Chapter 3872: Internal Conflict

“How is it going?”

After Xue Ming Zhi’s daughter and Zhong Can left, his expression was grim as he sent a message to his old friend. He had met his friend during his younger days and trusted his friend implicitly. Otherwise, he would not have asked his friend to help him look for two death warriors who were intermediate Lords of Gods

It was common for forces in the Realms of Gods to cultivate death warriors. The stronger the force, the stronger the death warriors would be. Most ordinary forces’ death warriors were only gods. As for lord-rank forces, their death warriors were mostly Kings of Gods. Following that, emperor-rank forces’ death warriors were mostly Lords of Gods. This was not surprising since the strength of the death warriors depended on the esources the forces could provide.

As for the Flying Dragon Sect, they only had a handful of death warriors who were rudimentary Lords of Gods. It was said that there was only one intermediate Lord of Gods among the death warriors. No one could verify the rumor since traditions dictated that the death warriors were under the direct control of the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect.

“I found them. However, the price of two death warriors who are intermediate Lords of Gods isn’t cheap.”

Xue Ming Zhi asked, “How much is it?”

“I’m still trying to bargain with them, but it’ll still be exorbitant. Old Xue, a suicide mission will cost you an arm and a leg. Naturally, the price will be lower if they don’t have to risk their lives. Tell me. Is it a suicide mission? Are the risks very high?”

“What do you think? After killing someone in the Flying Dragon Sect’s estate, do you think they’ll be able to preserve their lives? Why do you think I wanted death warriors?”

Xue Ming Zhi waited quite a while before he received another reply.

“You mentioned that your target is just a kid who recently became a rudimentary Lords of Gods, right?”

Xue Ming Zhi replied, “Yes. However, you shouldn’t underestimate him because of that. His strength is almost comparable to an intermediate Lord of Gods even though he had just become a rudimentary Lord of Gods recently.”

After Duan Ling Tian managed to survive Kuang Tian Zheng’s assassination attempt, Xue Ming Zhi no longer dared to underestimate Duan Ling Tian.

“What if you hire two rudimentary Lords of Gods and one intermediate Lord of Gods instead?”

Xue Ming Zhi frowned upon hearing his friend’s suggestion. He said, “The price for two rudimentary Lords of Gods should be the same as the price of hiring one intermediate Lord of Gods, right? What’s the difference?”

Cultivating two death warriors who were rudimentary Lords of Gods was not any easier than cultivating one death warrior who was an intermediate Lord of Gods.

His friend laughed and replied, “Of course, there’s a difference! Do you think the death warriors I found are the same as the death warriors that the Flying Dragon Sect cultivated? The death warriors I found are cultivated by Supreme Gods. Even if their cultivation bases aren’t high, they’re experts in soul techniques. Not only that, but their memories are also implanted to avoid unnecessary trouble. They’re Soulshifter Death Warriors. You’ve heard of them, right?”

“Soulshifter Death Warriors?” Xue Ming Zhi was shocked. “How did you manage to find them? I didn’t know you had connections in such high places!”

“I’m not looking down on you, but I don’t think you’ll be able to pay for two Soulshifter Death Warriors who are intermediate Lords of Gods even if you give up your entire fortune. In any case, I think two rudimentary Lords of Gods and one intermediate Lord of Gods are enough to kill your target.”

Xue Ming Zhi thought about it for a moment before he replied, “Alright. However, one of the rudimentary Lords of Gods should comprehend the law of space since the target comprehended the law of space as well. Otherwise, it’d be easy for the target to teleport away.”

In Xue Ming Zhi’s opinion, Duan Ling Tian only managed to escape from Kuang Tian Zhang due to the Teleportation Profundity from the law of space. He also thought that Kuang Tian Zheng should have used his bloodline power sooner.

“Alright. Let me speak to them again…”

However, before his friend replied, Xue Ming Zhi sent another message.

