"Eh, this we.."
Before he could answer, the other immediately interrupted him. "Senior brother, we didn't find that new disciple here, so we were interrogating them."
"Yes, yes," the other disciple nodded his head while his mind lit up. He then continued.
"They don't want to tell us about him. Maybe they have already sent him somewhere away."
"Is that so?" Daxton looked at his two junior brothers and what they said made sense.
He then looked at Isla and Hendrix who were on the ground and threatened them, "Tell me where is he? If you hide it anymore then we have to use some hard ways."
"We don't know." Isla tried to stand up and answer. But she got kicked in her face by one of the disciples.
"Junior Sister!"
Hendrix felt very powerless. If he was not injured, then he could have done something.
"If you can answer me, then I will set you free." Daxton smiled at Hendrix who was on the side.
He knew that even if he told them about Davion, they wouldn't let them free. So, he just shut his mouth.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Daxton became irritated, "So, we can only go for the hard way."
"Just beat them up. They would eventually answer it." Daxton ordered.
"Yes, Senior Brother."
One of them went for Hendrix while the other went for Isla. So, only the sound of violent beating was heard there.

On the other side, Thaddeus was battling with the three elders and Edgar. He had black smoke covering his hands. He was using it to either catch those sabers or block them. But he was finding it very difficult to do so. Because those elders were all at the middle stage of Qi refining just like him.
Not only that, they were from the same sect. Due to which they coordinated their moves with each other very well.
If the two of them were attacking from the front, then the other two would immediately find the blind spot and attack him from the back. As a result, he could barely move away from his place. He was trapped inside from all four directions and could only focus on defense.
Even though he was focusing on defense, he still got cut in many places. Especially there were many wounds on his back. Infront, there were only some gashes on his hands and waist.
"Damn, I will surely die if this goes on. I should target the weakest once and try to escape from this encirclement first."
He made up his mind and looked at Edgar fiercely.
"Dark Domain"
A field made of dark Qi immediately covered every one of them. Seeing this, they laughed.
"Haha, Thaddeus do you really think that you can escape with his move?"
"We know that this is just a spiritual art at the Qi refining level. Even though no sect possesses spiritual art at the Golden Core state in the outer regions, this move is still useless against us."
"We of the Blood Saber Sect do not use spiritual arts depending upon elements. So, our power won't get affected in any way. We simply burn our blood with Qi and use our purest power, our body."
After saying this, they immediately used their secret art.
"Blood Churning"
Blood-colored aura started gathering outside of their body. The Domain simply couldn't affect this in any way. Due to this red aura, they didn't get much affected by the dark vision. They firmly held their sabers which now glowed red and immediately charged towards Thaddeus.
"Did you guys think I am a fool?" Thaddeus pulled back his sleeves and yelled in a Devil Language.
"Devil Summoning: The Lion of Corrosion"
The tattoo of the lion on his hands started burning and a cloud of black smoke came out of it. The black smoke became larger and larger and a crack appeared from it.
"Thaddeus, it's been a long time since you last summoned me." A dangerous voice that sent chills came out from that crack.
Firstly, a huge black paw came outside from that crack. Then the other paw also came out from it. Slowly, the whole body came out and the crack closed itself.
Edgar and the elders looked at that creature with mouths wide open. It was a very big lion, at least the size of an elephant. It was fully black in color. Even the manes were black. The only thing colorful was the pair of pupils which were yellow. Due to the Dark Domain, it looked more imposing. Only the yellow eyes were seen clearly. Not only that, a very strong disgusting breath was coming out of it. If there was anyone in the Qi refining state here, then that person would have surely lost his mind.
"Damn, is this the Devil Commander known in the legends?" One of the elders asked as he had sweat on his forehead.
"Devil Commanders are supposed to have the battle power equal to a Golden Core Cultivator, aren't they?" Edgar was panicking. If he was alone here, then he would have surely run away.
"ROOOAAAAARRRR!!!!"
While they were discussing, the Lion let out a huge roar. Just this roar, pushed them back a few steps.
