Dayus activated an interdimensional transference token which he got his hands-on with a lot of effort. He had to pay a large price for it, but it is guaranteed to work which is another lifeline. So, he didn't even hesitate while paying the price.

He looked at Sam with malice as he was being sucked by the spatial elemental energy around him.

But all of a sudden, Sam disappeared from the spot and he reappeared right behind him. His shadow armor was gone and he is currently in his partial space elemental form.

He held Dayus' nape and drew him back while spatial energy ran wild.

Dayus suddenly felt that he stopped. The force that was about to pull him away from this spot, seemed to have slowed down.

He turned his head to look at Sam in horror.

"What? Do you think I would fall for your pathetic acting? And do you really think a toy like this can save your ass? "

Sam spoke coldly as he used his spatial energy to counter the spatial energy responsible for the transfer of Dayus.

Spatial energy is something he used the least, but that is not because he is not good at it, rather it is extremely energy-consuming and Sam who is obsessed with energy efficiency couldn't possibly use it in every battle.

After he broke through a bit more, he would be able to use it as he liked, but since he doesn't have any reason to conserve his energy now, he decided to use it and show Dayus what Despair truly means.

Sam held the hand that was holding the token and started injecting his own spatial energy. The tokens and transference scrolls work on the same principle, they create a temporary node to transfer the person away like a one-sided space gate.

But for the temporary node construction, some time would be needed and within that time, if Sam managed to restrict the spatial energy and make the token expend all the energy, he would be able to stop the other party.

As Sam injected more and more energy Dayus groaned painfully as he looked at Sam and tried his best to control his own energy to expel the spatial energy.

But his energy is being depleted at a rapid rate and soon he felt it being collected at the shoulder joint of the hand.

He widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at Sam.

At first, Sam used the spatial energy to just dissipate the lightning energy, but the very next instant he started doing something else, he used the uniqueness of the spatial energy and blocked the energy blow, and made the lightning energy accumulate at the shoulder joint.

If this happens, the energy will soon explode and destroy the joint as well as the flesh surrounding it. The spatial energy will corrode the flesh and he wouldn't be able to heal it back unless he found a healer who has experienced elemental poisoning or a space elemental cultivator who can absorb and direct the space elemental energy.

He would lose his arm.

The worst part is, if Sam has done this at the elbow joint, he would have cut the remaining arm eliminating the corroded part completely to heal, but he is doing this at the shoulder joint. There is nothing to sever there.

"Sam, No, please, no. Don't do that."

He spoke in a low voice which is trembling in fear and despair. But Sam didn't care and looked at him with a cold smile and said.

"You need to pay the price for your decisions. Good luck trying to find a person who can regrow your arm. I heard there is a person named Vardar who is a great healer when it comes to elemental corrosion and poisoning. You can find him and try to get your arm back."

"No, Sam. I have important information that I could give you in exchange…"

As he spoke…

*bOOm*

A small explosion was heard at the shoulder joint and Sam also released the space elemental restriction.

"NOOOOOOOOO…."

Dayus screamed in agony and heartache as he looked at his arm while the token sucked it and transported it away.

Sam looked at Dayus who is currently screaming in agony.

"So what is the information you are talking about?"

Sam asked as he looked at him calmly.

Dayus looked at him with hateful eyes.

"You either tell me that or I would use the soul extraction after killing you. And if you tell me the truth, I will cure the elemental corrosion, otherwise, I will cut off another arm in the same way and then leave you in the lurch. You know what will happen to you after that."

Dayus looked at Sam and said.

"It is because of the Night Demon family. One of their members is part of the Five great sects and has a decent position in the outer branch. He was in your pursuit after you exterminated their family. I accidentally met him and we both planned this."

"So, the transference token would have led you to him?"

"No. I got it somewhere else for a high price."

"Now that the plan failed, what will happen to your cooperation?"

"Of course, I am going to escape. That guy invested a lot in the plan. The golden flame explosion that occurred at the entrance was created with a lot of effort and he had to owe someone a favor for that."

"For that little trick?"

Sam said with a raised eyebrow.

Dayus didn't bother to reply to that and continued.

"He paid a large price for that. If I go back to him after the failure, he would be on to me and I would have to pay him back. He is stronger than me. So, I am going to escape."

"Is that it?"

"Yes."

"Are you sure, there is nothing for you to tell me?"

"No, just clear the corrosion already, I can feel the spatial energy spreading."

Sam placed his hand on the injury and sucked the spatial energy out. He didn't heal the rest though.

He then thought for a bit and called for Night Ghost.

Night Ghost made some hand signs and Dayus felt something entering his sea of consciousness forcefully.

"This is a soul imprint. If you are in the same realm as I am I would be able to track you down and I would be able to identify your soul scent.

So, if you have any ideas of going against my organization, be careful of what is going to happen next. I think you already know what I did to Arman at the beginning of our clash. I will give you ten times the torture."

When Dayus heard this, he widened his eyes in disbelief. When Sam saw that expression, he knew that this precaution was necessary. Dayus is really thinking of doing something to the organization to vent some anger.

Dayus took a high-grade pill and his arm slowly started growing back. Sam let him go.

He didn't want to kill him. At least not yet. This time, because of Dayus' involvement he managed to finish one-third of the task easily.

He didn't have to create a plot from the scratch and only had to improvise the already existing plan. For now, the more players the better.

After Dayus left, Sam finally changed his attention back to the First young master.

The first young master looked back at Sam and said in a trembling voice.

"I… I am sorry. Please let me go."

Sam smiled and said.

"Should I really let you go? Give me a proper reason?"

"I… I…"

Brother One couldn't find a single reason for that. Even though it was Dayus who egged him, he is still the one that framed Sam and made him a target of the puppet organization. Luckily, Sam managed to get the information beforehand because of his surveillance and Arkiv. Otherwise, they would have been in a bit of trouble.

And the plans of other players helped him a bit.

Otherwise, if he was directly in the city and he was already wanted by then, he would have had to clash against the puppet organization unprepared.

Sam looked at him and said.

"Even though you are smart, you are not cunning enough. I will give you a chance. If you can utilize it properly, you can live, otherwise, you will die."

Brother One looked at him with widened eyes. He didn't know that there is still hope for him.

"But after this ended, you wouldn't be able to rule over the high and mighty puppet organization because I don't have time or resources to spare people to rule this organization, instead you can work for me. If you agree to that you can live, or you will die and I will plan it from there."

The first young master looked at Sam and carefully thought what he should do.

"I will join you."

"Good," Sam said and turned towards Night Ghost, who got ready to do a soul contract.
