Death… And Me

Chapter 282 - Captured

All of them used black clothes and techniques that didn't show one's appearance with Spiritual Sense. Still, Rean could see Droman's grim face. For him to be like that, it was evident that those guys were by no means weaker than him.

"What do you want? This is the Dalamu Sect's territory. Are you sure you want to find problems here? Just so that you know, I already used a talisman to alert my sect."

Droman could tell their cultivations. Two Middle, Two Late, and one Peak Soul Transformation Realm cultivator. He had only recently broken through, so it would take a very long time before he could even enter the Middle Stage. Naturally, he didn't act harshly here.

"Elder Droman of the Dalamu Sect, right? We know that you have been working on a new type of Formation that increases communication formation effectiveness. We would like you to be our guest."

Droman wasn't surprised by that.

"You want to rob the Router Formation blueprints?"

The leader then replied.

"If you want to see it like that, then so be it."

Droman couldn't help but snort.

"That's really a pointless action. I might as well tell you that once this Formation is finished, we will present it to the Imperial Family. Sooner or later, everyone would get its blueprint."

The man shook his head in response.

"Unfortunately, we can't let that happen."

*Boom!*

All of a sudden, the Formation that Rean and Droman worked on during the past week exploded together with the Formation Hall's elders. That took Droman aback. As long as they had captured one of those elders, they could ask them how to build the Formation. There was no need to have him for that. Mainly because he was the one with the highest cultivation in this place.

"What's the meaning of this?"

The man repeated his words.

"I told you, we can't allow this Formation to fall in the hands of the Imperial Family. However, we also need it at the moment. So, what better solution would be there other than bringing the creator with us? We know very well that it was not created by that Elder Hulian of your sect. Otherwise, he would be here with you."

Droman and Rean didn't know what to say. Droman helped in its creation, but the general concept and idea came from Rean. However, they think that the one who created it was Droman instead. Well, they couldn't be blamed since Droman was indeed the head of the Formations Hall. Not to mention that Hulian was supposed to have no knowledge about formations.

"So you don't just want the Router Formation... You want me to work for you in developing more of those things. But I'm not the only one with the Router Formation's blueprint. My Sect Master also has it. It would be pointless."

The man laughed after hearing that.

"Hahaha! Let's be honest here, shall we? Even if she does have it, she doesn't know how it works. She can try to bring it to the Imperial Family, but they will be far from being able to comprehend it as well as you do. While they would move at a snail's pace to understand it, you would be flying like the wind. By the time they understand how it works, we would have long since achieved our objective."

"You should really consider coming with us. I might as well tell you that whatever you receive from Dalamu Sect at the moment, we can give several times more."

Droman snorted in response.

"That's something you'd only give after you put several restrictions in my body and have total control over me, right?"

The man shrugged his shoulders.

"We can't take risks, after all, but we promise we won't harm you as long as you follow our orders. We can also guarantee to bring you all the way up to the Saint Realm as compensation. If you don't accept, we will need to use force. I advise you to not resist and flee. I already made sure that no one can escape this area. You will only make a lot of the civilians in this city die during the battle to capture you."

Droman couldn't help but ask.

"Are you not afraid of the Imperial Family coming after you? You should know very well that they are supporting our sect at the moment. Besides, my sect members might arrive at any second."

The man laughed once again.

"Don't be ridiculous. Since we dared to act, then we are obviously sure about our chances. I can guarantee you that no other cultivator capable of helping you will appear for at least two hours. Elder Droman, my patience is limited. What will you chose?"

Rean was feeling quite helpless at the moment. Roan was more than 300 kilometers away, so all the Soul Gem System features were not accessible. That also included entering the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Still, he had a plan. Soon after, he sent a Spiritual Sense Message to Droman.

'Elder Droman, did you really contact the Sect?'

Droman heard Rean's message and replied.

'I did. All Nascent Soul Realm and above elders have a super long distance Thought Transmission Talisman for their use. This is to inform the sect straight away in case an emergency appears. However, Garlock City is just too far from the sect. Even if the reinforcements come out straight away, it will take a few hours for them to arrive, not just two. There is no way I can resist for that long.'

Rean didn't mind the rest.

'That's enough. Just surrender with the condition of keeping me by your side. I'm only at the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. They will not think anything about me. That will be more than enough.'

Droman was taken aback.

'Are you crazy? These guys definitely came out prepared. As soon as they capture us, they will leave this place as fast as possible. To be honest, I think they're not from the Sasamil Empire. They acted too indifferent when I brought the Imperial Family's name out. If they bring us away, I don't know what will happen anymore.'

Rean shook his head in response as he replied.

'Don't worry, they will not be able to hide or run away. Sect Master Mia will definitely be able to find us.'

Droman found it hard to believe.

'How can you be so sure?'

Rean smiled.

'Trust me, I know.'

Droman narrowed his eyes. Still, there was really little to no chance of escaping these guys. Besides, that would be while he was all by himself. If he tried to bring Rean together in an escapade, then his chances were definitely null. The difference in numbers and power was just too big.

Droman looked at Rean's confident expression and gritted his teeth.

"Alright. I will go with you. However, this kid here is my legacy disciple. He has to come with me and stay by my side all time. As long as you can guarantee his safety, I will agree. But, if you do as much as hurt a single hair of his head, even if you torture or kill me, I won't move a single finger for you."

The leader laughed before nodding his head.

"That's not a problem at all."

Right after, he threw some kind of pill at Droman.

"Swallow it. Don't worry, this is not poison. It will only lock your Spiritual Energy for a few days."

Droman looked at Rean, and they nodded. Soon after, he descended on the ground and took the pill. Sure enough, he felt his connection with his dantian disappearing. It was as if a wall had separated the two of them. Because of that, he couldn't use his Spiritual Energy anymore.

The men in black quickly descended by his side and locked the Master and Disciple with their Spiritual Energy. They didn't even bother to seal Rean's Spiritual Energy since a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was simply powerless in front of them.

"Objective achieved. Keep those two together as the old man requested. Let's leave this shitty empire straight away."

With that, the five of them pulled Droman and Rean together as they disappeared in the distance. Only then did the other cultivators and civilians come out again to talk about what had happened.

Back in the Dalamu Sect, Mia had received Droman's message. Sure enough, her face went immensely grim after checking it.
