Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 58: Suspicious

Whooss...

A few moments later, Alu pulled back the fire.

After that, he said. "You can stand now... This is over. You two are my followers from now on."

Roux and Reva who were on their knees then stood back up.

However, even though Alu said that they had become his followers, there was no cheerful expression on their faces. On the contrary, they seemed more terrified than before.

Now, how could they not know what Alu did to them.

Even though they didn't understand how Alu did it, they could feel a change in their soul essence.

Right now, they could feel a foreign power within their soul essence. And it made them feel as if a knife had been placed around their neck. If it moved even a little, it could easily take their lives.

Finding something like that at the core of their life, how could they possibly remain calm.

The feeling they felt right now was like they were on the edge of death at any moment. Even a god couldn't live in peace with such feelings, not to mention that it was just the two of them.

Only now did they realize that they had become complete slaves.

Of course, in the cultivation world itself there are many things that can limit a person, even something that limits the soul can still be found. But Roux and Reva both knew that what was happening to their souls right now was far more terrifying.

The more Roux and Reva studied their bodies, the paler their expressions became.

Alu's power basically merged with their souls, and it also grew with their souls. In other words, it's like Alu being a part of them.

Alu might not be able to control them completely, but if he wanted them to die, they could only die.

"Are you sorry?"

Alu suddenly spoke while they were observing their bodies.

Alu's voice woke them up. They raised their heads and looked at Alu.

As they saw Alu's cold gaze upon them, they quickly shook their heads.

They said. "How can we regret it. To be your followers is a glory to us."

"Very nice." Alu then nodded. He didn't care whether they were sorry or not. Since their life was already hiss, their thoughts didn't really matter anymore.

"Rest assured. Following me may not be easy, but there will be a bright future waiting for you. Your future is not limited to this small place. In the future, as long as you can continue to live, you can follow me to explore the vast great world." Alu said.

Alu's words made their worries lessened, but the last sentence Alu spoke made their faces turn pale once again.

They are smart enough to understand Alu's words. Although Alu did not say that they would die, there was an implication that they might not be able to continue living.

Of course, since no one could know the future, it would be impossible for even Alu to plan their deaths for now. But it is clear that Alu is not someone who is kind to his followers. As long as the circumstances required their death, Alu clearly had no qualms about sending them to death.

This made them want to cry. But they can only try to smile. It was their own fault for making the devil their master.

The devil can provide a future, but there is a price they must pay.

"All right, now tell me why you two came to this place. Is it because of Varog?" Alu then asked. He glanced at Varog's headless body as he asked.

"Mn." Reva nodded in response to Alu's question.

"The two of us met quite quickly. But on the way, we happened to meet Varog's group. We actually had disguised ourselves, but Varog was still able to recognize us. He chased us after that." Reva answered with an embarrassed expression.

Reva naturally knows what happened to them has caused trouble to Alu's plans.

"When we were fleeing from Varog, we found one of Krinn's jade immovable. We suspected it was you, Your Majesty, so we chose to go to this place."

"Alright..." Alu then raised his hand to stop Reva from continuing to speak.

"No need to talk about that anymore... Now I want to tell you my plan. Right now I no longer plan to join Krinn to kill Jather, on the contrary, I want to kill Krinn." Alu then says his new plan.

When Roux and Reva heard of Alu's new plan, they weren't too surprised. But they look a little worried.

They were not surprised that previously Alu had even planned to kill Jather, the young master of the Holy Light clan. Even if he abandoned his plans, killing Krinn was definitely nothing compared to killing Jather.

Only, compared to Jather, Krinn was definitely a lot harder to kill right now. After all, as the ones who wielded Krinn's jade, they knew quite clearly how many people Krinn had around.

And among those people, there were even a few tier two faction heirs. If they didn't follow Alu, they wouldn't even dare to look at those people.

If Alu wanted to kill Krinn, he naturally had to come face to face with those guys.

Roux and Reva aren't sure if Alu can fight them all. And that's just by judging Krinn's strength on the surface. They don't know if Krinn has any other hidden cards.

