Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 629: Chapter 390: The Flying Goose_1

Facing the Sect Leader’s question, Peregrine Azure was momentarily stunned. How should he explain this? It was Logan’s own right whether or not to take action.

It was not possible for Saint Sky Sect to forcibly coerce Logan if he didn’t want to be dragged into the conflict. Applying grand principles to Logan obviously wouldn’t work.

Aurelius Azure waved his hand and continued, “I believe if Logan has a shred of humanity, he will definitely take action. Otherwise, how is he any different from those on the Demon Path in the Central Region?”

“Sect Leader, you are thinking too simply,” Peregrine Azure sighed with helplessness, “Logan is not from the Central Region. Why should he help us? Not everyone is like the noble and righteous sects of the Central Region’s Five Great Sects, constantly dedicated to driving out the Demon Path and protecting the lives of countless humans!”

Ultimately, the matters of the Central Region must be solved by themselves. If they themselves lacked the courage yet constantly sought help from others, who would be willing to be the sucker? Perhaps only if they saw the fervent hearts of Saint Sky Sect and other sects fighting against the Demon Path would Logan be willing to lend a hand!

“If there is no Sanctuary Powerhouse, the situation will become very complicated!” Aurelius Azure said with deep concern. Despite the alliance of the Five Great Sects, many smaller sects have been swayed, and in the last few days, tens of thousands have gathered, waiting for Demonic Sky Gate’s victory to make their move swiftly.

Although Demonic Sky Gate no longer existed, they had no way out and were perhaps even more desperate and frenzied than before, unwilling to allow time to slip by!

Peregrine Azure thought for a moment, then reassured the Sect Leader not to worry too much, “Don’t forget, several lords from the Western Wasteland can help. At the very least, we have a dozen or so Quasi-Saints as reinforcements. Although we lack the power of a Sanctuary Powerhouse, those sects in the Central Region swayed by guile equally lack a Sanctuary Powerhouse!”

“You might have gotten their promises before you came back, but that might just be a courtesy. Don’t take it too seriously. After all, we only sent you alone to the battle between the Western Wasteland and Demonic Sky Gate. Would they really put in effort for us?”

Aurelius Azure felt disconsolate in his heart. The reason why only Peregrine Azure was sent was that they felt Demonic Sky Gate was unbeatable and the Western Wilderness Forces would definitely lose. Sending a large number of experts would only result in meaningless casualties. Who would have thought Logan would emerge out of nowhere and decisively defeat Demonic Sky Gate?

In his view, even if the lords from the Western Wasteland were willing to act, they would do the same as Saint Sky Sect did before, symbolically send one person, and then the favor would be considered repaid.

“It’s different. The lords from the Western Wasteland are not calculative. Even if we really only sent one person, they would surely remember the favor in their hearts. Moreover, when it comes to fighting the Demon Path, they can’t shirk their duty. Once trouble arises in the Central Region, the Western Wasteland certainly can’t escape.”

Peregrine Azure could be certain that as long as he asked, regardless of whether other sects came or not, the three great lords would definitely send experts to aid. Although he had only known these lords for a few days, the brief interaction was enough for him to understand their temperaments and characters.

“Let’s not consider so much for now!” Aurelius Azure pondered for a long time, then said, “The current situation is urgent. I want to send you to visit the smaller sects, to persuade some of them not to side with the Demon Path, thus weakening their power. After all, the situation is precarious.”

There were already more than a hundred sects in the Central Region at odds with the Five Great Sects, but a large portion had been deceived. If they could persuade these people to leave, the remaining ones would not be of concern. Otherwise, if these more than a hundred sects took action, the Five Great Sects would not stand a chance.

“I… might not be the right person for the job!” Peregrine Azure was stunned by the suggestion. Wasn’t this sending him to his death? Although he was a Quasi-Saint himself, he would be facing dozens of Quasi-Saints. If things did not go well, wouldn’t he be attacked by over a hundred sects?

He had just returned and the Sect Leader was assigning him such a difficult task. He was willing to sacrifice his life for Saint Sky Sect, but not in such a senseless way. Those sects influenced by the Demon Path needed blood to raise their flags!

Aurelius Azure shook his head, filled with sorrow, “You are the only suitable person. Tell me, who else in the entire Central Region could deter those sects? You have just pacified the conflict in the Western Wasteland and obliterated Demonic Sky Gate. Who in the Central Region does not know of this?”

“It was not my achievement. It was Logan!” Peregrine Azure immediately protested. Without Logan’s Array Method, even ten of him probably couldn’t deal with Demonic Sky Gate. And how had this news spread back to the Central Region, inflating his reputation instead?

“It’s all the same. The important thing is the deterrent effect. You are not meant to take actual action. For those sects, do they really know who is the Strongest One between Logan and you? Besides, many think Logan is a man of Saint Sky Sect, and you are the Vice Sect Leader of Saint Sky Sect.”

Aurelius Azure’s gaze was profound, hoping that Peregrine Azure would make the journey. Although the mission was fraught with mortal danger, it was the best move to turn the tide.

Ever since many Sanctuary Powerhouses went to the Ancient Secret Realm, all the sects in the Central Region had become restless, each wishing to advance further at this opportunity. Some, due to their timidity, did not dare to act rashly, while others moved troops under the temptation of the Demon Cult Sects.

Even though the Central Region was governed by the order of the Five Great Sects, now it seemed to be of no use. It had become a thorn in the side of those more than a hundred sects. They were eager to eradicate Saint Sky Sect and the other four Great Sects to dominate the Central Region afterward.

The five top-tier Great Sects were stronger than the smaller ones, but only in the number of Strong Ones they possessed, not because they were on a higher Realm. Now the strongest in the entire Central Region were no more than Quasi-Saints. With not a single person of the Holy See, there were already more than a hundred Quasi-Saints.
