“I believe Mr. Lindt’s suggestion is a good one. Since there is already a rift between us and Luminous Sect, it would be wise to eliminate them. Allowing them to remain would only lead to trouble. Once they are exterminated, we can seize their resources and distribute them among ourselves.” Hugh spoke up, supporting Wrey’s plan.
Upon hearing Hugh’s words and the promise of sharing Luminous Sect’s resources, the crowd. fell silent no more. “Let’s just kill them all! I could no longer stand the sight of Matthew anyway.”
“Once we’ve dealt with Luminous Sect, let’s keep his female disciple alive. I can’t resist the temptation whenever I see her! And since there are plenty of them, we can all…” one of the men broke into laughter. Those individuals sealed the fate of Luminous. Sect amidst resounding laughter.
Meanwhile, Matthew, along with the disciples of Luminous Sect, had set up a camp not far. away, completely unaware of the thoughts brewing among the others. His current concern was Jared’s safety, as he was unsure if the latter managed to escape.
“Master, it has been several days, and they still haven’t captured him, so I’m sure he managed to escape. Don’t worry!” Skyler comforted Matthew.
Matthew nodded in agreement. “Mr. Chance is not destined to meet his demise so easily. We should find a suitable location to relocate Luminous Sect. The resources within this secret realm are abundant, and I believe that with access to these resources, all of you will be able to enhance your strength at a faster pace.”
“Master, shouldn’t we go hunt some demon beasts and collect their beast cores?” Archer asked in puzzlement. “I have inspected the area, and those are all high-level demon beasts with formidable strength. It would require a great cost to hunt them down. Besides, the resources here are abundant and sufficient for cultivation. In that case, why should we take unnecessary risks?” Matthew expressed his reluctance to hunt demon beasts.
He wanted to focus on finding a suitable place for Luminous Sect to settle in. “All right. Skyler and I will bring a group of people to scout for the suitable location then!” Archer nodded.
Meanwhile, at the meeting with all the sects, everyone reached a consensus to take action against Luminous Sect and completely eliminate them..
However, just as they were about to conclude the meeting, a sudden spatial fluctuation occurred, and a figure slowly emerged. Upon witnessing this scene, everyone was left stunned and immediately adopted a defensive posture.
As the figure fully materialized, they were all taken aback. “Yona? You’re still alive?” Wrey asked while looking at the figure. The man was none other than Yona, the overlord of Scorching Heaven Sect.
Scorching Heaven Sect, a demonic cult, was eradicated by the combined forces of all the sects. Thus, none of the anticipated the arrival of Yona, one of the members of the sect. Upon noticing Yona’s arrival, the crowd panicked and started gathering their auras.
“Calm down. This is just a manifestation of Yona. He doesn’t pose a real threat to us,” Isaac quickly reassured the crowd, restoring a sense of calm.
Among the people present, only Isaac knew that Yona had not perished, and he had also maintained connections with Scorching Heaven Sect. Isaac’s ability to deceive Luminous Sect for years and exploit their resources stemmed from his collaboration with Yona, enabling him to effectively deceive Matthew as well.
“What are you doing here, Yona?” Wrey asked while glancing at the figure.
“I heard about your plan to annihilate Luminous Sect, so I thought I’d come over and join the fun. Besides, I’d like to participate in hunting down the demon beasts with all of you!” Yona said with a slight grin.
“No way. You’re a Demonic Cultivator. How can you join us?” One of the leaders outrightly rejected Yona. “If you reject my membership request, I’ll expose your plan to Matthew. Moreover, event though I may practice Demonic Cultivation, what sets me apart from the rest of you? Are you not all willing to do whatever it takes for cultivation and resources?
Why else would you be intent on annihilating Luminous Sect? It’s a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Furthermore, my practice of black magic stems from the scarcity of resources and my desire to expedite cultivation. With the abundant resources and numerous demon beasts here, I no longer need to resort to black magic to absorb others’ power. If you permit my inclusion, Scorching Heaven Sect can take Luminous Sect’s place. Additionally, my sect can contribute to the task of exterminating demon beasts,” Yona declared, sporting a chilling smile.
