BXBX NOVEL Chapter 472 The Azure Sea Clan
Blood-curdling cries of a winter dragon experiencing agonizing pain through every inch of his soul echoed for hundreds of miles to the point even the people in the nearest town to the Coldstorm of Hell could hear it.
The people were at first puzzled, wondering if they had imagined it. But after realizing that the people around them could also hear it, they were shocked, wondering who the Winter Dragon King was punishing and for what reason.
Only she would have the authority to do something like this to a Winter Dragon.
However, little did they know that these howls and cries of pain would continue on for days, weeks, months, years, and dozens of centuries till that certain Winter Dragon couldn\'t cry in pain anymore.
This incident would surely be marked in the archives of their history as the cruelest punishment granted by the Winter Dragon King. But nobody would ever really know the truth behind it, including the fact that a possible calamity in their realm whizzed past them.
Meanwhile, in the underwater palace of the Siren Queen, Viktor regained consciousness as he felt somebody trying to wake him up.
"Finally. There you are. You almost had me worried. What happened to you?" Yannah asked as her face loomed over his head.
Viktor blinked his eyes in confusion, not expecting to wake up to see her face, and wondered if his head was resting on her thighs due to how soft and silky it felt.
Viktor got up and found himself sitting on a bed in a very dark yet mystical azure chamber.
But what still baffled him other than finding himself in a foreign chamber was the fact that he suddenly collapsed for no reason and had the same question as Yannah in his mind.
"I…I am just as confused as you are. I mean, do you remember what happened before I fell unconscious?" Viktor asked as he looked at her.
Yannah waved her hand as she said, "It\'s weird. We were walking towards here, and suddenly you were sleeping against the wall. I didn\'t even hear you say anything. It\'s like one moment you were beside me, but the next moment you were not."
"So you never saw anything strange other than me sleeping against the wall? Like you didn\'t notice any earthquakes or anything?" Viktor asked to confirm if he hallucinated those things or not. It all felt like a dream to him and seemed foggy in his mind.
Yannah gave him a strange look as she asked, "Earthquakes? Are you sure you didn\'t drink anything strong? I doubt that poison before would make you see things."
Viktor softly chuckled, realizing that he sounded a bit silly. But still, in his mind, he felt that something definitely happened though he couldn\'t understand what it was.
He could still remember the throbbing sensation he felt in his mind and the feeling of his mind getting pulled by something.
"Anyway, don\'t worry about it. I already checked your body and nothing seems to be wrong with you," Yannah said as she sucked her finger.
Viktor squinted his eyes as he asked, "Wait…don\'t tell me you tasted my blood again?"
Yanna seductively caressed his cheek as she looked into his eyes and whispered, "Why not? I get to taste your delicious blood while making sure you are alright."
Viktor smiled as he held her dainty hand, "Then shall we get down to business?"

Meanwhile, back on Earth, there existed a very secret region that was the abode of witches and mages.
No ordinary humans like Taya or billions of humans on the planet knew about it. Even if somebody told anybody of its existence, they would laugh it off as a joke.
This region was one huge island that spanned a hundred thousand miles. And just like any island, it was surrounded by a vast ocean. Anybody who was standing on this island wouldn\'t be able to spot any land, even at the end of the horizon. All they would see was the boundless and beautiful sparkling ocean.
One might then ask why ordinary people never discovered the existence of such a huge island since it was the 21st century, and surely there didn\'t exist any place on Earth that humans have never explored.
However, none of the ordinary mortals on this planet can ever come anywhere near this island. Even if some were to fly on a plane, the plane would never magically pass through this area.
This weird phenomenon was the reason this region was named the "Devil\'s Ocean". Those who believe in superstitions say that nobody can pass through this region since the devil himself lives there. And those who try to visit the place, again and again, would get swallowed up by the Devil himself.
But little did Taya realize that all of this was just bullshit the moment she arrived on this beautiful massive island. Nyissa brought her here along with Vanessa and Umi.
After Vanessa\'s suggestion that they should find Viktor as soon as possible before Talia does something sly, Nyissa agreed to visit her mother\'s clan, called the Azure Sea Clan…an upper-class clan of mages who played a huge role in looking over the entire planet.
Their influence was enough to reach any point in the world, and all the other clans of mages and witches would think twice before going against them.
But the main reason the Azure Sea Clan was renowned was that their bloodline would very rarely produce geniuses who were born to be Oracles. In other words, they had the power to divine things or learn truths that normally cannot be obtained even by expert odic users.
Some could divine the future, some divined the truth and lies of people, while some divined the whereabouts of people or even treasures.
And right now, all four of them were standing before a huge pagoda where inside it was the most powerful Oracle in the Azure Sea Clan, Maura Wrym, who was also Nyissa\'s mother.
