CHAPTER 1995: CHAPTER 1995: WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO COMPETE WITH ME?

"A young woman and two men, identities unknown. The one who acted is a young woman with formidable strength, probably already at the peak of a Heavenly Immortal..."

Carson Flores did not reveal his identity, so the white-haired elder did not know the identities of Carson and his companions.

Cedric James asked, "What about the others?"

The white-haired elder said bitterly, "I only managed to tear open a tiny gap amidst the overwhelming Sword Qi by self-destructing my magical treasure to escape. The others, all with Golden Immortal strength, are likely all dead."

Karter Hartman’s expression slightly changed, "If they were captured by the other side, doesn’t that mean we’ve also been exposed?"

Cedric James was about to speak when a beam of light flew in from the mountain gate direction, landing in front of Karter Hartman.

Karter Hartman scanned the communication talisman with his Divine Sense, his expression changed slightly, "Carson Flores from the White Crane Immortal Sect is at the mountain gate, and there are two women with him... Are they who you encountered?"

Cedric James’ expression slightly changed, "It seems this place has indeed been exposed. However, they are quite bold to dare come alone, clearly not taking us seriously. Hartman, let them in, seal the Great Formation, and don’t let any of them escape!"

Karter Hartman cupped his hands, "Yes, sir!"

Karter Hartman vanished in a flash, going to arrange the sealing of the Great Formation. Cedric James turned to order, "Go invite the few from Green Cloudy Valley. Since we have guests, and they’ve accepted our payment, they must do this job properly."

"Yes!"

At the mountain gate, Carson Flores and his two companions were welcomed into the sect.

Carson Flores glanced around and chuckled, "I thought I would be turned away, wasted a lot of thought on how to break through the Mountain Protection Array."

Selah Ellison Venerable One said calmly, "They’re luring you into a trap, like catching a turtle in a jar!"

Carson Flores snorted coldly, "I think they’ll be quite surprised by our expressions later."

They hadn’t walked far when the Great Formation of the mountain gate activated, sealing off their exit. At the same time, Cedric James appeared in the air ahead with a large group, coldly eyeing Carson as if watching a lamb walk into a wolf’s den.

Carson Flores’ gaze fell on the blue-clad Cedric James, examining him for a moment, "Blue Clothed Blood Envoy Cedric James?"

Cedric James responded arrogantly, "Carson, I heard you’ve already joined the Celestial Palace. Why not stay there instead of coming back to seek your death?"

Carson Flores laughed coldly, "Your Heavenly Alliance was so poorly defeated at The Great Desolate Ancient Battlefield, with many high-ranking members captured. Aydin Hatfield had to hide with the others in the Heavenly Demon Continent, dodging and hiding, not daring to show their faces. I’m really curious, even at this time, a mere Blood Envoy like you dares to commit crimes brazenly. You have quite some nerve."

Cedric James laughed, "Our Heavenly Alliance is backed by the Three Saints Sect of the God Immortal Domain. Even if Nico Weaver had a small victory, it’s only temporary. Once the reinforcements from the Three Saints Sect arrive, all obstacles will be crushed. If Nico Weaver doesn’t run, he’ll be dead meat. What have I to fear?"

Carson Flores swept his gaze over the people beside Cedric James, "Are all the members of the Heavenly Alliance from Skyland Continent here?"

Cedric James squinted slightly, "What if they are, what if they aren’t?"

Carson Flores nodded, "If they’re here, we can settle this all at once without me having to run around. After all, I’m quite busy."

Cedric James laughed heartily, "I know you have some skills. If we were outside, capturing you might be difficult. But since you’ve walked in here seeking death, it’s all the easier for us!"

Cedric James eyed Carson with an evil gleam, "The Red-robed Blood Envoy hates you deeply. I’ll be careful to keep you alive and hand you over to her. I’m sure it’ll be an excellent gift!"

Carson Flores laughed, "Alright then, let’s see who laughs last!"

Cedric James roared with laughter, "Even though you’ve just broken through to Golden Immortal, even if you were a Heavenly Immortal, what’s the use? I have plenty of Peak Heavenly Immortals here. What do you have to fight me with... Attack!"

As Cedric James gave the order, several magical treasures suddenly flew up, rushing towards Carson and his companions.

The attackers weren’t Cedric James or those by his side, but several people in green robes and masks.

They had long been lying in waiting in different locations, waiting for Carson and his companions to fall into their ambush circle. Now, they suddenly launched their attack, like venomous snakes darting out from the grass, malicious and deadly.

Black Thorn gleamed dark blue, like a shadow; the Black Flying Sword darted swiftly, emitting a soul-stirring, shrill wail; transparent flying needles, invisible and traceless...

The power of these magical treasures was not only strong, but they were accompanied by various eerie qualities, making them hard to detect and resist.

Unfortunately, before these magical treasures could approach, they were blocked by an invisible, terrifying field in the air.

They seemed to stab into an invisible shield; the further they pressed, the greater the resistance.

Selah Ellison Venerable One turned towards the attackers from behind, looking at the familiar green robes and masks, her gaze became subtly complex.

"To encounter you here of all places, you really are everywhere and dare to take any money!"
