Chapter 586: Chapter 366 City_2


    Whenever the name Sandy Wexler is mentioned, a trace of envy surfaces in the eyes of the guard captain. Rumoured to be crippled, he used a terrifying array to brutally y a Quasi-Saint Seat, swiftly intimidating all nearby forces. How frightening and powerful is that?


    For the next few decades, it’s likely no one will dare to cause trouble for the Wexler n, and as for myself, I pray that one day I’ll be as outstanding as he is. Sadly, I am still just a small guard captain with a Realm that is merely aplete Throne.


    It was then that Logan understood the reason. It turned out to be because of such an incident. But after he had in the Sect Head of the Supreme Sect that day, peace hade to Sandy Wexler’s side, and it could no longer influence the Scarlet n. As for remaining on guard or even closing the city gates?


    “You’re the head of the guards, go tell Cain Scarlet, just say Logan hase to visit,” Logan said. Since the guard wouldn’t let him in, then let Cain Scarlet personallye to receive him. He believed that as soon as Cain Scarlet heard his name, he would definitely show him this courtesy.


    That day, when he was dealing with the Nango n, he had a brief encounter with Cain Scarlet. He knew his rtionship with Sandy Wexler was not ordinary, and considering that Sandy Wexler now had the power to y a Quasi-Saint Seat, if Cain Scarlet inquired further, he would deduce that Logan was Sandy Wexler’s ally.


    The guard captain hesitated, then said, “Do you think a thousand Spirit Stones can buy me off? What standing do you have to dare to address the Lord by name? I advise you not to look for trouble. Seeing as you gave Spirit Stones just now, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear anything, but there won’t be a next time.”


    “Enough, I don’t want to waste words.” Logan, not wanting to exin any further, leaped onto the city wall with a jump, nning to go directly into the city to find Cain Scarlet.


    Upon seeing this, the guard captain quickly ordered over a hundred bowmen to attack. A sky full of arrows flew like snowkes, causing over a thousand onlookers to gasp in shock. Such a terrifying assault would likely turn even aplete Throne into a sieve.


    One must realize that these arrows were no ordinary ones; they were special arrows imbued with spells, each one forged by a Strong Dominator. Over a hundred arrows were equivalent to over a hundred strikes from Strong Dominators. Everyone scoffed, unable to understand where Logan got the courage to storm the city?


    Logan swung his palm, and the sky full of arrows suddenly fell to the ground as if malfunctioning. Now stepping onto the city wall, he then knocked over a hundred people with another move, and promptly approached the guard captain.<div>


    “Which direction is the Master’s Mansion?” Logan asked. Despite feeling anxious and fearful, the guard captain remained silent and did not respond.


    Being a member of the Scarlet n, how could hepromise with the enemy? So what if Logan knocked him down? The masters from within the city would surely rush over soon, and then Logan would be doomed.


    Cain Scarlet and Bart Cloud also flew up, leaving the thousand onlookers dumbfounded. They too wished to seize the chance to slip into the city, but on second thought, they feared retaliation from the Scarlet n and even being mistaken for Logan’s aplices. After considering it, they decided against it.


    “No need, I know where it is,” Cain Scarlet said, indicating to Logan that there was no need to question the guard captain. After all, he had only left the Scarlet n ten years ago and had spent over thirty years of his life there. Even if the city had changed, the overallyout should remain the same.


    Logan nodded, and the three of them flew into the city. In that moment, the guard captain sounded the rm, and piercing, loud sounds rang out. Every master of the Scarlet n within the city walls became alert and rushed towards the city gates.


    In less than a minute, over a dozen figures had surrounded Logan and hispanions, each one’s strength evident in the Dominator Realm. It was clear they were the Scarlet n’s most powerfulbat force, and each brandished their own divine weapon.


    “How dare you intrude upon the Scarlet n?” one of them scanned Logan and his group and demanded, “Which power has sent you? Do you realize that this act is tantamount to dering war on the Scarlet n? Speak up immediately, or we will take action to suppress you.”


    “Fifth Elder, I am Cain Scarlet,” said Cain Scarlet, recognizing several familiar faces among the dozen, he suddenly identified the speaker and eximed in surprise.


