Chapter 927: The Staunchest Ally
Qin Lie teleported to Terminator Sect directly through the large spatial transportation formation at Evil Infant Island.
There were a dozen or so Terminator Sect martial pract.i.tioners in groups of two and three around the teleportation formation. When he walked out, they all wore surprised looks on their faces.
For the past three years, Terminator Sect seldom interacted with members of the eight great Silver rank forces. Therefore, they seldom saw a stranger walking in through the large spatial teleportation formation these days.
“Where do you come from, friend?” a young Terminator Sect martial pract.i.tioner asked loudly.
“Flaming Sun Island.” Qin Lie smiled brightly and calmly before adding, “My name is Qin Lie.”
The dozen or so Terminator Sect martial pract.i.tioners who were chatting happily and carelessly with each other suddenly withdrew their smiles and turned serious.
“May I know if you are the Qin Lie of Flaming Sun Island?” The person who asked this question checked again with a serious look on his face.
He knew that Qin Lie had vanished from the Land of Chaos for three years. He also knew that the reason Terminator Sect didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the war against the evil races was all due to this man.
Therefore, he knew Qin Lie’s reputation very, very well.
“That’s right.” Qin Lie nodded before explaining, “I just returned not long ago.”
“Please wait for a moment,” he said respectfully.
He immediately contacted Shen Yue and explained the situation before Qin Lie.
A while later, he looked up at Qin Lie with a bit of astonishment. “Sister Yue is coming over immediately.”
Qin Lie nodded smilingly.
The Terminator Sect youths immediately broke into a whispering clamor.
“Why would Sister Yue rush over so urgently?”
“I heard that Sister Yue is very close to him…”
“That can’t be! Sister Yue is the pearl of Terminator Sect. How could he possibly win her affections?”
“Who knows?”
Shen Yue was their G.o.ddess. They adored her very, very much.
Qin Lie was just an outsider, so it was only natural for them to feel worried when they learned that Shen Yue was coming personally to meet Qin Lie.
These people were only at the Fulfillment Realm or Netherpa.s.sage Realm. Naturally, Qin Lie heard their whispers perfectly.
Qin Lie couldn’t help but crack an involuntary smile when he heard their words. He thought that they worried too much in this case.
It didn’t take long for Shen Yue to fly over to the spatial teleportation formation and land on the ground.
Three years had pa.s.sed, and Shen Yue had ascended from the late stage of the Fulfillment Realm to the early stage of the Fragmentation Realm. She was without a doubt the leader of the younger generation of the Land of Chaos.
She had surpa.s.sed Chu Li, Luo Chen, Du Xiangyang, Luo Kexin, Tian Yu, and all her other peers.
It made her s.h.i.+ne even brighter in everyone’s eyes.
Although the youths gathered around the teleportation formation thought fondly of her, they didn’t dare to look directly at their sparkling G.o.ddess when she showed up.
They all thought that the were unworthy of becoming someone important to the dazzling Shen Yue. They didn’t think that they could match her in terms of wits or status.
They didn’t even dare to look her in the eye.
Qin Lie was the only one who let out an easy laugh before calling out loudly, “Congratulations!”
“It’s really you!” Shen Yue was overjoyed to see him. After she looked at him closely, she shuddered slightly and let out an involuntary cry, “You’ve entered the Fragmentation Realm too?!”
When she first knew Qin Lie, she was at the middle stage of the Fulfillment Realm. At the time, Qin Lie was only at the Netherpa.s.sage Realm.
After several years had pa.s.sed, Qin Lie had actually reached the same realm as her. She couldn’t help but be terribly shocked by this.
He nodded first to confirm her guess before saying seriously, “I wish to meet the Forefather.”
Shen Yue looked troubled by his request.
“What’s wrong? Did I come at a bad time?” Qin Lie asked in astonishment.
“Let us talk inside.” Shen Yue forced a smile on her face before she led Qin Lie personally to the meeting hall of Terminator Sect.
It was only when her back was facing the youths that they dared to look at her and reveal the admiration in their eyes.
At the meeting hall of Terminator Sect.
