The Universe Is Innately Just 185 Through Blood And Bonds Part Two

"You're one h.e.l.l of a great guy.", a crooked smile was on his face. Warped by the fear he was feeling, and he turned around and began leaving the venue.

Fell couldn't help but have his heart warm-up, and he took his brother's word as cheering. "Yeah, I'm one h.e.l.l of a great guy…", he mumbled under his breath.

He turned around, and looked at the ma.s.s of guests with a saddened gaze. "Something nasty is going to happen here.", his voice boomed through the large ballroom. It was powerful enough to make the chandelier on top of the head move and managed to gather the attention of the many guests. On their face was puzzlement, and only a few cultivators began moving away the moment he heard the confirmation.

"What do you mean, young hero?", asked a middle-aged man between two puffs of his cigar.

"Whoever wants to keep his life intact. Leave!", his short speech showed the urgency of the moment.

Fell trembled from hesitation. But just as he took out Soldier's Fortune and wanted to scare them to leave, a sharp and eerie voice spread through the ballroom. The young cultivator's heart skipped a beat, and just as he turned his head to look at the origin of the sound, one explosion after the other happened near him.

With a quick spin, he managed to retreat a few steps away from the explosion. And was shocked, and disgusted, when he understood that he had misjudged the bang for something else. The n.o.bles that had eaten at his table had turned into a ma.s.s of mangled flesh and ground bones that was traveling through the air.

"Leaving now will only ruin the last entertainment of the night. Make yourself at home and enjoy this spectacle, my dear guests!", The Styx like fluid traveled through the air toward the man who was speaking.

Screams of horror, and despair, resounded in the large ballroom. And a few guests were so paralyzed that they were nailed on their spots, unable to move an inch, and continuously s.h.i.+vering. A few guests threw up the content of the diner, while the rest began running with maddened steps.

As the number of guests was quite high. A few, unfortunate, and unlucky individuals were stepped on during the mad escape, and their corpses were reduced to terrible states. Not even a few seconds had pa.s.sed since the elder made his way to the ballroom, but panic had already taken place deep in the guests' hearts.

Numerous sounds akin to the earlier explosion happened. Fell's head turned left and right, and without further thought, managed to understand the reason for the deaths. All of them were n.o.bles linked to the four leading families; a few of the cultivators from the leading families came to the same conclusion. Their legs stomped on the ground as, they began leaving the ballroom in an even maddened state than the guests, since they were the current prey of the elder.

At first, Fell was lost and couldn't understand the reason for the familial butchering. But as the elder began absorbing one corpse after the other, through the great flows of red liquid, he came to understand that the twisted and lacking blood essence was recovering. Albeit very slowly, and with difficulty, the blood essence regrowth was a matter that shouldn't be regrown with ease.

Fell distanced himself from the ma.s.s of exploding individuals. And stood on higher ground on one of many decorative b.u.mps on the ceiling, his senses gathered around the elder, and he confirmed the reason for the ma.s.sacre with a swift a.n.a.lysis.

"That man is the Golden family elder!?", he exclaimed as he sensed that the core of the blood essence was similar to the one from the other golden family members. "Yet his body contains the blood essence from the other three leading families… What the h.e.l.l happened upstairs!?", he was shocked by the discovery.

"If I don't stop him from absorbing every single member of the leading families. He will turn into an even bigger threat!", he thought in a precise manner. But he still didn't move as he didn't know how to stop him; from the way how the bodies were turning into a liquid from a distance, he feared that the man could do the same even during a fight.

He stayed in the same position, hanging high on the ceiling, far from the senses of the elder. He hesitated for a few seconds, with the sounds of horror-filled screams and bodies turning into mashed pastes. The smell hitting his nostrils was strong enough to make a mortal faint, and a wave of dizziness a.s.saulted his mind as he began thinking of solutions.

Then, a sharp glint appeared in his pupil, and a self-deprecating, and grim grin appeared on his youthful face. "Hesitation leads to inaction… And inaction leads to death!"

His leg stomped on the ceiling, but no sound was produced, and his figure disappeared from the ballroom. His body, moving at an absurd speed and moving from death angles that couldn't be seen by the elder. He reduced the distance that separated them in a few seconds, Soldier's Fortune appeared in the air, drawing a semi-circular stroke in the air.

'Ghostly Stutter' was swiftly activated in the run, making his movement even more unpredictable. The distance separating him from the elder was only a few steps. Steps that he took in silent a cautious manner, and in the last stomp activated 'Solary Dive'. His body dived in a motion akin to a rocket launched from a mortar, with Soldier's Fortune turning into an unstoppable spear, the tip of his sword dangerously neared the neck of the elder.

"And here I thought you had left the banquet I prepared for you."
