To this, the jade phoenix alliance young miss paused slightly, then raised a brow, “You really don’t seem to hold any in your eyes,” she said.
“At least give other powers face sometimes,” she said and Nti Anem sighed. These people did not seem to understand Ed. It was not that he did not want to give them face or did not care, he did not feel as though he was of this world. His lack of interest to participate and need to get to his goal faster to leave has cooled whatever heat existed in the hot-blooded prince.
“The girl could not keep up. No one here is a child that needs to be taken care of so step back,” Nti Anem said and the Ku clansmen’s faces only got worse. That was true. To cause trouble for them like this would mean they were looking down on their lady from the start and wanted these two to watch out for her. Everyone that came knew of the risk.
“True,” Ku Nam said with a nod, “Nothing will happen to her I hear training is good enough,”
To this, Nti Anem smiled lightly. This boy, though. That Ku Jian girl is the daughter of the clan chief, yet this boy seemed to be the heir even though there was no normal announcement. Nti Anem could not care about other people right now, as Ed had already reminded him it was time they left.
“Where is the dead centre?” Ed asked Nti Anem. Only then did those around notice that the energy manipulator was flicking his fingers. They seemed to almost tick back and forth.
“Fifty metres forward,” Nti Anem answered and Ed disappeared from his spot to the shock of those around Nti Anem followed the next second.
“Center?” someone asked.

“They are on the move,” someone said and many rushed after them.
“These reckless people. Do they know that the highway is suspended over the tomb? They want to jump directly into the tomb?” the Phoenix alliance young miss said.
“Oh? That means he would be the first to reach the treasures inside,” Ku Nam dashed after them, but his goal was not the centre. According to the clan information, the safest distance from the tomb was on its east side.
The Jade phoenix alliance young miss frowned at this, but they had made a pact, so she followed with her team.
“We are not being reckless like they are, are we?” she asked him as they dashed forward hurriedly.
“Reckless? It seems Lady Mai is still ignorant of the changes that occurred during her seclusion,” Ku Nam said and she frowned.
“I know enough,”
“Enough will pull you behind,” Ku Nam said.
“You think me wrong?”
“I think many people wrong, even myself. But one thing about this situation is a fact. As far as this tomb is concerned, he has the only advantage,” Ku Nam said as he sped forward.
“How?” she glanced back at Ed and Nti Anem’s form dashing ahead of them with a frown. She had heard enough stories about this heaven alliance patriarch’s disciple. Nothing about what she had heard give him an advantage over everyone racing towards the tomb.
“The Baju valley, the now deadly south side city, have one thing in common, Lady Mai. Have you not heard of it?” Ku Nam asked.
“Reports say that the energy from the tomb is somewhat similar,” she answered, "You can’t mean,”
“Lady Mai, the only person who has ever been completely unaffected by the Baju valley is him. You would be foolish to not see this advantage,” he said and she looked ahead as they caught up to Ed and Nti Anem who had slowed down slightly.
“Three,” Nti Anem flicked his wrist.
“Two,” he condensed spatial magic on his finger and flicked it as though a bug.
“One,” space tore in front of them, instantly corroding the road below as Ed and Nti Anem dashed through. Some cultivators saw an opportunity and dashed through the portal too.
“I dare say that the tomb’s energy and the others are one and the same kind,” Ku Nam chuckled as the dashed past the portal further ahead on the highway, ignoring the cultivators dashing in, just in time for the portal to wink shut.
