Despite denouncing the Poison Dragon's act of destroying the Azure Tree, the Heavenly Demon shocked the onlookers by drilling directly into the tree. By the time he flew back out, the towering tree swayed by the wind as if it had lost its backbone…
'It's harvest time.'
Only Leo knew that this seemingly cruel act was none other than the Heavenly Demon's attempt to save the tree!
"What is he carrying?"
The scattered whispers didn't stop as some noticed the large shining sapphire that the flying demon held in his hand. However, a few quickly realized his intent.
"He actually extracted the core seed in such a good shape?!"
"Was it because the tree was on its last breath?"
The Azure Tree was known for being extremely stubborn about changing location just as it never let go of its pranks. While it wasn't strong enough to offensively resist if someone took advantage of its emergence to steal its core, it would never let go before damaging it in mutual destruction.
Thanks to being close to death, however, the wise Heavenly Demon easily made use of the opportunity to take the core back. This way, a situation like this wouldn't happen again!
'Oh…'
[ Plot Change confirmed. Epic Event occurrence has been detected. ]
'I almost thought that I wouldn't get one this time around.'
Despite all the changes that he caused and the deviations that resulted from them, Leo had been patiently waiting for the voice's message to appear in his mind. Whether it was when the Poison Dragon died or when Cheon Chang's survival was confirmed, everything had been silent to this moment for some reason.
[ The Secondary Main Character's Background Weakening Event has had its effect nullified under the influence of the Reader's character. ]
[ You have received 796 Reading Points. ]
'Perhaps this is just how drastic the last change was.'
Having created a great divergence point at the end of the Mount Hua Sword Conference, Leo felt like everything was indeed possible. Just like how the Roc Parrot appeared at the last minute to turn things back to their path, another monster of threat could have appeared to take Cheon Chang's life.
Taking this instance as an example, it was only when an event reached its true finale that he could be counted to have created a change after the butterfly effect had gotten out of hand to this point. The Heavenly Demon's flight in their direction basically counted as the finishing line!
"Now then, who might our guests be?"
Looking at Cheon Jeong and the others in amusement, the Heavenly Demon's wings disappeared as he dropped down in front of them before automatically turning to Leo and Cheon Chang who hid the pale siblings behind them.
Cheon Chang only glanced at Leo, keeping his silence. Although he found the conversation earlier quite interesting, he believed that his junior brother had to prove his own words if he wanted to sound plausible.
"Right, who are these?"
Cheon Jeong similarly questioned the siblings' identity. A faint light emerged from her eyes once she saw Bing Baek's beauty before she looked at Yeon in surprise.
'Is he picking up other girls on the battlefield?'
The Blade Spirit found it unlikely for Leo to look elsewhere considering how tightly close the two were, especially since Yeon didn't lose to this special girl. Regardless, Yeon's pupils were already glowing in deep scarlet…
"These two are related to the Ice King of the Northern Ice Palace. It was me who asked them to join us to discuss an important topic that could be of help to us, Society Leader."
After clearing his throat, Leo stepped to the side to clearly show Bing Baek's unique appearance. He found it hard to speak under the Heavenly Demon's presence, but he had to do what he had to do.
"Oh, what an interesting find… I heard you also warned Jeong of the monster's appearance. I will be hearing about this important topic when we get back, then."
Thankfully, the Heavenly Demon seemed interested enough that he accepted things as they were. Although he was out of Mount Heaven, he received reports of Cheon Jeong's decision. What he heard was enough to pique his already existent curiosity in regards to Leo.
'I shouldn't have agreed after all…'
Bing Baek's face remained frozen, but she was on the brink of collapse deep inside. Just as expected, she was already meeting someone this dangerous. If it wasn't for the fact that Leo's last offer had strangely triggered a positive reaction from her instincts, she would have just run away like that.
'Let's just hold on for now.'
Even though Bing Baek felt like she was going into the tiger's lair, she had no other choice but to follow through after having come this far. There was a huge risk involved, but this could be her last chance to escape the suffocating control she was under. She was willing to bet on it for the sake of change!
Seeing the dangerous glint in Yeon's eyes, Leo pretended not to understand her jealousy as he pointed out Bing Baek's purpose. Although the cold girl was indeed beautiful, he only viewed her as the ladder he needed to climb to achieve his target.
Hearing Leo's comforting words, the killing intent emanating from Yeon slightly calmed down as he walked by her side. Under everyone's eyes, the group containing three of Murim's strongest quickly left the crowd.
"Stop right there!"
However, it seemed like if no one attempted to court death, an event couldn't come to true completion…
'She is someone who should have run away by now…'
The Emei Sect Master was already breaking out of the script by joining the final bout for the Sky Fruit, but here she was, going as far as to order the Heavenly Demon!
"Who gave you the right to walk away with the Azure Tree's core like this?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
