Chapter 424: Abandoned
The giant cobra locked eyes with the only person remaining in the Fortress. Unable to move, Zhang Tu was helpless against the giant armored figure that stepped up behind him and wrapped its giant arms around his chest. While the sounds of cracking bones rang out, a barely visible shape lifted out of the ground and flew into Zhang Tus body. After a few minutes, Zhang Tus lifeless body disappeared into the Universe Ring. With a flash of power, the giant cobra was gone and Sage appeared once again in his human form. With a command the Dragoons ended their blockade and flew in to clear and occupy the Fortress.
Sage was exhausted and wanted to just slump down to the ground, but with Dian Huifang around, he didnt want to show too much weakness. There was also a chance the Black White Army would return for revenge. Thankfully, they did not. After sacrificing a few dozen Dragoons, the Fortress was completely cleared of traps and emptied of anything of value. Not that there was much. Sage found a Storage Bag and Ring on Zhang Tus body and they were pretty bare. Ruthless as he was, the man actually kept a ledger and thats where Sage learned how much was invested into hiring the Black White Army.
Even my enemy was traumatized by that mutiny. I suppose thats something. Heh. I made two Nascent Souls run away!The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.
Though he might feel a little pity over the traumatized Zhang Tu, the man was also his enemy. As a new leader that rose up in the wake of the mutiny, Sage wouldnt show any mercy. Leaving an enemy alive would only lead to hidden dangers in the future, and the only enemies Sage had were those he couldnt track down, those that were too powerful for him to face, or those he hadnt yet hunted down. The latter list was actually quite long, though hed just crossed one of them off.
Luckily, the Yin Yang Twins were still only at the earliest stages of Nascent Soul which gave Sage a chance to compete with them. During his time with Guan Zhenyan, Sage didnt just comprehend the Minor Laws of Toxin, Venom or Acid, he found the Major Law of Poison. Suffering from so many varieties of powerful poisons gave him insight into more than just the minor parts and a glimpse at the greater level. In fact, the only reason he had a chance was that hed already reached the third degree in the Law of Poison. With only a single degree of Law understanding, and a few stages of cultivation to separate them, Sage had made up for the gap with his armies of minions, Heavenly Materials and unusual methods. It had been just barely enough to make them give up the fight.
Thankfully, they were only doing a job and also had their Disciples to protect. Sages chances of actually killing either of them were slim to none.
With the Fortress cleared out, they spent the night there to rest before continuing on their voyage to Dian Huifangs clan. It was a time wasting errand, but Sage had plenty of that now and it wasnt ever a good idea to piss off a Nascent Soul. There was also the chance that he might recruit the woman, so he didnt mind going a few weeks out of his way.
Sage left a Legion of Dragoons behind as a garrison in the Fortress and he boarded the airship with Dian Huifang and Songji once again. The majority of the Dragoons had been collected, leaving only one as an escort. He rotated a Legion out once every few hours to allow them to rest and they made pretty good time. The airships speed couldnt compare to a Flying Ship, but the straight path through the air was much faster than traveling by ground. If they used high tiered mounts, they would travel at much higher speeds, but the winding paths and possible monster attacks would slow them down. Traveling by airship was only slightly slower and much more relaxed, especially with a thousand flying bodyguards to deter attacks.
Eventually, they reached the location of Dian Huifangs clan and Sage finally realized where he recognized her name from when he saw the majestic sign at the foot of a mountain in the distance: Thundercloud Sect.
