Chapter 192

It wasn't a hard mission, to begin with, just to hone the skills of their disciples and let them explore the world but it ended up with a God, who was an elder from their sect, to perish at the hands of a mysterious man .

The arrogant disciple who was reckless enough to stand close to the fight was now heavily wounded, his arrogant aura had long since disappeared . Currently, he was being helped by the two twins but his wounds wouldn't recover even with pills, he was literally on the verge of dying, the blow was too serious . Even the female, who was usually had a calm nature had a terrified face, her smile vanished and what replaced it was complete fear!

They didn't even think about bringing the captives, the four of them used a Spirit Boat and stormed out of this place, once they saw elder Tian die at the hands of the man, all of their faces froze and their eyes widened .

Unfortunately for them, just as the Spirit Boat crossed a small distance, a terrifying presence covered it whole and petrified the four of them .

"Mmmm, the young are courageous! From the looks of it, you never heard of this?"

Arthur appeared on board of the Spirit Boat, which stopped flying . A complex net of lightning enveloped the boat and became similar to a cage, no matter how the boat banged on it, it couldn't penetrate through it or even shake it .

With gaping mouths and shivering bodies, they stared at Arthur, who was friendly smiling at them . But how could they not be afraid! This man just killed Tian, who was a supreme existence to them and an elder of their sect . Even if they joined forces there is no way they can defeat him, or even escape!

"S-senior, please spare us!"

The older one of the twins spoke with a shaky voice, from the desperate expression on his face, you could guess it took him a lot of courage to utter those words .

"Y-yes . . . please senior, what he said . . . "

The younger brother followed but his voice was even worse than his brother . Arthur couldn't help but laugh as he saw their fearful attitude . Contrary to them, the female seemed to have remembered something, the fear was still shown to her but it wasn't like a second ago, as if she regained a bit of confidence .

She tried to suppress the fear and proudly said

"We are disciples of the Golden Earth Sect . Senior, please show mercy and the sect shall forget about today's matter!"

Although she was begging him for mercy, her tone was different . It seemed more like a threat than someone begging for his life .

Seeing this wonderful spectacle, Arthur released a bashful smile, his showed his row of white teeth and pointed his finger at the female, then without any warning . The female's body convulsed and lifelessly fell on the floor . Her eyes showed belief, unwillingness, and terror, till the last second, she couldn't still believe she died just like that .

"I do not like people who threaten me . "

Seeing the female die on the spot, without even knowing how she died, the twins almost pissed their pants from fright . Fortunately, they didn't dare boast or say unwise words in front of the man .

As for the injured youth, he stared at the female's dead body then struggled to point at Arthur whilst angrily uttering

"Y-you . . . our sect won't let this matter go! You will be tort-"

'poof'

Just like the female, the youth didn't even finish talking before his inclined body fell on the floor, lifeless . To this very second, the twins still didn't know how they died but they didn't dare ask, the fear reached its limit and even breathing became harder .

"For what reasons do you need the captives?"

Arthur didn't waste time chitchatting about pointless things . Although he was still carrying that peaceful smile and the ethereal state, this only added to the horror the twins were feeling . The older one didn't dare answer late, he spouted everything he knew without reservation or care if it was a secret or not .

"I-it's acc-cctually a mission from our sect . . . . e-every year some disciples are ss-ssent to bring out people from the l-lower realms to nurture the good seeds . . . "

Arthur contemplated for a bit then added

"What about the bad seeds?"

"Ah?"

The older brother was dumbfounded for an unknown reason but he soon snapped out of his daze when Arthur whistled playfully, his body trembled and he resumed

"M-most of them are turned into s-servants . . . . "

With one hand on his chin, Arthur sat on air and pondered for a minute before he clapped his hands with a satisfied expression and added

"Good job on the truthful answers!"

Seeing he was in a somewhat good mood, the older one urged his brother and they both bowed towards Arthur respectfully and said emotionally

"Thank you for sparing our humble lives!"

Knowing that they did well to not oppose him and act arrogant, the twins were happy and the immense fear dissipated, however, such thing didn't last for long . The atmosphere on the deck of the Spirit Boat suddenly became extremely chilly . Killing intent that almost suffocated them and a cold presence that made their spines numb, which was followed by a voice akin to the devil's

"I never said that I'll spare you, though . "

As his words finished, the bodies of twins fell lifelessly on the deck, without even being able to retort or utter the last cry . They died miserably, just like their comrades .

"Anyone who hinders my goals is nothing but enemies that should be killed . An insignificant ant today can still trouble tomorrow . Always kill until the last one, isn't that right, Lucy . . . . . "

Arthur lamented with a sad expression . He sighed and gathered the corpses then scavenged their possessions . With another wave of his hand, the Spirit Boat was also collected . Although it cannot be compared to the one he bought from the Underworld, he still had to use this one as the other one was given to Lucy .

There was no meaning to linger there any longer so Arthur flew back to where the captives were . Unfortunately, he didn't find any familiar person amongst them, which disappointed them a bit . Although they were powerless in such a world, he was never a savior .

Facing a short-haired female who seemed to be their leader, he brought her away from rest which led her to become uneasy and a bit afraid, her unyielding attitude was shaken a bit as she faced this unknown man . She still tried to maintain a calm expression, however, her body betrayed her as it shivered nonstop .

They didn't know the whole situation but they were able to guess that since the disciples and the old man didn't come back then this gray-haired man dealt with them .

For weak people like them, it didn't matter who was in charge of them, their miserable fate won't change .

"You do not have to be afraid, I'm not lusting over you nor am I going to do anything to you . "

The short-haired female really was scared when she was facing such an existence, even his words were not helpful . Arthur could only sigh and take out a few scriptures from his storage whilst saying

"You are weak, that is an undebatable fact but your fate is in your hands and all I can give you is a helping hand, whether you can grasp this chance depends on your will . The world is large and the universe is vast but maybe there will come a time when we will meet again if fate it allows it . "

With that, he summoned a strong Death Knight and cut his connection with it after he ordered it to follow the girl's orders . With that, he didn't wait for the girl to respond before he departed . He didn't mind leaving a few techniques for them, he didn't need them and although he wasn't willing to take them with him, he still wanted to have a leeway because he was sure that Lucy would have done the same .

As his feet stepped across the skies and crossed thousands of kilometers in seconds, Arthur was lost in a long chain of thoughts, reminiscing about his happy yet short memories with Lucy . They have been separated for a short time but for him, it felt like an eternity .

'We are separated by the heavens, but our bond is not something the river of time or the will of fate can break! Anyone who stands on the path leading to you will be massacred, even if it was the whole world!'
