Chapter 1909 Shall we all talk a little?
They knew they were running against time, so they didn't even spare the demon beasts from it. Of course, they first grabbed any humanoid race members they saw, making them move close to feel their bodies with their natural spatial perceptions. Next were the demon beasts themselves, just in case there was a chance of the twins being able to disguise themselves like one of them.
Yet, the more they checked those guys, the worse their expressions became. Not even the demon beasts in the building where Roan reported his presence knew where he was. All it said was that Roan left as soon as he showed himself. He simply disappeared soon after.
"He must be hiding somewhere outside the city," the leader of the group immediately said. It was Sufo, the same one who went to check on the information about the twins in the Huring Sect.
"Just to check all the beings in this city that fit the description already took us over an hour. We don't know how far from the city they are... if they are in this city at all, that is," the other immediately complained. This one was Prodal, surprisingly one of the few humanoid experts of the Jakarta Sect with a real Star Body.
"We have no choice. We need to find him and his sect members. Especially the white-haired boy or that Sea Chilling Spirit." The cultivators didn't want to give up, though. The last one was from the Himaria Clan, Someone called Flinyu.
Outside the city, Sister Orb continued to watch everything from afar. [They should be getting impatient now. I wouldn't be surprised if they just start killing everyone to try and find us.]
Roan shrugged his shoulders in response. "I have nothing to do with any of those demon beasts or the rest. I won't come out befor-"
It was then that four more powerful Divine Senses fell over the city, quickly catching the three humanoid experts' attention. "Shit! They're here."
The sky turned blue as the Water Element became excited in all the surroundings. As that happened, an enormous Azure Dragon came out from behind the fabric of space as he talked with the humanoid experts. "You have quite some courage to barge into the demon beast territory uninvited."
Sifo snorted in response. He wasn't afraid of the Azure Dragon at all. "Look if it isn't the Regal Bloodline Azure Dragon. And you really had the gall to say that? That female demon beast right on your side did exactly the same thing to us. Or are you going to say that old Linfia didn't go pay a visit to Huring Continent?"
Linfia couldn't care less. "Hmph! That's your fault for having such weak defenses." She said that, but she was far from her peak strength. One must remember that she was quite injured during the escapade from the humanoid races' territories.
Prodal then came forward and demanded. "Placake, give the black-haired twin to us. Do you really want to start a war between the humanoids and demon beasts? Only the devils will benefit from that. The knowledge that boy and spirit have on formations is too important."
Placake laughed in response. "Hahaha! Do you think we are idiots? You should know better than us that we haven't found him yet. Your spies did quite a good job passing the information over for you to arrive so much earlier than us."
Prodal didn't deny that. He was simply testing the waters.
Sifo then internvened. "That doesn't matter. What matters is that we know at least one of the System Sect guys is here, that black-haired twin. Are you going to give them up if you get them or not?"
"Their knowledge in formations are just as beneficial for our bloodline formations as they are for your humanoid ones. We aren't idiots. A lot can be gained from those Circuitry Formations. The spirits are the only ones who can't see it," replied Placake. "Besides, the System Sect left a lot of Circuitry Formations behind for you in that Free Continent, no? How about you focus on that and leave?"
"Hmph!" Sifo obviously wouldn't take that. "All they left were the supporting formations. The main formations that were the heart of their communication system disappeared together with their sect. Sure, we'll have a very good look at those formations, antennas, routers, etc... However, I wouldn't mind trading all that for the white-haired twin and that Sea Chilling Spirit."
"Dream on," Placake immediately refused.
Both sides went silent for a moment as the tension increased. This was the demon beasts' territory, and they had one extra expert on their side. However, the humanoids weren't weak by no means. It was obvious that they also had a secret method to cross the Gods Dividing Barrier, just like Lanfia, without suffering too much.
Yet, just as the tension was about to explode into an all-out fight, someone suddenly teleported right in the middle of these experts. "Now, now, now. Aren't we all acting like children here? I'm sure we can reach a good deal if we talk calmly."
Everyone was shocked by the guy's sudden appearance. It was none other than Rean who used the Circuitry Teleport Formation in the Dimensional Realm to go there. None of the experts had started a fight yet, and for them, scrambled space meant nothing as they could enter and leave spatial storms with ease. With that being said, the space was not restricted. 'Well, I was also quite lucky to teleport in the right position. After all, the Circuitry Teleport Formation's arrival point is always quite random,' Rean thought.
Rean then raised his hand, continuing, "Oh, and you better not think of capturing me before the other does. With your cultivations, the other side definitely wouldn't stay still. I will probably be reduced to dust before any of you can even touch me."
That was exactly why neither the demon beasts nor the humans acted straight away. Fighting the other side wasn't a problem. However, because none of them had Rean in their hands yet, they couldn't protect him either. Both sides had already started to fight for spatial control around Rean's location, and none were holding back. For now, they couldn't risk Rean's life.
"Look how well behaved all of you are. So, shall we talk a little?" Rean asked with a smile, seeing them silent.
