Chapter 382 - Caught between the rock and a hard place(Part-3) (2/2)

Frost Flames bit her lips as she spoke, ”I know but what other way do we have other than to try and flush it out, we are already under siege from the nearly inexhaustible army of it.”, she then looked at him as she spoke, ”Can you not use that array of yours.”

Ryuu sighed at that as he spoke, ”I can but I need time to prepare if we could join others we could retreat and may be use it on them, but now.”

Frost Flames nodded at that as she spoke with a sigh, ”I understand.”, she closed her eyes for a brief second before she spoke, ”Brother Ryuu please smoke it out, I will show you why I am called Frost Flames.”

Ryuu c.o.c.ked his eyebrows as he spoke, ”Aren't you getting a bit arrogant?”

Frost Flames shook her head as she spoke, ”Us cultivators are sly by nature we horde our strength until and unless we are forced into corner, there are many amongst us present who are strong incredibly so and amongst them you are there yet unlike them situation has forced you to reveal your true strength and trump cards many times now it is time for make it even.”

Ryuu tilted his head unsure of her motives as he spoke, ”If you say so but please be careful, though I do not remember I gave you permission to say my name so casually.”

Frost Flames flashed him a small smile as she spoke, ”I will be Brother Ryuu, I will be careful and I swear on my pride as a cultivator I will thrive and it might not be today at this very moment but one day I will earn your trust to allow me enough permission to call you as such.”

Ryuu gave her a small nod at that, he enjoyed her company and the fact they could fight extremely well together and in such coordinated manner that he had soft spot for her or the moment she had slapped him he would have killed her and who was he to try to stop someone who was already wagering her pride as a cultivator, ”Multiple talisman appeared, each glowing but unknown to all Ryuu had already placed arrays on it to make everyone think he was activating an array but the truth could was off course from it, what he did in fact was place whatever array needed by touch while others were distracted by the light show.

The arrays sped off towards the darkness as his sword was floating by his side protecting its master while he worked his magic with the array they did not have to wait much longer as another creature jumped out from the whole as the ground exploded with it, what stepped from under the ground was at least as big as a small mansion, it was standing on four legs, with the front two bigger and looked like a as if a knife was tied to it, as for the main body it looked like a worm a very dirty filthy unhygienic looking worm covered in pus and boils, with countless teeth in its circle shaped mouth which was surrounded by multiple eyes, it roared well more like made farting like sound all the creatures gave ups their assault of the duo as they ran towards it surrounding it like obedient soldiers while many more poured out of the hole in the ground, some stayed with her but the vast majority went out to fight those outside of the fiery inferno.

Frost Flames looked at Ryuu as she spoke, ”Brother Ryuu, please step and watch my battle.”

With her piece said she closed her eyes before her tyrannical and bone chilling aura surrounded the area, but to Ryuu it was soothing like a cold drink in hot summer, he watched as her blond hair take a slight bluish-white tinge before she raised her rapier and send a thrust towards the creature, he saw a pale blue semi transparent flame went and struck every creature who tried to shield their leader, they caught fire but instead of getting burned to ash they froze and when they fell to the ground they shattered like tiny crystals Ryuu thought that heat will make them return to normal and they would not only revive but become more again but what was left behind was just wet ash, Ryuu tilted his head as she frowned at that, 'Interesting ability, a flame that freezes instead of burning interesting maybe I should try and replicate it with the help of my understanding of the Dao.', he then looked at the battle raging on as he smirked looking towards the figure of Frost Flames fighting against the enemies, 'So that is why you are called Frost Flames, hmmm you have definitely managed to arouse my interest.'
