Walker Of The Blue Sky

Chapter 102: Ch 102: Emrys’s Arrogance

Emrys ignored the person who shouted at him and continued to walk toward Ye Yun.

"Is he going for the Mysterious Sky Fruit?"

"How dare he? Doesn’t he see we are still standing here? He does have the guts to make a move in front of all of us."

"He is not taking us seriously. He must think he is strongest among us all."

"Let’s teach him a lesson!"

Several people attacked Emrys with all sorts of skills, wanting to teach him a lesson so that he wouldn’t be so arrogant anymore.

How dare he ignore them?

Emrys still did not take them seriously. In his eyes, these people were truly too weak. Although he doesn’t have any soul skills, the dark skills in his possession are enough to take care of all these people easily.

Was Emrys arrogant?

If asked, Emrys would never admit it. However, the truth is, that the increase in his strength did make him slightly arrogant. He felt that no one was his match. He was now a Gold Soul Master. On top of that, the strength brought by five steps was also formidable, amplifying his confidence even further.

He relished the power coursing through him, the way his strength had grown exponentially. This strength was intoxicating, making him feel invincible. Deep down, he knew that arrogance could be his downfall. He knew he had to be cautious, to not let this confidence blind him to the dangers that still lurked in the shadows.

However, despite this awareness, he still failed to put his urges under control. He felt like no one could harm him now that his strength was enough to run amok fearlessly.

As the attacks came hurtling toward him, Emrys didn’t even break his stride. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a wave of dark energy that swallowed the incoming skills.

The attackers staggered back, stunned by the sheer power of Emrys’s counter. They never expected Emrys to be so powerful that he was able to take everyone’s attacks head-on without suffering a single scratch.

"Is that all you’ve got?" Emrys turned and looked at the people’s shocked gaze. An unusual smile appeared on his face as he taunted them, his voice cold and mocking.

B*stard!

The crowd cursed in their hearts but hesitated on the surface. Just from the first face-off, their confidence was shaken.

But there was one among them who was not scared of Emrys’s strength. At least not yet. He was a fierce warrior with a scar running down his face. He stepped forward and coldly snorted, "You think you’re invincible, don’t you? Let’s see how you handle this!"

The scar-faced warrior channeled his energy and summoned a massive fire that roared towards Emrys. The heat was intense, so much so that the ground around them began to smolder.

Emrys stood his ground, his eyes narrowing. With a calm yet forceful gesture, he also summoned a dark vortex in front of him. The intense fire was immediately sucked into the vortex, disappearing without a trace.

"This..."

"How did he do it?"

"Terrific."

The onlookers gasped in shock, unable to believe what they were witnessing.

"Impressive indeed," Emrys nodded his head at the scar-faced man and said. Then he suddenly smirked, "But it is still not enough. If you want to injure me, you need more than that."

He then suddenly moved with blinding speed, leaving behind a dark shadow. Emrys closed the distance between him and the scar-faced warrior in an instant. This was one of the original skills that suddenly appeared in his mind.

Before the warrior could react, Emrys delivered a powerful blow to his chest, sending him crashing to the ground.

"Anyone else?" Emrys looked at the crowd and shouted coldly. His voice echoed with authority in the air.

The crowd remained silent. Their earlier bravado was already replaced with fear and awe. Emrys’s display of power had made it clear that he was not someone to be trifled with.

Satisfied that no one else dared to challenge him, Emrys turned his attention back to Ye Yun. He could feel the eyes of the others on him. Their fear and resentment were palpable. But he didn’t care.

So what if they were resentful? What can they even do to him?

Emrys did not notice that he was becoming more and more arrogant with every passing second. Traces of darkness started to shroud his original silver eyes. Of course, his eyes only had traces of darkness in them, they were not entirely dark yet.

Seeing that no one dared to stand in his way anymore, Emrys smiled coldly and nodded his head in satisfaction. Then he continued to walk and finally reached Ye Yun.

Mu Bailing had been following Emrys all this time but from afar. When Emrys got into a fight, she stopped and no longer moved. For a moment, she even thought that Emrys’s arrogance might get him killed. And at that time, no one would be there to help Ye Yun.

Fortunately, Emrys was powerful enough to easily resolve the attacks aimed at him. Not only that, he even dominated the crowd easily.

A smile finally appeared on her face as she once again followed Emrys through the crowd and reached Ye Yun.

Then Emrys first grabbed Ye Yun before placing his hand on Mu Bailing and disappeared.

He once again used Node Shift and teleported 500 meters deeper into the Mysterious Sky Valley.

Five hundred meters was not a long distance, but it was not short either. It can be said that they successfully avoided everyone.

"Thank you!"

Mu Bailing thanked Emrys, grateful for his timely help. Ye Yun, understanding that Emrys’s help had saved him from losing both the Mysterious Sky Fruit and possibly his life, wanted to express his gratitude but was too weak and injured to speak.

"Don’t worry about it," Emrys said indifferently, shifting his focus to their surroundings. This part of the forest seemed different from the rest, but he couldn’t quite identify why.

Meanwhile, Mu Bailing pulled out several healing medicines and began administering them to Ye Yun. Within a few moments, Ye Yun’s injuries stabilized, and he started to recover.

It was also at this moment that the three of them suddenly felt a chill running down their spines, as if a great disaster was about to fall on them.
