Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 480 - Foolish Girl!



-----

Thaletus Jade Snake lamented the death of Zephyr sorrowfully and regretfully, many times wishing to have been there to help the young boy before he was indiscriminately killed by the merciless and monstrous kid of the Winter Lotus Sect…

They didn't know the full story because Shouta never actually spoke about it the entire time… So they only knew of a version of the things which was their own assumption that Shouta followed Zephyr and killed him, envying him for his amazing talent which he didn't have…

Of course, that was bullshit.

But in the end, that was it. The war still broke out and both sides battled against one another.

The Sect Master sighed in anger and sorrow at the same time, frustration bubbling from his heart.

He was an old ice giant man with a silvery-white beard and a bald head, his eyes were small, and his face filled with wrinkles. He had a small snake tattoo in the middle of his chest, which came with the bloodline as a birth mark.

However, as he was looking through the window while thinking what to do in these times, he suddenly realized a group of people were moving towards the sect.

"What?"

"Elder Thaletus, there are guests coming!"

Suddenly, a sect member rushed inside the building, prompting Thaletus Jade Snake to quickly decide.

Welcome them or… attack them and tell them to go back where they came from?

The group was composed of ice giants but there was a small… human girl? There were also beasts with them.

And then as he enhanced his sight using the special technique of his bloodline, Jade Snake Eyes, which temporarily made his eyes shine just like jade, he was able to see who they were…

He didn't recognized the majority, but he did recognize the kid with them, and the two women with the kid…!

"T-Those bastards are from the Winter Lotus Sect…! Of course they are! Did they come here to kill us off while we are weakened? They brought the damn Sect Master! But… nobody else? Is their own sect weakened too?  I see! This woman wants to devour us and then gain whatever we got left… You're more cunning than us snakes!" said Thaletus, as he gritted his teeth.

Thaletus was a ruthless and merciless man, born in a sect whose most techniques were based in the usage of toxins, poison, and assassination techniques, he was quick to act when it was finally time to kill. He moved swiftly across the palace while quickly commanding his troops, whatever was left of them, and moved them to greet the attackers.

He had been raised to become someone that could make quick decisions that would decide the future of the entire sect, a moment of doubt could mean his death and that of whoever was left in the sect…!

"Move all the troops, intercept them! And stop them in time while the other people run away from the back! I will hold the Sect Master of the Winter Lotus Sect, all of you… give up your lives so we can achieve victory!" he said ruthlessly. Most of the disciples and elders were all trained assassins, it was in their code to kill mercilessly for the sect, and to also die for it if necessary.

"Understood!"

Everyone rushed forward, it was commendable how unified they were, compared to the Winter Lotus sect that had some arrogant Elders that disliked the sect master. In this sect everyone worked together and were extremely well organized.

A young woman looked from the second floor of the palace as her grandfather rushed forward, this young girl was the one fiancée of Zephyr… Salaphertise Jade Snake.

"Grandfather! Wait!" she cried, as she jumped out of the window.

FLASH!

Despite being an ice giant, she was a slim girl and moved incredibly swiftly, jumping from a large distance was of no problem for the assassins of the Jade Snake Sect. She knew various techniques already, so while moving swiftly, she landed on the ground and followed her grandfather and his troops.

Her footsteps were fast as she left no trace behind in the snow despite her heavy and tall body, the masterful techniques of stealth that the Jade Snake Sect engraved into their disciples made them masters of stealth as well.

"Salaphertise! What are you doing here, foolish girl?! Go away! Run!" roared the Sect Master.

"What's happening?!" she asked.

"Invaders! That's what happening, the Winter Lotus sect… those bastards have come here to finish us off while we are weak…!" he said.

"What? Let me fight! I am Rank 3, I can put up a good fight! We can win if we work together!" she said.

"Foolish girl!!!" the sect master suddenly slapped his granddaughter's face.

"You dare tell your own grandfather that you're going to die in front of me?! Who do you think I am? You think I am a weakling that I need the help of a stupid little girl?! Get the fuck out of here if you don't want me to knock you out and bring you out myself!" roared the grandfather. He had no time for his granddaughter's heroic speeches, he was ruthless in his speech and actions, but this was the only way he knew and learned to intimidate his granddaughter so she wouldn't try something so reckless!

Salaphertise fell over the floor while kneeling, her face was red from the strong slap she received, tears began to come out of her beautiful purple eyes.

"But grandpa! I don't want you to die…! I would rather die at your side than-"

"SHUT UP!" he roared once more, as he suddenly knocked out his granddaughter with a strong karate chop into her neck, and told a disciple to bring her away.

"Escape with her, quickly, as far as you can go!" he said.

"Understood!"

The Sect Master saw his granddaughter depart from him, perhaps to never see her again.

"Salaphertise… I am sorry… My little girl… Live… Please!" he muttered to himself, gritting his teeth, as he looked back at his adversaries…