Seeing the worry on their faces, Alu spoke again. "You don't need to worry about anything. Even if Krinn really has some hidden power that I don't know, I'm sure I can escape while protecting the two of you..."

ALU doesn't feel too worried about Krinn. Even if he had some hidden strength, that shouldn't be too much either. If not, why would he have gathered so many people to kill Jather. It was clear he didn't have the ability to do it himself.

Right after Alu said that, he suddenly narrowed his eyes. Roux and Reva did the same.

"Ohh, they've moved."

"Let's go, we'll talk on the way."

After that, Alu immediately flew towards the direction where Krinn and his followers were.

Roux and Reva looked at each other for a moment before flying after Alu.

When Alu and the others flew off, they again covered their faces.

"Looks like Krinn has found Jather." Alu thought as he flew.

That's not surprising either. Jather, however, is a proud genius. Even if he knew he was the target of many, with his pride, there was no way he would choose to hide.

Alu then glanced back and spoke.

"Have you guys heard of a certain place around here?" Alu asked.

The holy path, however, is full of magic places that have many opportunities.

Since Alu went into seclusion not long after he entered the holy path, he in the end did not have any knowledge of what had happened during this time.

But Roux and Reva toured a lot of places. Even though they were bullied by Varog the whole time, they must have heard some big news.

If Krinn and Jather clashed, they must have done it in those magical places.

ALU wanted to know what kind of place they were going to.

Alu's question made Reva nod. She says. "Yes, I have heard of a place called the dragon gate. It is said that it is the entrance to the depths of the holy path."

"Ohhh..." ALU pondered for a while after hearing Reva's words. "I don't know what kind of place it is, but they might be headed there. Let's hurry up."

Alu sped up his flight after saying that.

Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...

They flew through many mountains, forests and rivers.

As they went further and further, they encountered many people who had entered the holy path.

The people they had met were no longer limited to the people from the Holy Light continent. It's already mixed with people from other continents. Most of them came from the smaller continents around the Holy Light continent.

Even though the strength of the continents was weaker than the Holy Light continent, there were still several two tier factions in those continents. Their strength also cannot be underestimated.

Of course, what Alu encountered wasn't the people from that large faction. The people that Alu passed were mostly people from low tier factions. Their cultivation is mostly still at the True Spiritual stage. They fight against wild beasts while looking for treasures that can help them break through to the Life and Death stage.

Only those who broke through to the Life and Death stage could travel further into the depths of the holy path.

While passing people with Life and Death stage cultivation, Alu heard that their destination was also a magical place called the dragon gate.

"Mnn..."

As Alu gets closer to Krinn's group, Alu finds the group starting to stop somewhere.

"They should still be far from the dragon gate. Why did they stop?" Alu wondered. And he also started to feel alert.

Krinn is definitely a shrewd person. With Alu's movements all this time, even if he made lots of plausible excuses, Krinn would definitely still be suspicious of him.

"Are they waiting for us?"

"Maybe!"

Alu begins to slow down his flight as he gets closer to Krinn's location.

"Hisss..." ALU took a deep breath as she suddenly smelled a different scent. "The smell of the sea. I didn't expect there to be a sea in this place. It looks like the dragon gate mentioned is in the sea." Alu speaking.

Not long after Alu smelled the scent of the sea, Alu began to see a fairly wide beach.

On the beach, Alu saw many people gathered. Their number exceeded a hundred.

As Alu and the others entered their line of sight, they all immediately turned their gazes towards them.

Alu narrowed his eyes as he felt the gaze of all of them.

"Mm..." As Alu also stared at them, his expression immediately turned serious.

"Why are they here?"

What Alu really meant was the people of the Phoenix clan.

Because they are related by blood, Alu can feel their presence among the people on the beach.

"Were they captured by Krinn?"

Since Krinn knew his identity, it wouldn't be surprising at all for Krinn to target the people of the Phoenix clan if he was wary of him.

But despite knowing the situation was getting out of hand, Alu still took a leisurely stride towards Krinn's group.
