Chapter 349: Time To Leave

After securing what she came there for, the Illusive Ethereal Goddess looked one last time towards the Lake Goddess and with a wave of her hand, her other two bodies abruptly vanished.

Like it was magic, the purple body that kept expanding simply disappeared right before the Palace Master’s eyes. They immediately used their energy scan to find traces of it, but nothing remained behind, not even the immense flux of energies that was gathering at that area moments ago.

Outside, Darya had finally managed to destroy the elusive formation, but when she searched for the purple goddess, she couldn’t find her silhouette anymore.

“Time to leave.”

The Sanctuary Master was still locked in a tight battle against the Lake Mother, but he suddenly received mental instructions from his goddess and he totally ignored the enemy to dash towards Lan Xue.

“What are you trying to do, bastard?” The Lake Mother panicked after seeing the direction he was darting to.

“Heh! It’s time to go and bring our people together to our sect!”

.....

“!!!” The Lake Mother suddenly realized what his words meant. He was about to use some mysterious technique, in order to kidnap her granddaughter.

‘No!’ Inside of her mind, the Lake Mother suddenly received a desperate and the last enlightenment of her life. No matter what, she couldn’t let anything happen to her precious granddaughter.

Pah!

Without even thinking twice, she spat a mouthful of her source blood, burning her own lifeline in order to receive more power. Her aura suddenly surpassed the limits that her body could handle and she darted like a lightning bolt, towards the place where her granddaughter was.

The Sanctuary Master felt a cold, swift and silent wind passing beside his body, but when he looked towards it, he saw the Lake Mother’s figure standing beside her trapped granddaughter already.

A chill run down his spine, after he felt the powerful energy fluctuations all around her old body. If she had used that power to attack him just now, he would certainly die, or at least turn half-dead from a single attack.

Luckily for him, the Lake Mother’s objectives were centered around her granddaughter. Killing that bastard and not saving her own relative, would be meaningless.

Lan Xue’s body was totally trapped by purple bloodline tethers, but with her recently acquired powers, the Lake Mother forced her aura into those purple bloodline threads that were binding Lan Xue and they simply dissolved.

Right after that, she used the remaining energy inside her energy veins, to create a huge and impenetrable water shield around the both of them. The power she was able to gather in that desperate time, had reached a threshold she never imagined it would be possible.

Boom!

The water shield was so big and powerful, that it pushed even the ground beneath their feet away. Inside of its area, only Lan Xue and her grandmother were allowed to stay.

The Sanctuary Master saw that huge water shield forming right before his eyes and in a futile attempt to destroy it, his fists collided against the surface of that defensive ability, while carrying all his might.

Bang!

However, all the force behind his attack was completely absorbed and nullified. The water shield hadn’t suffered any damage and the Sanctuary Master powerful strike was thoroughly useless against it.

Inside the area of protection, the Lake Mother and Lan Xue were not even feeling the energy fluctuations created by the enemy. The water shield had totally isolated them from the outside world.

However, the Lake Mother wasn’t safe and sound like Lan Xue was, since her lifeline had unfortunately been burned to a point it was already irreversible.

Lan Xue was still recovering her mobility, when she suddenly saw her grandmother’s body swaying and collapsing down on the ground.

“Grandma!!!”

She swiftly held her grandmother’s body, but a sense of crisis started to kick in inside her heart.

“Grandma! What’s happening?! Grandma!”

However, even though Lan Xue tried to get a response from her grandmother, that old woman was not responding or moving. ????????????????????????????. ????૦????

While that scene was playing, the Sanctuary Master felt humiliated for not even making a scratch on the surface of that water shield and he unleashed his full power.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

He started to consecutively attack the water shield, repeating the process of fully charging his fist with a purple ethereal energetic force and bumping it hard, against the surface of his enemy’s ability.

However, not even after he did it for more than thirty times, there were any changes. The water shield remained perfectly fine, absorbing the force behind every single one of his consecutive blows.

“Argh!!!” The Sanctuary Master couldn’t accept that. If he wasn’t able to secure the lady, it was the same of not being able to uphold with the previous words he said before the goddess, not being able to do the job she trusted him with. And all of that, because of a defensive skill that he couldn’t break apart.

Just as he was about to offer his bloodline energy and his source blood as a sacrifice, ethereal words resounded inside his head once again.

“I don’t need her. Leave.”

Those were the words of his respected goddess. He didn’t know why she had changed her opinion, but he was a servant and would forever follow her decisions. So, he put his shame aside and instantly decided to follow her instructions.

The Sanctuary Master abruptly stopped and shouted for everyone that came accompanying him: “Time to go! We are leaving!”

The Grand Elder Chuanli and all the other elders and disciples that were still alive, felt relieved. The conflict had ended and they were free to return to their home.

Very quickly, everyone made their way out of the lake area, departing from that place in a hurry. They didn’t want to risk a retaliation from the Glazed Lake Sect, since they pretty much suffered a huge loss of disciples in that battle, before the Illusive Ethereal Goddess had appeared to help. They knew that another battle could only result in a total disaster.
