Chapter 201 - Battle Begins
"It's done." The old man muttered and vanished into the All-Seeing Mirror. Without him, the mirrors in the sky fell down on the ground and broke into pieces. Thus, the light emitted by them stopped resulting in the sky returning back to normal.
Despite this, the people didn't feel safe but rather more uncomfortable. This was because they felt everything about them being exposed to some old man.
Hector stood up and gazed in a certain direction coldly.
"There he is. It seems like there are more people involved."
He then ordered in a loud voice. "Follow me."

On the other side,
"Is it over?" Davion asked in confusion as he had thought that this light would raze this whole city to the ground. Nonetheless, not a single dangerous thing happened.
"It looks like you were worried about nothing."
"I hope so." She withdrew the barrier and spread her Divine Sense trying to find anything abnormal. However, everything was as usual.
"Davion, why don't we leave this city straight away? I'm still not convinced." She requested. This was due to the fact that her fairy artifact was shaking all the time and warning her beforehand.
"Yes, we..." He paused there abruptly as he sensed many powerful auras heading in their direction with his Mind-Eye.
"Damn, are they coming after me?" He cursed inwardly.
"Was this light for that purpose? But I was inside a barrier." He was confused.
"Haha, do you think you two can leave?" Luke's wild laughter was heard. Although that weird phenomenon disrupted him earlier, he didn't bother about it since he was consumed by greed already. The same went for Naomi and Logan.
"You all are really annoying." Davion used Thunder Steps and appeared infront of them in the blink of an eye. He didn't want to waste any time with these ants. After all, stronger people were on their way here.
"Fuck"
"He's too fast." They were caught off-guard by his sudden outburst.
"Shadow Zap"
They tried to use the same trick as before to blend into the shadows, but Davion enlarged his right hand barely managing to grab Luke, the fatter and the slower one among the bunch.
"You.." Luke used all his strength attempting to break free. Nevertheless, it was useless because beating Davion in terms of raw strength was a challenge for everybody. Especially for someone at the same level as him.
"Ahh." He cried out in pain as Davion began squeezing his body with force.
Seeing this, he went all out. His body transformed into a big black panther and dark elementary particles started gathering from the surroundings. This dark Qi was entering Davion's body and slowly corroding him from within.
"Haha, is this all you got?" Davion mocked him and terrifying red flames were released from his other hand. Not only that, but he transformed it into a sharp claw like those of devils making sure it was well hidden behind the flames.
He would never let other people who were not close to him know that he could use devil arts. If leaked, then he would be hunted by everyone and would have no place to stay.
However, when he was about to strike him with it, Naomi and Logan emerged from behind his back and slashed their daggers at his neck.
"Watch out!" With this voice, two sharp colorless sword Qi's carrying dangerous auras came behind them. So, they had to halt their attacks and move to their sides.
"Swish..Swish.." The sword Qi's brushed past their skin and disappeared into thin air giving the perfect opportunity for Davion to finish off Luke.
"Good timing, Siena." Even though he would have easily protected himself, there was no harm in praising her.
He then pierced straight into the heart of Luke taking his life in a couple of seconds.
"No.." Naomi and Logan cried out seeing this miserable sight.
After killing him, Davion took his spirit ring and glanced at them with an evil smile on his face. "Now, what shall I do with you two?"
They looked at each other and nodded their heads. They changed into their demon form like Luke but instead of attacking, they dashed away.
"We will definitely have our revenge." Naomi didn't forget to threaten him.
Siena wanted to make a move hearing this to save future troubles. But Davion stopped her.
"Let them go. There are powerful individuals heading here." He reminded her.
"Are you sure? I can't sense them." She didn't believe him. After all, her Divine Sense didn't catch sight of anyone.
"Why should I lie to you? I have practiced a unique spell from the Human World that has heightened my senses." He answered truthfully. He would never forget that old woman who gave him the precious Mind-Eye technique.
"Now that you've said it, I believe it might be true. Seeing you referring to us as members of the panther tribe must not be a coincidence." When she perceived the souls of the merchants due to the golden light, she had been having this guess.
"You are quite sharp." He didn't deny it.
