Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 525 How did you get here!?

It was all good even when four or five more lights appeared and settled on Kyle's body. However, a vein throbbed on his forehead because, for some unknown reason, their numbers kept increasing, causing his body to tingle from the tremendous amount of spiritual energy around him.

He released a deep exhale and repeatedly reminded himself inwardly to stay calm, but his final shred of composure shattered when another light appeared and settled on his left eye. Kyle swatted the few lights on his face away and vanished from his spot without a second hesitation.

He reappeared in the distance and cursed under his breath while brushing his body to dispel the tingling sensation. His actions halted as he caught the sound of rustling leaves coming from the tree where he was sitting just a moment ago.

Kyle blinked and whipped his head back only to see numerous lights rushing toward him. Their radiance illuminated the entire area around the tree, and his lips twitched when he noticed that, strangely, their speed was much faster now compared to before.

"Okay... I take back my words. I am good alone. I don't need a companion!"

His final words dissipated into the air as he vanished into thin air towards a distant place. The mystical spirits all froze when they witnessed his disappearance.

Then, they all let out faint sad whimpers and dispersed in all directions to search for the human they liked so much. They were even willing to lead the human toward valuable treasures; all he had to do was let them stick to his body.

In the meantime, Kyle reappeared in a faraway place and clicked his tongue. It was late at night, and he had no good place to sleep anymore. Well, it's not like he was sleepy. He just wanted to meditate. But now that he had started moving, he didn't want to sit anymore.

So, he gazed at the faraway place where he sensed the presence of the individual he had marked and vanished from his place to go see them. Unfortunately, on the way, he caught a repulsive scent of blood mixed with the scent of an individual that made him a bit angry for some reason.

Kyle halted above a barren landscape. He had sensed many other people around him since he arrived here, and he was sure they were also exploring the Sacred Divine Land just like him. That's why, to avoid unnecessary inconvenience, he always avoided them. However, among those presences, this familiar yet unfamiliar dark scent stood out distinctly, as if his body was drawn to it intentionally.

"I feel like even though I forgot, my body remembers... who is this person to make me angry just by their scent alone? It's definitely not Aze because I can clearly sense their rank... So?"

Kyle glanced to his left and vanished, only to reappear above a cluster of boulders. He gazed down at the concealed narrow tunnel that descended underground towards one of the numerous buried chambers he had sensed in this land. In the next second, a cold smile crept across his face as he leaped and entered the tunnel.

"Well, whoever it is, I will figure it out after giving them a little beating, won't I? It won't take much time, I'm sure."

He blinked, and his vision adjusted to the darkness enveloping him as he walked through the tunnel leading down. After a minute or so, Kyle's eyes narrowed at the light at the other end of the tunnel.

He stepped out into an open area that shimmered brightly due to the slightly ajar, majestic silver gate adorned with various symbols that loomed across from him.

Kyle's eyes quickly focused on the few individuals fighting before the massive gate. The first thing that caught his eye was the blood pooling beneath their feet before he noticed a middle-aged human male, two male elves, a living male demi-

human, and the lifeless body of another middle-aged demi-

human female.

His gaze narrowed at the middle-aged human who, along with the two elves, was attempting to kill the demi-human. But even after looking at the middle-aged man clad in a blue shirt with jet black hair and a pair of grey pupils, he didn't remember or feel anything.

"So, is it just his scent that's making me feel infuriated? I should inquire if that man recognizes me."

He had already sensed that none of the individuals in the group were powerful enough to confront him on equal terms. In the next moment, Kyle's floating body materialized behind the middle-aged man who was wielding a whip towards the demi-

human and gently tapped his shoulder.

Instantly, the middle-aged man who had a menacing grin on his face as he and the elves attacked the demi-human froze when he felt the fleeting touch on his shoulder. He snapped his head back, and his eyes dilated when he saw the familiar pair of green eyes staring down at him.

Leroy, the middle-aged man, for the first time since he left the blue planet through the ethereal tunnel to arrive on the Sacred Divine Land because he was able to construct a new body for himself with the help of the divine phoenix blood, felt like he was dreaming. After all, how could the human he had seen years ago on the blue planet... the very human who he heard disappeared, leaving behind the phoenix, appear behind him out of thin air?

His grey pupils trembled slightly because, even though he had only seen Kyle once before when he followed Istalian to check on the youngsters who emerged alive from the ancient realm, he could never forget those piercing green eyes.

These eyes were the very reason that instead of kidnapping the divine phoenix, he asked Istalian to use a more diplomatic approach to request the phoenix for her blood in exchange for treasures. Leroy's mouth fell open in a startled shout.

"You!? How did you get here?"

He leaped back from Kyle, who stared at him with emotionless eyes. The man was extremely shocked and wanted to know how and why the human who should have been on the blue planet was here! No way, the main question was how the heck did the youngster find him!?

Leroy made sure before he left the blue planet that the ethereal tunnel would be completely destroyed if anyone else used it after him to take revenge against Odiak, who in the past ordered a group of divine rank individuals to kill him! So... how?

The two elves fighting alongside Leroy kicked the injured demi-

human aside and glanced in his direction after hearing his loud and shocked exclamation. Leroy, however, paid them no attention; he simply began moving with the elves because he needed allies in this dangerous place. At that moment, he couldn't fathom just how this human had arrived here!

A sudden thought crossed his mind, sending him into a bit of a panic... If Kyle is here, does that mean the guardians of the Tower of Opportunity who survived when the ethereal tunnel collapsed are also here searching for him?

But why so soon? It's not even been five years since he arrived on this land!
