Chapter 1055: Roan Loves Sincerity
Roan’s Dark World then disappeared behind Sutil, revealing the two remaining clones. The twins usually controlled four. However, the Water Vortex hit two of them. As they cost a lot of Divine Soul Power to form, Rean and Roan create two more clones again.
Sutil, however, wouldn’t give up so easily. ‘I want to see how you’ll hold me down without that darkness skill of yours,’ he thought.
‘Lightning Flash!’
Lightning Element gathered around him as Divine Energy burst out of Sutil’s body. After that, he ran through the biggest opening in the twins’ encirclement, trying to escape from there.
Unfortunately for him, all Sutil could do was hear Roan’s words of disappointment through Divine Sense. ‘Such a predictable action… if you had selected any other direction, it would have increased your chance by quite a lot. However, you couldn’t even stop to think why there was such an opening in this place. Seriously, how many times have you fought others in your life? I wonder how you even reached the Late Stage of the Saint Realm as an idiot.’
*Grab!*
Suddenly, vines of Dark Element came out of the ground, attaching to Sutil’s legs.
‘Death Style, First Energy Form, Shadow Bind!’
Sutil gritted his teeth in response and immediately reacted.
‘Thunder Burst!’
*Kabrummm!*
Lightning Element and Divine Energy discharged from Sutil’s body, pulverizing Roan’s Shadow Bind skill. However, he also understood that he had lost some precious time to do that. So, instead of running, he turned around.
‘Lightning Wave!’
Sutil immediately used his defensive skill, which was the right decision this time.
*Bzzzzzz*
*Clang, clang, clang!*
He was able to defend against Rean and Roan’s Three Claws of the Dragon, which were six blades attacking him at once. His Lightning Defense, which used his previous Thunder Burst’s remaining Lightning Element, succeeded in stopping the twins’ attack and even forced them back a little.
Of course, one must remember that the twins, when together, were even able to fight Late Saint Realm Cultivators head-on! With that being said, Sutil had to use a lot of his power to fend off against the twins’ attacks. As for the twins’ remaining two clones, they were even less of a help. After all, they were a lot weaker than the twins themselves. When the Thunder Burst exploded, they were already forced far away by Sutil’s power.
Sutil then took the chance to run away once again. Unfortunately for him, the twins had Rean’s Enhancement skill and Roan’s Shadow Steps. Neither skill lost in speed to Sutil’s Lightning Flash. Besides…
‘Hey, how long will you keep running?’ Rean asked with a Divine Sense message. ‘You should know by now that we didn’t kill you because we don’t want to. You will only make things more painful for yourself.’
Sutil was enraged by Rean’s words. “Shut up!” Of course, he wouldn’t stop just because Rean said so. He still held onto that sliver of hope that he would find a way to escape.
‘Death Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!’
‘Stellar Piercer!’
‘Stellar Piercer!’
As the twins followed Sutil closely, they kept using their ranged attack. Piercing rays of Light and Dark Elements continued to come flying in Sutil’s direction, forcing him to dodge or use even more Divine Energy each time.
Behind the twins, Eminia and Fatax used the Golden Rascol to follow them from behind. That was their only choice as the Rascol only obeyed Rean. Besides, they now understood that the enemy knew they were outside. After seeing the twins’ power, they knew that their best chance at reaching Giliga was to rely on the twins. It was as simple as that.
The pursuit lasted up to twenty minutes. On the way, Sutil did encounter other cultivators. After all, this was still somewhat considered close to Kilas City. One must remember that even ‘small’ cities had hundreds of millions of people, so it made sense to find some people even after a few hundred kilometers from the city. Especially since they weren’t inside the demon beasts’ territory.
Unfortunately, none of them had a level of cultivation that Sutil could make use of. He did try to shout that he would pay thousands of Divine Stones if they helped him. However, seeing the level of the battle, none of the people dared to even get close. Let’s not forget that it’s still hard to find cultivators above the Nascent Soul Realm due to the issue of ‘finding one’s path.’
Sutil didn’t try to use anyone as hostages either. Not that he didn’t want to, but he knew that at the moment he changed his direction to try to capture someone, the twins would definitely catch up to him. Poor Sutil failed to realize that the twins could catch up to him at any time, but they wanted him to use all his Divine Energy first.
Eventually, the Divine Energy in Sutil’s Dantian ran dry, even though he tried to recover it using his own Divine Stones along the way. In the end, he could only turn around and pledge. “Wait, wait! Let’s make a deal! What do you want? Divine Stones? I can pay you a huge amount if you let me go! How about that?”
Sutil then took off his spatial ring and showed it to the twins as he pleaded, “There are 5000 Divine Stones in this spatial ring! However, if you attack me, I will break the ring. You should know that any item inside a spatial ring will be eternally lost if the spatial ring is destroyed, right?”
Rean and Roan, who stopped right in front of Sutil, looked back at Eminia and Fatax as Rean asked them, “Well, 5000 Divine Stones are a lot. What do you say, Eminia?”
Sutil’s eyes lit up as he also looked at Eminia. If she didn’t have the stones to surpass his offer, he would still have a chance!
Eminia was taken aback. “Wait! Didn’t you say that you didn’t care much about Divine Stones?”
“Don’t care about Divine Stones?” Sutil had a bad premonition when he heard that.
*Swish!*
Suddenly, a ray of Light and Dark Element swiftly passed through his wrist, cutting his hand off.
*Arrrgh!*
Rean then took the spatial ring from the fallen hand, nodding as he replied, “Indeed, we don’t care too much. However, it’s not like we will throw them away either.”
Sutil immediately understood. They made him focus on Eminia for a moment and used that chance to take his spatial ring!
Roan completely ignored the spatial ring and stopped in front of Sutil, telling him, “It’s time for the question and answer portion. I love how sincere I can make a person become during these times.”
