Chapter 269 - 269. Chaos
Master Liu was completely at a loss for words. "Okay, next time try to be frugal, kid. It's not good to be too extravagant," said Master Liu with a rough sigh, leaning against the carriage's seat as well.
"Then deliver us as soon as you can," said the middle-aged man again to the coachman.
Almost two hours had passed and there was only silence in the carriage, no one starting a conversation at all so that all that could be heard was the noise from outside.
Fu Xie Lan closed to have her eyes as if she was asleep.
While Master Liu, the middle-aged man just sat back with his gaze looking out the window of the carriage, watching everything that reached his view.
'Miss, lest you sleep,' Hao's voice buzzed in the girl's head.
Just now Hao finished his sentence.
BOOM...
Explosions sounded, Fu Xie Lan opened her eyes lazily.
And the horse-drawn carriage they were riding in stopped at that very moment.
'What happened?'
Fu Xie Lan tried to get out of the carriage but her feet hadn't even moved a few centimeters and stopped.
"Stay where you are, kid, don't leave this carriage," Master Liu begged.
"Sir, it seems that our journey is a little hampered," said the coachman, looking back.
"Someone seems to be fighting over there, closing the road," he added.
"Using mana inside Kanca City, has that guy gone mad?" Master Liu replied in disbelief.
"Then step aside a bit," he added again speaking to the Courier.
"Very well, sir," replied the coachman.
"Wait here, kid, let this middle-aged man check it out," said Master Liu turning to Fu Xie Lan.
"Remember, don't go anywhere, it's very dangerous for you who is a half-human. Got it? Stay here and wait for me," he added.
Fu Xie Lan just nodded in approval, and after hearing the girl's response, Master Liu got off the carriage.
And as the carriage door closed again, the girl's violet eyes flashed coldly, scanning everything that was happening around her without a hitch.
And sure enough, two people were fighting in front there, right not far from where she was now.
'Hao, can you sense what races are fighting there?' Fu Xie Lan asked the little fluffy creature to speak.
Her eyes also saw that Master Liu was heading in the direction the fight was taking place, not only that, several people that Fu Xie Lan knew were security guards for Kanca City had also gathered at some point, it was clear that no one dared to intervene.
'Perhaps it's better to see it in person, Miss,' Hao said.
'I can't go there, what if Master Liu sees me,' Fu Xie Lan retorted.
As her words just escaped her tiny lips, Fu Xie Lan was stunned for a moment, then a smirk was plastered on her lips.
***
Master Liu stepped closer to the crowd, stopping at a distance of a few meters from the center of the fight.
"What are you guys doing? Stop them," Master Liu said to one of the security guards standing beside him.
"No, sir. That man is very dangerous," replied the guard.
"You'd better leave this place before anything untoward happens," he added.
Master Liu who was about to open his mouth suddenly stopped.
BOOM
KRAAASSHHH
Someone suddenly grabbed him and threw him to the side. He looked around and got a large hole had been created where he had been standing before.
"Thanks...."
His sentence stopped, he wants to thank the person who saved him, but he finds no one nearby.
If the person hadn't pulled him at the right time he might have been charred and crushed like the security guard standing right next to him.
The crowd screamed hysterically, the security guards did not stop the fight but simply asked the people to stay away from the scene, herding them to a safer place.
Master Liu, who witnessed the battle, stared in horror, how could it not?
The figure of a young man there, easily destroying people's bodies, sucking the blood and mana of every creature he reaches until the victim's body dries up, leaving bones, until finally nothing remains, leaving only the victim's cloak piled up terrible on the ground. Upon observation, this was not the kind of battle that Master Liu had in mind before. Because this was an attack by the young man wearing the blue robe over there.
Strangely, even though his cloak was the identifier of a wizard, the pure mana of a wizard could not be sensed from his body.
Attacking people blindly and devouring those it reached, made several people fight the young man to defend against his attacks so that at first glance it looked like two people who were fighting.
Even though if you pay attention for a few minutes, those people are just trying to survive the attack of the young man who is so strong.
Explosion after the explosion was heard, only for a few minutes and already many people died, even the surrounding buildings were razed to the ground.
The young man slowly approached the horse carriage where Fu Xie Lan was and Master Liu who saw this panicked.
Immediately he spread his wings, turned towards the horse-drawn carriage.
However...
SPLASHHHHH...
BOOM...
BOOM...
A large boulder hit one of its wings, sending it crashing to the ground.
Even so, no one paid any heed, everyone seemed to be panicking and busy dodging, running as far as possible to save themselves.
"Aww..."
"Ssshhhh..." Master Liu hissed as he felt a pain in his back.
His wings were broken and his shoulders appeared to be bleeding.
Slightly turning his head, Master Liu looked back, his eyes glaring sharply, the young man who was being avoided by everyone was walking towards him, he seems to be the next target.
The air pressure around Master Liu felt heavy as the young man approached him.
The middle-aged man faintly felt a hint of…evil aura?
Who is that young man?
Master Liu tried to stand up, but unfortunately, one of his legs was crushed by a large boulder.
Why had he not noticed earlier?
Maybe because of feelings of panic and fear, so he didn't realize it.
Using his Fairy mana, plant vines emerged from the ground and tried to pull the rock from his feet.
Master Liu tried very hard, he didn't stop his actions even though the young man was only a few steps away.
"Help me...!" shouted Master Liu trying to call for help.
Using mana in a state of severe injury did require hard work and maximum effort.
And that is exactly what happened to Master Liu at this time.
No matter how hard he tried to scream, no one paid any attention to him.
Security guards were nowhere to be found, all of them ran in various directions, saving themselves.
Master Liu surrendered.
But in those seconds, suddenly vines of plants sprang up from the ground, push away the rock that was upper his feet, and brought his body away from the young man.
Master Liu looked around, up there stood a small girl, looking down on everything she saw.
