Upon obtaining the blueprint of the array, the Beast King immediately set out to dismantle the Destruction Array. The moment it was disassembled, he felt a genuine sense of joy. With no more concerns at this moment, he felt at ease to hunt down Logan.
With a wave of hisrge hand, he summoned the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast and ordered, “Send mymand, deploy ten Dominators to hunt down Logan and hispanions at all costs. Whoever brings back their heads will be handsomely rewarded. They must be captured within a day, or else, I will personally take action. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Beast King.” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast nodded and asked, “Given the stage we are at, Logan and hispanions pose no threat. Will deployingrge numbers of human and demon beasts to hunt them down cause a stir? The surrounding Lords have been keeping a close eye on the Mountain Range, fearing any movement from the demon beast tribe.”
“Do you still have a sense of mercy?” The Beast King’s gaze turned cold. The surrounding Lords were but mere ants in his eyes. He had been asleep for a hundred years, and they had the audacity to act arrogantly now? If they do not obey, they will be eradicated.”
The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast hurriedly shook its head, dering, “I dare not. I will prioritize the interests of our demon beast tribe. Although the surrounding Lords don’t possess strong powers, they all have the support of the Saint Seat to some extent. Unless forced to, it is better not to provoke them and risk causing a great war between the human race and our demon beast tribe.”<div>
He considered the best interests of the demon beast tribe. As for thepassion the Beast King had mentioned, there might have been some in the past, given that Logan had saved the Beast King’s life. But, the current situation had escted, making it difficult to take into ount the past grudges. There wouldn’t be any mercy on his part.
“Rest assured, I have calcted the risks. Even if they have the support of the Saint Seat, who would willingly wage arge-scale war against me? As long as we don’t make a bigmotion and spread the news that whoever can capture Logan will be a distinguished guest of ours, this will serve as an exnation to these Lords,” said the Beast King.
After some contemtion, the Beast King casually announced his determination to eliminate Logan, even if it meant sacrificing millions of demon beasts in the Mountain Range. As long as he, the mighty Beast King, was here, everything could start anew. He could also recreate the demon beast tribe.
If these Lords declined to take a hint, he wouldn’t mind starting a killing spree. Being astute, they would surely cooperate with him, deploying their own forces to hunt down Logan. As such a move would serve the interests of both parties.
The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast bowed its hands together and left, stating loudly, “Beast King, I will personally participate in hunting down Logan. I am not fully confident in the ten Dominators. Considering how clever and cunning Logan is, it is safer to have me with them.”
Continuing to rest with his eyes closed, the Beast King had recovered from his injuries after several days of recuperation. Yet, his strength had not rebounded as expected: it had only restored to around sixty percent, approximately a Half-step Saint Seat. To recover back into a true Saint Seat, it was estimated that he would need more than a month.
Meanwhile, Lowen Shingo grew impatient. He waited with Logan for almost a day, but the Heavenly Saint Daoist never showed up, making him feel as if Logan’s scheme had failed. Additionally, now that the blueprint of the array had been dispatched, the Beast King would definitely send someone to hunt them down.
Seeing Logan remaining calm, Lowen Shingo couldn’t help but suggest, “Let’s leave. This isn’t a ce to linger. Even if we want to negotiate cooperation with the Heavenly Saint Daoist, it would be better to find a safer ce. The Heavenly Saint Daoist must suspect that there’s a trap here. Waiting here for a year will just be a waste of time.”
“Don’t worry, I feel that he will arrive soon,” Logan responded after opening his eyes and scanning his surroundings. Logically speaking, the Heavenly Saint Daoist should have arrived long ago. The fact that there was still no news of him at that point suggested that he might already have arrived.
“Heavenly Saint Daoist Sir, you’re here already, so stop hiding. There are no traps here. How abouting out for a cup of tea? Are you, a Saint Seat holder, still afraid of my little Throne? It’s clearly written – I want to cooperate with you in killing the Beast King. How does that sound?”
After Logan spoke, the eerie silence persisted. Beside him, Lowen Shingo was utterly perplexed. This ce was obviously empty. Who was Logan talking to? Could it be that he had gone mad, hallucinating the Heavenly Saint Daoist’s presence because he wanted to see him so badly?
Lowen Shingo was utterly puzzled, but the very next moment, a terrifying pressure descended, followed by an elder appearing in front of them – it was the Heavenly Saint Daoist they met earlier. However, now he looked as withered as a decaying tree, as if he would evaporate with a gust of wind, which indicated that his life was almost at its end.<div>
Nevertheless, his imposing aura remained unshaken. He questioned the two, “You want to cooperate? How can I be sure that everything is real and not an illusion? Previously, to assist the Beast King, you risked everything. Now, you’re suggesting a partnership with me. It’s inevitable that one would suspect this to be a scheme nned by you and the Beast King.”
“Let’s be clear, the Beast King is an ungrateful creep. I once saved his life, but he casually cast my kindness aside, viewing me as a threat and intending to eliminate me. Luckily, I managed to escape. Now, our goals align, we are both targeting the Beast King.”
Logan smiled lightly and looked at the Heavenly Saint Daoist, “An enemy of an enemy is a friend. With your power alone, it would be difficult to deal with the Beast King. The Beast King’s strength is constantly recovering, while your cultivation is being eroded by time. Only by cooperating with me do we stand a chance. You should consider this carefully.”
“How did you manage to escape from the pursuit of the Beast King?” The Heavenly Saint Daoist remained unconvinced. As someone at the same Realm, he understood the terrifying power of this Realm – killing someone like Logan would just require a momentary thought. So, Logan’s exnations were unconvincing; they seemed more like a plot.
Moreover, they were on hostile terms before, so how could Logan cooperate with him now? How could he not be afraid of him making a killing blow out of wrath? Although near his demise, the Heavenly Saint Daoist didn’t wish to die arbitrarily. If he were to be entangled in a scheme plotted by Logan and the Beast King, he would be furious indeed.
“I used the demon beast tribe’s Supreme Treasure as a pawn to gain a one-day chance of escape. Whether you believe it or not, you can consider it yourself. Initially, I was a distinguished guest of the Beast King and could have left freely. Why would I conspire with him to set a trap for you?”
Logan looked at him intently without any hint of lying. This somewhat convinced the Heavenly Saint Daoist. If there really was a of heaven and earth set up, the Beast King would have led his men to pursue him by now. Why would Logan ply him with words?
Perhaps Logan was indeed being hunted by the Beast King. Realizing this truth, the Heavenly Saint Daoist couldn’t help but burst intoughter. He remembered how arrogant Logan had been that day and wondered if Logan had ever expected to one day kowtow to him for cooperation.
With a yful smile, the Heavenly Saint Daoist asked, “If you hadn’t stopped me that day, the Beast King would have been dead by now and you wouldn’t be on the run. Do you ever regret it? That was the worst decision of your life.”
