BXBX NOVEL Chapter 309 Chase
"Haha, run boy run, she is at the Formation Establishment stage." Laughed Fenrir, he seemed to enjoy the show
~SWIISH SWIIHSH~
The blade-like petals shot forth, aimed at Ezra's vitals.
The icy sensation at his back alarmed the prince, and he immediately began pushing his Gossamer Form to its peak. At the same time, Purple Scales swiftly covered his body as he desperately dodged left and right, narrowly avoiding the spiritual energy petals.
Even though he had not been hit, the force from the petals that sliced past had drawn several light cuts on his skin.
"She's crazy!" Ezra's complexion turned grave. Ella had shown no mercy and had clearly already lost some of her rationality.
This also told the prince that it was impossible to reason with her.
The best thing to do for now was to escape, and at the very minimum wait for Ella to calm down first before trying to talk. If she caught him, Ezra would have no other chance than to let one of the cubs fight her. But with their temperament, they would kill her and will cause huge trouble to Ezra.
On Ezra's shoulder, Sköll watched with a gloating expression, clearly showing no intentions of helping. While Hati was howling with excitement, his reaction was the same as that of Fenrir.
As such, a chase played out in the waters of the reservoir, both the pursuer and the pursued giving it their all. The disturbance gave rise to giant waves, and the duo would occasionally encounter other disciples along the way.
However, all of the disciples would hurriedly get out of the way at the sight of the murderous-looking Ella Abella, astonishment on their faces as they watched the two go.
"Eh? Isn't that senior sister Ella?"
"Who is she chasing?"
"I don't recognize him… but from the looks of it, senior sister is very angry. What did he do to offend her?"
"He deserves it. I can't believe that he dared to anger senior sister Ella. He'd better hope he doesn't meet me or I will catch him and bring him before senior sister Ella to atone for his crimes!"
"Hehe, with senior sister Ella personally in pursuit, there's no way that he's going to escape."
Though Ezra encountered many disciples along the way, what made him angry was that not a single one had any intentions of helping him, instead casting unkind gazes at him.
"Very well, you disgusting bastards!" Ezra cursed.
Behind him, Ella's face was a little surprised as she gazed at Ezra's figure. She had realised that even after chasing for so long, she was still unable to catch up to him.
This was somewhat inconceivable to her. She could sense that Ezra was merely at the 2nd level Core Formation expert, someone whom she could basically squash with a single palm. However, why was she unable to catch up?
Moreover, travelling in the energy reservoir was extremely taxing on one's spiritual energy. Ordinarily speaking, a 2nd level disciple should have run out of steam long ago, and yet Ezra seemed to have plenty of spiritual energy left.
"No matter who you are, I will not easily let you off today!" Ella's face was covered in frost. This was the first time she had experienced something like this. The mere thought that everything had been seen by this bastard who had suddenly appeared made rage and embarrassment surge in his heart, nearly destroying whatever rationality she had left.
Iciness flashed in her eyes as she locked onto Ezra's figure.
Her hand abruptly formed a seal, and vigorous spiritual energy immediately swept out. It swiftly gathered together, forming a half-foot-tall snow rose.
The snow rose was vivid and lifelike, with ancient patterns adorning each of its petals. An intense cold spread from it, instantly freezing the surrounding water.
"Gamma Layer Skill, Snow Sealing Rose!"
She showed no mercy, directly activating an alarmingly powerful spiritual technique.
~BZZZ~
The snow rose and trembled faintly. In the next instant, it transformed into a flash of white as it shot forth, freezing the surrounding waters wherever it passed...
A torrential wave of coldness swept forth, causing Ezra's expression to change drastically. His speed was affected, gradually slowing down.
He looked back as his pupils abruptly shrank. The incoming snow rose was too alarmingly quick, making it basically impossible for him to dodge.
The piercing chill from it made him feel life-threatening danger. If he was hit, there was no doubt that he would be instantly frozen. Even though it was a Gamma layer skill but the spiritual energy packed in it was tremendous.
Soon, they arrived at a lonely valley, Ella was still surprised how a mere Core Formation expert could be this fast. Apart from his advantage as a Martial Animal, Ezra took off the 2 bracers from his limbs.
Ezra ordered Hati to halt her. "Hey, don't kill her, understand?"
Hati unhappily snorted twice, as if saying that you were clearly the one who drew this trouble, why did he have to clean up after?
"Less nonsense, quick!" Bellowed Ezra.
The corners of Hati's mouth curled downwards in disapproval, but it still stood up on its legs. After all, it could not possibly just idly watch Ezra be harmed.
It turned around, looking towards the incoming ice snow rose as its mouth suddenly opened. Mysterious frost rapidly converged, ultimately condensing into a beam of incomparable coldness that was sent shooting out.
~ZYYOOOO~
The ice beam and snow rose smashed into each other, but no noise sounded from their collision. The chilling aura raised and the parts of water were instantly frozen.
Behind them, Ella was shocked by this sight, this turn of events clearly out of her expectations. How could she have expected her attack to be negated by the little cub on Ezra's shoulder.
The prince took advantage of this opportunity to accelerate and flee for his life, scuttling out of Ella Abella's sights.
