Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 606  Then why is he completely fine?

Zron sat next to Kyle with a skeptical expression when he learned he could also explore the Lost Treasure Tomb. He had refrained from joining the Gladiator Arena because he feared his old bones might get broken, but he would definitely not turn down the opportunity to enter the tomb without having to earn a spot.

"What if we couldn't? The Lost Treasure Tomb can only accommodate a limited number of folks inside, you know."

Kyle nodded thoughtfully. The tomb had a limited capacity for visitors. That's why the Arena was organized, but he was confident that with the right strategy, they could gain entry to the tomb without any issues.

"Don't worry, leave it all to me. Besides, even if we can't get into the Lost Treasure Tomb, the Sacred Divine Land is brimming with countless treasures. I am sure it wouldn't be a bad plan to loot it all."

Zron hummed and opted to sit back and observe how things unfolded. After seeing so much, he couldn't quite anticipate what the young man was truly capable of. His brow twitched as Kyle distanced himself from him and made his way over to Yue, who was sitting with the girls.

The silver-haired man shamelessly rested his head on her shoulder and closed his eyes to relax for a while. Yue was surprised, but she smiled and let him be. Bia followed suit, closing her eyes to rest, while the others closed their eyes to meditate.

Alec and Carcel both felt a bit uneasy because of the supreme-rank strength still flowing through their bodies, making it hard for the duo to concentrate. They wanted to ask Kyle to remove the power of the array from their bodies and return them to their normal strength, but seeing him asleep, they held back from interrupting him.

They thought that once the array in the arena disappeared, their strength would return to normal by itself. However, they weren't ready for the sharp pain that shot through their entire bodies when the supreme-rank power faded away.

Alec clutched his chest, gasping for air, sweat pouring down his face as he looked at Carcel, who was in a similar condition. Lara, Mia, Nine, Sinon, Regius, Jian, and the three old men quickly huddled around them to hand them healing potions and other healing treasures.

However, even after drinking the potions, the two men were too tired to even move. Every muscle in their bodies felt like it was stretched to the max, aching with exhaustion and pain as if they had been asked to lift a mountain. Susan checked their pulses, his expression grim.

"Their bodies exerted a power that was too much for them. That's why it has taken a toll on them. It will take a few days at least before they can move freely again as their bodies need time to recover completely."

The people around him nodded, understanding that the power of the array was too much for Carcel and Alec's bodies to bear, and it's not like they thought that such immense power would come without any cost. This was just a small price to pay. In that moment, Nine's eyes narrowed, and he whipped his head toward Kyle, who was resting on Yue's shoulder, making her unable to move from her spot.

"Then why is he completely fine?"

His words grabbed everyone's attention, and immediately all eyes turned to Kyle. Indeed, the silver-haired man had utilized the majority of the array's power. So, why did he appear unaffected when both Alec and Carcel were clearly in pain?

Yue's eyes flickered with concern as she gently patted Kyle's back.

"Kye? Are you alright?"

He remained silent, letting out a slight groan with furrowed brows before leaning into the warmth emanating from her body. Yue's eyes widened as his skin made contact with her neck, realizing his skin was freezing cold, almost like ice. His skin was always cold but not to this point where she felt like she was touching ice.

She swiftly extended her other hand towards his forehead, and everyone was stunned as a delicate layer of shimmering ice materialized on Kyle's skin before her hand could connect with him.

"Kyle?" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Yue flinched suddenly when she felt an icy sensation on her neck, realizing the frost on Kyle's skin was affecting her shoulder and neck. Despite this, she chose not to move away but instead softly tapped his back again to wake him up.

Nine frowned and rolled up his sleeves, his expression solemn and concerned.

"Move back, Yue. Let me wake him up. A couple of slaps should do the trick!"

The words he spoke were eerily similar to what Kyle had said when he wanted to help everyone wake up Alec. Everyone was left speechless by his words. It was clear that the two men were truly friends. However, before Nine could act, Kyle's eyes snapped open, and he swiftly moved away from Yue, shaking his head to clear his thoughts.

"Ah..."

He let out a soft gasp, and a hint of pain flashed through his green eyes. However, it disappeared in the next moment, and he released a soft yawn. He was experiencing the same, or maybe even worse pain than what Alec and Carcel were going through. Yet, he was already accustomed to it. Thus, the pain didn't really affect him too much, except for some discomfort in his body. He glanced at Yue, and upon seeing her slowly rub her neck, he let out a soft sigh.

"Why didn't you move away?"

Kyle ignored Nine, fully ready to give him a few slaps to settle all the scores, thinking he wouldn't have this chance again. Not just Nine, he ignored everyone around him and reached out his hand toward Yue, placing it gently on her shoulder. Instantly, spiritual energy flowed from his palm, calming the redness on her pale skin.

"Step aside next time if my body starts feeling too cold. It occurs when my body's natural healing powers are activated."

The many eyes that were fixed on the duo shifted to Alec and Carcel when they saw that the silver-haired man was perfectly fine and had the audacity to disregard them all, devoting his complete attention to Yue.
