"It's a special ability of us evil shadow race. Those who are related by blood can sense each other.
The closer they are to each other, the stronger their connection will be.
Like my mother and I. As soon as I saw her, I immediately knew that it was her,"
Caroline explained.
"I see.
Then, can you feel if anyone from your family is in that palace?"
Austin asked.
"Yes, there is someone.
And I can feel that it's a close family member.
It can only be the Evil Shadow King."
Caroline seemed so sure that it couldn't be anyone else.
Truth be told, she resented the Evil Shadow King.
However, he was still her father, and that couldn't be changed.
"That's great! We finally found the Evil Shadow King!
I hope he is still alive,"
said Austin. Caroline didn't seem happy with the fact, but she nodded.
"Don't worry. He's still alive,"
she reassured him.
With that said, Austin, Caroline, and the demonic avatar headed for the huge grey palace in the middle of the plain.
The dozens of evil dragon beasts were caught off-guard. They couldn't do anything but growl lowly, as they stared at their retreating backs. They glanced at them but relaxed when not even one of the beasts pursued them.
After a short while, they arrived at the central region of the plain.
They could see the grey palace more clearly now.
It was a looming and intimidating presence, its grey walls huge and lackluster. On its top was a pointed spire, and around it were statues of different Evil Gods. The varying ferocious features looked down upon them as if they would spring down any moment and devour them.
Numerous mysterious gray runes hovered around the palace like schools of fish that were swimming in the deep sea.
At the entrance of the palace stood several men of the evil shadow race. The aura that surrounded them was terrifying in strength, and their menacing faces were equally frightening.
"Who are you? You have no business here. Leave at once!"
As soon as Austin spotted the men from the evil shadow race, they too looked up and spotted them. The men wore startled expressions, caught off-guard by their sudden presence.
That was probably because one's range of spiritual sense perception was very limited in the valley.
Even Austin's spiritual sense was only able to probe a range of several miles.
As for others, it was even less than that.
Although the guards at the palace gate were strong, their spiritual sense was much weaker than that of Austin.
Therefore, they didn't notice Austin and Caroline until they were right under their noses.
When they didn't answer, the men were alarmed. They wondered how the two of them managed to sneak up on the guards.
"What-- How did you get here?" One of the guards sputtered, but he recovered quickly.
His tone was stern, but his eyes were widened in astonishment. He peered curiously at the unexpected guests.
After all, it was not easy to survive in the Fallen God Valley.
It was the most dangerous place in the Evil Shadow World, and every turn was filled with unknown dangers.
Not even sect ancestors were assured of safety from the dangers that lurked inside it.
There was no hope for ordinary people if they ventured into the valley. The only reprieve they could have was a painless and quick death
The guards eyed the young man and woman, and the avatar that suddenly appeared in front of them.
Their physical appearance was nothing special, so how could they just waltz in to the valley?
Meanwhile, Austin was observing the guards just as they were eyeing him up and down. His eyebrows knitted in thought when he detected their power.
These men were all extremely powerful!
Each of them seemed stronger than Vinnie.
"These people are very powerful.
They must be the subordinates of Counselor Alex.
It's also possible that they are working for the Evil Shadow King.
It's troublesome to explain everything to them, and we're short on time.
The best way is to break in forcefully,"
Austin said to Caroline through spiritual sense.
Caroline glanced at him discreetly but otherwise didn't make it obvious that they were talking.
With a subtle incline of her head, she said, "Alright, let's go."
With that, Austin, along with Caroline and the demonic avatar, walked straight to the palace gate.
"Stop!
