Chapter 245 - Planning A Trap

"Haah…haah…hah!" Ki'Nua gasped for air as she arrived behind a house, plopping on the road as she held her neck, still feeling the slash that severed her head from her body, "Who the heck was that?"Upon seeing that he was targeting Re'Kha, she took action immediately, thinking that he might be someone from that mysterious organisation. Since she didn't have any methods to differentiate them from the normal populace, all she could do was judge them based on their actions.

But, the moment she tried to interrogate him, she was tranced for a moment before her vision spun. Shockingly, the opponent managed to unsheathe his sword and slash her with it. All the while, she didn't even see the attack coming.

Thankfully, she was in her Pranic Avatar form. So, even though her head was severed, she wasn't dead, only needing to expend some Ghost Qi to heal. But, as his sword contained Metal Qi, she was damaged, almost exhausted.

She then passed through the floors and barely managed to dissolve her severed head into Ghost Qi and rebuild her head when she could see him descending the stairs. Using her Ghost Mask, she changed her appearance and behaved like a trembling girl that had witnessed something scary.

And, the moment she managed to fool him, she passed through the floors, landing on the ground before bolting off towards the nearby street, passing through the walls along her way to throw off her pursuer.

Leaning on a wall, she panted, having expended most of her Ghost Qi reserves. But thankfully for her, the fear the people experienced thanks to the attack from the birds and beasts was generating enough Fear Qi that she could absorb and recover.

'I'll remember you,' She gritted her teeth, clenching her fists upon the setback, sighing as she thought of the thing she set out to do, 'Sister Re'Kha will be in danger as she faces the Blinded Ghost. I have to help her first. I'll investigate the rest tonight when I can move more easily.'

She began to sprint through the streets, having changed her appearance to resemble a man in his thirties, acting like a Harmoniser from the Burfuna Re Clan. She occasionally attacked a couple of birds in her way, passing through the rest when she sensed there were no eyes on her.

Soon, she reached the walls of the city, stopping before it as she inhaled a deep breath, touching it once, noticing that there were rods full of Metal Qi inside. If she tried to pass through it, she would be significantly wounded.

Instead, she ran and arrived at a secluded street, bereft of soldiers. Her form crumbled as she returned to the actual form of her Pranic Avatar—the Yali. Flapping her wings, she took off to the air, passing over the walls as she flew north, quickly vanishing from the scene as she sped in the direction Re'Kha was carried by the head Elder's Yali.



Re'Kha kept her eyes closed all along, using their connection to see from the perspective of the Blinded Ghost that was within its shell. All she saw was the wooden wall before her that was old and rickety. Moreover, it was positioned quite close, giving her a cramped feeling.

From time to time, the wearer of the Tikka jewellery—the Blinded Ghost's shell—would turn to look out, allowing Re'Kha to perceive the place travelled by the carriage. And upon noticing the route they were taking, one that passed through a forest, Re'Kha relayed the information to the Yali carrying her. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴøvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

She relayed her plan, watching the Yali snort in acknowledgement. They took a wider turn in the air as they flew in another direction, intending to meet the carriage farther down the road it took. Beyond the forest was the Burfuna Ka Clan's Southern Settlement, the destination of the carriage.

So, they planned the place they were going to intercept the carriage. As they flew over the forest, Re'Kha noticed a stretch of the road that curved a lot, surrounded by trees on both sides. It was a narrow road, only enough for two carriages to pass through side by side.

Upon arriving at the place, the Yali landed on the ground as Re'Kha alighted it, hurrying over to a nearby tree as she pointed at it, "Please destroy its stem so that when the time comes, we can topple the tree with a push."

The Yali nodded and swiped with its claws, ripping apart most of a thick tree's trunk. Cracking sounds resounded from it, as if it would fall any moment. Moreover, the cracking sounds continued to increase, signalling that even if left alone, the tree was bound to fall sooner or later.

Similarly, Re'Kha pointed at another massive tree that was on the other side of the curve, watching the Yali destroy its stem in the same manner. Upon seeing that she would be able to topple it with a palm projection when needed, Re'Kha scurried over to another place, taking out a Water Qi Essence from her storage ring as she activated it, burying it under a tree's roots.

This way, it would remain out of sight but continued to produce Water Qi. She increased its range to the maximum, noticing that it encompassed most of the curved section of the road. Similarly, she planted another Water Qi Essence on the other side, this way ensuring the place would be entirely filled with Water Qi.

With enough Water Qi, she would be able to see clearly through her Water Qi perception and also fight. Creating an environment suitable to her was her best bet in fighting against the Blinded Ghost.

As the Water Qi continued to spread through the surroundings, Re'Kha patted her armour, feeling the Water Qi Essence in it. This way, anywhere she went, she would be able to see properly. Moreover, it would continuously replenish her reserves, allowing her to fight for longer durations.

The Yali was standing behind the tree on the end that it was supposed to tumble down. As for Re'Kha, she was behind the tree at the front, ready to take action as she placed the needle-shaped Magic Artifact on her hip, keeping it to use for emergencies as she took out her Harpen Waves, hearing the sounds of hooves making contact with the road.
