The 99 guards soon surrounded me completely, but were all wary of getting closer. I smirked at their cowardice, and adjusted my cloak.
"Immobilize him first!" a guard yelled out.
"Level Three Water Magic - Aquatic Binding!" six others chanted at the same time.
However, I was unfazed, and merely chuckled. "It's useless."
I raised my arm, and the ropes of water heading towards me all converged into one point. They were absorbed by my hand with ease. I licked my lips. "Delicious."
"Wha...what the hell?!"
"Did he just nullify our magic?!"
"No...it was more like he absorbed it?!"
Seeing the guards' reactions, I sighed. "Is that all you've got?"
"Grahh! I don't believe it!" one of the guards shouted. "Level Three Earth Magic - Asteroid Torrent!"
...Cyclxne here.
Dark chapter, huh? I sure as hell felt dark while writing this. The first stage of Xuan Kai's revenge is complete. The only one left now, is Xuan Yang (and Plague). I tried to make this chapter as exciting and detailed as possible. It was very hard to write, to be honest. I had to go back and edit many many things.
But now you guys see - this is the badass side of Xuan Kai. Counting down the number of people left he has to kill...edge lord confirmed. If you guys are wondering how Xuan Kai looks like in this chapter, just imagine the cover of this book, except set in a raining night. Not sure if that'll help, but hopefully it does.
Oh, and also, I purposely made it rain. I'm not sure if you all still remember, but...the night his parents were killed, it was raining as well. Interesting, huh?
Anyway, that's all from me for now.
And as always, I'll see you guys in the next chapter.
