Celestial Bloodline
chapter-439

Bia gasped and cried out. She frantically flapped her wings to fly, but before she could, an invisible force held her body in place. Bia used her divine energy and tried to scream, but she couldn't even move.

Yue's eyes widened when she noticed Bia's struggling figure. She stepped forward and tightly grabbed the woman's arm.

"Stop it! What are you doing, Glacia? Don't you dare harm her!"

The woman raised her brow and glanced at the hand tightly gripping her arm. She let out a bored sigh.

"Why did you have to be the one who found and activated the artifact, something that belonged to my deceased master? You don't resemble her at all, nor do you have coral eyes. If I wasn't bound to take the person who found the bracelets with me to the elven planet, I wouldn't even glance at someone as weak as you."

She stared into Yue's eyes, and in the next second, Yue dropped to her knees, gasping under the tremendous weight that descended on her shoulders.

"Listen, young lady. The universe is filled with many pseudo-divine rank individuals. Do you really think you are special?"

"You already promised to go with me when I increased your talent, and believe me when I say, I hate it the most when people go back on their words."

Glacia clicked her tongue. She only helped the elven woman in front of her because Yue activated something that belonged to someone precious to her. After all, it's not like the elven planet lacks people with talent. So why would she want someone from such a small and weak planet?

It's just been a long time, that's why she forgot about the old artifact, and now she has to handle this mess.

Regardless, she gave Yue time so the woman would willingly go with her to avoid any further drama. But in the end, she still has to force it. How troublesome.

"We are leaving now. I have wasted enough time on this planet."

Yue closed her eyes for a second and took a deep breath to control her emotions.

'No, if I try, maybe I can make her stay a little longer... Yeah, I can do it!'

Glacia saw through her easily and coldly glanced at the place where she sensed another pseudo-divine rank person the moment she stepped inside the room.

"Or else I will have to do something that I don't think you will like at all."

Yue tried to grab the woman with a panicked expression, thinking that the latter was going to harm Bia. But to her surprise, Glacia didn't harm the phoenix.

Instead, one of the distant bookshelves was pushed back, causing all the books to scatter on the ground.

The air shook, and in the next second, two surprised cries rang out in the room as Nine and Elli were both dragged out from behind a transparent curtain. Glacia looked at the brown-haired man and ignored the woman beside him.

"Oh, a merman. It's pretty rare to come across one with such pure spiritual eyes these days. Especially since the last mer-planet got destroyed by the first shadow general."

Yue gazed at Nine and Elli, who were struggling to breathe under the invisible pressure that held them tightly to the ground.

"What are you two doing here!?"

She shouted at the duo, breathing raggedly, but didn't get an answer because the two of them couldn't speak under the tremendous pressure. Bia also cried out when her body was lifted in the air before Glacia stared at her with narrowed eyes.

'It's a phoenix. It's already unusual to see one with so much divine essence on a small planet... but I can also sense something powerful in its body?'

The woman was about to examine Bia's body, but her thoughts were interrupted when Yue spoke again, this time with a pleading voice.

"Wait, wait! Let them go! Okay, okay, I'll go with you. Just please, let them go!"

Nine and Elli gasped when the pressure around them finally disappeared. Bia also let out a breath as she regained control of her body. The phoenix surprised the woman by growing in size and unleashing a high-pitched cry.

-"How dare you! Who do you think you are to harm me and the others! Wahhhh!"

Crimson flames scattered inside the room, setting the books and wooden furniture ablaze. The phoenix quickly flew towards the ceiling, aiming to shatter it.

After hearing the conversation between the woman and Yue, Bia knew Kyle had to be here because there was no way she could defeat the woman with her current strength.

However, before the phoenix could touch the ceiling, someone grabbed her neck and threw her toward the bookshelves. Glacia furrowed her brows in annoyance, and the flames inside the room vanished under her pressure.

"I really hate it when someone screams and this thing has been continuously getting on my nerves. Now, finally it will be quiet."

Bia's vision turned blurry when something powerful enveloped her senses. The last thing she heard was Yue's panicked and loud voice before she lost consciousness.

Glacia looked at the phoenix and then glanced at Yue, Nine, and Elli who gathered around the phoenix, trying to wake her up.

"It's not dead, so stay quiet. Yue, show me the bracelets because now I'm losing my patience."

Yue paused and looked at Bia. She grabbed the hem of her dress tightly, and her eyes started to well up with tears, even though she tried her best not to cry. In the end, she still felt so powerless.

However, strangely the person who stirred up the strongest emotions within her was none other than Kyle.

'We were just getting closer and now this has to happen. I know he is going to get mad at me...'

She took a deep breath and extended her wrists towards the woman.

Glacia touched the bracelets, and they scattered into countless bright particles before everyone's eyes. The whole room shook, and after a few seconds, the particles came together to form a portal that was shining with a white hue.
