Abduction

At the Eastern Gate, the lights unceasingly flashed in the sky, and many experts who were emitting powerful aura appeared there. All of them were drawn by the earth-shattering battle at the Eastern Gate.

The moment they arrive they felt blast of shockwaves remnant from the two combatants.

The first one to appear in their line of sight is Gyuuki, the man who just made multiple Elders to cower in fear, the next one is his opponent who look like a Barbarian or Mercenary, though they didn't dare to look down on him as they can feel the profound strength emanating from his body.

That Barbarian is a Peak Sky Realm expert, who would dare look down on him?

After just a quick stand off; Gyuuki and Ji Chen gradually vanished from sight, seemingly disappearing in the air. Experts could still see their silhouettes albeit blurry, but to those with weaker cultivation, they could only feel a powerful aura and booming sound from time to time.

The violent shockwaves of their clash surged, spreading outwards in all directions like tidal waves, forcing everyone to conjure a barrier of profound strength to defend.

While the others were attracted by the fight, the experts from the New Moon City noticed the remaining six experts floating in the sky.

They were shocked the moment they felt the thick Profound Aura in each one of them.

There's no doubt about it. This group is full of experts at a minimum cultivation of Sky Profound Realm. What are these experts doing here? Are they an enemy of this mysterious Nura Clan? They couldn't help but think, it's not normal to find this kind of experts in one location.

Gyuuki and Ji Chen continued to clash in mid-air; for some reason after being humiliated by Gyuuki when he was caught in hallucination, caused Ji Chen to become more aggressive as he would give a battle cry in every swing of his Halberd.

The six experts in the sky nodded in approval when Ji Chen started to suppress his opponent;

"It seems like it will be over soon. That young man was able to contend with Ji Chen for awhile, a rare talent."

"Yeah, how about we let Ji Chen spare him and we can recruit him later..eh?"

Just when they were already thinking that Gyuuki's defeat is in the bag they noticed a life-like creature behind Gyuuki slowly materializing as it stared at Ji Chen while flashing with fierce and malicious intent.

It has the head of an ox and the body of a spider, it's red eyes shone with savageness. Large amount of fear surrounded Gyuuki as the monster became even more life-like.

The other six who were spectating raised their eyebrows as surprise became apparent in their eyes. The creature behind Gyuuki is something they have never seen before, it look extremely cruel and even people like them who had killed countless people couldn't help feel a bit of pressure.

The leader of the group of cloaked individuals turned serious as the looks of underestimation dissappeared from his eyes, he turned towards one of his subordinates, "It seems like this man isn't simple. Ji Hao, you go to moon profound palace and do the mission, we will be staying here just in case something unexpected happens."

The cloaked individual named Ji Hao nodded his head as he flew towards the palace when a Dragon made of flames, roared as it appeared in front of him.

ROOOOAR!

Before the Dragon could attack him, one of his comrade dispersed the attack.

"I, Han Yi shall be your opponent." A person who defended the attack from Ddraig spoke as his cloak turned into ashes from the flame dragon's heat.

A slim figure of a man that's around the of twenties in terms of age, the most noteworthy feature in his face is the prominent 'x' shape scar on his forehead.

"Is that so? I don't really mind." Ddraig's entire body was flickering with a glow fiercely as huge amount is starting to distort the air around him.

Huge amount of heat is spreading in every direction as steam started to rise from his body; his clothes is being ripped little by little, his small frame is starting to enlarge as muscles bulged out, and he got taller.

Though he isn't allowed to present his Great Form in front of everyone, this form is still much better.

His current aura made his presence akin to that of a sun glaring at both Heaven and Earth, he manipulated the flame and formed a one-handed axe which looked extremely domineering.

"Nura Clan, that's Ddraig-sama for you."

Resting the one-handed axe in his shoulders, he looked down at his opponent.

For some reason, Han Yi felt that Ddraig purposely allowed Ji Hao to get past him. He doesn't know why but he got a bad feeling about this.

...

Rihan-sama? Where are you Riha-sama?" Kuroumaru's voice echoed in the inn that they were staying, the moment Gyuuki and Ddraig left the inn, he suddenly noticed Rihan dissappeared.

"What's wrong?" A Black haired girl wearing glasses appeared as she walked towards Kuroumaru.

"Rihan-sama is not here. Have you seen him?" Kuroumaru asked his sister, his voice was filled with worry as he tried to look everywhere for any traces of Rihan.

"No, I haven't I thought he was just in his room. How about we separate and look for him in the city?" Sasami suggested, Kuroumaru agreed and summoned multiple crows to look for Rihan as he left.

Sasami also brought Tosakamaru.

Rihan is really similar to their Supreme Commander, who was an expert in getting off the moment you take your eyes off him and running away.

They were warned by their father about this, yet they didn't expect it would happen so soon. Usually, he would go around the city to play, sightseeing, looking for something that would interest him.

.....

A young man with long black hair wearing a dark blue cloak over green-black striped patterned outfit with its collar wide open, revealing his shoulders and chest.

He watched the battle in Eastern Gate from afar with one-eye closed as out of habit.

He doesn't have any plans on interfering as of the moment since he have a task at hand.

When Gozumaru asked one of the human puppet that he controlled, he found the people spreading rumours about the clan and in their hideout he found Mezomaru unconcious, angered about what happened Gozumaru destroyed the entire headquarters.

Good thing, they were just normal humans except their leader.

Still with Gozumaru's strength he was able to kill him at the cost of small injury.

When Mezomaru regained his conciousness he recounted everything that happened and among those information is the plan to take the princess away.

Moments later, he saw one of the seven flew towards the moon profound palace.

Rihan's silhouette dissappeared.

.....

New Moon Profound Palace occupied a vast expanse, with a magnificent Main Hall at its center, and innumerable architecture that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Ji Hao could be seen hovering in the air.

A beautiful woman's visage was illuminated by the moon In the distant horizon, she could hear the howls of wolves from the forests extremely eerie but the girl's reaction did not change; while maintaining a stoic expression as she gaze at the moon. The girl exude a noble and graceful aura that added to her charm, making one feel as if they were looking at an exalted princess that belonged in the Imperial Family.

She is currently reviewing the information about the Nura Clan who suddenly became famous overnight.

Seven members of this mysterious clan arrived a few days ago and was faced with multiple elders from different forces excluding the Xiao Sect and New Moon Profound Profound Palace.

It is stated that only one of them faced the Elders, despite the difference in number, the man named Gyuuki was simply unstoppable and defeated the City Governor black and blue.

The strange thing they found about this clan is their strength, no matter how they sense it they couldn't tell to what extent their powers has reached.

She couldn't help but become even more interested in this clan.

She was currently looking for talents that can represent the Blue Wind Profound Palace in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament.

In the midst of her pondering, she suddenly felt a cold hand grabbing her neck. In that instant, as if she had been shocked by electricity, her entire body quivered as she suddenly widened her beautiful eyes.

She jerked her head to see who it was only to find a person covered in black cloak, she couldn't see his features but she could tell that he is strong, adding up the fact that she was caught unprepared.

Moments later Cang Yue lost her conciousness as she was flung on the man's shoulder.
