Cain and Lan Rui had finally gotten what they had come from. And yet, a sense of unease filled both of them. A knack continually pricked away at the back of their mind.
Lan Rui quietly muttered, "Martial brother...could it really be true? Will a disaster strike our world?"
She was a genius with tremendous pride. A genius with a heavy amount of determination to face the world.
However, she also knows her clear limits. Wanting to face a crisis that can affect the entire God Galaxy...just how could she possibly do it?
If even a Heavenly Venerate existence seemed dreadful over this, what other person can anyone turn to?
Lan Rui became increasingly wracked with worry. That is, until a warm feeling gently grasped her shoulder.
"Ah..." Lan Rui subconsciously sighed. Her body quickly filled with warmth and security.
But before she got too comfortable, she suddenly stilted. Like a deer caught in the headlights.
Lan Rui couldn't look back. Slight color tinted her cheek, yet she didn't move her body. She only gave out a small stutter. "Ma-martial brother?"
Cain, unlike Lan Rui, stayed serenely calm. His lips curled into a smile of confidence, filled with determination to face a supposed crisis.
His tone was soothing as he said, "Calm down, martial sister. This is the world of Martial Cultivation. Is anything impossible for us? We just need to stay calm and continue down on Dao Path. No matter the danger, we need to face it forward with heads held up high."
Those words struck a chord with Lan Rui. Her soul intensely stirred. Perhaps if such words had even come from her master, it would be hard for Lan Rui to identify with them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCain, however, was completely different. A living legend who continues to perform miracles with the same calm and confident face. Never once he appeared panicked or frustrated. Always calm to strive on his Dao Path!
Lan Rui felt a slow sense of ease spread across her mind. She took a deep breath, calming her nerves.
Nodding to herself, she said, "Mn. Martial brother is right." A giggle suddenly escaped her lips, sounding as blissful as angel bells. "It really seems I need to adventure out more on my own. Even junior martial sister Jin Ya has more experience than me."
"Jin Ya is...an interesting one, that's for sure. But it's better to not compare yourself to her." Cain spoke with a wry smile.
Nothing about Jin Ya really goes well with the standard divine cultivator's norms and behavior. Even now, she stays dutifully focused on herself while also taking any and all advice from Cain.
After the Starry Earth Realm, Cain was honestly impressed by the rate of Jin Ya's progress. 'But now not's the time to reminiscent...hm?'
Cain suddenly snapped his gaze over. His Chaos enhanced sense covered a massive range. Even more than before. Hundreds of miles were crossed in an instant.
A particular sensation soon permeated Cain's Spiritual Sea. Pure power overflow of this sensation.
These were principles of Supreme Divine Laws. A sliver of energy that can crack apart any small planet. In particular, these Supreme Divine Laws violently exuded extreme killing intent!
Being wrapped by the killing intent would feel terrifyingly cold. As if one was a mortal drowned by the iciest parts of hell.
Cain soon curled his brows. "It seems like there's a particular nasty Holy King master in this area. And this guy would be right in the way of us going back home. This guy has been waiting for us."
"For us? A Holy King master?" Lan Rui's expression turned slightly frosty. "I doubt it's those silver falcon members since you had practically crippled them. The only other force I can think of is that so-called Frost Syndicate."
"I believe it to be the case." Cain calmly nodded. "And it could also be another random Holy King master who seems to have this specific vendetta against me. If it can happen with those two, I won't be surprised to see it again."
That ambush was certainly a dangerous situation. Others would even call it traumatic. But all on Cain's mind was figuring out just why the hell did two talented Holy King masters come after him?
He honestly couldn't think of a clear reason why.
A slight chill crawled through Lan Rui's body. She shook her while saying, "I much rather prefer it to the be the Frost Syndicate then. There are far too many terrifying Holy King masters.
"Indeed." Cain's eyes brightly gleamed. A faint sense of excitement sparked within him. "Still, no matter who it is, it's better to stick on the safe side of caution. And I don't want to delay going back home. Now, don't resist."
His arms quickly snaked around Lan Rui's waist. Her curvaceous, soft body that exuded a divinely magnetic charm pressed onto Cain's broad chest.
Tingles coursed through Lan Rui. She nearly let out a sigh. Being in this position was becoming all too comfortable for her.
Cain faintly smiled at Lan Rui's reaction while casting Chaotic Concelament around them.
Truthfully, Cain wasn't worried about facing some ordinary early Holy King master. It would be a simple matter to kill him.
But that's only speaking if there were no other tricks to the fight. Who knows if that Holy King master prepared something to entrap them?
Cain didn't want to waste time playing around. Thus, he took an invisible step forward, teleporting through the Void Space.
They quickly left the once Frost Islands long behind them.
Cain had briefly wondered what had become of the silver falcon members. But it was only a passing thought. Their meeting wasn't anything profound at all.
Several miles forward into the skies. It was at this point Cain had briefly paused.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe and Lan Rui narrowed their eyes to their right, piercing their gaze through space. Their lips twitched slightly.
Cain's guess was right on the mark.
Presented before the duo was an unfathomable Holy King master. His body emitted intense rays of holy light, every streak of glow ripping apart the clouds.
None could get close to him without suffering extreme Law suppression.
Dozens of meters behind the man were several half-step Holy Kings. All of them spread out and lined up in a specific formation.
These unfathomable experts all had their Divine Senses stretched to their maximum. Nothing could possibly escape their detection. Not even higher stage Holy King masters.
Alas, that all became a moot point against Chaos energy!
Cain and Lan Rui could stay completely undetectable and invisible in the skies.
The duo could calmly observe the situation. Just like they had also guessed, these people were from the Frost Syndicate.
With his Chaos enhanced sense, Cain could even pick up what that Holy King master was muttering about.
That mere Holy King master would be feared by everyone in the Frost Syndicate. The prime leader of the Frost Syndicate, Master Lao.
Any trace of arrogance or disdain was off from Master Lao's face at this moment. His gaze now resembled a ferocious beast! Any Divine Ruler would shatter apart beneath this gaze.
"Damnit!! What kind of shit luck?! Just why the hell did the Frost Islands disappear?! That Divine Mortal better not be dead..." Every word of his was filled with chilling dread.
Master Lao never hated so much until this moment. His killing intent continues to build without any way of releasing it...
