Map
"What's this?" Lina muttered, narrowing her brows staring at the long thin folded paper which fell into her hands."Open it and we'll see," Kael spoke, also stepping forward, his expression furrowed slightly.Nodding, Lina carefully unrolled the paper.Soon, a detailed drawing with markings all over came into their sight."A map?" Lina gasped, staring at the paper, blinking, not believing her eyes."Could it be a map to the true inheritance?" She continued, glancing at Kael, then back at the map."That should be the case," Kael nodded, his brows narrowing while he observed the map.The drawings on the map were a little bit strange and if one didn't settle to read the map, they most probably wouldn't understand it."Brother, we should currently be here," Lina spoke, pointing at a spot on the Map.The Map detailed every single thing in the sacred realm. Thus they were able to tell exactly where they were."But I don't understand this writing," Lina muttered, staring at the writings, con
Deducing With A Stranger
Kael froze, his expression changing holding the hilt of his sword, ready to attack.He hadn't noticed the figure at all, and this made him wary."You don't need to be so tense," The figure chuckled, stopping a few metres away from the two.Kael's brows narrowed even more as he slowly turned around to see who it was.Standing before him was a lady around his age. A gentle smile sat on her lips as she held his gaze, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of amusement."And you are?" Kael probed, his expression not easing in the slightest.He couldn't see through her which meant only one thing..She was way stronger than he was."I'm Jasmine," The figure answered, noticing the vigilance in Kael's voice.Though she was stronger, she felt slightly uncomfortable with that look from Kael.Kael observed the figure, weighing what she had said.He could tell she wasn't lying, but at the same time, he wasn't ready to believe her."I'm also here for the inheritance just like you two are," Jasmine spok
Followed
Kael and Lina instantly looked down on the map, confusion written in their faces."That doesn't seem right," Lina muttered, shaking her head, looking up from the paper."And exactly why I said that's the place," Jasmine countered, her gaze meeting with that of Lina.Unlike Kael, Lina's gaze was more friendly and had less weariness. This made her feel at ease a bit."Explain," Kael'scold voice rang, pulling Jasmine out of her thoughts."If you observe the map well, you'd see that beneath yours, there's a text beneath, though I don't understand the text either, I believe it's pointing at something,"Kael's expression darkened Instantly and he glanced down at the map.And just like Jasmine had said, beneath the place marked on the map where they currently were was a writing.Kael frowned slightly and read the writings. After reading it, he maintained a straight face.."And_""Brother, what does it say?" Lina asked excitedly, looking at Kael waiting for him to translate what was written.
Bait
Jasmine's expression changed hearing what Kael had said. She didn't doubt the latter even for a second.For someone who had been vigilant against her for days, it wouldn't be hard to detect such abnormalities.So she focused as they moved, trying to check out what Kael had said.After a while, her eyes flashed open and she glanced at Kael,"You're right,""What should we do?""I don't know for now," Kael answered, his expression distorting.He could feel the men closing onto them."Brother..." Lina called, moving closer to Kael,"Lina, we can't let them know we've discovered them," Kael warned, noticing Lina had slowed."But...""Your brother is right, we don't know what they want yet, the safest option is for us to keep moving," Jasmine interrupted Lina, confirming Kael's words."But then...." Lina muttered, feeling rather uncomfortable with the arrangement."Don't worry, we'll shake them off soon," Kael assured, a glint flashing in his eyes."Since they are following us, I'd suggest
Beast Scent Powder Again
The figure froze, not expecting the sudden attack from Lina. But that still didn't change the outcome as he stepped to the side, perfectly avoiding the whip.Lina frowned slightly staring at the two figures before her not daring to attack anymore.The two figures were dressed in a black robe and had a mask shielding their faces making it impossible for one to know who they were."Young lady, answer our questions, and also hand over the map you find," One of the masked figure spoke, his gaze lingering on Lina."In your dreams," Lina scoffed, backing away slowly, preparing to take to her heels."Think you can run?" One of the figures sneered and stuck out with his palm.Instantly, a violent wave of Qi surged forward, heading towards Lina.With the power contained in it, that strike was completely enough to kill her."Falling Star Pierce!""Flowing Wind!"Two distinct voices sounded at the same time, as two figures appeared, one striking out with a sword and the other with a wooden fan w
