Chapter 814 - The Dark Faes" Escape
"Please, Lord Realm Spirit! You have to understand that as the leader of a declined demon clan, each and every one of my choices will decide whether my clan continues to exist or fade from history, Lord Realm Spirit!"
"Because of my heavy responsibilities, I have to be prudent in order to make the right choices for my clan"s survival!" Nyfarella explained.
"But even if I want to lead my clan members to the south sh.o.r.e, we can"t leave without the Nine Great Clan"s permission; the supervising demon will definitely stop us and heavily punish us for trying to leave, Lord Realm Spirit."
She implored for the realm spirit"s understanding.
Nevertheless, Tak-si was only trying to pressure the Dark Fae Clan"s leader into heading south and had no intentions of claiming her life.
One less dark fae means one less wisp of True Grandmist Energy.
"You don"t need to worry about this. So long as you gather your clan members to leave, I will open the way for you; no demon will be able to stop you from leaving," Tak-si a.s.sured after retracting his spiritual pressure.
"Also, you don"t need to explain anything to them; I already have the same conversation with each and every one of them. They are more or less convinced with a few words while you were the last to be."
"I understand, Lord Realm Spirit. I will gather them now," Nyfarella said while hiding the shock and surprise in her heart.
She didn"t expect the realm spirit to be capable of conversing many dark faes simultaneously; it truly seemed omniscient and omnipresent.
The realization gave her the confidence needed to put some trust in its words.
"Did Lord Realm Spirit everything about our opportunity in the south?" Nyfarella questioned the closest clan member.
"Yes, Lord Nyfarella," the dark fae affirmed before asking, "What are your orders, Clan Leader?"
After getting the last bit of confirmation she needed, Nyfarella took in a deep breath before her eyes glinted with determination.
"All members of my Dark Fae Clan, gather to me! We are leaving this sh*thole and heading south!" she roared at the top of her lungs.
"Yes, Lord Nyfarella!" the dark faes answered excitedly.
They were just waiting for those exact words!
As the sixty-one dark faes quickly gathered towards Nyfarella, the supervising evil eye demon, Lord Razlar, was attracted by the commotion.
"Chief Nyfarella! What are you planning to do?! Have your members return to their posts to work! Have I been too lenient, so you think you can defy my will now?!" Razlar thundered.
However, his intimidating words have little effect on Nyfarella.
"F*ck your will! My Dark Fae Clan will no longer listen to your orders, you sh*tty three-eye freak! You can take your will and shove it up your a.s.s for all I care!"
Nyfarella gave him the middle finger while releasing all her pent-up grievance and frustration in an emotional outburst.
"Dark Fae Clan, follow me!"
"Yes, my Lord Nyfarella!"
After the dark faes answered, Nyfarella quickly led them away towards the south sh.o.r.e, under the supervising demons" dumbfounded and stiffened expression.
The Dark Fae Clan had already reached the point of no return.
Whether they make or break, live or die, they don"t need to keep cowering in front of the supervising demon.
After being stunned by Nyfarella"s defiant and disrespectful att.i.tude for a moment, Lord Razlar exploded furiously.
"All demons, listen up! I want the Dark Fae Clan captured, dead or alive!" Lord Razlar roared.
He did not care if they had to wipe out the entire Dark Fae Clan; there was use keeping the dark faes alive if they could not follow orders obediently.
They would be more useful as cultivation resources after their deaths!
"To think that such a low-ranking clan would show such defiance in my jurisdiction! How can I tolerate such humiliation and embarra.s.sment?! I have to skin them and torture their souls!"
Hundreds of demons immediately chased after Nyfarella and her clan members after hearing the supervisor"s furious order, loudly and clearly.
The Dark Fae Clan"s position was far from the outer perimeters and was quickly encircled by hundreds of demons from various low-ranking demon clans.
"We"ve been surrounded, Lord Nyfarella!" a dark fae shouted while flying beside her clan leader.
"No, we"re not! Most demons can"t fly like we do! Increase your alt.i.tude; we"ll fly higher!" Nyfarella orders her clan members.
"But…!" the dark faes hesitated, but they still followed their clan leader.
"I understand your concerns! I am well aware that flying high will make us open targets for the demons" projectiles! However, Lord Realm Spirit promised to cover us!"
As Nyfarella spoke, the demons in the Bone Sea were already taking aims with spears, lances, and arrows.
The dark faes could all feel the threat from below.
Despite having the advantage of high alt.i.tude, they were still among the weakest of all the demon clans; it would be difficult for them to evade the demons" heavy fire.
Just as the dark faes" danger senses. .h.i.t their peaks, making them think they were goners, a wave of spiritual pressure descended on the numerous Lesser Demons below and froze all their movements.
The Lesser Demons had no defense or resistance against such uncommon and abrupt spiritual attacks.
They could only helplessly watch the dark faes fly away.
"What the h.e.l.l are you all doing, you useless insects?! Hurry up and shoot them down! Kill those defiant rebels!" Lord Razlar thundered.
However, the demons could not respond.
The realm spirit"s spiritual pressure had paralyzed even their thoughts, putting their entire being into stasis.
In fact, they do not even know they were attacked by the spiritual pressure; it was as if time had stopped for them.
However, the realm spirit couldn"t keep such a large scale for long before it was forced to withdraw its spiritual pressure.
Even so, it bought just enough time for the dark faes to escape the Lesser Demons" firing range.
"T-the demons didn"t fire at us, Lord Nyfarella!" a dark fae exclaimed with joy and pleasant surprise, having escaped the jaws of death.
"Mm, it must be Lord Realm Spirit"s doing," Nyfarella replied with bright eyes.
