Chapter 744: The Wind King Ape Part 2

The wind king ape snorted in anger but still kept its distance. It paced back and forth for a while, trying to figure out what it should do. It could not attack recklessly, or it would be asking to be faced with the strange power that its instincts are telling it to run away from, that if he got too close, it would die instantly. After a few minutes, it finally decided on a  solution. "Little girl, let"s do this. I will ignore your intrusion, and you be on your way."

"Nope!" Kana answered without hesitation. "I need to bring your head and beast core back, or I won"t get my contribution points from the sect. So you can either fight or stand there while I take it. Either way, here I come!" 

Kana stepped on air and shot forward. Her sudden speed and killing intent made the wind king ape panic. "You d.a.m.n brat!" The wind king ape yelled out. It really did not wish to die, nor did it wish to fight this strange girl. She was obviously weak, but the strange power inside her made him want nothing to do with her!

Kana"s strike quickly arrived at the wind king ape, her sword slas.h.i.+ng down with a wave of sword qi shooting out. "d.a.m.n it!" The wind king ape shouted out. He crossed his arms in front of him to block the incoming attack. But the sword qi still sunk in into his flesh, causing a wound. "Arrrgh!"

"Die!" It roared as it retaliated and jumped backward, trying to make s.p.a.ce once more. It then opened its mouth and shot out a compressed ball of wind that had turned into plasma at Kana. 

But before it could even reach her, a wall of ice formed in front of Kana. "Don"t think of hurting my mama!" 

"Kori, good job!" Kana yelled out with a big smile on her face as she charged back in for another attack. Deep down, even she was scared of the ball of plasma, she was just hiding it so that the wind king ape would not realize it. Although she could have dodged it, that attack just now, if it were to hit her, it could have killed her in a single attack. Kori felt happy to hear her mama praise her. She was glad she could be of use.

"You stupid brats!" The wind king ape raged. He couldn"t take it anymore. The two both had these strange auras that made him feel fear in the deepest parts of his soul. With no other options since he knew he could not get close nor kill the two brats with them working together, he only had one choice. Run!

The huge wind king ape turned tail and ran. "What!? Why are you running!?  Be a man and fight me!" 

"What man!? I"m a monkey! You freaky girl!" The wind king ape…. Wind king monkey yelled back, not slowing its steps at all.

"Who are you calling a freaky girl!? You -You dirty ape!" Kana felt like she was five years old, shouting out such retorts, but she couldn"t think of anything else! She turned and picked up Kori and gave chase after the wind king ape. "Slow down!" 

"I will try to block him in, Mama."  Kori"s eyes flashed, and a large wall of ice formed in front of the wind king ape. That caused him to roar in frustration, but he was quick on his feet and quickly changed directions. Kori would have tried to freeze its feet but the wind king ape was too quick for her to lock on to it.

"Just leave me alone!" The wind king ape yelled out. He was so close to becoming a divine beast! He did not wish to die now!

"I will if you give me your beast core and head!" Kana yelled back while firing off blades of sword qi. Some missed, while some hit their mark. 

The wind king ape could feel a strange power running rampant within its body, but it had no time to even try to purge it out. He didn"t even know if he could purge it out since he had never come across such a strange power before. As for Kana, she only had to wait. She could just keep hitting the wind king ape with her sword qi, and eventually, it would begin to slow as its life force is slowly being consumed. 

With Kori in one arm and her sword in the other, she continued chasing and attacking the wind king ape. The chase went on for half a day before the wind king ape finally began to show signs of being affected by the death element in its system as its speed began to slow. But the pride of the wind king ape would not allow Kana to get what she wanted so easily. As it felt its life force slowly draining away, it finally slowed down to a stop. It turned and looked at Kana, its lips curling up into a sneer. "Since I am going to die, I will just take you wi…."

*Booom!* 

Kana and Kori"s clothes and hair fluttered as a wave of energy pa.s.sed by them, completely annihilating the entire mountain peak. What stood in front of them was a cliff edge with no trace of the wind king ape nor the mountain peak itself. "You really made me look for you, little ice girl."

Kana felt Kori squeeze her neck as she looked up at the man in the sky. He wore a black cloak and had pale white skin that was almost transparent. On his shoulders were bone skulls of some kind of creature. But what caught Kana"s eyes the most was the staff in his hand that looked to be some kind of technology. Even his boots and belt were glowing with lights.  But the power he just showed was beyond anything Kana had seen so far on this world. In truth, she was scared. This man really frightened her.

"I will only say this once. Come here, little ice girl." The man"s cold gaze landed on Koir before looking at Kana and smiling sinisterly. "And as for you, who took what belongs to me, you can just die." The strange man"s eyes glowed as he raised his staff. A bright ball of light began to form at the top of it and shot out straight at Kana!
