Once Human, Now a Parasite

Chapter 382



Chapter 382

After conversing with Jian Si for a while, Arthur came to know of the whereabouts of the princess . As he expected, she was abducted by Vyncent’s sect, the Golden Earth Sect . They were once a powerful sect but after a fallout with several other sect, they were half-destroyed, dropping to a second-grade power .

They still had powerful individuals but it shouldn’t be hard for Arthur to retrieve the girl, who’s still alive, fortunately .

The reason several sects ganged up against the Golden Earth Sect is due to its sinister techniques . They require young females, virgins especially, which are sacrificed in some kind of a ritual to strengthen the disciples there . They require an astronomical amount of females so they began hoarding mortal cities and towns, abducting every female . This angered the local powers which forced it to submission .

Right now, the sect secretly sends its disciples to kidnap a few females, any exposure is met with death sentence . No matter the cost, they must not let anyone know of their mission . This explains why Vyncent and his comrades were especially careful .

Speaking of that young man, Arthur was wondering if he’s still alive . He’s one sly bastard, however, he had to admit that he’s an interesting fellow . Last time, he didn’t hesitate to turn tail and flee when he saw him .

Since Arthur was busy fighting an elder from the Golden Earth Sect, he couldn’t chase after the swift young man .

Vyncent knew when to act and when to be obedient, he only believes in survival and has no loyalty whatsoever .

Furthermore, his special technique is fascinating, to say the least . It allowed him to melt into the ground and travel with insane speed, it even left Arthur in awe .

Syth was still missing and even Cold Sword couldn’t locate him, however, his little sister is a servant in the Golden Earth Sect . Servants are literally slaves which follow every order of the disciples . Not only are they forced to do rough labor work, they are forced to satisfy the sexual desires of any of the disciples .

Lisa must have been living miserably ever since she was abducted . Fortunately, she was considered one of the defects so she wasn’t sacrificed in the ritual .

"So, why didn’t you go retrieve her?"

Arthur coldly stared at Jian Si while expecting an answer . Compared to the Golden Earth Sect, the Mountain Ba Sword sect is a behemoth, even if she were to go knocking at their door and cause trouble, they wouldn’t dare attack her or be discourteous .

"The Golden Earth is located far South of the Green-Leaf World, precisely inside of the dangerous zones . Unless you know that place like the back of your hand, you won’t be able to enter . "

Arthur remained silent as he pondered about what to do . There’s a bit more than two months before Makaze is repaired, or so was the limit as per the conditions of the Fate contract .

Although it’s not a powerful sect, there’s bound to be a God Monarch or two inside the sect and that’s while disregarding the Sovereigns .

If he had Makaze, he would be confident in annihilating it, unfortunately, he doesn’t . Moreover, Lucy is training so she can’t accompany him .

Nonetheless, Arthur still decided to go . If he wanted to escape, none could stop him . Plus, he had Rizaki and the Heavenly Arrows, which can cause absolute destruction .

He was strong against large masses, especially with his racial abilities, which allowed him to fool the enemy .

Cold Sword noticed Arthur’s silence, she frowned and said

"Don’t tell me you plan to go?"

Without turning to look at her, Arthur replied

"I may not be a good person but I can keep a promise, at least . "

He truly considered the deceased Human Emperor his friend . He once promised him that he’ll take care of his children if something were to happen .

Not only were they kidnapped, Lisa is surely suffering in that sect right now . The ARK showed him that he had 75% chance of retrieving Lisa and leaving alive .

The ARK’s calculations took into account all his abilities stats and the speculated cultivation of his enemies .

"I will come with you . "

Seeing her showing a resolute look, Arthur shook his head and mocked

"So now you want to go? I don’t need you . "

Truthfully, seeing her character, Arthur thought that she’ll diligently look for the two missing people . However, seeing the results, he was really disappointed .

It seems Jian Si only focused on cultivating and only spared a bit of effort to inquire about Lisa and Syth .

"I-it’s not like I could barge in and immediately locate the sect . You have to understand that not everyone is like you . "

The girl wanted to argue with him only to receive a retort that made her shut her mouth for good .

"Still, with your sect’s power . It wouldn’t be that hard to enter that zone and locate the sect . "

What he said was absolutely true . Cold Sword was never a person who relies on her sect’s influence so she never considered such an option, which left her momentarily speechless .

