Chapter 148 Found The Path

Grelia hasn't seen such a bizarre thing ever. She had lived for many years and witnessed many things. She knows the severity of the curse, as some were even killed because of it for loving someone else.

Grelia wasn't fully wrong; she was half right here. Freya did love Yuki, and that was falling in love to fight him. She hasn't yet developed that kind of feeling for him.

Tai watched his fellow enemy talk with their descendants with grief, as he felt lonely for not having anyone come to him.

"Hello, I am Jack. Can I ask you something?" Suddenly, Tai heard a young voice coming beside him. He turned his head and saw a pale-skinned boy with an above-average face smiling at him.

"Of course, you can do it," Tai said with a slight chuckle.

"Can you tell me what happened these past few weeks and how people's lives were?" Jack asked curiously, and Tai saw his face turn serious.

Tai was a bit surprised by this sudden change, but still told him everything.

Jack silently listened to Tai, and the more he listened, the more he showed myriads of emotions.

Tai's elaboration caught Ban, Yuki, and Freya's attention, and they also listened.

Seeing he was able to capture these young ones' attention, he felt proud for some reason.

Just after Tai finished, Yuki asked, pointing his finger at Vik. "So you're telling me that guy has reached a high stage in sword?"

Tai saw Yuki looking at him with eyes that were filled with eagerness. He felt a bit weird but still said. "Yes."

Tai hasn't finished his sentence. Yuki rushed toward Vik, but fortunately, Freya was there to lock him down as she knew his behavior. "You won't go anywhere. This is not the time to fight among ourselves."

"Yes, you should calm down." Ban also chipped in, which made Yuki calm down his urges.

On the other hand, Jack went into deep thought. 'So many things happened. The Burnheart ancestors were such a big culprit in this.'

Jack glanced at Pol, who was looking ahead in shame, not daring to look behind. Jack could see anger on Ban's face too, as he was also very disappointed in them.

'Again, someone succumbing themselves to the false power that demons promised.' Suddenly, Gyuki's words reverberated inside Jack's head.

Jack asked. 'Master Gyuki, are you telling me the demons lied to them?'

'I do not know, actually. They might have items to solve many issues with these old guys, but I do not think the demons would actually give them as they are infamous for breaking promises.' Gyuki calmly said.

'Oh,' Jack etched those words inside his head for when he might meet demon cultivators later in the future.

At that moment, they arrived at the main camp, where everyone's sight got bombarded with mass killing and destruction.

"How big is the casualty?' Roy asked, calmly looking at the sight in front of him.

Vik said with a sigh. "It wasn't bad, but for the past few days, it has gotten worse. Almost all of the Qi Refinement Realm beasts and more than half of the Foundation Establishment Realm beasts are killed. Now, what we are dealing with are Golden Core Realm beasts which soldiers are having a hard time doing anything. We had to pull all the elites from Ragingwave, IceFire, and Burnheart. And in addition to that, came the flying beasts, which changed the direction of the defense."

"It looks like we will have to do some hard work." Roy smiled to himself, thinking of all the onerous work ahead of him.

BOOM

Suddenly a loud explosion occurred, and they saw a small dome made of white spiritual energy rise up, which killed any kind of beast in it.

Roy raised his eyebrows at that destruction and looked up. Where he saw a woman in white-silver armor, floating with her pair of white wings. Roy asked Vik, curiously. "Who is that?"

"She is one of the few who rose to fame and power in this war, helping us in many ways." Vik's answer surprised many.

"One of the few...huh.." Roy mumbled to himself, knowing what Vik meant. 'So, there are many more like her.'

The ones behind, who listened to Tai's elaboration of the past events, knew who she was.

"Is that the 'The Merciful War Angel'?" Yuki stared at her intensely.

Freya frowned seeing Yuki looking at her like that. "Is that hard to guess? Do you want to fight her too now?"

"Uhh, I might later on." Yuki gave an answer, rubbing his chin.

"Hmph," Freya just scoffed at him and didn't say anything.

"She feels strong," Jack said, raising his eyebrows.

Ban said with a smile. "I wanted to go back to the family first, but it looks like the plans have changed. Let's go and show our strengths too."

Ban dashed toward the beast horde at full speed. Jack quickly followed him, as he also wanted to test his power and to save this town of his.

"Let's join them too," Yuki said to Freya while sprinting forward.

Despite getting slightly mad at him for no reason or so, she still followed behind him.

"These guys have no patience." Roy sighed, looking at Ban and others.

Vik didn't say much, just gave them a long stare. Roy, who was beside him, saw Vik's expression. So, he asked. "What are you thinking?"

"Nothing." Vik shook his head. "I was just thinking what would happen if you brought every disciple like them."

Roy gave a small chuckle and then said."Do you think the sect would let me? And I don't think we even have these kinds of enthusiastic disciples."

Vik gave a disappointed sigh upon hearing that. Roy smirked, looking at Vik's face of dismay. "Forget about this, can you tell me how you were able to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

Vik raised his head up and said while staring into the gloomy sky. "I just found the path that I had been searching for years."
