The Journey Of Yin And Yang - Volume 1 Chapter 78 They Have Returned Iv

“So the reason behind the killings was to prepare for the forbidden spell and to lure you to the Beast Realm?” Yang voiced his hypothesis after a while.

Magma nodded in agreement.

“Then who is the one behind the scheme?” The young Fire God scratched his head.

“To cast the Water Dome of Doom, one has to be very proficient in the arts of water. Thus the culprit has to be from the Water Clan, Water Demon Clan or Water Beast Tribe.” Magma explained to his son.

“We don’t have enmity with the Water Clan or the Water Beast Tribe, but the same can’t be said about the Water Demon Clan. However, the Water Demon Clan should have been eradicated in the clan war.”

Everyone casted a glance at the silent and dazed Blaze. Usually, they tended to avoid mentioning the clan war, since it was a very sensitive topic for him. Albeit, he seemed to lost in his own thoughts to have noticed.

“But the heir of the Water Demon Clan must have survived the war, since we never found his corpse.” Ember decided to remark.

“That’s true…” Magma stroke his chin as he contemplated over the past.

“Shadow One never managed to find him, right?” Ember knew that her husband had sent their leader of their intelligence force to search for him.

“No, that demon truly knows how to hide.” Magma sighed.

“Who is Shadow One?” Yang had never heard his parents or uncle mention Shadow One to him before.

“Shadow One is the head of our intelligence service, baby.” Ember caressed her son lightly on his head.

“Oh, I see.” Yang smiled at his mother.

“When Shadow One is back, I shall send him to find clues about the ambush. Leviathan is most likely behind it, but we will have to wait and see for further leads.” Magma said as he rose from his seat.

The sudden movement startled Blaze, who jumped a little as he was roused from his daydreams. At this reaction, Ember and Yang sniggered among themselves but stopped when they received a deathly glare from their source of enjoyment.

“And the ones that assisted your escape?” Yang tilted his head.

“Earth Demons. Shadow One will also be tasked to investigate them.”

“Great. Let me take a nap and restore my strength. Then I can follow him on his investigation.” Blaze yawned before rising up and leaving the dining hall.

“Uncle truly dislikes to stay at home, huh?” Yang smiled sadly.

“Ever since your aunt died, yes.” Ember said to her son as she walked up to Magma.

She wrapped her arms around her husband’s waist to console her own fears. Since she spoke of death, she couldn’t help but be reminded of how close her husband had been from death. Too close.
