After a long stretched out battle, Ji Sky was gradually feeling the strain on his old self after deflecting the last blow. He hasnât given up, but strong will doesnât equal to physical strength in this case.
Bang!
Attacking from the rear in his moment of weakness, Ji Sky did not dodge in time and took the blow bluntly. Dropping his sword, this old man could no longer carry his weapon and flew many meters off before plunging into the cold hard ground with that fall.
âElder Sky!â Those on the Monarch Manorâs side exclaims in great fright at the sight.
âGrandfather!â Ji Songâs heart jumped, her head a blank state as she ran towards her only family member.
âLittle Song!â After spitting out blood from due to the injury, the poor grandfather only saw the painful image of his granddaughter crying and running over. For that, his old face crumbled into horror: âDonât come over!â
Back over in the sky, the leading foe took notice and waved hiss men to dive down for intercept. Immediately, Ji Song was caught between several attackers with her in the middle.
âPff!â Ji Sky once again spewed blood from his mouth at the situation, those eyes a reckoning of red: âDonât any of you touch her! Whoever dares to touch so much as a hair on her will have their soul crushed under my fist! I will take you all to hell with me if I must!â
The enemy leader did not seem to hear the threat though and instead reached down to bring the child into a choking hold with his hand.
âJi Song!â All of the elders are very much frantic now as they attempted to break through the blockade for a rescue. Sadly, the enemy forces were many and they too little to resist.
In retrospect, Ji Song didnât appear frightened in the slightest despite being in such a predicament.
âYou let her go, let go of my granddaughter!â Pulling himself up, Ji Sky wanted to run over to be blocked by countless swords from the front.
âOld man, your granddaughter is in our hands now. If you tell us where Heavenly Flame is then weâll let your granddaughter go, how about that?â Saying this was a woman dressed in blue, her sarcastic eyes fell upon Ji Sky when saying that.
Theyâve been stalking the Monarch Manor for several days already, and the reason they didnât attack earlier was because they wanted more information regarding Heavenlyâs existence. If the guy was around, he wouldâve come out by now. And as they all see.... Clearly the guy was either in great danger, or seriously injured, regardless, itâs the time to press their advantage.
Furthermore, imagine they manage to capture the infamous Heavenly Flame alive? That would be a merit worthy of going into the history books!
âMy grandfather wonât ever tell you anything.â Ji Song coldly met the blue dressed woman, her head held high in proud proclamation: âHe is absolutely loyal to the monarch. Even if you kill me, he wonât say a thing!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIs that right?â The woman slowly strolled forward and grabbed over Ji Song from the guy. With slight flex of her slender finger, a huge pinch of red promptly shown through the childâs cheek after the act. âWho doesnât know Elder Sky of the Heavenly Domain is extremely fond of his own granddaughter? I like to see if you are more important today or that Heavenly Flame is more important.â
