“Not quite, our sect is called the Shingo Sect, and we have over a thousand disciples. Our sect leader is nearly at the Half-step Saint Seat, and our top ten elders are all within the Dominator Realm. Moreover, there are over fifty disciples within the Throne Realm.” said the leader with pride. Although our sect could not be counted as the topmost sect, it is still considered a first-rate sect. Several lords from around a million miles around pay tribute to us.

Another person added with a clever smile, “However, every member of our sect, from the leaders to the followers, all carry the name Shingo. So if you wish to join our sect, the first thing you must do is change your surname. Of course, you need not worry, as it seems none of you have reached the Transcendent Tier, and therefore do not meet the criteria to join our sect.”

Logan and his companions were embarrassed and felt a bit of difficulty. The leader of the Shingo Sect was already at the Half-step Saint Seat, just one step away from the Saint Seat. Besides, this is only one faction, there are at least a dozen or so factions in this Demon Beast Mountain Range, meaning at least a dozen or more with the Half-step Saint Seat.

Although the Half-step Saint Seat wasn’t as powerful as the Saint Seat, it was not much weaker either. At least to cultivators below the dominator, if they want to save Lowen Shingo in front of these factions, the difficulty can be imagined. If Lowen Shingo’s protector confessed everything, these factions would definitely set up a net to trap them.

Although Logan was somewhat worried, he knew he had to save Lowen Shingo. They needed to devise a more careful plan. To calmly leave among the many factions would be impossible relying on their combat power alone. The only thing they could take advantage of was their battle formation, after all, they had managed to entrap Heavenly Saint Daoist before.

The lead person furrowed his brow, looking at the group, “Something’s not right, why are you guys asking so many questions? Our sect’s strength has nothing to do with you. Don’t think just because we happened to meet on the journey, that you can forget your place. Leave at once, understand?”

The reason they were acquainted with Logan before was merely to find some cannon fodders. But now that they had arrived, and they couldn’t enter the mountain range temporarily, people like Logan naturally lost their uses, so they wanted to drive them away. If the elders found out that outsiders had been brought along, they would surely attack in rage.

“I was just asking casually.” Logan took out a big stack of spirit stones. When he saw the spirit stones, the man’s eyes lit up. Logan was indeed generous; these spirit stones were at least three hundred, equivalent to half a year of his rewards.

After receiving the spirit stones, his attitude changed in an instant: “Apologies for the misunderstanding before. If there’s anything you need to ask, I’ll tell you everything I know. We are all here for the same opportunities, we shouldn’t keep secrets from each other, right? Moreover, the strength of the Shingo Sect is not outstanding, to be blunt, we are just here to make up the numbers.”

“I just was simply curious. I heard that something happened to your sect. Supposedly the young master knew something about two Saint seats, and that’s why many factions captured him. But shouldn’t your sect conceal the young master and keep him out of the spotlight? How did so many factions find out?”

Logan put on a puzzled look and asked, “After all, he’s the young master. He is supposed to be the next sect leader, and your sect leader only has this one child. If something were to happen to him, what would become of the sect? Would you have to choose from the younger generation? But there would be no blood relation with the sect leader.”

“You just don’t understand. Our sect has a lot of young talents. The sect leader can adopt a new child. If he treasures blood relations, our sect leader is still young, he can always have another child. Everyone in our sect carries the surname Shingo, which shows that blood relation is not that important.”

The man chuckled, looked around, and continued, “Actually, the sect leader was furious when the young master was captured. However, he had no choice. The elders had agreed, and the sect leader couldn’t decide on his own. Besides, the news had already spread that if the young master was not handed over, the whole sect would be in trouble.”

“The young master is a good person, and every disciple of the sect hopes that he will become the sect leader. But since this has happened, even if the young master miraculously survives, it will be impossible for him to advance further in the future. No one can guarantee that the young master will not harbor resentment and seek revenge on the sect in the future.”

Another person took over the conversation, “Speaking of it, it’s really bad luck for the young master. A trip out for cultivation saw a huge improvement in his realm, which was a good thing, and his position in the sect should have been more secure. However, due to the matter of the two Saint Seat powerhouses falling, the young master naturally got involved.”

“Originally, the young master didn’t know anything and the entire sect had dropped its guard. But after the elders interrogated, Lowen Shingo’s protector confessed everything. As a result, the sect could no longer keep it a secret. The elders didn’t originally plan to disclose it to the outside world. They wanted Lowen Shingo to hand over any supreme treasures and opportunities first, believing that his breakthrough was thanks to a chance encounter with the Beast King and the Heavenly Saint Daoist.”

“However, the young master kept silent. With many factions gathering in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and the sect wanted a share of the spoils. The elders decided to hand over Lowen Shingo to secure a quota. If they could find an opportunity within the mountain range, the Shingo Sect would occupy thirty percent of it.”

Although many factions were reluctant, they truly could not find a single clue about the demise of Heavenly Saint Daoist and Beast King. They found only one witness – Lowen Shingo who knew the truth. After some back and forth, they agreed. Even after being captured and brought to this mountain range for three days, no matter the faction, or the means used, Lowen Shingo never spoke a word, even when he was on his last breath.

“With things having gotten this far, despite the sect leader’s repeated attempts to intervene, he eventually held back due to various factors. If Lowen Shingo remains unwilling to disclose anything by early tomorrow, he will truly be executed by the various factions. Although the truth of Heavenly Saint Daoist and the Beast King’s demise still remains unknown, it’s about making an example out of him.”

The leader sighed and continued: “After all, there are powerful beings in these factions, who are ready to turn Lowen Shingo’s body into a puppet. As long as they successfully control the puppet, they can make him speak everything without consciousness. Puppets generally won’t have emotions, nor will they keep any secrets from their owners.”

“This is just too abominable!” Bart Cloud couldn’t help but clench his fist. For the supposed chance of the two Saint Seats, the methods of these factions were extremely cruel. They really didn’t care about anything. Neither Heavenly Saint Daoist nor Beast King left anything, and they and Logan didn’t gain any benefits at all.

The only possibility was the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast race. Although it was obtained by Logan, it was only a spatial magic treasure and could not immediately enhance a cultivator’s progress. Bart Cloud was desolate for a while. These factions would surely guard Lowen Shingo tightly, perhaps with a Half-step Saint Seat by his side constantly.

Shingo Butcher shrugged. Originally, he just wanted to join in the excitement, but after learning about all this, he found the situation to be extremely difficult. This was a hundred times more difficult than what Logan and the others faced when dealing with the Westman Family. But at the same time, he felt sorry for Lowen Shingo, who had become the victim of major factions.
