Chapter 110 - 107 : Warning (1/2)
The situation wasn't looking good for Arthur as all the powerhouses arrived. Even a single one of them could deal with him, so for him to deal with all of them is not only impossible, it's absurd!
The arrow's speed is unmatchable even for someone like Jizung, fortunately for the old man, his Black Cobra intercepted the arrow and blocked it before it could strike him.
The Black Cobra seemed to be the main strength of the old man so it wasn't destroyed by this small arrow, nonetheless, it still received quite the damage.
Albeit it is an illusory phantom of the Black Cobra, blood came out from a small hole created from the arrow. The blood was green in color. Jizung's complexions turned paler and he couldn't help but cough a mouthful of blood.
If the arrow hit him, although it's a lot weaker than the last one, it would have damaged him greatly nonetheless, which proves how strong the Heavenly Arrow from earlier. It was fortunate for him or any other leader that Arthur aimed at the elder area of the Royal Cobra Clan. If it was aimed at one of them, it would have been hard to escape unscathed.
Heck! Meyzu was heavily wounded by it although it just passed close to him, such power is not something that can be neglected or blocked.
Void Magic had always been one of the most mysterious laws, not only is it lethal, it is hard to control and even the user can be injured while using it. What's more surprising is that the people that can use it are extremely sparse. It was as apparent as the sun that the Heavenly Arrow was made from Void Magic mainly, that gigantic pit created by its impact is the most indisputable fact.
Jizung had confidence in dealing with Arthur but he still feared the Void Magic, he didn't want to take any risks so he shielded himself with the Black Cobra. It may have injured him but it's way better than receiving the piercing power of the arrow head-on.
...
As Arthur floated silently in the air, 4 beams of unique colors appeared around him. Granny Shishu, Aborak, and Kilan, each of these three leaders appeared around Arthur. Only Bai Lingyue stood a bit farther. It was too late to help Arthur, not only did he kidnap Lissandra, he made all the leaders lose a lot of face and such thing is unforgivable by such people who cares a lot about face.
”Brat! Where is Miya!”
Granny Shishu was not a patient person, when she only saw Arthur and no signs of the silver-haired woman or her granddaughter, a sense of panic and uneasiness surged through her.
Before Arthur could even reply, Jizung's old and angry voice was heard
”That woman took your disciple and Lissandra on the Spirit Boat, if you go now you may be able to catch up.”
Jizung wanted to get Lissandra back but he gave up on that as Arthur simply angered him too much. If he didn't deal with him right now then he better crawl into a hole and never come out of it because of shame.
More than half of his clan's elders disappeared, one of the powerful elders got abducted under his eyes and the banquet he hosted got literally obliterated into black ashes and resembled a bloody battleground currently.
Hearing the answer she was waiting for, Granny Shishu was not willing to listen to Arthur anymore and prepared to chase after Lucy. At such a crucial time, Arthur finally decided to break his silence and speak at last.
”You should be Senior Shishu, right? As long you don't try to obstruct my way, I can promise you that your disciple won't suffer anything.”
Arthur didn't look in his best state, not only was he mentally exhausted, his clothes were a bit disheveled and his grey hair was messy from all the previous fights. It was better to call it a final struggle better than a threat, nevertheless, Shishu didn't chase after Lucy and just stared angrily at Arthur.
”Hmpf! Why should I believe a shameless brat like you? You used me earlier and you could be using me right now too.”
Granny Shishu wasn't like Jizung and co, losing face or whatnot didn't matter as long as Miya was alright. It's true that Arthur caused havoc in the banquet, but if he really would not hurt Miya, for the sake of her granddaughter, she would back off just this time.
”Granny! What are you hesitating for? Don't fall for his threats! Go chase that Spirit Boat and get Miya and Lissandra back, he can't do anything to stop you.”
Jizung's loud voice snapped the old woman out of her daze, she stared at Jizung then shifted her gaze at Arthur, she was still hesitating as maybe chasing the Spirit Boat will lead really lead to Miya's death.
With uncertainty and hesitation, she kept staring at Arthur, who in return just shrugged his shoulders and casually said
”I'm not going to beg you, if you chase the Spirit Boat or try in any way to block me, I can guarantee you that you'll never see that girl ever again.”
Arthur was really not bluffing, if Lucy saw the Granny chasing her, she would not hesitate on killing Miya, the girl may be innocent but that has nothing to do with her, from the very beginning, neither her nor Arthur were kind people. Innocent people die every day.
What's more, if Arthur got captured, Lucy would undoubtedly try to save him but not after she kills Miya and get the information needed from Lissandra. Arthur and she had already discussed this and saving Saly took the utmost priority.
Everyone remained silent and only the dripping blood from Arthur's countless wounds resounded in the surroundings. The Black Cobra was healing at a rapid pace and Granny Shishu kept frowning as she intensely stared at the white-haired man.
After an unknown amount of time, Granny Shishu flicked her sleeve in annoyance and floated near Bai Lingyue, clearly indicating her response.
