"Ah….ah….just how…." When attempting to speak, gurgles of blood streamed out of the captain's mouths, making it hard to hear what they were saying.

Both captains just couldn't understand anything.

How, in just two moves, they were beaten to a point where they couldn't even resist? This power is something only peak Nascent Formations has….

As their light gradually dimmed from their eyes, the captains blankly stared at Cain and Kali.

On their last moment of death, all they saw was Cain and Kali's vicious smirks that looked eerily similar to a demonic beast.

"This is simply the price to pay for being so arrogant." Kali's cold words were the last thing the captains would ever hear.

Then, in the next moment, Cain and Kali clenched down on their hearts, crushing them into a bloody mess.

The sibling duo then tore their hands right back out of their chests, causing streams of blood to splash on their face while the captain's corpses pathetically crashed to the ground.

Now that it's been quickly settled, Cain and Kali closed their Draconic Auras, receding back in their powers. They then swiped the blood off their faces, staining their already ruined Kong Clan clothes.

As Cain and Kali calmed down from their adrenaline high, they took a moment to stare down at their handiwork.

In just mere breaths of times, Cain and Kali so casually dealt with high ranks Nascent Formations cultivators.

And sibling duo felt a great sense of satisfaction. Not only over their newfound prowess but also because of a gratifying feeling of personal revenge.

These two may not have exactly been the ones who forced them back while in their compound, but it was close enough to count.

Cain and Kali then took the captain's spatial rings without any hesitation. As she stuffed the ring into her pocket, Kali suddenly said,

"Heh, that was almost too easy. I didn't think our prowess would be exaggerated this much."

Truthfully, though she knows they would inevitably win in the end, she didn't expect by this much of a landslide. That fight was basically akin to slaughtering helpless chickens.

"I suppose we can count a small boost of power because of Spirit Energy awakening. Moreover, we also combined it with Qi energy, so that also probably added on a layer of prowess."

Cain could only make accurate guesses at best. Even with his perception abilities, he could precisely tell the reason for their majorly enhanced prowess.

But like this, he is sure their adventure in Azure Lightning City will be mostly smooth sailing.

"You know I want to suggest we go back to the Liang Tribe for another little surprise visit and see what other treasure they have. But I also know there's no way for us to cross over and fight those Profound Souls guys, at least for now. So! Let's continue on and crush any captains who dare to get in our way." Kali's eyes had her signature ruthless glint.

And while far less brutal than her, Cain couldn't deny his blood pumping up at the prospect of crushing more opponents like the last two captains.

Without any more delay, Cain and Kali then continued trek down to Azure Lightning City.

….

Cain and Kali majorly stepped up to the pace during their travels.

Because of the possible threats, the Liang Tribe could pose to them, they didn't waste time slowly walking.

Along their path, the sibling duo met a few more Liang Tribe captains. Sometimes they even encountered captains with small squads. And with each encounter, the same predictable results happened.

No Liang Tribe captains or squad could withstand more than two blows from the sibling duo. The power disparity was too immense.

Because of a multitude of factors, Cain and Kali were practically unbeatable to most high-rank Nascent Formation Masters.

The sibling duo had their powerful Innate Dragon Bodies, heavily dense Nascent Qi that is dozens of times more powerful than even talented geniuses and control over Spirit Energy.

And this wasn't even mentioning their Divine level Draconinc Auras.

With a myriad of powerful factors, no eighth-level or seventh-level Nascent Formation masters could possibly hope to be their match.

Swift like the wind, Cain and Kali easily traveled through the Tribal Domain.

Then a couple of hours later, the sibling duo arrived at an entirely different part of the Misty Wilderness.

Upon arriving, Cain and Kali briefly stopped. Their eyes roamed over the scenery and their Spirit Senses extended far out.

Now, instead of endless grand trees and multicolor bushes, the scenery had a more village area look.

For hundreds of miles, there were randomly scattered buildings and other structures placed together. Each of these areas was actually quite large, stretching over dozens of miles of land.

And out from these areas, Cain and Kali finally spotted other people.

