The Chaos Dragon Prince
Chapter 46 - Deep Within The Liang Tribe

"Relax, we're not here to kill or continue to torture you or anything like that. I guess you can say we're your saviors in a way."

Cain assuredly spoke. His tone was indifferent, a bit cold in a way, garnering only little sympathy for the Kong Clan's son.

Even in his previous life, Cain wasn't the type of guy to feel empathy or sympathy so easily. He guesses that years of loneliness and disconnection made him a bit stone-hearted.

In front of his eyes is an actual victim of war. The Liang Tribe committed merciless actions, all for the sake of gaining an edge.

Even as the Kong Clan isn't innocent on their own, the Kong Clan son was still a young youth now thrust into the cruel fires of war.

It was a truly tragic situation.

But also a situation Cain can fathom he'll see more times than he can count for. With the absolute power these cultivators can hold, he'll bound to see far more actual atrocious deeds.

In a way, while it may sound cold, Cain was pleased he barely felt any sympathy. Unless it's someone close to him, emotions like this would only get in his way.

And when thinking of people close to him, Cain subconsciously trailed his eyes over to Kali. He internally nodded, seeing that she as well had a stone-cold reaction.

Several times already, Kali displayed overt disdain for all lower realm cultivators.

Cain was sure there probably wouldn't be anything on this Mortal Planet at all that could genuinely move her heart.

God Galaxy cultivators and the pride of a Dragon truly is a different type of mindset.

After glancing for only a short moment, Cain tossed his eyes back over to the Kong Clan's son.

Cain's eyebrows furrowed a bit, seeing that he was cautiously staring at them instead of answering back. 'Although, I suppose this situation is like getting saved from dangerous monsters by another set of dangerous monsters.'

Cain mused to himself. And in all technicality, he and Kali really are monstrous beasts at the highest orders.

Pushing down his own amusement, Cain continued to speak.

"Look, we truly didn't kill and steal clothes from your Clan. Just check this out."

In that instance, Cain reached into his pocket, surging his spatial ring, and pulled out the Kong Clan Captain badge.

"Ah-ah! Is that?! No way!"

The Kong Clan's sone was immediately shocked beyond belief. His eyes nearly popped out of his sockets as he shakily pointed at that badge.

Even if the badge was miles away from him, he could instantly recognize it. Growing up in his Clan, it was quite literally impossible to avoid it. And he's more than aware of how tightly guarded these badges were.

So since Cain had this badge, this could only mean….!

"You really are a Captain from my Kong Clan! But-but just who are you two? And how you just so monstrously powerful?"

The Kong Clan's son, whose name was Lian, felt an intense mix of elation and worry. Elation over the fact he's truly going to get rescued by people personally recognized from his Clan.

But also worried over these two origins.

Even now, Lian still couldn't perceive how powerful Cain and Kali's natural aura are. He could only feel a vague sensation that they were at the Nascent Formation realm.

If that great battle didn't happen, Lian would've mistakenly took them as weak Nascent Formation cultivators. A slight shudder crawled up his spine over making a terrifying mistake like that.

As Lian fell into a mixed reaction, Cain plainly told him, "We're just simple travelers. The Liang Tribe pissed us off as well, so we naturally have enmity with them."

Hearing Cain's explanation, Lian slowly calmed down. "I see….they are all quite unruly. Then, you two have my absolute thanks. I'm forever grateful for this save."

Cain simply nodded and then raised a single finger.

A small stream of Nascent Qi formed at the tip of this finger, and Cain then flicked his finger, sending the stream of Nascent Qi right towards Lian's chain.

A dull sound echoed out as Lian's chains were destroyed.

Immediately when he was set free, Lian exhaled a great sigh of relief. Even though this situation was entirely strange, he couldn't help but feel tremendously happy at this moment.

Being abused and beaten like a mere slave took a tremendous toll on his mind. After this, he wasn't sure he'll ever be the same. But above all, he's extremely grateful that he'll be able to live as a free man.

Right now, in Lian's eyes, Cain and Kali seemed far less monstrous. His eyes changed to the utmost of gratitude as he slowly stood up.

While rising to his feet, Kali spoke for the first time since coming here, asking him,

"Hey, if you're so grateful, then maybe you can repay us now. Don't worry, we don't want anything like resources or money. We just want to know if you heard about anything useful from those captains or really, anyone here."

