Tang Shaoyang's vision blackened, he could not see anything. It felt like his body was floating in nothingness. Then he heard the notification in his head.
[Fifth Portal's main objective has been aborted because of an unexpected circumstance!]
[You have passed the fifth portal!]
[The reward has been canceled because the objective is aborted before the designated time!]
[Your bond with Rumru the Black Dragon is not strong enough to bring him with you to the Earth! Rumru the Black Dragon's spirit has been sealed!]
After the notification, he then appeared back to HZ Bay. Tang Shaoyang immediately opened the status screen to see his spirit lists.
————————
Contracted Spirit (4/15): [Karan - The Great Warrior] [Zaneos - The Demon Swordsman] [Zowen - The Lightning Magus] [Rumru - The Black Dragon] (Sealed)
————————
He tried to click on the red word (Sealed), hoping it would tell him how to unseal the seal. Rumru was the biggest harvest from Arkania Continent, but now the spirit was sealed, it said.
"Damn!" Tang Shaoyang stomped the ground pretty hard.
Thump!
The asphalt cracked and it shocked everyone around him, "What's wrong?" A familiar concerned voice asked him immediately.
He turned toward the voice, it was Elin's voice. He then scanned the surroundings and found out that all his women from Arkania Continent were here with him.
Delia, Elin, Selena, and Arina were coming with him. This could be said that their bond was deeper than his bond with Rumru. That should be the logical reason as to why they could come with him back to Earth.
Aside from his women, Kairu and Wen were here too. This was confusing for him, he thought their bond was not that deeper. Especially compared to Rumru, they had been sharing their story.
"Heal him!" But this was not the time to think about that. Wen was in critical condition after the clash against the Clown God. He needed intermediate healing.
Arina and Selena nodded their heads and worked together to heal the Jade Eagle. Tang Shaoyang scanned the surroundings to find who else went back to Earth with him.
He was surprised that no one else aside from his original team, his four women, and the two beastmen came with him. He made the contract not only with Kairu and Wen, Jacky and Frost also. Not only them, but their tribe made an oath to follow him.
Aside from the beastmen, the Ropina Villagers had made an oath too to follow him. If they had to talk about the bond, their bonds should be deeper than the beastmen but only Elin and Delia came with him. Confusion hit him, he did not know how this thing worked.
Tang Shaoyang was aware this was not the right time to think about that. He should arrange the thing since Kairu's presence would scare his people. He then turned toward the Flaming Lion.
Kairu was looking around warily at the foreign environment. He just stood there as he noticed that humans were looking at him with fear. He was about to roar at these people, but fortunately, Tang Shaoyang came at the right moment.
"Don't need to be afraid, he is friendly, an ally," Tang Shaoyang tapped the lion buffed arm to prove Kairu was harmless.
The one he left behind was the soldiers' family. He did not want to bring them into the portal since they would be just a burden for them. Leaving them behind was the right choice in this scenario unless they could restart from the first portal.
Kairu looked toward Tang Shaoyang, he was about to ask what happened and where this was. Tang Shaoyang spoke first, "Let's talk later, for the time being just stay away from them."
Zhang Mengyao and Wei Xi were not here to help him, so he had to do this by himself or…
He looked toward Cao Yuntai, Gu Yingjie, Liang Suyin, and Fan Rui. Soon he noticed Fan Rui brought a girl with him too, she was the girl he met in Ropina Village.
"Cao Yuntai!" He called the ex-soldier as the latter immediately came toward him. The older man seemed to miss his family and badly wanted to meet them, but his call prevented him from meeting his family early.
"Yes, Boss!" Cao Yuntai reported and waited for the order.
"Explain the situation to the people, they seem to trust you more than me," Tang Shaoyang noticed that the soldier's family was also afraid of him, not only the Flaming Lion.
The older man noticed that too, that was understandable after what happened back then. Cao Yuntai replied with "Yes'' and came back toward Fan Rui, Gu Yingjie, and Liang Suyin. The four immediately did their work.
At this moment, Kang Xue's father and mother came out from the crowd. They approached him despite being scared of the tall Kairu. They avoided making eye contact with the lion beastmen and looked straight at him.
"What happened? Where's my son and my daughter?" Mu Liqiu was panicked that only a little came from the portal. The old man sharply gazed at him, waiting for the answer.
"We will talk later," Tang Shaoyang pointed his thumb toward Kairu next to him, "But Xue and Kang Zian should be safe."
"What do you mean they should be safe?" Mu Liqiu grabbed Tang Shoayang's wrist, "She is your wife, and Zian is your people. You should be responsible for them!" Her voice cracked, was about to sob as negative thoughts filled her head.
"I know! But can you look around? I need to settle the situation first before everyone is panicking. They just come from the other side of the world, so please understand the situation first," Tang Shaoyang easily pulled off the grip from his wrist, "You are not the only one who wants to know about your family members but the others too!" He pointed at the crowd behind the old couple.
"Please understand the situation or you will cause chaos for making a tantrum. You were their leader so they would follow you if you make a tantrum now," He looked toward Kang Jiayi, "They are my people now, so it's better to not use force to make you guys listen to me now."
Kang Jiayi got the read as he hugged his wife immediately to calm her down. Fortunately, Mu Liqiu understood the situation, so she did not do something stupid to make the situation worse than it was.
Tang Shaoyang then walked back to Wen's side. The Jade Eagle suffered from his clash against Carlsen, fortunately, both healers were experts in their field so the two stabilized Wen's injuries shortly.
"So this is your world?" Kairu asked Tang Shaoyang. He did not look worried for Wen at all as the Flaming Lion was more curious about his surroundings than his friend.
Tang Shaoyang ignored the lion beastmen and asked the two healers, "How is it?" Wen was unconscious but the bleeding had stopped. The two also had restored his wings and exploded eyeballs. But he wanted to know the Jade Eagle's condition in and out.
"He's fine, he will awake in ten to fifteen minutes," Selena wiped off the sweat on his forehead. Restoring the missing body parts was harder than healing. She and Arina were a little exhausted after that ride.
Tang Shaoyang let out a relieved sigh. He then looked toward the other crowd. Kang Jiayi was helping Cao Yuntai to settle them down.
