Chapter 435 Fierce Women
Chapter 435 Fierce Women
It had been two hours now, and the group couldn\'t help but stare into the distance with varying expressions, well, that was if you didn\'t consider Seth, who was lounging on a chair behind and drinking a glass of orange juice under the shade of an umbrella.
"She still isn\'t done forming her cocoon. Don\'t you have any idea how much longer this might take?" Adriana said, turning back to Seth.
"Nope," the man answered without bother.
"If you were going to go experimental on her, why didn\'t you transform her last? That way, we could readily and patiently wait for whatever is to come," Dorian spoke, her words bringing a frown to the faces of Adriana and Sonia who nodded in agreement with her.
"Hey, are you trying to start a propaganda against me? When did I say I experimented on her?"
"I\'m not accusing you, but I\'m reasoning that you favoured her and decided to do something special or different when you transformed her," Dorian further explained.
"That\'s a nice thought, but no, I didn\'t do anything different. I used the same old normal method."
Hearing Seth\'s words, everyone went thinking, and then Dorian\'s voice came out subdued a few seconds later.
"Do you think she is taking so long because she is having difficulties or perhaps failing?"
"Alice won\'t fail," Sonia, who had been quietly kneeling beside Seth and resting her head on his lap, immediately said. Her words came out with a powerful pressure that had Dorian snorting and Adriana wincing.
"What kind of world am I living in? Within just minutes, I\'ve been turned into the weakest member of the group," Adriana lamented, and then she felt stares fall on her.
"Are you ready?" Seth said, his fangs slowly protruding.
"No, we should first wait for Alice to be done."
"Hmmmm," Seth hummed, putting a hand to his chin in thought, and then he replied, "Naaaaaa."
Hearing Seth\'s reply, Adriana got up to her feet to defend her case, but her efforts were for nought as Seth, who had been sitting on a reclining chair seconds ago, appeared behind her. His hands on her and tongue licking her neck.
"Seth, please, I don\'t want to leave Alice unsupervised."
"Your loyalty is appreciated but it\'s also meaningless. If I want Alice to die, she will die irrespective of whether you are present, and if I want her to live, she will live even if you become a soldier-level cultivator.
If it helps, think of this as me verifying if I did something different while transforming Alice."
After Seth finished speaking, he said nothing more, and neither did he allow Adriana to.
With a single move, his head moved forward, and his teeth were soon deep in the flesh of Adriana\'s neck. A soft moan left the woman as Seth first had a taste of her blood, but by the time he was pulling his mouth off her, her face was twisted in a grimace, and she was rubbing her neck.
"So do we now move away from her?" Sonia, who was on her feet, asked while rubbing her lips with her finger.
"Yes, my beautiful pet," Seth said with a grin, loving the cute pose Sonia had unknowingly made.
But before the woman could run into his arms, which he had stretched open for a hug, there was a blur behind her, and the next second, Sonia was letting out a scream as she was being carried away.
"This woman is turning out to be quite the cock blocker. I should do my best to keep her away from me in the future," Seth thought with a grumble as he followed behind the duo.
Strolling behind the duo, Seth paid no attention to the blasts that were soon going off a few meters ahead of him. Not even using his soulsense, it was easy for Seth to theorize that Sonia had perhaps gotten out of Dorian\'s hold or been set free, and now the younger woman was lashing out at the older woman.
"She\'s quite the fierce woman," Seth thought.
After walking for some more minutes, Seth stopped and watched as a wave of darkness rose from the ground, forming a tall, wide umbrella and a reclining chair below it.
With another glass of orange juice appearing in his hand, Seth took his seat once more and observed the two points of thick qi concentration in front of him.
"Now, Alice, just what is happening in there with you?" Seth thought.
The words Seth had spoken to Alice were the truth and no lie. He had done nothing special to Alice, and now even he was left confused at what was happening.
As Seth continued to watch and observe the two women, his eyebrows raised, and he had his soulsense pouring out of him in a strange wave, moving towards his back and scanning the battle that was happening behind him.
Seth\'s face scrunched in thought at the scene happening behind him, but he made no effort to move, continuing to observe both combatants even as both their roars filled the sky.
A minute later, the roars died down, and within seconds, Dorian appeared beside him and dropped the battered form of Sonia to the ground.
"Were you really in that much danger? Is her dragon\'s flames that strong?" Seth asked.
"Yes, it was. It made me feel like I would die, and I had no choice but to counter with my own."
"Was Basco\'s dragon\'s flames this strong immediately after transformation?"
"Yes," Dorian replied and then went silent, looking at Seth expectantly, but he never spoke.
"You won\'t ask me more about him?"
"We\'ll talk more at a different time. You should brace for impact."
Just as Seth finished talking, like a bomb was dropped, there was a huge explosion, huge waves of fire and qi began spreading in all directions.
Though the fires didn\'t go far, the qi charged forward without pause, pirating and seeking to destroy anything in its path, but just before the qi could hit them, a wave of darkness surrounded both Seth, Dorian, and Sonia.
