Chapter 558: Hurried 2

Two of the Elders that accompanied him were the first to react before they all scanned their surroundings vigilantly.

The White Dew Gate experts around them tensed up while their powers circulated around, a display that they were ready to make a move at any time.

Suddenly, they heard a demure and charming female voice in their surroundings.

"You are truly worthy to be called the hidden experts of Southern Holy Fist Gate. I thought that I had concealed myself well enough, but never expected that there would be people who would be aware of my whereabouts from twenty meters away."

The female voice spoke in a strangely accented East Continent language, but before she had finished speaking, a bewitching woman in a black veil and a tight fitting short black silk dress had appeared on the black earth in front of the plains suddenly.

The woman's black hair was tied up and she held a long, thin sword in her hand. She was poised gracefully as she stood in front of the carriage alone, blocking its path. She had a pair of eyes that were as bright as stars, while the corners of her eyes were turned upwards slightly, making it look as if she were smiling.

"Demoness Lola!!" One of the two Elders could not help but yell in horror when he recognized her.

"Has Demon Gate come into being?!" The other Elder flipped his hands over before two silver daggers appeared in his palms suddenly. An extremely grave expression remained on his face.

The accompanying White Dew Gate experts had never crossed paths with people from Demon Gate before, but when they saw the stern looks on their Elders' faces, their hearts sank when they immediately realized the true power of their opponent.

"To the hidden expert who calls himself the White Cloud Gate Master, are you really unwilling to come down and meet me?" Demoness Lola smiled daintily as she walked towards the carriage slowly.

Pop!

When the tip of Lola's foot stepped within ten meters of the carriage, her expression changed suddenly while her gentle smile stiffened instantly.

Bang!

She stepped back immediately and leaped into the air like an arrow before flying backward a few moments later. Apparently, she was escaping even though she had just arrived.

Shh!

The curtains of the carriage were lifted gently while a light breeze blew past. A hand reached out in midair and caught the Demoness immediately.

Lola retreated a few meters away frantically but fell on the floor once before leaping backward quickly again.

That hand seemed as if it was able to pass through space because of some strange magic. It also attracted everyone's attention as no one paid any mind to the owner of the hand itself.

The large hand traveled a distance of more than ten minutes within a few moments before grabbing the Demoness by the throat gently while her pale, pretty face looked on in fear.

There was a sudden flash in their surroundings.

Lola's vision became blurry before she realized moments later that she was already sitting inside the carriage despite being unable to move her body at all. She was lying down on the knees of the man inside the carriage obediently while her black hair fanned around her like a waterfall.

"Black Orchid, are you alright…?" Garen reached his hand out to stroke Lola's long hair gently.

Lola, whose delicate form was still trembling moments earlier, now shook awake suddenly. She raised her head with much difficulty before laying her eyes upon a man who was as handsome as the Sun God.

Marshall Black Orchid had once planned to poison someone, and that night was etched deeply into Garen's memories.

Although Lola's appearance did not resemble Black Orchid, their quick-witted temperaments were eerily similar, meaning that if Black Orchid had not trained her personally, it would be impossible for both of them to have such similar qualities.

"Proceed with the journey."

The White Dew Gate experts looked at each other before realizing that the woman had been captured in that moment earlier, and was now unable to resist at all.

"Perhaps that person was not from Behemoth Gate… But merely an imposter…" said someone quietly.

Both of the Elders swallowed their own saliva and glanced at each other before noticing the apparent astonishment in the other person's eyes.

Although they had already anticipated that Garen would be powerful, they had never expected that he would actually be this strong. Other people would be unaware of this, but as Grandmasters of Combat who could detect Lola's presence, once they felt the heavy blood qi that surrounded her whole body and realized that she truly belonged to the Grandmaster of Combat level, they knew that she was definitely stronger than themselves.

But now she seemed like a baby chick in Garen's hands that could not rebel against him at all. Such powerful strength… Wouldn't it mean that he was undefeatable?!!

