Chapter 2111: ’Bait
Chapter 2111: ’Bait
Recently, the news that the ’Demon Race’ from the Exile Land might have already invaded the ’Lower Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land and could invade the ’Upper Domain’ at any time, has also reached the Mysterious Buddha Sect.
Upon hearing this news, the entire Mysterious Buddha Sect was greatly shaken.
However, compared to the usual panic of those in the Upper Domain, the Mysterious Buddha Sect appeared much calmer.
After all, the Mysterious Buddha Sect is one of the three major sects of the Martial Dao Sacred Land and is among the top forces of the land.
The average person might fear the Demon Race and be anxious about their presence.
But to those in the Mysterious Buddha Sect, though the Demon Race is terrifying, the sect itself is not weak and can fully defend against the demons!
Once the Demon Race invades the Upper Domain, as one of the strongest forces in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, the Mysterious Buddha Sect will join the other two major sects as humanity’s last hope!
Regardless of whether the Demon Race will invade the Upper Domain in the future, the Mysterious Buddha Sect also prepares early, ready to act at any moment.
As a result, there was a scene where a Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder came to Sin City to procure ’materials.’
Cade Simpson is one of the Mysterious Buddha Sect Elders who came to Sin City this time.
"Hmph! Fewer and fewer people are willing to sell ’materials’ to us..."
Walking alongside another Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder, flying over the western region of Sin City, Cade Simpson said gloomily, "In my opinion, if they refuse to sell materials to us, just kill them!"
"If the Demon Race invades the Upper Domain in the future, our Mysterious Buddha Sect will be the ’main force,’ and the loose cultivators in Sin City are nothing but ’cannon fodder’! Even if we leave the materials for them, it’s just a waste."
After Cade Simpson’s words, a chilling intent emerged on his face.
"Elder Simpson, although that’s true, if we kill them, it will undoubtedly have bad repercussions..."
The Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder beside Simpson shook his head and said, "No matter what, they are loose cultivators. In Sin City, when loose cultivators fight and kill each other, those few scattered experts above the ’Seventh Transformation of Saint Immortal’ in Sin City won’t care..."
"But if we Mysterious Buddha Sect Elders were to kill the loose cultivators in Sin City, there’s a high chance they would strike back, even eradicating us!"
Saying this, the Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder’s face turned extremely solemn.
"Elder Truman, are there truly so many powerful loose cultivators above the ’Seventh Transformation of Saint Immortal’ in Sin City?"
Cade Simpson asked with some skepticism.
"The number of beings above the ’Seventh Transformation of Saint Immortal’ in Sin City probably doesn’t fall short of our Mysterious Buddha Sect... Otherwise, why do you think we allow such a chaotic city to exist near our sect’s base?"
The Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder walking alongside Simpson shook his head again, showing some caution in his eyes.
Hearing this, Cade Simpson fell into silence.
The Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder beside him was not just a regular elder, but one level above him—a presence at the ’Fifth Transformation of Saint Immortal’!
Simpson trusted what this elder said.
At this moment, neither Cade Simpson nor the other Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder noticed:
In the far distance, someone was staring intently at them.
And this person was none other than Wyatt Barnes, who wanted to kill Cade Simpson!
Cade Simpson, a Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder, had once entered the ’Lower Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, and descended forcefully upon the Mansion of Azure Clouds. He not only seized the super sacred artifact ’Demon Sealing Monument’ from Wyatt but also killed the old man who was his father’s right-hand man and then slaughtered a team of Blackarmor Army guards.
At that time, Wyatt had already considered Cade Simpson as a ’mortal enemy’!
Today, seeing Cade Simpson again in Sin City, Wyatt decided this was the perfect opportunity to kill him!
Otherwise, who knows when Simpson would come out again after returning to the Mysterious Buddha Sect.
After all, the group of Mysterious Buddha Sect Elders, including Simpson, came to Sin City to purchase ’materials’ for the sect, preparing for the Demon Race that could invade the Upper Domain from the Lower Domain at any time.
Once Simpson returned this time, it wouldn’t be possible for him to leave the Mysterious Buddha Sect in the short term.
Because of this, Wyatt didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
"I’ll wait until they separate again... as long as they part ways, I can carry out my ’plan’!"
While staring from afar at Cade Simpson and the other elder, Wyatt secretly waited in his heart.
In his past life as the strongest Weapon King on Earth, Wyatt’s tracking capabilities were extraordinary; even the Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder beside Simpson, a ’Fifth Transformation of Saint Immortal,’ hadn’t noticed Wyatt’s surveillance.
About a quarter of an hour later.
Perhaps heaven heard Wyatt’s ’murmur’ in his heart, as the Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder beside Simpson finally separated from him.
