Chapter 947 - Count

Grikori was able to run almost twenty miles before the Purple Mist Sect members caught him. His strange shadow powers made it very tricky to pin him down, but it only took a small amount of their poison to slow him down and make him easy prey. Sage caught up with them and sent all three to the Inner World together. Thankfully...

Chapter 946 - Into the Fire

“Have you had enough fun yet?”

“Fun? I’m just trying to see what he can do.”

“You’re just wasting time because you’re itching for a fight. Don’t try to pretend.”

At this time, Sage was interrupted by the voice of Guan Zhenyan. He was just starting to enjoy the battle, but that excitement ...

Chapter 945 - Polearms

A moment later, Sage found out first hand that his guess was correct. The green eyed zombies gave him a little more space, leaving a large clearing like this gloomy forest was a dance floor, or a bare knuckle boxing ring. The burly woman and the thin Count stepped into the ‘ring’ and lifted their large weapons. They sprea...

Chapter 944 - Zombies

Sage wasn’t sure what Count Voctem hoped to accomplish with these empowered zombies. They weren’t instantly defeated by the First Light, but they still weren’t very powerful. He could send them flying with a single punch and with just a little more effort cleave them apart. After knocking a few more of them back he saw ...

Chapter 943 - Ghosts

After this flurry of attacks, the spreading Parasitic Roots seemed to cause an immediate result. The front of the tree immediately split apart, but it did not seem to be because of the roots. Instead this split grew into a large door sized opening and from a dark alcove Count Voctem showed his face once again. He frowned at t...

Chapter 942 - Mist

Sage treated these ghosts with caution, but that didn’t mean he feared them. He had quite a few methods that were supposed to be good when used against spirit type beings, but since this was the first time he’d faced ghosts in this manner he took the opportunity to run some tests. Purely physical attacks were basically us...

Chapter 941 - Fruit

Having removed the immediate threat from the servant, Grikori, as well as the Cerberus and any surprises that might be waiting in the carriage, Sage turned his attention to Voctem. It was also somewhat of a loss as he hadn’t dealt with Grikori permanently, but the Blacksilver Pawns and the injuries should keep him out of th...

Chapter 940 - Shadow

With the huge scythe blade swinging towards him, Sage finally felt a bit of threat from this Count Voctem. Before the weapon could strike him a large figure appeared in front of it. A nearly ten foot tall figure appeared between the two of them and interposed its body between Sage and the scythe. The large form used its hand ...

Chapter 939 - Hassle

The manor owner led him back to the side of the carriage and opened the door before climbing inside. Sage followed after him and they sat upon a luxurious set of soft cushions upholstered with a thick dark leather covered in way too much stitchwork. Whatever beasts it came from, they were not taken down easily. The leather fr...

Chapter 938 - Gloomy

The strange servant didn’t stop him, instead hustling to catch up and then move in front of Sage to lead the way. The huge hallway was more like a dark tunnel without a shred of light outside of that created by the open doorway behind them. After a few moments the darkness was broken by a light source up ahead and Sage foun...

Chapter 937 - Debts

Flustered by his words, the manor owner spoke rapidly to one of his subordinates and they brought a tray carrying multiple Storage Rings to Sage before he left, handing them over with a smile, “Forgive us, Sir. We forgot about the interest. Please take the extra as our compensation for making you wait so long.”

Sage...

Chapter 936 - Climbing

Climbing the levels of the Tianxia Capital was quite an odd experience. Each of the floors felt like a gigantic city, and after passing through the first ten they started to become far more varied. Some had huge open wilderness areas with immense nature preserves and wild animals roaming freely. Others were rolling farmlands ...

Chapter 935 - Capital

Putting aside his thoughts of the nature of this world, Sage traveled into the first level of the Tianxia Capital and saw that it was less like a city and more like a gigantic port. Most of the people entering the city were actually here to drop off and pick up goods for transport. Even those who weren’t traveling with a la...

Chapter 934 - New

Flying down towards the surface entrance, Sage saw a massive line waiting to enter the tower while there was also a steady flow heading out. The line was filled with a motley crew of all sorts of different beings and creatures. House-sized wagons being pulled by Demonic Beasts were quite common and the appearance of those bea...

Chapter 933 - Task

“One, two, three,” Sage’s golden eyes passed over the object dotted through the sky in front of him, “Thirty four.”