Moments later, the carriage began to move slowly again.

The control he had on Lola who was in the carriage was finally lifted.

She seemed to be unable to get up and continued lying on Garen's body instead. She also pressed her ample breasts against Garen's knees intentionally. A faint sweet smell wafted from her body and permeated throughout the carriage slowly, making everyone feel relaxed and joyful.

"Don't tell me you know Teacher Black Orchid?" she asked softly in a gentle voice, giving off a strong pitiful feeling as if she was an adorable little animal that could easily evoke the man's desire to protect her.

"You're very much like her." Garen allowed Lola to lie on his knees while he ran his hand through her smooth, shiny black hair, combing through it gently.

"Don't tell me that you're truly the legendary White Cloud Gate Master, First Heavenly General of Southern Holy Fist Gate?" asked Lola daintily. She knew that she was unable to fight back, but her opponent currently had no ill intentions towards her either. Therefore, she decided to clear up the situation before saying anything else.

Garen smiled slightly but did not reply. Instead, he turned his face away and looked out of the carriage window.

Boom!! Boom boom boom boom!!

Suddenly, series of explosions could be heard from a further distance away while the ground shook slightly.

"The soldiers from the Hu Army are practicing, huh…" Lola's eyes darted around. "I wonder what Gate Master's plans are for coming into being this time? Chief Hu Qingzhi of the Hu Army has a good relationship with my Behemoth Gate, perhaps he can help Your Excellency."

"The Hu Army, hmm?" Garen looked in that direction. "My goal is very simple, I just want to find someone from Immortal Palace."

"And after you find them?"

"Well, what plans did Behemoth Gate have for you to pay me a special visit like this?" Garen smiled without answering her directly and asked her another question instead.

When Lola heard the words ‘Behemoth Gate', her heart trembled slightly suddenly.

"The Marshall chief soldier perished and caused our Behemoth Gate to decline. Lola had no other choice but to come out and search for one that could support our Gate. Once I heard that Gate Master had left the mountain, I rushed over immediately."

She made a pitiful face.

"If Gate Master could promise to be my Gate's diplomatic Elder, then Lola… Lola would do anything you instructed…"

She lay on Garen's legs with her slim waist pushed back and her buttocks raised up high, exposing her beautiful, black silk covered long legs underneath her short dress.

This kind of naked seduction in the form of a beautiful woman with a kitten-like obedience was currently curled up on Garen's lap. Most men would not have been able to resist the temptation and would have granted her wishes right away.

"You've truly learned Black Orchid's tricks and tried to poison me when I wasn't paying attention." Garen's smile disappeared quickly before he patted Lola's buttocks gently.

The faint sweet scent in the carriage subsided completely before a gust of cold wind blew past them suddenly, before disappearing as soon as it came.

"Gate Master…" Lola's whole body shivered while she begged in a fragile voice. "Lola didn't do it on purpose…"

While she begged, her blood qi continued to flow throughout her body slowly, while a small crack appeared in the sword in her hand.

Clap!

Garen's hand slapped against her buttocks lightly again. A strong numb sensation could be felt this time, instantly causing the blood qi in Lola's entire body to shake furiously before scattering it completely.

Lola raised her head while a look of disbelief appeared in her eyes.

Within Immortal Palace and Behemoth Gate, other than Divine Master and the Demon Soldier Marshall, the strongest individuals were Young Divine Master and herself. The remaining Grandmasters of Combat were all ranked below them. Both of them were true experts with high aura condensation levels.

Her lack of prior preparation had probably resulted in her accidental capture, or perhaps it was a temporary oversight on her part. However, the blood qi in her whole body had been activated at once, and although she had secretly used a few Secret Methods to strengthen herself, she never anticipated that a single pat from her opponent would result in the complete scattering of all of her own blood qi, without him injuring himself at all.

