Chapter 536: Rescuing Song Yue
As Fu Sheng collapsed, they were automatically freed and Steve rushed to Mark, giving him a hug, "Dad, are you alright? They took away mom. We have to go and save her." Because he was in a panic, English automatically came out of his mouth. As a result, their secret stayed protected.
"Nothing to worry. We will get her back for sure," Mark assured him with a pat on his shoulders.
Song Tai was awed by Mark's earlier display of power and seeing them conversing in an unfamiliar language to him, his suspicions only became stronger that all of these experts were from foreign realms.
Nevertheless, it doesn't matter at this moment as there is another urgent matter.
Song Tai sorted out his thoughts quickly and cupped his fists, "Thank you for saving us. I will come again and pay respects to you again, but I have to go and save His Majesty and His Highness."
As Mark nodded, Song Tai swiftly flew away toward the east.
Mark then looked at his sons, "Both of you, stay here and protect these people. We don't want another unfortunate incident."
"No, Dad, I'll come with you this time," Steve requested that he follow.
This time, before even Mark replied, James grabbed his brother's arm, "No, you will just get on his way. And if I'm correct, there is no way for us to follow Dad even if we want to. His spatial powers only allow him to travel alone."
"Yeah, that's correct." Mark patted Steve's shoulder and even James' shoulder, "But, there is another reason I won't take you with me. I don't want you to see the things I'm going to do, right now. So, stay here and focus on protecting these people. However, don't forget to prioritize your own lives."
Leaving those two in a bit of surprise, Mark spoke in his head, "System, connect me to the Space station."
*Ding! Connection established.
"Activate, Third Eye skill. Search for Song Yue, Age 22. Location Preference: Vermilion Bird Continent."
He closed his eyes to imagine her appearance.
Luckily for him, the Space station's position is currently above the Bloodhill forest. Hence, the reply came faster than usual.
*Ding! The target has been found.
Looking at the moving coordinates, Mark mumbled, "She is moving too fast. I have gone like only a couple of minutes and she has already crossed the borders."
"System, I need a favor."
Probably, the system already knew what he was going to ask, or perhaps, it was waiting for him to ask.
Whatever the case, as soon as he spoke those words, the system responded with a quest notification.
*Ding! You triggered an Emergency Quest, Rescue Song Yue.
Quest: Rescue Song Yue
Description: Song Yue was abducted by assailants with various affiliations while the host was away. Save her before it is too late.
Rewards: Unknown
"Accept"
*Ding! Teleport to the quest location?
Mark immediately took out another peak potion from the inventory and gulped it, increasing his stats to 9.9 and his ether particles to 9.9 billion.
Once he was ready, he gave his affirmation to the system.
"Yes"
A seal appeared below Mark's feet and he disappeared, reappearing in the sky and blocking the path of a flaming Pegasus.
Mark's eyes fell upon Song Yue, who was unconsciously lying on top of the beast in the 9-circle realm. His cold gaze then shifted to the mage floating beside her to the right and then to the familiar-looking man, the Werewolf Lord of the Beast Empire to the left.
"Tch… it's only been a few minutes and this guy has already caught up to us. It really looked like he put a tracking seal on her soul. So troublesome," muttered the Saint-realm mage in annoyance.
"I don't understand why you people are so afraid of him, Lord Yan. He is just a fake supreme being who probably consumed a peak-grade augmented pill," The Werewolf Lord let out a smirk and commented. "I'll just get rid of this pest for you."
"Gravity Dome, activate. 200g"
Mark didn't even engage in conversation with them and directly went into action, this time. There was only one thing on his mind and his motive was also reflected in his cold eyes.
The moment the gravity dome activated, without any surprise, the mysterious mage, The Werewolf Lord, and the Flaming Pegasus all started falling to the ground without being able to resist.
"Freezing Gaze"
After momentarily freezing the mage, Mark flapped his wings to fly toward the unconscious Song Yue, who was falling along with them.
However, before he could catch her, the Werewolf Lord caught her with a golden rope, containing divinity.
"Leave her, You mo*h**f****r…" Mark cursed him in rage and unleashed the thunderblast skill.
*Rumble*
The lightning bolt struck the Werewolf Lord, followed by the sound of thunder.
The Werewolf Lord died and Mark flapped his wings to speed up his flight, catching Song Yue.
Carrying in his left arm, he grabbed her face and shook it slightly, "Schatz… Schatz…"
"Eyes of God, Activate"
It was only after inspecting her status that Mark let out a sigh of relief and hugged her tightly, "Sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone like that. Phew…"
"Arghh…" The roar from the falling figure brought him back to reality. The mage appeared to have gotten out from the Freezing gaze spell and then covered himself with an ether barrier to reduce the pressure on his body, followed by mounting onto the flaming Pegasus and flying away.
Mark's eyes returned to coldness once again, looking at the fleeting figure. He took out unnamed once again, "You won't."
The box made from void stone and weighing over 1.32 billion kg once again made its appearance and had its weight increased by 200 times due to the gravity dome, but Mark didn't throw it at the enemy's back.
Instead, he carried it and used short teleportation to disappear and appear right in front of the enemy while carrying Song Yue in his arm by her waist. The mage was naturally startled by Mark's appearance.
He reflexively tried to attack him by raising his staff, but before he could attack him, Mark used his entire strength to strike his chest, this time, releasing massive amounts of energy.
The icy wings covered Mark and Song Yue as the burst of 140 petajoules of energy released from the collision, throwing both of them thousands of meters far away.
*Ding! You completed the quest.
*Ding! A Saint Realm mage and a demigod beast are killed. You received Supreme Potion as a reward.
Mark tightly hugged Song Yue with his wings covering her, until they crashed onto the ground and made a crater.
Meanwhile, someone in space, several light years away from the planet, Yujiang was seen imprisoned by chains of dark energy in a world filled with nothing but volcanoes and seas of lava.
"Dammit…" "These greedy beasts dared to go against the heavenly palace for the sake of that treasure…"
All of a sudden, the chains disappeared as his body shuddered by the energy he sensed from the planet he was keeping an eye on, for a while.
His eyes widened upon being freed from the imprisonment, "Someone managed to defeat that Dungeon Master?"
