Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 570: Chapter 359 Encounter_2

For instance, the elder by his side. Whoever the Daoist protecting Logan might be, he’s only at the King’s Throne level. He doesn’t seem like someone dispatched from a prominent sect, at least from the elder’s viewpoint. But regardless, they can’t back down now. Their Supreme Sect is the number one sect in this area.

Even if Logan has an impressive background, which sect could possibly compare to the Supreme Sect? The Sect Leader of the Supreme Sect – his own father, is already a Quasi-Saint. There is no sect in the world that stands above a Quasi-Saint, except for those who’ve secluded themselves, unaffected by the happenings of the Ancient World.

The elder took a deep breath, feeling that the Young Master had a point. “Perhaps I’m overthinking, there’s no need to fight Logan. Simply state that the previous issue was just a misunderstanding. Although it might be embarrassing, it can help avoid unnecessary troubles.”

The Daoist’s role is not only to protect the Young Master but also to teach him the ways of the world. His Young Master has always been too arrogant. He looks down on everything, thinking that the Sect can afford to offend anyone. But what happens if he crosses someone he can’t handle in the future?

Lila Summer couldn’t accept it and her eyes flashed with depth and coldness, “Are you going to fight for me? Who is the true Young Master of the Sect? Don’t forget that you are just a Daoist. There are over ten Strong Dominators in the Sect. Do you believe that I can ask my father to replace you with another Daoist?”

Upon hearing her words, the elder panicked. Being a Daoist in service of the Young Master was an extraordinary honor. If the Young Master ever ascends to become the Sect Leader of the Supreme Sect, he would become the Grand Elder or at worst, a secondary Elder; something many in the Sect could only dream of.

“What are you mumbling about, are you going to fight or not?” Logan, who had been standing there, felt annoyed. He couldn’t help but feel these two were acting like lunatics, loud and arrogant one moment, then whispering to each other the next.

In fact, Logan would often wonder, why did everyone assume he had the backing of a major sect after witnessing his strength? Couldn’t he cultivate on his own to this level of power? Is it impossible to raise strong ones without the resources of sects or family clans?

The elder swung his Technique and swiftly advanced towards Logan, attacking powerfully. Yet, Logan easily blocked his moves and with a quick counter, pushed the elder back several steps. Logan’s strength now far exceeded a Strong Dominator; only a Half-Step Saint Seat opponent could contend him equally.

In five rounds of confrontation, the elder was repeatedly beaten into a sorry state. Moreover, Logan was only using half of his strength. Though the elder had reached the Dominator Realm, his true power was equal to Perfect King’s Seat, which was significantly inflated.

Observing the increasing number of onlookers, Logan did not want to continue fighting. With a casual blow, he sent the old man flying several tens of meters before he coughed blood and fainted. This scene left Lila Summer, who was swaggering around just moments ago, dumbfounded.

But now she was overwhelmed with panic. The only thought running through her mind was to escape. However, Logan blocked her path and she had nowhere to go. Logan was not in a good mood towards Lila summer. They didn’t even have a prior issue, yet she was asking for Spirit Stones out of nowhere.

“What should I do with you?” Logan playfully smiled and said, “I gave it some thought. It might be best to destroy your entire cultivation base. This way, you can’t cause trouble in the future. I’d be doing a good deed. What do you think of this punishment?”

Terrified, Lila Summer hastily blurted out, “I am the Young Master of the Supreme Sect! You better think about the consequences. My father’s wrath is not something you can withstand. Why not let me go? I will pretend nothing happened.”

“Is that a threat? Well, I’ve never heard of the Supreme Sect,” Logan shook his head. “Your reasoning isn’t convincing. Had you admitted your mistake and apologized earlier, I would have forgiven you. But you’re still acting high and mighty.”

“Young man, perhaps you should let Lila Summer go. Her sect is not something you can confront alone. Don’t make powerful enemies over minor gains or losses. Currently, the citizens in this city are living in fear due to the infiltration of various sects.”

