Celestial Bloodline

When Kyle and Yue arrived downstairs, the scene that greeted them left them stunned. Everyone in the lobby was seriously voting on who was the most beautiful between the two young individuals sitting confidently at the center of the lobby.

Kyle's eyes narrowed at the golden-haired girl in the feathery outfit. He could sense Bia's presence even with his eyes closed, but upon seeing the little lady, he was skeptical if it was truly Bia.

His gaze shifted towards the boy seated beside Bia on the chair, and upon observing Yue's shocked expression, he realized it was none other than Nox.

'What the hell are they doing?'

A sigh slipped from his lips as he looked at the two beasts with an amused gaze. They seemed to revel in the praises they were receiving for their beauty.

He noticed that Bia's eyes were different from her phoenix form. They featured blue slits in the center, encircled by hues of gold and crimson. His gaze then turned to Nox, noticing the lynx's sparkling blue eyes that seemed to hold tiny sparks within them.

Kyle glanced at Nox from head to toe. The lynx hair was dark, and even though he had resumed a human form, there were still two horns on his head and iridescent scales on his body. Nox was wearing casual clothes purely made of divine energy, but even in them, he looked good. His ears twitched when he heard Yue's faint exclamation.

"Nox and Bia are so pretty and cute!"

She swiftly step forward to join the others who were already captivated by the beauty of the two beasts.

Kyle chuckled and pulled an empty chair to sit at a distance. However, he arched an eyebrow as The noticed Bia's unease.

"She is smiling proudly in front of everyone. But she really can't handle, or should I say retain, the human form for long."

He was right because after a minute, a brilliant light flashed, and Bia resumed her little bird form.

Nox laughed at her, saying she can't even maintain the human form longer than him, even though she's stronger than him, only to get a ball of fire thrown at his hair. He cried out, and Sinon quickly conjured water to extinguish the fire before his hair was completely singed.

Bia sneered at the lynx.

-"That's what you get for laughing at me! Consider yourself lucky I'm letting you go only at this much."

She quickly spotted Kyle before flying towards him to sit on his head.

Kyle smirked with a touch of pride in his eyes as many gazes turned back, but no one paid him any attention; everyone was was looking at the little phoenix. He raised his hand to caress Bia's head.

'Is it difficult to maintain the human form?'

Bia clicked her tongue.

-'It is not difficult. I am just not accustomed to the human form. It will take me some time to get comfortable with it.'

Kyle hummed, but then all of a sudden Bia yanked his hair roughly and let out an angry chuckle in his head.

-'I'm sure we have got a lot of scores to settle! I had your back and kept Yue in the dark about your fake inability to walk! And how did you repay me, huh? You destroyed my sleep! The sleep I managed after tossing and turning for so long!'

Kyle grabbed the phoenix as everyone before him started to take their seats around the tables in the lobby to chat or enjoy some food and drinks.

'Don't yank my hair! It doesn't hurt, but it's definitely going to make me bald one day!'

Bia hissed at him and grumbled. This was unfair! She needs revenge for the sleep she lost! Not to mention, she has still got a bone to pick with him for what he did in the tomb! But her anger disappeared, and her eyes sparkled when she heard Kyle's next words.

'I've got many treasures that can boost your strength. Want to eat them?'

All of a sudden, Nine and Alec both pulled a table towards Kyle and dragged chairs to sit down before him with narrowed eyes.

Seeing their serious expressions, Kyle understood what they wanted to discuss. Instantly, everyone in the lobby fell silent as Alec placed his hands on the table and stared directly at Kyle.

"So, how about we delve into what happened in the ancient tomb?"

However, the silver-haired man was clearly not in the mood to discuss it all.

'Bia.'

The phoenix quickly understood he needed her help, and her eyes gleamed with an evil glint. It was finally time for revenge!

-"Kyle! Give me back the treasures I entrusted to you for safekeeping in the tomb! I am leaving you alone to chat with Alec while I go consume those treasures!"

Kyle's eyebrow twitched as Alec and the others' attention shifted to Bia.

'You-!'

He wanted to give the phoenix a piece of his mind because instead of helping him, she was taking advantage of the situation! However, Alec intervened.

"Give her what she gave you in the tomb, Kyle, so we can talk. We all want to know why you put your life in danger."

Nine nodded, and Bia chuckled inwardly. Kyle was left speechless. He sighed and decided to resign himself to his fate. It's not like they would or should, he say, have the power to beat him up if he didn't answer.

However, as he searched his mind space for some treasures to give Bia, he paused when he sensed the fist-sized fruit floating among many others in his mind space.

'That...'

He had nearly forgotten about the fruit after taking it from the elven planet.

The Tree of Fate indeed told him not to eat it soon, but it's not because of that he didn't eat the fruit. It's because after thinking for a while, he had decided not to eat it at all. His fate was blank, and it always gave him an advantage when facing someone who could see or calculate the future.
