My Way

Chapter 1098 [High Priest of the Anwan Sea Clan - Ribote]

Not long ago.

After a brief exchange with Guan Xiangfei and Jiang Xing, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and after casually giving them a small gift, he...

Although Ling Wuyuan's goal on this trip must be to conceal his presence and traces through means such as arrays and barriers.

However, through the causal connection between them, Wu Yuan easily found the target's trace in a trench about 23 million kilometers away from the coastline.

Ultimately, it all started back then.

The other party almost killed him.

This results in a causal link between the two parties that is undeniably close in every respect, and is by no means ordinary...

To put it bluntly.

Let alone the fact that they are at the same level.

Even if Ling Wuyuan is one or two realms weaker than the opponent.

In fact, he could easily lock onto the other party...

now.

In order to announce its arrival.

When Ling Wuyuan was searching for the other party, he made no attempt to conceal his identity.

All of a sudden.

Facing that undisguised gaze.

As a high-level cultivator, the sea race cultivator whose strength had reached the [Heart Domain Realm] immediately opened his eyes, looking at Ling Wuyuan's location with surprise and vigilance.

A powerful human?

this moment.

His first thought was, "This is a test!"

after all.

Since he led his people to migrate here, similar tests have occurred many times before.

It felt like having flies buzzing around you.

To avoid such interference.

He even chose to set up a protective array around himself that connected the surrounding earth veins and sea veins, thus keeping out all kinds of interference.

Therefore, facing this long-awaited, or rather, overly blatant, gaze today, he was both wary and somewhat bewildered.

They were wary that the other party could use special means to forcibly break through their array barrier and see their figure.

They were dumbfounded by the fact that the other party was so brazen.

Dude, is this still spying?

This is the same as breaking into someone's house with a searchlight.

For a while.

He also didn't quite understand what the other party wanted to do.

According to the tacit understanding between him and the native powerhouses of this continent, unless absolutely necessary, there should be no possibility of them directly engaging in a major battle.

Yes.

Mutual understanding.

The native powerhouses of this continent hoped to use these marine aliens to train their troops and cultivate the next generation, and were not keen on fighting to the death with an aging [Heart Realm] expert.

The logic is simple: those who choose to stay in such remote areas of the "Heart Realm" are either old and unwilling to venture out and risk their lives in the martial world, or they have exhausted their potential and have little room for growth. They are unlikely to be the kind of new generation who still have the drive to fight to the bitter end.

Expecting someone who prefers a peaceful retirement to risking their life to directly engage in a desperate struggle with an unknown alien powerhouse before things escalate to a certain level... frankly, that's highly unlikely. Of course, that's true...

They still can't just do nothing.

The arrogance of the strong and the status of the rulers do not allow them to completely feign death.

The necessary warnings and corresponding arrangements should definitely be made.

therefore.

They deliberately allowed the [Golden Mist Continent's Alliance Against the Ocean's Alien Races] to create that coastal defense line that stretched for an unknown distance, in order to express a certain attitude.

As long as the sea creature forces do not cross the coastline defense line that symbolizes the red line, they will not launch a general offensive directly.

As a foreign race that came from afar.

The sea tribes, who call themselves the "Anwan Sea Tribes," are refugees, so they have no reason to fight to the death with their local rivals before they have had a chance to recover and rebuild their lives.

and so.

As the High Priest of the Anwan Sea Clan, Ribot decisively arranged for his people to periodically engage in attrition warfare with the coastal defense forces, attempting to buy time and slowly recover their strength...

It's best to wait until the next generation of newborns has grown up and resources have accumulated to a certain extent.

By then, even if the Anwan Sea Clan is still no match for the local forces, with a new generation growing up and abundant resources, they will be able to retreat more easily and continue searching for suitable places to live, instead of becoming refugees who go hungry one day and have enough to eat the next...

In short.

Although the invasion of the Anwan Sea Clan did bring a great deal of pain to the coastal areas of the Jinlan Continent, causing countless people to be displaced and die on the spot, both the local strongmen and the Anwan Sea Clan, as the invaders, felt that the losses were still within an acceptable range.

In a world where every living being on this entire continent could suddenly and instantly die an unnatural death.

This is the problem at hand.

It really doesn't matter...

Tens of thousands of years ago, an even larger disaster occurred on the [Golden Mist Continent].

In the past ten years or so, there have only been two things that the Anwan aquatic people found somewhat unacceptable.

One:

More than ten years ago, an unknown woman suddenly appeared, claiming to be a member of the Snow Moon Cloud Pavilion. After introducing herself, she didn't say a word more and directly beat Ribot, the High Priest of Anwan Sea Clan, severely in public. This caused Ribot, who was already injured, to suffer even more severe injuries. It wasn't until the last two years that he finally recovered.

This is something that is really hard for Ribot and Anwan Sea Clan to accept.

It's like someone barging into the capital's palace and beating up the emperor of a country.

This is truly a utter disgrace!

No matter how they thought about it, it fueled their anger...

two:
Some time ago.

Inexplicably, while Ribot was out searching for ingredients for alchemy, a powerful figure suddenly appeared in the surrounding area. After killing a large number of Anwan Sea Clan members and wreaking havoc on their territory, the figure simply left without a trace. This incident enraged Ribot upon his return...

They immediately began a thorough investigation across various regions, declaring that they were determined to find the traitors and spies!
After all, this would happen if there were no traitors or spies leaking information.

How could the other party have known that he was not at home at the time, thus causing such a huge loss to the entire clan?

It can't be because the other party was lucky, right?

He doesn't believe it! !

...It can only be said that while some people are indeed lucky, it's hard to say who exactly is lucky.

At that time, he wasn't home.

If he were really at home and had chosen to try to stop Ling Wuyuan, Ling Wuyuan probably wouldn't have needed to make another trip today...