“The Forefather is in a terminal seclusion? He won’t come out unless he enters the Void Realm? We can’t even disturb him during this period?” Qin Lie wore a heavy expression on his face.
Inside the hall, the husband and wife Xu Ran and Tong Zhenzhen, Lei Yan, Shen Kui and all the true decision makers of Terminator Sect were present.
“Old Monster Nan had entered seclusion the day you disappeared. He has stayed there for the three years since.” Xu Ran smiled helplessly and said, “That is why we cannot act in time even though the evil races are growing stronger and stronger every day. If we provoke the evil races and let Bhutto know that Old Monster Nan is at a critical juncture in his breakthrough, he will definitely gather all the forces he can muster and attack Terminator Sect. We won’t be able to resist him at all if that happens. After all, our relations.h.i.+p with the eight great Silver rank forces has suffered for your sake, so they would only watch from the sidelines while Terminator Sect was invaded by the evil races.”
“If the sect master hadn’t entered a terminal seclusion, we would’ve acted a long time ago. We wouldn’t have watched them slaughter the people of the Land of Chaos and do nothing about it,” Shen Kui explained.
They told him the difficulties Terminator Sect was currently facing.
“The reason I came today is to advise the Forefather to take up arms and join forces with us. I wish to eradicate the evil races from the surface of Spirit Realm.” Qin Lie pondered for a moment before saying, “Since the Forefather is in seclusion right now, can any of you make the decision?”
“Is your decision prompted by the Blue Ghoul Race and Earth Ghoul Race joint invasion on the Setting Sun Islands?” Lei Yan asked.
Before this, Flaming Sun Island had stayed their hand just like Terminator Sect had.
When Illusory Demon Sect was attacked by the Blue Ghoul Race, Flaming Sun Island was the closest force to them. However, they did nothing to help them.
Lei Yan thought that the only reason Qin Lie was requesting Terminator Sect’s help now was because the evil races had finally decided to invade Flaming Sun Island. He was forced to act because Flaming Sun Island was being attacked.
He thought that Qin Lie was purely motivated by his selfish desires to protect Flaming Sun Island.
“Even if the ghoul races chose to attack Black Voodoo Cult, Flaming Sun Island still wouldn’t stay silent,” Qin Lie said seriously. “I have been to the Heavenly Calamity Continent not long ago, and I have seen countless normal people being murdered cruelly by the evil races. Every village, every town and every city was slaughtered to the last. I actually couldn’t detect a single lifeforce despite travelling for thousands, even tens of thousands, of kilometers!”
He inhaled deeply before continuing, “Those who were still alive were gathered at Black jade City, Blue Flame City and Scattered Rain City and raised like livestock! They were killed, eaten or used as sacrifices whenever the evil races felt like it!”
When he closed his eyes and recalled the cruel scenes that he had seen on the Heavenly Calamity Continent, Qin Lie sighed deeply and said, “I cannot stand by and do nothing any longer!”
“Unless the Silver rank forces work together to fight this deadly threat... I highly doubt that we can defeat the evil races. This is especially true since Bhutto has constructed his four-level Soul Altar, and my senior brother is still stuck in his seclusion.” Lei Yan sighed.
“No, the Forefather doesn’t need to show up. I can deal with Bhutto,” Qin Lie said.
Xu Ran, Tong Zhenzhen, Lei Yan, Shen Kui, and Shen Yue all fell silent for a moment.
“I’m sorry? What did you just say just now? Can you repeat it once more?” Lei Yan asked uncertainly.
“I said I can deal with Bhutto,” Qin Lie said calmly.
“You can deal with Bhutto?” Shen Kui’s mind turned blank.
Xu Ran and the others were stunned too.
The meeting hall of Terminator Sect suddenly became silent.
A while later, Shen Kui said with a serious expression on his face, “Due to some special circ.u.mstances, the Void Realm martial pract.i.tioners of the Gold rank forces are forbidden from dipping their hands into the Land of Chaos. However, this also means that they’ll never lend the Land of Chaos a helping hand! Therefore, there is no way the Void Realm experts of the Central World will show up and help us resolve this crisis!”
