Chapter 83 Eyes That Peered Into The Abyss(Chapter Preview)

"Jiyai must have told you about the rebels and all but you don't know about the tribe. It was called the Su tribe and it had a rule that every member would use the Su surname. But after the tribe merged with the rebels. Only a few key members were allowed to use the surname Su." Huan said as he sat down on a couch made from wood and grass.

He gestured for Kai and his companions to sit down on a couch opposite of him and they sat down.

He then gestured for Jiayi to leave the house and she glared at her father before leaving and closing the door behind her.

"Now everyone here believes that there is no other continent other than the one we are loving on. But the rebels had brought valuable information about the other continents with them and they were the ones who told us about the gates of heaven. They are four swirling portals that can teleport you to the other four continents and all of them are situated were situated at the royal palace.

One of the main reasons people decided to rebel was because of the royal family's plan to capture all the continents. But it backfired since every continent was under the protection of the five great beasts, excluding the Yellow Dragon. But unfortunately, the host of the Yellow Dragon died and a new host was chosen who overthrew the rebellion single-handedly." Huan explained about the history of the continent.

"The rebels then taught us about making advanced weapons and about combat strategies as the tribe didn't think much about their own life and they only wanted to fight. And after that many years, the Su tribe has now become advanced and safe to live." Huan explained as he took out a necklace from below his clothes.

The necklace was made from natural ingredients and had a scroll tied to it. Huan retrieved the scroll from the necklace and opened it.

The scroll described the space gates in detail and also told about the other continents and how they were rooted to a spot.

"This scroll contains the sacred information about other continents and gates of heaven. The leader of the outcasts is in charge of this scroll since the formation of the outcasts. I will protect this scroll till the time I die or pass my position to another man." Huan said as closed the scroll.

"Go outside and you will find Jiyai. She will take you to a house where you will stay for the rest of your time here. Huan said as the trio left.

He then went to the backside of his house and opened the back door. The men from earlier were standing there with a serious expression.

"Leader, your daughter still doesn't want to follow clan customs and instead of getting hurt or being afraid, she is becoming braver in the wild. You will have to do something about her or the rest of the women will also start following her example." One of the men said as Huan thought about this.

"Then there is only one thing we can do." Huan said with a grim face as he looked at the sky. The men knelt and went back to do their respective jobs.

"May the demon god spare us." He whispered before closing the door.

,m [ That was way too easy. They found us in a cave and just allowed us to stay here. There are definitely scheming something. ] Mia said to Kai as he nodded.

[ We are always part of some scheme so this is nothing new. For now, let's focus on getting some information. ] Kai said as the three of them saw Jiyai standing near a tree.

"Follow me and I will take you to your house." Jiyai said as soon as the trio reached near her.

Kai, Mia, and Mariel quietly followed her as Kai closely examined the entire place. No matter what anyone would say, this place was one of the most backwards places Kai had ever seen.

All the young males were either training their bodies or practicing their attacking skills. But when he looked at the young females, Kai hardly saw them.

Almost all of them were inside their houses and the few he found outside were doing minor chores like cleaning the area in front of their house or gathering vegetables for food.

"This place requires change." Kai said to himself but Jiyai heard him.

"Yes, you are right. But it's futile. Every female in this place is just treated like an animal for breeding and household work. The males dominate the entire place and they hunt and bring food for the entire place. Other than that, the females are not allowed to cultivate. Since I am the daughter of the leader, I am an exception but that will all disappear when the new leader will be chosen." Jiyai told Kai.

She was tightly clenching her fist and her eyes were full of hatred.

"On our continent, the strong rule and it doesn't matter if you are a male or female. In a way, everyone is equal on our continent since anyone can cultivate and do what they want. And I am pretty sure that this place is the only place which follows such rules since I have visited the southern continent too." Kai replied as Jiyai gave Kai a small smile.

They reached their house which was just like every other house in the village. The only trait about it was that the house was empty.

"Be safe and remember, they are watching you." Jiyai came closer to Kai and whispered in his ear before leaving.

"What did she say?" Mariel asked as Kai created a sound barrier around the house.

"She told me to be careful and that someone is watching us." Kai said as Mia and Mariel narrowed their eyes.

"I don't think there's any point in staying inside this house for the rest of our time. Huan said only a few key members know about the important details so there is no point in asking these people about Risea. I am going to use my spiritual sense to find one of those key members as they will have high levels of cultivation." Kai said after a while and used his spiritual sense on the entire area.

Except it didn't work. His spiritual sense rebounded back on himself and he frowned. Kai used his spiritual sense again but it didn't work. That's when reality struck him.

"No way. My spiritual is so weak that some measly space gates can block it." He sighed as Mia and Mariel looked at each other in confusion.

"Space gates are made from space energy and are used for teleportation but they have a secondary purpose too. They can block the spiritual sense of cultivators if they have a lower cultivation compared to the creator of the space gate." Kai explained to them as he walked out of the house.

"I guess we will have to go and check Huan's memories." Kai said as he teleported the three of them back to the main house.

"Why are you here ag-" Huan started to say but he suddenly froze on his spot.

Kai then went near him and touched his forehead as his eyes started glowing.

"Hey Kai, can you filter memories?" Mariel asked.

"Yeah, I can look for particular memories about something or someone." Kai replied as he searched Huan's memories to gain some information about Risea.

'The pink-haired alchemy expert' was the nickname Kai had gotten from a trader on the western continent.

The trader was originally from the central continent and he stole some pills from the Fang family's treasury.

But those pills had been created by Risea who, according to the rumors, was the Fang family's prisoner.

After searching Huan's memories and obtaining the information he needed, Kai deleted Huan's memories of him, Mia, and Mariel being in the main house.

Kai then teleported them back to their assigned house and played the memories he had retrieved from Huan.

The memories showed Huan cultivating in his house when two men burst into his house.

"Leader, the raid team is back." One of the men said as Huan hurriedly followed him.

A group of men with numerous bloody wounds were sitting in the middle of a huge crowd.

"You are back. Not even death could keep you from coming back. But who am I to talk about that?" Huan suddenly said as he directly looked at Kai.

For the first time ever, a trace of fear appeared in Kai's eyes. Mia and Mariel gasped as their surroundings started to change.

The entire place was engulfed with darkness but it was not like normal darkness. To Mia, this felt like the time she visited The Darkness with Kai.

And then, a pair of eyes appeared in the dark. The white area of the eye was completely black while the iris was blood red.

The eyes stared at the group and Mia and Mariel felt as though their very souls were being watched by the owner of the eyes.

That's when Kai opened his mouth, his voice shaking a little.

"Eyes that peered into the abyss." Kai said, his voice barely audible as darkness engulfed the trio.
