"Wow! The dragon has become smaller, Big Brother Cain!" Ayla exclaimed excitedly before running towards Nix.
Sigh!
'I guess I think too much.' Elion sighed as he was relieved and even felt a little guilty towards Cain as he had thought badly about him for a moment.
"Hahaha… Come here, Elion. Keep an eye on your sister so that she won't play too much." Cain laughed as he watched Ayla trying to get up on Nix's back as she climbed from Nix's head, moving slowly towards his body through Nix's neck.
"By the way, I left some clothes for you both on the table inside that house. Treat it like your own while you're here. I have something important to take care of, but if you need me, just shout my name loudly."
Cain explained before he disappeared and appeared in front of a small house that Fenix had built for his own.
"Fenix!" Cain shouted as he busted the door with a kick, sending the door flying away.
Fenix was startled and opened his eyes abruptly before realizing that it was Cain this time who disturbed him from his sleeping.
"What is it, My Lord?" Fenix rubbed his eyes as he sat on the bed and looked at Cain with sleepy eyes.
"Do you need help waking up, or will you handle it yourself?" Cain asked as he snapped his fingers, creating small white flames that made Fenix shudder.
Smack!
Fenix slapped himself and immediately stood straight like a soldier. "I'm not sleepy at all, My Lord."
"Good. Let's get to work now. Go wash yourself up first if you want to take a bath first." Cain retracted the white flames and waved his hand before disappearing from Fenix's sight.
"I will take a bath first then." Fenix saluted as he fist bumped and bowed slightly, as he knew that even if Cain wasn't there, he must know everything that happened in here.
After waiting for a few minutes in the outside world, Cain immediately summoned Fenix and reminded Ayla and Elion to stay there for a while since the difference in time was 30x faster inside the beast space.
Subsequently, Cain and Fenix set off as Cain summoned Nix and instructed him to head to the west.
Cain's first target was the force behind the arrogant man who tried to stop him in the Nightshade Pagoda and even insulted Ayla and Elion right in front of him.
After he asked the waitress about the arrogant young man, he knew that the young man before was from the Huo family, one of the top families in this Low-level World.
He was even informed that Huo Family's patriarch was a strong awakener who had reached Mid-level Conqueror Rank.
Moreover, the Huo Family itself was already a strong top family even if you don't count the patriarch, as they had another strong awakener who had also reached Mid-level Conqueror Rank and a few in the Low-level Conqueror Ranks.
That's why the arrogant young man was full of himself, as he was the young master of the Huo Family.
After flying for almost half an hour at Nix's top speed, Cain instructed Nix to slow down as he felt that they should've been close enough to the Huo Family's place.
Huo Family' place wasn't inside the city or somewhere crowded, as rumor said that Huo Family's location was once a village, and Huo Family originated from there.
After a few minutes, Cain finally heard the notifications he had been waiting for.
[Ding! Detected a Peak-level Dominator Rank Awakener 10km ahead.]
[Ding! Detected a High-level Dominator Rank Awakener 10 km ahead.]
[Ding! Detected a High-level Dominator Rank Awakener 10 km ahead.]
[Ding! Detected a High-level Dominator Rank Awakener 10 km ahead.]
…
Numerous notifications from the system flooded in his mind as he went closer to the Huo Family's residence.
His detected range had become wider after his beast master's rank upgraded to the Lord Rank.
From 4 km range when he was still at Diamond Rank Beast Master to 10 km range at the moment.

After Nix flew 3 more kilometers, Cain suddenly instructed Nix to stop and landed at a nearby open field as they were in the middle of the jungle.
Cain then made a clone as he waved his hand and said while casually leaning against a massive tree, "Fenix, go with my clone. I'll wait here for your success."
Looking at his surroundings, Cain found a really nice big tree around there and immediately sat below the tree as he would be waiting for them in here.
In case there would be a big battle, Cain already prepared his clone to be sacrificed, as it actually didn't matter that much for his clone to be dead except that there would be a cooldown with that specific clone.
Having clone ability was due to him possessing the 9-Tailed Heavenly Demon Fox and having awakened till the ninth tail.
The amount of clones and strength between clones depended on how many tails were awakened.
The strength of the clone was related to how many tails someone had awakened because if they had only awakened the fourth tail, they could only make a clone who had 40% of their strength.
The amount of clones that they could make was also the same as the amount of tails they had awakened.
So, in his case, Cain could actually summon 9 clones with the strength varying between 10% to 90% of his strength.
Subsequently, Fenix and his clone set off towards the Huo family's residence by running as Cain put Nix back inside the beast space to let him play with Ayla and Elion.
"Look, someone is coming." One of the guards exclaimed, reminding the others to not neglect their duties.
When Cain and Fenix were about to arrive at the residence, they saw five guards standing in front of the big gates that had an intricate plaque with the red words 'Huo Family' hanging above the doors.
"Stop!"
