Chapter 668: 409 Righteousness and Demonic _2



From the moment Thornwell Nango set foot on the snowy mountain, the Orthodox Demonic Sect had been quietly following behind. This allowed the perfect execution of their ambush, and even though the attack injured Thornwell Nango, he rushed over regardless of his pain, thinking of his father’s illness.

“Stubborn fool, the difference in our realms is too great!” Benjamin Blackwood chuckled coldly and kicked out again, causing Thornwell Nango to suffer another serious injury.

Seeing this, the other dozen or so disciples joined the attack on Benjamin Blackwood, catching him off guard with the Divine Rune Logan had previously used.

Looking at his wounds, Benjamin Blackwood was quite surprised, “You do have some tricks up your sleeves to be able to inflict such injuries on me. But it’s a pity that the gap in our realms is too great, it’s not something a few runes can rectify!”

“However, I don’t want to stay on this snowy mountain, so I will take my leave. Without the century-old Snow Lotus, your Cloud Sky Sect is doomed!”

Benjamin Blackwood laughed haughtily, very smugly preparing to leave, a scene that naturally did not escape Logan’s watchful eyes. He leaped forward in a single bound to intervene.

Seeing Logan block his way, Benjamin Blackwood was naturally terrified, for this man’s strength was overwhelming, having easily routed him with a single move yesterday.

“I’m no match for you, but if you keep blocking me, your companions won’t stand a chance against the Demon Beast guardian!” Benjamin Blackwood said darkly, pointing at Bart Cloud.

“The Demon Beast is the Snow Lotus’s guardian. We don’t have the Snow Lotus in our possession, so I can easily call Bart Cloud off. Guess who the Demon Beast will attack?”

Logan sneered, and then stretched out his hand, “Hand over the Snow Lotus obediently, or else I will have no choice but to slay you. Weigh your options carefully.”

Having finally gotten the Snow Lotus, Benjamin Blackwood naturally wasn’t willing to give it up easily, but on the peak of this snowy mountain, he had no other escape routes.

In a few moments of thought, Benjamin Blackwood directly threw the Snow Lotus towards the Demon Beast, reasoning that if he couldn’t have it, he wouldn’t let Logan’s side benefit either, preferring to return the Snow Lotus to the Demon Beast yet again.

Having regained the Snow Lotus, the Demon Beast placed it on its back, and then let out a sky-shaking roar, causing the entire mountain to tremble as if it were about to collapse.

Logan was naturally furious, and a murderous intent spread, “You’ve made the wrong choice, and you will not leave here alive today.”

Benjamin Blackwood dared to throw the Snow Lotus because he had a backup plan. He quickly dashed toward the Demon Beast, hoping to provoke a battle between it and Logan so he could slip away in the chaos.

Moreover, having returned the Snow Lotus, such a high-level Demon Beast surely must have high intelligence; it certainly wouldn’t harm him. Benjamin Blackwood’s calculations were meticulous, but he had only taken a few steps when he was harshly struck from behind by a Divine Skill unleashed by Logan.

The next moment, Logan arrived with a step and ended Benjamin Blackwood’s life with a single slash, not giving him any face and preventing him from continuing to pit him against the Demon Beast in a life-or-death fight, which was a sin.

Thornwell Nango, severely injured, looked at the Snow Lotus on the back of the Demon Beast, longing to take it, but he could barely stand.

Logan then re-engaged in battle, and under the fierce attacks from him and Bart Cloud, the Demon Beast was forced to retreat, still refusing to surrender the Snow Lotus.

The battle was occurring at the top of the snowy mountain, and the destruction caused by a prolonged fight could lead to the mountain’s collapse. At this moment, Logan felt anxious inside.

In terms of strength, he was overwhelmingly superior, but the kill would not happen instantly; it would take at least another hundred moves. But could the summit hold out that long?

So Logan took a step back and looked at the Demon Beast, “It’s just a century-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, and I believe there should be no shortage on this mountain. Why do you insist on protecting it at the cost of your life?”

“This isn’t a century-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, but a millennium one. The Snow Lotus is already nine hundred and ninety years old. I have waited here for hundreds of years just to wait for the Snow Lotus to reach a millennium, to help me break through to Quasi-Saint, or even Saint Seat in one fell swoop.”

The Demon Beast stopped for a long time, then spoke in human language, “I don’t have more than two hundred years to live. Without the millennium Snow Lotus, I will die and vanish from this path soon.”

