34 Song Yue vs The Four Cardinals (1/2)

Emily's eyes narrowed as she realized who the woman was and she involuntarily said: ”Lady Song Yue?!?”

The woman in black smiled enigmatically and jumped off the tombstone, her body flashed to the ground a few meters away from Emily.

”It really is you! Xia Yunyi is looking for you, thank god you're alive!” Emily said as she let out a sigh of relief. Her father had contacted her a few weeks ago giving her another new directive, find Song Yue as soon as possible.

Song Yue or as she was known in the Verulyim kingdom, Nesilia. Was a cultivator sent to them by the head of the Song clan. She was meant to be both a diplomatic tool but her visit to the west was also a tempering journey.

'Yunyi, he could help but...' Nesilia thought to herself as she pressed her lips together.

Nesilia wanted to escape from Ye Yuyan's clutches but at the same time, she didn't. She had already gained a lot just by following him this far and has learned so many secrets of the world. Even if she did have Yunyi, would that be enough to deal with Ye Yuyan?

Especially since he still had a seal over her grimoire, he had placed that seal back when she loaned it to him. Ever since then she hadn't been able to activate it without Ye Yuyan's tacit consent.

”Don't worry I am quite fine.” Nesilia smiled coyly as her white aura grew like flames.

Suddenly a burst of white mist enshrouded Emily and her companions, Cardinal black's body bulged as he unsheathed his sword shooting out a black beam of energy.

”Don't hurt her!” Emily yelled anxiously as Cardinal black's sword beam flew out slash apart the mists towards Nesilia.

Nesilia's white aura burst through the mists and what was revealed left everyone dumbfounded. Nesilia stood still as the black sword beam clashed against her aura unable to cut through.

”Impossible!!!” Su Yan said wide-eyed as his eyes filled with shock. Augurs were known for their weak battle power especially against knights since a knight's energies have no relation to slaughter qi.

Nesilia eyes glazed over as they flashed with white light, the sword beam dissipated into nothingness from her gaze leaving everyone in shock.

”Lady Song Yue, if that demon is threatening you we can protect you.” Emily said as she probed for answers but Nesilia went silent.

”World of the Divines!” Nesilia coldly intoned, her voice forced the white mists to seethe violently. From the mists emerged an eagle, it flew to the skies ascending with each flap of its wings.

Then a sparrow emerging following, then a gull, and geese. More and more creatures of the sky emerged filling the sky up with the white forms of divine creatures.

”Scram of me!” Su Yan roared as the mists tried to engulf them, he released a powerful yellow light that caused distortions in the air.

The white mist seethed trying to force through but it still failed, Nesilia focused her attention on forming the birds as the last of the mists become a bluebird that flew onto her shoulder.

”Your Highness, we can detain her.” A little boy in green robes said as he unsheathed a green sword.

”I agree with Cardinal Green, your highness. Let us capture her with our formation.” The woman in blue robes said as she grabbed her blue longsword.

”I think we can more than handle her.” The red robed man sneered as he removed a red longsword from his back.

”Be sure not to harm her and Cardinal Black, you need to hold back.” Emily commanded as a golden aura burst from her body.

”Four Cardinal Directions formation!” She yelled as her dress swayed with a golden aura, the hems of her dress shined with red, blue, green, and black as four swords burst out.

The four swords pointed north, south, east, and west. Each swordsman took their place green was east, blue was west, the north was black, and south was red.

”Four swords unite!” The yelled all together as their sword forces united into a four colored formation.

”How impudent!” Nesilia said as she pursed her lips, they talk of capturing her as if she had no strength at all.

”Attack!” She commanded as the divine clouds flew down like swords onto the Cardinals. The four cardinals auras blended together as they went towards the center of the formation.

The blue-robed woman took the lead as her blue aura burst from her body like a sea, she roared to the incoming clouds: ”Synchronize! First Sword: Boundless seas!”

The sword forces at the center of the formation transformed into an immeasurable sea. The sea burst through the skies slamming into the divine clouds. Nesilia's expression hardened as she raised her right hand towards the divine clouds and coiled them around the boundless sea.

”Burst!” Cardinal Blue said as she gritted her teeth. The boundless sea lost form as it burst apart shooting blue sword forces everywhere.

Nesilia's right arm twitched hard as she lost control of the divine clouds and suddenly the mist lost its shape. The remnant blue sword forces fell to the earth like rain filling the valley with blue motes of light