"Hmmm…."

For a brief moment, Lian leaned on the desk after standing up. His muscles and joints were aching, but it wasn't anything a healing pill couldn't fix up.

In this short moment, he began recalling everything he heard from those arrogant Kong Clan members.

Several pieces of information immediately popped up into his mind. But Lian quickly shot them down.

Considering Cain and Kali's prowess, they had no need for any small-time information. The information they needed was something big, something that could make a tremendous impact on the Liang Tribe as a whole.

Upon coming to this thought, Lian's eyes swiftly snapped back open. His eyes sparkle with a bright glint as he said, "That's it! The Liang Tribe holds this very specifically crafted key that leads to a sealed cave. In this cave, it is full of World Spirit Master's Spirit Energy. And if one has the hidden potential for it, that cave can instantly convert that person into a World Spirit Force Master."

"Oh?"

Both Cain and Kali's attentions were greatly piqued. Becoming a World Spirit Force Master was all too enticing.

With their various and numerous abilities, it would undoubtedly help them on their current journey and far into the future.

Since they left in such haste, neither Cain nor Kali had the option to see if they could sneakily become World Spirit Force Masters inside their homes.

So this opportunity seemed like an incredible stroke of luck!

Cain kept his emotions in check as then asked, "That cave would absolutely be beneficial for us. So just where is this magical key?"

"Ah right the key….the key is….oh, shit." Suddenly Lian's elated mood turned downtrodden.

Noticing the sibling duo's confused expression, he was quick to explain, "Last I heard them talk about the key is that they're transferring it to a Head Captain. And I was able to gather that these Head Captains should at least be in late ranks of the Nascent Formations realms! But this was all some time ago. I fear that even if you follow their maps, that key is now hidden deep within their compound."

Hearing this, Cain and Kali shot a look between each other. Within both of their eyes, they can clearly see unwavering confidence.

So what if the key is being held by a late rank Nascent Formation master?

So what if it's being held deep within their Tribe?

None of that will stop them!

With the way to become World Spirit Force Master at their mere fingertips, the sibling duo definitely won't let this opportunity go.

Cain was more than sure about making a brief invasion because of their cultivation speed, combat prowess, and Chaotic Emerald.

Still, there was one more thing Cain had to ask Lian before heading out.

"Hidden deep within, huh? Alright then, and by the way, could you sense some form of energy in it if you ever were around that key? Like energy similar to the Spirit Flag here?"

Lian thought the question over for a moment before his eyes gained a bright shine. "Yea….hey yea! During my time here, I was lucky enough to be close enough to sense that key. And I'm one hundred percent sure the key and Spirit Flag have the same energy running through it."

As he finished talking, Lian's expression turned questioning. "But why do you want to know this? It's basically impossible to gain that key now."

In response to Lian's doubts, Cain and Kali gave a slight, mysterious smile.

"You don't need to know what we're planning to do. Just know we're going to be clearing out the valuables of this place as the spoils of our victory. Then, afterward, we'll be going our separate ways."

Kali was the one to explain. Her words struck deep into Lian's mind.

At first, he was confused, but he connected the dots within their action and words only just seconds after.

His expression turned worrying as he hastily said, "Wait, wait! You two are not actually considering going down there, right?? You know, deep within their Tribe, there are several peak Nascent Formation masters. Furthermore, they also have legendary Profound Soul powerhouses! You will certainly die going down there!"

"Is that so?" Cain had a twinkle glinting in his eyes along with Kali. He then continued to say, "As we said, you don't need to worry about us. Farewell."

Immediately when he finished talking, Cain and Kali's bodies swayed, vanishing from Lian's sight.

Left all alone, Lian stared with a blank expression at were Cain and Kali previously stood. His mind couldn't wrap around their thoughts process at all.

Sure they were very powerful, but to the point where they can deal with several peak Nascent Formations?

Lian found that as an extreme exaggeration.

No matter what plan they had, how could it possibly be enough to contend with an entire powerhouse of a Tribe!

Lian could only shake his head at this point. But, since the duo is gone, he'll need to rely on himself to make it back home.. And hopefully, with a bit of luck, he'll make it back unscathed.
