40 Chapter 040 - Third Element Power

Finding out how strong those people are that's hidden in the shadow. Ba Yue is worried, not for herself but for Lok Son. Those people can't be here for her since she has no enemy as Ba Yue. Those people are too weak if they are here because of her other identity. So the only person that they are here for can only be for Lok Son. Even thought Lok Son is like this, but he is still a prince. And not just any prince, but the one that the emperor favors the most. She has to get take care of those people quickly and get back to Lok Son, she's worried he might be in danger!

"Little Red, if I want to get rid of those people, will I win?" Ba Yue is asking Little Red in a serious tone in her mind.

"Not to worry, young master. You are strong enough if you fight one or two of them at a time. The Han sisters might have their power sealed but they still aren't that weak. And I can get rid of them for you when it becomes too hard for you." Little Red replies back calmly.

"You girls are ready? It will be tough and dangerous." Ba Yue looked at the Han sisters seriously. The girls, of course, know what she is talking about and both have nodded their heads. They will definitely protect their young miss no matter what!

All three of them suddenly stops walking. The Han sisters put down the already hunted animals on the ground. They then look at Ba Yue with a serious expression and get into their cautious mode.

"COME OUT, I KNOW YOU ARE THERE!" shouts Ba Yue.

Suddenly, a group of ten men came out dressing in black and have their face covered.

"Who are you, people? Why are you following us?" Ba Yue is worried since she didn't know there would be ten of them.

The people dressed in black didn't answer her. Instead, they suddenly start attacking.

"Ah Yan and Ah Chu, take care of yourself. If you really can't handle it anymore, run! I'll be fine by myself so you don't have to worry about me." After saying that, Ba Yue took out her short knife and jump into the battle.

Ba Yue start fighting with the men, soon the Han sisters also joined her. The fight was tough for Han sisters since their power is sealed, but they were able to take down one person with their strength combined. On the other hand, Ba Yue is fighting three people all by herself. She can avoid their attack with her speed but aren't able to land any direct attacks on them.

'We can I do? If this goes on like this, my stamina will not last.' Just as Ba Yue is thinking, one of the men swing his sword against Ba Yue. At the most critical moment, Ba Yue was able to dodge it in the nick of time. Her face looks calm, but inside, her heart can't stop racing.

The three men saw Ba Yue blew some kind of powder toward them. They didn't think much of it, so they just cover their nose and mouth. They then wave their hands back and fore to fan it away from them. Unfortunately for them, they are no original powders, but poison! This kind of poison is strong, even if it was not inhaled, it would still work by touching just a little bit on the skin surface. This poison would immediately paralyze the person that is infected.

The poison worked and the three men fell to the ground, unable to move at all. Ba Yue knows that it finally her chance. She quickly ran over to them and finished them off with one single slash to their throat. The three men all die with shock and disbelief on their face. They can't believe they were killed by a little girl who actually uses poison against them!

When the rest of men in black saw what had happened, they knew they had belittled this Young Miss of the Ba family. Ba Yue killed three of them and the Han sisters got rid of one. Four people have been taken care of and now they have six more to go. The men in black can tell that the Han sisters are not that strong if they are separated, so they had one person each to separate the sisters. The other four men gathered and surrounded Ba Yue.

Ba Yue knows that her trick won't work twice against those people. Little Red is not helping them yet because he doesn't want to expose his power until it's necessary. He also wants to observe Ba Yue and see how much she has improved with her training and cultivation.

One of the men surrounded Ba Yue and make his move first. He knew Ba Yue is quick with her speed and movement, so he uses his wood element power. He controls the vines around them and tries to tie up Ba Yue. Ba Yue immediately noticed it so she uses her fire element and burned the vines to ashes. At the same time, she uses her fire to separate the four men and spread them out.

"Oh..she's also an element user too. There wasn't any data on that, we have to be careful now." One of the men said right after he escaped from her fire attack.

"So what if she's an element user, we are all element users too. She's just a Yellow level fire element user. We have two Orange and two Yellow level element user here too. There's no way she can beat us!" Another man said, who also safely escaped the fire attack.

Just as the man finished saying that, he also uses fire against Ba Yue's fire. The two fire attack was of the same level, so it cancels out each other attacks. Right after the attack has been canceled out, another man rushes toward Ba Yue with his sword. The sword suddenly came out of nowhere, Ba Yue wasn't able to avoid it in time. Her upper arm has been cut by the sword, the wound is not too deep but it's definitely not a light cut either.

"Young Miss!" The Han sisters shout out at the same time. They have been paying too much attention to Ba Yue's fight and because of that, they also have some injuries from their own fight.

