Celestial Bloodline

Elder Han looked at the vial of green-colored potion offered to him, and his lips curved into a smile.

"I just saw my life flashing before my eyes."

He sighed and a similar vial appeared in his hand. He shook the vial in front of Kyle.

"Did you forget that potions are one thing your master never lacks?"

Kyle raised an eyebrow but then shrugged his shoulders. The potion in his hand disappeared and he waved his hand at the old man.

"Go rest, I can sense you're running low on mana. I'll take care of things here."

Han chuckled and moved back with a nod. Kyle's eyes traveled downward, observing the countless people engaged in battle with the monsters. As a few eyes stared at him, he vanished into thin air.

In the next second, his figure reappeared behind the second wild boar, which had paused after he kicked the first one into the forest.

"Fear..."

He mumbled under his breath, causing the boar and all the surrounding monsters to freeze in place as if sensing a dangerous enemy.

In an instant, the air trembled, and countless ice spears materialized in the sky, almost overshadowing the land below.

Kyle's eyes glowed with a faint light, and before the boar and the other monsters could break free from their frozen state, the spear shot out with lightning-fast speed, piercing through the air.

The people fighting in front were startled when they saw the number of spears raining down from the sky. But as they blinked, the spears pierced through the bodies of each monster who was under the fear skill, one by one.

The monsters wanted to cry out, but only muffled cries rang out on the battlefield as their bodies dropped to the ground, with a loud thud.

The one who screamed the loudest was the wild boar, as many spears penetrated its body from all directions with their razor-sharp tips.

The boar's eyes closed, and it dropped to its knees as it took its last breath. In an instant, the air turned cold as the ice spears scattered into many fragments and dispersed in all directions, harming the other monsters nearby.

Kyle floated around. He raised his leg and kicked the already dead wild boar's body back deep into the forest.

The boar's body crashed into the trees and tumbled backward at a fast speed. The other boar, who was coming out, froze in its tracks as it looked at its companion's body.

For a few seconds, a deadly silence enveloped the air as the monsters and all the fighting individuals stared at the silver-haired man floating mid-air.

Nine let out a chuckle, he started floating and clicked his tongue.

"Show off."

Kyle's ears twitched. He turned around and glanced at the familiar face he hadn't seen for a while. He raised his brow, and his lips curled into a smirk.

"How about you kill the other wild boar? It's coming out..."

His sentence was cut short because Nine turned around and disappeared into the crowd without looking back.

Kyle blinked, and his figure vanished again, only to reappear behind the other wild boar. A chill ran down the boar's spine. It cried out, and many earth spikes appeared behind its back. However, after hearing no voice for a few seconds, it turned around and glanced back, but the human was nowhere to be seen.

The boar let out a growl, but then it looked down at the bloodied tip of the sword sticking out from its chest, its eyes dilated. Blood oozed from its mouth, and its eyes rolled back.

Kyle grabbed the sword handle and yanked it back, raising a small dust cloud in the sky as the boar's body dropped to the ground.

He furrowed his brow as he waved his precious sword to clean the blood off it.

'I don't know if I'll find any more high-rank weapons, so it's better if I take utmost care of this one.'

He sighed and vanished from his spot again.

In the distance, King Cedric breathed out as he stopped another attack from one of the Inferno Cats. He panicked a little when a figure materialized beside him.

A sigh escaped the King's lips as he saw Kyle. He had seen how the silver-haired kid fought and killed two strong monsters so easily.

The two Inferno Cats froze in their spots when the duo saw the silver-haired human who had killed the boars. They glanced at each other, and before Kyle could attack them, the duo ran away in different directions.

"Huh?"

Kyle stared at their backs. He could have easily caught them, but it's probably best if he didn't venture too far from the border. Not until the others arrived.

He turned around and glanced at the injured golden-haired man who looked a lot like Carcel. With a nod, he offered a healing potion.

Cedric chuckled and shook his head.

"My storage ring is filled with these things, save it for the future."

Kyle blinked and stared at the potion bottle. He couldn't help but think that maybe something was wrong with the potion, that's why no one was taking it from him.

Secretly, he placed the particular potion vial away from the others in his mind space and vanished from his spot again.

His figure appeared in the middle of the crowd, and blue flames scattered in all directions. The flames didn't harm the humans and other soldiers but only enveloped the many monsters attacking the border.

The monsters cried with panicked eyes as their bodies turned into ice sculptures. The air that had been cold turned even colder when the flames appeared. In the next second, the ice sculptures crumbled into bright particles and vanished into thin air.

Kyle wanted to use instant teleportation again, but a familiar voice echoed in his head. He raised his head and saw Bia's huge figure soaring in the sky.

-'You really had the guts to leave me with that little monster, huh? It would have died in my hands if not for Yue stopping me in time!'

Kyle chuckled, and many eyes traveled towards the phoenix soaring through the air. They watched with awe as the beautiful fire phoenix flew across the sky.

After Bia, Alec also appeared in the sky. He glanced down and let out a sigh. In the next second, his figure flashed, and he landed beside Kyle.

"It seems you cleared the most dangerous monsters."

Kyle nodded.

"It's safe for the time being, but the monster lord hasn't shown up yet. Anyway, did you all take care of the pack of monsters who attacked us?"

Alec's lips trickled upward in an evil smile.

"If me and the others had stopped to take care of all of them, it would have taken me more time to arrive. So, we all decided to leave Jian behind to handle the mess he created."

Kyle smiled at his words and pointed at the monsters, indicating that they had a lot of work to do.

Alec nodded, and the duo immediately jumped into battle. The crowd was stunned because, just like Kyle, Alec also killed countless monsters with a single attack.

The phoenix soaring in the sky also joined the battle. After only a minute, Yue, Regius, Lara, Mia, Carcel, and all the others except Jian arrived as well. The battlefield quickly became even more chaotic as the new arrivals swiftly took care of the monsters.

In the distance, Nine smirked as he watched them fight. He turned back when someone tapped his shoulder slowly.

Neon stared at his face with a curious expression.

"The one with silver hair, is it Kyle?"

The corner of Nine's eyes trickled upward with mirth.

"He's... maybe?"

He laughed when Neon's face fell. Ray, who was standing behind Neon, grabbed his shoulder with a smile.

"How could you not recognize your little brother? It's definitely Kyle!"

Neon let out a groan.

"I know... but it's unbelievable. He has gotten so strong in such a short time. Also, what happened to his hair and eyes?"

The two brothers conversed about Kyle's appearance when Nine joined in.

"Don't worry, the change won't harm him. I don't know the reason, but I guess it's related to the special flames he's using."

Neon blinked, gazing at the blue flames around Kyle's body, and nodded.

Nine hummed, he suddenly noticed Ray's injured shoulder and extended his hand.

"Let me cure your injury. I have a healing skill. It's better than a potion."

Ray nodded, and Nine placed his hand on his shoulder. Nine's eyes glowed for a second, and a thread of mana emerged from his hand. After a few seconds, the injury on Ray's shoulder vanished into thin air.

Nine smiled and wanted to retract his hand, but he froze when a few images flashed at the back of his head.

"?"

The golden threads in his eyes trembled violently, and both Ray and Neon panicked when blood started pouring from his eyes and mouth. But Nine raised his hand to stop them, with a horrid expression.

"I'm fine... but Kyle is in danger!"
