A Demon's Journey

Chapter 337 - The Dragon Tiger Palace's Shock



Azaroth gathered all the surrendered warriors and took them to the Origin Sect Branch. He was going to force these warriors to join his faction.

Their willpower was weak, but this issue could be resolved through special means.

He planned to have them meet Ralph. If Ralph could convince a few of them to switch their allegiances, then well and good. Otherwise, Azaroth would have to take drastic measures. He would have to involve their dear innocent families in this as well.

While this battle was occurring, the Dragon Tiger Palace received a message from the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch.

This message was from the Sect Master of the Origin Sect. He seemed to have written about how the Origin Sect would stand by their branch in Veninza City.

If the Dragon Tiger Palace acted against their branch in Veninza City, the Origin Sect would become bitter enemies with them.

Now, this kind of message was somewhat expected by the Dragon Tiger Palace.

However, the point was that the Dragon Tiger Palace had already sent their forces to extinguish that branch.

Right now, their warriors were probably on their way back to the Dragon Tiger Palace while singing victory songs.

They waited an hour. Two hours. And these two hours converted to three hours, but their warriors never returned.

A few board members were getting anxious. Their personal disciples had left for this battle, and they weren\'t returning or contacting them. They knew something strange was going on.

"Did the Main Branch send any experts to this branch?" When this question entered their heads, the Dragon Tiger Palace\'s higher-ups\' minds became jumbled.

"That must have been a trap then. The Experts from the Main Branch were waiting for our warriors to arrive, and they used their superior cultivation to deal with them all!" Another warrior spoke up.

This statement did nothing but add to the chaos.

"…Maybe we should have sent some elders with them. At least they could have escaped and informed us what had exactly occurred. Now, we are left with random thoughts," Another guy calmly spoke.

It seemed that he was going against that warrior from before.

"Random thoughts? Then explain how this Origin Sect Branch suddenly gets the courage to attack the warriors working under Dragon Tiger Palace?!" The individual immediately spoke up with an irritated tone.

No one could reply to his words. They were all suspicious of the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch.

"I tell you that this Origin Sect Branch has the back of the Main Branch. I don\'t know how or why, but the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch was looking for a way to deal with us," That individual continued to speak.

"A trap, huh? The Origin Sect concealed very deeply. They know that we can\'t go and ask the king to resolve this issue. If this matter reaches the King, then we would be considered wrong. Thus, we have to resolve this issue privately," The president spoke up.

The President knew that in this matter, the Dragon Tiger Palace had made the first offensive move. And even now, they had sent so many of their warriors to destroy the Origin Sect Branch here in Veninza City.

Even if they were dead, the King wasn\'t going to punish the Origin Sect Branch for this. They had been attacked. What were they supposed to do if not defend themselves?

It was the Dragon Tiger Palace\'s fault that they didn\'t consult the King earlier. Even if they received some light punishment, their warriors would be alive, and they would receive some compensation from the Origin Sect.

But the boat had sailed now. No idea in which direction.

"We need to investigate the Origin Sect Branch here. If they have captured our warriors, then we need to free them. Otherwise, our other warriors would be incredibly terrified of making a move against the Origin Sect Branch," A board member suggested.

"You are right. But how? Should we send a group of our strongest elders?" Another member suggested.

Judging by his tone, he didn\'t want to take any chances.

"What if they also don\'t return?" A member asked with a slightly anxious look.

Another member laughed out and asked, "Will they be able to handle our Dragon Squad and Tiger Squad?"

"Those two?!" A few members in this Hall were startled to hear those two squads.

The Dragon and Tiger Squad were formed of the strongest warriors of the Dragon Tiger Palace. And by that, it meant the strong 5 Star Warriors of the upper generation.

Each Squad numbered 50-60 members, and they were all experienced 5 Star Warriors. They were the true backing of the Dragon Tiger Palace.

The President remained silent for some moments. He felt that this conflict with the Origin Sect had escalated too suddenly.

And he felt that if he sent these two squads, he would be playing into the enemy\'s hands.

He couldn\'t stop because he felt that another more frightening plot was waiting for him if he did.

Thus, the only option he had was to keep moving forward.

Meanwhile, the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch received this information from their spies.

The Beast Taming Group sent by the Dragon Tiger Palace to the Origin Sect Branch hadn\'t returned.

It was as if they had vanished.

The Dragon Tiger Palace felt that this was done by the experts from the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch.

When the sect master and the elders heard these rumors, they were flabbergasted. They were being blamed for something they didn\'t even do.

The team they were planning to send to the Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City had yet to be finalized. And the Dragon Tiger Palace had already begun thinking that the Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City received support from their main branch.

However, the Sect Master or the Elder of the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch didn\'t blame the Dragon Tiger Palace for thinking in this direction.

One of their elite groups, the Beast Taming Group, had most likely been slaughtered like chicken. The only explanation for them would be that the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch sent their experts.

This assertion had no proof, so they couldn\'t come to the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch and demand justice.

The Origin Sect\'s Main Branch was going to deny any involvement with this issue. And this was the truth.

However, the Dragon Tiger Palace wasn\'t going to understand this.

The thing that surprised the Origin Sect\'s Sect Master more was that the warriors at the Origin Sect Branch in Veninza City had somehow managed to deal with the infamous Beast Taming Group of the Dragon Tiger Palace.

How did they accomplish it without receiving any support from the Origin Sect\'s Main Branch?

To get the answer to this question, the Origin Sect\'s Sect Master summoned Patrick.

During this time, Patrick had been performing some trials that gauged his combat power. Sect Master was planning to assign him as an Outer Sect Elder. However, a few elders objected that Patrick might have acquired the 5 Star Cultivation through the use of pellets or other forbidden techniques.

They meant that he was a paper tiger. Although his cultivation had reached the 5 Star Rank, he didn\'t possess the power to be considered an Elder.

Thus, the Sect Master thought it would be best if Patrick participated in the trials. He could shut up all the opposing voices through this method.

The Sect Master was paying special attention to this matter, so Hugo Corlett or his accomplices couldn\'t control the results of these trials.
