“Beast King, no need to hesitate. I think we should take a step back and let Logan and the others leave for now. The moment we dismantle the Destruction Array, we can immediately hunt them down. They won’t be able to escape to the end of the earth. As long as you give the command, none of the nearby Lords would dare to harbor them.”

The Half-Step Saint Seat Demon Beast stepped forward and whispered to the Beast King. The current situation had become strained. Logan and his team were ready to sacrifice everything to survive. If pushed to their limits, they would go to extremes. Compared to the Supreme Treasure, their lives didn’t matter. The Supreme Treasure must not be destroyed.

The Beast King sank into deep thought, weighing the pros and cons. The question was whether to let Logan and his team go. Technically, he was a Saint, capable of traveling thousands of miles in an instant, so catching up with Logan’s team would be easy. But he was also afraid of potential interference from Heavenly Saint Daoist, who also held a Saint Seat. fгeewebnovёl.com

Heavenly Saint Daoist was dying, and would certainly strike back before death, even if it meant risking everything to retaliate. Logan and his team had become his enemies. If they joined forces, he would be at a significant disadvantage, not only endangering the Supreme Treasure but making the entire Demon Beast clan vulnerable to destruction.

However, he had another thought. The Half-Step Saint Seat Demon Beast was right. They had no other choice at this point. Logan’s plot was far more cunning than his, so he wouldn’t be easily misled, unlike ordinary people. The longer this situation dragged on, the more it would work against him. Who knows when the Destruction Array might explode.

And if he let Logan go, with a simple command of his own, the nearby Lords wouldn’t dare not obey his orders. No matter where Logan escapes to, it would be the same. He’d always be under his control, and as long as he catches up with Logan’s team within a day, they wouldn’t have time to collaborate with Heavenly Saint Daoist.

After sorting out his thoughts, the Beast King nodded, “Logan, I agree to let you leave the Mountain Range. But once you go, who will dismantle the Destruction Array? If you don’t keep your promises and manage to escape, it shouldn’t be all up to me. A negotiation is supposed to be fair.”

“Once I’m safe after leaving, I’ll send someone with a map to break the array. You’ll just need to follow the instructions on the map, and the array can be dismantled within a day.”

Logan replied with a light smile, “Of course, if you break your promise and come after us before a day has passed, it will be futile. A day after the array is dismantled, you still need to continuously infuse spiritual energy. If you don’t, the Inner Alchemy will expand and may even explode, so you definitely can’t leave the Mountain Range.”

“You’re quite the schemer.” The Beast King responded coldly, “Fine, I won’t be nitpicking about this. I’ll make some concessions. You can leave now. The barrier has been lifted. Remember to deliver the map of the array within a day, or else I’ll hunt you down to the ends of the earth.”

“Don’t worry, unlike you, I always keep my promises.” Logan breathed a sigh of relief and promptly led Lowen Shingo and the others away. Grateful to Logan, Shingo left with his Daoist protector. If it weren’t for him, they surely would have died in the hands of the Beast King.

Upon reaching the edge of the Mountain Range, they found that the barrier had already disappeared. They naturally left, feeling as though they had just awoken from a dream. They were utterly lucky to have escaped from the clutches of the Saint. Previously, they had resolved themselves to a slim chance of survival.

At the exit of the Mountain Range, the crew gathered together. Getting rid of the Beast King only marked temporary safety. The Beast King was bound to hunt them down, not letting his loss go unresolved.

Lowen Shingo turned to Logan, “You’re going to be alone. Having all of us together should be somehow comforting. Why not come back to the Sect with me? Though the Sect’s influence isn’t major, there are at least some ways we can defend ourselves, and the Sect’s protective array can keep us safe.”

“That won’t be necessary. I think it’s best if we part ways. Our alliance was only temporary. Now that we have left the Mountain Range, it wouldn’t be appropriate to stick together for too long. We all have our own destinies, and if fate allows, we might meet again someday.”

Logan waved his hand and said firmly, “As for the Beast King’s pursuit, it was clear to me that he would only target me. If our team split up, he would definitely not involve you all, ensuring your safety. It wasn’t out of confidence.”

It wasn’t Logan being overconfident. He was clear in his heart that the Beast King had decided to kill him out of fear that he would join the Heavenly Saint Daoist. Therefore, the Beast King wanted Logan to disappear to avoid gaining yet another enemy.

Although Lowen Shingo had a decent talent, he was still nothing more than an ant in the eyes of the mighty Saint Seat Beast King. As soon as they split up, the Beast King would definitely not chase Lowen Shingo. Instead, he would focus on hunting down Logan. As for Lowen Shingo’s Sect, they could easily protect Lowen, but why would they protect an outsider like Logan?

Upon hearing this, Lowen Shingo became anxious, “Lowen Shingo is not a coward. You have saved me several times. If I were to just up and leave, it would be a disgrace. If we stick together, though I may not be able to increase our combat power much, at least you won’t be alone.”

“That won’t be necessary, I’ll be with Bart Cloud. Having too many people might actually be a burden. When facing the Beast King’s pursuit, the fewer people, the better. At least I won’t have any burden on me. You better hurry back to the Sect. You have just one day to make your escape,” Logan still shook his head and responded.

In all honesty, the reason Logan had crossed the Beast King was because he had constructed a Spirit Gathering Array for his breakthrough, and the triggered Thunder Tribulation had frightened the Beast King. A series of complex events had followed, leading the Beast King to forget his gratitude and turn against him. In fact, Lowen Shingo was innocent in all of this.

Lowen Shingo wanted to say more but eventually conceded, “Fine. Though we haven’t known each other for long, we will always be the best of friends. If you do indeed fall at the hands of the Beast King, and if one day I manage to become a Saint, I will take revenge for you. Although, given my abilities, that seems rather unlikely.”

“I will not fall easily.” Logan laughed loudly and then left with Bart Cloud. Lowen Shingo watched Logan disappear into the distance for a long while, feeling melancholic and sentimental, then left with his Daoist protector. This farewell might mean not seeing each other for a lifetime. That’s how cruel the path of cultivation was.

On their way, Bart Cloud asked, “Where do we go next? Once the Destruction Array is dismantled, the Beast King will surely come after us. I suggest we don’t hand over the array map. That way, we’ll always have a guard, and the Beast King won’t dare to seek his revenge.”

“I keep my promises, unlike the Beast King,” Logan said with a solemn gaze. “Drag it out for a day or two, maybe, but he would be furious if we don’t hand over the array map in time, and he will definitely come after us, regardless of the Demon Beast clan’s Supreme Treasure.”

Where to go next? Logan was at a loss. They seemed to have reached a dead-end, and it was difficult to face the pursuit of a Saint Seat. There was nowhere to hide under the sky, unless another Saint Seat decided to help. But Saints rarely appeared in the world, making it hard to find one.
