"I don't know about it. The Hall Masters are never together, and we rarely see them." The Snake shook his head.
"What do you mean by they are never together?" Davion asked in curiosity.
"Where do you think is the headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect?" The snake questioned back.
"This.." Davion couldn't say anything as nobody knew about it. That's why this sect could remain hidden and last till now. If it was known, then the four major sects might have long destroyed it.
The snake smiled after seeing him unable to answer and said, "It's not that nobody knows about it. It's just that the Heavenly Demon Sect has no headquarters."
"What?" Davion exclaimed in disbelief. He had thought that this sect would be similar to his Thunderbolt Sect but it seems like he was wrong.
"Of course, we have no headquarters, and we apostles live in the territory of the Hall Masters who are scattered all around the world," the snake explained.
"All around the world?" Davion felt some fear thinking about it.
"Yes, our Hall Master Conard is from the Devil World while other Hall Masters might be from the Demon World or this world too. Who knows?" The snake told him what he knew.
"Is that so?" Davion felt that it made sense. This would also explain why nobody could find this sect.
The snake nodded. "So, can I escape now? I have told you everything I can tell."
These were only general information about the sect. Thus, nothing happened to him when revealing it.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Davion scoffed and asked the question, bugging him for a while.
"Since your sect has many hall masters, why don't they team up and bombard our sect at once? In this way, wouldn't it be easy for them to take us down?"
"They would have surely done it if it was possible. But they can't as they are busy with their own tasks," the snake replied.
"What could that be?" Davion wanted to know more.
"Haha, don't you know that the territories of other middle-grade sects are being breached just like yours?" The snake laughed evilly.
"Don't tell me that five Hall Masters are involved in this." Davion understood what he meant and his heartbeat sped up instantly.
"Hehe, you are underestimating us," The snake licked his lips and gave an ugly smile.
"Is there something more?" Davion gazed at him coldly. This snake was telling everything in a roundabout way.
"Damn, I was only trying to frighten him." The snake cursed inwardly but outside he showed a terrified expression and questioned him in a low tone, "How big do you think this world is?"
"Humm" Davion pondered, and his face became solemn straight away. He had a wild guess that was too scary to even think about it. Nonetheless, to be sure, he asked, "Are the other Mainlands in the same state like us?"
"What do you think?" The snake looked proud. After all, he had the reason to be as their Heavenly Demon Sect had enough strength to challenge all the middle-grade sects in the world.
"Humph!" Davion slapped him with his large hard and he was smacked into the ground. He didn't like him being so arrogant.
"This sect is far more terrifying than I thought. However, why are the four major sects not making any move?" He was confused. Shouldn't they help when the middle-grade sects lie in their respective regions?
So, he lifted the snake out from the ground again and asked this question.
"This is because we have experts far stronger than the Hall Masters. We call them Lords. But we have never seen their faces. They keep those elders from the four major sects in check. Thus, it's useless to come here. Not only that, they have to worry about their own sect too," The snake explained.
"It makes sense." Davion nodded and smiled at him, "You managed to reply whatever I asked you to. So, I decided to let you live."
"Thank you, Senior." The snake was grateful. He even called him Senior with respect.
"Hehe, but you have to help me with one thing." Davion dropped him on the ground and patted his shoulder.
Feeling the tremendous force coursing on his body, he didn't dare to decline.
"I will," He bowed.
"It's not a difficult task. I just want you to locate the apostles that came with you. I'm sure you must have ways." This was Davion's intention from the start.
"As you say." He agreed without hesitation and took out a strange map from his spirit ring.
Davion could see many small red circles and blue circles moving in there. He knew that one represented the apostles and the other represented the disciples.
"Let's go." He withdrew his huge arm, and it became normal in the blink of an eye. He then flew in the air while dragging the snake.
"I need to level up fast and become strong enough to protect myself from this Heavenly Demon Sect. Currently, I am far away from that. I need time," he thought.
***
In one of the ruined cities similars to where Davion had met the snake, a male, and a female disciple were being surrounded by two strange creatures.
One was thirty feet tall having a bull's face and a huge hammer in its hand while the other was a pure devil having horns and wings. An odd tattoo could also be seen on their backs. This proved that they were from the Heavenly Demon Sect.
"Avery run or else we will both perish here." The boy spoke while wiping the blood on his mouth.
"Ethan, how can I leave you alone? Avery shook her head and took out a talisman from her spirit ring.
"Eh! A teleporting talisman?" Ethan became happy and felt some hope of escaping from here alive.
However, this didn't even last a second as he sensed some movement coming from ahead.
"Burn it," He yelled immediately.
But it was still too late.
The devil appeared between them and caught Avery's hand which was holding the talisman. Next, purple-colored devil essence emerged from his hand which harmed her right away and destroyed the talisman along with it.
"Ahh.." Avery cried out in pain as the devil essence entered her body.
"I will kill you." Ethan became furious and was about to slash with his sword, but the bull had already made his move too.
"Fissure"
The bull smashed his hammer with all his strength on the ground.
"Bang…bang.."
Huge sharp rocks came out of the ground in a straight line that reached all the way to Ethan.
"Tempest…" Before he could respond, he was interrupted as the Devil kicked him on his back.
"No..'"
He was propelled forward and thus he slammed on the rocks.
"BAM"
Blood spilled everywhere and he lay on the ground with serious injuries.
"Haha, you dare to run away with this cheap trick." The devil laughed as threw the woman at him.
Avery fell near him and she didn't move. It seemed like she was unconscious.
"Finish them," The devil ordered.
The bull nodded and he approached them. Heavy footsteps sounded as he walked.
"Is this the end?" Ethan muttered while looking at Avery.
The bull reached them and swung his hammer downwards. But suddenly it ceased in the air. In addition, he heard a calm voice in his ears.
"It's enough."
He looked down and saw a masked man standing infront of him calmly. This annoyed him. So, he applied much force in his hammer and tried to smash him down. Nevertheless, it still didn't move as he felt a tremendous aura pushing it back.
"Who are you?" The bull had beads of sweat on his forehead. Not only was this person powerful, but he also didn't even notice when he had come here.
"You.."
Ethan recognized him, but he couldn't say anything as had become speechless with the strength displayed by him. He couldn't believe that the hammer was blocked without even touching it.
"Take her and go to the side. I will finish this in a jiffy," Davion instructed.
Ethan finally came to his senses and replied, "Yes, yes. Thank you."
He stood up and ran while carrying Avery on his back.
"You think you can leave?" The devil bellowed in anger and dashed in that direction.
"Humph!" Davion glanced at him in disdain and disappeared from his spot. Then in the blink of an eye, he was already ahead of the devil.
"How can you be so fast?" The devil was shocked. This was because his ability depended on speed and he was as fast as light. But the person managed to stop him.
"Maybe you are weak?" Davion mocked him and punched him straight in the face. However, the devil swiftly sidestepped and threw a fist at him.
"BAM"
It landed on Davion's face, and he felt some pain. But it was not enough to make him budge. It looked like the physical strength of this devil was quite feeble compared to others.
