Chapter 382 – News of Xiang Yun Pt.1

Upon seeing this, Suo Jia said in a low voice, “Roger, go along the right side of the wall, I’ll help you block the left side!”

Without hesitation, Roger began to bound towards the white figure from the right wall. The figure seemed to notice, and immediately turned around to run along the left wall in attempt to avoid the right side!

Suo Jia smirked and waved his left hand, causing a blue Ice Arrow to immediately fly out from his hand and fly towards the white figure as fast as lightning.

With the speed of his arrow, the distance of a dozen or so meters was covered almost instantly. However…the strange part was that the white figure seemed to have anticipated the arrow’s trajectory, and with seeming inhuman reflexes, turned sharply to evade it!

Suo Jia couldn’t help but be shocked by the white figure’s movements. At such short range, the opponent was able to make such an impossible dodge. Was that even human? It was pretty much equivalent to dodging a bullet only ten meters away. Moreover, the opponent had waited until the “bullet” had started its journey before making a move. That was beyond human ability!

When Suo Jia saw his arrow had once again missed, he clenched his teeth and immediately focused on using the Control Fruit’s ability to correct the arrow’s trajectory. Since he’d already said he would block the opponent from the left, there was no way he’d let her escape!

Everyone watched in amazement as a blue streak of ice miraculously cut a graceful arc through the air towards its original target: the white figure!

At this point, all the spectators could tell that there was absolutely no way the arrow could be dodged. At such short distance, the arrow’s high speeds made evading impossible!

“Ding!” Just as everyone was thinking that the arrow would finally hit the figure, a bright silver light suddenly flashed in front of the figure. A clear ring could be heard as the silver light collided with the arrow’s blue light.

“What?!” Suo Jia stood up in astonishment and stared at the figure, his eyes filled with disbelief. For a second, Suo Jia wondered if the person before him was a god. Only a god would be able to make such a move!

But Suo Jia quickly rejected the thought. If the opponent really was a god, there would be no reason to block the Ice Arrow. After all, Suo Jia’s strength wasn’t anywhere close to the level needed to harm a god!

Despite the Ice Arrow’s amazing speed and the fact that they were in close range, plus Suo Jia’s use of his controlling ability, the opponent could still retaliate in attack the moment the Ice Arrow was activated. This was definitely not an ability a human could possess; it was much more superior!

However, although the other party had been successful in standing her own, a deep blue mist had begun to surround her as soon as the Ice Arrow shattered from the collision. Everyone could clearly see that the figure’s speed instantly dropped by a third!

“Where do you think you’re running?!” Roger immediately leapt into action. His legs spun like a windmill, and a succession of six kicks lashed out like a torrent onto the opponent.

If anyone else had just dodged and blocked the Ice Arrow, then been worn down by the mist, they’d definitely meet their end upon facing this new storm of attacks. But the white figure seemed to be the embodiment of miracles; everyone watched her make another god-level dodge!

In the narrow space available, the white form rocked her body forwards and backwards, dodged left and right, and managed to evade every one of Roger’s six kicks within a millimeter distance. Each of Roger’s attacks brushed her clothes, but wasn’t able to make contact with her body!

But after dodging all the attacks, the opposite party seemed to reach her limit. With difficulty, the figure stumbled forwards as Roger landed back on the ground and shouted as she started to flee, “I’m out, I admit defeat. How could I possibly beat the both of you by myself?”

When Suo Jia heard this familiar voice, he immediately stopped in his tracks and stopped the Ice Prison spell he had just been about to activate. Stunned, he stared blankly at the white form before him. If he hadn’t heard wrong just now, that was Nicole’s voice!

“Don’t run!” Although Suo Jia had recognised the voice, Roger hadn’t amidst his excitement. But even if he had, he would’ve wanted to fight first before reminiscing anyways. With a wild shout, Roger bound towards the white form once more.

Suo Jia knew that he needed to cool this guy down. Since he had the Ice Prison spell already ready to go, he immediately released it on Roger!

“Bang!” Roger, who had been charging forwards, was suddenly trapped within a sturdy Ice Prison. Before he had even realised what was going on, he was trapped in place!

Roger stared at the ice walls around him and shouted, “Boss, what are you doing? Did I go for the wrong target? Why…why did you lock me up?”

Suo Jia didn’t pay any mind to Roger’s shouts, and instead focused on Nicole, who was gradually inching closer. As expected, after the mist surrounding her dissipated, Nicole’s dainty face appeared.

Suo Jia looked at Nicole with a warm gaze and affectionately scolded, “You rascal, if you were here, why hide? Didn’t you know that we really missed you?”

Nicole stuck out her tongue and bashfully replied, “I came just when Roger was shouting like crazy. When I saw how unbridled he was acting, I wanted to test the results of my training this past half a year, so I went ahead and taunted him. But I didn’t think that you guys would team up to go against me!”

“Hey! Boss…this place is really cold! Hurry up and let me out…” Roger cried out miserably.

Suo Jia turned around with a smirk. “Aren’t you really amazing? It’s just a little Ice Prison, get out yourself! I believe that you can definitely do it!”

Roger couldn’t help but let out a pained expression when he heard Suo Jia’s teasing. He could tell that Suo Jia wouldn’t help; if he wanted to get out and continue drinking, he’d have to break out himself.

Roger suddenly focused all his energy, trying to break through with brute force. However, although the Ice Prison let out a cracking sound, it showed no signs of collapsing. And as soon as he let go of his energy, the cracks that he’d just managed to make swiftly disappeared. At the same time, a freezing chill blew over Roger’s body.

“Damn it!” Roger had seen Suo Jia use Ice Seal before, but that was something that could shatter with sudden force. But this Ice Prison wasn’t the same at all!

Unconvinced, Roger struggled for a few moments longer, but the result didn’t change. The sturdiness of the Ice Prison far exceeded his expectations!

Why didn’t Roger just use his powerful kicks? After all, Roger’s combat boots had an impressive shattering ability, and anything weaker than the boots would definitely crumble with a single blow.

In reality, it wasn’t like Roger didn’t want to kick out. Rather, he had no room to extend his legs. The Ice Prison was just like a suit of armor that surrounded his entire body, locking Roger in place. How could someone possibly kick their own armor?

Suo Jia laughed at Roger, “Stop wasting your energy; using brute force is pointless. Use your battle qi instead; there’s no other way you’d be able to escape!”

Roger let out a low curse before gathering his battle qi bit by bit. Then, he blasted it all outwards, and with a bright burst of golden light, the Ice Prison shook under the force of the battle qi. However, it still didn’t break! Refusing to accept this result, Roger gathered and released his battle qi again. Then, after a third attempt, he finally broke the Ice Prison and gained his freedom!
