Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 524: Chapter 337 Loss_2

The leaders of the other two sects did not suffer any losses and thus chose to adopt a wait and see attitude. They were also not quite satisfied with the Heavenly Sword Sect, but they knew that taking action would lead to heavy losses. It was better to remain idle and watch the others fight and injure each other.

The leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect darkened his face. He considered himself very powerful, but when faced with three half-step Sanctuary Powerhouses, he had no intent to fight. He estimated that he would not last half an hour if they started fighting.

He even failed to understand what the Heavenly Sword Sect had done wrong to provoke such fury. Several sects were now hell-bent on a fight to the death against him. Could all of this be part of Logan’s plot?

“Consider this carefully, the three of you may have more people, but if I steel my heart for a fight, the final outcome will be both parties suffering losses. If my life is threatened, I will surely self-destruct and take all of you down with me.”

Due to his disadvantages, the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader didn’t want to fight, so he could only resort to threats. He hoped that his words would make them give way. During normal times, he might have some confidence, but at this point, these are not people to be easily fooled.

Celica Shingo faintly smiled, saying with a gloomy gaze, “We don’t have to resolve this rapidly. We will wear down your spiritual energy and divine skills little by little, just like boiling a frog in warm water. Even with many divine skills and strategies, you can not escape death.”

“Would the two of you really choose to stand by and watch the fight? I advise you to think carefully. If the Heavenly Sword Sect leader is gone, neither of you will get a share of the spoils. It is better for us to combine forces and directly split the Heavenly Sword Sect.”

The Flying Flow Sect leader turned to the other two leaders, suggesting that three was still a small number. If he could persuade the two to join, the combined power of five people would leave the Heavenly Sword Sect leader completely helpless, ensuring perfect safety and avoiding any mishaps.

The two bystander leaders pondered their choices. Since the situation could not be reversed at this point, they must align with one side. However, they played an important role. If they helped the Heavenly Sword Sect, it would become a three versus three situation. Then, with the Heavenly Sword Sect leader who could fight against two, Celica Shingo and his group would undoubtedly lose.

If they assisted Celica Shingo, it’s needless to say, five against one would certainly not lose. The two remained silent, watching the bargaining chips from both sides. Whoever offered more, they would help them. In that case, they would be the biggest winners in this dispute.

The Heavenly Sword Sect leader was the most desperate. He shouted in anger, “Join forces with me, and the Heavenly Sword Sect is willing to give each of you one million spirit stones, and hand over the hundred most talented among our sect, and contribute one hundred thousand spirit stones each year.

To survive, he did not hesitate to offer any condition, causing the other sect leaders to take a breath. The Heavenly Sword Sect leader did indeed have nerve. The three were worried that his words might sway the two previously non-involved leaders, so they hurriedly offered their own terms.

“Each of the three sect leaders will give one million spirit stones, isn’t that more than what the Heavenly Sword Sect offered? For the rest, we’re not going to be like the Heavenly Sword Sect, but you should think calmly. Will the Heavenly Sword Sect honestly keep its promises if they win?”

Celica Shingo looked at the two, and said word for word: “Don’t hesitate. Each of our sects have sacrificed strong ones because of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Although you have not lost anyone, you should understand the principle that when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. We’re all in the same boat.”

The two leaders were initially hesitant, but after listening to Celica Shingo, they came to a realization. They indeed could not cooperate with the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader. What if he reneged upon his promises? Even if the two of them combined forces, they would not be his match.

Besides, if the Heavenly Sword Sect could ruthlessly kill several dominators from the three sects today, there would come a day when they would end up on the chopping block. What countermeasures should they have in place then? Therefore, potential threats must not be left behind, even if they could not receive a single spiritual stone.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect saw the two of them were swayed, and urgently offered a higher price: “No, if a million Spirit Stones are not enough, I can give three million, and I am willing to transfer half of our sect to you. From now on, how about the three of us manage the Heavenly Sword Sect together and you two rule over us?”

“No need. You’re completely untrustworthy, no matter how big the stake you propose, the two of us will definitely not cooperate with you. The Heavenly Sword Sect has been rampant and tyrannical over the years, killing many powerhouses among our sects. Today, it’s time for us to settle the score with blood!”

The two Sect Leaders were determined and then moved to stand next to Celica Shingo and his team, forming an opposition against the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect. At this point, the five Sect Leaders had officially formed an alliance, jointly declaring a life-or-death war against the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect gave a bitter smile and couldn’t help but self-mockingly said: “A lack of assistance for those who lose their path. If I had maintained a good relationship with you fellow Sect Leaders before, I wouldn’t have fallen into this predicament today. I have always been a powerhouse about to step into the Saint Seat.”

Although he said so, he knew in his heart that even if the relationships were good before, under Logan’s successive manipulations, and without any evidence to relieve the Heavenly Sword Sect of suspicion, a great battle with the Sect Leaders was inevitable. Before, he had been hoping their boldness wouldn’t cause things to get too stiff.

Regretting deeply, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect summoned his Dharma device: “Fine, I’m only one opportunity away from becoming a Saint, perhaps in this one versus five, I can find that threshold. Once I become a Saint, I will certainly obliterate all your sects.”

“We’ll see if you have what it takes!” Celica Shingo and the others also drew their weapons, with the principles of technique revolving their Dharma devices, and waves of Divine Skills began to burst out of them. The strength of a Half-step Saint Seat stifled everyone in the vicinity.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect was the first to attack, and being in such a disadvantageous position, he had to break through one point to win. If he could kill one Half-step Saint Seat within several rounds, it would definitely put the remaining people in a state of lowered morale.

The other Sect Leaders also conceded that the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect was the most powerful among them. Although they were all Half-Step Saints, only the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect was a small step away from the Saint Seat. Sadly, the Sect Leader was only an old man on his last legs with a lifespan of a few decades left. Naturally, he couldn’t exert the top-notch strength of a Half-Step Saint Seat.

The moment the five of them acted, they not only blocked the attack from the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect but even landed a sword strike on him. It was only when a bloody wound appeared that he realized that it was a matter of survival.

“Secret Technique, Cloud Technique!” The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect took a stance, followed by plumes of crimson smoke filling the surroundings, obscuring everyone’s vision. Even the Half-Step Saints seemingly didn’t have Divine Skills to disperse the smoke.

Despite being outnumbered, it was the only way to win. In a situation where the five of them couldn’t always focus their attacks, he could keep ambushing from within the smoke and soon enough pave a way out with blood.

Just when he was feeling complacent, Celica Shingo faintly opened his mouth: “We are all Half-Step Saints, don’t you think you’ve oversimplified things? Let’s show you our Shingo Sect’s secret technique that won’t let you hide even in the fog.”

As Celica Shingo spoke, he waved his sleeve, and a golden light shot out, illuminating the entire fog-covered area. Though it didn’t make their vision clear, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect could no longer hide like the rest of them.

Unlike the other Sect Leaders, not only did Celica Shingo hold a grudge for his Sect, but he sought justice for his son, Lowen Shingo. Therefore, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect must die today, and after today, the Heavenly Sword Sect would cease to exist.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to keep running, but the Leader of the Flying Flow Sect sent out a Divine Skill like an ancient bell falling from the sky, instantly limiting his movements. No matter how he tried to flash away using the Great Law principles, it was futile.
