Chapter 33: Hell breaks loose
Xi's statement meant that, “Handler Old Timer” was his Grandfather. He had a very hard time believing that. It is true that he never saw him in action but to say he was one of the most respectable figures in the Realm and also his Grandfather, what did that mean. It meant that, even though they were family and he didn't let him die, he left him to fend for himself.
He remembered one extremely painful period in time, when he was caught during a mission and was tortured for 3 months. He only got out thanks to another Dragoncross member getting the same mission as he did and luckily found him during the mission. When he thought about that, he felt indescribable rage building up inside him. The more enraged he got, the clearer a voice was inside his head. The voice mocked him and told him to kill everyone, the more he listened, the more the voices started influencing him.
Xi felt the enrage was justified but soon noticed that something was wrong. The look in Nalser's eye became more muddled and he suddenly started talking in an unknown language. Nalser grabbed his head between his hands and muttered, “Hahahaha, pole olemas kedagi keda saab usaldada, ainult ise ennast saan usaldada.” Hearing this Xi was alarmed, he had never heard the language and the look in Nalser's eye grew more and more savage.
Xi stood up and tried to close in to him, so he could inspect what is causing this, however, before he could even get close to him, he was knocked back. A black chain materialized out of nowhere and smacked Xi across the courtyard. Xi, who was startled by it, looked at Nalser in confusion, he had never seen anything like that. He opened his mouth to say something but before he could, there was a crack in space.
Seeing this, Xi-s face grew alarmed and he tried to get up but he found that his cultivation base was sealed and he himself, was paralyzed. He could only watch as the black chains wrapped around Nalser and dragged him to the space crack. When the crack closed, he could finally move himself again, the first thing was to look around. The moment he stood up, 6 people in black ninja garb appeared in a circle around Xi. Everyone of their eyes was cold as they asked, “What happened? We felt the fluctuations and when we came to investigate, there was a very powerful barrier surrounding this place, that prevented us from getting in.”
Xi was still dazed as he himself had no idea what had happened. He collected his thoughts for a second and said in an authoritive tone, “You guys look after the people inside the house, I need to go and speak with the Asura Flame Holders from your Clan.” Before they could even answer anything, Xi had torn a rip in space and had flown straight into it.
Everyone present looked at each other in confusion, they had no idea what had happened but it seems it was something very serious. They decided to do as Xi told them and guard the mother daughter pair inside the house.

When Xi stepped out of the tunnel between different worlds, he appeared on a floating island. The Island had only one thing: A theater that looked like it was build by ancient Greece. As he hurriedly walked towards the stage, where there stood a pedestal with an orb, his head was muddled.
When he reached the pedestal, he hurriedly inserted Qi into the orb. The moment he did, an archaic voice rang out in the head of every Asura Flame Holder, “Fang Xi has called for the Gathering of Asura.” As the voice died out, you could already see numerous space cracks forming all around. From the crack all kinds people walked out, who didn't seem to have anything in common, however, they were all Asura Flame Holders.
When the last one had arrived, one of them asked, “Xi, what is so urgent that you had to call for a Gathering without any prior notice?” Usually, there was a year or month notice prior to the Gathering so everyone could attend in peace, this time however, it had been very abrupt. Xi just gathered his breath and said, “Well, let me explain...” Then he told everyone present that he had met Nalser and was teaching him how to control the Flame.
Just as he was getting to the reason he called a Gathering, one of the Nura Clans Asura Flame Holders said, “So, he is our clansmen and we thank you for taking care of him but don't tell me you called such a sudden Gathering just to say that?” Xi glared at him for a second and then said, “No, that's not why I did it. The reason is this...”
Stolen novel; please report.
And then he told what had happened, Nalser punching him and them talking about his origin. However at one point something weird had happened and then he talked about the chains and how he had been dragged to the space crack. When everyone present heard, what had happened, they all grew serious.
This wasn't just a relative of an Asura Flame getting kidnapped but the person in question was also an Asura Flame Holder. When they heard that Xi was paralyzed and his cultivation base sealed just by touching the chain, they felt danger. There were only a few people who actually dared to pick a fight with them but none of them had a treasure or an ability like that, that's what left them worried.
Even though all of them were people who could shake the realm with their power, it mattered nothing in front of those chains. This also posed a very serious threat to everyone present, not to mention that they had no place to attack to eradicate this threat. However, the ones who had the most unsightly faces, were the four Asura Flame Holders from the Nura Clan. Their own clansmen had been taken right under their noses.
They knew very well that there were people, who were supposed to protect Nalser. One of them asked in a cold voice, “What happened to twerps who were supposed to protect him?” Xi looked at them and sighed, “They said, they felt immense Qi fluctuations in the are and when they came closer to investigate, they ran head first into an extremely strong barrier that left them outside.”
Hearing this, everyone's faces dropped, they knew Nalser's circumstances with the clan very well and also knew that those four old geezer's wouldn't assign some random chumps to his protection detail.
The one who is involved this time is a very powerful expert. As they started discussing what they were going to do and how to get Nalser back, Nalser however was just drifting along the stars.

As Nalser opened his eyes, he felt an immense headache. He remembered what Xi had told him and felt rage building up inside him again but right at that moment a voice sounded out from next to him, “Calm yourself little one. Inside you is sealed a very strong demon. The more enraged you get, the more he can influence you.”
In a hurry, Nalser looked at his side and noticed a man who looked a little over 20, sitting cross legged next to the luxurious bed he was sitting on. He had blue eyes, blonde hair(like Nalser used to have), and a built body. He was also wearing the same clothes as Nalser was. As he looked around, he noticed that this place was very spacious but when he looked outside the window, he noticed that the sky was completely white.
This left him speechless as he couldn't make heads or tails of the situation. He looked at the man and asked in a cold voice, “Who are you and where is this?” The old man just smiled and stood up. He didn't say anything but signaled Nalser to follow him. Timidly, Nalser followed him through a very old looking Japanese style mansion. As they passed the courtyard, they exited the compound.
As they kept walking, Nalser sized up the place but he couldn't understand why it felt so familiar to him. The old man didn't say anything either as they walked down the road to a huge, ominous tower. Nalser felt dread building up inside him as he just looked at the tower, however the old man pushed the door open and entered. Nalser cautiously followed him inside and was immediately flabgastered.
The room was completely empty except for a sinister looking Devil chained to the ground in the middle of the room. Nalser was completely confused as he muttered, “What the Hell is going on, what is this? Where is this place, who are you?”
When the man heard that, he smiled to Nalser and said, “This place is a special region inside your Dantian, it took a lot of effort to bring your whole body here before you accidentally set this guy free.” Nalser took in every word he said and for some reason it made sense but his own reasoning told him, it is impossible.
Just before he could ask, who the Hell that man was, he answered, “My name is Nalser Vi Dragoncross and I am you.”
