Chapter 777 - Letizia's Fight

"Hurry up!" One of the elders that had been tasked to go to the prison shouted at the numerous elders and disciples from the influence. She never expected something would happen in the ritual place. Hence, she gathered all the people she could find and headed toward there.

"Is this the same person… No, is this Letizia's master?" The other elder tasked here asked her.

"I don't know, but there is the ancestor, the sect master, and two 9-Star Martial Saints elders… To have created a ruckus like this… I am afraid there are a few people too from their side. That's why I am bringing many people there." She shook her head while sweating.

"Anyway, with these many people, we can only arrive in another five minutes… Should the elders rush there? We can reach there within three minutes."

She thought for a moment and nodded. "Alright. Three elders will stay here to guide the disciples while the rest follow me! We are going to help the sect master."

"Yes!" They nodded and increased their speed.

…

On the battlefield.

"Boom!"

"Master!" Letizia opened her mouth and called Alex in surprise. She never thought Alex would appear in this battle just after five minutes of fighting. It was either he fought the elder with some risky moves to speed up the battle or due to their difference of strength. Nonetheless, it was surely good news to her.

"We can't fight for too long. At most, another three minutes before their reinforcements come." Alex warned her and looked down. "I will help you kill her."

Letizia didn't realize the hidden meaning behind these words. However, Alex intended to let Letizia kill her because of his promise to let her have revenge.

"Ice Lances!" Gritting her teeth, the ancestor stood up and summoned a few spears made of ice. They flew out of the grounds, heading toward Letizia and Alex.

"Fire Swords!" Alex raised his hand and summoned the swords with the same number as the spear.

"Boom Boom Boom!" Another series of explosions resounded across the region. Knowing the current condition of their ancestor, they shouted, worrying about her. The sect leader was especially loud. "Ancestor! Someone. Go help the ancestor!"

Unfortunately, no one could answer that call because none of them had a thought of breaking through these people. Even those who Alex chose to kill had already been covered with wounds and blood.

Even if they risked it to go there, they felt they wouldn't be able to reach the ancestor before their enemies killed them. It wasn't because of their strength. All of them knew that these people only tried to buy time for Alex and Letizia to kill the ancestor. If they sacrificed their hands or whatever, the enemies still could respond because they never whole-heartedly attacked them.

"Tch!"

"Does anyone have a treasure to sacrifice?" She shouted in this hopeless situation. However, how could they have such a treasure where all of them needed to be stored inside the treasury? No one was bold enough to steal something from there, especially since the ancestor just resurrected today. Unfortunately, now it also became their greatest despair.

Alex nodded at Letizia, asking her to follow him. The latter watched how he shortened the distance between him and the ancestor before flying behind him.

"You bastard! Just take that girl away, and we won't interfere in your war against the Fire God Clan!" The ancestor screamed as she struck Alex's sword.

That clash created a massive crater beneath her feet before she felt a blazing aura coming from that strike.

"Tch! Dammit! Sword Saint!" She glared at Alex and noticed how her skin got burned by the heat carried by the intent. She regretted having such a body like this. In fact, Letizia's body was much better to possess. Even if she needed to pretend to be his slave for a period of time, she could simply run away the moment she reached God Stage. This might be the biggest miscalculation of her… No, the Snow White Mountain ever had.

The heat started forming fire and burned the snow around the area despite the cold temperature.

The ancestor already knew about his Pure Fire element, but she never thought it was this powerful. And with a Pure Ice Element servant, no wonder he could become the most dangerous person in this world.

When Alex pinched her like this, Letizia appeared on her right, slashing her sword.

"Ice Oscillation Wave!"

The ancestor ground her teeth and summoned a thick ice wall before covering her body with powerful ice armor. Just like Letizia, she also understood this technique. The original body seemed to have attained high-level armor, at least around Letizia's level.

Letizia's Ice Oscillation Wave managed to shatter the ice wall but unable to continue, leaving only her Sword Path to cut the ancestor. Unfortunately, the ice armor blocked her Untraceable Ice Path.

The two didn't stop and attacked her again with their weapons from her front and behind.

"I am going to show you what it means to be a God Rank Expert!" The ancestor suddenly released a more powerful Spiritual Energy, far surpassing her rank. She knew she couldn't escape from these two if she didn't use her all.

*Clank Clank!*

She completely blocked Alex's powerful strength with two slashes before blowing Letizia away.

"What?!" Letizia dropped her jaw, never expecting the ancestor to have this kind of power left.

"She is burning her lifespan." On the other hand, Alex muttered to himself as he observed how she utilized the blood in her body. It must be related to the Ice Blood, he thought. "Since we still have time, I will try to wear her out first and search for an opportunity. Looking at her condition and current energy, I don't think she can utilize this for a long time."

