girls admire yourselves later we got a witch on the run lets move anna ordered
as she took off flying in the direction Justin's squad of men had taken
keep focused until this is over and done with girls Justin said as he flew after anna
and her sisters were soon following them by cloud
as they raced over the treetops of the woods
guys the witch and the team is just a few miles up head of us Vivian reported with her vision
suddenly a pair of celestial tiger spirits streaked past them like a pair comets with streams of light trailing after them
what the hell Yuqi cried as the two spirits doubled back and began to run alongside their cloud
who the heck do they belong to Vanessa cried shocked and then suddenly portal opened right next to them
and a cloud flew through carrying two young men
one with vivid red hair and a muscular build the other a smaller lean blond guy
both of them were in celestial form with six tails each and armed
hi, mind if we drop in? the one with the red hair said with an unrepentant grin
I'm guessing you ladies are chasing the witch, like we are it would be better if we team up the blond said
then you wouldn't mind introducing yourselves first Justin and anna said as they dropped in on them
as they drew alongside their cloud sigil rings spinning around them already interlocked and synchronized in case of trouble
whoa the blond breathed in shock elemental celestials
hey im Prince ziesoo of tiger clan and my mate taekwon tiger shadow mage the redhead answered
we have heard of you from earlier reports Justin replied you guys injured the witch
I'm Prince Justin of wolf clan wind elemental and this my mate Annastacia of fox clan fire elemental
and those girls you unceremoniously dropped in on are my younger sisters anna added
princesses Vivian Mage Archer,Vanessa fox shadow mage, and Yuqi Fox Magic mage
wow hi, nice to meet you guys we saw a torn-up battlefield back there earlier was that you guys? taekwon asked
yeah we just arrived from the west and were on our way to the sanctuary but accidentally crossed paths with the witch
and she summoned a demon beast on us and then took off yuqi explained
ah that explains it then ziesoo said
the witch is in battle with someone Vivian reported its another celestial someone really ancient
and immensely powerful your team is there too Justin
hurry we have to get there anna urged
the group flew faster until they could see the residual celestial energy in the air
that indicated a battle was being fought nearby they quickly flew towards it
guys incoming "Yuqi on our three o'clock! Vivian cried
yuqi swung her staff out and a sigil ring appeared a blast of power shot out of it
intercepting a stray blast of power from the battlefield
creating an explosion that almost knocked everyone off their cloud as the air around them
became turbulent and unstable from the blow-back
taekwon threw up a shadow around it expanding the shadow
around the explosion and absorbing it as Justin controlled their winds and stabilized their clouds
everyone breathed a sigh of relief dam that was too close Justin breathed
Justin's troop was protected under a shield in a copse of trees below while the witch was fighting with
a new unknown celestial of a kind they had never seen before above the nearby cliffside
this one was a man with big black wings at least ten meters wide wingspan
his black hair was braided hung down his back dressed in black leather pants combat boots and nothing else
he fought the witch armed with a sword and
an incredible amount of celestial power that covered his body from head to toe in
what looked like purple flames with every swing of his sword waves of power
was unleashed towards the witch she was fighting back with power attacks of her own
but this celestial was just too overwhelmingly strong as his power easily
blocked and beat hers back again and again she wasn't able to land an effective blow on him
they flew down to the troop the girls all jumping off the cloud and joining them
prince Justin you've finally arrived the leader of the troop greeted him
What's the situation? Justin asked who is that celestial fighting the witch right now?
he's a primordial celestial the sole survivor of the heavens gate guardians he informed him
it seems many years ago the black witch wiped out the entire heavens gate guards so that she could seal the heavens
luckily she somehow missed this guy
the gods have been turning the tides against the witch and secretly planning out everything in detail for this day ziesoo breathed
there was an explosion suddenly above causing everyone to duck their heads startled as they looked up
in time to see the witch took a direct hit of a blast of purple energy
she tried to block it with her own power but it was too much as the guardian's power pushed hers back causing a doubled backlash
as she no longer had the strength to control it and push it back
the power blasted towards her chest into her body and out her back directed from the blade of the guardian's sword
the witch released one last dying scream of pain and
everyone gasped in shock as the moment hung suspend as if frozen in time
and then and then a gong sounded in the skies
a bright red sigil encircled the witch's body and then it shattered as the witch's power and life force exploded out of her body in thick black smoke
a purple sigil ring cast by the guardian surrounded the witch's life force
and then began to rapidly be sucked back in imploding on itself as the witches power was sealed
the witches body shrank smaller and smaller
until there was nothing left but a glowing black orb in the air and then suddenly another gong rung
a dark ominous sound that sent a feeling of doom through everyone making them shudder
as the celestial cast a fiery blue sigil ring into the skies that rapidly expanded
and an ominous black doorway suddenly appeared in the air this doorway had glowing eyes on the doors
that gazed fiercely at the black orb
the doorway was giving off an abnormally high spiritual resonance that made the group become weak and shaky
even Justin's troop was having a hard time staying upright
Anna's knees buckled Justin caught her gathering her in his arms he sat down on the ground her sisters and troop joining them
