As soon as Irving finished speaking, Anna tore the teleportation scroll. The mont the scroll was torn, Irving felt a violent shift in the space around his body. He and Anna were quickly transported to the Night Blades headquarters.
The location they arrived at was the sa place where Benjamin had fought against the Night Blades Elders earlier. However, Benjamin and the Elders were no longer there; only so ordinary Night Blades mbers remained. Upon seeing Irving, the faces of these ordinary mbers were filled with terror. They all knew that they would not stand a chance against Irving.
Irving, however, was not in the mood to deal with these ordinary Night Blades mbers. "Where is Benjamin?" he asked Anna.
Anna was extrely anxious. After surveying the surroundings, she replied, "If Benjamin isn't here, it ans he chose to escape. He should be running deeper into the Night Blades headquarters."
Irving nodded and quickly moved forward with Anna. Before long, they encountered a large number of Night Blades Elders. The Elders also spotted Irving and Anna at the sa ti, and both sides imdiately engaged in combat.
Although Irving had not fully recovered, he held a significant psychological advantage against the Night Blades Elders. His reputation was formidable, and no Elder dared to confront him directly. After all, several Night Blades Elders had already fallen to his hands.
The Elders could only work together to hinder Irving's progress. However, their attempts were not very successful. Irving was determined to do whatever it took to rescue his companion. Thus, he and Anna managed to repel several Night Blades Elders. They forced the Elders back into another area, successfully clearing the way.
When Benjamin saw Irving, a smile finally appeared on his face. At that mont, Benjamin was in terrible condition. He had sustained significant injuries during the recent battle.
The Night Blades Elders had used a considerable amount of dark magic to eliminate Benjamin. These dark spells not only injured Benjamin but also eroded his soul.
"You finally made it! I thought I would never see you again!" Benjamin said weakly.
"Don't say that! How could you think you'd never see us again? We're the best of companions! We will work together to completely eradicate the Night Blades!" Irving quickly replied.

Benjamin just smiled and fell silent again.
At that mont, Anna hurriedly said, "What should we do now? The Night Blades Elders may have been temporarily driven back, but they certainly won't give up easily. We need to find a way to escape from here as soon as possible."
Irving naturally agreed with Anna's assessnt. He imdiately took out the Staff of Calamity.
"Think back to how you felt when you used the blank scroll. I will use my staff to simulate the teleportation effect of the blank scroll. Rember, you must concentrate; if your mind is not focused, we could fail the teleportation and might be trapped here forever."
At Irving's reminder, Anna quickly gathered her focus. She began to recall her thoughts when she had used the blank scroll.
At the tip of Irving's staff, an illusory blank scroll began to form. The mont the scroll appeared, Irving activated the power of the Taikoo Fla Pearl. This power enveloped Irving in a silvery light, which he then spread over Benjamin and Anna.
"Get ready! I'm about to start the teleportation!" Irving warned his companions.
The silver light began to coalesce, gradually forming a passageway. Once the passageway was fully ford, Irving and the others would be able to leave. However, during the formation of the passage, Irving remained on high alert, knowing that he might be attacked by the Night Blades Elders at any mont.
anwhile, the Night Blades Elders were contemplating their next move. Although they knew Irving was likely about to leave the Night Blades headquarters, none of them dared to attack him directly.
Not far from the Elders, Shadow Celestial was also deep in thought. He certainly wished to eliminate Irving, but he understood that it was impossible to completely take him down at that mont. He needed to wait for a more opportune ti. Additionally, he had sustained significant injuries during the previous battle and needed so ti to stabilize his condition.
After thinking for a mont, Shadow Celestial slowly said, "Irving is indeed quite lucky! My current condition is not good, so I cannot act directly. If I don't make a move, then the Night Blades Elders likely won't act either. So let them go!"
After saying this, Shadow Celestial transford into a cloud of black mist and departed.
