A Demon's Journey

Dylan Ross and Camille were on their way to Lamhilhan Theocracy. King Tryfon's preparations to send the two to the Lamhilhan Theocracy had already begun.

By the moment they reach their destination, the preparations would be finalized. Camille knew about this fact and persuaded Dylan Ross to move quickly.

Dylan Ross felt that Camille's words made sense. The earlier he reached the Lamhilhan Theocracy and settled with all sorts of formalities and issues, the earlier he could begin working.

Moreover, it would take quite some time for him to get used to another Kingdom with a totally different culture. For him to achieve his motive, he would need to understand their thought process, their philosophies, and just what they expected from their leaders.

He would then need to shape his prestige that the people would find what they were looking for within him.

The Angel with him continued to assure him that this wouldn't be a difficult task. She would instruct him along the way, and all he had to do was as she said.

The Angel had been to the Lamhilhan Theocracy and had a general idea of how the situation worked in there. However, it was also a fact that she underestimated the politics of the humans within that Kingdom.

Her information and thought process were both outdated. However, she was knowledgeable and could share that knowledge with Dylan Ross. The two could brainstorm together and think of some amazing ideas.

Dylan Ross did have some doubts regarding his Angel's words, but he decided to go to the Lamhilhan Theocracy in the end.

It would be better to be at the location than to sit here on their ass and gather more information.

It wasn't like anyone would try to kill them right after they entered the Lamhilhan Theocracy. Even though Camille's face was well known within the Lamhilhan Theocracy, her enemies would still require some time to find her precise location.

That much time was all that Dylan Ross required to adapt to the Lamhilhan Theocracy.

As of now, Dylan had taken a favor from two of his good friends. They were actually the Wind Pythons.

These were two pythons who had been saved by Dylan Ross when they were quite young. Initially, they were merely serpents and hadn't even unlocked their element.

However, they coincidentally met Dylan, who saved them from the sharp fangs of a terrifying Panda. Dylan Ross provided them with some pellets for beasts that could purify their bloodline.

Soon enough, they evolved into pythons. These two pythons had a very close relationship with Dylan. They would never deny his request.

For that reason, the two pythons were now taking them to the Glerian Kingdom and Lamhilhan Theocracy's borders.

They weren't flying very high in the air. But it was enough to pass many of the towns and cities from above without troubling anyone. Most sensors in towns or cities would ignore these individuals when they noticed that they had maintained sufficient distance while flying over their territory.

A few days passed. During this time, the situation in the Night Mountain Sect was extremely somber. They were all preparing talismans, and the Night Mountain Sect was finally pulling out its rare artifacts or weapons and giving them to their best disciples or elders. The ones who received these artifacts or weapons didn't get them just because of their identity.

They got them according to their ability. Only a genius who was capable enough to control that weapon and utilize it to its total efficiency received it. Not a random disciple who had gained a bit of prestige due to some controversy.

The Night Mountain Sect was utterly serious about this final battle against the Black Lake Sect. They had tried their best to deal with the Black Lake Sect using their schemes. And they had failed badly.

Many elders now felt that they should have ordered those beasts to attack the other points of the Black Lake Sect. They suffered greatly because they had no idea about Azaroth's true strength.

Now, the beasts were dead, and they could no longer have anyone else to go and battle against the Black Lake Sect.

The Night Mountain Sect had been considering forming an alliance with the Origin Sect, but unfortunately for them, the Origin Sect had been attacked by the Demons. Their situation was even graver than the Night Mountain Sect. Thus, the Night Mountain Sect wouldn't receive any assistance from them.

The Red Crown Sect had already sent its messenger, who clearly stated that they wouldn't get between their conflict. They didn't care whose fault it was. They would stay out of this situation.

Unless they could convince the King and have him order the Red Crown Sect to be involved, the Red Crown Sect would remain out of this battle.

Requesting or trying to convince the King to order the Red Crown Sect to be involved in this battle would be suicide. The King had a much better relationship with the Black Lake Sect's Leader than the Night Mountain Sect.

Some citizens speculated that the King was a little interested in the Sect Mistress of the Black Lake Sect. But since she was married and already had a child, he was restraining himself. These were mere rumors that were spread in a few towns and so on.

Anyway, the Night Mountain Sect's entire leadership or the board wasn't stupid enough to believe that the King would take their side. Thus, the Night Mountain Sect had decided that it was time for the final resort.

To reveal their Blood Warriors without any restrains. They planned to make the Black Lake Sect pay for all the Night Mountain Sect's damages.

The Night Mountain Sect knew that the Black Lake Sect must have found their spies because the information from all their informers had stopped too suddenly.

This meant something big had occurred.

The Night Mountain Sect had even tried to present a peace offer in these few days while giving away many resources and weapons. They were even ready to give away their core technique.

However, the Black Lake Sect refused to accept anything. It seemed as though the Black Lake Sect's Master had made up her mind to bury each one of them underneath the ground.

The Night Mountain Sect was ready for the battle against the Black Lake Sect. But for some reason, the Black Lake Sect wouldn't launch the final attack against the Night Mountain Sect's main territory.

The leaders and even the disciples were confused. They didn't understand why the Black Lake Sect was not attacking them anymore. Was the Black Lake Sect planning to catch them off-guard?

The longer the Black Lake Sect took, the more time the Night Mountain Sect would have to prepare their defensive formations. However, the Night Mountain Sect's cultivators were relaxing and letting go of their strain at this moment. In other words, they were lazing around.

Only the top command of the Night Mountain Sect remained alert, while the disciples and other elders had already begun to relax without worrying about the sect or the battle too greatly.

In reality, it wasn't that the Black Lake Sect didn't want to launch the final attack at the Night Mountain Sect, but it wasn't Erica who hadn't yet given her affirmation to launch the attack.

And Erica hadn't given her affirmation because Azaroth had asked her to keep the attack on hold. Only give the order after his signal. Azaroth was also waiting for someone.

And today, Zena spiritually sent a message to Azaroth, "I found them, Master. They are very near to the battlefield. At their current speed, it would take them half a day to one day to reach the battlefield."

"It's about time," Azaroth spoke with a smile.. He then added, "Good job, Zena."
