Chapter 3931
"As for the people who were tragically infected— they're all as good as dead. No need to worry about them."
Everyone around nodded at his words.
At this, Chester said with a smile as well, "Your plan sounds great. Well then, let's begin taking action."
Many of the sect superiors there were highly skilled in conjuring various formations. It was clear that setting up a
simple trap formation would hardly be a problem.
Under Chester’s lead, the respective sects quickly began conjuring the trap formation for the entrance of the
canyon.
Just then, on another end.
At the altar of the Heavenly Alliance, Grunt sat on his throne. His face was pitch-black with hatred and demise. 1
Princess Dorothy was to be married to Darryl Darby, whereas Grunt had been tasked with the arduous mission of
picking up after the mess that had happened in the Nine Mainlands. That alone was enough to make Grunt
murderous.
Yet just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, Grunt received news that the tens of thousands of elite
practitioners led by Cayden had encountered an ancient poisonous centipede at the canyon near the Five Poison
Sect. There had been no survivors. Every single man had gotten infected.
At the news, Grunt went purple with rage.
"I have news."
Just then, a skilled practitioner of the Heavenly Alliance walked in with an unreadable
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtexpression. He saluted Grunt. "There's been news from near the Five Poison Sect!"
"Speak." Grunt's expression was the picture of gloom as he uttered the singular word.
The skilled practitioners took a deep breath, speaking slowly. "The Carters have sent out a
community order. There are many sects in the Nine Mainlands, and almost all of them
have rushed to where the Five Poison Sect was near. Apparently, they are trying to set up
a trap contraption in an attempt to trap the Ancient Poisonous Centipede."
Grunt's eyes flashed coldly as the news. He stared the practitioner before him down,
asking, "How many of the Carters were there?"
"There were only Chester Wilson and Ambrose Darby then." the practitioner replied
hurriedly. "Then when the encounter with the Ancient Poisonous Centipede happened
Chester Wilson had called upon everyone. Including Zhu Bajie, Chang Er and the Divine
Farmer."
"Very well!"
Grunt let out a raucous peal of laughter, unable to control the unbridled fury in his heart.
"We weren't able to get the Carters the last time. This time we shall return victorious for
sure!"
Speaking of which, Grunt's priority with the situation at present was to find the Sealed
Devil Mirror as soon as possible. Then he would join forces with the other sects to conquer
the ancient poisonous centipede.
Even then, the thought of having Darryl Darby take away his Princess still filled Grunt with
unbridled rage, to the point of losing control.
In his fury, Grunt rose slowly. He spat out the words one by one, " Gather all our men at
once, and head to the Five Poison Sect as quickly as possible! We'll take the chance to
wipe out the Carter clan."
"Yes!"
The skilled practitioner responded with an affirmative, striding out of the altar hurriedly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Within a few minutes, almost two hundred thousand members of the Heavenly Alliance
had gathered. They set out with gusto in the direction of the Five Poison Sect. 4
On yet another end.
Under Chester's command, the respective sect leaders had formed a gargantuan trap
formation using numerous stone poles. They had succeeded in trapping the ancient
poisonous centipede as well as the tens of thousands of infected people, inside the
canyon.
Speaking of which, that feat alone has been far from easy. The ancient poisonous
centipede was overwhelmingly powerful, making it extremely difficult to hold it down with
formations. Chester and the others had managed to take advantage of the beast's rest to
lay down the formation, and it had gone pretty successfully.
Ha!
As they watched the trap formation come to be, everyone sighed in relief with a smile.
This included Chester, Zhu Bajie and the rest of the sect masters present.
Finally, it was done.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWithout the looming threat of the ancient poisonous centipede, they were rid of one more
obstacle in the way of them capturing Skylar. 1
Just then, a series of footsteps sounded from the forest nearby.
The footsteps sounded heavy and plentiful, like a great number of people were approaching.
Upon getting a clearer look, everyone froze.
What they saw was almost two hundred thousand members of the Heavenly Alliance approaching with unbridled
gusto. A figure drifted closer and closer in mid-air, gliding through the atmosphere. The golden armor he was
clad in implied impossible power.
It was none other than Grunt.
"Finally, the Heavenly Alliance has arrived."
"Thank god, Skylar Blanc's going to be doomed for sure!"
At the appearance of Grunt and the Heavenly Alliance all the sect masters broke out into thunderous applause,
chattering excitedly amongst themselves.
They all thought that Grunt had brought all these men to assist with the capture of Skylar. After all, Skylar had
stolen the Devil Sealed Mirror from the Ghost World— this was a matter of the safety of the Nine Mainlands. On
top of that, Skylar had also lured out the ancient poisonous centipede, which had resulted in Cayden and the tens
of thousands of men from the Heavenly Alliance to become infected.
Chester frowned internally, troubled.
Grunt had brought an overwhelming number of men with him. Something was off.
Whoosh!
To the side, Dax glowered silently at Grunt. His eyes blazed with rage.
This was his arch nemesis. At the thought of the death of his wife Nancy, Dax's blood boiled as his heart twisted
in anguished grief.
