The Story Never Ends

"This is all I had to say to you. So, you can leave now. However, leave your dragon here. I will take care of the devil essence inside him." Elder Liliana said.

"Didn't you say that you would only help me with it after the task has been completed?" Davion asked.

"I've nothing to do right now. So, I might as well help you with it," she replied.

"I understand." Davion bowed and left. He didn't want to ask anything more.

Seeing him leave, she chuckled, "Hehe, old fogies, just wait for me to reach the middle-stage of Domain Realm. Then I will visit you all."

On his way, Davion was full of smiles. He still couldn't believe that everything would go in this way. At first, he was a bit scared after getting ambushed and thought that he was about to die here. But it seemed that he was only overthinking things.

"She didn't look scary at all. It seems like the old man was bluffing." He thought. But if he had heard what she said just now, he would definitely take it back.

"Nonetheless, I will be missing Ryland. I don't know how long he will be staying there. Hope he will behave properly."

***

A week passed by in the blink of an eye. During this time, Davion didn't do anything extraordinary and just casually went to wipe out some devils with those girls. However, this time, the girls didn't choose to go too far away from the sect. It seems like they have learned their lesson from that incident.

While he was being low-profile currently, his other self, the masked man had turned the sect upside down with his achievements. Everyone became shell-shocked when they learned that he had managed to slay another devil king. The disciples who had doubted him previously could only stay quiet as the truth was right infront of their eyes. Seeing his large number of contribution points and name carved on the top of the stone, they could only worship him.

Not only that, but they also knew how he defeated Liam in a few seconds. Since they couldn't see his moves nor his face every time, everyone was still curious to know more about him and thus he was always the hottest topic in the sect.

Expect this, everything was going as usual in the sect and the devils were being slowly pushed back. Hence, everything was going well for the sect. But suddenly one day, an unusual change happened in the sky above the Thunderbolt Sect.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky and instead of raining, released an oppressive aura that made it difficult for everyone below the Nascent Soul Stage to stand. This was especially unbearable for the Qi refining disciples. They had already fallen on their knees and were even finding it difficult to breathe.

However, it seemed like the sect was already prepared for it. All the walls of the sect shined at the same time and slowly let out a blue-colored light. The light reached all the way to the sky and covered the whole sect. Only then did the oppressive feeling disappear and everything returned to normal.

On the peak of the core disciples' peak, Elder Liliana was looking at the sky with a solemn look on her face.

"So, the secret realm is finally about to open. But why is the phenomenon so big this time? This has never happened in the history of the sect." Before only some ripples could be seen on the space above the Sect Masters Peak. As a result, the Sect Master would immediately know and report this matter to them. But at present, there was no need to do so.

While she was thinking, she caught sight of something with her Diving Sense.

"Why do you never learn?" She sighed and pinched her two fingers in that direction.

"ROAR"

A loud roar was heard and after a few seconds, a twin-headed dragon was already ahead of her. Indeed, it was Ryland. He was growling while glancing at her.

"He is too stubborn, deserving to be a dragon possessing a royal bloodline." She muttered. These days, she had been using her Qi and feeding him with spiritual fruits containing flame and ice energy to destroy the devil essence inside his body. Not only that, he was becoming stronger as time passed due to these fruits. Even so, she still couldn't win his heart as he would always try to escape from here if he finds any opportunity.

It looked like the relationship between that kid and this dragon was too deep. She was envious of it and wanted to know how that kid managed to tame it. One should know that taming a dragon was really difficult to even for powerful cultivators like her. Especially a dragon with a royal bloodline. Although they could use their abilities and tame them by force, there would always be some possibility of a backlash in the future.

However, if she knew about it then she would surely cough out blood in anger as the method he used was quite shameless.

"Even though I can't make him obedient, I can still put him in his place. Hehe.." She smiled and released a little bit of her cultivation.

Ryland felt a dangerous aura and immediately stopped making noises. He even returned back to his small form.

"It's the tenth time now," she shook her head.

"But it should be over soon. If not for the devil essence already polluting his bloodstream, it would already end a few days ago," she thought.

"Let's start today's session," she picked him up and entered the courtyard but she stumbled upon Leyla on the way.

"Leyla, when did you come out?" she asked.

Leyla didn't reply but gazed at the dragon in her hands.

Seeing her not responding, Lilliana felt that she might have fallen into some troubles again during her cultivation. So, she immediately examined her with her divine sense. But she didn't find anything abnormal.

"Leyla, it looks like you've finished refining my Qi and managed to stabilize your cultivation base at the middle stage of Golden Core State. I'm proud of you," She became extremely happy.

However, she saw that Leyla still didn't respond to her. So, she was about to scold her when Leyla finally spoke.

"Mom, where did you get it?"

"Eh!" Liliana exclaimed and finally knew why she was not talking. It looked like she had become speechless after seeing a dragon.

"It's a male dragon that I…" before she could finish her sentence, Ryland had already fired a ray of blue and red colored light towards Leyla.

"So, it's really you.." Leyla cried out and jumped to the right.

"Bang"

The light struck the wall and exploded creating a deep hole. Then Leyla took out her whip and got ready to fight as if meeting an enemy.

Seeing this, Liliana became furious. "Stop!"

Ryland and Leyla both gazed at each other coldly. Nonetheless, they didn't dare to make a move ahead of Liliana.

"Have you met him before?" Liliana asked.

"Yes, I saw him in the Wild Northern Forest during my mission a month ago," Leyla replied and immediately asked before letting her say something, "Mom, who brought him here?"

Liliana didn't understand why she was acting this strangely. But she answered honestly, "A young man named Davion. He is a disciple of my old friend."

"Davion?" Leyla became confused as she had never heard this name. She remembered that man introducing himself as Duke.

"Where is he?" She questioned.

"He is an inner court disciple like you living at the bottom of the peak," Liliana answered.

"Ok! Mom. I'm leaving." She ran out and went to look for him. She was curious if this person was the same one she had met during the mission or not. If he was the one then she would surely have her revenge. After breaking through, she had the confidence to fight with him toe to toe. Although her cultivation base was not as strong as him, as a disciple of the middle-grade sect from birth she was sure to edge him on the basis of her spells and higher quality of Qi.

How could she ever forget that shameful incident? Just thinking about it made her furious. She even had the thought of complaining about this to her mom. But she refrained from doing so. This was because she had never depended on her terrifying background to get benefits from others. She had always fought everyone with her own strength and managed to stand above them. This was all to prove her strength infront of the elders and prove them wrong.

Liliana didn't stop her but rather yelled, "Be sure to behave nicely with him. I've convinced him to help you during the secret realm."

"What?" Leyla couldn't believe what her mom said. She nearly stopped in her tracks and fought back.

"Damn! Forget it.. I will meet with him first and make a decision later on."
