Gaia's Fury, Bebe and Nisi
"This matter can't be rushed, and don't worry too much. I believe that the family will one day be revived."
Mori forced a smile and began to comfort Gaia, while also encouraging himself.
Since the battle at the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, in which the Four Divine Beasts Clan was destroyed, the two Grand Elders, Gaia and Mori, have had to shoulder the task of revenge and revitalizing their clans.
However, the task was too difficult, leaving the two of them breathless. Two million years had passed, and the Eight Great Clans were still hunting them down. Although the remaining members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan were well hidden, some of them were found and all of them were wiped out.
The six remaining Asura from the Eight Great Clans tried every means to find the two Asura. Gaia and Mori had no choice but to hide their identities and go into hiding. This pain made them want to rush out and fight to the death countless times.
"Sigh, never mind, this can't be rushed, hmm? That's..."
After exchanging a few words of comfort, Gaia and Mori prepared to leave the Amethyst Mountains for the Fiend Castle, but suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?"
Mori quickly went into battle mode, standing up as if facing a formidable enemy.
"That, that is... the Azure Dragon Ring!"
Gaia stretched out her fair finger and pointed tremblingly in a direction not far away, where there were two Mid-God and one Highgod, a man and a woman.
"What? The Azure Dragon Ring?"
Mori was immediately startled and quickly scanned the area with his Divine Sense, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.
"There's no mistake, it's the Azure Dragon Ring!"
Gaia clenched her fists instinctively, her gaze towards Linley filled with murderous intent.
She would never be mistaken; the ring on the hand of that young man who looked like Mid-God was none other than the ring belonging to her father, the Azure Dragon Sovereign, Reding.
"Why would the Azure Dragon Ring appear in the hands of a Mid-God?"
Mori's expression kept changing, and he spoke with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.
"No matter the reason, a Mid-God dares to take my father's things; he must die!"
A murderous glint flashed in Gaia's blue eyes as she stared intently in Linley's direction.
On the other side, Delia sensed the Divine Sense and frowned.
"Linley, Bebe, those two over there just used their Divine Sense to probe us."
Delia activated her Divine Domain and began a private conversation with Linley and Bebe.
"What? They're investigating us? What do they mean by that?"
Bebe spoke up, sounding somewhat angry, then looked in the direction of Gaia and the other person.
"Delia, how many times did they investigate? Was it a coincidence?"
Linley frowned instantly, then sent a telepathic message to Delia asking.
In the Amethyst Mountains, people occasionally use their Divine Sense to explore their surroundings in order to collect Amethyst, so Linley couldn't determine what the other person meant.
"Linley, I have a feeling those two people have ill intentions. That woman seemed to be staring at you, examining the ring for a while. Although her gaze was subtle, I'm sure I wasn't mistaken."
Delia spoke cautiously, her expression becoming much more serious.
"What?"
Linley was instantly startled, then broke out in a cold sweat as he considered a terrifying possibility.
The moment Linley broke through to godhood, he successfully discovered that the ring was Sovereign Artifact. Later, when Beirut was guiding his cultivation, Beirut discovered the ring's extraordinary nature.
When Beirut learned that this was Sovereign Artifact, he immediately realized that the ring was the Sovereign Artifact of the Azure Dragon Sovereign. He then told Linley about the Four Divine Beasts Clan.
"If those two figures recognized the ring as Sovereign Artifact, then they are very likely the two Asura who fled from the Four Divine Beasts Clan!"
Linley took a deep breath and telepathically communicated with Bebe and Delia. The three of them then retreated, pretending nothing had happened.
"That kid found out, kill him!"
Mori roared angrily, no longer caring about concealing his identity, and transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards Linley and the other two.
"Damn it, Bebe, Delia, we've gone deep into the Mist Sea mountains!"
Linley decisively transmitted his voice, pulling Delia along as they quickly flew deeper into the Mist Sea.
The Mist Sea of the Amethyst Mountains is said to devour anyone who enters, and no one who enters ever returns alive. But now, with two Asura before us, there is absolutely no chance of survival; we have no choice but to take a gamble.
"Whoosh!"
A terrifying suction force emanated from within the Mist Sea, quickly engulfing Linley and his companions, catching Mori and Gaia somewhat off guard.
"Decisive enough, but entering the Mist Sea means certain death!"
Mori gave a cold smile, looked in the direction where Linley and the other two had disappeared, and then turned away, ignoring them.
"You got off too easy!"
Gaia clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and spoke before turning and leaving as well.
During their years in the Amethyst Mountains, they also gathered a lot of intelligence and learned a great deal about the situation in the Mist Sea.
The Mist Sea is a forbidden zone; no one who enters can come out alive. Even the Seven-Star Demon, who once entered, did not emerge alive.
Gaia and Mori had speculated about this, and they both believed that there might be Overgod guarding the Amethyst Mountains. Once you enter the mountains, you can't come out. It was a rule set by the supreme Overgod. Therefore, the two of them dared not violate the Overgod's rule and never entered the mountains.
On the other side, inside the Amethyst Mountains.
"Bang! Bang!"
With two loud crashes, Linley and the other two landed safely. Bebe slammed hard onto the rocks, while Linley, carrying Delia, used Gravity Space manipulation to carefully land.
"Damn, it's really tough!"
Bebe dusted herself off, muttering something to herself in annoyance.
"Delia, Bebe, are you alright?"
Linley released Delia, then looked at Bebe and asked.
"No problem, boss, we just got sucked into this place! Really!"
Bebe raised her head, looked towards the direction beyond the mountains, and said somewhat indignantly.
"This is the depths of the Amethyst Mountains, a place said to be impossible to leave once you enter."
Linley looked at Bebe and Delia with some guilt. No matter what, it was because of his ring that Gaia and Mori were chasing them, forcing them to flee into the Amethyst Mountains.
"It's okay, boss. At worst, we'll just take out those two Four Divine Beasts Clan once we get out!"
Bebe immediately patted her chest and spoke with an expression that showed she didn't care at all.
Just as Bebe and the other two were talking, a girl's voice suddenly rang out.
"Why are there more people coming in? And what did you just say? Killing members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan?"
A cute Straw Hat Girl who looked quite young suddenly appeared, startling Linley and the other two.
But the next moment, Bebe suddenly widened her eyes and stared straight at Nisi, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?"
Nisi felt a little uncomfortable under Bebe's gaze and couldn't help but ask.
"Beautiful lady, has anyone ever told you that your eyes are so captivating!"
Bebe blurted it out unconsciously, then realized what she had said and covered her mouth.
