The Story Never Ends

"It hurts." The little girl suddenly clutched her head in pain and soon passed out. It seemed as if the information passed down to her was too huge for a mortal like her to handle.

The nearby people noticed this at once and finally came back to their senses.

"What happened to her?"

"Did the immortal punish her?"

"Is she alive?"

They gossiped with each other. Nevertheless, they didn't dare to approach her and check her condition, thinking that the immortals were still there.

Although they saw them getting struck by something, they didn't want to take the risk. So, they all left hurriedly, taking this opportunity.

Only the poor little girl who had brushes and dirt on her cute face was left behind.

Somewhere in the distance, Davion sighed, "I should have left them to die."

"Indeed. How can they be so heartless?" Siena agreed with him.

"What selfish creatures!" She disdained them as she finally realized why demon beasts were taught not to trust humans.

"Anyways, you are quite generous. Are you planning to take her in as your disciple?" She had clearly noticed him transmitting knowledge to that girl using his soul Qi.

"I'm too young for that." He shook his head.

"The reason why I helped her was that I simply found her pitiful. Also, seeing how courageous she was, makes me believe that she is someone who can accomplish greater things in the future."

Listening to his calm voice, Siena felt that she was speaking to an elder of her clan as he sounded like an expert who had vast knowledge.

Thus, she curiously asked, "How old are you at the moment?"

"Humm!" He thought for a while and replied, "Should be around 20."

Counting the time, he spent on this world with the time on Earth; he guessed his current age.

"What? Don't lie to me. Furthermore, how can you have such a high cultivation base at such a young age?" Even if he cultivated in his mother's womb, it would be impossible to have cultivated to this extent. It was utterly impossible. Hence, she had the right to doubt him.

"Haha, this is the difference between you and a genius like me. It's like comparing the distance between heaven and earth." He boasted smugly.

"You. Forget it." She didn't want to talk with him anymore.

"Why does your reaction tell me that you are a 60 years old grandma?" He wanted to know her age as well.

"Phoenixes at this age are still considered youngsters. Our average lifespan is far greater than what you can imagine." She replied in a furious tone.

"I see." He nodded and stopped teasing her.

He then turned back and gazed at the pit near his feet.

Inside, six hideous-looking men were drenched in blood. Not only that, but sword energies were levitating a few centimeters ahead of their necks. As a result, they were cowering in fear and not attempting to move.

"Bastards of the Heavenly Demon Sect, what are you all doing here? What is the reason for preventing the people from the Inner Regions from entering here?" Davion inquired coldly, sending shivers down their spines.

"What! How do you know?" They panicked with disbelief written all over their faces. The same went for Siena too. How did he know their background?

"Fools! Is that even a question to ask?" Davion scoffed and began explaining.

"Who in the world can give birth to six Nascent Soul Stage Experts in this wasteland? Especially, I have already sensed the devil essence within you guys." He furrowed his brows and terrifying pressure burst forth from him.

"BAM"

Their faces met the ground like how the little girl had been bullied with his sword energies hanging straight on the back of their necks.

"Answer me or else you all can forget about living." He threatened them.

"How can we be sure that you will let us live?" One of the men couldn't take this shame any longer.

"Humph!" Davion snapped his fingers and blood splattered everywhere as his head rolled off on the ground.

"Sheesh," Everyone sucked in a cold breath and glanced at Davion with trepidation. They couldn't believe he would be so impatient and cruel.

"You guys are in no position to bargain with me." He grinned evilly.

"Lord, we were stationed here on the orders of our Hall Master. He told us not to kill but rather to force the people back. As for the reason, we don't know." Jaxon told what he knew, hoping that Davion would let them go.

"Not to kill?" Siena was puzzled. How can the notorious Heavenly Demon Sect pass down this weird order? Weren't they known for being bloodthirsty and vicious? Plus, what was the reason for sending those people back?

"Who is your Hall Master?" Davion asked. It looked like he had to capture the one behind the scenes to know the truth.

"It's Devil Emperor Cona…" Before Jaxon could finish his sentence, Davion raised his hand and closed his palm.

"Puchi-"

Their heads were chopped off in an instant as his remaining sword energies did their jobs.

"You.."

They died with their eyes wide open in a state of bewilderment. They wanted to know why.

"How can you be so rash? We could have gotten more details from them." Siena put her hand on her forehead in regret.

"Nah! It's useless. If we tried to interrogate them more, then they would automatically die. You don't know the mysterious means of the Heavenly Demon Sect." Davion's face became solemn.

"All their members have sold their souls to someone over there. If they betray or try to divulge any important things, then they would painfully die. That's why it's not good to force them." He briefly described how brutal they were.

"I didn't know that." She muttered in understanding.

"Besides, there is no need for us to worry. I think we can get some clues there." He gazed in a certain direction with some emotion in his eyes.

"Don't tell me he is targeting that place once again." His eyes glinted frigidly.

"Follow me. We don't have much time." Without waiting for her response, he dashed ahead as fast as he could.

"Eh! Where am I?" The little girl slowly stood up by clutching her head. When she noticed that there was no one around here, she felt nervous. Nonetheless, remembering the unknown senior who had saved her earlier, calmed her down.

"Senior Davion!" So, she yelled his name eagerly, anticipating that he was somewhere here.

However, there was no reply. Just the sound of whistling of trees and chirping of birds could be heard.

"Did he leave?" Despite feeling disappointed, she stood there expectantly for a couple of hours.

"Growl"

Only when her stomach rumbled due to hunger, did she ultimately give up. Not only that, but the sky was getting darker. Since she was near the Wild Northern Forest, it was not good to stay here any longer.

Thus, she reluctantly left. But she abruptly stopped after taking a few steps and looked back for the last time.

"Senior, thank you for your grace." She bowed and ran away from there.

On the way, she couldn't help but shed some tears. "Father, mother, and brother, I will definitely take revenge for you all. I will kill every single one of them."

"Moreover, I will find the Senior as well." Determination was seen on her childish face.

***

Once the sun went down and the night came, an unknown visitor appeared in the territory of the Bone and Devil Sect. He steadily moved like a shadow and nobody in the vicinity either saw him or felt his existence.

"The Dark Moon City," He muttered and recalled some of its information.

"After the previous conference, the Bone and the Devil Sect regained control of this city and the spirit mine here. On top of that, they took in several disciples, resulting in them to gradually develop with time."

"It's impressive to think that they could turn around the situation when we were secretly suppressing them from the start. I heard it was all due to them taking a talented disciple."

"That disciple even managed to kill one of the seeds of our lord. But the strange thing is that nobody has seen him ever again. Is he trying to break through a higher realm or did he leave for the inner regions?"

Having these thoughts, he reached the door of the Bone and Devil Sect and two young disciples appeared in his vision. Nevertheless, they also weren't able to see him.

"Regardless, whatever that disciple might be doing; today is the day when the Bone and Devil Sect becomes history. What a pity!"

He sighed as he remembered its glorious days. The time when the Bone and Devil Sect governed the whole Outer Region. Even among the other middle-grade sects, it stood on the top.

"First, I need to locate the Devil Pool.." His shadow flew in between these two disciples unnoticed and easily bypassed the door.