“In reality, we aren’t the only ones who had informed the Gold rank forces of this. Ten Thousand Beast Mountain and Heavenly Sword Mountain have reported the same thing.” Xu Ran smiled bitterly before shaking his head. “However, they neither cared nor sent any Void Realm experts to help us kill Bhutto. I believe Bhutto himself knows about this, which is why he has acted as wantonly as he has.”
“The Gold rank forces of the Central World are forbidden from interfering with the matters of the Land of Chaos?” Qin Lie looked astonished. “Why’s that?”
He didn’t know that the Land of Chaos hid such a strange secret until now.
“I’m not in a position to tell you why. Someone will explain this to you when Flaming Sun Island becomes the greatest Silver rank force in the Land of Chaos.” Xu Ran tactfully excused himself before asking with dazzling eyes. “Tell me, do you really have someone who can take out Bhutto? Who is it?”
“He is a five-level Soul Altar expert and the chief commander of the Dark Shadow Race,” Qin Lie said.
Everyone’s spirits were raised instantly.
“Are you one hundred percent sure that he will act?” Xu Ran confirmed one last time.
“I guarantee this with my life!” Qin Lie said word by word.
Xu Ran, Tong Zhenzhen, Shen Kui, and the rest exchanged glances with one another.
A few seconds later, they nodded strongly towards Qin Lie while Lei Yan yelled, “F*ck, we’ve been itching to bash those evil races in the face for a long time already! I’ll a.s.semble my men and aid Flaming Sun Island right away!”
“We will partic.i.p.ate in the war immediately!” Shen Kui also announced in a powerful voice.
They had been paying attention to the war situation of the Land of Chaos all this time, and they had wanted to attack the evil races for a long time now. Unfortunately… no one could fight against the Void Realm expert Bhutto, so they had no choice but to endure.
Originally, they were planning to endure until Nan Zhengtian had exited his seclusion.
But now that Qin Lie had informed them that he could deal with Bhutto, they finally could no longer endure.
“The Heaven Ghoul clansmen are moving from the Heavenly Fissure Continent to the Heavenly Wither Continent. It would seem that they are cooperating with the Earth Ghoul Race and Blue Ghoul Race by attacking Heavenly Sword Mountain.” Shen Yue reported the latest news.
“I need to borrow your cross-continental teleportation formation and visit the Heavenly Wither Continent. I would like to obtain Heavenly Sword Mountain’s aid too,” Qin Lie said.
“Let me come with you.” Xu Ran frowned. “Heavenly Sword Mountain is different from us; the five Heavenly Swords of Heavenly Sword Mountain are not united. w.a.n.g Enze, Zu Xiang, and Yan Dong are shortsighted fellows who are biased against you because of your bloodline. They may not necessarily listen to your words.”
Three years ago, Qin Lie himself had seen w.a.n.g Enze working together with Qi Yang to reject Forefather Terminator’s suggestion and attack him for his bloodline.
That was why Flaming Sun Island only sold the Blazing Profound Bombs to Yan Baiyi and Luo Nan.
No matter how w.a.n.g Enze and the other two Heavenly Swords tried, they weren’t able to obtain a single Blazing Profound Bomb from Flaming Sun Island.
He knew that the trio probably wouldn’t be easy to deal with.
“Very well, then let us go together to Heavenly Sword Mountain,” Qin Lie said.
“You stay here, Zhenzhen. I will head to Heavenly Sword Mountain with Qin Lie. Those people are extremely biased towards any people who do not belong to their race. People who cultivate sword arts are so hard headed!” Xu Ran snorted coldly.
Qin Lie didn’t know about Tong Zhenzhen’s background. He only knew that she was definitely not human.
When he heard Xu Ran’s words, he suddenly thought that Tong Zhenzhen’s aura felt familiar to him.
The aura was obviously similar to the Rank Nine Vermillion Bird of Boluo Realm.
Qin Lie’s eyes turned as he shot Tong Zhenzhen a long look. He had an idea who she was now.