At the same time, the distance between the two grew further and further.
When the distance became great enough, the Mysterious Buddha Sect Elder at the ’Fifth Transformation of Saint Immortal’ would deliberately move closer to Simpson, as if aiming to always keep a certain distance from him, not letting Simpson leave his Divine Sense’s perception range.
Cade Simpson was the son of the ’Golden Lion King,’ one of the four Great Dharma Kings of the Mysterious Buddha Sect. This time, since he accompanied him out, the elder was naturally very cautious and took good care of Simpson.
Otherwise, if something happened to Simpson, when he returned to the Mysterious Buddha Sect, he wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences!
Though he had entered the ’Fifth Transformation of Saint Immortal,’ he was as insignificant as an ant before the Golden Lion King, hardly worth mentioning.
The Golden Lion King is a Great Dharma King of the Mysterious Buddha Sect, and without exception, all the Great Dharma Kings are beings above the ’Seventh Transformation of Saint Immortal’!
"It’s time!"
Very quickly, Wyatt Barnes noticed that a significant distance had developed between the two, and promptly set off.
Of course, as he moved, his speed was neither too fast nor too slow, precisely akin to an ordinary early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm martial artist’s pace.
Swoosh!
In no time, Wyatt arrived near Cade Simpson, nearly brushing past at a distance of ten meters.
Wyatt’s approach naturally caught Cade’s attention.
However, seeing Wyatt’s speed, Cade did not even bother to glance at him because he could tell Wyatt posed no threat just by observing the speed he was exhibiting.
Whoosh!
Just as Wyatt was crossing paths with Cade, he suddenly raised his hand as if catching something, and then abruptly halted.
His actions immediately put Cade on high alert, causing him to stop at once and watch him like a hawk, extending his vast Divine Sense to probe Wyatt’s soul and gauge his cultivation level.
"Early stage Heavenly Saint Realm?"
Learning Wyatt’s cultivation level, Cade relaxed, thinking he had been overly cautious.
A mere early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm presence posed no threat to him!
"He’s not stopping because of me."
At the same time, realizing Wyatt had halted without even glancing at him, Cade shook his head, preparing to leave.
It was then.
"Asura Sabre!"
Wyatt’s startled shout shocked Cade, making his eyes light up.
Asura Sabre?
Isn’t that among the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List, a super sacred artifact?
Why did this early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth suddenly shout ’Asura Sabre’?
Could there be something hidden here?
Soon after, Cade noticed:
The early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth, who previously didn’t look at him, sneakily glanced around after his shout of ’Asura Sabre.’
Once he saw Cade nearby, his expression rapidly changed several times.
He then saw:
After taking a deep breath, the early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth altered his direction, heading west.
"First, he mentioned ’Asura Sabre,’ and now he’s heading west..."
"Earlier, he seemed to raise his hand... should have received a ’transmission jade slip.’
"Could the transmission jade slip contain information about the ’Asura Sabre’?"
"Rumor has it... recently, the Asura Sabre appeared in the ’West Region.’ Now he’s going toward the West Region..."
In an instant, Cade’s mind raced with thoughts.
"Follow and see... perhaps he actually has news about the ’Asura Sabre!’ If I can acquire the ’Asura Sabre,’ I can present it to my father, and he would surely be thrilled."
Greedy gleam flashed in his eyes as Cade closely tailed the early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth he was eyeing—a handsome young man in a purple robe, with sword-like brows and a starry gaze.
"This person’s figure... seems familiar from somewhere..."
Trailing behind the purple-robed youth heading west, Cade found the figure’s back somewhat familiar but couldn’t recall where he’d seen it.
Nevertheless, he was certain:
He had never seen this purple-robed youth before!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t fail to recognize him!
"Elder Truman, I need to step away for a bit; I’ll rejoin you later."
Following the purple-robed youth, Cade used Divine Sense to send a message to the Saint Immortal Fifth Transformation elder from the Mysterious Buddha Sect and quickly left the elder’s sensing range and ’surveillance.’
Regarding the ’Asura Sabre’ news, he didn’t want this Saint Immortal Fifth Transformation elder to know.
Otherwise, the ’Asura Sabre’ would never land in his hands.
Although, within the Fire Worship Sect, his father’s status and power far exceeded that of this Mysterious Buddha Sect elder.
Yet behind this Mysterious Buddha Sect elder lies a ’Great Dharma King.’
If he offered the ’Asura Sabre’ to that Great Dharma King, it would then have nothing to do with them as father and son.
That’s not something he wished to see!
Precisely for that reason, he intended to momentarily distance himself from this Mysterious Buddha Sect elder to follow the purple-robed youth alone and verify whether the latter indeed had news of the ’Asura Sabre.’