Inheritance
"Jasmine! Be careful! They are the ones behind the beast horde!" Kael roared, his voice cutting through the sounds of the crashing trees. "They have the beast powder on them!"Hearing Kael's shout, the two masked figures froze at the same time. The hollow eyeholes of their porcelain masks seemed to widen slightly for a fraction of a second. They realized their identities and their past actions had been completely exposed.The figure fighting Jasmine immediately leaped backward, abandoning its attack. It clicked its tongue softly and made a sharp hand gesture toward the one facing Kael.Without a single word, the two masked men turned around simultaneously. They tapped their feet against the ground, their bodies blurring as they shot into the deep forest like arrows. They moved with incredible speed, completely giving up on the fight now that their secret was out."Hey! Get back here!" Jasmine shouted, trying to give chase. She ran a few meters into the thicket, but the dark robes of t
Not Fit
Kael stared at the burning red talisman for a long moment, his hand hovering just inches away from the fierce heat it radiated. The heavy rejection he felt from the item didn't fade; if anything, the fiery energy inside it seemed to push against his cold sword intent even harder."Brother?" Lina called out, walking over to him after safely pocketing her sparkling crystal. She looked at the talisman, then at his conflicted face. "Is something wrong with the prize?""It’s not for me," Kael said, his voice flat but carrying a trace of disappointment. He retracted his hand completely and stepped aside. "This inheritance contains a fiery, domineering intent meant for someone who wields a spear or heavy weapons. My sword path is the complete opposite of what this talisman demands. If I force myself to learn it, it will only damage my own cultivation."Lina blinked in surprise. "Then... what are you going to do with it? We can't just leave it here after everything we went through to find thi
Gains
Seeing the immense value of the broken black jade, Kael did not hesitate for a single second. He pulled his hand back, gripping the cool stone tightly, and slid it deep into the inner pocket of his robes. "Is it really something useful?" Lina asked, looking at how carefully her brother hid the item. "It might be," Kael replied simply, keeping his voice flat to not arouse too much interest from Jasmine. "It is just a fragment, but it has some text that I can study later." Jasmine shrugged, not thinking too much about it. "Well, as long as you got something. A broken piece of jade is better than nothing, I guess." She then turned back to her scroll, entirely focused on memorizing the battle techniques written inside. Lina also sat down on the floor near the central pillar. She held the burning red talisman in her lap, closing her eyes as she began to slowly absorb the pure fire energy radiating from it. The red glow enveloped her small body, making the surrounding air slightly wa
Beast Tide Again
Jasmine’s eyes flared with battle intent as she saw the wave of savage beasts rushing toward them. She instantly stepped forward, her palms glowing with a bright, intense light once again."Get behind me!" Jasmine shouted, bracing herself to unleash a massive energy blast to push back the charging monsters. "We have to clear a path through them before we get overwhelmed!""Wait! Don't move!" Kael called out sharply, reaching out and grabbing her arm with a firm grip to pull her back."What are you doing?" Jasmine snapped, turning her head to glare at him. "They are going to trample us if we just stand here!""Look at them closely," Kael said, his voice calm and steady despite the thunderous noise of the approaching horde. "Remember the beast powder. They aren't tracking us. They are chasing the scent of the powder that those masked men laid out. If you attack them now, you will only draw their attention to us."Jasmine froze, her eyes darting back to the oncoming beasts.Lina held ont
Forced Gathering
The terrified cultivators didn't even notice Kael, Lina, or Jasmine at first. They just ran crazily, their eyes wide with horror as they pushed through the thick bushes. Within moments, dozens of people from various smaller clans inside StromPeak flooded into the small ravine, completely out of breath."Run! The beasts are coming from the peak!" a young man yelled, his robes torn and stained with blood as he stumbled past Kael."We thought the north was safe! We were wrong!" another woman screamed, tripping over a tree root but quickly scrambling back to her feet.Jasmine’s face changed instantly. She grabbed one of the passing cultivators by his collar, forcing him to stop. "What do you mean the north isn't safe? The main horde went south!""No! There's another one!" the cultivator cried out, his voice shaking with pure panic. "A massive wave of monsters just burst out from the northern ridges! They are coming down the mountain right now!"Before Jasmine could even release the man, a