These people also didn't wear Liang Tribe or Kong Clan clothes. Instead, they all had a different assortment of clothes, and most showed off people's various types of bodies.

Comparing these people to Liang Tribe's men, they all looked genuinely normal. None of them had overt arrogant expressions, simply going about their day-to-day lives.

"Hmmm….hey. Wouldn't these be the other small powers we read about in the Kong Clan?" Kali curiously questioned.

Within her Spirit Sense, she didn't detect that many overly powerful cultivators. Only a few were even eighth-level Nascent Formation masters.

As Cain sensed around this area, he curled his brows a bit. "I suppose it is. There's also the lack of any vicious beasts in this area, so I'm assuming these small powers keep things pretty safe around here. In any case, we have no reason to bother with them; let's move on."

After one last look over of the populated area, Cain and Kali continued on the dirt road. Currently, it was only the sibling duo treading this path.

Other cultivators were straying about in the surrounding areas, venturing out to other buildings.

Soon enough, Cain and Kali neared a massive road gate.

The road gate was built with glorious-looking stones that showcased the City's massive wealth behind these walls.

Furthermore, Cain also spotted the art of Dragons and Pheonix running along the surface of the road gate. Thus, not only can one tell the wealth but also understand the symbol of power.

Even before coming close, average rouge cultivators would be struck with an enormous sense of disparity.

The City behind this road gate isn't where mediocre people could gather less they want to suffer a miserable fate.

Of course, Cain and Kali didn't care about the intimidating pressure emitted by the road gate in the slightest. They actually kept their sights on a single man guarding the entrance of the road gate.

The man's eyes were like a hawk as he stood tall and proud in front of the road gate. His expression was wholly indifferent, yet his gaze could send shivers down any peak Nascent Formation masters.

He wore glorious, high-quality black robes, showcasing his status and influence to all those who happened to glance at him.

The man was a simple guard, yet his presence emitted a natural pressure that could deter any average cultivator.

And as Cain and Kali calmly strolled up to him, the man's piercing eyes gazed at them from top to bottom.

Almost immediately, his eyebrows curled as he said, "Mn? Kong Clan people? What is it that you require?"

Cain and Kali stopped just several feet from the guard. Neither of them was put off by the guard's subtle domineering pressure.

The confidence within them wasn't anything fake or boastful. On the contrary, it was engraved into their bones and blood to never back down in front of any threat.

Even though the guard was hundreds of times stronger, Cain and Kali were regarded as just another mortal cultivator.

Keeping his tone unwavering and clear, Cain simply said, "We're not exactly from the Kong Clan. We were simply extra helpers for them in their war. But we soon defector from them and want to go into the City."

"I see…."

The guard had a slight glint within his eyes. The temperament of these two youths was indeed a step above most. Most wouldn't even be able to look at him clearly in the air.

Yet, these two stood as proud as him.

"In any case, you need to pay 100 white crystal beads each for entrance in the city." The man explained to them after a moment of thinking.

Hearing this, Cain and Kali briefly paused.

If they were a set of average cultivators, then this price simply would be highway robbery!

Much less than 100, just gaining ten White Crystal beads would be a huge fortune for any average Nascent Formation cultivator.

'Hm, there seems to be a vast difference between the City and the Tribal Domain. Hell, I can't even perceive this guard's cultivation. I have a faint feeling he's probably above and far higher than the Profound Soul realm.'

Cain was now extra thankful for all those Liang Tribe captains they killed. If they didn't take those spatial rings, things undoubtedly would've got troublesome if they had to rely on their resources from their Imperial home.

Not wanting to delay any longer, Cain swiftly ignited his spatial ring and took a sack with 200 white crystal beads. Cain then wordlessly tossed over the sack.

The guard did a prompt inspection with his Spirit Sense and nodded a moment later. He then stepped out of the way, allowing the sibling duo to see a glorious site ahead.

Not even sparing one glance at the guard, Cain and Kali promptly walked right into Azure Lightning City.

This moment marks the next step in their journey far from home.