The subordinates of Shadow Celestial finally breathed a sigh of relief. They actually did not wish to have a final confrontation with Irving here, as they knew they would be caught in the crossfire.
One of Shadow Celestial's loyal subordinates quickly relayed his orders to the Night Blades Elders. Upon learning of Shadow Celestial's command, the Elders finally relaxed.
"In that case, let's not interfere with Irving's actions. After he and his companions leave, we will set up new magical formations around the Night Blades headquarters. The new magical formations will ensure that they cannot locate the headquarters directly," one of the Night Blades Elders said slowly.
The other Elders nodded in agreent. Although the Night Blades headquarters had faced two attacks in a short period of ti, it was clear that the attackers did not know the exact location of the headquarters. They had rely arrived at the headquarters through so form of tracking.
As long as the Night Blades set up so magical formations around the headquarters to ensure its position could not be tracked, Irving and his companions would not be able to easily break into the Night Blades headquarters again.
The Night Blades Elders' next task was to keep a close watch on Irving. They needed to ensure that he left quickly and did not continue to pose a threat within the headquarters.
Irving was unaware of the Night Blades' final decision. Therefore, he remained vigilant until the passage was fully ford.
After about ten minutes, the passage was completely generated. Although Irving was still puzzled and did not understand why the Night Blades Elders had not attempted to stop him, now that the passage was fully ford, he had no reason to stay any longer.
"Let's hurry through the passage! Once we cross it, we can return to the real world!" Irving said, and then led Anna and Benjamin into the passage.
The mont the three of them entered the passage, they were teleported to the entrance of the Angel Guild headquarters. At the sa ti, the passage completely collapsed.
After Anna and Benjamin returned to the real world, they let out a long sigh of relief. They felt that it was truly fortunate to have survived this ti. Jas, Nick, and Vicky also rushed out to greet them.
They looked at Anna and Benjamin's conditions. Although neither of them was in great shape, at least they were still alive.
"Everyone, take a good rest! Our previous actions didn't achieve much success, and I think it's because we weren't fully prepared. For the next few days, we can't act recklessly again. Although Aron hasn't been rescued yet, I believe he won't be easily killed. Shadow Celestial will certainly want to use Aron to achieve his own goals," Irving said slowly to the group.
Although the others weren't completely trusting of Irving's judgnt, they had no choice but to follow his orders. Aron was completely under Shadow Celestial's control, and their next step was to recover and find a way to rescue him.
Jas and Nick went off to deal with other matters concerning the Angel Guild, as they were currently in the best condition among everyone. Irving stayed at the Angel Guild headquarters. He needed to ensure that Anna, Benjamin, and Vicky were all in good shape.
The erosion of chaotic power within Anna had not been fully resolved, and after a series of battles, her condition had worsened. Irving felt he had to seek the help of the knowledge fairy once again.
"Your physical state has beco worse than before. You can't act recklessly any longer. What you need to do is rest and make sure your condition doesn't deteriorate further," Irving said to Anna with a calm expression.
Anna nodded. She knew that Irving was right. The reason she had acted rashly earlier was that she had received so astonishing news.
"When do you plan to rescue Aron? I think we should do it as soon as possible. Even if Shadow Celestial won't kill him, the longer he stays with Shadow Celestial, the greater the risks he faces," Anna asked Irving in a low voice.
Irving thought for a mont. He actually couldn't give a very certain answer, as he needed to understand what kind of sche Shadow Celestial was planning. Only with a way to counter Shadow Celestial's sches could Irving make plans for their next actions.
"I will rescue him as soon as possible! But you should know that Shadow Celestial is a very cunning individual. He won't let our plans succeed easily. So before we rescue Aron, we must have a sufficiently cautious and complete plan. Developing such a plan will take a considerable amount of ti, so you shouldn't be too anxious," Irving replied.
After hearing Irving's response, Anna felt a bit disappointed. However, she had to admit that Irving's words were indeed correct. In the end, Anna could only nod in silence.