"Fine, let's leave," she said.
Nonetheless, they weren't able to escape as a bunch of snake guards appeared ahead of them and surrounded them immediately.
"How dare you two cause ruckus and fight in the territory of the Venomous Python Tribe?" Their leader in the peak Nascent Soul Stage spoke.
"Now what?" Siena asked.
"We can't waste any more time. Why don't you make a move?" Davion suggested.
"Ok!" She pointed her hands towards them and ten powerful sword Qi's were unleashed from each of her fingers.
"Puchi-"
These sword Qi's hit their targets swiftly, sending them far away. Nobody knew whether they lived or not. Moreover, this commotion attracted the Golden Lion Tribe members who were keeping a watch here. So, they too came to arrest them.
"Damn, this bunch of flies." Davion took out the sword given by Siena and started killing them while Siena continued sending out her sword Qi's.
This continued for a few more minutes before eventually settling down. Just when they were catching their breaths in relief, they heard a huge explosion sounding from their backs.
"BOOOM"
They turned there and saw a big ball of a golden-colored flame destroying a large portion of the city. Clouds of dusty smoke billowed into the sky, and who knows who many lives were lost as a result.
"Are they your friends?" A haughty voice came from the smoke.
"This voice.." Davion felt that he had heard it somewhere but couldn't recall it at the moment.
"Furthermore, who are my friends he is implying? Are they the baboon brothers?" He was worried. After all, they were the only friends he had in this world.
"Why aren't you responding?" An imposing aura swept past them blowing away the smoke and revealing that figure.
"It's him." He saw Hector nearing them while dragging two people with his hands.
"My God! They are Naomi and Logan. Why are they in his hands?" He was amused. It seems like he was worrying for nothing.
"Kid, I found you. Don't think that I won't recognize you. Even if you are not wearing your hideous mask currently, your red-colored hair and your outer appearance easily gave you away." Andreas bellowed in anger.
"Davion, what did you do?" Siena asked in a panicked tone. There were twenty Domain Realm experts in total with at least a hundred Nascent Soul experts present here.
"I don't know." How could Davion say that he had robbed them?
"Kid, you dare kill my son. You can forget about living." Without giving him the chance to speak, Andreas charged ahead with a staff in his hands. He couldn't control himself.
However, Hector raised his hand and stopped him in his tracks. "Halt."
"This.." Andreas paused and looked at him asking for an answer.
"He is not the troublesome fellow here. But the woman behind him." Hector reasoned.
"Oh! Is she the one with a fairy artifact?" Andreas understood him. He then solemnly gazed at the woman. After observing the powers of the All-Seeing Mirror, he realized that such artifacts were on a whole new level. So, it was better to be careful.
"Woman, who are you? Why did you brutally plunder our Alchemy Shop and our Quarry? You even killed lots of innocent people there. In addition, the spirit vein was also pulled out." Hector thought that this woman was the mastermind supporting Davion. Thus, he listed all the crimes one by one and questioned her straight away.
Siena didn't answer but rather turned towards Davion and coldly asked, "Did you do all that?"
Davion embarrassingly replied, "How can a noble young man like…"
"Shut up! Now I know why you were so rich. It looks like I have to give you away." She was furious. She couldn't believe that she was teaming up with a shameless thief right now.
"How can you do that? Don't leave me." Davion acted pitifully.
"Humph!" She scoffed at him and retracted her gaze ahead.
"I'm not related to all this. It's a misunderstanding. You can do whatever you want with him." She declared.
"Hehe, do you think that I will believe that? Without your fairy artifact, he wouldn't have been able to hide for so long. We could have caught him the moment he had escaped." Hector chuckled.
"Fairy Artifact?" Davion learned new things here.
"Explain yourselves." Siena was puzzled.
"There is no need for that. We will simply capture you. A mere woman at the early stage of the Domain Realm is not qualified to talk with me." Hector spoke with disdain causing the expression of Siena under the veil to become ugly.
Meanwhile, Davion looked at her with his mouth agape. He had always thought that she was a peerless expert right from the start. But it seems like he had been mistaken badly.
"No wonder, her sword Qi and attacks felt weak."
