Sure enough, Hulibe and Mo noticed someone else approaching. But to their surprise, it was none other than Uriu and the Divine Path Sect disciples! After they got close, Uriu immediately started to tell them what happened.

Krune heard that and said.

”So you guys also found an Assassin. It seems like they are here for Feifei, and we are the witnesses that they need to get rid of too.”

If it was only Feifei, a few of them might have separated from her. But so far, it was evident that they should also be eliminated to prevent any clues of those Assassins to spread. That meant that just leaving Feifei behind will make them no good. Instead, it will reduce their combat power.

Juniu and the other disciples of the Divine Path Sect then gathered around Krune. They know that Krune is the strongest from their Sect at the moment, and he was someone selected by the Sect Master. In their eyes, it would be safer to follow Krune instead. Krune didn't mind it this time, he needed more strength, after all.

But there was also another thing. With Krune's group numbers, Wang Mo's group had no right to say that Krune should follow their order while using the battle formation.

Krune then turned to Wang Mo and asked.

”Can I pass them the battle formation?”

Wang Mo was taken aback since he thought that Krune would use this chance to ask for the central position in it, but he just asked for the combat formation instead.

”Sure.”

He then sent the combat formation to Juniu and the others. But when they noticed that the one who was controlling it wasn't Krune, they got puzzled.

It was then that Krune said.

”Alright, I will make a new group with them while you guys make a group yourselves. We don't know how many enemies are there, but we can tell that it is at least three at the moment. The Rasie Clan seems to have their own way of dealing with one of them. So we need to be able to do something about the other two. The best way is to use two combat formations at the same time.”

Only now did Wang Mo understand the reason. But he had to admit that Krune is right. It's just that after what Krune provided to their formation during that little training time, he felt like it was an enormous loss to have Krune leaving it.

”Very well.”

Krune nodded and then told Feifei with a Divine Sense message.

”It's better for you to stay with them too. Only with your Improved Destiny Core can they have a chance against those guys. I will use my group to try to get rid of one of them as fast as possible.”

Feifei nodded and didn't move away from Wang Mo's group. That made them sigh in relief. If she wasn't going with Krune now, then it meant that what they had before was really just a deal, and now it was over. So in their eyes, Feifei had chosen to stay with them.

Uriu, who hadn't said anything so far, came close to Krune.

He didn't say it, but another reason was that he wanted to avenge his friends from the Spiritas Kingdom too.

Krune nodded and also passed to him that combat formation. They had little time to practice it, but with Krune's understanding and pointers, they still took a basic grasp in the following time.

While all that was happening, they were also moving along with the barrier. That was the only reason why the Assassin leader hasn't caught up to them yet since they are moving in the same direction.

Also, they wanted to see how they would enter this light barrier. After all, that was supposed to be the condition to activate the teleport runestone formation and leave this place.

Suddenly, Krune heard Light Spirit's voice.

”A Divine Sense passed through you just now, it seems like they had come. This time, it isn't only one, but two instead.”

Krune was surprised.

”Only two, not three?”

Light Spirit focused a bit and then confirmed.

”Yes, only two.”

Krune then asked everyone to stop.

”They are here, I just felt their Divine Sense pass through us, and there is two of them now.”

Everyone looked at Krune, surprised. None of them had felt anything, but Krune, at the 4th Stage of the Core Formation Realm, could feel those Divine Soul Realm Divine Senses. That was ridiculous in their eyes.

Light Spirit then started to give reports on their movements according to the Divine Sense.

”It seems like those two stopped as well. They are just observing us. They noticed that we already detected their presence, so they are probably biding their time to wait for their companions.”

Hulibe Acrol narrowed his eyes. They don't know if three is the total number or if there are even more of them.

”We should take this chance to attack. If even more of them appear later, we might not be able to deal with them.”

Krune and everyone else nodded, so they immediately took action.

On the other side, the Yano and Lanis noticed that their target stopped and are now moving in their direction. Yano felt surprised and then snorted.

”Do they think that they can deal with the two of us together? I wish to see how they are going to do that.”
