Celestial Bloodline

The group around the couple was jolted from their surprise when all of a sudden Yue lifted her fist and delivered a punch squarely on Kyle's torso.

Kyle didn't dodge and simply raised an eyebrow, noticing that his wife had become stronger in his absence. However, his smile vanished, and he hissed when he realized the punch was anything but gentle.

Yue's face lit up. So, she was allowed to hit him even though he was stronger?

Sinon stifled a chuckle, and everyone around him did the same. They seemed to forget that they were above the battlefield as they watched Kyle grab Yue's hand before she could strike him again.

Yue offered Kyle a sweet smile. She had settled all the little complaints she had against him with that punch.

"So, how have you been?"

Kyle blinked when Yue slapped his hands away and created some distance between them, clearly waiting for his response.

He could have sworn he sensed a hint of satisfaction in her voice, as if she was quite happy to land a hit on him.

'At least she's no longer angry. I will handle the rest later when we are alone.'

He straightened his posture, feeling a twinge of annoyance rising within him as he noticed Alec and the others reveling in his interaction with Yue a bit too much.

"I am good."

Hearing his words, Yue nodded, and Kyle noticed how her smile faded, replaced by her usual calm demeanor. But then she suddenly glanced to either side of him, seemingly searching for someone.

"What about Bia?"

Kyle tilted his head to the right.

"She went to check the other side of the battlefield. I contacted her; she should be here soon with Nox."

....

At the same time, high above a land swarming with countless types of beasts mindlessly and mercilessly clawing at one another, a colossal fire phoenix let out a piercing screech among the many large floating divine beasts in the sky, striving to assert her dominance over the others.

From the right side, a large dark hawk with enormous wings and sharp, dark eyes tried to attack the phoenix, but a massive horned lynx quickly interrupted its assault.

Nox raised his blue eyes toward the phoenix engulfed in flames, the iridescent scales on his body shimmering even under the dark sky as he grumbled inwardly.

'She has become more powerful!'

It has been quite some time since Bia arrived on the battlefield. She had always been the one to torment him the most since he formed his bond with Yue. But strangely enough, he felt a genuine sense of joy when he saw her familiar form.

Nox felt strange, but he attributed his feelings to the fact that it had been a while since he had seen the phoenix. However, he was disheartened because Bia had yet to acknowledge his presence.

From the moment she appeared on the battlefield, it was clear that her interest was more focused on asserting her dominance over the countless beasts surrounding her, which only deepened his bitterness.

'What's so great about being the one in command? There are many monsters here that are stronger than her. Even if she is a phoenix, she won't be able to dominate the weaker beasts in their presence.'

He narrowed his eyes as another beast from the dark side attempted to attack Bia. He wanted to intervene again but stopped when the golden flames surrounding the phoenix frightened the beast away.

All of a sudden, Bia paused in her movements and let out an annoyed sound. Nox noticed her displeasure and wondered what had happened. His eyes lit up when she finally turned her gaze toward him.

Bia glanced at him in silence. She had originally come here to beat up Nox, but when she saw the countless monsters around her, her focus shifted. She wanted to control them all, to force them to obey her command. But even though she had managed to command a large number of monsters on the battlefield, she ultimately failed to dominate all the beasts due to the presence of other powerful monsters with consciousness in the vicinity.

She hadn't even had the chance to enjoy herself properly yet, but just now, Kyle had told her to return to him with Nox!

-'I don't want to leave just yet...'

Her eyes shifted from Nox as she glanced toward the other side of the battlefield-the side from which the monsters controlled by the dark side were advancing.

Instantly, her gaze met a pair of cold, dark ruby-red eyes that stared back at her.

It was another phoenix.

However, in contrast to Bia, who had a blend of golden, red, and blue feathers, this phoenix had a striking array of dark and blood-red feathers encasing its body.

Bia scoffed at the dark phoenix in the distance that merely stared at her. She had noticed it the moment she arrived on the battlefield, but it simply observed her quietly, a solemn glint in its

Eyes.

It didn't engage in the fight and remained perched atop a massive rocky structure in the distance, commanding the monsters around it to charge forward.

- "Tsk, tsk, just at the divine rank, and yet you're already so arrogant? It is clear that I am the majestic one among us. Is not that the reason why you have been sitting so far away, not daring to come and fight me? Just a little kid trying to pretend to be grand."

Perhaps the dark phoenix heard Bia's condemning words; it suddenly opened its wings, but instead of approaching her, it left the area and vanished into the dark sky.

Bia let out a snicker.

- "Running away, finally? Go on, run. It's not like I would waste my time on someone weaker

Than me."

Nox, who had been observing the exchange, flinched as Bia suddenly opened her enormous claws to grab his body. He dodged quickly, and she merely rolled her eyes before soaring

Upward.

-"Quit dilly-dallying. Follow me; Kyle's calling."

Nox nodded and quickly followed her as they maneuvered through the battlefield, heading toward the nearest resting camp.

He couldn't help but glance back at the chaos. Unlike Alec and the others, he hadn't drawn much attention when he first joined the war, particularly because he wasn't as strong as they were. Therefore, he had been fighting in the war for nearly a month now, determined to grow stronger after receiving Yue's permission to fight alone. So, it felt a bit strange to leave so

Suddenly.

He noticed numerous powerful beasts observing him, curious about why he was suddenly leaving with the phoenix. With a sigh, he spoke directly in their minds.

'I will return shortly and join you all.'
