The Tale of the Devil Sword

"Why did you return?" Eva asked the long haired young man who retreated along side her.

"Hmm?" Asked Liu Zhengnan with a confused look on his face.

"Why did you retreat with me?" Eva made her question clearer.

"Well how should I say this, you see Liu clan previously was not one of the biggest powers. That is until I became patriarch."

"…" Eva did not reply. She was confused what this guy was answering but she did not interfere.

"The reason I became one of the strongest was not because of strength or any connection we had.

It was because of my intuition… Whenever I sensed danger I backed off unlike previous heads who just jumped upon any little benefits when shown.

And this time my intuition was telling me there was danger ahead.

No, instead of danger my intuition just screamed death! And with you saying about the danger and backing off I guessed it would be better to retreat."

Eva just nodded her head and said nothing. But if one observed closely they could see a trace of admiration in her eyes for the young man.

After few minutes they both flew in different directions towards their regions.

"So is this the place of such a heaven defying phenomenon?" asked Avery.

But no one from the group replied. It was not as if she was expecting any answers since they all knew it by looking at the surrounding energy.

It was the same devil qi which appeared earlier when the phenomenon happened. Except there was no primordial qi. But they did not think much.

"We should first probe a little before attacking" Malkam advised cautiously.

Xia changhe just nodded his head… stoically. He took out his sword from his spatial ring that he was wearing on his middle finger of his right hand.

The sword started shining with yellow colour. The power he released was only of 10% of his original power

Just when he was about to release he froze. He wasn't able to move. Sweat started rolling from his forehead. He tried hard to check the surrounding and he could see everyone was in the same condition.

The snake with Avery was struggling to even open its eyes.

It was then they heard a single sentence…

"WHO GOES THERE?"

…which seemed like coming from heaven itself…

Kylo was observing them after Eva and Liu zhengnan left.

He saw 7 beings coming towards him. He was confused why Avery was covering her face.

Yes she was a woman. A beautiful one at that. Even though the robe was a precious treasure in the domain which could hide her face, aura and body it was nothing in front of the {soul sense} which was fueled by primordial energy.

That was the reason why Kylo was confused because no matter which realm if women are powerful and beautiful they would want to flaunt their beauty.

[Maybe she has her circumstances]

He squinted his eyes and immediately formed few more plans for his use.

Then he observed the snake which was and was even more confused.

[The snake is strong enough to transform into a human form but it remains as a snake… He even allows that woman to lord over him.

Is he a masochist?]

Though he was thinking these useless things, he was stunned the most by the cicada.

[That bald one is a special one it seems.. interesting I was dropped in a realm where I will face death the moment I do something stupid.]

They arrived around the area he was in. There was just few kms distance by now.

He already made few arrangements by now. There were few treasures lying around the 'Heaven Devourer' sword.contemporary romance

He saw a stoic middle aged man removing a sword and charging it. Kylo was immediately angered by this action.

Even though the energy in the sword wouldn't do anything to the cave. If they suddenly attack the cave together, it might break.

Even if the cave was strong it was originally an inheritance ground. Due to someone much stronger meddling with the inheritance ground, it is now in a weak state.

That was also the reason why he was worried. Had the cave been at its peak even tens of xia changhe can do nothing about it.

When he saw Xia changhe was about to slash it towards the cave he immediately 'took' one of the treasure from the surrounding and broke it.

The moment the treasure broke energy gushed out from it. Kylo also filled primordial energy and allowed the energy to go out of the cave.

This was the reason why everyone stopped moving. No one can do anything against that type of pressure.

Kylo observed the situation they were in. The moment he noticed the energy was about to disappear he asked in a loud voice "WHO GOES THERE?" He made sure to infuse killing intent in it.
