Death… And Me

Chapter 283 - Thats Enough

Chapter 283 - That's Enough

Although she was angry that such a thing happened, she was also surprised. She thought that as long as Droman was present, that would be more than enough to stop anyone from trying to force their hands. She never expected that the enemy would send five Soul Transformation Realm cultivators, including a Peak Stage one.

However, she didn't call for a sect meeting. After all, Droman's message was apparent. He was surrounded by five Soul Transformation Realm cultivators. None of the Nascent Soul Realm elders of the sect would be of much use there. In the Dalamu Sect, there were only four people capable of helping them.

The first, obviously, was Mia herself. As mentioned in the past, people believed that Mia was at the Peak of the Soul Transformation Realm. In fact, they were wrong. Mia was at the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm at the moment. Of course, considering her age, that was a huge achievement already.

The second person was obviously Elder Reliance. Everyone knew that Reliance was only at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. Still, his three Demon Beasts, Zunzun, Lanlan, and Jinjin, were Stage Six Beasts. Surprisingly, his Fire Tanager, the smallest of his Demon beasts, was the strongest in that bunch. Zunzun was a Late Stage Six Demon Beast, while Lanlan and Jinjin were at the Initial and Middle Stages, respectively.

The third person was none other than Roan's Alchemy Master, Old Worm. Old Worm was more or less like Reliance and his three hidden demon beasts, someone that almost no one knew about. Even Roan himself did not know Old Worm's cultivation level. It should be no surprise to anyone that Old Worm's path that allowed him to enter the Soul Transformation Realm was alchemy. Turns out that Old Worm had the highest Soul Transformation Realm cultivation in the sect.

It was kind of funny. Both Rean and Roan's Masters just so happened to have entered the Soul Transformation Realm thanks to their side occupations.

Last but not least, the Dalamu Sect's one and only Saint Realm cultivator, Mia's master. However, that man rarely left the sect, so Mia wasn't sure if he would move out now. In the end, she could only try.

'Master.'

Somewhere in a secluded place in the sect, an old man opened his eyes.

'Hmm? What is it, Mia?'

Mia then explained everything to him.

'Five Soul Transformation Realms together? That doesn't sound like something the Royal Family of Jialin or the other Four Sects would do. Besides, our sect received the favor of the Imperial Family. Everyone knows that already. That being said, I doubt just any kind of force would try something like this.'

Mia nodded.

'Indeed. If I'm not wrong, this is not a force from our empire. It was my mistake. I thought that Droman would be more than enough to keep Rean safe, but I never thought that others would come after Droman instead. Rean was basically involved in the mess.'

Suddenly, a white-haired man appeared in front of Mia like a ghost.

"Master! Are you going to act?"

The man nodded.

"I have no other choice. It's not just because of Droman and Rean, but because I don't think that those Soul Transformation Realm cultivators are the only ones involved. If they really came from another empire, there must be a supervisor watching over them. If you guys go along, I'm afraid that our Dalamu Sect might lose all our Soul Transformation Realm elders."

Mia wasn't surprised by that. In fact, she was ready to use the exact same argument. Fortunately, her Master noticed the issue even faster than she could.

"Thank you, Master."

"Hahaha! It's time for Zuan Lamil to make an appearance in the outside world once again. Don't worry, we will bring them back. Besides, leaving the empire isn't simple. With their cultivations, those guys need to be careful on their way out. They absolutely won't fly at full speed. Call the other elders capable of helping. We will need to act together to get the kid and Droman back."

Mia nodded as she immediately called Old Worm, who was with Roan at that moment.

"Hmm?"

Old Worm then looked in a specific direction as his vision darkened. Right after, he looked at Roan.

"Your brother got kidnapped, come."

Roan was taken aback for a second. Still, those words were more than enough for him. He simply nodded and approached Old Worm. Soon after, his body was enveloped by Old Worm's Spiritual Energy as he pulled Roan with him.

Reliance was in the Beast Taming Faction, helping to train Kentucky. If not because of the Minokawa, Reliance would probably be somewhere else now. It was then that he received Mia's message as well.

"Fuck!"

He looked at Kentucky, who was eating a demon core, and thought.

'Better leave it here since it would be too dangerous. Still, who the hell would attack Droman with five Soul Transformation Realm cultivators? Oh well, I can hear more from their corpses later.'

Reliance then looked at the Fire Tanager and murmured something to him. Right after, Zunzun disappeared in a flash of red light into the distance. Obviously, Zunzun was going out to call Lanlan and Jinjin. Reliance didn't wait, though. Instead, he went straight up to the mountain.

It had been just one minute since Mia received Droman's message, but everyone was already gathered in front of her.

However, Mia's eyes narrowed as she saw Roan. With his cultivation, there would be nothing he could do.

"Elder Fauk, why did you bring his brother? He won't be of any use in this matter."

Old Worm shook his head in response.

"He needs to know what is happening. It's his right. We can simply leave him here after we are done talking."

Roan, however, didn't seem to be the least bit concerned with Rean's situation. If anything, his only worry was he would die because Rean died as well. He wouldn't panic or even have a change in expression because of it, though.

Mia nodded after hearing Old Worm's opinion. However, just as she was about to start the discussion, Roan stepped forward.

"Do you know where they have gone?"

Mia's master was quite surprised that Roan didn't feel intimidated in the presence of so many high-level cultivators. That was the strongest front that the Dalamu Sect could put, after all.

Well, Mia, Reliance, and Old Worm didn't think like that. All of them have had enough interactions with Roan to know that he simply doesn't give a damn about things like that.

Mia then shook her head.

"No. But if we call a few favors and spread the net, there is a good chance that we might catch their trail."

Roan narrowed his eyes as he said.

"That will take too long. Just bring me together. I know exactly where you can find those two."

This time, everyone was really shocked by that statement.

"How?"

Roan then pointed at his own head.

"The connection between Rean and I is not only to the point where we can exchange elements with one another. It doesn't matter where the other goes. We can feel the average direction where we can find each other. At this very moment, this group you talked about is moving south-southwest. The closer we get to Rean, the more precise I can feel their location. As long as Droman and Rean are together, you will find Droman as well."

That was great news for all of them. That meant that they wouldn't need to ask for anyone's help. Not to mention that the kidnappers probably thought about this possibility, so the truth was that they had little hope of finding them.

"Since that's the case, the matter is decided. Let's go."

Mia's Master, Zuan Lamil, didn't waste any time and enveloped everyone with his Spiritual Energy. It would be a lot faster if he brought them with him rather than letting them fly by themselves. Besides, at his cultivation level, bringing a few people and demon beasts with him didn't spend any significant Spiritual Energy.

Somewhere outside of the Dalamu Sect, Zunzun, Lanlan, and Jinjin were also caught by Zuan and brought together.

On the way, Roan sent a Spiritual Sense message to Zuan Lamil.

'How far can a Saint Realm's Spiritual Sense reach?'

Zuan looked at him and then answered.

'So you noticed that I'm not a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator, huh? Anyway, it depends on the stage of cultivation and Soul Power. But generally, Initial Stage is up to around 100 kilometers, 150 for Middle, 200 for Late, and 300 for Peak.'

Roan nodded.

'That's enough.'
