"Despite his power, Tobias was too arrogant. It's a terrible idea to fight on the battlefield with such an ego, which is why he died at my hands. He deserved it," Vivian said proudly.
"Now that Tobias is dead, the people of the Primitive Fief ought to watch out and behave themselves!" Valeria exclaimed with a snort.
"I don't think so. But in such a short period, they wouldn't dare think it's easy to ruffle our feathers." Rocky shook his head. They slaughtered a Spiritual Emperor of the Primitive Fief. The fief's people would never let this go easily but they would never dare to act so abruptly either.
"Let's take a day off. We'll be on our way tomorrow!" Vivian ordered.
A few hours later, news spread to the guard team of the Primitive Fief that Vivian killed Tobias. They were near the area where the Nether Dragon King's lair was stationed.
"What? Tobias was murdered by Vivian?" This news shocked all of the Spiritual Emperors of the Primitive Fief.
Tobias' strength was only second to that of Israel and another high-level Spiritual Emperor in the team. He was one of their most powerful fighters, so the news of him being killed so easily was quite unexpected.

"There's no need to do anything at the moment. Now that someone is clearing the way for us, we can avoid tons of trouble. Isn't it perfect? As for the rest, we'll talk about it once we get to the Nether Dragon King's lair. Moreover, we don't have any background on our enemy yet so we can't risk acting so suddenly either," Rocky replied with his explanation.
"It's the only way." Valeria agreed with him. The most important thing right now was to arrive at the lair safely first.
With this in mind, the joint guard team continued to move forward for two days before finally arriving near the Nether Dragon King's lair. They knew that the lair's entrance must have been guarded by people from the Primitive Fief, so they didn't risk trying to break in. Instead, they found a safe area nearby to set up camp and sent two Spiritual Emperors to the entrance where they would collect more information about their enemy.
As expected, the two Spiritual Emperors returned not long after and immediately reported, "The entrance is heavily guarded by guards from the Primitive Fief. An enchanted barrier has been set up as well so that no one can sneak into the lair, not even a fly."
