At the same time, two masses of black and white gases gathered high up in the sky above the Telhervo Holy Site to form a Tai Chi diagram.
The Livius Heavenly Path, who spotted the Tai Chi diagram, frowned.
He generated more Heavenly Path Power and cast it over the hall on the ground to form several layers of barrier.
“Abelard, you broke the Law of Tai Chi and tried to help that devil of a man! Do you wish to be annihilated?!”
Tai Chi sounded extremely furious as her voice came from that sinister-looking Tai Chi diagram.
Abelard drew a long breath and said, “He’s my master. I must help him now that he is facing a crisis.”
“How impertinent!” Tai Chi raged.
A bolt of lightning shining with black and white lights that was released from the Tai Chi diagram struck Abelard and sent him flying away.
He steadied himself in the distance and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Then, Abelard slowly raised his head as he clutched his chest. A small smile hung on his face.
“Are you still not repenting for your mistakes?” Tai Chi shouted, “What has he done for you to make you break the rules for him like this?”
“We are friends who have sworn to help each other no matter the circumstances.” Abelard replied calmly, “Also, he was the first person to treat me sincerely as a friend.”
“Shut up!” Another lightning bolt hit Abelard and made him drop to his knees.
Abelard spat out more blood this time. Still, he pushed himself up to his feet.
“Kneel!” Tai Chi cast another three lightning bolts to force Abelard on his knees. Then, she conjured the Elemental Lightning Cloud to keep him in that position.
She even allowed them to use any method to prevent the humans from leveling up.
The other Great Heavenly Paths might carry out Tai Chiʼs orders dutifully, but not Abelard. It was because his master, a human, was the first person to treat him with sincerity.
Earlier, the Light Heavenly Path visited Abelard and informed him about James’ situation. Abelard agreed to come with her despite the risk of violating the Law of Tai Chi.
They thought they could secretly help James since Tai Chi would be busy healing her injuries. Still, Tai Chi managed to catch them.
Abelard swiftly decided to hold Tai Chi back even if it would cost his life. He needed to buy enough time for the Light Heavenly Path to help James through this.
Various thoughts went through Abelardʼs mind during the short few seconds. Then, he smiled slightly.
“Can you really say that the Law of Tai Chi is valid?”
