Chapter 403 (2/2)
Ye Lang fired straight at the shadow. It wasn’t a magical grenade, it was a huge net!
Almost no one thought he would succeed because so far even the best fighters hadn’t been able to catch an opponent who was travelling using the Shadow Flight magic.
They couldn’t even catch up!
What happened next was out of their expectations…
Ah…
There was a surprised squeal and the shadow stopped. The shadow shrank back to a point where Mia was.
Everyone stared at the field, speechless. Mia was caught in the net! Unbelievable!
“You! How is this possible? How did you catch me?” she asked in disbelief. Although she was currently trapped in a net, she still couldn’t believe what just happened.
“What’s so difficult about it? I only had to calculate the length of your path, your speed, then calculate when you arrived at which point and the speed my net travels. That’s it!” he explained slowly as he approached Mia.
“...” She fell silent. It sounded so easy but all of it had to be done in one second.
Mia felt like she wouldn’t be able to do it. Maybe not even anyone else on this land.
“Alright, you’ve lost! Admit defeat!” he said with a chuckle. His eyes weren’t on her face, they were somewhere else.
“??” She didn’t understand but there wasn’t time to think. “Do you really think it’s over just because you caught me? You’ll regret standing so near me! Black Fire--- Eh? This net…”
Mia was about to cast a magical attack at Ye Lang. Although she was caught in the net, her magical abilities should still be functional, Ye Lang was almost close enough to touch!
That was true if the net was a regular net…
Once she attempted to fire, she confirmed that it was indeed not a regular net because she could not cast any spells. It felt like her magical powers were locked up.
“You don’t have to try, this net blocks magic. Yield or I’ll pluck all your feathers!” Ye Lang was already reaching for her wings.
“Ah… Alright, I yield! Don’t touch my feathers!” Mia admitted defeat immediately. She did not want Ye Lang to have an excuse to pluck her feathers.
Immediately after, she was furious to realise it did not work at all.
“Alright, let’s go watch the show then…” said Ye Lang as he retracted his net. He kept the net in a second, no one saw how it looked like.
“Ah? You jerk, you took more feathers again!” she roared.
Everyone was confused. They didn’t see him do anything. He never touched her wings, why did she say that?
“Fuck, how did you know? I was quick too!”Ye Lang leapt and quickly distanced himself from her as if afraid she was going to take revenge.
“I wouldn’t have known if I couldn’t sense the number of feathers I have! I can’t believe you took 9 more feathers!” Mia was as angry as she was confused. She didn’t know how Ye Lang took the feathers either.
“The weather’s great today, I think I promised to meet Xuan Yuanbing for tea, I’ve got to go!” Ye Lang stared up at the sky as if nothing happened.
