The Last Primal

For the first time in what felt like forever, the mysterious stranger that caught the attention of nearly everyone, regardless of their social standing in Ugburg and its near vicinity, has shown himself once again. As expected, his sudden appearance has attracted countless stares all around him.

Some were in awe, some were in shock, whilst others were curious and even some felt envy, jealousy towards the sudden rise of this still enigmatic figure.

"[Reptilian] There! Did you all see that?! That robed figure! He has to be him!"

"[Reptilian] Him? You mean… HIM? The guy who fought…"

"[Reptilian] Yes, who else you froghead? That's the guy… that… ehrm, what was his name again? Argh…"

There were still many bypassers, adventurers, mercenaries, and even various sect disciples in Ugburg who hadn't seen the grand spectacle of Aiden's fight before. However, there were exceptionally few who at the very least haven't heard the already mythical grade tale of his exceptional fight that shifted the power balance in the city!

Walking on the long street, Aiden could hear discussions coming from a few streets away with a mere twitch of his ears. He merely smiled, he was not bothered about such stuff.

However, before he walked far and could even reach the gates, his heart skipped a beat. He sensed a fleeting killing intent from somewhere those strange gazes!

'[Reptilian] What is it this time… Who is it?' He muttered inwardly as he slowly turned his gaze around.

He could not understand who was it this time that wanted to find trouble with him once again. After he settled the matter with the church's extermination force, he figured that he would have some breathing time… at least until the Ancient Burial Ground opens up.

Yet reality seemed to be different from his expectations once again! To think that someone would be harboring designs on him even after that bloody battle on the long street!

Aiden maintained his composure and sneered in his heart, walking towards the northern gate of Ugburg that separates the inner city from the outer 'suburbs'. At the same time he kept notice of the crowd in the distance, focusing his system's scanning on the mob.

As he expected, the killing intent followed him the entire time. Not long after he exited the inner city, Aiden even sensed another killing intent on top of the first!

He was neither fast nor slow in his speed.

About two hours later, as he left the outer city as well, Aiden was already far from Ugburg City and his surroundings were empty with no one around.

Right then, the sound of clothes flapping could be heard from behind. With a sneer inside his heart, Aiden stopped in his tracks and turned around.

In the distant horizon, two figures were flying through the air at an extremely fast speed with a murderous aura.

Narrowing his gaze, he focused his [Soul Power] to scan the figures and around their waists saw the expected insignias. Seeing this, Aiden sneered under the cover of his hood and scoffed coldly while muttering softly, this time in the common tongue. "It's indeed them!"

In the bloody battle on the long street, Aiden had killed not one, not two, but three elders or 'Archbishops' of the Church forces. Although it was because he took advantage of the circumstances, ordinary warriors wouldn't dare to provoke him either.

Furthermore, he had the backing of Azure Myst Sect. He was not someone the average citizen or adventurer would dare to offend.

However, there were two powerful forces still in Ugburg City who had sufficient strength and now, the reason to cause trouble for him.

The Crystal Palace Sect and the Malefic Demons Clan!

He had rejected Pei Syriac and that Dark Lord, who was named Yang if Aiden remembered and embarrassed them in front of everyone the other day. Given their status, there was no way they were going to let things go just like that.

Naturally, both the Crystal Palace and the Malefic Demons Clan could not strike when Aiden was with the Azure Myst Sect's base in the city. There he was protected.

However, disciples of these two powerful factions chased after him the moment he left the protection and was out of the city!

Both Crystal Palace and Malefic Demons Clan had only sent a single person each. This was clear proof of how strong these two were.

In reality, if Tai-Liu was here, she would have been able to recognize the two of them.

The disciples from Crystal Palace was called Lion Whron and the one from Malefic Demons Clan was known by his title The Dark Lord's Left Hand. Both possessed a terrifying strength, not just on par with the archbishops from before but with the many secret techniques could bevery well be more terrifying!

In the blink of an eye, Lion Whron and The Dark Lord's Left Hand had already arrived in front of him. They stood in midair, floating steadily and were looking down at Aiden from left and right.

"[Reptilian] He he he!"

Lion Whron chuckled lightly with a mocking gaze. "Look who we have caught in our net! Little lamb, aren't you gonna continue running?"

"[Reptilian] If you surrender too fast, where's the fun in the chase then? Are you prepared to surrender since you know there's no way you can run?" The demonic disciple of the Malefic Demons Clan looked with a gaze that was ice cold.

Aiden smiled silently in response. He looked at the two figures as if they were complete and utter idiots. If he were to activate his powers and wouldn't care about the aftermath not to mention running away with ease, he could even crush these two fools with ease!

The two of them descended slowly from midair, maintaining a fixed distance and were cautious of one another.

Lion Whron was the first to speak as he pointed to Aiden and said to the other Draconic Skink "[Reptilian] Let's not go round in circles here, let's put it bluntly. The moment this man is dead, we will split the treasures we can find on him and split it evenly."

"[Reptilian] Heh, that is fine. No problem from me." The Dark Lord's Left Hand nodded.

Rolling his eyes, Lion Whron continued adding one more thought. "[Reptilian] Just to be clear, I want the long dark sword he used before and is somewhere still in his possession."

"[Reptilian] That's fine… in that case, I'll take his rings." The Dark Lord's Left Hand replied.

Neither of them took Aiden seriously and were already discussing how they should split his belongings. Aiden's eyes flashed with mockery as he shook his head slightly.
