Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 630: Chapter 390: The Flying Goose_2

Although there are differences in strength among Quasi-Saints, the gap isn’t very large, a Quasi-Saint Perfection and an ordinary Quasi-Saint differ by only a few steps. With the cooperation of two or three ordinary Quasi-Saints, they can easily deal with a Quasi-Saint Perfection unless one takes the step into a true Saint Seat.

“Whether you go or not, either is fine,” Aurelius Azure stepped in front of Peregrine Azure and said solemnly, “If you don’t go, as Sect Leader, I can only make the trip myself. If something happens to me, remember you must protect Saint Sky Sect at all costs. Do not let it fall into decline.”

“But you are the Sect Leader…” Peregrine Azure began but then deeply understood, in the current situation of Central Region, who could stay out of trouble? To put an end to this strife, it seemed necessary for someone to take the plunge.

Over a hundred Sects were causing trouble, a scale unprecedented, with dozens of Quasi-Saint Seats, a hundred Half-step Saint Seats, and countless Strong Dominators.

Returning from the Western Wasteland, thinking peace could be enjoyed, Peregrine Azure gave a bitter smile and shook his head. Perhaps just as he had prepared himself days ago for a sacrifice for Saint Sky Sect when heading to the Western Wasteland, ready to fight to the death against Demonic Sky Gate with the combined force of Western Wilderness Forces, right?

“Fine, if you as the Sect Leader cannot go, then let me do it!” Peregrine Azure made up his mind, after all, Saint Sky Sect could not do without Aurelius Azure presiding, and the other four great righteous Sects only recognized Aurelius Azure. If he stayed behind, what if there were conflicts among the Five Great Sects?

“Okay,” Aurelius Azure patted Peregrine Azure’s shoulder heavily, “As long as you can persuade half of the Sects to abandon the darkness and seek the light, leave the rest to me. Your journey is a matter of life and death for the entire Central Region, and I hope not only for your success but also that you return alive.”

“I will leave tomorrow morning. Have someone prepare a file for me immediately, detailing the disputes and interests among those hundred-plus Sects, including those mingled with the Demon Cult Sects.”

Upon hearing Peregrine Azure’s words, Aurelius Azure directly took out a letter. This was information gathered by Saint Sky Sect’s spies, also concerning the recent movements of those Sects.

After Peregrine Azure left, Aurelius Azure couldn’t help but be filled with emotion. He, as the Sect Leader, was at fault for constantly sending Peregrine Azure, the Vice Sect Leader, on journeys fraught with danger.

The next day, early in the morning, Peregrine Azure set off. Just before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and asked the Sect Leader to send ten million Spirit Stones to Logan, recalling that he had also contributed ten million Spirit Stones for the arrangement of the array against Demonic Sky Gate, and had even written an IOU at the time.

“Alright, I’ll go in a moment,” Aurelius Azure nodded, watching Peregrine Azure’s departing figure, hoping that everything would go smoothly, and that the situation in Central Region could return to peace as much as possible.

Many of those hundred-plus Sects were being misled—they actually didn’t dare to oppose the Five Great Sects. As long as Peregrine Azure sternly persuaded them, it should be possible to prevent a large number from behaving recklessly. The only fear was that the Demon Sects would take the opportunity to ambush Peregrine Azure.

After reviewing the map, Peregrine Azure decided to first persuade some of the Great Sects. Firstly, they were more reasonable and could see the whole situation in Central Region clearly. Now that the Western Wasteland had been pacified, after weighing the pros and cons, they must be feeling anxious.

Secondly, if the Great Sects took a step back, those medium and small Sects would follow the trend. Besides, for Saint Sky Sect, those medium and small Sects posed no threat. The leaders of those small Sects were merely at the Half-step Saint Seat level, only within the Quasi-Saint Realm, and that was considered strong in Central Region.

The first one he thought of was Fly Geese Door, a Sect that had always had a good relationship with Saint Sky Sect and received many benefits. Furthermore, their Sect Leader was not a person of heinous crimes. Peregrine Azure was quite confident in persuading him. His association with those Sects must have been due to pressure from the situation, not for personal gain.

The most crucial point was that Fly Geese Door was located a hundred miles from Saint Sky Sect, standing between two leading first-rate Sects. It definitely counted as the most critical stronghold. If they were to join forces with the Demon Path, the two leading first-rate Sects would be split apart, allowing those Sects to be defeated one by one.

