Chapter 178: A Practitioner Is Never Late, He Arrives Exactly When He Means To

(Brendan POV)

Ok… Sylphy is behind me. Check.

We're alone in an isolated area of the Sect. Check.

There's a giant monster that can easily rip us to pieces that we currently do not have the means of fighting back against standing right in front of us. Check.

Now, what would be the most sensible thing to do in this sort of situation?

"HELP! THE WENDIGO IS IN THE GARDEN AND WE'RE BEING ATTACKED!" I screamed as loud as I could.

Spurred by my voice, the Wendigo lunged towards us, one of its giant arms swinging through the air towards me.

Sylphy tried to blast it back with a wall of air like she had done before, but this time, it was too close for it to be effective.

Though the wind was insufficient to blast it back, it was still able to slow it down enough for me to summon a ball of water to protect us from its strike.

The Wendigo's arm struck my barrier, the shockwave was enough to blast both Sylphy and I off our feet.
