Unsealing: Omnipotent Father

As Mo Xie and the others reached the empire's gates, Ha Qiqi couldn't help but ask: "Elder Xie, do you not have any flying artifacts?"

Mo Xie shook his head: "I have my flying beast."

Immediately as he spoke, his bracelet shone bright and Zhuding appeared: "Master." He immediately greeted, after a long time, he finally digested everything he had eaten, making him reach Celestial Phenomenon rank as well, not only that, he's already at high-stage! 

Zhuding couldn't help but remember his wisest decision of following Mo Xie then.

The elders and disciples couldn't help but be awed, There are no short of Celestial Phenomenon ranked demonic beasts, but one thing is for certain, draconic beasts of such level is rare! Even for the great clans, they only had one each!

All those high ranked draconic beasts are personal partners of the great powers, and for Mo Xie to get the same beast as them?

From their perspective, Mo Xie became more and more mysterious, even wondering from where he originally came, which power he was from.

Just so one knows, a Celestial Phenomenon ranked draconic beast is comparable to more than a hundred demonic beasts of the same rank. Although there are a number of draconic beasts in the kingdom, only a few of them are at Celestial Phenomenon rank.

But they didn't know though, just a few years ago, this draconic beast was but only a twenty-meter snake, and, its potential doesn't stop at being a draconic beast, although almost at the last of the list, it's a future heavenly beast!

Mo Xie jumped above Zhuding, he looked at the rest of them: "I think it'll be better if all of us ride my beast?"

He thought that their flying artifacts wouldn't be as fast as Zhuding, hence, he offered.

And of course, all of them immediately nodded.

Zhuding had already become a two hundred feet long draconic beast, the space he can provide is already massive. And, it's a rather difficult opportunity to ride a Celestial Phenomenon ranked draconic beast.

Zhuding felt quite proud of his current standing, but he didn't really let it get over his head, after all, everything was done with Mo Xie's help. 

It was supposed to be a journey that'll take at least a two-month-long trip, but with Zhuding's speed, it only took two weeks. Of course, with such speed, the dangers for those that can't handle the pressure from sheer speed would suffocate, most would probably die.

Hence, Zhuding made a protective barrier for them and the four elders helped as well in stabilizing it.

As they arrived, the whole of the Nur Kingdom was immediately seen, It's between the empire and the demon race's territory, and although it's as majestic and massive as the Soaring Blaze Phoenix Empire, it's lacking one thing.

Mo Xie scanned its surroundings and frowned. The whole of the kingdom lacks its population. There are only about a thousand people in it, and mostly, they are the experts stationed by the empire to protect the Nur Kingdom from bandits and other people with bad intentions.

As soon as they arrived, one of the experts guarding the Nur Kingdom furrowed his brows, but seeing their robes, they immediately loosened as they bowed their heads respectfully: "So, it's the elders from the Imperial Sky sect that had arrived."

The guard captain did know that this is an A-grade mission, hence, it's natural for one of the top 24 elders of the sect to arrived, but the one leading this group isn't someone he could recognize.

Naturally, the one leading is the head of this expedition team.

Mo Xie nodded his head, from what he had known, this mission was of a lower grade, but due to its mysteriousness, it soared to an A-grade mission. And it's something that the Empire could ignore.

Ten million people had disappeared without a trace, the kingdom is completely intact without any sort of resistance.

He looked at the captain and asked: "Had you found anything in your stay here?" 

This event transpired seven months ago, two expeditions had already been dispatched, but there were no results whatsoever.

The guard captain shook his head: "We've tried whatever we could, but we couldn't see any anomalies happening other than its citizens completely vanishing without a trace."

After that, the guard captain said whatever he could.

He couldn't help but feel that something is amiss that's occurring here.

"Elder Mo, what should we do?" At this time, Wu Zeqing asked.

Mo Xie sighed hearing this, really, without any lead, it'll be pointless... for them. he looked at all of the disciples and elders behind him and spoke: "Spreading out would really be a pointless plan for us, if the experts guarding this place couldn't do much, much less us that had only just arrived."

Still, it's not like he couldn't rely on coincidence: "How about all of you can do whatever you like for now? And if you find something unusual, then, we can start from there."

All the elders looked at Mo Xie for a while, his words are actually... lackl.u.s.ter, but what can they do? They really can't find any trace, not even people leaving the city from the time the incident happened.

Hence, all of them nodded. The disciples immediately started to form groups and spread out throughout the city, but the four elders remained.

Mo Xie asked them: "Why are you staying?"

Ha Qiqi tilted her head in confusion and answered: "It's the duty of the supporting elders to always stay by the lead elder. It's always been like that."

Mo Xie shook his head: "We'll just gather tomorrow at the same time today, for now, we'll just make do with whatever we can find."

"That..." Ha Qiqi couldn't help but feel a little hesitant before nodded her head: "Okay, since you're the lead elder, we'll abide by your words."

But when all of them are about to enter the kingdom's walls, a few dozens, a hundred of figures coming from the northern-west.

They are riding a draconic beast, a stage higher than Zhuding, but although it's a draconic beast, it's a bath covered with metallic scales.

All of these figures have different kinds of horns, but all of them have something in common, they have completely black eyes.

Twin Peak Demon Group, they are the demon race.

Ha Qiqi and the elders frowned, although the demon race isn't their enemy, they aren't the human race's ally as well.

They could at least fight with their enemy, but for a neutral observer? Never.

Mo Xie looked at them: "Can you kindly go down from there? It's quite unpleasant you see."

Hearing him, the one leading them frowned, but she still conceded and let her draconic beast go down. 

Mo Xie seeing this person immediately remembered Ouyang Tou's words, the one his disciple fought was named Ashyvna, the first princess of the Twin Peak Demon Group.

But he smirked: "So I guess that lady before was a fake." He said so, because the two of them, although having the same cultivation stage, body, and face are almost completely different in his eyes.

"A fake?" Ashyvna of course heard that, Mo Xie didn't plan to hide it in any way.

Mo Xie smiled: "A person imitating your appearance." he then shifts his gaze at another person just right beside her: "But I guess... that person isn't really that unfamiliar to you."

Ashyvna hearing this and seeing where Mo Xie looked couldn't help but frown, of course, the person he's talking about, she already knows who she is, she immediately replied: "That is our business."

"Of course." Mo Xie replied with another smile.
