Chapter 86: Double awakening.

“Where will we go next?”

Yao Jun was sitting with his back against a tree, just watching the girl in his arms. Guo Luo had her entire body leaned against Yao Jun, the back of her head leaning on his shoulders as they just sat there, Yao Jun's arms around her waist.

Guo Luo was the one who spoke up, breaking the pleasant silence that the had been enjoying for a while. Yao Jun did not respond immediately, pondering in silence for a short while first.

“It would probably be best to return to Wan Yi, or to look for Yun Yantian. What do you think?”

Returning to Wan Yi would allow them to find more information about other Demonic beasts and maybe a way to return to his own continent. Finding Yun Yantian was something Yao Jun wanted to do because he was feeling rather uneasy about how Yun Yantian had just vanished after leaving the Yun clan.

“We should try to find Yun Yantian. If it was like Yang Yuhuan said, he has already been gone for a while.”

Guo Luo thought for a while before she responded. Finding more Demonic beasts to increase Yao Jun's strength was a good idea, but she could also tell that he was worried about Yun Yantian. In that case, it would be better to look for Yun Yantian. They could also kill all the good Demonic beasts they encountered while they were searching for him.

“Then let's do that.”

Yao Jun nodded his head, but he did not stand up to leave just yet. Little Gray was still on it's way back, so they could not use him to fly away, they would have to wait there for him to come back.

After waiting for around half an hour, a loud screech resounded over the forest. After hearing the screech, Yao Jun and Guo Luo stood up and headed over to the small cave.

The Giant Crows had fled right after Yao Jun awoke, and since Yao Jun had absorbed the 11 bodies into the empty space that he could access after acquiring power over darkness, there were no signs of the 11 people that had died here.

Little Gray landed outside the cave just as Yao Jun and Guo Luo arrived. When it saw him appear, Little Gray walked over to Yao Jun and rubbed it's head against him, showing how happy it was that he was fine.

“It's good that you are back Little Gray.”

Yao Jun rubbed the head of Little Gray as he spoke. There was a range limitation on him returning his Demonic beasts to the gate. Since Little Gray had flown so far away to hide, there was no way for him to return it to the gate before it returned and came close enough.

Yao Jun helped Guo Luo onto the back of Little Gray before he himself sat down on it's back and returned to hugging Guo Luo from behind. He was worried that it would be too hard for her to keep her body steady because of the wound on her hip.

After Yao Jun sat down, Little Gray immediately flapped it's wings and took off, soaring into the air. After it gained some height, it turned it's body and started flying towards the Liang continent. Since Yun Yantian had just left the Yun clan before he stopped contacting people, checking the Liang continent was the best option.

Yao Jun and Guo Luo were happily chatting and taking in the sights around them as they were flying. This only continued for a little over two hours before the both of them felt their God Gates tremble, a voice ringing out in their heads.

“The god of swords walks this earth once more, to cleave apart all evil.”

The ancient voice belonging to the Demon God's Gate rang out in Yao Jun's head, informing him of the birth of someone holding a God Gate, just like it did when Guo Luo's Illusion God's Gate awakened.

“Brother Yantian?”

After hearing the voice, Yao Jun wasn't sure if he should be more worried, or less worried. He knew that Yun Yantian was the holder of the Sword God's Gate, they already learned that from the Sword Empyrean Heng Jiang. But since his God Gate awakened, there was a good chance that he had just finished a large fight, or was still fighting one.

“The god of ghosts walks this earth once more, to lead all spirits to salvation.”

Before Yao Jun even finished his thoughts, the ancient voice rang out once more. This time it made Yao Jun's heart sink. Two God Gates awakening at the same time, Yao Jun refused to believe that it was a coincidence, something must have happened.

Yao Jun and Guo Luo both closed their eyes, focusing on their God Gates. After spending almost a minute in silence, the both of them turned towards the Yang continent at the same time.

The God Gates attracted each other. Especially in their moments of awakening, they could sense this attraction much more clearly. Much like how when Guo Luo awakened her God Gate, it created a reaction Yao Jun's own God Gate. Using this reaction, the both of them traced where the awakening was taking place. The answer they got was that both awakenings were taking place in the Yang continent, they were even taking place very close to each other.

Little Gray immediately turned it's body, changing course from the Liang continent and heading to the Yang continent. Yao Jun was a bit worried, since the massive Demonic beast he met after leaving Zhenya valley had also headed towards Yang continent.

“You better be okay brother Yantian.”
