Chapter 639: Chapter 395 Breakthrough_1


    Logan was well aware that each of the five Sect Leaders possessed a formidable foundation. It wouldn’t be difficult for the five to join forces against the Holy See. These five were far stronger than the three Lords of the Western Wastnd, each possessing Emperor Weapons and Divine Weapons. There was no need for Logan to intervene unless it was absolutely necessary.


    Bart Cloud had been in constant cultivation, and these past few days, due to the rich spiritual energy of Saint Sky Sect, he had been teetering on the verge of a breakthrough from the perfected Throne realm. However, he was missing that sliver of opportunity. For any ordinary Cultivator, reaching Dominator Realm at this stage would be rtively easy.


    But Bart Cloud was different. When he broke through the Throne realm, he experienced the Thunder Tribtion Baptism, so his breakthrough to the Dominator would also inevitably invite Thunder Tribtion. At this moment, Bart Cloud was like a Walker on the edge of a knife de—whether he could soar to the heavens depended entirely on his own conviction.


    To be safe, Logan had been keeping watch in the courtyard all this time. Of course, he was updated daily on the situation of Saint Sky Sect through others’ ounts.


    In the past two days, Peregrine Azure and several others from the Aurelius Azure were extremely anxious. They had sent Peregrine Azure more than once to inquire about Logan’s stance on the looming threat of the Blood Drinking Sect’s forces. Faced with Peregrine Azure’s indirect probing, Logan had always been nonchnt, shrouding Peregrine Azure in fog.


    Time passed, and eventually, the several Sect Leaders met with Aurelius Azure: “Sect Leader, we’ve received no response from Logan. What is he nning to do, exactly? Maybe we should go ask him together, so we can be mentally prepared. The uncertainty is making us all uneasy.”


    “I’ve sent Peregrine Azure five or six times today to no avail,” Aurelius Azuremented, equally frustrated. He was just as anxious, but to no avail. Logan hadn’t shown any stance, acting as if he werepletely disinterested in the situation in Central Region. Could they really force Logan to take action?


    “Let’s all go together. You sent only Peregrine Azure before; Logan must feel undervalued. It’s only proper that we five Sect Leaders personally visit,” the Northern Sacred Gate Leader said righteously, and the other Sect Leaders nodded in agreement. Indeed, sending Peregrine Azure was inadequate, especially since Logan had the capability to y the Holy See, putting him a notch above them as Sect Leaders. It would naturally feel dismissive to be questioned by a mere Vice Sect Leader.


    Aurelius Azure hesitated for a long time but eventually capitted: “Then let’s all go together. However, be cautious, everyone. Do not show your Sect Leader arrogance. Don’t think that you can bully Logan just because he’s young. He’s shrewder than us in dealing with people by a significant margin.”


    “Don’t worry, we’re not fools,” the Sect Leaders responded with a collective eye-roll to Aurelius Azure. Facing a young man capable of ying the Holy See, how could they dare underestimate him? Moreover, the Sect and lineage capable of nurturing such a Strong One like Logan were sure to be even more formidable.


    Before long, the group arrived at Logan’s courtyard. At the time, Logan was leisurely sipping tea. Seeing them arrive, he guessed their intentions, but he didn’t show it explicitly. Instead, he waved them over to join him for tea, assuming the demeanor of a host.


    “Make yourselves at home, no need to be formal,” Logan said as he poured tea for them, which caused Aurelius Azure to feel a little abashed. Logan’s bearing almost made him forget whose courtyard they were in; he almost thought he was truly a guest at Logan’s ce.


    Aurelius Azure coughed to clear his throat, ncing at the other Sect Leaders: “Let me introduce you. These are the Leaders of the other four of the Five Great Sects of Central Region. We usually preside over the four directions of Central Region. Saint Sky Sect is at the center, and the names of our Sects correspond to the directions.”


    “I’ve long admired you, Hero emerging from the youth!” The others greeted Logan with a bow, and Logan, not one to act superior, responded with a greeting in kind.


    “The forces of the Blood Drinking Sect, in alliance with over a hundred other Sects, have now encircled Saint Sky Sect. With Saint Sky Sect’s resources, we won’t have to worry about food for decades. But if Saint Sky Sect remains trapped, what of the countless ordinary people of Central Region? They’d surely be ughtered by the Blood Drinking Sect.”


    Aurelius Azure let out a long sigh, getting to the crux of the issue: “So… since Saint Sky Sect has lost a Holy See, we have an unwee request for you. You received fifty million Spirit Stones in the Western Wastnd to take action… ”


    “Stop right there,” Aurelius Azure was interrupted midway by Logan: “Let me rify something. I didn’t take those fifty million Spirit Stones for myself; they were used to set up the array against the Holy See. Don’t spread rumors, especially in my presence.”


    This statement annoyed Logan. It seemed as though the fifty million Spirit Stones had been pocketed by him, which was not the case. Back in the Western Wastnd, he already felt ufortable about the situation, and now it was being brought up again, even though he had acted entirely in the three Lords’ interests, helping them deal with Demonic Sky Gate.


    Aurelius Azure realized he had misspoken and hurried to amend: “Please don’t misunderstand; I’m not the best with words. You are a great Hero of the Western Wastnd, having eradicated the long-standing Demonic Sky Gate and spared the Western Wastnd from untold suffering, something we all greatly admire.”


    “It’s not about the Spirit Stones, we understand,” the Eastern Sacred Gate Sect Leader cut in: “The situation in Central Region is even moreplicated now. We too can offer Spirit Stones, so you can set up an array against the Blood Drinking Sect. Just name the amount, and we willply without any objection.”


    “Apart from providing Spirit Stones for the array set up, we can also offer you Spirit Stones as a reward,” the Northern Sacred Gate Leader said. Although unsure how much the three Spirit Lords had offered as a reward, they of the Five Great Sects of Central Region were much wealthier. As long as Logan named his price, they could afford it.
