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
Chapter 124: Level up!Alisha was unconscious, Zain was staring at the Phoenix bird angrily, Lamil knelt beside Alisha's side to see if she was okay, while Marabel just stood there gawking, lost in her own world.After a while of being unconscious, colour started to return to Alisha's face, her frown stopped and everything calmed down. In time, a blazing heat could be felt from her skin. Her body started to radiate a terrifying amount of heat, it was so scary that her colleagues had to back away."What is going on?" Lamil asked as he got farther away from Alisha. He was sweating profusely as he backed away. Zain still had his annoyed face on but he also put some distance between himself and the unconscious body of Alisha.The Phoenix bird remained where it was, not moving an inch, it wasn't affected by the excessive heat radiation coming from Alisha's body in the least, in fact, it appeared that the Phoenix bird seemed to enjoy it even. The temperature kept rising even as she lay in
Chapter 125: Confession or Confusion!Alisha looked and felt terrible, like someone who had eaten something awful. She wasn't happy with all that Zain had had to put up with. She wasn't sure of how she felt. The memories of every single activity that she and Zain had undertaken flooded her mind.She began to see him in another light as she considered each memory, she saw the myriad of sacrifices he had undertaken for her, she saw how he had endlessly thrown himself in danger for her and had never once complained. She remembered the various times that Zain would excuse himself whenever he saw her and Lancelot Jr together. She was in a serious dilemma.She didn't want to push away Zain's feelings as he had been hoarding them for a long time, she also didn't know how to go forward in their relationship. The unspoken conundrum remains, 'should she choose Zain over Lancelot Jr who she had grown up with and are practically like a married couple or should she choose to go over to Zain's s
