Chapter 289: Mess (1/2)
Roar!
A gigantic wind elemental beast, completely passed through the portal and the elemental activity in the area suddenly rose to new heights.
At the other side, another beast had passed through the portal as well, but instead of bathing everything in raging wind currents, like the other one did, there were wild lightning bolts circling around its body that occasionally zapped a guest that tried to run away.
Both of those beasts were Profound Mana initial-stage monsters, but their overall strength was a little higher, since there was a crimson radiance covering the surface of their bodies, that made them stronger and uncontrollable.
The remaining Lion Guardians present inside the golden hall immediately transformed into their animal forms, quickly making their way to the battlefield. Only the Lion Guardian that tried to take care of the fallen Lion Knight, chose to leave while escorting the emotionally unstable madame to the outside.
As he left through a secret passage together with her, he came across with a scene he didn't want to believe. Actually, not even after seeing it with his own eyes, he was able to believe something like that was possible.
The whole sky had turned dark, but the real motive behind that, were the thousands and thousands of aerial creatures circling above them and attacking the cultivators of the Lion's Pride Golden palace on the ground. The scene playing before his eyes, was an apocalyptic scenario where he was sure human had no way of leaving out of this alive.
”Quickly, let's go... We have to leave quickly.” The Third Lion Guardian was about to use his Mana and support their departure from there, when suddenly, a Profound Mana middle-stage Realm Lightning Sparrow took that opportunity to attack him.
The beast body was big, but it didn't stop it from being one of the quickest monsters living inside the territory known as the StormWind Point. Here and there, it was the king, a beast above others.
Katcha!
Lightning cracked and before the Lion Guardian could finish using his technique, he was forced to defend himself from that lightning storm that was approaching. His body started to shine in a golden light and his prestige reinforced his body, allowing him to sustain any impacts coming from that lightning attack. However, he forgot that the lightning element had especially wild and unruly laws.
The lightning didn't limit its destructive power only on his body and unfortunately for Qiao Xuan's wife, while the Lightning Sparrow was clashing against the Third Lion Guardian, lightning snakes found their way towards her.
She didn't have enough time to run and ended up being electrocuted.
”No!” The Lion Guardian's body shone in a golden radiance, creating repelling force. The Lightning Sparrow was forced to retreat, flying away.
The Lion Guardian took that opportunity to run towards the woman, but her body was already lifeless lying down on the ground, with smoke coming out of it. The Profound Mana lightning attack had completely charred her body. Unfortunately for her, her husband had prioritized running after a shadow than protecting the wife.
”What the fuck is happening... The Lion's Pride Golden Palace will take a huge blow if this disorder continues... We going to need the sacred beasts' help; else we might suffer a huge blow.”
The Lightning Sparrow was about to attack once again, but it suddenly felt two Mana Sovereign presences surging in two different areas on the ground. A golden pillar shot towards the sky and from inside of it, two majestic golden lions surged. Their appearance there were so perfect aligned with what the Lion Guadian wished for, that it was as if a god was protecting the sect.
