Chapter 211 - The Prince Arrives
"Is it over?" Siena glanced ahead cautiously with her sword in a defensive posture. Currently, her aura had significantly weakened, and the red armor had died down. Nonetheless, the weird thing was that her robe was completely intact with not a single speck of dust visible on it.
However, this was still not the most surprising thing but rather the ground she was stepping on. Earlier, Hector had turned the earth upside down with his powerful large-scale attack. But now, the ground appeared seamlessly fine.
There were no pits and no traces of battle could be seen. It seemed like the battle had never occurred in the first place. If not for Hector standing there in a half-kneeling position in a sorry state, then one could have considered it to be true.
Talking about Hector, his whole body had been burned and his blood had dried up as well. It was sure that he was on his last breath.
While she was thinking, a teasing voice sounded from behind.
"Little girl, why are you taking so long to finish him? Are you struggling? I remember how you boasted before."
"Shut up!" She became furious straight away when she recognized whose voice it was. Indeed, it was Davion's as after recovering, he had rushed here at once without any delay.
"Do you need my help?" He appeared in her vision wearing a new set of robes.
"You…"
She became shocked when she observed him. Like her, he didn't look like he was involved in any fight at all. Not only that, but his aura seemed to be as strong as ever unlike her.
She couldn't believe that he managed to take care of all those Domain Realm warriors unscathed.
Seeing her expression, he laughed, "Haha, you need to work hard."
"Humph! Just tell me what you did with them. I am sure you couldn't have finished them off this fast." She reasoned and didn't forget to ask the thing she was curious about.
"Moreover, you went missing with all of them not long ago. I believed that you ran away from here."
The moment Davion used the staff; she noticed him disappearing and had become angry thinking that he left her alone. She thought that he was trying to use her as bait and take this opportunity to escape. After all, the strongest enemy was busy dealing with her and thus he had some good chance of success.
Since how cunning, unreliable, and mysterious he acted, it was definitely right for her to imagine this. Anyways, he proved her wrong by coming here. He didn't seem to be so heartless and evil as mentioned by the Golden Lion Tribe members.
Davion somewhat understood what she was referring to and replied seriously, "You don't need to think too much. I used some tricks to kill them."
"Really?" She had her mouth wide open in disbelief. It didn't look like he was joking.
"Yes. You don't need to worry." He then coldly gazed at Hector and ordered, "Let's finish him off now."
"I don't think we need to do it. He will die on his own." She was in a hurry to leave.
"No, we must…." Before he could finish his words, he felt something dangerous heading in his direction. So, he instinctively pushed Siena away and jumped to the right.
"BOOM"
An explosion took place at the ground where they were standing previously and when the aftermath subsided, they could see a deep horizontal cut measuring at least 50 meters wide.
"Who?" Davion turned his head in a certain direction with a serious look on his face. He was shaken inside as didn't sense any trace of Qi in this attack.
"What was that?" Siena was even more fearful. If not for Davion, she would have undoubtedly suffered.
"Damn, I need to restore my soul Qi quickly." She took out a couple of pills from her spirit ring and gobbled them up. It looked like more enemies were coming their way.
"You are not bad." A calm male voice rang in their ears, and they saw a group of white-haired people wearing heavy black-colored armors approaching them from the sky. They were vanishing and reappearing every hundred meters.
Seeing this weird flying technique, Davion pondered, "Is this teleportation? Or are they so fast that I can't track them with my naked eyes?"
In this way, they descended to the ground in the blink of an eye.
"It's the White Tiger Clan," Siena spoke to Davion in a low tone. The insignia on their chest plate was recognized by her at once.
"Fuck! I forgot that we are actually in their region." Davion cursed inwardly.
Although the Venomous Python Tribe were the rulers of this city, the ones who actually owned it were the White Tiger Clan. As for the Golden Lion Tribe, they were only the protectors brought through offerings.
"Now the question is why are they here? Did they come after sensing the chaotic auras? Or did the Golden Lion Tribe secretly send a signal? Or did they feel my devil Qi?" He panicked.
The more he thought about it, the more puzzled he became. This was because he had been careful since the beginning when releasing his true strength. He even added an additional pair of barriers just in case something happened.
While he was in his own thoughts, the youngest handsome-looking fellow among them took out a tooth and raised it.
"Buzz"
The tooth shook, and red destructive flames were emitted from it. This flame slowly turned into the shape of a tiger and moved forward making its way towards Davion.
"This.." Davion's face became ugly when he saw this.
"It's the same as yours." Siena was stunned.
The flames neared Davion and rotated around his right arm.
"Go away!" He slapped it but instead of leaving, they seeped through his arm.
"So, it is you." The young man confirmed that the person his father was searching for stood right infront of him.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Davion asked while scanning them with his Mind-Eye.
He found that they all had the White Tiger souls with strength at the middle stages and the late stages of the Domain Realm.
"Phew, the situation is not as bad as I had guessed." Davion sighed in relief.
"Why are you relaxing? Can't you see that we are in big trouble?" Siena whispered.
"There is nobody in the Venerable Stage. So, we are good to go." He replied.
"How can you be so naïve? Despite them having similar cultivation bases as the warriors from the Golden Lion Tribe, they are far stronger. They possess better weapons and artifacts. In Particular, they can manipulate space." She explained.
"Space?" He finally understood the mystery behind the previous attack. They must have definitely sliced the space.
"Yes. Like the white flames unique to my tribe, their unique ability lies in controlling space. Thus, it is very difficult to deal with them unless we have some understanding about space." She told him everything she knew.
"But how can we touch upon this subject without reaching the Venerable Stage?" Davion felt that the White Tiger Clan was really overpowered.
"That's why they are one of the four major clans of the Demon Beast World. It's impossible to counter them without having a very high cultivation base." She shook her head.
"Lady, you are quite knowledgeable." The young man clapped his hands and praised her.
Siena didn't say anything more and focused on recovering her soul Qi. She didn't think that they were here to just have a conversation.
"Hey! Answer my question." Davion interrupted him.
"How can you not recognize me? I am Xavier, the first prince of the White Tiger Clan." The young man introduced himself.
"I see." Davion nodded. Now this clarified why he was in the center of the group while the others were respectfully standing near his sides like bodyguards in spite of having weaker cultivation.
"However, I can't underestimate him. His aura seems more robust and refined than them." He wouldn't be surprised even if this prince turned out to be the most powerful one among the bunch.
"So, what brings you here?" Davion felt that the matter was not so simple. Especially after witnessing the tooth.
"I have been ordered to capture the last surviving member of the Flame Tiger tribe. With this tooth, I have been tracking you since yesterday." Xavier put down the bone and told his intentions.
"Why? What have I done?" Davion inquired as he found it fishy.
He had been in this world for just one and half a day. This meant that they were trailing him the moment he arrived in this world. Besides, he hadn't done anything that might catch their attention during that time.
"You dare ask that? Don't you know that your ancestors betrayed our clan many years ago? They colluded with the notorious Heavenly Demon Sect." Xavier bellowed in rage.
Previously, he thought that there was something wrong with this narrative. But now, it doesn't seem to be the case. This was due to the fact that he saw most parts of the cities in ruins and many innocent people dead on his way here.. Moreover, the sad condition of Hector ignited his flames. How can they be so cruel?
