'"Ugh, I hate it! I so did not wish to volunteer for the scouting mission."

"Everyone has to pull their weight Chasing Winds."

"I have no problem with pulling my weight Sister Estelle but you should know how dangerous those demonic cultivators are to others especially females."

Frost Flames growled at that as she spoke with irritation in her voice, "I believe you are too quiet you should keep on shouting and bickering louder and you just draw their attention, how did you even manage to become such high-level cultivator with your cowardice I will never understand."

Chasing Winds growled in anger as Ryuu spoke with a sigh, "Ladies please calm down, the faster we finish our scouting the faster we could all go back home."

Chianyu glared at them as he spoke, "If I am found out and die I swear on my name and honour I will haunt you like a vengeful ghost."

Chasing Winds glared right back at him as she spoke, "I will exorcise you."

Now it was time for Ryuu to glare, as he spoke with a hint of killing intent in his voice, "Chasing winds stop your whining it is annoying."

That sobered up her quickly as Ryuu continued to speak, "We are doing some extremely important reconnaissance there is no time for your tantrum, if you are so lazy and useless you should not have come with us into this realm."

Chasing Winds cowered in front of Ryuu's glare for a moment she felt her hair raise as if she was in front of a dangerous beast, "I am sorry for such an unsightly behaviour.", she quickly stammered out.

Ryuu let out a sigh as he spoke, "I understand you are afraid and a bit skittish as such you are lashing out like that, but there is no need to worry we are all here and we would survive as such you have nothing to worry just believe in each other and we would return home safe and sound."

"So true.", Frost Flames melodious voice came to Ryuu's ears who looked back at her with a smile on his face, 'I like the smile on her face.'

"You two get a room.", a retort from Chianyu brought them out of from their daydream as they both blushed furiously.

Estelle looked at the duo as she spoke with mirth in her voice, "When I first met Frost Flames she was calm, cold and stoic, I never thought I would one day see her blushing like a teenager, truly there are many things in this world that I have yet to see."

"W-what-what are you saying?"

As Frost Flames stuttered further with embarrassment Ryuu gave a small cough as he spoke while trying to contain her embarrassment, "Well I believe there are other important things to do so why don't we move along and finish our mission."

Although Elmer and his group after much searching had managed to find shelter for the night, it was a long sleepless night for them, just as it had been since then, they were restless and afraid of getting attacked by Preta realm and their restlessness proved to have been right on the mark as they were attacked the following day, a small scout of Preta realm cultivators had found them and even though they were evenly matched they could not afford to lose even a single one of them.

And that was the scene that Ryuu and his group had stumbled upon, a scene that made Ryuu gain a small smile on his face, "Well it seems we have some cultivators from Deva realm to rescue."

Elmer parried the attack of the enemy with the help of his scimitar only for him to fall backwards when he was hit on the leg courtesy of a mace, his eyes widen as he watched with dread the same scimitar only a few inches from his face, 'Am I going to die, just like this.', but his fear was for nought as a sword stopped the scimitar from harming him before it cut the scimitar welding cultivator down.

"Are you alright?", a voice came to his ears as he looked up he was greeted by the sight of a red-haired person with mismatch eyes standing in front of him with a spear in his left hand, while his right hand extended towards him.

'Wait! a spear, I thought it was a sword.' his musings were cut short when he heard the gurgle voice of someone choking in his blood.

He quickly scrambled up as the sword still dripping with blood came back to his rescuer's hands as he heard him speaking again, "Focus."

Meanwhile in another part of the small battle, Chasing winds had cornered a cultivator from Preta realm, who was eyeing her like a piece of meat making her shiver with disgust, 'ugh so disgusting my body belongs to only one.'

"Stop it I have a business to attend with your leader."

"Ho, what does a lowly wench wants ….", the person choked as Chasing Winds held an amulet in front of his face as she spoke, "Now can we talk like some civilized person?"

The man sobered up quickly as he nodded, Chasing Winds continued to speak, "Carry this message, and only your leader should see, also I do not wish for others to suspect me as such wound me a bit then run for your life, if you get caught I will make you beg for your death."

"We can…", whatever the person was about to say was stopped from glare from Chasing Winds who spoke hurriedly, "Damn it, do what I have ordered your companions are dead already they just do not know it, this message is important than your pathetic life, now do it."

~slinck~

A sound was the only thing that Chasing Winds heard before she was on her knees, gasping for breath as she swore at the retreating figure, 'Damn him I told him to injure me a bit not take out my legs off completely, not to mention it was not even done correctly, incompetent the lots of them. Ugh, the things I do for my owner.'

As she quickly tore parts of her dress, while applying a few more cuts over her body before she moved towards others, and by the time she reached them the Preta realm cultivators have been routed completely although not without any the Deva realm cultivator taking some injuries.

Ryuu stood in front of Elmer as he gave a slight bow as he spoke, "Greetings fellow Daoist from Deva Realm, my name is Ryuu, Lieutenant 2nd Class of 139th Battalion, Immortal Phoenix Army may I know your name?"

Elmer's eyes widen slightly before he spoke while returning the bow, "Thank you fellow Daoist brother my name is Elmer, thank you for saving our lives."

But before anyone could say anything Chasing Winds appeared with a distressed look on her face, "Brother Ryuu, sorry I failed one of them injured me and escaped."

Ryuu growled at that before he turned towards Elmer as he spoke with an urgent look on his face, "We should move, the last thing we would want is a horde of those creatures swarming us.", Elmer nodded in consent as the group left as fast as they could while carrying on their injured members.

Meanwhile, Serpent Queen skipped over towards Jerthrar with a smile on her face, seeing her elated look on her face Jerthrar could not help but ask out, "What made you so happy?"

"Here look at this.", with that she handed him a scroll with a message written on top of it as he went through the message a savage grin formed on his face.

" 'Rain Sword Ryuu' is here, so will you go out to take revenge on him, after all, he killed your brother."

Jerthrar's face scrunched up in deep thought as he spoke, "Nah, I will not pursue him until and unless he stumbles upon in front of me, after all since that idiot of big brother is dead, I will be getting his share of the inheritance and as for letting him live, well we grant the wish of our dear hard-working sleeper agent who is present amongst them working so hard for us, it would be great that after everything they have secured and worked hard to achieve snatched in front of their eyes, truly that person has such a sense of humour."
