Sam finally calmed down after holding her neck, he is just a single move away from breaking her neck and killing her, but for some reason, he couldn't bring himself to do so.

He has enough reason to kill her, as he was the one who started it, but the small interaction made they had made him realize that the killing intent was not due to the animosity rather it seemed as if she doesn't know any other way other than killing if Sam doesn't agree to give her the formation simulator.

It kind of reminded him of some of the incidences he survived in his previous life and he felt a faint reluctance budding inside him, making him hesitate to kill her.

The young lady kept silent and as Sam was contemplating, she threw a fireball made of dark red flames on him. The flames are of high intensity. Although they are not on par with the Golden sun flames, they are extremely strong, but the attack was too weak as she lost all her strength in the fight earlier.

The three puppets consumed her spiritual energy to fight him and there is no way she would be able to defeat Sam in this state.

Sam shook his head and let her down, without doing anything. He took out the formation simulator and gave it to her before saying.

"What is your name and where are you from?"

….

After about half-an-hour later, Sam came out and let her go in her own way. He was thinking deeply.

He could relate to many things from that girl. Her thirst for knowledge and pursuit of the things that could improve her skills and even the unwavering determination on verge of death, he has been through all of that in his previous life.

That is why he left her to live. If the situation arises and he gets to meet her again, he would like to see how much she would change.

Their conversation after the battle should bring some changes to her.

"Sirona," Sam muttered her name as he walked towards the skyscr.a.p.er. The sun has already set and it would be great to relax for a while.

But Sam doesn't get a chance to do so. A man ran towards him with a scroll in his hands.

When Sam read the contents, he frowned and took out harbinger to leave the place immediately.

At this moment, five hundred meters away from Sam's city, the young man with the chain sickle is sitting on a rock and there are signs of an extreme battle. He popped some pills and he is back in shape.

He looked at the three people in front of him.

Jack, Philip, and Watt are looking at him with extreme anger, this guy just came out of nowhere and made a sneak attack. Even though he is only a Level-3 Grand realm cultivator, he is powerful than any normal cultivator they encountered.

They have been through a bitter battle but only to be subdued by him.

What is even more infuriating is that, if it was a direct confrontation, they could have escaped, but this guy laid a trap and there was no way for them to escape, they are just five hundred meters away and they weren't even able to escape to the city.

The only silver lining is the battle is not one-sided.

At least, they were able to wear this guy down completely. But right in front of their eyes, with just a single pill, not only this guy healed, but also regained all his spiritual energy.

This stunned them greatly. All it took was five minutes for him to get back to his peak state.

As they were thinking of ways on how to deal with the situation, they heard the wind whistling and Sam arrived on Harbinger.

He looked at the situation and frowned.

The surroundings showed that the battle has been really intense but the other party who defeated the trio doesn't seem injured at all.

His attire does have some tears and skin exposed, but the wounds are completely healed.

Compared to him, Sam who just had a serious battle is in a pretty bad state, even now, he is absorbing the energy from the energy cells of Harbinger.

The battle he had with Sirona was nowhere near mediocre.

He still has some wounds and some muscle aches from that and the spiritual energy is only half full.

He sized up the other party who is wearing a Black dress from top to bottom, even his face was covered with black cloth and his eyes are the only thing that is visible.

There is a chain sickle hanging on his back. As Sam was sizing that person up, he is doing the same and there is a hint of surprise in his eyes.

In fact, it is more of a shock than a surprise.

"Who are you?" The man asked Sam in a surprised tone.

"You wouldn't be here if you don't know me," Sam replied in a nonchalant manner. There is no way that a person who could defeat the trio single-handedly a normal person, should be extremely strong, but that doesn't mean, he is afraid.

When the other party heard his answer, he came back to his senses and he said.

"I want you to come with me to the Beast faction." He asked as if there is no enmity between them.

Sam frowned, this guy is so full of himself, he is not just asking a shadow sword, he is even asking Sam to come to his faction.

"You better leave them now, otherwise let alone taking me, you wouldn't be able to go back to your Beast faction."

When Sam said these words, the young man frowned and then looked at the remaining three.

"It seems like, you would be following me if I take them away." He said to Sam and took out three scrolls.

Sam frowned when he looked at the scrolls and made a move. The Harbinger whistled through the air as he flashed on the board. He took out the reaper and slashed directly at his head.

But the sickle appeared at the contact point entirely blocking it.

Sam didn't stop there and his target is not the man, rather the three scrolls.

He concentrated wind element energy in his sword and slashed at the scrolls.

One of the scrolls which have numerous inscriptions on it exploded and there are some spatial tears at the place.

This is a transference scroll and quite a high level one at that. In fact, rather than calling it a transference scroll, they are keys to a portable space gate from which the people from the six major powers entered the western continent.

The young man with the sickle looked at Sam with a serious expression.

Sam put away the harbinger and stood there motionlessly. He put a space jade inside his mouth and started taking the energy from the energy cells.

The opponent could feel that Sam is recovering at a rapid pace.

But the shadow sword and their recruitment are not his goals anymore. He has to take Sam to the Beast faction to verify something.

He doesn't even want to kill Sam. He must verify the case.

He slowly stepped backward and arrived near the trio who could barely stand up.

Sam became vigilant, even though, there is no one who is making moves among them, the tension is too high.

Both of them are observing each other and if anyone of them raises their energy to attack, then it would cause utter chaos.

The problem is that one of them wants to escape and the escape would be an instant transmission. If Sam made a move, then it would be extremely difficult to stop that guy, even if he used the shadow flashing, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

The worst thing is the other party is also trying to take the three people away and his spiritual energy is in full capacity.

Sam has all kinds of disadvantages in the battle.

Even if he took out the beasts, the same thing might happen, a small energy fluctuation is all it takes and the battle will be over.

He managed to deal with the first attempt and there is no way it would work again.

Sam is extremely baffled on why this guy who sent a scroll to the city with such bravery wasn't even willing to fight him now. This completely baffled him and doesn't know what to do. He is at a loss.

He looked at the trio and started gesturing with his eyes. They are also slowly recovering their spiritual energy.

When the opponent saw these gestures, he made a move. At this exact moment, Sam spat out three energy cells which are in the size of spiritual stones.

The opponent pasted the three scrolls on the three of them, and the three cells are flying towards the scrolls.

The opponent looked at them and tried to divert them with the chain sickle but was only able to hit one of them as he was busy activating the scrolls.

The energy cells dropped on the scrolls of Philip and Jack and the one that was sent to Watt missed.

The energy cells exploded and the scrolls failed to work as the spiritual energy flow completely halted.

At this exact moment, the opponent and Watt shimmered as their spatial transfer began. Sam's shadow flashed and was about to slash, but missed as they disappeared.

"I am Sanjay. Come and find me in the Beast faction in a year, if you want to find your friend. Don't worry till then your friend would be safe."

Sam was devastated, he looked at the spot from where Watt disappeared angrily, he wanted to hack himself to death for being incapable.

But he pulled himself together and started walking back.

"Come back and rest." He didn't want to let his anger out. He will be storing this emotion in and let the beast faction see what it takes to bear the consequences of kidnapping his friend.

He would show them what a living hell is.
