Chapter 866: 866

Chapter 866: Sure!

That was simply how Wang Baole worked . He noted down everyone who had ever crossed him and found ways of getting even when the opportunity presented itself .

He wasn’t always fixated on getting payback, of course . The Black Rift Legion had tried to kill him, but Wang Baole had no intention of sabotaging the former or leaving them to their own devices on the battlefield .

His thoughts were focused on the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch . In his opinion, he had attained a certain level of cultivation after his breakthrough . He could be considered a person of significance . Fixating on his former quarrels with the Black Rift Legion wouldn’t be appropriate for someone of his newly risen status .

It might’ve been alright if no one were around, but there are so many people looking now . Forget it . Daddy’s a forgiving man, after all . Wang Baole coughed and ignored the myriad of emotions reflected in the eyes of the Black Rift Legion commander . He was of the belief that one should get payback from the person who had wronged him in the first place . If one was bitten by a dog, they looked for the dog’s master for answers .

That was why he had made up his mind during his journey there . The person responsible for his dispute with the Violet Gold New Dao Sect was the latter’s patriarch .

It seems like I’ve become a lot wiser . As the future president of the Federation and a person of importance, this is how I should think and behave . Wang Baole was pleased with his reasoning . He looked up and looked around, then stared at the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch and the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder . He deliberated how he should go about making a killing off the former . The unconcealed ill intent in his eyes must have been too obvious, as the patriarch seemed slightly unsettled when he caught the look in Wang Baole’s eyes .

The right-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect seemed equally uneasy, if not more so . He had argued that their current predicament was a result of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s tactical move instead of outright failure in their invasion of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect . However, he was aware that the truth was far from that . The reinforcements displayed signs of having engaged in a fierce and recent battle .

Even though their arrival wasn’t a clear sign of the sect lord’s defeat, the fact that the enemy had been able to split its forces and send part of its army there was clear evidence that the war wasn’t proceeding as they had originally planned . There was a high chance that something unexpected or a stalemate had occurred .

The possibility of either of those situations happening alarmed him . Thoughts of retreat began to surface in his mind, and he was no longer interested in prolonging the fight . He unleashed his cultivation once more, sending his Planet realm suppressive force surging across the battlefield as he decided to widen the distance between himself and his opponent . If everything went according to plan, the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch would allow his retreat once he sensed what was going on .

After all, he wasn’t aware of what was really going on . They had been fighting for so long, and he didn’t want to prolong the battle either . Both himself and his sect needed time to recuperate . As a result, when the patriarch realized that his enemy was showing signs of retreating, he only struggled inwardly for a moment before retreating imperceptibly and giving his enemy a window of opportunity to escape during his next attack .

The Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder instantly sensed his chance . He retreated immediately, pulling the distance between himself and the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch apart .

Wang Baole saw through what was going on as the right-hand elder chose to retreat . His eyes flashed brightly as an idea popped into his head . He realized how he could make a killing off the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch .

I’ve not made a move yet, and here you are thinking of leaving? Wang Baole’s eyes brightened as the idea he just had flashed across his mind . He charged out and sped across the battlefield like a shooting star, rushing towards the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch and the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder, yelling out loud as he charged towards them .

“Esteemed Patriarch of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect, I’ve been ordered to come to your aid . I swear to fight to the death!” Wang Baole roared and sped up . He hadn’t unleashed his full cultivation . Nevertheless, he was still moving at considerable speed as he headed towards the right-hand elder with the intention of thwarting his escape!

Upon hearing Wang Baole’s words, the right-hand elder’s eyes flashed with an icy glint . He wasn’t particularly concerned about Wang Baole’s arrival, though . In his eyes, those who hadn’t reached the Planet realm were mere ants . With a raise of his right hand, he launched an attack through the cosmos at Wang Baole . He didn’t slow down in his retreat and, instead, quickened his pace . At the same time, he sent his Divine Will out and commanded all disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect to retreat as well .

Similarly, the patriarch of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect paid Wang Baole no heed . Privately, he thought that Wang Baole should’ve minded his own business . Regardless, he was there to provide aid on behalf of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect . No matter how much he might begrudge the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s patriarch for not coming to their aid personally, he couldn’t refuse or respond negatively to Wang Baole’s aid in the presence of his disciples . He had to show his composure instead . He raised his right hand and flipped his sleeve, looking for all the world as if he were trying to stop the right-hand elder from leaving when, in reality, he had reserved part of his strength . His true intention was to give the right-hand elder a chance to leave .