“Then, are there any century-old Snow Lotuses?” Logan was stunned for a moment. He had thought this one was a century-old Snow Lotus, not expecting it to actually be an even more precious existence. Millennium Snow Lotuses are rare in the entire Ancient World, and it can be said that not even one in a thousand century-old Snow Lotuses might survive that long.

Was this a misunderstanding? Thornwell Nango and his party also felt somewhat embarrassed, after all, they had only come for the century-old Snow Lotus, even though the millennium one had better medicinal effects.

“There are quite a few century-old Snow Lotuses. There are dozens of them on the summit of this snow mountain. You can go there to pick them; every year, many Semi-Saints come!”

The Demon Beast pointed in a direction, then continued, “If you covet the millennium Snow Lotus, don’t blame me for not being polite. I would rather destroy myself and bring down the entire mountaintop, dying together with everyone.”

“We are not after the millennium Snow Lotus, we apologize for our earlier offense,” said Thornwell Nango as he walked over and bowed to the Demon Beast as a sign of apology.

“Snow Lotuses are ownerless items, including this millennium one. The strongest takes possession, and as a Demon Beast, I understand this principle. On the contrary, I should thank you for not seizing it by force.”

The Demon Beast replied, then carefully placed the Snow Lotus into the snow pond. Now that it had been picked, it only had the mountain’s snow water to rely on for survival.

Logan and his group walked in the direction the Demon Beast had pointed, and indeed they saw many Snow Lotuses, which should all be a century old. Thornwell Nango picked a Snow Lotus, and the other dozen or so people did not plan to compete for them. They decided to pick a few decade-old ones halfway down the mountain instead.

For Logan, century-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotuses were also very useful for cultivation, so he took a few. Of course, there were still half left there. If there was a need in the future, he could come back, otherwise, taking all of them would be a fatal blow to the entire population of Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotuses.

Afterward, the group left the snow mountain. Compared to the difficulty of ascending the mountain, going downhill did not require braving the wind and snow, so it took only four hours to return to the camp.

Looking at the century-old Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus in hand, Thornwell Nango was eager to hurry back to the Eastern Territory, so he bowed and said, “Benefactor, I need to take the Snow Lotus back to save someone, so I must take my leave!”

“Don’t be so hasty. Even though you’ve killed the Orthodox Demonic Sect’s Benjamin Blackwood, do you think the Orthodox Demonic Sect will just watch you take the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus back and save someone?”

Logan stopped Thornwell Nango and said seriously, “I’m afraid they will send a strong one to intercept you, and it won’t just be a Dominator like before. A Semi-Saint Strong One will likely come.”

“I have thought of that, which is why I plan to head south to meet up with another group from a Sect that came looking for Snow Lotus. They are led by a Grand Elder, who is already at the Half-step Saint Seat!”

Thornwell Nango, looking at the Snow Lotus in his hand, spoke word by word, “No matter what, even if it costs my life, I must take the Snow Lotus back. It’s not only about the survival of the Cloud Sky Sect but also the safety of the entire Eastern Territory. Otherwise, the Orthodox Demonic Sect will be unrivaled in the Eastern Territory.”

“That could work. Anyway, I have to stay in the Extreme Cold Lands for over ten days. I’ll escort you part of the way and help you meet up with that Grand Elder!”

Logan spoke up. He had taken a liking to Thornwell Nango, and moreover, he was naturally opposed to the Demon Path, having wiped out two Top Sects in a row. It delighted Logan to make the Demon Sects suffer losses.

Upon hearing this, Thornwell Nango naturally showed a hint of joy. With Logan’s assistance along the way, what did he have to fear from the pursuit of the Orthodox Demonic Sect? From their conversation the previous day, he knew well that Logan was a tough character, unmatched in both the Central Region and the Western Wasteland.

“Won’t it be too troublesome?” Thornwell Nango bowed, as Logan had already helped him several times, and this time he had to be escorted to the southern edge of the Extreme Cold Lands, at least hundreds of miles away, and further complicated by the constant snowstorms, indeed a test for anyone.

Logan gave Thornwell Nango an exasperated look and said somewhat speechlessly, “If you don’t want me to, I don’t have to go. Bart Cloud and I can continue to wait for the Ancient Secret Realm!”

“No, thank you, benefactor!” Upon hearing Logan might change his mind, Thornwell Nango was dumbfounded. He had only meant to politely decline, yet Logan had taken him seriously. He was actually eager for Logan to escort him.
