Chapter 216: Phoenix
Chapter 216: Phoenix
Lulu narrowed her eyes listening to Rowen. She can't understand why this guy become so cocky all of the sudden. Although she is one level lower than her brother. She is still a Martial Synchronisation realm expert, many time stronger than a mere true deity.
"No need to be so cocky at the end of your life. It will not change anything. I have decided to kill you now and no one will be able to save you," she said and her eyes closed, taking in a deep breath her body turned still. Even her hairs stopped moving.
'What good focus. Her brother has trained her properly.' Rowen licked his lips in excitement. "Play with me girl. I am bored after all this time." Rowen said and a dagger appeared in his hand. It was Blaze Flame Dagger.
Lulu's sword started glowing red soon enough and then she opened her eyes. They were different. No pupil was seen, only an orange-yellow glow was there. It was like the sun was burning in her eyes.
"Be grateful that you will receive your end with my Blade of Burning Star." She raised her sword over her chest and pointed it at Rowen.
He chuckled at her words. "Fancy..." With that, he disappeared from his place.
"So fast..." Lulu's eyes widened as she quickly turned around gulping her saliva. Rowen was too fast for just a True Deity.
Her blade and his Dagger met with a loud clank and huge amounts of sparks flew all around. "His attack is powerful." Lulu gritted her teeth and swung her right leg from below, fire covering her ankle.
Rowen let out another chuckle and jumped up to dodge her attack. "You are too predictable..." However, just as he said so, two beams of fire came towards him from her eyes. Which made him dodge back in reflex.
He jumped ten steps back and landed gently on the ground, there was an impressed smile on his face. "I underestimated you, for a loudmouth you do have some capability. You will become a fine piece of sex slave," he said and laughed maniacally.
Lulu listened to him and took in a deep breath, standing straight, her body started to relax, she was completely still in her place, extremely focused.
Rowen's eyes narrowed as he found no effect of his words on her. It was like she was in a completely different space. All her focus was on him. However, soon enough words came out of her mouth.
"So you were hiding your powers from the start. But too bad... You are no match for my brother." She said and suddenly a green jade appeared in her hand that she cracked soon enough, even before Rowen could react.
"Although you are stronger than me, my brother will kill you." Her flaming sword spun in her hand and she pointed it at Rowen again.
Rowen was impressed at how her behaviour changed so much, previously she was all arrogant and haughty, however, currently, her demeanour looked calm and composed. Narrowing his eyes Rowen took a step forward and then suddenly disappeared sideways with a swoosh of wind.
'He is not running away even after I have called my brother back? How is he so confident?' She quickly lowered her sword again and moved it in front of her waist on the left side.
Another clank resounded as Rowen appeared at his side, as both of their weapons struck each other again. But this time Rowen's strike contained more power, which left Lulu grunting and sliding five steps back.
Sweat formed on her forehead, as she felt her hands going slightly numb from the previous strike. She looked at Rowen with her eyes narrowed. "Brother!" She yelled as she raised her sword above her head and another even stronger clank resounded, that cracked the ground below her and made her slid even farther back.
She could feel cracks in her torso bones, and even blood started leaking out of the corners of her lips. "Prepare to be my sex slave, don't worry I will treat you nicely if you do just as I say." He jumped back ten steps and disappeared sideways again.
'I can't take this next attack!' Lulu gritted her teeth and tried to move her sword sideways, however, her eyes widened in terror as she felt Rowen coming at her with very high speed. 'I have to use it!' She thought and bit her tongue and with that, she disappeared from her spot.
Rowen attacked at empty air, as he looked around with a surprised expression. 'She disappeared?' He looked and quickly sensed someone above him and then an even wider smile formed on his face.
He could spot her flying in the air, there were large flaming wings on her back and her whole body was on fire. 'A Phoenix?' She looked just like a Phoenix descended from the skies. Looking very majestic.
"Die!" A monstrous voice resounded in the jungle. And Rowen could feel it in his soul. 'She is burning her blood... What a crazy girl.'
Rowen looked at her raising her sword in the sky and dark red clouds started forming over them, with a thunderous shriek of Pheonix resounding in hundreds of kilometres of area.
Rowen had a wide smile on his face. "Good... Very Good... This is what I expect from my future sex slave. Hahaha...!"
"You are not even worthy to be in my presence, lowly scum. Now stop thinking so highly of yourself and die!" Her heavy voice reverberated throughout the forest and then she swung her sword down and with it large flaming boulders formed in the sky that started descending on the ground, with yellow trails.
Rowen's eyes glimmered in front of showering meteors and he started laughing even more loudly. "To think that a Martial Synchronisation realm girl would have such a powerful move..." With his words, he got buried in the fiery meteors, even the five kilometres of the jungle around him got completely incinerated into smoke.
Fire could be seen everywhere, "This is what you deserve for crossing your limits. You could have saved your life if you had decided to run when you still had time..." Blood flew out of her mouth as she completed her sentence.
The fire around her suddenly extinguished and her wings disappeared too, the clouds started clearing and she started falling without any restraints. 'Looks like I consumed too much power...' "Brother... Save..." She pointed her hand at the sky as she was falling.
However, after few seconds she didn't get the impact she was expecting and then a face came into her view that made her smile. "Brother... I killed him. You are proud of me right?"
Lars looked at her pale face and nodded with a smile. "You did great." He said and gently placed her down on a clean surface, he then placed a green pill in her mouth. "Rest here, we will first go back home." He said.
Lulu nodded and then only after few seconds she noticed something strange about Lars's appearance. "Brother, where is your crown?" She asked with a frown.
Lars listened to her and let out a frown. "A powerful lady stole it from me." He gulped his saliva thinking about that red-dressed demon. How could someone as powerful as she is residing in this plane?
A worried expression appeared on Lulu's face. "Are you hurt?"
Lars smiled, "Don't worry, she seemed to only be interested in my crown, she ran away as soon as she got it."
Lulu's face relaxed a bit after listening to his words. "That's great, but what now? That crown was a very precious treasure."
Lars patted her head and stood up. "Don't worry, as long as we are safe, it doesn't matter, even if we lose some treasures, and after all that crown was supposed to save us. In a way, it has served its purpose."
Lulu was feeling still a bit agitated, however, she calmed herself down with her brother's warm words.
"How powerful was this guy?" Lars stood up straight and looked at the destruction around him. Form the amount of power his sister has used, that guy must be strong.
"He was powerful, but as I have killed him, it means he was not a match for you."
Lars turned around and looked at Lulu with a regretful face. "I am the sorry sister that you have to put your life in danger. Even after I promised that I will protect you."
"Don't worry brother, I am still alive and he is the one who is dead. And this fight has made me gain quite a bit of experience. And by the way, you have saved me from that fall didn't you?"
Lars smiled at her words, "you are too kind."
He then looked at the spot Rowen was buried. "I wish I could have tortured him before he died. I wanted him to know, what real pain felt like. For such a pathetic guy to fool us and put my sister to harm." He gritted his teeth as anger flashed in his eyes.
And just as he said this, a red claw suddenly moved out of the charred ground.
