The Last Primal

There were more than 2,000 Crystal Palace Sect martial artists with six Guardians included… but none of them survived!

Lysabel Kela stood squarely on the city wall, gazing at the derelict ancient city that was strewn with corpses and blood with a dazed expression.

The ancient city was already occupied entirely by demon beasts.

She was the only martial artist still alive.

If Aiden had not handed her over to the side of the monkey, spirit tiger, and the other demon beasts, she would have been ripped apart by the demon beasts a long time ago.

Although it was only a short night, it felt like a long time to Lysabel Kela.

She witnessed with her own eyes her sect mates being murdered mercilessly by someone.

However, that person was her life-saving benefactor.

She witnessed hundreds of thousands of martial artists buried here.

She also witnessed a flourishing and relentless ancient city transform into ruins overnight!

Lysabel Kela should feel hatred towards Aiden.

After all, that man killed Southern Duel Sect martial artists personally and attracted a beast stampede to kill off more than half the martial artists in this ancient city.

However, she could not bring herself to do that.

It wasn\'t only because Aiden had saved her previously.

More than that, it was because, in the depths of her heart, it was difficult to distinguish between who was right and wrong.

At that moment, that man returned, basking in sunlight.

Monkey grinned and the spirit tiger yelled in joy. The Golden Lion reared its head and roared while the little fox clutched its tiny paws with an emotional look.

During Lysabel Kela\'s moment of silence, the man had already descended upon the city wall.

Pursing her lips, Lysabel Kela headed forward and said with cupped fists, "Thank you for not killing me, Young Master. I\'ll… take my leave here."

She had already sensed how out of place she was with everything here.

There was no way she could stay on.

"Yes,"

Aiden replied, "Although it\'s daytime now, there are still many dangers lurking in the ancient battlefield. If you\'re not in a hurry, you can rest here for the time being and I\'ll escort you to another gathering spot."

What he meant by the time being was for the monkey, the spirit tiger, and the other demons to recover.

Lysabel Kela shook her head.

She truly did not know how she should get along with Aiden in the future.

When he saw that, Aiden did not force her and said, "Take care along the way then."

Lysabel Kela nodded and turned to leave.

Not long after she left the ancient city, she could not help but turn back to gaze at the green-colored figure, saying, "It won\'t be long before news of what happened here spreads to the rest of the ancient battlefield. You\'ve got to… take care as well."

"Alright,"

A reply transmitted over from the ancient city.

Sighing internally, Lysabel Kela let go of the slight reluctance in her heart and sped into the distance.

…

On the city wall.

Aiden swept his gaze across the monkey, the spirit tiger, little fox, and the Golden Lion. When he saw that they were recovering nicely, he finally smiled, unable to conceal the joy in his eyes.

There was nothing more joyous than to reunite with old friends and acquaintances.

There seemed to be endless things to say between Aiden, the monkey, and the spirit tiger and they could not stop conversing.

"Aiden!"

Ignoring its injury, the monkey strode over and extended its fist, thumping heavily on Aiden\'s chest.

Dong!

Aiden did not dodge and took the blow.

The man and monkey looked at one another and smiled.

It was as though at that moment, they had gone back in time and returned to the days when they fought side by side in Iron Mountain Range.

Golden Lion looked on and felt envy at their chemistry and relationship.

After witnessing the terror of Aiden\'s strength, it wanted to get to know him as well.

However, at the end of the day, it had only known Aiden for a couple of days. Previously, it was even just a mount for Aiden and there was naturally no way it could compete against the status of the monkey and the spirit tiger.

The spirit tiger walked over and shrugged its head, chuckling. "After forming his Inner Core, the first word that Boss said in the common tongue was your name."

Aiden felt warmth in his heart.

Previously, be it monkey or the spirit tiger, neither of them formed an Inner Core and could not speak in the human tongue.

Their interactions were mostly a series of shouts.

To think that the first word the monkey said would be his name.

They had not seen each other for more than 20 years.

Monkey had changed a lot.

The only thing that remained the same was its feral nature, the pride in its eyes, and its feelings towards Aiden!

The spirit tiger said smugly, "After we could take on human form, we gave ourselves names so that it would be more convenient for us to roam the world."

Monkey pouted its lips in disdain.

The spirit tiger perked up and took a deep breath before speaking as though it was declaring something of paramount importance, "My name is… Little Dragon!"

"Pfft!"

The little fox could not help but blurt out laughing.

Aiden could barely hold it in as well.

The moment the spirit tiger saw that, it was worked up. "What are you guys laughing about? What\'s bad about that name?!"

"Shameless,"

Monkey snorted and remarked ruthlessly.

The spirit tiger\'s eyes widened and it raised its chin, arguing with a flushed face, "What\'s so shameless about it? It\'s such a great name that\'s rare in the world and absolutely dominating!"

Aiden laughed. "The name is crude and gaudy, but I guess it\'s quite matching with your character."

"All of you guys are jealous!"

The spirit tiger\'s face darkened as it clenched its teeth in a huff, trembling from head to toe such that its wounds reopened.

"What about you? You didn\'t get yourself a name?"

Aiden turned towards the monkey.

Pouting, the monkey\'s eyes were filled with disdain as it raised its head. "I\'m me, I don\'t require a name! I\'m going to be the strongest monkey demon in this world from this day forth! The moment anyone mentions a monkey demon, I\'ll be the first to come to mind!"

Aiden nodded.

That was the true meaning of domineering!

Monkey\'s ambitions had never been small.

Back in the Iron Mountain Range, it was already bent on being the demon king of the mountain range!

Eventually, it was proven that monkey indeed had the capabilities.

Its bloodline was extremely unusual!

Aiden witnessed how monkey entered a berserk state on the city wall.

This secret skill of triggering one\'s power of bloodline was definitely a legacy of an extremely powerful and rare race!

Suddenly, something else came to Aiden\'s mind.

In the world, apart from him who knew about the unique and ancient technique from the old man in the Ancient One\'s Temple, the monkey also knew about one of its sections – the Tendons Transformation section.

Aiden asked, "Where did you guys go after leaving Azure Myst sect? Why did you enter the ancient battlefield and come here?"

"Boss could not stay in Azure Myst sect any longer after knowing that you were missing and there was no news of whether you were dead or alive,"

The spirit tiger said, "Later on, Boss insisted on leaving to look for you and I followed along. There was no meaning to us staying in Azure Myst sect if you weren\'t there."

"Initially, that stupid bird wanted to sneak out along with us as well. However, it was caught by the old immortal crane and had no choice but to stay in Azure Myst sect."

At the mention of the stupid bird, there was a reminiscent look in the spirit tiger\'s eyes as it showed a rare display of emotions. "I wonder how that stupid bird\'s doing. Has it formed its Inner Core yet?"

The stupid bird the spirit tiger was referring to was the child of Azure Myst sect\'s immortal beast.

The spirit tiger and the immortal beast\'s child spent the most time together and their relationship was naturally closer.
