Celestial Bloodline - Chapter 640: If you can't finish them, I will
A complex emotion surfaced in Kyle’s eyes, and his chest constricted briefly as he took the flower from Carcel’s hand.
“Thanks…”
He whispered softly, and Carcel was taken aback when he accepted it. A smile graced the golden-haired man’s face. Kyle never accepted anything from anyone, claiming his mind space held countless treasures. Thus, he felt pleased that the man finally accepted something from him.
Kyle snapped his fingers, and a portal materialized in front of Carcel.
“You should go and use the platform. I believe Jian mentioned it to you, right?”
Carcel nodded and headed towards the portal. Just before stepping in, he glanced back at the silver-haired man.
“And what about you?”
Kyle shifted his gaze from the flower in his hand to look at him.
“I still need to locate the others. I will catch up with you and the rest shortly.”
With a nod, Carcel vanished into the portal. Kyle tilted his head at the flower in his hand and delved into his mind space, noticing a collection of familiar flowers inside.
“I have many similar flowers in my mind space. I wonder where I got them. They are evoking a rare sensation in me… the feeling of losing someone significant…”
He threw the flower into his mind space and vanished in another direction.
His earlier mischievousness faded as he remembered a forgotten memory triggered by the flower. In that memory, someone instructed him to acquire this flower to rescue some people…
“I wonder if I successfully saved them? Yue didn’t tell me I lost anyone close to me. So, I probably saved them.”
He expanded his scent perception skill in every directions. The pressure on his mind intensified as the lost treasure tomb was hundreds of times larger than the tombs he had explored in the Sacred Divine Land.
After a while, he paused above an elevated platform and glanced down at a group of people fighting Sinon, demanding him to give them everything he held. There were two elves, four demi-humans, two humans, and one person from the lizard race.
Kyle disappeared from his spot and reappeared beside the winged man. A powerful aura emanated from his body, pushing back all the people around the winged demi-human. “You need a hand?”
Sinon’s eyes widened with relief when he saw him, but the ones who had surrounded the winged man paled after seeing Kyle. They recognized the silver-haired man!
The group of people around the duo scrambled to flee, but their eyes widened in fear as an immense pressure bore down on their shoulders, forcing them to their knees. Sinon let out a
sneer.
“It’s good you’re here, Kyle! These bunch of bastards surrounded me when they saw me and recognized me! They said if I’m the friend of nature’s favorite, I would probably have many good treasures! Damn, I thought I was really done for! Like 1 versus 9? Four of them are even transcendent rank!”
Kyle shot a cold glare at the group of people kneeling around him, causing the air around him to chill.
Sinon quit his complaining as he felt the temperature shift.
“Hey… bro, don’t accidentally turn me into an icicle, okay? I’m right here too.”
He shut his mouth tightly when he heard Kyle’s next words.
“Kill them.”
Sinon’s expression turned solemn. He opened his mouth to say that they should pardon the group since he wasn’t actually injured, but Kyle glanced at him with an emotionless expression.
“If I hadn’t appeared, they would have killed you, wouldn’t they?”
Sinon stayed quiet as Kyle continued speaking while staring directly at him.
“I am sure they wouldn’t have even hesitated for even a second. After all, the nature’s favorite will never find out they were the ones responsible for your end. Can you still forgive them?”
Kyle turned his gaze away.
“If you can’t finish them, I will. It’s best to deal with these kinds of individuals.”
Sinon clenched his fists and nodded. It’s not that he hadn’t taken lives before. He had ended many… but if they didn’t harm him, he always spared them.
“You’re correct. I will finish them. Just give me a moment.”
The faces of the people around them turned even more pale when they saw the winged demi- human approaching. They were all kneeling and couldn’t move due to the pressure Kyle put on their shoulders, so Sinon didn’t have much trouble swiftly ending all their lives.
Kyle observed everything with a completely neutral expression. After a minute, Sinon glanced back at Kyle with a wry smile.
“There are times… I feel like you have turned really cold. That’s why it’s relieving that you are my friend, not an enemy.”
He moved toward Kyle and raised his hand to shake the silver-haired man’s shoulder. Sinon was a bit surprised when Kyle didn’t move back from his touch.
Kyle blinked and water materialized in the air.
“Clean your hand.”
With a chuckle, Sinon washed the blood off his hand and under his eyes. Blue flames erupted from Kyle’s body before enveloping all the dead bodies around them, turning them into mere particles as if nothing had happened in this place.
Kyle waved his hand and a portal appeared in front of the winged man.
“Go use the platform to increase your strength. Don’t get into trouble again.”
Sinon nodded and entered the portal. Kyle stared at his back for a few seconds and then turned his head toward a certain place cluttered with rocks.
“How long are you guys gonna hide?”
The two transcendent rank demi-humans hiding behind the rocks trembled. They had appeared in this place and had witnessed Sinon being attacked by many people.
However, the two of them didn’t intervene but chose to stay hidden, planning to loot once everyone finished off Sinon.
Who would have guessed that the nature’s favorite would show up and the winged demi- human would effortlessly defeat all the enemies with his assistance?
The duo wanted to run away, but Kyle appeared before them.
“It’s a bad habit to not help those in need.”
He stared at them with an empty expression, and blue flames erupted from his body to envelope the two demi-humans when they tried to attack him, turning them both into
glistening ice statues.
“My flames have gotten stronger.”
Kyle hummed and left the area as the two ice statues dissipated into particles.
