Chapter 237
"Adam is still alive, and he has returned to rendezvous with the Innate Dao Body." He stated this calmly, as if recounting an ordinary matter.
Below him, the clan members widened their eyes, absolute fury igniting within their gazes.
If it weren’t for Adam, their clan would have boasted dual peerless geniuses in a single generation, enjoying unparalleled glory.
But because of Adam, the Double-Pupil Holy Body had perished, and the Dao Body Holy Fetus’s invincible Dao Heart had been flawed.
"Clan Head, where is that bastard?! Let me go chop him into minced meat and feed him to the dogs!"
"I’ll go too! Our Nova Clan has never suffered such humiliation!"
"If this wretch isn’t killed, the hatred in my heart will never be quelled!"
The higher-ups were all filled with righteous indignation.
"We don’t know his exact location yet," Damion shook his head.
"However, since he has shown himself, he is in the Mysterious Yellow Great World, we will definitely find him." His aura was horrifyingly cold, in his eyes, Adam was practically already a dead man.
"Elian, you will lead a team, take an Alpha-Class Guard Squad and descend to the Mysterious Yellow Great World to hunt down Adam, simultaneously, search for the Innate Dao Body!"
"Yes, Clan Head!" An elder stepped forward, he had a flat, unexpressive face and graying hair at his temples.
This was Elian, an Eighth Heaven Deity, the same elder who had severely injured Adam in the Deity Secret Realm.
The others looked at Elian with a mix of envy and shock.
Envious because this was guaranteed major merit, handed straight to Elian, shocked because the Clan Head was deploying an Alpha-Class Guard Squad.
These were the ultimate trump-card guards of the Nova Clan.
It was said there were only ten such squads in existence, each consisting of merely five members, although their numbers were small, their strength was absolutely terrifying.
To qualify for an Alpha-Class Guard Squad, one’s minimum strength had to be at the Sixth Heaven of the Deity Realm, and every Squad Captain was at least a Seventh Heaven Deity.
They had to pass grueling assessments to become the core backbone of the Nova Clan, every single one was an elite capable of fighting multiple enemies simultaneously.
One Eighth Heaven Deity, one Seventh Heaven Deity, and four Sixth Heaven Deities.
Perhaps in the eyes of a Saint, they weren’t worth mentioning, but their target was a person at the Second Heaven.
This lineup was excessively luxurious, or rather, utterly absurd.
...
The Demon Race’s Eastern Advancement Army Camp.
"Commander, the intelligence has been disseminated, the Nova Clan should take action very soon."
"Following your orders, to prevent suspicion, we haven’t revealed the exact location yet, we are waiting for the perfect opportunity." The blood-red robed Demon cultivator said respectfully.
"Good, where are Adam and his companion now?" The crested man nodded.
"Yesterday, they left the region and headed toward the Central Continent, but today, they changed direction and seem to be heading toward the Southern Region."
"Why is that?" The crested man frowned.
"I suspect they are worried about being tracked, so they are moving erratically to shake off pursuit," the robed man explained.
"Hehe! A futile dying struggle!" The crested man sneered, he had paid a massive price this time, preparing to deploy a Demon at the Ninth Heaven of the Deity Realm, he swore to skin Adam alive and capture the Innate Dao Body.
...
The Eastern Continent Coastline.
The Eastern Continent bordered the sea and possessed an incredibly long coastline, unfortunately, the Vast Azure Region was located far inland, deep within the continent.
Flying that distance manually would likely take a whole month, not only exhausting, but it also wasted too much time, manual flight was generally only suited for short distances.
Therefore, after disguising themselves, Adam and Cecilia prepared to take a cross-region ferry.
By ferry, they could comfortably arrive at a coastal dynasty, the speed wasn’t slow either, as these ferries were specifically established for cultivators traveling long distances.
The journey would still take roughly a month.
"Young Master, there is only one private cabin left on the Elegant Brows Ferry, do you want it or not?"
At the ticket counter, a dark, scrawny-looking young man stood with a sallow-faced servant girl, the young man looked incredibly conflicted.
Only one room? Why is this trope so familiar?
"I’ll take it!" He didn’t overthink it, just sharing a room, he was already used to it.
"That will be one hundred top-tier spirit stones, if you want convenience, you can buy your transfer ticket here as well, that includes a ten-stone processing fee, making it one hundred and twenty." The female cultivator at the counter droned with an expression that said she was entirely done with life.
"Two hundred and twenty, here you go." The young man pulled out the spirit stones.
"Keep your tickets safe, the ferry departs at noon tomorrow, don’t be late, infuse them with spiritual energy to board, same goes for the transfer." She handed over two jade tokens.
The young man took them, handed one to the servant girl, and left.
The master and servant strolled down the bustling streets, looking left and right, occasionally buying snacks, they looked exactly like ordinary travelers.
These two were naturally none other than Adam and Cecilia.
After traveling for an entire week, they had finally caught the last ferry heading to a coastal dynasty for the near future.
"Young Master, are you really going to do that?" the dark, scrawny servant girl asked softly.
The young man nodded. "Of course. After we board tomorrow, remember to cover for me!"
...
The Spirit-Forsaken Land.
"When do you guys think the Vice Chief will come back?" Ava sat on the very tree branch where they had first encountered Adam, asking her three little companions.
"Don’t know!"
"No idea!"
"Not a clue!" The three shook their heads in perfect sync.
"Sigh, asking you guys is completely useless!" Ava sighed, it had been several days, yet these guys weren’t worried in the slightest.
