790 Chapter 790
As the cluster of thin needles plunged deep within Dorah Kai's stiffened body, he staggered in retreat. Yet, he had barely taken a few steps when his face turned ink-black with blood oozing from the side of his lips. Collapsing stiffly, he died on the spot.
Since he was young, Dorah Kai had been playing with poison and there were countless Martial Artists, disciples of sects big and small as well as countless geniuses who had died against that move of his.
However, he had never expected himself to die in the hands of his own ultimate move!
Seeing Dorah Kai collapse on the ground finally, Aiden's figure descended as well as he heaved a sigh of relief. In truth, what happened earlier had given him a shock as well.
His earlier rage and release of power just before was not planned. Yet, if not for that Draconic Shout, he would have been the one lying on the floor right now!
Turning around, Aiden smiled coldly at the Corpse Poison Sect disciples that were watching from outside the hall. In a flash, he charged into the crowd with Rygintarth raised in his hand.
There were no more room for discussion. The Corpse Poison Sect have long since crassed Aiden's bottom line when they decided to attack one if his closest members. He would never let them off after hurting his Dara.
The moment he stepped into this place, he had no intention of letting anyone off. In the end, his captain's words that he said to Tai Liu before was spot on; Aiden's true motive was to exterminate them from the roots!
Aiden had to remove every single trace of danger from his beloved's side. None would be left alive.
The massacre continued.
Although Aiden was alone, the remaining Corpse Poison Sect disciples had already given up all thoughts of retaliating and scurried hurriedly.
….
At the western districts of Inner Ugburg, at an extremely lavish building seemingly made out of pure milky white crystals.
"[Reptilian] Senior Brother! Reporting for…"
A Crystal Palace disciple sprinted the entire way and arrived at a mansion. Greeting the handsome man before him with cupped fists, he said hurriedly between breaths.
"[Reptilian] Hmm? What happened?"
Pei Syriac raised his brow with a slightly curious expression.
"[Reptilian] Barging into the territory of the Corpse Poison Sect? How many people did he take along with him? A hundred? Maybe more?"
The young man reporting revealed a troubled smile as he shook his head and responded with an awkward tone.
"[Reptilian] No, Senior Brother. He brought no one, he barged in by himself only."
"[Reptilian] What?! He was alone?"
Frowning, Pei Syriac pondered for a moment. He couldn't help but shake his head in light laughter as he remarked in a leisurely manner not believing the report at all.
"[Reptilian] The Corpse Poison Sect is filled with traps and there are more than a hundred highly dangerous disciples trained in the art of assassination standing guard. There's even that snake, Dorah Kai, the 'Poison Man', around. A mere vagrant like that Aiden definitely has a death wish for barging into Corpse Poison Sect alone.
"[Reptilian] Heh… If I had known that this b*stard would be so reckless and dumb, I wouldn't have needed to waste my efforts on him!"
Pei Syriac could not help but feel a tinge of regret as he thought about Loran Whron, his trusted aide, who had yet to return from the hunt of Aiden.
It had been several days already and Loran Whron's deep silence probably meant he had met some great trouble and was no longer in this world.
The thought of Loran Whron failing and being killed by Aiden instead had crossed Pei Syriac's mind too. However, he felt that Loran Whron, who was at the peak of the Martrial Knight realm at Rank 9 and was ready to step into the Master realm after all. In terms of strength, he was the only one above Loran Whron. Given the strength that Aiden displayed in that battle on the long street, there was no way that person could be a threat to some as talented as Loran Whron.
Pei Syriac shook his head and said, "[Reptilian] Well, since we've got nothing on, let's go and watch the show. It's bound to be interesting!"
…
At the same time at another location, amidst some dark rocky formations, an extermely sinister looking building were standing tall.
In this dark and sinister palace, a Malefic Demons Clan member knelt on the ground before a dark robed man. Heaving a heavy, somber sigh, he reported in a deep voice.
"[Reptilian] My lord, that Aiden whom you wanted to be informed about have returned to the city today. Not long after, he barged straight into the Corpse Poison Sect's base alone and created a massacre. The current state of the battle is unknown."
"[Reptilian] Hmm?"
The young Dark Lord of the Malefic Demons Clan Master Yang Zahn, opened his eyes with a flicker of mockery.
"[Reptilian] Even the gods above can't save somebody that's looking to die. Barging into the Corpse Poison Sect alone? How interesting…"
Standing up, Dark Lord Yang Zahn remarked with a sinister sneer. "[Reptilian] Alright then, let's go and help him collect his corpse! We will show everyone what happens to those that offends us!"
—
On the long streets of Ugburg's eastern and southern sections a large battalion of more than a thousand figures marched towards the south, each armed from head to toe and ready for not just a battle but probably an entire war campaign as well. This massive force was the joint efforts of not just the Azure Myst Sect's entire line up but also several smaller and medium sized forces that were pulled into action by either the Young Master Tai Liu, his elder protector, or one of Aiden's captains themselves.
The dense group attracted countless gazes. This army was massive, capable of contending with any of the mayor factions residing in the city!
At the helm, leading this massive force was none other than Tai Liu and his elderly uncle. Aiden's captains followed behind the two of them with grim expressions silently. Even little Tolliah was there, looking at the distance with a worried expression. Though she tusted her 'papa' the utmost, she still wanted to see her fine and safe.
To be perfectly honest, leading such a massive force was a new experience for Tai Liu. She looked flustered and there was sweat on her forehead. She declared as she marched forward with a beautiful glaive in her right hand.
"[Reptilian] Friends, my brethren! Make sure to not act recklessly and to follow my orders later on. Our priority is to rescue our friend, Aiden! Let's try our best to avoid fighting the Corpse Poison Sect discipels head-on!"
"[Reptilian] That's right." One of the large Saurian captains of Aiden nodded and added. "This is a rescue mission, not a battle."
Seeing the worried look on the young master's expression he placed his firm hand over Tai Liu's shoudler and whispered with a gentle tone. "[Reptilian] Do not be worried, miss. Our Young Master is extraordinarily strong and the heavens will bless him. We are sure that nothing bad can happen to him!"
"[Reptilian] Mmm. Thank you." Tai Liu forced a smile and expressed her thanks.
In a split second, all the major factions in Ugburg City were alerted and moved towards the Corpse Poison Sect at the city's east one after another!
…
Sitting on a large throne, carried by a group of golden robed men, a handsome man in luxurious robe sat with a calm expression on his face. With eyes that were crystalline like glass, he exuded a unique aura that attracted everyone's attention.
He was none other than the leader for Crystal Palace's local forces, Pei Syriac.
Their reaction were the fastest as the Crystal Palace's group was about to arrive at Corpse Poison Sect at the city's east.
At the same time, another group of sinister looking figures appeared from the direction opposite of Crystal Palace. Wearing black robes, they were none other than Malefic Demons Clan's force.
The two major players were not far from one another and could even see the other.
Right then, a Crystal Palace disciple sped over with a frantic expression. His eyes could barely contain his shock as he gulped before struggling to say.
"[Reptilian] Senior Brother! Senior Brother grave news! The Corpse Poison sect… is no more!"
"[Reptilian] Yeah yeah, understood. Let me know if anythi-"
Pei Syriac replied with an aloof expresson at first, not bothered by the report.
After a slight pause, he frowned and returned to his senses. Gazing at his underling's face, he asked slowly with an increasingly sharp expression.
"[Reptilian] What did you just say? Repeat it once again, clearly!"