Alex and Letizia kept attacking her and wounding her to lower her strength. The ancestor fought well, but the powerful fight only lasted for a minute due to the strength difference. No matter what, Alex was too powerful for her.

"Not good!" Suddenly, she realized she reacted slightly late.

"Heaven Light Slash." Alex used this chance by enhancing the technique with his Triple Draws, launching six attacks simultaneously.

"Ha!" She burned her lifespan even further, just to gather enough strength to block this attack. Veins started bulging out on her face and hands and somehow succeeded in blocking this attack, only to find herself trapped by Alex's power.

Letizia realized her turn had come and appeared behind the ancestor.

"No. You won't!" The ancestor summoned a thick ice wall again, surrounding her body except for the part where Alex stood.

Letizia and Alex smiled at the same time as the heat suddenly enveloped its surrounding, melting a portion of the ice.

Letizia saw this as a chance and released everything she had.

"Ice Oscillation Wave!"

Not only the sword wave, but her ice path was used to cut this ice. Even if it couldn't destroy the wall completely, it was enough just to penetrate a single line where she could complete her swing.

*Crack!*

The cracking sound echoed in their ears as the ancestor realized her aim and leaped to the side. Letizia didn't care about her attack at all and simply wished to have that single line to cut her from the back.

Not only that, as soon as she focused on Letizia's attack, Alex's eyes flashed a dangerous glint as he completed his slash, cutting her arm. At the same time, Letizia's attack also slashed her back, albeit a bit shallow. Even so, the blood flowed out of that wound and dyed the clothes red.

The ancestor grabbed the sword and ran for her life. Unfortunately, with that kind of wound, she couldn't outrun Alex as the latter suddenly appeared in front of her, swinging his sword.

"I won't die here!" She gritted her teeth and struck that sword to create a chance to escape.

It was at this time, Alex pulled another trick. The sword might aim to blow her away, but Alex's spear abruptly moved at his highest speed, creating three blows on the sword body.

"What?!" The ancestor screamed as she just realized what this guy did. He completely used the sword and his powerful strength to blow her away, and that spear's purpose was to send her sword flying from her hand.

With this, not only would she fly toward Letizia on her back, she had no means to block her again. Everything had been calculated by Alex, including the lower strength in her off hand. "You bastard!"

Nothing she could do would change this situation as she flew toward Letizia. She turned around and created her Ice Armor to block her attack even if it meant gravely injured, but she suddenly felt an overbearing pressure from behind, suppressing her from using such a technique.

"You bastard! No. I don't want to die!" She glanced at her back as she couldn't release her skill enough due to this suppression.

And what she found utterly shocked her. With the golden crown with blue jade in the middle and this powerful pressure that restrained her above his head, there was not a single God Rank Expert who wouldn't recognize such a person, especially in this world.

"To think I actually want to do all those things to the Spirit God's servant… I deserve death…" She turned back to Letizia, completely resigning her fate. Knowing that she had confronted the world's savior this whole time and knowing that she would die in this exchange, she felt relieved and guilty at the same time.

She closed her eyes and let Letizia cut her into two. Her anger turned into serenity as she uttered her last word. "I have chosen the wrong side… You shall be proud to become his people… Uh, I am jealous."

Letizia didn't understand the meaning of her words, but she still said, "No need to say it. I am proud to be his serv… subordinate."

Alex couldn't say anything when he looked at the ancestor. He just utilized his Spirit Step Second Step to restrain her by sheer pressure from the Spiritual Energy and his Spirit Crown to amplify that effect. But that last expression of her made him unable to be happy in this fight. She must have realized his identity since she was one of the Goddesses of this world.

And not a single God and Goddess seemed to treat him badly when they realized his identity. He wondered whether he should kill these people or not, but one of them indeed had fallen just now.

Alex took a deep breath and sighed. "Never mind. Snow White Mountain is already on my target list, and I shall cut my enemies."

He looked at Letizia before observing his surroundings, realizing that out of the five targets, four of them had been killed. The last one was Anna's target that seemed to be struggling with all her might to not die.

At this time, Sherry appeared and helped her kill that person, and as expected, she couldn't last a minute.

After checking they had completed their objectives, he saw numerous signs of energy coming from the horizon, with a few of them just jumping off the cliff a bit farther from here and would arrive in a few seconds.

"We are leaving!" Alex shouted.

The spirits looked at him and realized his gaze that locked on the reinforcement and retreated. The contracted beasts were the second to react before Firia and Viola retreated.

"Do you think you can go?!" The sect master roared as blood flowed out of her eyes.

"We can." Leoz came to the rear and raised his hand, creating a few lightning balls that circled in front of him. The lightning started sparking as it shot out a powerful yellow-colored laser toward these people. "Thunder God Cannon!"

"!!!" They were utterly shocked when they saw this powerful move. The sect master and the two 9-Star elders had no choice other than using their most powerful move to block this attack.

"Boom!"
