310 Inner Disciple Tournament 15-Incoming Trouble?
After giving her the swords, Alex told her to take care of Charya and the others. Well, she was planning to do that without him asking.
Alex nodded and came back to his sword. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to them, Alex was going to have a big problem very soon.
In the Zhou Kingdom's secret palace. There were a few ten people that were convening a meeting. But there were two people that seemed to be the leader.
The first one was an old man with long green hair and an aged face. His eyes were full of strictness. He wore a green lace long white robe with some grassy pattern. He was the old man that Alex met after he finished his lightning tribulation.
In front of him was a middle-aged man. He had short white hair without any expression on his face. He was a 4-Star Martial King that was sent to this place from Nilis Continent.
He led fifty 8-Star Martial Lords or above along with another 4-Star Martial King like him to this place to acquire Alex.
"We need the person who triggered the golden lightning tribulation. " The white-haired guy asked.
The green-haired old man frowned. He knew the importance of Alex, but it seemed the kingdom that gave them the method of blood pills wanted him alive. He was the one who saw Alex, so he took charge of this as a 1-Star Martial King from the Zhou Kingdom.
"Of course, I have seen his appearance with my own eyes. And this is his portrait. " He gave Alex's portrait to him. He then explained, "He is Alexander Sirius from Heavenly Sword Sect. If we go now, we should be able to arrive in three days. "𝙛𝐫ℯ𝚎wℯ𝗯ｎoѵ𝙚𝗹 - 🅽🅽novel
"No need. We can arrive in one day. We have been rushing to this continent with a special flying boat. We can reach Heavenly Sword Sect in a day. You will also gather a few ten people and follow us to Heavenly Sword Sect.
"We need to hurry up and catch this guy. If Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to protect him, we would annihilate the entire Heavenly Sword Sect. " The white-haired guy said.
"But, if we did that, my Zhou Kingdom would bear the responsibility. Other sects and kingdoms would try to suppress us. "
"You don't need to worry. We already expected something like that. After we massacred the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, I and the others will stay in this continent.
"We will wait for another year when our plan will start. Although we have not been ordered to fight all the power in this continent, defending our vassal kingdom should pose no problem. " He said 'Vassal Kingdom' because the Zhou Kingdom had sold their soul to the devil and became a vassal kingdom.
Of course, after knowing their power, the Zhou Kingdom had no reason to refuse. They started sucking upon them to get more power. After all, if they managed to conquer the entire continent. All those sects and kingdoms would be in their kingdom while they only needed to report to a single kingdom.
"We will attack when they are not expecting us. If we attack them now, not only we can capture him, but we also can annihilate one of the sects in our way. Zhou Kingdom shall keep their mouth shut for the time being.
"If the other influences knew it was the Zhou Kingdom who did it. You can just inform them that one of the disciples from Heavenly Sword Sect offended you. Then, we annihilated them because the Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to protect that guy.
"With those results, they would be wary about you guys. And if they tried to band together, we will start striking the weaker influences first. That should give us some time.
"Initially, we wanted to start our plan in the Wilow Continent Grand Tournament so we could swipe them all at the same time. But because of this person who triggered a golden lightning tribulation that no one managed to do it and there was even no record about such a thing.
"Because of that, we were forced to do this and made some adjustments in our plan. I am sure you know this, but failure is not an option. If we can't get that person, we will kill him. "
"Yes. Of course, we know how important this kid is. After all, if this kid managed to go to the Northern Continent. With his talent alone, he might become a powerhouse there. If he decided to go back to this place for revenge, there would only be an annihilation. " The green-haired old man said.
He continued, "But, there is some information that you should need to know. This kid possesses the rare Space Element. So, our kingdom decided to use one of our treasures that could lock a space element user for a few minutes.
"It is a rank 4 Array Plate. Fortunately, this kid is only a Martial Grandmaster, so even if he could do his space thing. He could not overcome this Array Plate. "
"Alright. We are going to Heavenly Sword Sect now. If we succeeded in this, you would be rewarded greatly. " The white-haired guy said. He then stood up and shouted, "Let's go. "
Two 4-Star Martial Kings and fifty Martial Lords started walking. And from the Zhou Kingdom's side, there was one 1-Star Martial King and twenty high-level Martial Lords. This would be enough to destroy the entire sect overnight.
After all, although the number of Martial Lords inside the top four sects like Heavenly Sword Sect was numerous. There were not even a hundred. Most sects only had around eighty Martial Lords, with the majority of them being 5-Star Martial Lords or below.
In fact, there were only around 10-20 people in the sects who were 7-Star Martial Lords or above, and they were usually the elder.
So, if this group of people came to Heavenly Sword Sect, they had more than enough power to annihilate them. Of course, it might be hard if two sects or three sects banded together. But even with that kind of situation, they would certainly hold the Grand Tournament.
