The woman’s mouth was closed, and due to how the man was forcefully dragging her, it appeared that she was not willing to go where he was taking her to.“Where could he be dragging her to…” Jordan mumbled, then pushed his back from the tree he was laying it on.The man appeared to be one of the armies, and that was what stunned Jordan the most. He didn’t want to jump himself into confusion and conclusion, so he decided to follow up and find out what the man was up to.“--”The man held her hair and kept dragging her deep into the woods. Reaching a specific location, he stopped, then pushed her to the ground.He pulled out a knife and pointed it in her direction. “You better cooperate, or else I will kill you right here and now, and no one will ever know. We have lost lots of lives in this city; yours will just be counted among them, and even if they find your body in this woods, it will look like you were killed alongside what had happened to the kingdom.”The man was speaking while p

The moment the woman and the man saw it, they froze, their bodies began to tremble. The eyes held a strong veil aura that, when revealed from the headband, one couldn’t stand its aura, and the energy that emitted from the eye—even when the eye wasn’t open—yet the energy it emitted was very powerful. This showed how strong the power that lay behind the eyes was.The eyes began to move around the lids, and it slightly glowed red.Jordan was so aggressive that he didn’t even know that the two people before him were trembling. The moment he noticed, he gently lifted his hands and put the headband back in place.“Annoying piece of shits...” He gritted his teeth, turned, and left.“—”The next morning.Jordan was lying on a bed, holding an apple in his hands and flipping it into the air. He couldn’t sleep yesterday; he had been thinking deeply about what the woman and the man had said. He was there to save her, and instead of thanking him, she blamed him for a million things he didn’t do.J

Julien immediately recognised who the man was at first sight, and he also had a clue on what had happened. But even then, Julien wasn’t expecting this; he was so confused and startled.Additionally, the two people who were lying dead on the ground were the same people Jordan had seen the previous night—the ones who had resented him. Because of how angry he was, he had left, not knowing that a great danger was lurking in the dark, waiting for him to leave so it could attack them.Julien walked a little closer to the people who were lying dead on the ground. He squatted and touched the man’s wrist.He lifted his gaze to Jordan, who stood stunned as well.“This isn’t natural. Something bad had happened.”“Could it be demons that attacked them?” one of the guards asked.“No, I don’t think so. This is something that was done by someone, a human like us,” Julien replied.Why Julien was so stunned and confused was because the only person having such potential that he had seen and experienced

One of them touched the side of the wood before turning to his colleague. “Someone is here...”He then began to sniff the air, and his other colleague pushed his head away. “Damien, cut the crap, and let’s get the hell out of here. You know we only have one minute to get into this portal before boss closes it. You well know how exhausting keeping up this portal to be stable is...”The man the other had referred to as Damien scoffed. “Boss can keep up this portal for as long as he can. Do you forget how endless his cultivation energy is?”The men were bragging about how strong their boss was, and Jordan was still watching from where he had hidden.“Who could be their boss, or perhaps who could have sent them, and what are they here for?” The thought crossed Jordan’s mind as he thought about it.“You know we don’t have time to waste here, so let’s get going before it’s too late,” the other man reminded his colleague.“Yap, I know...” the man named Damien replied. Then he stretched his h

The man stood in front of the man who had now fainted, but then he paused and gently turned before speaking. “I know you have been there for a very long time, listening and observing, so show yourself now.”The man had known all along that Jordan was inside the cave. The man was the one keeping the portal intact, which means anybody that had passed through the cave would be detected by him, and apart from that, he had sensed Jordan’s presence the moment his foot touched the floor of the cave.Jordan, though, was stunned at first when the man didn’t notice him, but now, after confirming that the man had known he was in the cave all along, Jordan chuckled and came out from where he was hiding behind a rock.“You know you won’t do a thing to that man, right?” Jordan assured, with a clenched fist. He would also need the man, so he could get some details about the main purpose and goals of what they were doing.The boss laughed sinisterly as he glared at Jordan. “Now the question is, will
