Chapter 632: Chapter 391: Sudden Occurrence_2
At this moment, Peregrine Azure wanted to hurry and leave, surrounded by hundreds of disciples from the Fly Geese Door, both inside and out. Unless he carved a bloody path for himself right now, the grudge would be set if he made a move. After all, he had only just managed to change Lysander Fischer’s mind.
Clearly at the Quasi-Saint Realm, he was now eyed covetously by a group from the Transcending Realm, forcing Peregrine Azure to laugh bitterly. Then, he cast a questioning glance at Lysander Fischer nearby, as if asking whether he could make a move. The one thing Peregrine Azure could guarantee was that he wouldn’t kill.
“I will ensure you leave safely; follow me,” Lysander Fischer said, his face stern as he walked forward. Naturally, these disciples did not dare to stop them. Peregrine Azure followed closely behind Lysander Fischer, so even though the hundreds of disciples would not allow it, they ran out of options at the moment.
Just as Peregrine Azure was about to leave the mountain gate, it would still take several minutes for the more than one hundred Great Sects to arrive. He absolutely couldn’t be allowed to leave just like that, so many disciples, steeled their hearts and blocked Lysander Fischer’s way. Though this was offensive to the Sect Leader, they had no choice.
Otherwise, if Peregrine Azure left, and the blame for everything was placed on Fly Geese Door by the other sects, all of these people would suffer. In the hearts of the hundreds of disciples, they firmly believed that cooperating with the Blood Drinking Sect was the only future, cleanly dividing up the resources of the Central Region.
“What, do you really dare to make a move against the Sect Leader?” Lysander Fischer was furious. He had been too lenient with these disciples usually, letting them think that he, the Sect Leader, had no temper. Where in the whole world was there a sect where disciples dared to do this? Perhaps only the Fly Geese Door would.
The several hundred disciples all trembled. Even if they were given a hundred times the courage, they wouldn’t dare, but the situation forced them, they had to intercept! In any case, Peregrine Azure could not leave today; they must wait for the more than one hundred Great Sects to arrive to discuss how to deal with Peregrine Azure together.
“Sect Leader of the Fly Geese Door, you truly command quite an imposing presence, eh? Forming an alliance with us one moment, secretly collaborating with the Saint Sky Sect behind our backs?”
Suddenly, a taunting voice rang out, followed by the appearance of one person who was also a Sect Head of a Great Sect with the strength of a Quasi-Saint.
Then one figure after another appeared, and soon, more than one hundred people gathered there. These were all the influential Sect Heads of the Central Region, with one-third of them already at the Quasi-Saint Seat. The others, slightly less powerful, had reached the Half-step Saint Seat.
Seeing this scene, Peregrine Azure plunged into panic. He had held a trace of hope in his heart, but now it was clear that his chances were slim today. These more than one hundred Great Sects represented most of the Central Region’s power, certainly not something he could contend against alone.
Lysander Fischer was also frightened and quickly saluted with his hands: “I have some friendship with Peregrine Azure, which actually has no involvement with the situation in the Central Region. I hope the other Sect Heads will not misunderstand.”
“Hope it’s so,” the crowd snorted coldly, turning their gaze to Peregrine Azure, “Vice Sect Leader of the Saint Sky Sect, since you’ve come, do not think about leaving. We just happen to be looking for someone to be a sacrificial flag. Using someone from the Saint Sky Sect, the leading sect among the Five Great Sects, would be most fitting.”
“Even with so many of you, are you sure you can keep me here?” Peregrine Azure was scared but still represented the Saint Sky Sect and naturally could not bow to these Sect Heads. Even if he were to lay down his life here, he would fight these people to the last moment.
The more than one hundred Sect Heads smirked with disdain. Could Peregrine Azure still be so arrogant? Did he really think they, the Great Sect Heads, were vegetarians? Although the Saint Sky Sect was the leader of the top five sects in the Central Region, its strongest was only a Quasi-Saint, and there were over thirty Quasi-Saints present.
Looking at their expressions, Peregrine Azure naturally felt extreme revulsion. If it weren’t for the Supreme Elder of the Saint Sky Sect wandering off to the Ancient Secret Realm, would they dare to act this way? It was only because there was no Saint Seat in the Central Region that they were easily instigated by the Blood Drinking Sect.