Finishing the count, he couldn’t help but to whistle softly with amazement. The objects in the sky he was counting came in many different shapes and styles. Some were wide and stocky, others we...

Chapter 932 - Decision

At this point, Sage felt he’d reached a decision point. He could continue to wait around to defend his Clan and pass the decades until his next appointment came up. Or, he could take care of an obligation that he still had plenty of time to fulfill. This second obligation had a far longer period before it had to be undertak...

Chapter 931 - Acquiesce

After handling the potential leaks from the Chong Clan, Sage paid a visit to one other suspicious party. This time he brought more than just the Purple Mist Sect. He also brought along his wife, Jiao, as well as some of his descendants who were skilled diplomats. That’s because they’d returned to a place he hadn’t been ...

Chapter 930 - Restriction

The problem was how difficult they were to perform. They required helpless subjects, long procedures, and consumed resources to create their effects just like the products other Professions produced. Worse yet, if a Restriction were to fail, it would cause permanent harm to the person it was placed upon. It was much safer and...

Chapter 929 - Done

The Chong Clan filed into the room in groups where they were suddenly overwhelmed by a powerful sleeping poison and then sent to the Inner World. The quantity of poison required to knock out the whole clan of thousands might be too much for others to handle, but Sage could simply have the Lang Clan on the Inner World manufact...

Chapter 928 - Contract

“Make your announcement, then pass control to me. Unless you’d prefer to be the one using your Sect Protecting Array to trap your own Clan.”

Xie Bian’s face twisted with his declaration. This order was truly distasteful to her, but if she trusted Lang Sheng’s words then it would be best for the Chong Clan to c...

Chapter 927 - Enemies

Sage was faced with a difficult position. The only way to ensure the Four Major Businesses didn’t get their hands on the Insect Immortal Index was to take very drastic measures. If this concerned only the profits of the Prosperity Company, Sage would never do something so radical, but the strength of the Lang Clan was very ...

Chapter 926 - Allies

“I’m glad you could take the time out of your busy schedule to meet with me, Xie Bian. You’re the Clan Head now, so you’ve probably got endless problems to deal with.”

“Others may have forgotten, but I will always remember the part you played in getting me this position, Lang Sheng. Aren’t you busy as well...

Chapter 925 - Deals

Thousand Treasures had put all the biggest traveling merchants in the Dou Kingdom out of business because they could never move goods faster than Transportation Arrays over long distances. At least that was the case when they had access to every type of commodity. With the introduction of a new supply of items that Thousand T...

Chapter 924 - Counters

The fact that the Four Major Businesses used ‘bandits’, and conspiracies before attempting to compete in the business field was only further justification to the Lang Clan that they chose correctly. If this was how they handled all their business, then it was time for someone to knock them down a few pegs.

In additi...

Chapter 923 - Troublesome

The conflict between these two sides started out with loss for both. Or at least that’s what the Four Major Businesses thought of it. They had no idea of the scale of lower level resources that the Lang Clan had access to. The quality of the resources on the Inner World were somewhat dependent on Sage’s own strength as we...

Chapter 922 - Difficulties

With a third of their number devoting themselves to defense, the rest of the Dragoons were unable to completely overwhelm the mercenaries who outnumbered them. Or at least that would be the conventional wisdom. This expectation was completely overturned by the weapons carried by the Dragoons. With these armaments, it was almo...

Chapter 921 - Motion

The Four Major Businesses of the Dou Kingdom had a very prestigious name, and it would certainly be beneath them to openly go to war with another group. As a business, it was expected they would defend their assets, but if they were in competition with another business and directly attacked them, wouldn’t that be an admissi...

Chapter 920 - Discussion

Sage was a little surprised to see such flirting right out of the gate, but he was briefed beforehand that this was one of Zhuge Xinyan’s most common tactics. There were many men that were easily swayed by a pretty face and just like having a gorgeous auctioneer, having a pretty and flirtatious business partner gave them an...

Chapter 919 - Business

Since they’d taken the respectful approach, the most relevant members of the Lang Clan were able to assemble properly to greet them. That meant those most skilled in business were in attendance, namely Ling and the Clan Leader, Yating. Yating inherited a sense for business from his mother, and this acumen got him the spot a...

Chapter 918 - Advancement

The difference between the two worlds had only become greater and greater over time. With the great influx of sea life from the Depths, the oceans of the Inner World became far more diverse. Sage had slowly collected many species of land creatures before heading to the Depths, and while it wasn’t comparable to the actual ou...
