Chapter 1139: Branch Leader Returned (1/2)

While Sam is researching the seal and thinking of ways to break it, the next day Arkiv came with their target. The lackey of the second young master, who gives him the dirtiest ideas.

Sam came out once and just took a look at him and left the rest of the teammates. He already explained what they need to do, so Sam doesn't have to explain again.

Kiran started observing the behavior of this guy.

Meanwhile, Arkiv gave out the list of the businesses and other things the Second Branch along with the people that are assigned to different positions.

The extra help Sam hired would be used to deal with them.

”So, we only have six days. We need to speed up. Of course we need to speed up.”

”I know, but I think we don't have that long. In at most three days, the clean up process would be done in the first branch, the two branch leaders will go back to their respective branches and at that time it would be impossible to not suspect the first young master.

Particularly, with him being the last person to be at the furnace of the first branch and the current plan of ours also involves the same thing, his presence at the furnace. So, it would be hard to not draw any suspicion and as soon as the suspicion hits, we need to get away from this place. For the last branch we could just deal with them directly, even though that would take some time.”

Arkiv thought for a moment and nodded. When he was about to return, Sam suddenly said.

”I saw a few black cloaked men in the first branch. They are definitely not the members of the Puppet Organization, see if you can find anything related to them. After all, in this turmoil, I don't see any reason for the puppet organization to entertain any guests.”

”Okay, I will try. But I think we need to wait until the Branch leader visits.”

”He will visit.”

With that Arkiv was gone and Sam looked through the list he brought. He divided the list into six parts and one part to each prisoner.

”These are your targets. They are spread all over this realm and you have to deal with them. I don't care how you deal with them, but they shouldn't be able to fight. There is also another condition.

I want you guys to not deliberately hide away, at least while you are attacking. You don't have to deliberately reveal yourself, but don't deliberately hide while you are fighting.”

”Why do you want us to do that? Are you trying to use us as a bait?”

One of the prisoners asked.

”Yes, actually. But not particularly to divert their attention to you guys. But to divert their attention away from me. I will give you something to save yourself in a critical time.”

With that he took a bunch of things and gave them to the six prisoners.

”There is a mask that could disguise yourself. It is not the best out there, but it can still help you in fooling the people at the worm hole of the planet, just make sure that you encounter the higher level cultivators and not definitely the branch leaders.

If you can do that, you will be good.

And you don't have to destroy everything, destroy seventy-five percent and that would be enough.”

He sent them away. Five prisoners walked away while Markan still stayed and it is because, his targets are within this planet.

”I need you to occasionally come back here in the next three days while you are dealing with those people. I will crack the seal no matter what.”

He nodded and left.

Sam once again went back to research, his team is preparing for the inevitable clash with the second branch.

After all, the only reason, the first branch is easier is because their elders are all dead earlier.

So, now they need to be prepared.

While the team is preparing, Sam is feeling a bit frustrated while researching. No matter what he did, the seal is like a black hole devouring everything.

In fact, it didn't matter what kind of technique he used on the simulation, it just kept on devouring the set up he is making and it is close to the core, if something happens, Markan can completely lose his cultivation.

But no matter what he did, nothing is working.

He didn't give up though, he persisted and for the next two days, Markan came back at night after dealing as much damage as he could in different places of the planets.