“Forget it. I still want to hire two intermediate Lords of Gods. I’ll pay whatever price they demand. If the divine rocks and divine crystals aren’t enough, I’ll replace them with something of equal or higher value. That shouldn’t be a problem, right? I’ll ask my trusted disciple to deliver the payment to you.”

“Of course, that’s not a problem. Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll speak to the two intermediate Lords of Gods. Do you already have a plan? Do you plan to let them join the sect and wait for a chance to attack?”

…

On the Lord Battlefield.

A purple figure flew at lightning speed in the sky above a vast plain.

‘The size of the Lord Battlefield is almost similar to that of the King Battlefield, but there are fewer people here. I’ve been traveling for two months now, and I’ve yet to meet another person.’

In the beginning, when Duan Ling Tian just entered the Lord Battlefield, he had been very cautious. However, as time passed, he did not meet anyone so he gradually let his guard down. After two months, he flew around fearlessly as though he had forgotten there were people in here who were a threat to him.

‘There are too few people here. Moreover, I don’t think the Lords of Gods will travel in groups,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘How boring. I can’t even cultivate, comprehend the law of space, or refine divine pills in here due to the lack of Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in here. I can only continue to search for people.’

At this time, Duan Ling Tian felt as though he was going to have a breakdown before he even met anyone from the Tai Yi Sect. When he was on the King Battlefield, although it was not too easy to run into his opponents, it was nowhere near this difficult. Moreover, he ran into members of the Flying Dragon Sect rather frequently as well. However, after spending two months here, he had not seen anyone from the Flying Dragon Sect and the Tai Yi Sect. At this point, he did not even mind if he came across members of the Flying Dragon Sect. All he wanted was to see another human being.

About two hours later, Duan Ling Tian’s prayers were finally answered.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When he passed through a mountain range and appeared in a frozen land, he heard the sounds of a battle.

The sounds of explosion and the sounds of glaciers shattering rang in the air.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up immediately like a starving wolf that had found its prey.

Swoosh!

Duan Ling Tian hurriedly teleported in the direction of the commotion. Although he was very excited, he was still very clear-minded. He hid behind a glacier and observed the situation first instead of charging out recklessly.

The void rippled and twisted as a streak of blue and red energy clashed in the air.

A middle-aged man and a young man fought fiercely. When they collided, the frozen ground began to crack. There were some parts where the ice was directly shattered, revealing the lake underneath.

After the middle-aged man deflected the young man’s attack, the middle-aged man said frostily, “Fang Yi Ming, you’ve improved tremendously. However, you’re still far from being able to kill me! I’ll report to the sect immediately that you attacked me.”

The young man, Fang Yi Ming, sneered. “Wang Liu An, what evidence do you have to back up your claims?”

A faint light shone down on the duo. It was from the Formation compass that Fang Yi Ming had used to prevent the use of Floating Image Pearls.

Fang Yi Ming continued to say, “Moreover, even if you can prove it by swearing on the Devil’s Heart Blood Oath, no one cares about what happens in the Imperial War Realm.”

Wang Liu An’s expression darkened slightly upon hearing this. “It seems like you’ve thought this through. No wonder you dare to attack me on the Lord Battlefield. Even then, do you think you’re capable of killing me? Perhaps, you’ll be able to do so if you wait another few hundred years. Nonetheless, who knows if I’ll still be in the Tai Yi Sect at that time? In any case, you can keep dreaming about avenging your master’s death!”

Based on the duo’s conversation, Duan Ling Tian could naturally tell they were from the Tai Yi Sect. He frowned slightly when he discovered they were intermediate Lords of Gods. They were likely inner elders of the Tai Yi Sect. It would be difficult for him to defeat them without revealing his trump cards.

At this moment, an idea appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. He turned and picked up a piece of ice before dropping it again.

Thump!

The noise naturally caught the duo’s attention. They turned around immediately to look in the direction of the sound.
