Tai Jian intercepted

At this moment in Tie Hongchen's camp, the golden emissary and his clone were now held captive by Tie Hongchen." Golden emissary clone, I can give you a chance to devour your main body," Tie Hongchem said with a smile on her face as she sat on her throne staring at her captives." What do you want?" The clone of the golden phoenix emissary asked with its eyes lowered. No one knew what it was thinking." She is deceiving you. You cannot devour the main body because you are just a part of my consciousness," the main body said." Nothing is impossible. You thought that it was impossible for your clone to revolt against you but you never thought this would happen. Impossibility is never part of my vocabulary so get that out of your head. We were able to get rid of your influence on your clone so how can we fail to severe the link between the both of you. To Di Yi you are just a chess piece and he would probably not accept you back so why not weigh the options that you have and you will realise that I am probably not your enemy and Di Yi is no longer the senior brother you once knew," Tie Hongchen said her face not showing any emotional fluctuations." You are naive if you think that you can actually devour him. Even if you devour me you can never get rid of the shadows control. You are part of the shadows so you can never leave. Darkness must always exist," the main body of the golden emissary said. Tie Hongchen did not rebuke him rather she just closed her eyes and took a deep breathe after which she opened her eyes. When her eyes were opened her aura dissipated and she became like a normal human." You are right," these words shocked both the main body and the clones of the golden emissary." It's good that you have some self awareness," the main body of the golden emissary snorted coldly at this." But you are also wrong. I also once thought that I would encase myself in this dark night forever and never get rid of the shadows but here I am," Tie Hongchen said as her aura once again changed and a red armour adorned her. Both the main body and the clone turned to stare at each other. How could they fail to recognise the armour that Tie Hongchen had adorned." The red emissary!" The duo exclaimed. One of the three mysteries of the shadow guild. The seven emissaries are known according to their strength and the golden emissary is claimed to be the strongest beneath the master of the shadow guild but those of the inner cycle know that many years ago the former leader of the shadow had two disciples; Di Yi and the red emissary. No one knew of the real name of the red emissary apart from the fact that she had the surname Tie but her strength was recognised by all but an incident happened and she became one of the taboo figures of the shadow guild. All information concerning her were sealed and since then the post of the red emissary was removed which led to the number of emissaries being reduced to seven. Rumours say that she was crippled by the former master because she had decided to betray the guild but no elaborate explanations were offered in concern to this so the appearance of the armour shocked the duo and for a moment they were at a loss." What is your relationship with the red emissary?" The golden emissary asked with his eyes closer." So you do know her? I thought that you had forgotten about her?" Tie Hongchen casually said." Who would dare to forget such a legendary figure such as her.' If I can only live in the shadows then what is the difference between a myself and a corpse. I'd rather escape through the gates of hell than hide' ,who would not remember such sayings in the shadow guild?" The golden phoenix emissary said." She is my mother," Tie Hongchen answered with a proud expression. Her mother was indeed the last red emissary of the shadow guild and had even escaped from the shadow guild becoming the first person to free herself from the control of the shadows and shaping her own destiny choosing to fall in love with a mortal and living in the light illuminating his life rather than living in the shadows always hidden. Tie Hongchen has always been proud of her mother and although she never saw her her father always told her stories of her mother. In order for her father to tell her stories of her mother Tie Hongchen was forced to study swordsmanship and military strategy from a young age. She worked hard in everything that she did just so as to listen to stories concerning her mother but it was only later that she learnt that her mother once belonged to the shadow guild. Even her late father doesn't know about the fact that Tie Hongchen had managed to learn of her mother's bitter past. Tie Hongchen had once found a diary that her mother had left behind when she was searching her room against her father's wishes. She was severely punished for this but it was also because of this that she managed to dig out her mother's dark past." How can you be her daughter? Didn't she die many years ago? She was personally executed by the master back then,how can she still be alive?" The golden emissary asked. According to Di Yi,the red emissary was personally executed by the former master so how can she still be alive? This was unbelievable. It was the case of a dead person coming back to life." If you are her daughter then I guess I can only accept my fate," the golden emissary said. His voice was fill with an unwillingness and helplessness. At this moment he knew that there was nothing that could help him salvage the situation. His fate at this moment was sealed and there was nothing to do about it. Tie Hongchen's background was indeed terrifying and her strength was also unquestionable. The golden emissary could not help but drown in despair as it seemed that he was the first person who would be devoured by his clone. Meanwhile Tai Jian who was on his way to the main base of the shadow suddenly felt a terrifying attack coming towards him and instinctively took a step sideways and managed to dodge the attack. If he would have been a moment slower then he might've lost his arm or even got himself split into two. After dodging the attack Tai Jian turned around and waved his hand sending an attack towards a certain point in the void. Two figures appeared out of nowhere and stared at Tai Jian. If one observed carefully one would see a deep gash in their hands which was sealed using their mana." Tai Jian,master wants to meet you," one of the two figures said." It seems your master doesn't really value your lives," Tai Jian said.
