Chapter 108: Move
Time passed quietly.
About a few hours later, Alu finally came back again.
The reason why he came back naturally was because he already felt the movement from Alton and Callie.
He could feel their movements through the tracking jade they were carrying. This time, they moved far enough that they might be following Adon to find Elizabeth.
Apart from the two of them, he also felt his five new slaves following them.
When he returned, he saw Cherish and the others had fully recovered from their wounds.
"They really have a lot of good stuff." Said Alu.
Their previous injuries were obviously very severe. If they don't use healing pills, their wounds may not heal even within a few months.
And even if they used high quality healing pills, they might still need a few days to heal their wounds.
However, in just a few hours, their wounds had completely healed. It was clear that they had used healing pills that were extremely valuable even for Nirvana stage experts.
This made him feel jealous that he didn't have such things himself.
"Well, since they are already my slaves, I don't have to take precious things from them." Alu said to himself.
Even though they were only slaves, he still wanted them to grow stronger. Only then can they continue to be of use to him.
"However, apart from Henn, they all also have dragon gates. For these things, I can only take them."
From their bodies, Alu could feel the aura of the dragon gate.
There are six dragon gates, plus three in his hand, that means he will have nine dragon gates. He only needed six more before gathering them all.
Alu wondered what he would get if he managed to collect all the dragon gates.
"But before that." Alu then looked at Cherish.
Right after Cherish saw him coming, the woman immediately flew towards him.
At this point, she already looked like before. She was wearing silver armor while holding a spear in each hand.
Her eyes also still looked cold. Unlike the others, she didn't look like she wanted to give up.
When she arrived not far from him, Alu then said.
"Don't you believe I can kill you at any time?"
"Then kill me." Cherish replied in an indifferent tone. She didn't look scared to death.
She then squinted at Alu. "You seem to have three dragon gates. The other two should be from Alton and Callie. It looks like you've been waiting for us here from the start. That means Alton and Callie have become your slaves too."
When Eckbert and the others heard Cherish's words, their expressions immediately turned ugly. They suddenly realized that they were counted from the start.
Coming to this place is basically no different from getting themselves into a crocodile's mouth.
Henn who brought them here almost coughed up blood when he heard his sister's words.
Of course, he already knew that Alu let him go on purpose. But what happened at this time, it was really far beyond his expectations.
He originally thought they would have an all-out battle with Alu's defeat at the end. But what happened was a total defeat for them.
The people beside him started looking at him with eyes full of hatred.
"Henn, if there is a day where we are free from this disaster, the first person I will kill will be you." Eckbert spoke in a cold tone.
The others also nodded. They clearly had the same desires as Eckbert.
Henn is in a bad mood. Hearing Eckbert's words, his mood got more and worse.
"Hmph." He then snorted while looking at Eckbert and the others. "You can come if you are truly free."
In the end, he could only mock them to vent his anger.
"..."
Alu and Cherish paid no heed to the argument between Henn and Eckbert.
After hearing Cherish's words, Alu chuckled.
"You're pretty smart. And you're not afraid of dying either. But for now I still don't want to kill you."
"Now tell me what you want? Do you want to fight?" Alu asked.
"It is true." Cherish replied.
She then pointed one of her spears at Alu.
"We will fight fairly. As long as you can beat me, I will follow your orders for now." She says.
She looked provocative as she said that.
"Looks like you're still not sure. Okay then." Alu replied in a relaxed tone.
"As long as I don't use an external object, any tricks I use won't matter, right."
"Sure. As long as it's your own strength."
After saying that, Cherish immediately moved towards Alu.
Spiritual energy that looked like thunder erupted from her body which was followed by a surge of spiritual source.
She has twenty-six thousand spiritual sources.
Coupled with mysterious techniques, her spiritual source instantly reached 29999 spiritual sources. It had already reached the limit of the Life and Death stage.
Whooss...
With her armor emitting light, she truly looked like light as she flew.
"Such strength, even I will need quite a long time if I want to defeat you. Unfortunately now is not the right time." Alu said in a low voice.
"Because of that, I can only use a trick to end this battle right away."
After saying that, Alu then opened his palm. On that palm, appeared a transparent figure that was the core of the concealment formation.
Buzzz...
Alu threw the transparent figure into his chest, and in an instant, his figure suddenly disappeared from the sight of Cherish and the others.
"Concealment formation." Everyone who sees Alu can recognize what Alu is using.
Now they finally realized why they couldn't find Alu's whereabouts when they first came to this place.
When Cherish arrived at where Alu had disappeared, her expression immediately turned gloomy.
When Alu's body disappeared, she completely lost track of Alu.
She looked left and right to find Alu.
"You cheated." She suddenly shouted.
"The prince is a spirit master. He personally created the formation. So it's still his own power." Reva responded to Cherish's shout.
Her tone sounded sneering.
Seeing Cherish who doesn't want to submit to Alu annoys Reva. She felt like waking her up with cold water.
Cherish looked at Reva with cold eyes.
Amongst the younger generation, no woman dared speak to her in such a tone. If it weren't for the circumstances, she would have thrown her spear at Reva.
Seeing Cherish's cold gaze, Reva responded with a mocking smile.
"It is enough."
A cold voice suddenly echoed right behind Cherish.
When Cherish looked behind her, she found Alu standing right behind her. And he put a knife around her neck.
"If you still don't want to submit, then I can only kill you now." Said Alu.
Cherish didn't speak, but she gritted her teeth at Reva.
In reality, even if Alu could hide, it wouldn't be that easy to defeat her. However, if Alu got too close to her, she was sure she could sense Alu's existence by instinct.
But Reva's provocation caught her off guard so Alu could easily approach her and even put a knife around her neck.
If Alu had actually slashed the knife into her neck, her neck would definitely be cut in half.
Even though they were still at the Life and Death stage, one second off guard was enough for the enemy to chop off their heads.
"Huh." Cherish finally retracted her aura.
She then looked at Alu with a dissatisfied expression.
"This time I admit defeat. But next time I'll challenge you again. If you lose, I would rather die than have to follow your orders." She says.
Even though Alu won on his own terms, Cherish clearly still felt cheated.
"Hmm." Alu sneered when he heard Cherish's words. "Next time you may not be able to hold out under my aura." Replied Alu.
After saying that, he ignored Cherish. He then looked at the other five people who also had dragon gates.
"Now hand over your dragon gates." He says.
At the moment of saying that, Alu inserted a dragon gate into his shirt pocket.
When he had appeared behind Cherish earlier, he had managed to take the dragon gate from Cherish's body.
Whoosss... Whooss... Whooss...
The other five people didn't dare to argue, they immediately threw their dragon gates at Alu.
After gathering all the dragon gates, Alu then took out the core of the concealment formation he had just created.
"You all use this." Alu said while throwing the core of the concealment formation at each of the people there.
Apart from that, Alu also gave them tracking jade so they could sense each other's presence when they used the concealment formation.
"All right, now is the time to tell you what I want to do." Alu smiled.
After that, Alu started explaining to them what he wanted to do.
Of course, he did not explain the gist of his plan. He only explained the outline.
Elizabeth!
When they heard Elizabeth's name, even Cherish couldn't help but change her expression.
"From your expression, you seem to know this Elizabeth very well. I wonder where you two come from? I've never heard of anyone like you in the thousand islands region." Cherish then asked.
