A Demon's Journey

Chapter 332 - The Battle Commences

Zena, Noah's group, and Laura's group headed in the direction from where the Dragon Tiger Palace's group was approaching.

They caught sight of them soon enough. There were hundreds of warriors with thousands of beasts around them.

Noah's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement as he gazed at a herd of deer. He remembered the taste of the deer's meat from the Cranian Woods.

He wanted Azaroth to eat that delicious meat as well.

Luna and Aria had been told they would have to fight the warriors. However, it wasn't until they saw the Beast Taming Group that they realized they were up against the Dragon Tiger Palace.

This Beast Taming Group was incredibly famous. Nearly all sects wanted to poach a few warriors from this group.

The warriors of this group knew how to tame beasts. This was a skill that had remained unique to the Dragon Tiger Palace till now.

The Dragon Tiger Palace had worked meticulously to prevent it from being leaked. Not even mind-reading techniques could be used to get that technique.

This Beast Taming Skill was quite beneficial. If a martial genius figured out how to spiritually control his monsters, the threat posed by him would be amplified even more.

This was one reason the Dragon Tiger Palace continued to pay a heavy price to conceal this formula. The martial geniuses were indeed much greater in number within the sects. The strength of that sect would rise greatly if even a small percentage of them began to cultivate this Beast Taming Technique.

Luna and Aria were sure that they were up against the genuine Beast Taming Group.

Aria stared at Noah with a startled expression. This man showed no fear or nervousness while he was up against the Dragon Tiger Palace's one of the elite groups.

Meanwhile, Luna seemed to be looking at Noah with respect and a tinge of shyness.

Even though Noah was considerably younger than her, she found his back to be extremely broad.

It felt as if he could take on all obstacles in life while retaining that calm and straightforward look.

Luna looked in Aria's direction while thinking 'I need to perform better than her.'

Luna had been working on her attack these past few days, and it had just passed the basic stage for this attack.

She intended to utilize this technique anytime she had the opportunity. Only when she utilizes this attack in real combat would she understand its benefits and drawbacks.

While the Origin Sect Branch's side observed them, the same was true about the other side.

They were also observing Noah's group, Laura's group, and Zena's.

These warriors were surprised to see a Crimson Bird and a few more Birds heading towards them. They revealed a hostile aura which meant they were with the enemy.

'The enemy possesses Beast Taming Skill. But how? This should be a secret technique exclusive to a selected few in the Dragon Tiger Palace.' Many individuals thought with a startled look.

However, they further thought 'No. I can't sense any Spiritual Fluctuations from these beasts. It's not the Beast Taming Skill. This is some other skill. We need to find out about it. This might be useful for the Dragon Tiger Palace.'

These warriors made up their minds to torture the group sent by the Origin Sect branch to intercept them.

Many warriors also eyed Laura and her group. Laura's group contained many beautiful women, including her.

While most of the warriors from the Beast Taming Group were guys.

Laura's beauty naturally grabbed their attention. Especially that pretty, cool, and mature charm around her.

They felt like striking a conversation with her. It was unfortunate that they were on the opposite sides of this conflict.

A small group of friends within this Beast Taming Group began to converse among themselves.

One of them spoke with a wishful tone, "Bro, I have got my heart set on that blonde-haired woman. Help me get her."

His friend responded sarcastically, "Yeah? Go look at your face in the mirror before saying that again. You will hear a voice saying you don't deserve her. She deserves someone better."

"Hmph. You are just jealous of me since I have a better track record in terms of relationship," The warrior responded with a snort.

His friend sneered in return and spoke, "I am just not desperate like you. I have my standards while any woman would be enough for someone like you."

Those words hit that warrior in the heart.

At this man, the third individual spoke up, "Shut it. You both don't deserve her. She needs someone powerful who can protect her from perverts like you."

Both warriors spoke collectively in a sarcastic tone, "Please, I don't want to hear that from you."

The third individual ignored their words.

The Beast Taming Group halted after some time. They were gauging Noah's group and checking for any traps. Walking any further would mean they were entering the Origin Sect Branch's territory.

The beasts let out aggressive growls from their positions.

They were destroying the morale of the warriors who came to fight from Noah's side. And it was clearly working.

These warriors had already been terrified by the sheer number of them. The violent growls just served to escalate tensions.

The warrior who was wishful for Laura spoke up while staring at Noah's group, "So, you are the unfortunate disciples who had been sent to stop us. I believe you should give up while you have the chance. We will have mercy on you and won't harm you."

Another warrior chimed in, "That's correct. You should understand the difference between us. It won't take us more than a snap to slaughter you right where you stand."

Many men were staring in Laura's direction to know what her decision would be. They wanted her to give up.

They didn't want to harm her or her group members. They knew that this woman was most probably the leader of the group she was leading.

If her group members were killed during this battle, then they would earn her ire. Who wanted to earn the ire of such a beautiful woman?

Noah spoke out with a slightly loud voice, "Oh. So, that's what you will do to us. I understand. I understand."

When Noah spoke, he gathered the attention of all warriors from the enemy's side. They were startled to see a kid here.

They gazed at him and noticed him pulling out his sword. They recalled his words raised their eyebrows in confusion.

Was this kid not giving up?

Meanwhile, Luna and Aria felt an overwhelming aura that made them experience nostalgia. They were very used to this version of Noah.

Noah jumped towards the sea of enemies without any further ado with a single sword in his hand.

The Sword Qi was released from his body as he used his technique to tear apart his enemies' bodies.

"Heaven Rending Slash!"

This attack headed towards the Beast Taming Group at a rapid pace.

Laura didn't tarry behind as she also launched her attack, "Hundred Wood Thicket!"

It appeared as if hundreds of thick trees had been launched at these warriors and beasts from a distance.

These trees had thin but durable branches that could target the beasts near the warriors.

And last but not the least, Zena released Heavenly Thunder at the Beast Taming Group.

The beasts were extremely startled as they sensed that heavenly aura. They felt like running away from this battle. If not because they were spiritually bound, they would have fled by now.
