463 The Fire Blessed (1/2)
”Mother, I should be the one asking you that…” Gao Lan Mei whispered softly as she allowed her mother to touch her face. She never experienced having a mother in her previous life thus the emotions she was feeling at that moment was indescribable. Regardless, she already vowed to not make this woman cry, and she failed.
The blood tears coming from Li Mao's eyes made Gao Lan Mei feel sad and thankful at the same time. She is thankful that there was another Blessed to help them, but there was also the guilt for not being strong enough to fight on her own.
”I am fine. My eyes are just a small price for us to continue living,” Li Mao replied with a sad smile on her face.
”That is correct. I also don't think that this is a good place for drama.” Blessed Juni commented with indifference, her burning spirit continued to brighten the place they were at. ”Keepers are supposed to sacrifice themselves for the greater good. Stop this nonsense because we do not even have time to save you all.”
Blessed Juni summoned a huge ball of flame and let it float in the middle of the city. Aside from that, a large magical formation appeared under their feet. Pillars of flames rose from multiple sides before sliding down to some corners of the city.
It immediately helped brighten the place, but it still could not remove the dark mist still surrounding them. The impurities seemed to seep into the flame.
”I hate these impurities. They will just eat my flame.” Juni commented with experessation, before asking taunting, ”Elin, are you going to keep watching? I already set up the target but you are making me do the job alone?” She then sent a flaming arrow towards the sky above her ball of fire currently floating in the sky.
Bang!
The sound of ice and fire colliding reached even before any of the two elements reached the area Juni was aiming at. ”Are you looking for a fight at the wrong time?” Juni asked in annoyance as she summoned a fire whip to attack Elin instead.
Pang!
Everyone heard the sound of a whip hitting the ground next to Gao Lan Mie. Petty! Why would Blessed Juni do such a thing during dangerous times?
While the Ice Blessed could just cut off a limb if needed, the Fire Blessed however would attack even her own ally. Could they leave their lives in the hands of these two spiritual beings?
What if Gao Lan Mei was hit by the whip and was injured? What would be the point of her mother sacrificing her eyes to call upon the Blessed?