As a result, his disciples saw their patriarch unleashing an attack and Wang Baole risking his life to stop the right-hand elder from leaving . They watched as the right-hand elder sent an attack across the cosmos that landed on Wang Baole and sent him shuddering violently and spewing blood from his mouth as he was flung backward . It was a sight that roused many of the disciples .

“He’s risking his life to help us!”

“I misunderstood Long Nanzi… I didn’t realize that he was risking his life to help us!” The disciples of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect were overcome with emotion .

Wang Baole, on the other hand… was feeling secretly pleased with himself while spewing blood out of his mouth . The Planet realm blow that he had received wasn’t a big deal at all . He could take it . As for all the blood, he had done that on purpose for dramatic effect . He plastered a crazed look on his face, letting loose a roar louder than the last as he retreated .

“Esteemed Patriarch of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect, I have a few Dharmic Battleships, all products of the resources that I’ve accumulated over the years . I’m blowing them up as part of the rescue efforts . But Dharmic Battleships are precious commodities after all . I request that the patriarch compensates me for my losses after this battle!” Wang Baole didn’t wait for the patriarch’s reply . Instead, he roared and stuck his right hand into the air . He pulled out another two Dharmic Battleships that he had retrieved from the imperial cemetery and flung them at the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder .

“Explode!”

The two Dharmic Battleships exploded instantly, sending waves of spirit energy surging outwards . The sight of the explosion sent waves of shock rippling in the minds of the surrounding disciples .

“Oh my god, he blew up his Dharmic Battleship!”

“Long Nanzi… he’s not only risking his life to save us, he’s risking everything he’s got!”

In their eyes, Wang Baole was currently risking everything he had in order to save them . But… while two Dharmic Battleships might seem invaluable to a Spirit Immortal realm cultivator, they weren’t a big deal to a Planet realm cultivator . That was why neither the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder nor the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch paid them much heed . The former disregarded them completely and suppressed the explosive force of the attack with a wave of his hand . He could tell that the self-destructive power of those Dharmic Battleships was quite weak . He didn’t stop in his retreat . As for the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch, he saw how moved his disciples were at Wang Baole’s actions . There was no way he could refuse Wang Baole’s request for compensation . He had also sensed the relatively weak self-destructive power of the Dharmic Battleships . Nevertheless, he instinctively answered with a succinct reply .

“Sure!”

A look of gratitude flashed across Wang Baole’s eyes when the patriarch uttered his agreement . As the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder continued to disregard the self-destructive Dharmic Battleships and retreat, Wang Baole roared and waved his hand . This time, he pulled out forty Dharmic Battleships and flung them at the right-hand elder .

The right-hand elder was struck dumb at the sight of the forty Dharmic Battleships . His mind buzzed with shock . He could disregard two self-destructing Dharmic Battleships, but forty such battleships… Every one of those battleships was emanating substantial power . Waves of shock surged through him . He might have been at the Planet realm… but in the face of forty self-destructing Dharmic Battleships, in his current state of exhaustion and when he was already harboring thoughts of retreat, his will couldn’t help but waver .

The person who was in greater shock was the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch . His eyes had widened instantly, and shock and confusion raced through his mind . He recalled his promise of compensation and shuddered fearfully .

As shock surged through the minds of the right-hand elder, the patriarch, and the cultivators around them, Wang Baole roared .

“Explode!”

Instantly… the forty Dharmic Battleships that he had recovered from the imperial cemetery exploded . Waves of energy surged outwards and flooded the cosmos, transforming into hurricanes that ravaged the area!

Even though the destruction of each Dharmic Battleship could only unleash one-tenth of a Dharmic Battleship’s true power, the combined destructive force unleashed by the self-destruction of forty Dharmic Battleships couldn’t be underestimated . The hurricanes that resulted from the explosions sent a look of alarm flashing across the right-hand elder’s face . He unleashed his full cultivation and steeled himself for new injuries as he forcibly suppressed the destructive force of the hurricanes .

The cosmos rumbled as he clamped down on the hurricanes . The right-hand elder sensed once again that these Dharmic Battleships weren’t as powerful as he had originally thought them to be . Having realized that, he let loose a sigh of relief . Murder flashed in his eyes as he turned towards Wang Baole . In his eyes, Wang Baole was a mere Spirit Immortal realm cultivator, yet he had somehow gotten his hands on those subpar Dharmic Battleships and managed to give him a fright . He deserved to be killed for that!

Then… just as he turned his murderous gaze onto Wang Baole and rushed towards him to attack, Wang Baole turned his own vicious glare onto the right-hand elder and lifted his right hand…

Amidst the thunderous rumbling in the cosmos, two hundred Dharmic Battleships suddenly appeared around him!

“Curse you…” The Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder widened his eyes and retreated instantly .
