Chapter 429: Xuelong

Surprisingly, Xuelong was present for this meeting, standing in the same spot that Huifang was standing at the earlier meeting. Of course, this meeting was now being called in a hall of the Thundercloud Sect and not the Dian Clan. The people sitting on the chairs were quite different from the group the last time. One of them wore bracers made of blue scales, one of them had a vest made of golden scales, and a third had spheres of lightning around his pupils. He was a Doctor and Sect Elder, Chang Lanyan. There were three others that Sage didnt recognize in the least, but he assumed they were quite important among the Thundercloud Sect. Without waiting for any introductions, Sage immediately gave the assembled group a deep bow.

What did you do to Xuelong?

One of the three who werent wearing scales was the first to open his mouth. He was an old man with stark white hair and he was sitting second from the right. Sage wasnt sure if the ones towards the center held more power, but it seemed their seating arrangement didnt decide who could speak. The others didnt seem surprised by the outburst and the man wearing a golden scaled vest even leaned forward in anticipation. Unfortunately for them, Sage wasnt about to buckle under such light pressure.

I cured him.

How?The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

After many hours of intense treatment, I was finally able to remove his poison.

They did not seem pleased by his vague answers, but Sage wasnt about to start revealing secrets to the leaders of a first rate power. Well, as long as there was any other choice that is. I thought I was being kind by not making any demands before rendering services, but it seems I may have made a mistake.

Thankfully, the Thundercloud Sect wasnt as ruthless as he feared. After the old mans questioning didnt get a result they didnt continue to push the matter. Instead the woman sitting near the center, a beautiful middle aged woman, smiled. She had a warm and motherly voice, Dont worry about Violent Cloud. He was just curious how you could do something that even Blue Cloud could not.

She waved her hand to indicate Chang Lanyan, and Sage started to make a connection. A moment later, the woman cleared up his confusion.

The Hidden Domain only allows teams of five to enter, and Xuelong is the only one that returned. Thanks to you, he recovered enough to tell us what he saw. The other members of his team were not killed by the poison. They were attacked by strange creatures with human-like bodies and weird insect-like heads of a type theyve never seen before. Xuelong has told us that they werent that physically powerful, but the poison he suffered from is everywhere.

Sage nodded with understanding, Ahh, I understand. Ill do it, but only if I go alone. Ill split the gains with the Thundercloud Sect, half and half.

The old man near the end, Violent Cloud, smashed his hand against his arm rest, turning it into splinters. He glared at Sage, You little cretin! Do you think you have any capital here to be arrogant? You should be happy to still be alive and thankful to have an opportunity to do a service for the Thundercloud Sect!

Sage didnt respond to the tirade and just kept his eyes fixed on Peach Cloud. After a few moments she smiled as well and held up a hand to silence Violent Cloud. She held up two fingers, Twenty percent, and youll take along a Memory Seed with you.

One third and thats as low as Ill go.

Violent Cloud was not pleased wanting to leap up and throttle Sage, but he was stopped by a wisp of pink clouds that flew over to him. Peach Cloud laughed at how easily Sage was upsetting the old man and she clapped her hands.

Youll take one quarter and youll like it. Consider the rest a payment to keep Violent Cloud from murdering you and everyone you know as soon as you leave here.

Sage felt cold sweat roll down his back, but he smiled nonetheless. He nodded to Peach Cloud, Change that to every member of the Thundercloud Sect, Dian Clan, Lei Clan, and anyone else you all know and you have a deal! Oh, and no hiring killers either. Is there some sort of mass Oathstone you can use?

Peach Cloud held in a snort and she shook her head, No, but we can issue a Sect Order, thats close enough.
