Chapter 584 (2/2)
Lan Jue and the Driver exchanged confused looks
Did she say she ate the Driver?
The odd, beautiful young wo Then, without warning, her hand shot out to grab at the Driver’s chest Her arht that emstone
Once ripped the Driver It felt like every nerve and blood vessel froze solid, going so far as to make his movements jerky and uncoordinated However, the Driver was not the Bartender Lan Jue wasn’t the only one who’d gotten stronger after the Great Adept Tournament
He bit the tip of his tongue, the sharp pain sharpening his focus A blast of silver lightning erupted from him Taiyin thunderbolts slithered over him from head to toe as he let loose a feral roar His Discipline surged into his chest where it becaht
The Driver coalesced his power into a pure barrier The undulating line of silver was all that stood between hi hand
When theylike it was paper Errant bolts of lightning arcs into the sky only to disappear, others found their way to both the Driver and Lan Jue
The wo directly, a slave to instinct Each strike was heavy with lethal power, so much that everyone was almost too startled to speak
But Lan Jue was prepared Just as she lashed out for the Driver, Lan Jue’s hand flashed red Captus appeared in his grip He swept his hand alently to the side, but what issued from the weapon was a rift of intense interdiht for the woman
She had no option but to retract that horrifyingly long arm Her palm shot out instinctively to deflect the blow
Poof! The interdimensional rift caused by Captus shuddered and made the world before them warp uncomfortably Lan Jue felt the space around him constrict, and it was then he realized She was not only deflecting his attack, but counter-attacking as well He reeled back a few steps
Lan Jue grit his teeth and forced hiround, not even an inch row bold and attack with all her strength It wasn’t just his life on the line, or the Driver’s They had ten units of soldiers ould be deciot passed them
The Monarch’s eyes blazed, as reddish-golden light erupted from hiripped Captus with both hands and thrust himself forward blade first
The young woman’s wide eyes couldn’t co face But through all of that, there was nothing violent No fear or rage Instead he saw confusion She seemed almost pitiful
Lan Jue grit his teeth and steeled his nerves He would not be dissuaded by the enchantment of her eyes After what he witnessed, what he felt, how could she be considered pitiful on any level?
The red light around Captus blazed Along its blade runes shi+mmered archaically A column of reality collapsed where he pointed
The Driver had been ready to join forces with Lan Jue He reether They could rely on that to contend with this surprise eneht of Captus, felt the flood of power that caer needed
He dissolved into a bolt of silver lightning and retreated Staying behind he was only good as a spectator This fight was above his pay grade
Just then the sparkling hull of Zeus-1 came into view Without delay, its traction bea up the Division soldiers Inside, one of the bridge et All the while the woman never noticed She never took her eyes away fro at her
She won’t defend? So stirred in Lan Jue’s chest Just as it seemed the blade would impale her Lan Jue stopped dead The woman’s brows furrowed prettily for a moment, then she smiled
She was visually perfect Even under these circuers, soft as spring onions, pinched Captus’ tip between theainst an impenetrable barrier Captus couldn’t move an inch
She could stop a Banishi+ng Blade, with her fingers alone?
Lan Jue stared at her, too shocked to say or do anything
She tilted her head to the side as she regarded hier Lan Jue and Captus were flung a hundredto earth
The Banishi+ng Blade flickered and shuddered of its own accord Lan Jue’s expression could only be defined as stupefied
Since accepting Captus, Lan Jue’s power had reached previously unknown heights Until now, he had e Never did he think he’d encounter so the sword’s power – it was one of the Banishi+ng Blades!
