The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 884: Chapter 884: Putting On Airs

Jing Yan felt that the speed of this warship was very slow, but in reality, this warship was of Holy Artifact level quality, and its speed was quite fast and very valuable.

However, how could a flying Holy Artifact compare in speed to Jing Yan, who possessed the Seven-layered Sky Wings?

”Everyone, pay attention, we’ve arrived!”

Departing from the Chu Family Camp, after almost two days, Chu Xianlie’s voice spread throughout the entire warship.

The Netherworld Sect Camp had been reached.

The Holy Artifact warship began to slow down, gradually descending. When it was about a hundred meters from the ground, it stopped, and the people on board flew out and landed on the ground.

Jing Yan followed his mother, Chu Lianxing, and Fang Ruoyu was also beside them.

Old Second and other puppets stood behind Jing Yan.

”Jing Yan, fellow Daoists!”

Chu Xianlie walked to Jing Yan’s side and cupped his hands towards Jing Yan and Old Second and the other puppets.

”It’s been hard on you all. Up ahead is where the Netherworld Sect Camp is located.” Chu Xianlie pointed to the buildings a few thousand meters ahead.

Arriving at the Netherworld Sect Camp, Chu Xianlie specifically greeted Jing Yan and Old Second and other puppets to show respect.

Of course, this respect was mainly for Old Second and the other puppets. If it weren’t for Old Second showing such powerful strength, Chu Xianlie probably wouldn’t have been so cautious.

”What’s so hard about this?”

”Since we’ve arrived at this Netherworld Sect Camp, let’s quickly go in.” Old Seven said, shaking his head.

Upon hearing Old Seven’s words, Jing Yan smiled, while Chu Xianlie could only shake his head helplessly.

”This fellow Daoist may not know, we cannot go directly in right now. We need to wait for the Netherworld Sect to send someone to guide us. If we suddenly enter the vicinity of the Netherworld Sect Camp, they would be displeased, which could easily trigger conflict. However, earlier on the warship, I already sent a message to the Netherworld Sect Camp, they should be sending someone to receive us soon.” Chu Xianlie explained with a smile.

”The Netherworld Sect has so many rules.” Old Seven widened his eyes, showing some displeasure.

Chu Xianlie glanced at Old Seven, then looked at Jing Yan.

”Jing Yan, the Netherworld Sect is a First-grade force in the Quicksand Divine Domain, our Chu Family cannot afford to provoke them. They have always been strong, so later, if the people from the Netherworld Sect Camp are rude, you must bear with it. You should try to control these fellow Daoists.” Chu Xianlie sent a voice transmission to Jing Yan.

He was afraid that Old Seven and other puppets might clash with the people from the Netherworld Sect. If it escalates into a fight, it would be uncontrollable.

In fact, he was somewhat worried that Jing Yan might not be able to control Old Second and other puppets. He had personally witnessed Old Second’s strength, which was definitely not below his own Second Realm of Holy Path. Could such a powerful person truly obey Jing Yan?

Thinking about it, it seemed impossible.

”Commander, you don’t need to worry. As long as the Netherworld Sect doesn’t go too far, I won’t mind.” Jing Yan also understood Chu Xianlie’s intention and spoke directly.

Chu Xianlie had discreetly sent a voice transmission to Jing Yan to avoid offending Old Second and the other puppets, but Jing Yan was too lazy to respond with a voice transmission. He believed that Old Second and the other puppets wouldn’t care about Chu Xianlie’s thoughts. Even if Chu Xianlie spoke his mind directly, Old Second and the others wouldn’t hold it against him.

Hearing Jing Yan speak directly, Chu Xianlie showed a hint of embarrassment on his face. He smiled and said no more.

The people of the Chu Family waited in place.

A cup of tea’s time passed, then thirty minutes, then an hour, then two hours.

The people from the Netherworld Sect still hadn’t appeared.

Even Jing Yan couldn’t help but frown. The Netherworld Sect was really putting on airs.

”Commander, didn’t you already send a message to the Netherworld Sect Camp from the warship? Why haven’t they sent anyone to greet us yet?” Jing Yan asked Chu Xianlie.

Here, the Netherworld Sect Camp was only a few thousand meters away. Even an ordinary Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner could arrive in just a few breaths’ time. But now, the people of the Chu Family had disembarked from the warship for over an hour, and yet there was no sign of anyone from the Netherworld Sect Camp.

”Jing Yan, don’t worry. Let’s wait a bit longer, I’ll urge them again.” Chu Xianlie took out the Communication Crystal Stone and sent another message to the Netherworld Sect Camp.

”The Netherworld Sect is a First-grade force, much stronger than our Chu Family. It’s normal for them to put on some airs.” Chu Zhen interjected upon hearing the conversation between Jing Yan and Chu Xianlie.

”Hmph.” Jing Yan glanced at Chu Zhen, snorting coldly. He didn’t want to bother with Chu Zhen.

”Commander, what does the Chu Family’s contest for new mining rights with the Jade Book Sect have to do with the Netherworld Sect? Can’t the Chu Family and Jade Book Sect just choose a place to compete for mining rights?” While waiting, Jing Yan suddenly thought of this question and asked directly.

”The new mining source is indeed related to the Netherworld Sect.”

”Jing Yan, you may not know. Whether it’s the Jade Book Sect or our Chu Family who wins the new mining rights, half of the resources mined must be given to the Netherworld Sect.” Chu Xianlie said.

”The Netherworld Sect is really domineering!” Jing Yan frowned.

”They are a First-grade force, and they have several practitioners at the Saint Realm Third Stage. It’s natural for them to be domineering.” Chu Zhen interjected again.

”Chu Zhen, I’m not talking to you. Shut up.” Jing Yan rebuked Chu Zhen.

Chu Zhen’s eyes grew cold.

”The Netherworld Sect is the authority in our area. When it comes to major matters in the region, if the Netherworld Sect wants to intervene, they can. Even in conflicts with other Divine Domains, the Netherworld Sect leads the charge.” Chu Xianlie quickly added before Chu Zhen could speak again.

”Understood.” Jing Yan nodded.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, a figure in armor finally appeared from the buildings a few thousand meters away, walking slowly towards the people of the Chu Family.

After a long while, this person finally approached.

”Is the Commander of the Chu Family here?” The person raised his eyes and scanned the Chu Family members before asking.

Judging by his attire, he seemed to be just an ordinary guard. However, in front of the Chu Family, he had an arrogant posture.

He clearly recognized Chu Xianlie, but after scanning the crowd, his gaze still landed on Chu Xianlie, yet he still asked ’Is the Commander of the Chu Family here,’ which was obviously disrespectful.

Chu Xianlie’s eyes flickered slightly, then he revealed a smile, ”I am Chu Xianlie, the Commander of the Chu Family Camp. Please lead the way, brother.”

Chu Xianlie was indeed very patient. For an ordinary Dao Emperor Realm guard to act so arrogantly in front of him, a Commander of the Chu Family Camp who was in the Second Realm of Holy Path, and for Chu Xianlie to still manage to smile, even though it might have been a forced smile, it showed his remarkable patience.

”Hmm, follow me!” The Netherworld Sect guard nodded towards Chu Xianlie, then turned and walked away.

The people of the Chu Family followed.
