Chapter 116 Attacked
Chapter 116 Attacked
Pegasus instantly moved towards the center of the continent where the Holy Cloud City was located.
It flew fast, penetrating one cloud after another and passing through the many entourages that were also going to the city.
Ciel enjoyed the journey this morning, even deliberately telling the Pegasus to slow down her speed so that he could enjoy the scenery below in more detail.
Every now and then he took a deep breath, inhaling the fragrant air as it blended with the scent of the flower gardens below.
Unfortunately, today might not be a completely peaceful day for him.
When he was only halfway to Holy Cloud City, he suddenly saw a thin man with dark eyes standing not far in front of him.
The figure gave the impression of not existing at all or just an illusion as his existence was completely unable to be sensed.
Without seeing him directly, Ciel would not have realized that someone was standing there.
Of course, that was only if you looked at hin with ordinary eyes. When Ciel activated the Eyes of Heaven to see the figure, he immediately discovered a boundless power, which seemed to be able to cover the entire sky.
He was an extremely powerful existence, no doubt about it.
His current cultivation was completely insignificant or useless in front of him.
As Ciel continued to stare at him, one of the man's fingers was pointed at Ciel.
Shua!
Strangely; right after that, the clear sky suddenly became very dark, so dark that there was no light source at all. Even the stars disappeared.
And that was not only from Ciel's perspective, but from the perspective of everyone in the Holy Cloud Continent.
They were all stunned simultaneously, confused by what was happening.
In front of that darkness, even the Demigods found their eyes hard to see.
It was actually also difficult for the Blue Cloud God who was now in his residence.
He stood in front of the window together with the Cloud Elder.
"I didn't expect him to move this fast," he said with narrowed eyes.
He had originally hoped that it would be done at least after he finished the event, that way he could also do things easily.
Right after he said that, he seemed to feel something which then changed his expression even more.
"So there are two more," he said.
The Cloud Elder was surprised to hear that so he spontaneously asked, "who is Your Majesty?"
Unfortunately, the Blue Cloud God didn't answer as he was completely focused on observing the sky.
Ciel, who knew from the start that there were three people coming, was not so surprised.
Just after the sky darkened, he suddenly found the air to be empty, making the space seem to become light and heavy at the same time.
This was something very difficult to explain, completely incomprehensible to Ciel whose insight was very small.
Clearly, he found moving to be extremely difficult.
When he wanted to swing his hand to the right, his hand suddenly moved to the left.
He instantly concluded that it came from the attack of someone called the Air God.
Now; he wondered how the Invisible Sword God would attack him.
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt something move quickly into his stomach.
At first he didn't see anything until he actually increased the power of the Eyes of Heaven.
Right in front of him, he saw a sword moving quickly towards him.
The sword was completely transparent, as if it was created from something that didn't exist so as to give the impression of not existing.
All in all, it can be concluded that this was a collaboration of all parties.
And this was the cooperation of three Immortals who were experts in sneak attacks. They were assassin types like Kaiya though the latter was perhaps more frightening when she became a God.
However, a three-party attack like this might be able to cause death even to a First Stage God like the Blue Cloud God.
Ciel was undoubtedly completely rendered helpless.
When the attack arrived at his body, the Protection Formation of the Ice Goddess and the Elf Queen would indeed protect him, but the cooperation of the three gods could still easily cripple him.
Even the two formations would be destroyed in the end.
The only one he could hope for at this point was the Elf Queen.
She must have seen all of this, and with her power, she should be able to appear beside him in a split second.
Only, even as the sword got closer to him, the Elf Queen still didn't appear.
BANG!
The sword slammed into his body, causing him to be knocked away instantly.
It couldn't penetrate him only because there was thin ice that appeared around his body.
However, just because he wasn't injured, it didn't mean he didn't suffer.
Coug! Coug!
He instantly coughed up blood twice while his body was still being thrown fast until he finally slammed into a mountain.
BANG!
The mountain exploded as well, making him even more miserable.
"As expected, he's protected," said one of the Gods, who knows who it was.
"The protection of the Ice Goddess is really very strong, I'm afraid it would take a hundred attacks if we wanted to destroy it."
"That's no problem, let's do it!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
This time, three invisible swords rushed towards Ciel from the front, completely too fast for even the Demigods to dodge.
Ciel's expression instantly turned deathly pale as he worried that he wouldn't be able to walk easily for a while if they hit him like before.
And as it turned out, the Elf Queen still didn't appear.
He was struck by the three swords, being knocked away again in the other direction.
However, just as he was thrown again, he suddenly saw the Elf Queen's wooden bird flying nearby, following him at an unimaginable speed.
At this point, how could Ciel not understand that the Elf Queen had deliberately not appeared.
"Queen, keep playing around and you'll regret it until you cry," Ciel said while gritting his teeth.
Ciel did not hesitate to threaten and she did not hesitate to threaten hard. He would also do everything to make her cry.
"Come on young man, why so grumpy, you shouldn't overestimate me because I also have movement limits, there's no way I can do everything." The Elf Queen's voice echoed, answering Ciel's words.
She sounded joking, but who knew if she was telling the truth or not.
Or she might also be worried about Ciel's threat.
"Hurry up and do something," Ciel replied in a louder voice.
Just as he said that, he suddenly felt something flow into his body, and it instantly relieved the pain in his body, making him healthy again.
At the same time, three male figures flew towards him at high speed.
Their movements seemed like they were breaking through time and space, even with the Eyes of Heaven, Ciel could not observe their movements easily.
When they attacked directly, the results would probably be much worse, but Ciel could rest easy now that the Elf Queen was right beside him.
This time, the woman's figure actually appeared.
And at the moment she appeared, the darkness suddenly disappeared, turning the sky so bright that the people of the Holy Cloud Continent who had originally been unable to see anything could finally see.
One by one, they directed their gazes to the place where they sensed a majestic aura that seemed to originate from the entire Realm of Life.
What they found there was of course a golden-haired beauty, wearing a golden tiara and having pointed ears.
Her figure was slender and charming while her face was beautiful beyond imagination. She wore a short white dress with gold embroidery while her long legs wore a pair of high heels that appeared to be made of crystal.
Her chin was pointed, her lips were rosy red, her nose matched her face perfectly, and her green eyes were calm like a sea without waves.
The existence of the three male figures flying towards Ciel was almost like dust when she stood there.
Even they froze instantly, their expressions showing boundless fear.
"Queen!" They hurriedly saluted, cupping their fists at her.
However, at the same time their feet looked like they wanted to take a step back.
"You three are not bound to any sects and clans, so you dare to be the first. However, don't even think about leaving without suffering. If you don't want me to chase you every time we meet, it's better to stay here, and let this young man slap each of you in the face." The Queen said.
Her voice was smooth and soft, but it could be heard even by the monsters hiding underground.
What she said shocked everyone and the three Gods.
What was shocking was her last sentence. She wanted the three Gods to let Ciel slap their faces.
That's certainly an exaggeration.
Cultivators often say that they can be killed, but not insulted.
That was just ordinary cultivators, Gods naturally had much higher pride.
Even being slapped by a stronger God was a huge humiliation for them, not to mention a young man who had just started cultivation.
