Celestial Bloodline
chapter-704

Zhask and Galdor's faces lit up when they heard Kyle confirm that he was indeed the nature's favorite! Instantly, their demeanor toward the human shifted, and they smiled broadly at him before Zhask hurriedly answered his question.

"We know everything about you thanks to elder Hal, because this planet is under the

supervision of elder Hal's wife, who is one of the seven supreme rank elders currently fighting the shadow generals!"

Kyle blinked at the mention of elder Hal. The name sounded very familiar, and it suddenly clicked when he recalled the supreme rank old man who had battled alongside him in the Sacred Divine Land some time ago.

"Are you both talking about Old Hal? The one who oversaw the Gladiator Arena?

He paused for a second.

"He has a wife?"

This was the only fact that surprised him and Bia because they didn't think the old man would have a wife... much less one who was as powerful as he was.

Zhask nodded at him and pulled out a communication crystal with excitement.

"A while back, we received news that elder Hal has been looking for you! We need to inform him that you are here- !"

His words were abruptly cut off as Kyle disappeared from his spot and snatched the crystal from his hands. Then, under the shocked gaze of everyone present, he crushed the crystal into dust.

Kyle's expression grew serious as he glanced at the two old demi-humans.

"I hope my location isn't disclosed to anyone, especially since currently I have many enemies. What if they all come here for me... and I accidentally destroy this planet just to eliminate them?"

Everyone was left dumbfounded by his words as they quickly grasped what the human was implying. He wanted them to keep his presence on their planet a secret, or else he would destroy their planet and make it look just like an accident.

The twins standing behind Zask and Galdor inhaled sharply as the atmosphere in the enclosed space grew tense.

They had heard about the nature's favorite from their elders; he was the first human to slay one of the shadow generals, a feat that no one else had managed to achieve.

Both Logan and Mason held profound respect for him, understanding that anyone in the universe who knew of Kyle revered him for his extraordinary strength. But they never expected him to be so... different from their imagination.

They had envisioned him as a hero, someone who had risen to combat the darkness, and they aspired to be just like him. But how wrong they were; he was not like that at all. From his demeanor up till now, they realized that he was merely a powerful man who cared only for himself, willing to eliminate anyone who dared to cross him.

It was safe to say that the twins' expectations of the nature's favorite had shattered into pieces.

Kyle noticed the sudden stares directed at him and shifted his gaze toward the twins, who this time did not flinch away. Instead, the two brothers stared back at him with expressions of betrayal.

'What's with them?'

Zhask and Galdor were both uncertain whether to tell Hal, who was searching for Kyle, that the human was on their planet or to keep this information to themselves. But, considering the human's strength and his obvious threat, the two old men decided to keep it under wraps for

now.

Regardless, only they and the twins behind them were aware of Kyle's presence on the planet, so it shouldn't be too challenging to prevent the news from leaking out.

After a brief discussion with Galdor, Zhask turned to Kyle with a sigh.

"Alright, we will keep your presence here a secret. But you should reach out to elder Hal since he is searching for you."

Kyle nodded and suddenly glanced at the purple crystal floating in front of him-the very artifact Zhask had taken out earlier.

He noticed various symbols on the crystal and reached out to grasp it. Instantly, Zhask and Galdor shouted for him to stop, but his hand was quicker, and before the duo could do anything, he seized the crystal.

The two old men paled as a powerful array erupted from the crystal to trap Kyle.

"Oh no!"

However, to their surprise, instead of being startled or fearful, Kyle simply regarded the array trapping him with curiosity in his eyes. Their eyes widened in shock as he calmly touched a weak spot within the array.

Instantly, the array surrounding the human shattered into particles. The crystal in his grasp lost its color and turned white.

Kyle watched the swirling particles fade around him and casually tossed the crystal to Zhask, who was staring at him in a daze.

"Not bad for a trapping array. However, the weak points in the array are quite apparent, so anyone with knowledge of arrays can easily escape it."

Zhask stared at the white crystal in his hand with a blank expression. Wasn't the array on this crystal crafted by one of their best array masters? That array master had claimed that the array within the crystal could even trap a supreme rank!

Glador muttered under his breath as he glanced at the white crystal.

"Really...? Is it that weak?"

Kyle simply shook his head and moved toward one of the walls surrounding him.

"And this space... I could have easily disappeared from here using teleportation, but I was intrigued by how you two created this place. So, I have been investigating; guess what I found?"

Everyone's mouths fell open when he suddenly touched the wall before him, causing the space they were in to tremble slightly before it began to vanish. Zhask's startled voice rang out behind him.

"How can you do this? This small separate dimension was created with the help of a powerful

artifact!"

Kyle shrugged at his words.

"The artifact was simply weak. It operated on spiritual energy, and I merely cut off the source of power. It's not that hard."

The space beneath him lit up with countless symbols he had created while conversing with the

duo.

The two elders and the twins watched in shock as the walls around them vanished and the surroundings began to shift.

In the next second, everyone found themselves standing inside the lobby of the hotel Kyle had

entered earlier.

Instantly, the attention of the many people in the lobby shifted to the five individuals that

had materialized out of nowhere.

Some in the lobby recognized Zhask and Galdor, known for their efforts in protecting the city, and they began to converge around them to extend their greetings.

Kyle clicked his tongue and quickly retreated as he noticed the crowd around the two old men growing. He disliked noise and being surrounded by too many people.

Just as he was about to leave the area, he spotted the twins slipping away from the hotel. A wicked glint flickered in his eyes.

"If I remember correctly, I gave them a storage ring filled with mana stones and treasures.

How dare they run away before completing their task as guides?"

He looked at Zhask, who flinched at the sound of his voice echoing in his mind.

'I'm taking the twins because I need to ensure they don't tell anyone about me. Don't worry, I

will send them back alive.'

Zhask quickly shouted at the people gathered around him to disperse, but Kyle had already

left the lobby.

He sighed under his breath, feeling a bit anxious for the twins. They were both excellent students... what a pity that they had to suffer because of him.

Outside the hotel building, Logan and Mason cautiously glanced back when they noticed a shadow above them, only to see Kyle's floating figure behind them. They laughed dryly, discreetly searching for the two elders who should have been dealing with this human, before Logan's gaze wandered to a far-off place.

"Oh, I just remembered that we need to report back to the mission hall since we were out on a

mission in the first place!"

He bowed toward Kyle.

"I suppose we should take our leave for now, esteemed nature's favorite. It was a pleasure to

meet you."

Mason gave him a thumbs-up in his heart, but just as the duo was about to run off, Bia's loud

voice echoed in their minds.

-'Who gave you permission?'

Instantly, the duo froze in place, sweat trickling down their foreheads, completely unaware of how the phoenix was laughing at their reaction internally.

- 'Wow! I just raised my voice, and they are acting like I'm about to kill them!' Kyle shook his head at the phoenix, amusement dancing in his eyes, before turning to the twins. He pointed at the storage ring Logan was wearing.

"That ring. You two need to cater to my needs until I have used all the mana stones and

treasures inside it. After that, you two are free to go wherever you want."

Logan and Mason exchanged glances. They hadn't yet examined the contents of the ring due

to the situation, so they thought what Kyle just told them would be quite easy. However, when Logan finally checked the storage ring, he nearly fainted on the spot.

Firstly, it was a supreme-rank ring, and secondly, the mana stones and items inside were actually worth enough to sustain their entire city for many years!

Mason caught his twin before he could fall and blinked in confusion as Logan mumbled

through a tearful laugh.

"We're doomed..."
