In the Wild Northern Forest, three girls were panting while kneeling on the ground. The dark tentacles that bound them had already set them free. As for that man, he had already left earlier without saying anything.
"Senior Sister, are you ok?"
"Did he do something to you?"
"Do you feel anything different?" Mia and Amelia looked quite worried as that man left after touching their Senior Sister for a few seconds. Who knows if that man did something wrong to her body in that interval?
"Yes, I'm fine. I don't think he did anything to me." Leyla wiped her tears and immediately used her Qi to check her body. Indeed, she didn't find anything unusual.
She then stood up and said, "Let's leave. Our task is finished here."
"Then what about.." Mia was about to say something when Amelia smacked her head from behind and interrupted, "Yes, we didn't find anything unusual here and the crack had already closed. So, it's useless to stay here any longer."
Mia understood what she meant and continued, "Yes, yes. Our task is done here. We should leave."
She knew that her Senior Sister didn't want to remember that shameful event from earlier. So, they had to act innocent.
Leyla was about to take out her flying artifact from her ring when she noticed that the restriction she had set inside it had been broken. Due to the earlier incident, she hadn't detected it.
"Don't tell me?" She looked inside it and found that everything was there.
"Strange…" she murmured.

In an old-looking courtyard, a brawny middle-aged man was looking at the five people who were levitating in the sky with worry. Among them, three were old men and two were old women. These old men were wearing red-colored robes and had red pupils while these old women were wearing blue-colored robes and had blue pupils. From this, one could say that they belonged to two different factions.
"Reginald, do you still want to protect that monster?" One of the old men asked.
"Elder Brother Reuben, how can you say that to your own nephew?" Reginald's hands were already shaking with anger.
"Humph, did you think that we would even consider that creature as one of us? You have shamed our tribe." Reuban said.
"Brother, but he is my child." Reginald was still trying to reason with him.
"Shut up!" The old woman at the side yelled.
"Don't you know that you have committed a huge sin? How dare you seduce and take away my daughter? Not only that, you even had offspring with her. Just this crime is enough for you to go to hell." The old woman was furious.
"I…" Reginald didn't know what to say as it was indeed forbidden to have intercourse with someone from the other tribe.
"Mom, since we have committed a sin, then just punish us. But please leave our child alone. He is innocent." A beautiful woman came out from behind Reginald while carrying a twin-headed dragon in her hands.
"Unfilial child, I thought that you had already escaped." The old woman looked at her with disappointment. As for that twin-headed dragon, she didn't even bother to glance at it because it looked really disgusting.
"Sabrina, why are you here?" Reginald sighed as he felt really emotional.
"We can't always hide like this as we have to face the reality someday." She put her right hand on his cheek and smiled.
He felt somewhat better after hearing it. He then looked at his child and stroked both of his heads.
Looking at this lovey-dovey family, Reuban got annoyed. So, he asked again, "Do you still want to protect this monster?"
Reginald looked at him and said, "Is that even a question to ask?"
The moment he said this, the temperature of the surroundings started to increase and a dangerous aura started coming out from Reuban. Seeing this, he immediately released his aura to protect Sabrina and his child.
"Mom, please stop this. He is your grandchild." Sabrina fell on her knees and begged for help. She knew that only her mother could help her. She didn't want a battle to happen here.
"Leave that child and come with us. I can only protect you." The old woman could only come up with this decision after seeing her daughter in this state.
"Mom..." Sabrina wanted to continue but a huge pressure fell upon her.
"Take the child and run. I will hold them here." She heard a calm voice coming from her side.
"But.."
"No buts. Just leave. The battle looks imminent. I've tried every possible way to reason with them. But it's useless. It looks like they are actually not for our child but rather for me." Reginald smiled and looked at them for a last. Then he rushed to the sky while slowly transforming.
"BOOOM" The world changed colors that day and only a sea of fire could be seen.

"RROOAARR"
The twin-headed dragon who had passed out suddenly woke up and roared in anguish.
"So, you've finally woken up."
