Chapter 1297 - You Have Played Long Enough

Roan ignored their antics before returning back to the main topic. 'Let me see if I'm getting this correctly. This is a pretty shitty and very cliche version of a princess bored with her life in the palace. She wanted to live a normal life and escaped without anyone knowing. Naturally, no one would think that the princess, who had everything under the palm of her hand, would try such a thing. Because of that, you had quite an easy time escaping. However, your father found you here and is using this method to get you out of the army. Is that correct?'

Tixa didn't quite like how Roan put her journey in his mouth. However, she still replied. 'You could have done a better job with the tale, but I won't lie. That's basically it.'

Rean had to ask something else, though. 'I find it strange. If her father is someone that influential, does he really need to use such a method? With his power alone, he could have come here and taken Tixa away by force. Who would try to stop the strongest ancestor of the Croste Clan?'

Tixa scratched her head as she thought of a possibility. 'Well, the fact that I wasn't very happy with my life wasn't exactly a secret. Perhaps he's doing it in hopes that I would give up on my own and come back so that I won't try to leave again. It's just as Roan mentioned. Simply put, no one thought I would actually try to leave.'

Roan sighed before he turned around, making his way back to the canyon. 'Let's get over with this. We accomplished the mission, so they can't keep complaining even if we give up on this one. I'm not in the mood to throw myself in there anymore if everything is being manipulated by someone else.'

Rean was quick to agree with Roan. 'He is right. If things really go bad, someone related to your father might be within the enemy's forces, making sure that none of us, except you, would come back alive. Roan and I are very confident in our escaping skills, but that's only when no cultivators at the Transition Realm and above are involved. Sorry, but we won't continue this mission.'

But even though they said that, Tixa could not help but say, 'However, I don't know if this is really something related to my father or if it's just pure coincidence. Isn't it better to think about it for a bit?'

Roan looked behind in response but didn't stop walking. Instead, Tixa and the rest of the puzzled division, who couldn't hear their conversation since it was through Divine Sense, followed the twins. 'No can do. As remote as the possibility may be, we're definitely not taking it.'

However, just as the twins we about to enter the canyon, they instantly felt a ridiculously strong Divine Sense touching their Divine Sense bending skill. It broke through their bending ability in an instant. Well, they weren't covering everyone with their Divine Sense Bending Skill to start with. Over 3500 cultivators were just way too much for Rean and Roan to keep hidden. They kept their Divine Sense bending skill active just to know if someone much stronger than them had appeared or not.

The twins then looked at where the Divine Sense was coming from. Whoever the owner of the Divine Sense was, they were coming in their direction. At the moment, the twins' division was located right in between the right wing and the central army of the Jesvo Alliance's forces. However, the Divine Sense was coming from between those two armies. To be more precise, the Divine Sense was definitely coming from their side of the battlefield.

Rean and Roan looked at each other and nodded. Soon after, the two took out their weapons before they dashed in their division's direction. Everyone was taken aback, not understanding why the twins were coming for them. However, the twins passed by most of the cultivators in the division as if they didn't even exist.

Yes, it was just most of their division, not all of them. Rean's sword and Roan's scythe suddenly stopped right in front and at the back of one of their division's cultivators. The guy didn't even have the time to react when the twins appeared on both his sides.

"Hey, Tixa. It seems like your father has someone here who wants to talk to you," Rean said with a smile as he looked at the guy's face.

The man's expression was already shocked when the twins appeared. However, when they said those words, he went completely pale. Tixa saw all of that as well. She wasn't an idiot. Because of the twins' quick reaction and their sudden words, the guy's origin became obvious.

"You!" She took the twins' weapons out of the way and grabbed the guy by the neck. They put someone very inconspicuous in their midst. He was only at the Peak Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm, someone who had no chance of escaping Tixa's grasp.

Tixa then looked at the twins and asked, "How did you know he was part of my father's subordinates?"

Rean and Roan then pointed at a certain point on the ground, just a few tens of meters away from their group. "Perhaps the senior trying to hide there but is doing an extremely terrible job in that regard can answer that."

Everyone was shocked to hear that as they looked at the place that the twins pointed. However, it didn't matter how much they looked. They simply couldn't see anything out of the ordinary. It didn't continue for long, though. Just a few seconds after the twins spoke, the area around the location suddenly warped as if space itself was contorting. Eventually, the figure of an old woman came out as she stared at the twins with a cold expression.

Tixa, however, identified the old woman immediately. "Aunt Trika!"

The twins didn't even bother to stay on their guard. With that woman's cultivation alone, they had absolutely no chance of ever escaping. It all depended on Tixa now.

Trika then looked away from the twins and focused on Tixa instead. "Since you have found out already, there's no need to pretend anymore. Maeralya, it's time to leave.. You have played for long enough."
