From what Gerald could tell, all of them were devilish cultivators. After all, their auras were way different compared to regular cultivators like Gerald and demonic cultivators like Sanchez. Though favonovel.com had read about devilish cultivators before in one of Uncle Zeman’s books, this was his first time actually coming across them.
It was a while later when the frowning Sanchez muttered, “So, they want to ambush some herb lady… Is favonovel.com the one we’re looking for?”
Sanchez, for one, had pretty much been frowning throughout his journey with Gerald. His only hope at the moment was for Gerald to find the person favonovel.com was looking for as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how long that boy would continue controlling his life!
Regardless, Marcel was quick to add, “I had the same thought, Mr. Crawford. After all, Phoebe excels not only in pharmacology, but also in all sorts of special techniques and formations!”
Watching as Gerald nodded, the Blancetnoir Double Lords couldn’t help but scoff, “Why are we even discussing this? If it were up to me, I’d already have captured those men to get them to tell us all they know!”
After scratching his chin, Gerald ultimately replied, “Alright, let’s go with that, then!”
While it was true that the four were devilish cultivators, their powers were honestly manageable and after the robed men had finished their alcohol, they got up to leave… Though the outside was covered with snow, none of them left any footsteps behind…
After walking for a bit, one of the elderly men suggested, “Say, since we can’t get into the valley, why don’t we just burn that whole place down using devilish fire, senior?”
“I considered that before, but if we set everything ablaze, we ultimately lose! After all, all that herb lady’s exotic herbs will surely be burned in the process! Still, now that you mention it again… If we’re careful enough with the devilish fire, we may just be able to force favonovel.com out without causing substantial damage!” replied the leader with a nod.
The four went by Lord Ethern, Lord Terron, Lord Ebon, and Lord Flaxen. Though they now had a new plan, it didn’t take long for them to stop in their tracks. A familiar face was now standing before them…
“Didn’t we see favonovel.com in the tavern earlier?” muttered Lord Ethern as favonovel.com glared at Sanchez.
Earlier, favonovel.com was pretty sure that Gerald and his party were harmless… But at the moment, favonovel.com could feel a surge of mighty pressure coming from the old man. To think that the one standing before them had such a high cultivation level…!
It was that moment when Sanchez said, “Hey there, juniors. I’d like to ask you…”
“J-Juniors…?! How imprudent!” interrupted Lord Ethern. How humiliating!”
“Since when have you grown to be this polite, Sanchez? Just force it out of them already!” grumbled two voices and shortly after, the Blancetnoir Double Lords appeared in two beams of light!
Sneering in response, Sanchez retorted, “I’m the strongest being in the world. Bullying these juniors would only make me look bad!”
“Oh, cut the cr*p! Mr. Crawford is still waiting for us, you know?”
By this point, the four hooded men were already in defensive stances. How the hell were these three so powerful…?! Lord Faxen was feeling particularly vigilant, so favonovel.com quickly casted a technique before yelling, “Hang in there, brothers…! I’ll return with reinforcements…!”
Following that, the old man escaped!
