Keir after some thought finally decided to join the Bunshin faction in his mind when a familiar voice rang in his head and said.
"Join the Hunlun faction."
Abel spoke.
Without another thought, Keir decided according to the orders of Abel.
After a few five figures came and stood beside each other with a large distance between them while being in front of the huge crowd. A man climbed onto the high ground behind the five people and started speaking.
"These are the representative of the five factions that pillar the red leaf sect. From the right side, we have the representative of the Tao faction the brain of the sect."
The man said as he pointed to the right-most person.
The man wore cloud blue garments with loose sleeves and his arms folded. He had silky black hair, he wore a calm expression along with a soft and airy vibe around him.
A few dozens of people of various ages but in similar clothes to the man in blue walked toward him and crowded behind him.
"Then we have the Duanzu faction the supplier of the sect."
The man pointed towards a big fat man with a bushed-up beard. The man had a bristly face and a rough air around him.
People who wore heavy and fancy armor walked toward him and made another group behind him.
"Next is the Bunshin faction, the strength of our sect."
This time the man pointed towards a tall guy dressed in red with his arms folded. He wore a fierce expression along with a brawny physique
Jin put his hand on Keir's shoulder and nodded at him. Keir nodded back at him with a smile as Jin joined the group of the Bushin faction.
They both knew it was time for them to go separate ways, they parted ways with a heavy heart but also a bubbling feeling inside their chest
Tall and burly men walked towards him and grouped behind him
"Then we have the Shensi faction the curious explorers of the sect."
The pointed toward the third person.
It was a woman who was well dressed in white clothes and had a cool expression with a calm air surrounding her.
This the people who entered this faction, the majority were women.
"And finally.....the Hunlun faction."
The man concluded without even pointing at them as if with a sense of loath towards them.
Keir and half a dozen more walked towards a man dressed in black and white, the man had silver-like hair and an expressionless face along with a mysterious yet ominous air around him but surprisingly to Keir that was the only person in the whole crowd from whom Keir didn't feel the threatening sensation.
Without any other event, the groups started moving.
The first group to leave was the tao faction, they boarded carriages that looked sturdy and light with minimum decoration. Each carriage was being pulled by two lightly armored horses.
Then the Duanzu faction started moving in a different direction.
The Duanzu faction carriages were larger than the other and almost ten people boarded in one carriage which was pulled by four heavily armored horses each. (2-4 people fit in an ordinary carriage.)
The reason for the abnormal size in their carriage
The fact that the Duanzu faction was referred to as the "supplier of the sect" would explain the abnormal size of their carriages.
Then the group of the Bunshin faction boarded a pretty ordinary-looking carriage but what was odd was the fact that it was pulled by one single horse each, is what seemed at the first glance but if looked closer, the massive frame and the rippling muscles were visible.
Again, the Bunshin faction was referred to as the "strength of the sect" thus they would naturally select or make stronger ones.
And now it was finally time for the Kunlun faction to start moving.
Keir and his group are led by the representative of the faction, the man in black garments.
The man led the group to a place where there were a couple of shabby carriages. The carriages' wood had gone almost black and the leather that covered the upper frame of the carriage was now a dark sap-ish green. Large pieces of molds could be on the edges of the carriage. The horses seemed almost fine if it wasn't for scars on their skin.
The man turned towards the group and looked at each of them with a good glare.
Everyone seemed nervous but Keir seemed fine because he didn't feel that disturbing aura that he felt out of that crowd.
"Before we start moving I would like to introduce myself, I am Zoan Jevoni, and those who can drive a wagon or carriage move to the front, we don't have any wagoners."
Zoan said as he folded his arms and waited.
There were a few, two or three of them including Keir.
"I can only ride a horse."
Keir said to Zoan.
"Doesn't matter, move forward 'cause it won't be hard to teach you how to handle horses if you can already ride one. Sit beside one of them and learn whilst the other get on board we are leaving."
As he commanded the wagoners started to board the front of the carriages while the rest started to hop inside them.
Zoan went ahead and started moving the front carriage as the others followed.
Keir was the third carriage from behind which was also the last.
The familiar klit-klat noise rang in Keir's ears. The same noise that he slept on the day he left his home.
The clouds had taken a gray shade as the sun hid between those dull clouds.
The carriages of the Hunlun faction continued to move in a path of soil and stones in a vast green land.
Before even an hour had passed, it started to rain.
The soil had taken a red color and the showering noise of the rain buzzed in the ears of the people inside the carriages.
Everything was very calm and leisurely for the people in the carriages except for Keir.
Keir felt slightly uneasy during times, he felt something was coming towards them or more like they were heading toward something. Something that would give him a sudden surge of fear, though it was very vague he could still consciously feel that sensation moving from his mind to his back.
A day had passed while the rainy weather hadn't yet finished as it would suddenly rain from time to time without revealing the sun.
As they moved the sense of a sudden surge of fear spread out to all the people.
Inside Keir's carriage, there were two adult men and two boys including Keir.
He would notice the men waking up in the middle of the night with a shocked or frightful expression and then he realized it was not only him. Even when one of the adults he would sit beside in the front to learn to control the horses, he would sense a sudden fear entering them and leaving them.
And just like that, another day passed.
Two days had passed after he parted ways with Jin.
