30 We will not pursue this (2/2)

The thought passed through his head for a second. Was he mad? Had staying in this word so long made him go mad? He was now looking for more danger? He nodded to the man totake them away.

As the man picked up the dead clan head, Ah fude freed the elder from under the rubble and carried him on his back. It dawned on Ed that they were just leaving the salt bed without waiting for the period of time when the door opened from the salt bed to the demon lands. Now that he thought about it, they just came into the salt bed when they wished. Did this mean that most powers in the demon land had this ability?

The elder nodded to Ed once and they disappear. Ed nodded at the scene. So it is a teleportation key. Just like the old pervert said that he and other powers have keys to the Baju valley. They can just go and come as they like.

The elder and Ah Fude appeared in their clan, clean. Clean as in, both those dead and alive had no blood or open wound. This was a shame. If one saw them, they would not even know they had just escaped with their lives.

”First elder, who is....” a guard asked before a maid screamed. He knew she must have recognised the clan head.

”Inform the elders, the clan head is dead.” he said and the guard stood frozen.

”What are you waiting for?!” he bellowed, waking the guard from his trance. The guard rushed away and he made his way to the clan head's court yard. He entered a room and place the clan head down. Ah Fude did the same and placed the unconscious elder in one of the rooms. He returned to see the elder staring at the clan head's dead form solemnly.

On the other side of the clan, in the reception hall, celebrations were taking place. Inside sat an elderly man on he host seat and elders of the clan flanking his sides. The geniuses of the clan were present, so were guest from other clans who came to congratulate the clan ancestor for coming out of seclusion. He had successfully broken through to the peak of spirit awareness stage. This made him the second peak spirit awareness master in the entire city. This was an honour. Those who were at the same level as hey were before came to show god will and the other clan who had the other peak spirit awareness master came to congratulate them.

The party was in full swing when a guard barged in. Ancestor Ah frowned as he looked at the guard.

”Insolence! How dare you barge in?” he bellowed. If he was outside the demon realm, he would be able to release his new aura on this guard for the entire crowd to see. But he could not. The only thing that was beneficial about growing in cultivation in the demon lands, was the increase in physical strength.

The guard fell to the floor and knelt.

”Ancestor!” he cried, causing everyone to frown. The ancestor wondered if this guard had felt his now great presence to fall with just one look from him? He smiled, very please with the guard's performance.

”Clan head... clan head has died!” the guard cried an the hall paused.
