Heaven Destroyer - Chapter 199

Icy wind rustled over the frozen Tonton River. The dark blood that had been splattered all round, already froze, turning into bloody ice crystals over the snow white ice, but the ugly whiff still roamed with the gusty wind, invading everyone’s nostrils. Over them, dark clouds danced. It looked as if I would rain in no time.

Ayaan, Noor, and Isobel stood at the side and watched the battle leisurely and didn’t help two girls as the fight looked almost one side right now, thinking there was no need to give extra help. However, Ayaan had still warned his companions to be ready as he did not want this Bastard Luan to escape due to their carelessness.

“Ahh!”

Elder Luan screeched an agonised scream. Ayaan looked and found that while he was busy with Rebecca, Leafwhisk had appeared behind him and slashed his back with her wooden sword, leaving Elder Luan trembling and shivering on the spot in pain and misery. His knees buckled down when the attack landed on his uncovered back, but he reacted nimbly and maintained his distance from his two enemies.

“What are you doing!? Come help me…” Elder Luan shouted and turned around, and his voice trailed off in between and his mouth hung open in shock and disbelief and speechlessly—there was no one, at least not his companion. He scanned the surrounding and found three bodies laid on the ground—two missing their heads, while the last was covered in blood and lying over the frozen red liquid.

“Ho-how?” now he looked fearful and scared and his legs stumbled back as if trying to find the best way to escape. After all he was all alone now, and there were people who could fight him head-on and in the end it would be him who would be defeated, no doubt. However, now three more people were eyeing him like hawks. That made him feel insecure and unsettled in his heart.

“Trying to find a way to escape, heh?” Ayaan chuckled when he saw a distressed and distorted look on Elder Laun’s face. “Old Bastard, just give up. There is no way I will let you escape today.”

“Humph! If you think you can catch me, then you must be dreaming,” sneered an old man and took out something out of his space ring. It looked like a talisman. Elder Luan looked around him at his adversaries and scowled. “Just you wait, I will come, and when I come, you will die a horrible death.” And he crushed the talisman in his hand.

“Heh?” however, what he expected did not happen. His body did not fade, and he did not escape. He was still standing at the same place and was looking at the five figures, with incredulous and confused and bewildered expressions. He looked at the crumbled talisman in his hand and then at his adversaries and his lips trembled, but no sound came out of them. He was dumbstruck with such a development.

“Teleporting Talisman,” sneered Leafwhisk. “You have made quite a good replica from the original that you found in the tower, but it is miles away from being perfect. There shouldn’t be any space ripples when you use this talisman, or teleportation would fail. The maker of this talisman never told you?”

“Who are you?” demanded Elder Luan, but his voice was weak and meek. “It is Heavenly Palace’s secret. How d’you know that? And why did I fail!” his eyes turned red and face covered in sweat. “I am warning you. Don’t make an enemy of Heavenly Palace or you would regret it for your entire life.”

“Threats, threats and even more threats,” Ayaan scowled and sneered. “Do you know what you are looking like right now?” Ayaan paused as if tried to find the right word. “Oh fuck, who cares what you are looking right now. I’m just going to squeeze out every piece of information from your head, anyway.” He cursed when couldn’t find a word he was searching for, a bad vocabulary indeed.

Elder Luan turned around and tried to escape. He couldn’t even run over ten meters when a shadow appeared out of nowhere and a kick landed over his chest, making him stumble and waddle and shamble on his legs before smashing on his arse like a dolt. The man struggled to get up and looked at the attacker. It was a young girl around the age of nineteen, with long silver locks and a beautiful face.

“So you are a space elemental cultivator.” The man mourned at his bad luck. “You were the one who interrupted the teleportation?”

“Indeed,” Noor chuckled.

The man nodded and looked at other people. His eyes shined cruelly and heartlessly. “Though I know I can’t escape today,” he turned again towards Noor. “What makes you think you can?” he chuckled as a vicious glimmer shone his eyes and he lunged at Noor.

“Don’t fight him head-on!” when Noor was about to clash with Elder Laun head-on, she heard Leafwhisk’s shout, though she did not know the reason, she still complied with her wishes and teleportation over fifteen meters away from the old man.

“Booom!!”

Just when she disappeared from her location, a booming sound clattered. The ice underneath them trembled and creaks formed. Ayaan looked ahead where the old man had attacked—the broken pieces of ice-crystals scattered and shambled, the ice of ten meters around him vaporised. Elder Luan’s body once more had been covered in thunder, and he looked like a thunder man. His eyes, though, still red.

“Wh-what!?” Noor looked at the ditch formed due to Elder Luan’s attack and her face turned pale in horror. If she had not listened to Leafwhisk, she might have also broken into pieces like those ice crystals. “What happened?” she asked with a pale face and trembling voice.

“He is burning his life force,” replied Leafwhisk, her eyes shined. “He knows he can not escape, so he wants to die along with us.”
