[You have summoned your soulbound Saena.]

[You will have increased health regeneration of about 200%.]

[You have a 20% chance to heal 50% of the damage dealt to you. This healing percentage is subject to healing reduction spells or attacks.]

"Saena, heal both Peridot and Saru." Adrian commanded as Saena started to heal the two with its abilities.

"This is the sacred territory of the House of the Azure Dragon. Leave now and we will gladly offer you a chance to walk away." Zhong Donghai stated with great killing intent.

Adrian knows of people with that kind of character. They will make you believe that they are granting you reprieve but in fact they will immediately stab you in the back when your guard is down. Negotiating with individuals like this would only make one lose their life.

"Sorry but this mountain is not yours to claim. I do not see the seal of the House of the Azure Dragon embedded in this very mountain. In conclusion, this is not your territory because you would have the power to expel us if you did." Adrian stated.

"I agree. Once I get off this mountain, I will show the other overlords on what your house is doing. They will clearly hear and see how the House of the Azure Dragon is overbearing." Peridot stated as he wanted to strike fear on both Zhong Donghai and Lan.

The only thing that the two fears most is the punishment that their house will give them upon learning of what they planned. Still, Zhong Donghai believed that the punishment will be waived as long as he gets the Qilin.

"You want the Qilin for yourself, right?" Adrian stated as he noticed that Zhong Donghai looked at the Qilin with extreme greed.

"I do not need to answer that question to a dead man walking." Zhong Donghai stated as he commanded the soldiers to get ready for battle.

"You will not be able to get the Qilin out of this place. He is trapped here by an Array master after all. Even if you did bring a Charm Master, her skills would be not enough to create a hole in this array. If she makes one mistake, then the whole mountain would explode." Adrian stated as the array is difficult to change.

The soldiers of the House of the Azure Dragon suddenly shuddered from the words that left Adrian's mouth. If the whole mountain explodes then they also will die with the Qilin trapped inside of it. Zhong Donghai saw this and immediately returned his control of the soldiers that he brought.

"Do not listen to the demon. Do you not know that they only spout lies and deception?" Zhong Donghai shouted.

"Wrong race. I am terribly offended." Adrian stated sarcastically as Zhong Donghai is referring to the devils but then again devils cannot outright lie.

"Attack them!" Zhong Donghai commanded as the soldiers charged towards Adrian's group.

"Quantum Dispersion!" Adrian stated as he blew the soldiers back towards the area where Zhong Donghai is being protected.

"Rise up you, trash. Kill that despicable being." Zhong Donghai shouted again, and the frustration of the soldiers increased the more he spouted nonsense.

Zhong Donghai did not even participate in the battle as even he fears the demon from what Lan has told him. He tried his best to hide his fear in a mask of anger and frustration. The demon is releasing an aura that keeps him from being afraid as his sharp senses could tell that the demon before him is definitely not someone normal.

"If I were you, I would stop this farce because I am not joking when I said that the mountain will explode if you make one wrong move in manipulating the array. If you really want to then be my guest, the three of us will be on our way. We do not want to die from an explosion after all." Adrian stated.

After Adrian said his piece, he used his mirrors to immediately transport his group away from the fight. Peridot did not even have a chance to ask Adrian if what he did is the correct way. She obviously thought that he was joking, and this is all part of the act.

"To think that they will escape that easily and leave the Qilin behind." Zhong Donghai stated as he took out another treasure that he 'borrowed' from the treasury.

Zhong Donghai took out an old looking rope, but appearances will deceive anyone. It is actually a Mythical tier relic that is said to even have the power to bind the gods themselves. It is called the Rope of Perpetuity. The cool sounding name does not match the ragged and dirty appearance of the rope.

"Bind it." Zhong Donghai stated.

The Rope of Perpetuity then flew away from the hands of Zhong Donghai and became longer. The rope that suddenly changed in length then bound the Qilin. The great beast could not believe that it is trapped in another form of shackle while the demon that promised to free it just fled.

"You do your job." Zhong Donghai stated as he pointed towards the Charm Master that he brought.

Zhong Donghai did not want to originally use the Rope of Perpetuity as it is an even more valuable treasure than the Orb of the Azure Dragon. It can even be used to restrain a weakened holy beast after all.

The Charm Master bowed towards Zhong Donghai and immediately scattered paper talismans all over the area where the Qilin is currently being bound. She then recited some sort of prayer and the paper talismans glowed in a bright light.

She then suddenly scrunched her face as she suddenly became nervous. She does not want to believe it but from her perspective, she cannot break the array by herself. The fear of the whole mountain exploding suddenly echoed inside of her head. She did not want to die as she is a promising Charm Master.

She still has a bright future ahead of her and she does not want to bet on her life for this twisted young master. She still wants her dream of becoming an Array Master come true.