For such a fortress checkpoint, it must not fall to the enemy. Otherwise, the Saint Sky Sect would be in a passive position, and it would be difficult for the Five Great Sects to form a united front. On the contrary, if it were captured, the Five Great Sects could support each other and completely form an unbeatable situation.

As soon as Peregrine Azure arrived at the Fly Geese Gate, he saw more than a hundred disciples patrolling back and forth at the entrance. Originally, he wanted to slip in and talk directly with their Sect Leader, but now it was clear that wasn’t possible. With no other choice, he stepped forward and made his intentions known.

The leading disciple sneered, “Don’t you know our Sect has already formed an alliance with the Blood Drinking Sect? Don’t get any funny ideas, Saint Sky Sect. You’ve been lording over the Central Region for so many years, and now without a Holy See to back you up, what makes you think it’s not our turn to reign as kings?”

“I need to speak with your Sect Leader in person. There are some matters you disciples can’t decide,” Peregrine Azure held back his rage, not bothering to argue with these people. If the circumstances weren’t so dire, he really would’ve taught them a lesson. But he understood that once a fight broke out, the rift with the Fly Geese Gate would become irreconcilable.

“No way, who knows what you’re planning? What if you mean harm to our Sect Leader?” These people flatly refused. If they hadn’t known Peregrine Azure was the Vice Sect Leader of the Saint Sky Sect, and that his cultivation had reached the Quasi-Saint Realm, they wouldn’t have bothered speaking with him at all.

“What if I force my way in?” Initially, Peregrine Azure had hoped for a peaceful and calm discussion, but that seemed impossible now. Even at the risk of offending them, he had to meet with Lysander Fischer; the survival of the entire Central Region hung in the balance, and if there was even the slightest hope, he needed to try.

The hundred-plus disciples immediately drew their divine weapons. If Peregrine Azure dared to forcibly enter their Sect, it would signify a formal declaration of war against the Fly Geese Gate. At that point, the Saint Sky Sect could not afford all the consequences, especially with over a hundred Central Region Sects united behind the Fly Geese Gate.

Fury surged within Peregrine Azure. Before this, the Fly Geese Gate wouldn’t have dared such insolence. Were they now unable to weigh the situation properly, simply provoked by a few words from a Demon Cult Sect? Just as the tension reached a breaking point, an elderly man walked out from the gate, defusing the situation.

“Why are you all brandishing your weapons? Peregrine Azure is a guest of the Fly Geese Door, not an enemy. Do you remember ten years ago when our Sect was attacked by an enemy? Peregrine Azure came from the Saint Sky Sect to support us. Have you forgotten that favor? Don’t bring shame upon the Fly Geese,” he said.

The hundred-plus disciples hurriedly sheathed their weapons and respectfully bowed to the elder, “Sect Leader, haven’t we already united with over a hundred Central Region Sects? The enemy is the Five Great Sects of the Central Region. We cannot have any connections with the Vice Sect Leader of the Saint Sky Sect at this time, can we?”

“This is a conflict between Sects, not personal relationships,” Lysander Fischer glanced at them, then warmly welcomed Peregrine Azure inside.

No sooner had the two of them sat down in the hall did Peregrine Azure begin to speak urgently, “Sect Leader of the Fly Geese, I’ve come here on urgent business concerning the Saint Sky Sect. Currently, in the Central Region…”

“There’s no need to say more. If you’re thinking of persuading the Fly Geese Gate to back down, I’m afraid it won’t work,” Lysander Fischer waved his hand, understanding the other’s intentions. Given the current situation, siding with the Saint Sky Sect would be tantamount to opposing the entire collection of Central Region Sects.

“You should be aware, the reason a hundred Sects are in turmoil is largely due to the Blood Drinking Sect’s instigation. But such conflict will only lead to mutual destruction, allowing Demon Cult Sects like the Blood Drinking Sect to benefit. Our Central Region Forces cannot allow this; it’s a plot of the Demon Path,” said Peregrine Azure, unwilling to give up.

“Moreover, think about it. If the Central Region falls to the Demon Sects, do you really think the Fly Geese Gate could remain unaffected? Demons don’t honor relationships; they’ll devour you bit by bit until nothing remains but devastation,” he continued, sounding desperate.

“I’m all too aware of that. But right now, I can’t make decisions alone. My disciples won’t agree, and all we can do is follow the current. Besides, you Five Great Sects have dominated the Central Region for so many years; isn’t it time to rest and allow other Sects access to ample resources?” he replied.