The two men that are fighting the Han sisters are also element users with the Orange Level with the grade at least 6 and up. On the other hand, the Han sisters are element users of the Red Level when they first met Ba Yue. After joining the White Moon and becoming Ba Yue's personal guards, they have received the low grade strengthening pills and have advanced to Orange Level, grade 1 and 2. They are on the same level as the men in black but their grade is off by a bit, so they can't afford to not concentrate on their own fight.

"Ah Yan, Ah Chu, just concentrate on your own fight! I will be fine! Ba Yue is still trying to avoid the attacks while she shouts back at the sisters.

Ba Yue knows she has to raise her speed if she wants to avoid the attacks and to fight back. Suddenly, she stops moving and concentrates in absorbing the energy around her. She wants to try out this new power that she has just awaken not too long ago.

"Hey, I think she finally noticed that she can't win against us and decides to give up." The man that used the fire attack against Ba Yue from before said with a belittling tone.

"Don't lose focus, she's not as simple as she looks." Another man replies.

Suddenly the winds are picking up and getting stronger. The wind suddenly forms a protective swirl around Ba Yue. The men in black were shocked, they thought Ba Yue is only a fire element user. They didn't expect her to be a wind element user too. Having dual element powers are rare, especially in a small country like this. What they didn't know is that Ba Yue does not only have two element powers but have three! Having three element powers are very rare even in bigger countries.

Ba Yue was glad that she had a fight with the Javan tiger beast with wind element a while back when she was training in the Black Forest right before the annual martial art competition. She knows having two element power is rare already, but she can't believe she had awakened yet another one, the wind! She now has three element powers and right now it's a good chance to try out the new element power that she has awakened!

From within the wind swirl, Ba Yue controls the wind and suddenly shoots out the wind blades. The winds cut through the four men at the same time and have injured them. Even though the wind blades have injured the men, but the power is still weak since it's the first time Ba Yue uses this power.

"We have been careless since we thought we are going up against a little girl. But we'll have to go all out now!" The man in black said, while the other three also agrees by nodding their heads.

Suddenly, all four men attacked at the same time, but Ba Yue was able to dodge all attacks. The wind element power has given her the three times faster speed than before. But that's not enough, she has to think of something to fight back. Otherwise, she's not going to win against them. The wound on her upper arm also prevents her from using her full strength to swing the knife in her hand to fight against those people.

Just as Ba Yue was thinking about something again, she heard the screams coming from the Han sisters. The Han sisters are down on the ground with severe injuries. The men that injured the Han sisters look like they will land their final attack on them. Ba Yue panics and calls for Little Red for help.

"Little Red, go help the girls, QUICK!"

Little Red knows it's time for him to go and finish those people off now. He immediately runs toward the man that was about to deliver the final blow to Han Chu. Little Red's movement is super fast! It is so much faster than Ba Yue even with her wind element powers. With a swing of his little paw, there are three cut marks on the man's throat, blood starts pouring out like free water. He then jumps right onto the other man that was attacking Han Yan and uses the same move to finish him off.

Ba Yue was shocked at the power that Little Red is showing off right now. She knew that Little Red is the God Beast and is very strong. But she didn't expect that Little Red with his tiny body and is still a cub beast can be this strong! The men that were fighting with Ba Yue was also shocked out of their mind. They can't believe that with just one move, those two men are dead!

They can't be bothered with Ba Yue anymore, they have to guard against this little beast if they want to live. But their guarding against Little Red are completely useless because he easily took them all down. Ba Yue went from shocked to speechless. It took all her might just to delay those peoples attack, but Little Red easily took care of all of them by himself.

Ba Yue ran over to the girls to see how they are doing. The girls are severely injured but it is not life-threatening. She feeds each girl a recovery pill for their injuries and then falls onto the ground to rest. She knows she has to get up and go to Lok Son, but her whole body is just too tired to move. She used up too much energy from using her element powers. She's still way too weak and needs to train harder, Ba Yue thought to herself.

"Hey, Little Red, you are so strong! Great Job!" And you girls just stay still and rest a little. We'll go back after resting a little bit." Ba Yue said while she's still sitting on the ground.

"I'm sorry, Young Miss. We are no help to you." Han Chu said in a depressed voice.

"Me too! I'm so sorry, Young Miss." Han Yan also apologized to Ba Yue.

"It's not your fault that you can't beat them. I can tell those people are professional assassins and they are all very strong. If you feel bad for not being able to beat them, then train harder! Train to be stronger!" Ba Yue looked at them and said it with a serious tone of voice.

"Yes, We understand!" The Han sisters replied back.

Suddenly, Ba Yue noticed someone is coming over to her direction. She immediately stood up and stand guard, but she then notices that the person is actually Lok Son! She immediately breathes out breath for relief. Not only for herself but also for seeing Lok Son is safe and sound.
