an ethereal being floated down almost out of thin air. It looked like a male with sleeves flowing to the side. The sleeves were wrapped around a bare chest as he looked majestic.The hair was blazing yellow, the eyes were purely red and white. While the cornea was white, the iris appeared red. His muscles were bulging, like that of a professional weight lifter. It wore a boot-cut type of trouser.There were ethereal flames all around its body. He was floating in the air a few seconds ago and landed on arrival. Not a single sound was made when its feet touched the ground. It connected with the ground as if it was weightless.Alisha's friends were feeling jittery as they discussed in hushed tones. "Is that a flame spirit?" Marabel asked as she stared at the strange-looking man with ethe
Chapter 123: Remarkable finish!Alisha looked at the skin of her exposed lower arm, they were covered in burn marks. She also looked at the flame spirit before her and she decided to stop holding back.She brazenly brandished the sword in her hand as it flittered under the light from the flame of the flame spirit. She then jumped so high, twisting and turning in the air before giving a flying kick to the enraged flame spirit.She didn't stop there, she immediately covered the distance between herself and the flame spirit in a couple of seconds and then used the sword to cut the upper arm of the flame spirit. An orange-red flaming liquid poured out of it. She then used her free hand to send a flame at the flame spirit, the fire burnt the flame spirit's head and caused it intense pain.It was struggling and thrashing wildly, it was distracted by the pains from its burns to notice the approaching Alisha.She swooped in and struck its neck with her sword, she embedded her flames around