A Sect Head looked at the others and said solemnly, “Let us join forces to execute Peregrine Azure and by this declare our opposition to the Saint Sky Sect. What do you all think?”
All nodded their heads. At this point, Peregrine Azure knew he could not escape and thus chose to strike first. He unleashed his Quasi-Saint Divine Skill, but faced with the over a hundred Sect Leaders present, Peregrine Azure was clearly outmatched, and in a moment, he was utterly routed.
After another three rounds, Peregrine Azure sustained serious injuries and had no combat power left. Alone, he faced dozens of Quasi-Saints, and the gap was simply too wide. Even a true Holy See, faced with these hundred-plus individuals, would likely not resolve the situation overnight.
“Do you really wish to side with the Blood Drinking Sect, unafraid of meeting the same fate as the Demonic Sky Gate?” Seeing that these people were ready to make their move on him, Peregrine Azure staggered backward while shouting loudly in an attempt to deter them, but it was of no use whatsoever.
The hundred-plus individuals stopped in unison and then said, “Having taken this step, there’s no turning back, is there? The greater the risk, the greater the resources, right? Besides, according to the information we’ve obtained, the Western Wasteland was stabilized not by your Saint Sky Sect but by a young man’s intervention, who has no ties to us in the Central Region. Therefore, he surely won’t get involved in the disputes of the Central Region.”
“What if I said that person is now with the Saint Sky Sect?” The moment Peregrine Azure said this, the faces of everyone present changed. Could it mean that after dealing with the Demonic Sky Gate, Logan was also planning to eradicate the Blood Drinking Sect in the Central Region?
Looking at one another, all realized the gravity of the situation. After all, Logan’s array had the power to decisively kill even a Holy See. To him, their hundred-plus Sects were insignificant. Provoking him could mean death without even knowing how it happened.
“Peregrine Azure must be trying to scare us. Let’s not be fooled,” someone spoke out in rebuttal. If the Saint Sky Sect truly invited such a Powerhouse, they would not have sent Peregrine Azure to persuade Fly Geese Door; they would have already warned these Sects or taken direct action.
Peregrine Azure offered no explanation, simply replying, “Believe it or not, that’s for you to weigh.” The more he explained, the more guilty he seemed, so he left them to speculate. Killing him wouldn’t benefit them but could potentially offend Logan.
“I think we should capture Peregrine Azure and see how the Saint Sky Sect reacts. If Logan is really there, we could return Peregrine Azure and thus seek reconciliation with the Saint Sky Sect, while drawing clear lines with the Blood Drinking Sect. If not, and the Saint Sky Sect can’t produce Logan, then we will execute Peregrine Azure as a declaration,” Lysander Fischer abruptly stood up and suggested after a long while. He had to find a way to preserve Peregrine Azure’s life, ensuring that even if the Saint Sky Sect intends to seek retaliation, they wouldn’t blame Fly Geese Door for Peregrine Azure’s demise.
Although the hundred-plus Sect Leaders were reluctant, this indeed seemed the best course of action. They still held apprehensions toward the Saint Sky Sect, especially after the downfall of the Demonic Sky Gate in the Western Wasteland. They should have admitted fault, but the Blood Drinking Sect had emboldened them.
“We will take Peregrine Azure with us. Fly Geese Door has made a significant contribution this time, and Lysander Fischer, you’ve done well, nurturing such talented disciples!”
They all laughed, and then trapped Peregrine Azure with a Divine Artifact. They promptly left Fly Geese Door, and from their mocking tone, it was evident they felt that Lysander Fischer could have allied with the Saint Sky Sect, if not for his Sect disciple’s actions that led to grievances.
Watching Peregrine Azure being taken away and looking at the backs of the hundred-plus Sect Leaders, Lysander Fischer let out a wry smile, “This is also my Fly Geese Door’s fault. If I had been stricter in disciplining, preventing the Sect’s disciples from acting recklessly, it would not have come to this. I can only hope that the Saint Sky Sect won’t hold a grudge against us.”
“Sect Leader…” The disciples lowered their heads, while Lysander Fischer waived them off and left, “You all disappoint me. As Sect Leader, would I harm you? Acting without consulting me, you’ve seen only one side. Could you truly understand the complexities of the Central Region?”
Lysander Fischer hurried to the Saint Sky Sect. Whatever the case, an explanation was necessary. Fortunately, Peregrine Azure’s life was spared for the time being, offering a glimmer of hope for resolution.
