"Even though the array was said to be all-mighty and powerful, it had one great flaw, the array master couldn't be more than a few feet from it so it means who or whatever is controlling it must be around her somewhere" Yuánsù explained with a smile as he observed the opening."Hahahahaha it's been so long that I thought the world had stopped growing balls, hello Fox we meet again" An aged voice sounded as an old man appeared from the center of the array."Huh that man is.." Yuánsù said with shock as he recognized the man from the memories."Yes, Emperor Luo" The Kitsune replied with disdain, his time contained pure spite for the man."How does he know you?" Dì èr asked calmly."He was the one that sealed me" The Kitsune replied as it's senses spiked from Dì èr's calmness."Hmmm, I guess that fits, hello old man it's been a while since I broke your foolish array" Dì èr smiled at the Kitsune then turned to the man."I sensed your aura the moment you entered the valley, I have been watc
"Why why..." Dì èr said in pain as he held the Kitsune in his arms, he remembered his vow to it."Tha..thanks for giving me a.. cough, a chance to redeem myself, now I can die in peace, cough, you don't remember me right?, that battle against your father where you sealed him off, I was one of the people you saved, cough, now this is my way of repaying that debt, cough..., you have to leave now before you die here" The Kitsune said with pain as a smile crossed his face."Dì èr we have to go, we have to leave now" Yuánsù said, he also felt pain in his heart because this small time with the Kitsune had helped them bond, he had observed and seen that he had lived a sad life."And Yuánsù.. cough, thanks for letting me win the game" The Kitsune said with a grin as the blood flowed from the hole in it's chest."You knew all along" Yuánsù said sadly."I'm not letting you die, my master can save you" Dì èr said as his eyes watered, he grabbed the Kitsune and raised him."Dì èr, cough..even if n
Somewhere on a planet called Zenith, a large portal appeared up in a wide clearing filled with sand, several figures walked out of it with differing expressions, some had looks of awe, some also had looks of relief while the others had melancholic expressions like they were arriving home after so much time.The figure in the lead stepped forward and paused as he breathed in deeply before breathing out with a wide smile."I'ts so good to be back" James said with a grin as he turned to the rest who erupted in cheers.After cheering for a while, they then observed their surroundings to see where they were, they seemed to have arrived in a desert with no living beings in sight."Hmm, if I remember this right, this should be the desert of desolation in the Fire continent, my memory is a little fuzzy but I'm sure about this from the temperature of the place but where to go is the problem, and there is no one to ask, wait I sense energy coming from over there, let's go" James took the lead a
"What's the disturbance about?" A sleepy voice said with slight anger as the entire inn quieted down instantly."Who's that?" I asked the girl curiously due to the tension in the room."Hey quiet down, that's the captain of the security guards, if he catches you causing trouble, you'll be banished at night" The girl said with a frown."So you're the one causing trouble over here huh, hey you the ugly one, wanna die" The captain said with a burp as he staggered over to where the fight was about to take place."Did they wake you up generous sir, they don't understand us kindred spirits, if only they knew what it took to be us" Shòuwáng said as he suddenly popped up and placed his hand on the captain's shoulder causing a mummer to circulate in the room."Hmm, I would never have expected in my entire life that someday something like this would happen " The captain said as his expression darkened, the people In the inn also realized that his voice had reduced in tone, at this moment the pe
"A tattoo...., I don't think so" The girl answered with a shake of her head."Try to remember because its really important" I insisted as I felt the girl shift uncomfortably In her chair, it seemed like forcing her to remember events of that day was really unpleasant.'What am I doing, I don't need to add to her trauma and even if she really remembered, why should she tell me, she just met me, just forget it, I already have my hands full with this mission, there's no need to bite on more than I can chew' I thought deeply as I made up my mind."You know what, it's okay don't….." I said then paused as I heard the girl's next words."Wait I think I remember something, he did have that tattoo on his arm…it was of a…" The girl said as she suddenly remembered something, her eyes flashed as she glanced at me."A snake eating it's tail" We both said together as our gaze locked, at this moment we were thinking of totally different things, she was probably wondering who I was while my thoughts
'What was that just now?' I asked myself as I thought back to the aura that I sensed outside a while ago, it seemed familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time, I needed to do a little investigation in this town."What was the trump card?" Mei Ling asked with a frown curious to know."Oh sorry something came up so I have to leave now, it's of utmost importance so please forgive me, I'll finish the story tonight" I said quickly as I stood up then deactivated the barrier before motioning for the rest to follow me as we each booked rooms for ourselves."What!" Mei Ling said with anger as the suspense ate at her mind."System I need you to do a full scan of the town now" James said to the system immediately after entering his room, he erected a soundproof barrier around the room as he sat on his bed awaiting the system's response.[I can't do that]"What do you mean, 'I can't do that', huh?" James asked in confusion.[Me doing that would be considered as me helping you with the mission]"Oh
"Fuck I was so close, I was so freaking close" Shouwang cursed as he stared into the distance where the explosion had occurred."Let's go see what the fuck that is" Shouwang said with a sigh as he disappeared, some seconds after he did, a shadow suddenly separated from the others and gradually morphed into a human shape."Whew he's finally gone, I have to report back, there are intruders who might interrupt our plan" The shadow said as it took out an orb but then it suddenly discovered that it couldn't move, its core was also locked with chains that restricted it from using any attacks."Unfortunately you aren't going anywhere" A cold voice sounded as Shouwang appeared behind it."Did you think you could evade my senses, nice try but you're coming with me, and don't even think about burning your essence, as you can see, I've locked up your mana reserve" Shouwang smirked as he grabbed the shadow and slammed it face onto the ground causing it to fall unconscious."I've got one of them"
"So you aren't going to say anything huh?" I asked with a grin as I stood before our captive in the dimension space with the clones behind me."I would die before I say anything" The captive who was floating in the air, bonded by my mana."I knew you would say that, good thing I prepared something for you" I smirked as the scenery changed around us from the originally bright and lively environment to a dark and gloomy cliff."Someone like you would have done a lot of bad in your lifetime, you deserve to pay, I'll be back for you later" I said as I walked to the end of the life and looked down where a large sea of ghouls in a fire could be seen staring at us with crazed looks."Wait no wait stop arrrg…." The captive screamed as I threw him off the cliff into the sea of ghouls who screeched as he fell into them, immediately he fell into the sea, the ghouls grabbed him and bit his flesh and dragged him under."Helpppppp" The captive screamed in pain as he was dragged under them."He shou
