Chapter 1471 -1471: Leaving the Eternal City

Gregory Hum is right; after all, this is the Holy Region, the world of cultivators.

There are plenty of ways for them to go to a place, like teleportation formations, and Void Gates.

“Blocking one is better than none,” Ken Middleton said.

He didn’t stay long and quickly left the place.

Ethan Smith and Salena Carpenter didn’t stay in Eternal City either, and instead planned to go to Nexinton Mountain.

Upon leaving Eternal City, Ethan Smith happened to encounter Urban Dittman, who was also planning to leave.

Urban Dittman saw Ethan Smith as well, stopped in his tracks and said with a half-smile, “Ethan Smith, long time no see.”

Ethan Smith stared coldly at Urban Dittman and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll crush your bones to ashes soon enough.”

“Crush my bones to ashes? Ha! You can try!” Urban Dittman shouted back.

For a moment, Ethan Smith could hardly stand it. He stepped forward and coldly said, “Come on, let’s settle life and death today. Don’t hold back with your White Bone Club!”

“Sure, I’ve been wanting to kill you!” Urban Dittman said coldly.

“Both of you, calm down.”

At this moment, Mr. Eternal rushed out from the city.

He looked at the group with a smile and said, “Why must you hold grudges when they can be resolved? There’s no need for such anger.”

Urban Dittman snorted lightly and said, “In consideration of Mr. Eternal, I’ll spare your life.”

Ethan could not help but grind his teeth.

Urban Dittman, this beast, had no real strength of his own, but merely relying on his White Bone Club to boast and swagger.

Ethan didn’t say anything more, because Scott Elliott and Ged Shepherd were still in the Hunter organization, and the tragic fate of Polly Reeves must not happen again.

After Urban Dittman left, Mr. Eternal said politely, “Our guests have come from afar. Why not stay in Eternal City for a few days? What do you think?”

Gregory Hum stretched out a lazy waist and replied, “We have different paths and cannot be friends. Mr. Eternal, haven’t you forgotten? We do not agree to the Northern people settling in.”

This comment was undoubtedly mocking Mr. Eternal, who could clearly hear it.

He smiled bitterly and said, “Brother Hum misunderstood me. I never promised them to enter the Southern Province, merely tried to maintain neutrality and strive for peace.”

“Oh? Mr. Eternal is indeed very magnanimous.” Gregory Hum clasped his hands with a hint of disdain in his voice.

“Alright, alright, we have things to do when we get back, so we won’t stay long.” Salena Carpenter waved her hand and then pulled Ethan Smith to leave.

The group left Eternal City and hurried toward Nexinton Mountain.

At this moment, the First Elder and others had already returned to Cloud Sect.

His face was extremely livid, and when he thought of the treatment in Eternal City, he was filled with rage.

“This Ken Middleton, he doesn’t take my Cloud Sect seriously at all!” The First Elder raged.

“He really thinks we can’t do anything to him? One day, my Cloud Sect will kill all of you!”

As the First Elder vented his anger, the Deputy Sect Master suddenly walked in and said, “Sect Master has left his retreat and summoned you to see him.”

The First Elder’s eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, “What? The sect master has left the retreat? That’s great! Where is he now?”

“On Cultivation Mountain,” said the Deputy Sect Master.

Upon hearing this, the First Elder immediately rushed toward Cultivation Mountain.

All these days, the First Elder had been bottling up his grievances, waiting to complain to the sect master.

Upon arriving at Cultivation Mountain, he saw the tall figure of the sect master, his back towards him.

“Sect master, you’re finally out of retreat!” the First Elder said as he ran over.

The sect master slowly turned around, his hands clutched behind his back, looking at the First Elder, “If there’s anything, just say it.”

Without delay, the First Elder elaborated on all the events of the past few days, even embellishing some details.

This included how Ethan Smith had come to challenge Cloud Sect, and how Ken Middleton had snubbed the First Elder in Eternal City.

“Moreover, Salena Carpenter almost killed me. Sect Master, these people must die!” The First Elder said viciously.

The sect master stared at the First Elder for a long time without saying a word.

“Sect master, you’ve been too tolerant towards them. If we don’t teach them a lesson, they might take Cloud Sect for granted!” the First Elder continued when he saw the sect master’s silence.

The sect master sighed softly and then asked, “Why did you agree to the Northern people settling in the Southern Province?”

The First Elder was stunned for a moment before he awkwardly replied, “He said he would offer the Sacred Heart Formula as a reward. You know that the Sacred Heart Formula is a unique skill in the North, and he…”

“Is it just because of the Sacred Heart Formula?” the sect master interrupted.

The First Elder seemed to detect the sect master’s displeasure and hesitated, unsure of what to say.

“Who has the final say in the Southern Province?” the sect master asked.

The First Elder hastened to reply, “Of course, it’s our Cloud Sect, and you have the final say.”

“So doesn’t the Northern people entering our Southern Province count as an invasion?” the sect master continued.

The First Elder opened his mouth but didn’t know how to respond.

“If it is considered an invasion, is Cloud Sect considered invaded?” the sect master questioned relentlessly.

“As the acting sect master of Cloud Sect, why would you make such a foolish decision?”

The First Elder was sweating profusely, stammering, “Sect master, I… you…”

At this moment, he suddenly remembered Mr. Eternal and quickly said, “It’s Mr. Eternal who hosted this meeting, it has nothing to do with me!”

“Mr. Eternal?” The sect master’s face turned cold, “Mr. Eternal has been developing such a strong force in secret. Is it good or bad for our Cloud Sect? The Northern people invade the Southern Province and harm Cloud Sect’s interests. Isn’t Mr. Eternal the biggest beneficiary?”

Several questions made the First Elder anxious and flustered.

He “plop” dropped to his knees, shaking and saying, “Sect… sect master, I was foolish. You… please punish me.”

The sect master said sternly, “Since you are the leader of Cloud Sect, your thinking should not be small, and your vision should not be so short-sighted.”

“If your eyes are always fixed on personal gains and losses, and personal grudges, you will never be able to become a true leader.”

The First Elder didn’t dare to say anything more, as he knelt on the ground, constantly agreeing.

After speaking, the Sect Master once again turned his back to the First Elder.

He waved his hand and said, “Leave.”

The First Elder hesitated and then, tentatively asked, “Sect master, you… what do you mean?”

“I still need to retreat for some time. I hope you won’t disappoint me again,” said the sect master indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the First Elder hurriedly nodded, “Definitely, definitely!”

The sect master waved his hand, and the First Elder was instantly sent down Cultivation Mountain.

At this moment, the entire Cultivation Mountain was closed off, as layers of fog appeared which obscured visibility.

The fog shrouded the entire mountain, preventing anyone from entering.

…

Nexinton Mountain.

Gregory Hum, Salena Carpenter, and Ethan Smith were sitting together.

Of course, Alfred Freeman and Clay Freeman were also chattering non-stop as if they had endless things to talk about.

“I really admire Ken Middleton,” Gregory Hum said at that moment.

“Since I first met him, I’ve never seen him rest for a single day,” Gregory Hum sighed.

Salena Carpenter rolled her eyes and said, “You think everyone’s as laid-back as you.”
