Chapter 1604: The Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect, Tan Chi
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were only two Saint Stage powerhouses in the Dark Nether Sect. Naturally, it was impossible they would keep watch on Bai Li Hong.
The reason Bai Li Hong did not leave was due to Feng Wu Dao and the others. All this time, he had been trying to come up with ways to rescue Feng Wu Dao and the others so they could leave the Dark Nether Sect.
However, he did not have any chance at all because it seemed like the Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect who had brought him back had guessed his intention. Due to this reason, he would sometimes take the initiative to check on him. Even if the Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect did not keep an eye on him, it would still be difficult for him to save Feng Wu Dao and the others.
This was because there were many Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses guarding the place where they imprisoned the slaves. Once Bai Li Hong approached the area, the Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses would be able to sense it. He would be able to escape alone, but it was impossible to save Feng Wu Dao and the others.
“Duan Ling Tian? The Interim Advisor of Situ Clan?” Bai Li Hong’s heart jolted. He was pleasantly surprised when he found out the name of the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan that had spread in the entire Windfall Nation.
“Could it be Junior Brother? He has come to Windfall Nation?” Bai Li Hong was almost certain the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan was his junior brother when he found out his name was Duan Ling Tian.
This was because he had told his Junior Brother before that he would go to Windfall Nation if he had the chance. Bai Li Hong had indeed come to Windfall Nation. Moreover, he had even brought Feng Wu Dao and the others with him.
Unfortunately, the people from Dark Nether Sect had appeared suddenly during their journey and captured them. They had no other choice but to stay here.
“However, how did Junior Brother manage to become the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan? Although the Situ Clan is a seventh-rate force like the Dark Nether Sect, there’s no doubt they’re a lot more powerful! The Dark Nether Sect only has two Saint Stage Devil Cultivators guarding it!”
Bai Li Hong had long heard about the Situ Clan in Windfall Nation before coming here. As for the Dark Nether Sect, he had never heard about it before.
Based on this alone, one could see the Dark Nether Sect was far from being comparable to the Situ Clan.
However, his junior brother had actually become the Interim Advisor of such a powerful seventh-rate clan?
“Junior Brother really surprises me sometimes.” Bai Li Hong was certain the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan was his junior brother because of the age of the Interim Advisor, not because he had mentioned about coming to Windfall Nation to his junior brother previously.
The Interim Advisor of Situ Clan was not even 40 years old. This was similar to his junior brother!
“Junior Brother’s progress is really ridiculous! Even Lady Feng from Drift Blaze Sect lost to him in the end.” Bai Li Hong sighed emotionally.
He had never heard of Lady Feng when he was still in the Moon Illumination Sect of the Nine Sect Alliances. However, after arriving in Windfall Nation, these two words constantly entered his ears. It represented the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation in Windfall Nation. Bai Li Hong was in shock for a long time when he found out the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation Windfall Nation was a young woman.
It was not that he looked down women, but women were generally born weaker than men in many aspects. Without any innate advantage, a woman who had such achievements and high innate talent was terrifying.
At that time, he had wondered if Lady Feng from Drift Blaze Sect or his junior brother had a higher innate talent. As of now, he had finally gotten his answer.
Duan Ling Tian, the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, had defeated Lady Feng from Drift Blaze Sect. He had replaced her and become the 23rd powerhouse at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage in the Heaven Ranking.
‘Since Junior Brother is in the Situ Clan and holds the position of Interim Advisor, I’m sure Situ Clan won’t reject him if he asks them for help,’ Bai Li Hong thought to himself and sighed in relief.
“They’ll finally be saved.” The ‘they’ Bai Li Hong mentioned, naturally, referred to Feng Wu Dao and the others.
Previously, the situation had seemed bleak. However, he could see a ray of hope now. This ray of hope came from none other than his junior brother who was also the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan.
‘The most important thing now is to find an excuse for me to head to the capital. Then, I must find a way to get in touch with Junior Brother.’ Soon after, Bai Li Hong began to plan in his heart.
“Although I can leave without any trouble, the Vice Sect Leader will surely vent his anger and humiliation on them if I leave… At that time, even if I manage to come back with help, it’ll be a wonder if they’re still alive. If something happens to them, what’s the point of me looking for help?” Bai Li Hong knew he must find an excuse that would make the Dark Nether Sect allow him to make a trip to the capital of Windfall Nation.
“That’s it!” Soon after, Bai Li Hong finally came up with an idea. He immediately went to look for the Vice Sect Leader who had caught him, Feng Wu Dao, and the others and brought them back to the Dark Nether Sect. Without beating around the bush, he said, “Vice Sect Leader Tan, I want to go to the capital of Windfall Nation to buy materials for Saint Inscriptions.”
“To buy materials for Saint Inscriptions?” Upon hearing Bai Li Hong’s words, Vice Sect Leader Tan of Dark Nether Sect, a slight but sturdy old man who was wearing a black long robe, frowned. “What materials do you want? Tell me, and I’ll help you search for it in the storage. If we don’t have it in the storage, I’ll send my men out to buy them.”
“Vice Sect Leader Tan, I’m not sure what kind of materials I need so I must go out personally…” When Bai Li Hong reached this part of the sentence, he noticed Vice Sect Leader Tan’s face had turned grave. It was as though he was about to reject him.
Bai Li Hong quickly continued speaking, “The materials I need are all for Four Star Saint Inscriptions… I have a feeling I’ve already arrived at the juncture of becoming a Four Star Saint Inscription Master. If I have materials to experiment on, I’ll be able to become a Four Star Saint Inscription Master in the shortest time possible!”
Four Star Saint Inscription Master!
One must admit that Bai Li Hong’s words were indeed useful and tempting. At the very least, it was enough to make Vice Sect Leader Tan’s eye light up. His face was filled with delight.
Their Dark Nether Sect did not have any Four Star Saint Inscription Master at all. As for Three Star Saint Inscription Master, they only had two, including Bai Li Hong.
“If our Dark Nether Sect has a Four Star Saint Inscription Master…” The moment Tan Chi, the Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect thought about this, excitement filled his heart. His eyes when he looked at Bai Li Hong also became much friendlier. “When do you plan to leave? I’ll go with you.”
“Tomorrow.” Bai Li Hong was not surprised about Tan Chi wanting to follow him to the capital of Windfall Nation. In fact, he would find it even more shocking if Tan Chi did not follow him.
“Junior Brother, the two of us will finally reunite soon.” After Tan Chi agreed to his proposal, Bai Li Hong’s heart was filled with excitement.
Although he had been trapped in the Dark Nether Sect, he had never stopped worrying about junior brother’s safety. Now that he finally received news about Duan Ling Tian, coupled with the fact that he might see him soon, he was, naturally excited.
