Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 532 Of course, it wasn’t me!



Chapter 532 Of course, it wasn't me!

Nox fell silent because something was definitely off with Kyle... like, really off, especially the aura surrounding him. It had become much scarier. As he caught Kyle staring at him, he simply nodded.

He would just let Yue handle the silver-haired human. After all, she would be happy to see him again.

Kyle gave him an approving look, slightly pleased that the lynx didn't attempt to escape his grasp.

However, from the beast's behavior, a thought crossed his mind that perhaps he knew this little lynx as well?

He placed the beast on his shoulder and, after taking one last look at Sebastian's body, he exited the alley. Instantly, some curious onlookers who had previously seen Nox with Yue turned their attention to Kyle as he re-entered the building, only to discover that Yue left the table.

Kyle noticed that the supreme-rank old geezer was drunk and preoccupied in his own world. So, he effortlessly slipped away from the ground floor and began climbing the spiraling staircase leading up to the higher floors. He wanted to sense the mark he had placed on Yue to know her exact location and follow it, but he paused when a young voice sounded in his head.

'Just follow me.'

He tilted his head toward the lynx on his shoulder and watched as the beast jumped down and began climbing the staircase.

Nox gazed back at the human and, after ensuring the man was closely following behind him, the lynx quickened his pace until he reached the fourth floor.

Kyle followed him onto the floor and discovered a symmetrical arrangement of wooden doors on either side, each marked with a different number tag.

His gaze immediately shifted towards the lynx, only to see the beast sitting before a door in the distance.

Nox looked at the silver-haired man who approached him and placed his paw on the door with a mischievous glint in his eyes. He called for Yue in his head and asked her to open the door because he was done with Sebastian. Instantly, a surprised voice echoed in his mind as the elven woman questioned him how he did it so quickly while she opened the door for him.

'Don't blame me... It's a little revenge for the time you wanted to cook and eat me!'

The lynx laughed inwardly as the door in front of him creaked open, and he swiftly slipped inside before slamming it shut with his horns. Kyle stopped in his tracks and stared the door that slammed shut before his eyes. His eyebrow twitched, but then a smirk crept onto his lips.

"Little one, do you believe a weak door can prevent me from entering the room?"

Inside the room, Yue blinked and watched as Nox leaped towards the only bed in the distance with a smug expression.

Her face had a slight flush because she was feeling a bit tipsy from the drink she had earlier, even though she had used her divine-energy to remove it from her body. Yue let out a faint smile when she sensed Nox's emotions; the lynx was feeling proud, and she thought it was because he had beaten up Sebastian quite badly. However, she wondered how he did it so quickly. That's why she approached the bed and crossed her arms with a curious expression.

"So... what did you do? I sensed your emotions were quite troubled for a while after you left the building, but then you became very happy. Hmm, I can't believe you defeated a divine rank so easily."

Nox's eyes sparkled.

"Of course, it wasn't me! Not me at all! It was someone else, someone Yue wants to see so badly. He's outside the room!"

Yue looked confused and gazed at the lynx, who messed up the bedsheet with a yawn.

"Who are you-!"

Her words were interrupted when Nox stood up on the bed and gasped sharply.

"Oh no! He entered the room without permission!"

Yue's eyes narrowed sharply when she sensed the divine energy behind her stir. She spun on her heels, and instinctively reached out for her weapon as she stared at the wooden door across from her.

"Who?"

She had let her guard down, thinking that with a supreme-rank individual protecting her and the other elves, no one would dare to attack them. However, who would have imagined someone would be bold enough to enter her room!

Yue swiftly nocked an arrow in her bow adorned with spiritual energy stones and spread out her senses to identify the intruder, but her expression sank when the air before her cracked, and with a speed visible to the naked eye, the divine energy in the air converged to create a portal that expanded to engulf a significant area.

She prepared herself to attack as a man cloaked in a hoodie stepped out from the portal, but her breath hitched in her throat, and her eyes widened when she locked eyes with the familiar pair of green eyes staring back at her. Instantly, the bow and arrow in her grasp fell to the ground with a resounding thud that reverberated through the quiet room. It took Yue a few moments to accept that what she was seeing was not a figment of her imagination. She staggered and gasped in disbelief.

"Kyle...?"

Kyle stared at the shocked woman before him and muttered softly.

"Yes."

He waited outside the room for a minute to gather his thoughts on what he wanted to discuss with her, but even after that, now that he was standing before her, he didn't know where to begin.

Right... he should start by asking why she left the blue planet and when, but before he could utter another word, Yue's figure disappeared from her spot.

'No, she didn't disappear...'

His mind supplied because he could see her coming towards him, but he didn't move and just watched as she heaved all her weight onto his body.

Due to the sudden movement, Kyle staggered, and they tumbled to the ground together with a soft thud. He released a deep breath when Yue clutched his clothes tightly and buried her face in his chest, completely disregarding the fact that they had just dropped to the ground.
