Chapter 67 - Davion Learns A Lesson
Brown colored aura started coming out from the body of Edgar. It slowly took the shape of a small boy who was only one foot tall. It had a similar face as Edgar. But it was brown in color, had two tiny horns and red pupils.
When Davion saw the childish face, he couldn't control his laughter, "Haha, Edgar what happened to you?"
The kid looked at Davion with anger and huffed. Without waiting for Davion to respond, it produced two brown wings from the back and started flying in a certain direction.
"F**k"
Davion cursed and immediately started chasing. He used his Mind-Eye but felt nothing from it.
"It looks like the devils in the bottom of the Cultivation Pool. But why does it have no breath? Not only that but how can it be so fast?"
After some time, he found that he still could not close the distance.
"I really need a spiritual art that boosts my movement speed. But where is it going? I thought that it would take me near to the elders, but it looks like I was wrong. Is it returning to the city?"
Davion panicked when he thought about this. He still needs to return and help the Sect Master. "I need to do something or else my experience points are gone."
He looked inside his space ring and found a bow and some arrows inside it.
"Eh!, how could I forget about this?" These were the things that he had bought from the dwarf in Mulberry City a long time ago.
He climbed to the top of a nearby tree and took out the bow. He locked on the kid and fired some arrows straight towards it.
The arrows were filled with spiritual energy which moved very fast and reached near it in a blink of an eye.
"Haha, bullseye," Davion chuckled but the next thing made his eyes wide open.
The kid didn't even bother to dodge it but allowed the arrows to pass through its body. Not only that, it was unscathed the whole time.
Davion could only watch it fly away. "Damn, how could it be?"
Then he angrily returned to the place where Edgar's body was and again used his Mind-Eye, but couldn't find anything different.
"Even the Mind-Eye didn't work. I even wasted my whole time here and didn't get anything from it." He was too careless.
"I was so close to leveling up."
"Let's forget about it. I have learned my lesson today. Never show mercy to your enemies. If I was serious, then this would have never happened."
"I got too cocky." He slapped himself on his face and finally became serious.
"It's time to save the Sect Master. I will not make any blunders now. But before that.."
He destroyed the body of Edgar completely and only a space ring was left. He picked it up and rushed towards the direction where he had heard the roar before.

On the other side, the three elders were chasing the lion who was running away with Thaddeus on the top.
"Thaddeus, I couldn't believe that I had to run away from the battle. It was all because of you." The Lion was very furious thinking about this. If Thaddeus could have lasted longer then, it would have surely won.
"It's not my fault. My Qi is running out. Let's go straight from here, my disciples might be there." Thaddeus looked solemn.
Behind them, there were three elders who were trying hard to chase them.
"We can't let him escape."
"Yeah, we paid a heavy price for it. We have even suffered from a lot of internal injuries. It will take us a long time to heal it even with the pills. Our Qi is running out too. Not only that, I even lost my arm."
They were feeling very distressed.
"We don't need to worry so much. He might be running out of Qi. So, he used the Lion to take him out of there. So, they would surely stop somewhere nearby."
"But that Lion was too strong. How did he manage to summon that?"
"Maybe the Sect Master wanted this secret art from him."
"This might be possible."
"But why are they going towards the direction of the city?"
"It looks like he wants to take back his disciples."
"Haha, I want to see his reaction when he finds all his disciples already dead?"
When they were smiling thinking this, a calm voice came from the front.
"Is that so?"
When they looked over, they saw a masked man with a broken blade blocking their way.
"Who are you?"
The masked man didn't reply and immediately released his Dark Domain.
Seeing this the elders looked solemn, "Is he someone from the Bone and Devil Sect? Nobody in the outer region can use it except them. Not only that, this Domain looks far more terrifying."
"Did Thaddeus call for reinforcements?"
"It should not be. I haven't heard anyone being in the Golden Core Stage in the Bone and Devil Sect except Thaddeus."
While they were discussing, large dark tentacles immediately came towards them from the bottom.
"F**k, we can only fight now."