As long as they could hold long enough, they would ambush them in the Grand Tournament and kill all of them. After that, they would be the winner who got the last laugh.
Their Kingdom, Brynhildr Kingdom, had been preparing this plan for a long time. They wanted to dominate this continent to strengthen them. And then, they would come back to Nilis Continent and rule the entire continent with their power.
Alex was another card they wanted to acquire. After all, according to them, Alex was a Space Element master. Along with the golden lightning, if they cultivated Alex for a long time, Alex's strength would be far stronger.
They wanted to get Alex so they would have another card if they didn't manage to dominate the continent or some genius fled to the Northern Kingdom. After all, even if those people who fled came back, they would not be able to defeat Alex.
That was the reason they adjusted their well-thought plan. After giving all the orders, they flew outside the city before summoning the ship. After boarding the floating ship, they immediately flew toward Heavenly Sword Sect.
Of course, it didn't escape Nelson's eyes. Nelson disappeared to go to a safe location before calling Alex.
...
Alex just arrived at his home.
"Alex, Nelson wants to talk with you. " Anna immediately came to him while giving him Nelson's card.
Alex furrowed his eyebrows. He grabbed the card and said, "Do you need something from me, Nelson?"
"A big trouble is coming to you, Young Master. "
"What do you mean?"
"There are around 70-80 people coming toward Heavenly Sword Sect. But I don't know what these people want from Heavenly Sword Sect. But after seeing the Martial King that you met back in your Tribulation, there is a high chance that their target is you. " He said.
"What? When will they come?" Alex asked. He recalled the distance between the Zhou Kingdom and Heavenly Sword Sect. It was a pretty far that needed a few days of flying.
After all, he wanted to finish this tournament. Not because of the reward from the sect or recognition, but he wanted the reward from the system. Alex wanted the special summon ticket to summon Anna's Sister, Anya, to cure Putri's curse.
So, he thought he would have enough time to finish the tournament and escape. But Nelson's answer broke his plan.
"I don't know. But they use some special floating ships that travel faster. A normal Martial Lord could reach Heavenly Sword Sect in three days. But with that ship, they might arrive in two if not one. "
Alex sweatdropped. He asked again, "What is their power?"
"I don't know, but they should have three Martial Kings. But the Zhou Kingdom should not have that many Martial Kings, so I assume they must come from another continent. And judging from their aura, they should be 3-Star or above. The rest of them are Martial Lords, possibly High-level Martial Lords, 7-Star or above.
Even Anna was surprised by the number, Alex was covered with sweat. If he missed this tournament, Putri might die before he could summon Anya. Even though he couldn't accept the reality, Putri was his Senior Sister as well as his... Disciple.
"Alex, what should we do? Should we escape?"
Alex contemplated for a few minutes. He was thinking hard about a feasible plan. After finally, he decided. "You go tell Pu...tri to get ready. As soon as they finished their breakthrough, ask them to go to the arena. Then after I finished winning the tournament, we will immediately escape with my Space Element. "
"You are not going to hide the Space Element? After all, you are an Alchemist. In other words, you would have a fire. And if you used your Space Element. There is no other explanation other than two elements. You might be targeted by many if they knew about it. "
"This is a matter of life and death. There is no way I am going to hide it anymore. My biggest regret was not using my fire when the assassins attacked me, Alicia and Firia. I definitely don't want to repeat such a mistake. " Alex replied hurriedly.
He continued, "Even Teacher said, if I want to become the strongest, I would need to challenge the whole world. Although it is not my original plan, we don't have a choice. "
"Alright. " Anna nodded her head.
At first, Alex thought about confronting them after leveling Anna and Leoz a few more with EXP cards. But it was not feasible. Nelson said the Martial Kings would be 3-Star or above. With his current strength, he could only increase their strength to 8-Star Martial Lords.
Alex doubted even with their True Spirit Form, Anna, and the others would not be able to beat those Martial Kings. So there was only one way out which was to escape as soon as he finished.
He would go all out for the last two battles so he could finish the battle as soon as possible. After that, he would bring Putri and the others away from Heavenly Sword Sect.
Alex was thinking about making arrays to protect themselves in the sect. Unfortunately, there was no array in his possession that could fight with Martial Kings.
Because of his state, he decided not to prepare for the fight. Instead, he took out his 100x100 meter Array Paper and split them into four. He then made four Rank 4 Teleportation Array Plates.
Each of these Teleportation Array Plates could teleport them a few miles away from their current position. Alex wished he could make a rank 5 Teleportation Array Plate that could teleport them up to a hundred miles. Unfortunately, he could not make it yet.
After finishing the array plate, Anna went to Song Yu's house. But before that, he said, "You should also ask Evelyn to call her sister with her. As for Simon and Himura Minami... not many people know my relationship with them, so they should be fine. "
Anna nodded and left the house while Alex flew toward the arena.
