When Henry heard these words, he froze in shock. 3000 people looking for him was not a matter to scoff off 5 of them were even beyond his limits.
"So I must change my plans slightly, uh" Henry muttered with a sigh.
He looked at the 5 cultivators that were in front of him, he fell in deep thought on what to do with them.
He asked them some questions but they didn't know. The reasons that they said were very believable.
He had asked about the location of some of the bases that have a spiritual energy absorber but they don't know.
"Hmm, they are just canon folders so they shouldn't know about such highly confidential things.
They are useless for me currently, keeping them alive will increase the danger so I should just kill them" He muttered to himself as he revealed a cold smile on his face.
When the cultivators looked at his cold smile, their faces immediately turned pale because they knew the meaning of such smiles.
One of them roared.
"He is planning on killing us my comrades, Get up and get out of here." One of them roared.
They are the veterans of war. They have seen and survived countless such things. Due to Luck, they have survived countless such things.
However, one thing was common everyone would have such a cold smile after they had gotten what they needed from him.
This cold smile means he is going to get killed if he doesn't do anything.
Everyone got up with great difficulty and ran in different directions, hoping that this way, at least one of them would survive.
"So you think on my watch, you can get out of here alive. You are daydreaming" Henry added as he took out the ripping sword from his waist.
Immediately, a calming aura calmed from the sword, calming down his mind. He focused on killing them.
His focus and Calmness were on a whole new level after receiving the blessings. His vision immediately started to change.
He was soon surrounded by an endless ocean and waves were splashing against his feet rapidly.
He calmed down and saw a string connecting all of the five cultivators. They had hundreds of golden spots on their body.
"Let me kill them," Henry muttered.
He quickly charged toward strictly following the path the string created. Soon he appeared in front of a cultivator, the other two were within his reach.
He swung his sword 360 degrees, and the heads of three of them fell to the ground. A fountain of blood was formed in the sky.
He ignored it, quickly charging toward the next target. When his sword was just one cm away from severing his neck.
A projectile was sent flying towards Henry's sword from the north direction. The projectile was moving so fast that even He couldn't react quickly enough.
"What is that?" He muttered to himself as he looked at North.
Soon the projectile hit Henry's blade, it produced a thunderous sound that was loud enough to cause Henry's ears to bleed.
"AHAHAAHAHAH" Henry roared in pain as he subconsciously wanted to hold both of his ears.
But he didn't, he let go of the cultivator which allowed him to safely escape.
"Who threw this projectile, there is someone strong hidden here. Is it the commanders?
How did they find me so quickly??" Henry blinked his eyes in disbelief.
The other cultivator was equally shocked but he escaped as fast as he could since saving his life is currently his top priority.
"You two get out here, I will take care of him" A mysterious yet powerful voice resounded through the entire place.
When Henry heard that voice, he immediately knew that he had been found and his life was currently in danger.
"Damn it, why can't I go to the city peacefully. Regardless, it's no use whining now. I must escape while preserving both my and Lucy's life.
If he is the commander then I won't have any chance of winning. I must escape" He muttered under his breath as he tightened the grip on his sword.
A magic circle also appeared around him and a dragon quickly came out from the magic circle.
Two dragons circle him as they wait for Henry's orders. The magic circle remained on the ground; they didn't disappear immediately.
"Let me create a magic circle around Lucy, just in case" He muttered.
Just as he was about to create another magic circle bear Lucy. The voice from deep in the forest resounded through his ears.
"You don't have to worry about the safety of the little girl. I won't hurt her even a bit. Also, I promise to not request reinforcements, I just want to fight you fairly" The voice resounded through his ears.
He fell into deep thought for the next few seconds and after a while of thinking later, he didn't see any disadvantages and said.
"Ok," He replied almost immediately.
He looked over and then he raised his hands and signaled someone to stay put. He signaled to Lucy.
"No matter what, do not come out," Henry said in a gentle and soft voice.
She nodded her head in response.
She is hiding in the bushes, since Henry didn't know the strength of his enemies, he told her to hide in the bushes and wait.
He destroyed the magic circle near Lucy and him but he has brought spiritual energy to the tip of his fingers, ready to create another magic circle at the slightest sign of danger.
The dragons are closely circling him awaiting his orders.
"We should battle somewhere far from here, I don't want her to get injured" He added.
He didn't reply immediately but very soon a figure could be seen walking towards him, with each second getting closer to him.
The figure soon became visible, he was wearing a red robe with a sword imprinted on it. He had a messy hairstyle, he was fairly tall. He had a pale complexion. His eyes were purple.
There was a sword kept on his waist. He had a long and deep scar on his face, there was more than one scar. There were three scars on his face,
"Of course, I shall let you decide this before you die." He said with a cold smile on his face.
He didn't react to his questions and said.
"Follow me," Henry said coldly while tightening the grip on his sword so that he wouldn't enter the ocean of death accidentally.
With that, Henry charged in random directions. The person nodded and followed him.
Lucy saw everything from the base, she clenched her two little fists together and said.
"Be safe," Lucy muttered under her breath.
A few minutes later, deep within the forest.
The figure all of a sudden stopped moving. This caused Henry to frown and then he asked.
"What's wrong?? Why aren't you following me anymore??" Henry asked him
He didn't reply, all of a sudden dozens of shining spots appeared all over his body. Soon dozens of ball-shaped objects were created. These objects are those projectiles.
This caused Henry to narrow his eyes in disbelief.
"Damn, he has already started to prepare for attacking, Dragons go and attack him to buy me more time to prepare" He roared.
Soon the two dragons charged towards the figure at an incredible speed.
Dozens of projectiles were directed towards the two dragons. When the projectile collided with the dragon, it formed small holes in the dragons.
However, the dragons ignored it and the holes were rapidly repairing themselves.
Seeing this, the cultivator didn't panic.
"Do you seriously think that these two dragons will be enough to defeat me?" The cultivator roared as more projectiles were sent flying towards the dragons.
Henry didn't reply instead, he kept uniquely channeling his mana. Soon, more than 4 magic circles were formed on the ground. The outline of the magic circle was letting out a blue glow.
Signaling that the magic circle was completed.
"Ok done, now I just have to enter the Ocean of Death" Henry muttered under his breath.
All of a sudden, a thunderous explosion resounded not far away from here. Henry turned his head to look at the source of the direction.
What he saw shocked him beyond words.
"What is this?????" Henry fell to the ground as an incredible amount of pressure was formed on his body.
