Chapter 560 We need to have a thorough conversation
Yue looked back at the figure that tapped her shoulder, and her body relaxed when she saw Kyle. A faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips as he pointed down toward the ground and spoke loudly so every elf around him could hear.
"I will create a small opening in my domain. So, enter before it closes."
The elves were puzzled, but Wesley's mouth dropped open in shock because he had sensed the domain earlier!
The old man couldn't believe such a powerful barrier was created by someone of only divine rank! He closed his mouth and wore a solemn expression.
He realized he shouldn't underestimate Kyle, or he might end up making an enemy of a future formidable individual who could very well surpass him in rank. The old man was grateful to his past self for not reacting harshly to Kyle and remaining silent about the young man's seemingly lazy behavior during their walk in the tomb.
Now he understood that Kyle wasn't lazy; the young man was simply trailing the other elves because if he walked among them, he was strong enough to handle all the enemies they faced alone!
Yue gazed at Kyle. Although she had seen his domain before, she was still surprised by how powerful it had become.
As she and the elves watched, Kyle moved a bit downward toward the ground. After he moved, the air in front of him rippled, and then a layer of ice appeared in the air, which parted to reveal the events unfolding within the area isolated from the outside world.
The elves around Yue gasped when they caught sight of a battlefield that had been concealed from their view before. Instantly, many demons and individuals from the dark race who had been attempting to break the icy barrier rushed towards the opening Kyle had formed to breach it.
Wesley, who had just moved to prevent the demons and individuals from the dark race from escaping the barrier, flinched when Kyle clenched both of his fists together and slammed them down towards the approaching individuals.
The force of his attack was sufficient to send those desperately flying towards the opening plummeting to the ground. Kyle then unclenched his fists and turned to gaze back at the stunned elves.
"Now, enter."
Sebastian swiftly took cover behind an elven woman, not even daring to approach Kyle. Alright, he admitted defeat even before facing the human. After all, there was no chance he could withstand a single punch from the man! That very punch had just sent many strong individuals plummeting to the ground...
Kyle gazed at the elves who rushed toward the opening with Wesley one last time, then vanished from his spot only to reappear beside Bia, who was circling Jian.
He extended his hand toward the bird, who flew to him. But he blinked and tilted his head down when instead of sitting on his shoulder, Bia landed on his head.
"Huh?"
She tousled his hair with a satisfied look and settled comfortably on his head before speaking directly in his mind.
-'I think we need to have a thorough conversation because I want to know exactly where have you been what you have been up to in recent years.'
Kyle chuckled when he sensed the underlying seriousness in her voice and gestured towards Yue and Nox.
'What if I told you I just went to find them?'
Bia's eyes widened at the two familiar figures. Jian kicked aside his opponent and followed Kyle's gaze. A wide grin appeared on his face as he began to float.
"You found her? I knew there was a reason why you asked Bia not to find you. So, you were busy searching for your other half. Haha, well done."
Jian nearly lost his balance mid-air as he raised his hand to smack Kyle's back, but the silver-haired man swiftly moved away like lightning before his hand could make contact with him.
"You... forget it. My whole body is aching; let's just finish this quickly."
Kyle gave him a sidelong glance.
"Don't worry. A supreme rank has just entered the area to fight alongside us. I believe the old man can help us bring all this to a swift conclusion."
Bia stared at Jian and then firmly grasped Kyle's hair before tugging on it tightly, her eyes filled with seriousness.
-'Hey, don't change the topic. I'm not interested in 'what ifs'. And when did you start getting on my nerves?'
Kyle's eyes sparkled with a touch of surprise as he flashed a smirk. Well, he wasn't planning to keep anything from his bonded beast, but it was pleasant to know she understood him so well.
'Okay, little one... hmm, I guess you don't like this title. So, Bia let's have a thorough conversation when we are done here.'
He gazed at the people Xavier and the two humans beside the man were battling, and his spear materialized in his hand.
In a flash, he left Jian's side and grabbed one of the demons fighting Xavier before slamming the demon into the ground.
Xavier's eyes narrowed because even though he could track Kyle's movements, he was sure he couldn't confront him directly as Kyle was much faster. He watched as the silver-haired man thrust his spear into the demon's chest without a hint of emotion on his face.
Kyle retrieved his spear from the demon's chest and locked eyes with Xavier, who returned the gaze with a dry smile while stealing glances at Bia. However, the phoenix paid him no attention at all.
Xavier let out a deep breath, feeling a bit hurt that after meeting with her bonded companion, the phoenix had forgotten all the care he had shown her.
He really wanted to fight for Bia. But, he knew he shouldn't provoke Kyle after witnessing the man's capabilities.
Kyle tilted his head as he observed the demons and dark race individuals scattering in various directions after he killed one of them. He swiped his spear to rid it of the blood before shifting his gaze towards Xavier.
"What are you staring at?"
"Go after them and eliminate them. We can't afford to waste time."
Xavier took one final look at Bia before leaving Kyle's side. But he made sure to drag Jian along as well because he was exhausted, yet the red-haired man had stopped fighting and was just gazing at everyone silently without a care.
