The Story Never Ends

In the streets, people were escaping towards the cities near the Sect and the devils were chasing after them. But suddenly an icy beam of light came from behind which easily froze most of the devils on the ground.

The devils who were flying became alarmed after they saw this. They were about to turn back when flaming arrows started raining down upon them. Many of them were pierced and crashed on the ground. Then they started burning due to the flames. However, the strange thing was that nobody died as the flames immediately stopped after a few seconds.

Seeing this, the devils thought that they had a chance to flee. Yet, they were too naive. Large roots emerged out from the ground which surrounded all of them in the vicinity including the frozen ones. The roots tied them up and dragged them in a certain direction.

"Amazing!" Davion who saw everything exclaimed and praised them.

"I could have never imagined that you girls could work so flawlessly." The moment Mia struck with her icy sword light, to how Amelia incapacitated the flying devils with her flaming arrows and the plant elemental spell casted by Stella to bring them to him was perfectly executed. Especially these roots, it was his first time seeing someone casting a plant-based spell.

"Thank you, Senior Brother for your compliment. We have been doing missions together for a long time. So, it's easy for us. Nonetheless, this is not worth mentioning infront of you," Stella praised him too.

"Haha, I believe that you girls will be able to catch up soon." Davion laughed.

"Humph, why don't you care of those devils first? We still have a lot remaining," Mia coldly said.

"This girl.." Davion sighed and set his sights on the devil that were tied up.

"Thunder Domain"

Streaks of lightning gathered around them and they died in the blink of an eye. Only burnt corpses was left behind.

"This was why I said to let me have the finishing blow." Davion thought of a valid reason. 

The girls had their mouths wide open. They couldn't believe that he was this strong. Stella finally understood why he was favored by Elder Liliana. But there was one thing that was bugging her mind. With this strength, why was he still staying in the bottom courtyard?

Mia and Amelia also had the similar thoughts. However, they were confused about how could he use lightning energy. They had fresh memory of being beaten by his dark energy. Earlier they had thought that it was the lightning energy stored in that halberd and its ability but it seems that they were completely wrong.

"Don't tell me he possesses a dual attribute spiritual root?" Mia whispered to Amelia.

"I think this should be the case. I heard that only the top disciples of the four major sects have such dual attribute spiritual roots," Amelia said.

"He is really terrifying in terms of both talent and strength," Although Mia didn't like him, she couldn't help but respect him.

"Why does this sound similar?" Amelia pondered.

"Eh!" Mia exclaimed when she heard where Amelia was pointing to.

"Are you thinking about the masked man?" Mia asked with a shaky voice.

Amelia nodded and looked at Davion carefully. She was without a doubt interested in getting to know more about him.

"Girls, you are doing it again," Davion reminded them.

"Oh! Sorry." They gave an embarrassing look and went to stop those remaining devils.

"Being handsome is a bit troublesome…" Davion muttered.

***

An hour later, almost all the devils have been wiped out from the city and the peoples have already been evacuated. Even though some devils managed to escape, they felt tired to chase them. So, they were sitting cross-legged on the ground and meditating to recover their Qi.

On the ground, there were corpses of hundreds of devils and lots of devil minions. Few distance away from it, lay ten unique large corpses which still radiated a dangerous aura. Thus, one could easily recognize that these bodies were of the devil commanders.

"They really benefited a lot this time." Davion thought while looking at these corpses. 

"However, it's not that I didn't get anything. Although these ten devils are quite good, the most important thing for me are the contribution points. Now I am close to level up and the most surprising thing is that I can finally learn the Devil Soul Art." Indeed, Davion had enough experience points to learn this art at last.

"I should return back to the sect and learn it immediately." Excitement could be seen on his face. But it didn't last long as he heard a female crying out from the right.

"Please save my children. Someone." He looked over and saw a mature woman wearing tattered clothes approaching towards their direction.

"How could someone still remain here?" Stella stood up and gazed at her suspiciously.

"Yeah, is she some type of devil transformed into a human?" Mia even took her sword and got prepared if something happened. The same goes for Amelia.

Davion also had this same thought as he had already seen the children who could transform into a devil. He used his Mind-Eye and tried to see through her and found no traces of devil essence. Even so he still couldn't completely trust her. 

Thus, he coldly asked, "Who are you? You should know that everyone had already evacuated."

Yet, he saw that the old woman didn't reply to him but directly started kowtowing. She then begged, "Please believe me. I'm not lying. I was hiding in the basement with my children. But who could have thought that suddenly an explosion would take place and blow up my whole house?"

She even started shedding off tears. Her tattered clothes, some wounds on her body and this action made her seem very miserable.

Seeing this, the girls had a soft spot in their hearts and Stella was the first one to speak. "Maybe she might be really telling the truth."

Mia and Amelia glanced at each other and nodded their heads. If she was a devil, then she shouldn't have been able to act this realistically while showing such emotions.

Davion didn't know what to say. Thus, he could only ask, "Then what happened later on?"

She wiped her tears and replied, "I don't know. I had passed out due to the explosion and when I woke up, I found that my whole house had already collapsed. Not only that, my children were even missing."

After listening to this, Stella neared her and comforted her by patting her shoulders. Then she asked, "Did you find any clues?"

"Yes, I slowly came out from the ruins and saw two devils taking away my children." Anger could be seen on her face.

"Humm, but why did they leave you?" Davion questioned her as he found too many loopholes in her narration.

The woman shook her head and shed more of her tears.

"Senior Brother, how can you go so harsh on her?" Stella didn't like it.

"Why don't we try to search for them?" Amelia who hadn't spoken for a while finally opened her mouth.

"Maybe she is leading us somewhere." Davion still had a cold on his face.

"Hehe, Senior Brother, what are you scared of? Even if she leads us somewhere you promised to protect us all." Mia mocked him.

"Did I really say that?" Davion pretended to forget it. Actually, he was in a hurry to reach the sect and learn the Devil Soul Art. So, he didn't want to waste any time here with this suspicious woman.

"When will those disciples from the sect come? I had already sent them the information a few hours ago." He thought and glanced at the people who were fighting far away.

"Will we all fall here?" He felt dejected.

Since everyone was busy fighting, nobody noticed that a beam of blue color light was descending down from the sky and coming straight towards the head of the four-armed devil.

"Whom do I taste first?" The devil showed an ugly smile and approached them slowly.

"Grandpa.." Alex got scared and gripped onto his body more tightly.

"Just close your eyes and everything will be fine." The old man sighed.

Alex nodded and closed his eyes and the same goes for the old man. 

"Hehe, how could it be so easy?" The devil was about to catch both of them with its large hand when suddenly it felt a huge terror coming from above.

"This.." Before it could respond, the beam of light crashed into him and an explosion took place.

"BOOM"

"What happened?" The old man opened his eyes and was shocked by what he saw.

The ground ahead of him had already sunk a few meters deep and that devil had been pinned on the ground with a halberd which was still radiating lightning from it.

"Wow, grandpa. You are a prophet. A miracle happened." Axel exclaimed and was full of praises for his grandpa.

The old man had black lines on his face and didn't even know what to say.

"Maybe the disciples have finally come here for the rescue?" While he was in deep thought, he felt some movement above him.

When he looked over, he saw a beautiful lotus descending ahead of him.. From there he saw a group of disciples coming out.
