“It seems I'll have to be serious this time. Once you all die, I'll be rich!” Phaethon, his body enveloped in flames, dashed toward Quinley.
Quinley narrowed her eyes. Showing no sign of panic, she soared into the air with her twin blades.
Phaethon once again used the same technique, clapping his hands to transform his flames into two demon beasts.
Quinley repeatedly swung the ice swords without holding back, sending out waves of frost and instantly freezing the two fiery demon beasts.
With the augmentation of the ice crystal, the frost techniques she utilized had clearly become more powerful. Perhaps that was also why Mason had insisted Quinley carry the ice crystal with her. He feared she might be faced with danger during her journey.
Having been restrained by the frost energy, Phaethon was infuriated.
Jared seized the opportunity to swiftly absorb the ice soul fragments to recover.
Cloud, Feenix, and Aislin protected Jared, as the latter couldn't afford to face any mishaps at that moment.
In midair, Quinley and Phaethon continuously unleashed their techniques. As their fight dragged on, thunderous booms echoed. The surrounding weather shifted drastically, and the temperature fluctuated wildly.
Half the sky was painted red, while the other half was a cold, icy white.
The two forces clashed and intertwined. Without the ice crystal, Quinley would've already been overwhelmed.
Seeing how things were progressing, Phaethon realized his stamina would be greatly drained, and Jared might recover soon. With a cold glint flitting across his eyes, he willed the flames covering his body to burn with higher intensity.
The next second, a silhouette emerged from the blaze and charged at Quinley.
Without a second thought, Quinley shot her palm out, freezing the figure in an instant.
Quinley was slightly surprised because she didn't expect Phaethon to be so easily frozen by her.
However, as she reveled in her triumph, Feenix cried out, “Quinley, watch out!”
Quinley immediately felt a strong wind from behind.
She wanted to dodge, but it was too late. Phaethon, who had circled behind her, landed a strike on her back.
“Hmph!”
Phaethon snorted. With a wave of his hand, he brandished a fiery longsword. Two wounds appeared on Quinley's body, staining her white robes red with blood.
Seeing that, Cloud and the others charged forward, not caring whether they were Phaethon's match or not.
They had to protect Jared because the latter was at his most vulnerable at that instant.
Soon, Cloud, Viola, and Feenix were also knocked back by Phaethon.
Phaethon sneered at Jared before him. At that moment, Jared was focusing on absorbing the ice soul fragments' power with his eyes closed.
“Die!” Phaethon raised the flaming longsword in his hand.
Aislin threw herself onto Jared at once. Even though she knew it was futile, she did it anyway because she would rather die with him.