    The leading elder paused in confusion, the name Cain Scarlet indeed rang familiar—as if he was a junior member of the Scarlet n—but he couldn’t quite ce it. After examining Cain Scarlet more carefully, realization dawned; wasn’t this the man who had erred ten years ago and been driven out of the Scarlet n?


    The Fifth Elder ordered the others to sheathe their weapons and then inquired, “You were exiled for your mistakes all those years ago, and you return today without so much as a word of warning? Do you intend to seek revenge against the Lord?”


    “It’s a long story. I did not actually err; the Scarlet n needed some spies to gather intelligence on other powers. That’s why the Lord exiled a dozen or so of us from the Scarlet n—merely as a ruse to avoid suspicion,” Cain Scarlet exined.


    Now that he had returned to the Scarlet n, Cain Scarlet spoke the truth, “I have important intelligence. Could I possibly be arranged to see the Lord immediately? It’s a matter of life and death for the entire Scarlet n, and perhaps even for the nearby lords.”


    The Fifth Elder fell into deep thought, mulling over the truthfulness behind Cain Scarlet’s words. It wasmon knowledge that he hadmitted a grave mistake and was expelled from the Scarlet n. Yet now, Cain Scarlet imed all of that was an act for the Lord, merely a cover for his true mission to spy on other forces.


    Would he really tell such a lie? After all, his deceit would be exposed the moment he met the Lord, unless he intended to harm the Lord and was tricking them. Then again, the Lord was a Quasi-Saint—these three posed no threat byparison. This made the Fifth Elder believe Cain Scarlet was likely telling the truth.


    The Fifth Elder offered a faint smile and said, “The Lord is not in the city, but he should return in a moment. How about you go to the Master’s Mansion and wait there?”


    “That will be fine,” Cain Scarlet replied. Despite his urgency, he had no other choice. If his interception by the Demonic Sky Gate had failed, they would surely enact their n immediately, just as the nearby Great Lords were on the cusp of danger. Regardless, apart from the Lord, he trusted no one else.


    Once arriving at the City Lord’s Manor, the Fifth Elder ordered some tea for Logan and hispanions while he went to inform the Vice Lord so she could investigate the matter.


    Vice Lord Amilia Scarlet heard the full story and said, “The Lord did send out a number of spies back then, but there’s no certainty that Cain Scarlet was one of them. I’ll ask him personally. How curious, a spy suddenly returning—it just doesn’t make sense.”


    Even if a spy uncovered something major, they would typicallymunicate via written messages; an abrupt return to the Scarlet n meant either failure or defection. Regardless of which, Cain Scarlet was under suspicion and could not be trusted lightly. Perhaps he was plotting something grand and nefarious.<div>


    Satisfied that the Vice Lord had taken over, the Fifth Elder breathed a sigh of relief and left with his group. As the most revered figure beneath the Lord in the Scarlet n, Vice Lord Amilia’s credibility was untarnished—she had always been loyal and was respected among the n.


    No sooner did they reach the hall than Vice Lord Amilia aimed to intimidate them, “Who dares tarnish the name of the Scarlet n? We’ve never deployed any spies. What is your true purpose?”


    “Vice Lord, I am Cain Scarlet,” he quickly approached her upon recognizing the neer. As a coteral descendant of the Scarlet n, he was not of the same direct lineage as Vice Lord Amilia.


    Vice Lord Amilia recognized Cain Scarlet but remained skeptical, “Typically, spies spend their lives within other Sects, returning only upon death or the Sect’s demise. Otherwise, they wouldn’te back so easily. Why have you returned to the Scarlet n?”<div>


    “It’s a matter of utmost urgency.” Cain Scarlet didn’t intend to hold back any longer. “Spies nted by the three Great Lords and Seven Major Sects have discovered something inmon: the Demonic Sky Gate intends to strike against us, having assembled dozens of Dominators and hundreds of Kings.”


    “Is that true?” Amilia couldn’t help but gasp, aware of the Demonic Sky Gate’s notorious reputation as the number one heinous power of the Demon Path. They were known for brutality and were mortal enemies to all Great Lords and Sects, with rtionships as irreconcble as fire and water.
