Chapter 4114 Rescuing the Goldsun Clan

"So what if it's a Level Nine Empyrean or an Autarch? Can't we get rid of the kill mark all the same?"

Illumina reached out her hand, appearing as though she was going to torture him to death with the remaining time left as she moved to wake Aric Stormsong up.

However, King intervened.

"Don't. These idiots don't know the difference between an Empyrean and an existence above the Empyrean Stage."

"How can that be?" Illumina frowned.

"This has to do with karmic burden and also growth. The human race is weirdly concerned about harming the future prospects of their young ones by revealing the wider world all in one setting. They think they aren't prepared unless they've become Immortal Emperors or even Empyreans, but that's bullshit. Usually, when these geniuses reach the Immortal Emperor Stage, they start to learn about the wider world, but this fool here still seems ignorant. Perhaps he really has been abandoned."

"Doesn't that mean he wouldn't have a kill mark?"

Illumina knew kill mark was the broad term used for the immortal mark. After all, it would activate when the person under the mark's protection was nearly killed or after being killed.

"He would still have one. Just because he's no longer being nurtured doesn't mean he isn't one of them. They have their face to hold. You, of all people, should know."

King chuckled, causing Illumina to sigh.

She was an imperial guard, so of course, she knew what it meant to rattle the beehive by harming even a single member. Even killing one of them would induce a severe reaction where they would come out in droves to protect their face, enact justice, or have a justified reason for plundering like they were doing now.

"He might have someone who adores him despite his shortcomings as well." Illumina nodded.

King nodded in agreement and continued, "Besides, in the eyes of an Immortal Emperor and lesser beings, they wouldn't be able to differentiate between an Empyrean and an above existence as it becomes impossible to accurately sense their power unless those powerful beings directly unleashed their pressure, in which case, their only option would be becoming disabled from having their senses overwhelmed or die in an instant from their soul collapsing or body shattering. The world belonging to above Empyreans existences is not the world of immortals."

He shook his head wryly, "Back then, I had seen a huge battle from millions of kilometers away. Just the shockwaves alone ruined my dragon body, sending me flying hundreds of kilometers away. I had to run for my life. I didn't even consider it embarrassing and turned my tail to flee. I had to hide and recover for fifteen years because of it."

He scoffed and took a deep breath before he smirked, "Fortunately, the Lower Realms doesn't have that kind of battle. Here, I am King!"

"Do you wish to remain here?" Illumina cast him a perplexed glance.

"Of course not! As a dragon, I need to reach the apex or die trying!"

King raised his hand before he shot a grin at Illumina, "Do you want to become my woman?"

"..." Illumina's eyes narrowed, "The next time you ask will be your death date."

"You're one prideful rabbit." King chuckled before he shrugged, "So you're after the Divine Emperor of Death? You two were hugging and all..."

"Did you kill him?" King raised his brows.

Soaren's gaze flickered, "I let him go because he confessed but wouldn't have been so lenient if he had been silent."

"He knows your temperament well. You're being taken advantage of." King chuckled.

The time he spent with Soaren was short, but he knew what kind of manly beast he was.

"Doesn't matter." Soaren shook his head, "If my people wish to be subservient to the Sunborn Clan, so be it. We were originally supposed to reunite and join as a branch clan after the Candidacy, anyway. It is the clan's original wish. I won't sacrifice them for my gain. However, telling me that they want to join the Sunborn Clan after I brought them all back to our place would be akin to death."

"Didn't you just knock them out before asking them? How will they consent?" King raised his brows again.

"..." Soaren appeared speechless.

King sneered, "A bird is indeed a bird."

"Fuck you! The Fifth Void Dust Sanctuary will be their final stop if they want to change their minds. Isn't that why Fairy Mingzhi is there?"

"Finally, you can think. Calm down and leave the fighting to us. You just leave as quickly as possible. As an Immortal Emperor Beast, you will only be a hindrance for us."

"Heh, what do you think of me as?"

Soaren punched out, causing the color of heaven and earth to change as a terrifying blue-gold talon descended on King. The talon was made up of dark blue-gold yin-yang flames. They blazed with a terrifying heat.

King was alarmed. He waved his hand, easily shattering Soaren's punch, but the sheer power of the strike left him feeling dumbstruck for an entire minute, unable to believe how a mere King-Tier Level Nine Immortal Emperor Beast could reach eleven levels higher in prowess!

That was not something an Emperor-Tier Beast would be capable of!

'Is... is this the power of an Anarchic Divergent Beast...?' His gaze shook.

He fancied this power, wanting to also be as powerful as Soaren. Otherwise, how could he continue to call himself to be King both in name and title?

"So, do we leave or stay?" Illumina raised her brows.

She wasn't scared of a battle. The more she killed, the more she felt she would be able to attract Davis's attention. After all, killing and bringing back corpses was also an achievement since it could be used for various things including strengthening herself and other magical beasts.

"We leave."

Soaren Goldsun uttered. After boarding the flying ship they used, they left.

Exactly five minutes later, the Realm Master of the Golden Crow Clan, Arata Sunborn, descended. A few Heaven's Warriors also showed up later. Their soul senses scoured the land and the sky, seeking traces, but their expressions churned as they couldn't find any.

It was impeded by an illusion formation that they couldn't easily detect.
