Embracing Jade’s soft and warm body, Alex didn’t lose his mind even though he was experiencing excruciating pain!
This place was truly hellish. Not only was he forbidden to use the Cleansing Vase, but he also could not use ice-attribute spells. It seemed that this place did not contain any water vapor making the Great Icebound Spell lose its effect.
He naturally could not use it to block the astral wind.
Puff!
The sound of the skin-splitting astral wind Alex howled endlessly in his ears.
Jade hid in his arms and stared at his young and heroic face with her pretty eyes, feeling vulnerable for the first time… She was his master, yet here she was, allowing her disciple to protect her by using his body at such a difficult moment. She reached out and touched his back, only to feel a handful of blood.
“Hurry and put this shield on your back to block it!”
Jade threw the Mystic Armor at him, trying to protect him as soon as possible… Soon, the shield emitted continuous thuds.
The astral wind’s impact was simply more severe than the slashes of a blade.
However, the wind was everywhere, and it could get in as long as a gap was present.
Alex covered Jade with his entire body and pinned her against the Martello Celia, managing to reduce her damage by 80%. Clearly, most of the blows landed on his body.
Jade’s eyes were slightly red-rimmed. “It’s enough. It’s my turn to block it now.”
Hugging her even more tightly, Alex shook his head. “My physical body and recovery rate are stronger than yours! You don’t have to act tough! Put your mind at ease and stay put!”
“But you…”
Alex could no longer listen to the words. “What do you mean by enduring the pain with her body? Can’t you see that the astral wind has left many wounds on her? Do you intend to kill her? By the way, Martello Celia, you are a supreme weapon, but you seem to be of no particular use other than hammering nails.”
“Nonsense!”
Grandpa Hammer was furious. “Brat, you don’t know sh*t! Come. I will give you a temporary awakening now to show you how awesome the real Titan Tribe is.”
The totem on the Martello Celia lit up, and a faint totem imprint on Jade’s forehead was stimulated.
After a while, the exposed skin under Jade’s tattered clothes revealed a dazzling golden color, as if she had turned into some kind of metal. Then, no matter how hard the astral wind blew, it could only slice her clothes and failed to inflict any damage to her body.
Jade was completely stunned when she felt the changes. Presently, she had some kind of enlightenment, she truly belonged to the Titan Tribe!
If that were the case, it would mean her mother wasn’t her biological mother.