“The Supreme Sect brings forth a Quasi-Saint, however, there are dozens of Strong Dominators. In the past, we would not have feared for our city, but now, rumors that our Lord Sandy Wexler has lost his cultivation abilities are causing many powers and sects to become restless.”

“Though it is good to show mercy when you can, teaching Lila Summer a lesson should be enough. If we resort to total eradication, what would happen if it engulfs the whole city? Perhaps you have a powerful sect to back you up, but our situation is different. Our ultimate reliance is our Lord.”

“Half of the tens of millions of people in the city are below the King’s Seat, majority are merely in the Mythical Mirror realm. They cannot protect themselves facing these sects, and now we cannot be sure whether the Lord is still protecting us. If rumors are true, it will be terrible.”

The spectators voiced their concerns, hoping Logan would show mercy. After all, crippling a sect’s young master’s cultivation abilities is a major ordeal. This provocation towards the Supreme Sect is akin to declaring war. No one could bear their wrath.

Logan smiled in amusement, addressing the crowd: “I would have spared Lila Summer, but they were the first to err. I naturally cannot back down. Besides, the incident of our Lord losing his cultivation abilities caused many sects to become predatory. Now is the time to make an example.”

If they continue to tolerate, it will only confirm to all ambitious sects one thing: the rumor about the Lord’s lost cultivation abilities is real. A display of overwhelming might, will force those sects to retreat and refrain from causing troubles in this city.

Yesterday, Logan was a bit dissatisfied with Sandy Wexler. He couldn’t understand why he only sentenced Jake Wexler to three hundred years, instead of killing him directly. However, this is their city’s internal affair. As an outsider, Logan didn’t question it.

Now he suddenly understands. Sandy Wexler must have anticipated the attraction of many forces, therefore, Jake Wexler’s Half-step Saint Seat strength is crucial. After all, he has indeed lost his cultivation abilities. If they lack protection from a strong force, the city will crumble quickly.

The spectators didn’t voice their opinions. After all, this is a dispute between Logan and Lila Summer. Could they, outsiders, attack Logan? Everyone has witnessed Logan’s strength: he is definitely a powerful figure beyond the Dominator level.

Bart Cloud sighed heavily: “Even though the crisis of the city-protecting array is resolved, the real crisis and strife within the city seem to be just beginning. The weak seek self-preservation, while the strong contemplate how to acquire more benefits.”

Logan neither agreed nor argued. If the city lacks a powerful suppressor, the situation will worsen. This is only the beginning. Many forces have entered the city, but they will still test Sandy Wexler’s capabilities.

Only when they are sure he has lost his cultivation abilities, will these sects reveal their fangs. If Sandy Wexler is still a Quasi-Saint Seat, their actions would be like lifting a rock only to drop it on their own feet. Who could bear the wrath of a Quasi-Saint? These sects know this first hand.

Logan shook his head, distracting himself from these concerns. Instead, he wondered how to deal with Lila Summer. Both he and Bart Cloud planned to leave early this morning. Crippling Lila Summer’s cultivation directly would undoubtedly leave a mess for Sandy Wexler.

“Why bother about all this?” Logan suddenly enlightened. His encounter with Sandy Wexler was just a chance meeting. Even if the city will descend into chaos, it has no relation to him, especially when Lila Summer is provoking him. She deserves to pay a heavy price.”

This was Logan being restrained. After all, he only crippled her cultivation, sparing her life, isn’t it? Similar to when Logan first arrived at the Ancient Instance, where the son of the Grand Elder was involved, resulting in his demise due to Logan’s plot.

Logan exerted his terrifying power towards her Dantian, causing it to explode the next moment. Lila Summer screamed in despair, knowing too well what losing her cultivation meant. As someone from a major sect, she understood the tragic and miserable life that awaited her.
