Chapter 23: Strongest Being

It's over three months since the three brothers left their kingdom to explore the world, so far they are only roaming in the human continent.

The Demi-Human kingdoms on the surface may say that humans are welcome, but unless you are not some high official on a kingdom, then there is no way that you will be welcome in their territory

And the same goes for Human Kingdoms.

A war between humans and Demi-humans has long taken in the past and the deaths were over 100 of thousands, so the hatred against each other is still going on.

The three brothers have changed their clothing style to simple civilians and are exploring kingdoms and forests.

In their 3 monthly journeys, they truly come to know just how ruthless the forest is like the more they go deep, the more dangerous things get.

Meeting a giant one-eyed demon was already hard but soon they also meet Giant One Eye Demon with Six Hands which was hard to defeat.

With each passing week, they are learning something new and they come to realize one thing, they are not so much strong as they expected themselves to be.

Right now the three brothers are exploring the deep region of the forest as they heard that there has been some signs of demons around the Tao Kingdom

The Tao Kingdom is the 2nd largest kingdom after the Xiong Kingdom among human kingdoms and is the 2nd strongest kingdom.

The kingdom is situated at the upper western northern side of the continent and it is famous for its "three heavenly peaks".

As the three brothers walked deeper and deeper into the region, they could see some signs of battle

"It seems like there has been a battle just recently, let's follow the trail" Xiong Bo said as he looked at the leaves and branches that are broken down.

The ground also has some scratches

"LAN!!!!!"

*BOOOOOM*

"what was that?" Xiong Delun asked as he heard a name and then a strong wave of wind, it's clear that a battle is going on somewhere or it has now ended.

All three brothers nodded and started running towards the source of noise and soon they come to an open place or a place that has all trees destroyed due to battle.

"Elder Brother, look there" Xiong Qiang said as he pointed his finger at the man who is on the ground on his knees and hugging something.

That man has golden armor all over his body even including his hands and he also has a helmet on his head.

As the three brothers walked closer, they could see the face of this man

He has a mustache and also a small beard, and he is holding a small girl of age around 10 - 12

*noise*

The man heard the noise from the step of Xiong Qiang and glared at them, he said: "You Demons, I told you didn't I, if you dare hurt my daughter i will wipe you all out and yet after poisoning my daughter, you still dared to show your face!!!!"

"Dear Sir, you have misunderstood, we are no demons.

Due to the noise, we came here looking at what has happened and it seems like your daughter is poisoned, don't worry, as i have some medical knowledge also.

Please allow me to take a look at her" Xiong Delun said as he took a step towards the unknown armored man.

Right now, the three brothers are in simple outfits- trouser and shirt, so its hard to believe for the armored man that they can help him

"YOU THINK I WILL FALL FOR SUCH CHEAP WORDS?!!" The armored man shouted and released a big wave of Qi that shocked the three brothers

Not only that, but the man is now covered in golden lights and his whole body seems to be in some type of golden flames, but he is not burning.

It didn't take long for Xiong Delun and the other two brothers to understand just how strong this man is in front of them.

The armored man is releasing his Aura or Qi from his body and doing this is no small thing as even Xiong Bo needs to be fully focused to emit his Qi, but this man in front of them is easily releasing his Qi as if its nothing.

"Father.."

The girl in the arms of an armored man called, the man stopped releasing his Qi and asked: "What is it, my dear daughter?"

"Father... it hurts a lot...

Am I dying?" The little girl asked her father

Tears started falling from the armored man, but still, he smiled and said "No way my daughter, how can heaven be so cruel to such a lovely girl.

Your father is the strongest being under heaven, your father will cure you in no time. Just believe in my words"

The little girl smiled to her father's words, she kept her smile as she falls unconscious

The armored man didn't say anything for a while, he then asked "YOU, you said that you have the knowledge to cure her right?"

Xiong Delun took a deep breath as he can feel that the air around them is changing, The armored man claims to be the strongest being under the heaven and he said it to his daughter who is dying right now

There is no way that a father would lie to his dying daughter, this means that this man has the strength to back his words and if something will go wrong, what will happen?

"I may not be the best doctor, but I will still use my all knowledge to cure you daughter. You rest assured" Xiong Delun said in a calm tone

"If you fail, mark my words... I will kill you all without any hesitation"

"There is no need to think so far, please calm down"

"Then, please..."

The man bowed his head to Xiong Delun

"There is no need to bow your head as helping others is the right thing to do" Xiong Delun said as he put his hands on his shoulder