The ability to use various Secret Methods to move and gather blood qi would only be able to scatter one's blood qi, despite the fact that her opponent was an expert that was stronger than her. This Secret Method would usually cause the user to suffer reverse blood qi damages, but this person was apparently able to scatter all of her condensed blood qi easily, without suffering any harm at all.

This ability… This strength could only be used under the circumstances that one completely understood the Secret Techniques and Secret Methods that they practiced, was clear about the flow of blood qi and possessed strength that was at least one level higher. However, it was still not as simple as what the man in front of her had just displayed.

Shock jolted through Lola's mind like waves that drifted in and out constantly.

She contemplated her current skills and realized that even if her master had still been alive, she would not have reached this far. Perhaps the Divine Master from Immortal Palace would be able to do it after he broke through…

Divine Master? Could it be that this person in front of her was actually…

The wheels of the carriage moved slowly while both of the people inside the car fell silent.

Garen smiled while looking at Lola who was leaning against him. He gently sniffed the sweet smell of hormones that were released from her body naturally while listening to the rhythmic chimes of the carriage bells, allowing his emotions to fall into an unprecedented state of calmness.

"I know where the Young Divine Master of Immortal Place is located!" whispered Lola suddenly.

A smile flashed in Garen's eyes suddenly.

*****************

Jessian held a short black blade in his hands and scrutinized it carefully.

"The technique is slightly stronger than the previous one but it has not achieved my desired standard yet." He flung the short blade away but it landed on the right side of the black platform slowly, as if it was supported by an invisible force.

One of his subordinates in black clothes came forward to store the short blade properly, before turning to leave.

Moon Star Gate Master kept watch beside him respectfully. Aside from the guards in the courtyard, the only other person there was an old man in black tight-fitting clothing who was waiting with his head lowered.

"We will definitely do everything in our power to find your desired blacksmith, so please wait a little longer," implored Moon Star Gate Master with his head bowed respectfully, much unlike the arrogant way he acted when he was in the provincial capital.

"I understand your difficulties and I know that this speed is considerably fast. Therefore, I don't mind waiting a few more days," nodded Young Divine Master Jessian faintly. "That's right, why did the remaining members of Southern Sky Gate leave? Do you discover the reason?"

"Yes, I found out that one of the remaining members of Southern Sky Gate planted himself as a spy within the city. He was probably hiding in a secluded place when they noticed one of our dispatched members…"

"I won't ask about the whole process. Can you assure me that the next ambush will not be leaked?"

"Yes! I will submit to your commands and put out the military orders at once!!" announced Moon Star Gate Master while clapping a hand against his chest.

"Then that will be all." Jessian turned to leave.

"That's right, Young Divine Master, recently at White Dew Mountain…" Moon Star Gate Master began to speak but stopped himself.

"Just say whatever you need to say. My subordinates have always spoken as they wished," said Jessian as he turned around and stood in place.

"The person who is pretending to be the White Cloud Gate Master over at White Dew Mountain is currently on his way over here, and might be charging towards you…"

"Charging towards me?" Slight changes finally appeared on Jessian's face. "Hehe, interesting. I won't go looking for him since he's already brave enough to come find me."

"He's suppressing White Dew Gate, and I'm afraid that he's not good news," Moon Star Gate Master reminded him frantically.

"It's better if he's an expert. Inform Nine Iron Gate and the other numerous, delighted factions and allow them to return with their teams."

"You mean that you want them to gather here on their own before capturing all of them with one go?" Moon Star Gate Master was a knowledgeable person and could ultimately guess Young Divine Master's intentions.

"It will be too troublesome to search everywhere. Wouldn't it be better to let them see a glimmer of hope on their own, gather them in one place, before reaping the wheat in one go once it has all ripened?" Jessian smiled gently. "Also, get your son to hurry up and settle the problems with that girl. If he dares to hinder my grand plans again…"

Moon Star Gate Master's face turned pale suddenly.

At the same time, Moon Star Gate Young Master who was waiting by the doorway turned pale as well, before he quickly sank to his knees on the ground with a ‘thump'.
