"Expel," Kael said calmly.
The whole pyramid hummed to life as it reacted to Kael's instructions.
Alora and Xu Ying both pounced at the heavenly beacon with Xu Ying being ahead of Alora because he was faster.
Right before Xu Ying's claws could touch the heavenly beacon, both he and Alora froze mid-air.
"No," Xu Ying panicked, forgetting to remain calm and collected. He could already tell what was about to happen but he was unwilling to let go.
With a ruthless look in his eyes, the runes on his neck lit up and two magic circles appeared in front of his face.
Two magic projectiles shot out of the magic circle to hit Kael square on his face.
Unfortunately, Xu Ying was disappointed to find that his desperate attack had little effect. It was as if those projectiles had hit an iron wall.
Kael merely squinted his eyes, his mane shook, and his head moved slightly, but that was it. It was painful but definitely not powerful enough to cause any significant damage to him.