Before she could talk again, Arthur had already disappeared, leaving her alone .

After a long while, the girl snorted and mumbled

"Hmpf! Syth or whatever... It’s just a kid! I’ll find him!"

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

At first, Arthur wanted to use Athard’s anger and rage to trick him into thinking that he belongs to the Golden Earth Sect . However, seeing how far the sect is, the Patriarch won’t dispatch a lot of people to track him .

Athard was by no means hot-headed, if he were, he would have attacked him the moment he knew he was the culprit . His patience and quietness were surprising and a bit worrying . He was surely plotting something but since Arthur disappeared from his sect, he could only try to locate him .

The distance between the Imperial Capital and the Golden Earth Sect is quite big . Even with Arthur’s speed, it’ll take him some time to arrive .

As he was in a bit of a hurry, Arthur avoided flying in the air and transformed into a bolt of lightning which flew in a straight line a few centimeters above ground .

This yellow bolt of lightning had a speed that made practically unnoticeable . He bypassed a lot of traveling cultivators but they never caught wind of him or heard anything .

If he took the speedy Red Spirit Boat in his possession, it would have taken him eight to nine days to arrive . Since Arthur decided to rely on his absolute speed and his special skill which doubled his agility when he’s a bolt of lightning, he arrived in only two days .

However, that’s only because he used [Griffin’s Bloody Switch], temporarily converting all of his Strength into Agility .

The dangerous zone that’s situated at the South of the Green-Leaf World is called Red Seismic Volcano . It’s the lair of a powerful Snake that lived for thousands of years .

Few dare to trespass into its territory, as for the Golden Earth Sect, it was ignored by the snake, for some unknown reason .

Arthur stared at the humongous mountain which had black smoke coming from a large hole in its peak . It has been a long time since this volcano erupted, however, last time it did, the damage it did, it caused a fierce earthquake that damaged the whole world .

The mountain spanned for a few kilometers and the more you climbed, the higher the temperature . Moreover, Arthur noticed the presence of various monsters that are Fire-oriented . They were dangerous to normal cultivators, especially the few God Beasts that are silently lurking in some cave or underground .

Even when he spread his senses in all directions, Arthur was unable to locate the hidden sect . For that reason, he hid inside a strange marked tree and patiently waited .

This tree is like a sign and since he doesn’t know how to enter the sect, he’ll find someone who does .

Fortunately, the wait wasn’t long at all, a silhouette appeared from the horizon, running straight at the mountain . As he possessed the tree, which has no eyes, Arthur wasn’t able to see this person, however, his Sixth Sense allowed him to immediately guess the person’s identity .

Although he was handsome, his current state was strange . He looked rugged, dirt-covered his clothes and he even reeked of blood .

This young man was none other than Vyncent .

’It is truly a small world . ’

Arthur chuckled as he left the tree and gazed at this familiar face, who turned green then white from fear and surprise . Never did Vyncent think Arthur would suddenly pop in front of him like this .

Of course, he never doubted that he’ll come back and raid his sect, however, he never thought it’ll be like this, right now .

"S-senior . "

The young man stuttered as he tried his best to greet Arthur with a friendly smile . His expression was ugly to behold, his smile was forced and looked creepy rather than friendly .

"We meet again, Vyncent . "

The young man chuckled and kept a polite attitude as he asked

"W-what brings senior h,here?"

Arthur stared back at the young man, trying to read his expression . He could hear Vyncent’s accelerating heartbeat . He was nervous and afraid . He hadn’t heard anything from Arthur for five years and despite knowing that, some day, he’ll become back, he didn’t expect it to be so soon .

Fortunately, he had long since prepared himself and swore to never anger or provoke this dangerous man before him .

"Obviously because I’m searching for a certain someone . "

As if expecting to hear that, Vyncent said:

"Y-yes yes! I know who you’re looking for . "

Arthur furrowed his brows when he heard that . Last time he asked, Vyncent said that he didn’t know who or where Lisa was .

"Don’t get me wrong, Senior! The girl you’re looking for was indeed abducted by my sect but I only discovered her after returning . "

"So she’s safe?"

Vyncent continuously nodded his head and truthfully answered

"Yes! She’s safe and sound . I’ve taken her as my personal servant and she wasn’t the least bit hurt . "
