Chapter 255 - Incinerate (5)
The patriarch slapped his subordinate's hand away and glared fiercely at Princess Sylvia. The flames of rage in his heart burned intensely that it consumed his sense of reasoning. He had come here with a high and mighty attitude to show everyone that he is the rightful patriarch of the Liu Family, but after coming inside the store, he wasn't treated the way he expected to be.
The patriarch slowly pulled out his sword, his eyes red with fury.
Seeing their boss like this, his remaining subordinates immediately held the handle of their weapons while looking warily at their surroundings. They did not want this to happen, but they no longer have a choice. They chose to serve this man, so they could only follow his lead...
Princess Sylvia put on a scared look as she sprinted behind the fourth prince. She then popped her head out and tucked her tongue out at the patriarch as she displayed a playful expression.
"You asked for this!" The patriarch yelled as he dashed towards Princess Sylvia with his sword in his hand. Dark blue light flashed as his true essence surged out crazily.
Prince Dante's worried gaze turned serious as he prepared to take out his own weapon. The opponent was two huge realms stronger than him and no matter how monstrous his talent was, he could still not defeat the guy.
Everyone held their breaths as they watched the patriarch slash down his sword towards Prince Dante and Princess Sylvia.
Baang!
However, before he could even hit the duo, the patriarch was suddenly flung out of the store by a strong invisible force. His body rolled on the ground for more than a dozen times before stopping.
Standing where the patriarch previously stood was a beautiful lady with golden hair.
"Harming the people of my master in front me? You deserve death!" Her cold words made everyone in the store snap out of their daze. They could not help but stare fearfully at Theia's beautiful face.
Theia shifted her gaze slowly at the patriarch's shivering subordinates and threw them out of the store one by one. None of them were even able to fight back and they could only scream with dread as Theia unceremoniously threw them outside.
Liu Mengdi rubbed his chin with his thumb, his smile becoming wide as he watched the event unfold.
"I should have done this sooner..." He muttered.
"Young Miss Theia is so fierce!" Princess Sylvia said in admiration. The fourth prince nodded his head in agreement when he heard his sister's words.
Theia slowly stepped out of the store while maintaining her cold gaze.
The patriarch and his subordinates could not even move because of the intense fear that they were feeling. They finally realized how strong this woman was! Before, they just heard rumors of how crazily strong she was and it seemed that those rumors were just an understatement of her true power!
The patriarch glanced fearfully at Theia and tried to speak, but her sharp and icy gaze prevented him from saying a word.
Those deep ocean blue eyes felt like two sharp swords piercing through his soul! His body shivered uncontrollably, making him looked like a pitiful person.
"You ignored my warnings, so there is only one outcome for you and your people... Death..." Theia uttered in an icy-cold voice.
The patriarch and his subordinates almost peed on their pants when they heard those words. If not for her beautiful face, they would surely believe that this woman was the embodiment of Asmodeus, the King of Hell...
Theia slowly lifted her fingers and did a snapping motion as she said.
"Incinerate!"
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Scorching flames enveloped the patriarch and his subordinates, making them scream at the top of their lungs, but no matter what they did, they weren't able to extinguish the raging flames!
Ahhhhhh!!!!
Ahhhhhhh!!!!
Ahhhh!!!!
They flailed madly on the ground as the golden-red flames burned their bodies.
Theia watched the scene without any hints of change in her expression. It was as if she was looking at something unworthy of her attention.
Liu Mengdi who was still inside the store chuckled when he heard their ear-piercing screams. He held the bloodied cup in his hand and poured wine into it.
"Father, your son is weak and he could only use a borrowed knife to seek revenge for you... but don't worry, I will bring glory to your name..." Liu Mengdi muttered silently as two lines of tears streamed down his cheeks. He then drank his wine without even regarding the bloody mess around him.
Ahhhh!!!
Ahhhhh!!!
Ahhh!!!
The screams eventually died down after a little more than twenty seconds. Because of their high cultivation level, they were able to survive for long before they turned into ashes...
After seeing that nothing was left of them, Theia went back inside the store with a calm look. All the customers immediately retreated as she neared them.
Prince Dante gulped nervously while staring at her peerlessly beautiful face. He could hardly believe that such a delicate face could actually kill without even batting an eyelid.
The fourth prince then heard his sister's laughter as she skipped towards Theia. The little demoness had an expression full of admiration as she held Theia's hands.
"Young Miss Theia, that was so cool! Can you teach me how to do that?" Princess Sylvia said excitedly.
Theia was still expressionless, but her gaze noticeably turned warmer when she looked at Sylvia.
"No." Theia replied calmly.
"Eh? I promise that I will be a good girl!" Princess Sylvia pouted innocently.
Everyone could only smile wryly when they heard her words. If she could indeed be a good girl, then their Silver Wing Empire would be a tad more peaceful, but that was definitely impossible especially with her mischievous personality...
"So it's finally over..." Liu Mengdi muttered as he looked at the bloody cup in his hand.
Step. Step. Step.
Liu Mengdi lifted his weary eyes and stared at the familiar man in front of him with a confused look.
"Wine Master Jiu?"
