Chapter 1135: A Deal With The Devil (2/2)

He knew that he didn't possess much of a talent for the soul path, so he had reserved the remaining one as a treasure that he would take upon reaching the Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage. However, thousands of years passed, and he was still unable to enter the High-Level Supreme Soul Stage, much less the Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage.

He knew about the Undaunted Purple Lotus Flower's significance towards Soul Forging Cultivators. However, he didn't have the necessary pill recipe or the alchemical prowess to concoct the pill that would allow him to enter the King Soul Stage. If he had used the Undaunted Purple Lotus Flower in its raw form, he knew that he could've only reached the Peak-Level Supreme Soul Stage.

That was why he was able to take it out. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought the Undaunted Purple Lotus Flower as a negotiation chip.

'A man who knows how to sacrifice at the right opportunity will obtain what he wants...' He consoled himself as he spoke.

”Poison Lord, I want your help with killing the Alstreim Family's Ancestor, Dian Alstreim.”

”Mhm? Dian Alstreim? That's right! I heard that you lost two times against the Alstreim Family, eh? You're miserable, Elizar! Hahahaha!” The Poison Lord pointed at him and laughed.

Ancestor Elizar Yantra inwardly raged, but once he saw the blood on that steel-blade, he calmed down as he realized that he was dealing with the Poison Lord, not some similar powerhouse whom he can offend just because the other party went too far.

”Then? What do you mean that you want to kill? You know that the Undaunted Purple Lotus Flower doesn't compare to Dian Alstreim's life that is protected by countless righteous sects. If I kill him for no apparent reason, the Astral Light Sect, the Heaven Mandate Temple, and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace will not stay quiet, not to mention that a Nine Western Territories that you're also a part of will send a punitive force that would cause my power a headache.”

”Elizar...” The Poison Lord's smile suddenly widened, ”Are you testing my patience?”

Ancestor Elizar Yantra's lips quivered, ”It isn't my intent, Poison Lord. What I wanted to say is that you can help me kill Dian Alstreim when he comes to attack my Flowing Mist Sect under the name of justice. Poison Lord can just weaken him, and I'll take care of the rest.”

The Poison Lord blinked before he laughingly stood up as he laughed, ”Hahaha!”

”So that's what it was!” The Poison Lord placed his palm on Ancestor Elizar Yantra's shoulder, ”You should've said it so in the first place. However, there's no need to go by myself. I'll send Devil Bane to your Flowing Mist Territory and call him if that Dian Alstreim comes knocking on your door. He alone should be enough to help you kill him.”

”What do you say, Elizar?”

Looking at that poisonous smile, Ancestor Elizar Yantra's cheeks trembled, trying not to reveal a wry smile. He originally wanted the Poison Lord to kill Dian Alstreim, but it looks like in the Poison Lord's perspective, the Undaunted Purple Lotus Flower wasn't much.

”Yes, Poison Lord. I'm extremely satisfied with this arrangement.”

”Hahaha! Good!” The Poison Lord turned around, his back facing Ancestor Elizar Yantra, ”Oh, that's right! I almost forgot! What was that beauty's name again? Ah! Jue Yantra! I heard that she was one of your extremely beautiful daughters, has no talent, and still a virgin? Bring her to me upon the death of Dian Alstreim.”

The Poison Lord turned around and smiled, ”I won't treat her bad, okay~?”

Ancestor Elizar Yantra's expression trembled! How could he hand over his beautiful daughter just like that!?

'Courting death!' He screamed in his mind.

”After all, you've caused three of my maids to die. Don't you think that you should compensate, Elizar?”

Ancestor Elizar Yantra became taken aback, his expression twisting. In a few seconds, he couldn't help but feel the pressure become too much to handle that he caved in without even saying a word of rejection.

”Yes...”

He had made a deal with the devil, and if found out, no righteous sect would help him. There was no going back. For the same reason, he didn't ask for Ancestor Hiden Gilmore and Ancestor Larzen Metaxas's help. He knew that they would screw him over instead as he was aware of the resentment that they held against him and the Yantra Family.

The Poison Lord Villa was a dark organization, the opposite of righteous powers, but it was far stronger than the entire Nine Western Territories combined. The Poison Lord was not someone he or anyone in the Nine Western Territories can hope to offend!

”Alright, you can leave.” The Poison Lord waved his hand and stretched his body, yawning as if he was tired.

”Yes!”

Ancestor Elizar Yantra turned around and left. He exited the grand tower and flew above the skies, his figure turning into a blurry haze that blocked all features. However, a clear gleam of hatred erupted from his eyes.

”Dian Alstreim, you bastard! Just come, I'll kill you as soon as you step into my Flowing Mist Sect!”
