Chapter 44: Heavenly Demon Sect [2]

Lucas thought about it. If Thomas wasn't lying about the incident 100 years ago, then someone must have started the feud between the two great sects. Though he still doesn't know the ranking of powers in this realm, he is sure that someone with power would do this scheme.

"You are stupid."

Not just assuming it, Lucas noticed that cultivators tend to be cunning or power-hungry. Just as he somehow experienced a little bit of the true side of cultivators, Lucas knew that nature would still be in nature. Hence, human nature won't still be gone to cultivators.

"What are you talking about?" Jeric asked as he was feeling a bit agitated about Lucas's words.

"You didn't know? It's common for a fight between two parties that neither of them would benefit is someone's conspiracy. " Lucas merely said.

Jeric was stiffened after hearing this. It was true that the Flower Dark Sect wouldn't benefit from killing his son. And as he slowly took into account every word Lucas said, he gritted his teeth.

"This is made by the Su family! I knew it was suspicious that they were offering us their assistance."

Lucas raised his eyebrow after what he just heard.

'Su Family? Isn't Sora Su one of them?'

Lucas asked, "Who are these Su Family?"

"Su Family is one of the 5 Great Families in the continent and was based in the northern region. As they've been wanted to reign in the eastern side of the region, perhaps they wanted to take down our sect by making a war prepared for my sect and Flower Dark Sect."

'Now that I think about it, I met Sora Su in the eastern region. Perhaps it's just a coincidence or she was part of a branch since the people following her aren't that strong.'

Lucas crossed his arms and lifted Jeric's body to stand up.

"Forget about it. Just settle with the Flower Dark and look at that family's actions if they really are the ones who conspired this. Contain your anger. You have people following you. Don't think of them as an object, they are your subjects." Lucas said in a meaningful way as if he were a father teaching his son.

"Yes, Senior," Jeric uttered.

"It's Lucas. I don't have any family name in particular as I am a rogue cultivator."

Jeric widened his eyes in surprise.

"You are a rogue cultivator? You are not from the Flower Dark Sect?"

"I already said that I am not. Didn't you hear that I am rogue? So why would I be associated with them? After all, I was just resting above their lands unintentionally and just did them a favor for my unthoughtful manner."

Nothing but awe and admiration were what Jeric felt. How could this kind of person still exist?

'He is so righteous! There is no way he could have lived this long without being arrogant of power.'

Jeric didn't notice that he was spaced out for a moment while still looking at Lucas. And because of it, he snapped him back to reality by pushing his head.

"Don't look at me like that like I'm sort of a benevolent God. It's just a chance that I am different from you all." Lucas sneered and stared at the wall behind him.

"Look. Aren't you bothered that your techniques are all gone?" he asked.

It was also fortunate for Lucas that all of the techniques are highly graded. If not, he wouldn't even dare to be dismayed by the loss.

As Jeric finally realized it, he ran to the shelves and cried before the destroyed pieces of his books.

"No way! I haven't learned everything yet!"

Lucas just snorted, suppressing his laughter.

'Too bad. I won't tell you that I read all of it as it will be troublesome to write all of it,' he thought while keeping his laughter hidden.

Moments later, a few cultivators started to appear in front of the hallway. They were all panting and gasping for air, some of them had swords by their side.

"Master! Are you okay?!" They all asked and looked for Jeric.

However, when they all saw an unknown person wearing an outer court disciple robe before the damaged scene, they all pointed their swords at him. Well, Lucas intentionally returned it to its original appearance.

"What have you done here?! Where is Master?!"

Lucas raised his eyebrows in amusement as all of them had a domineering aura, but not enough to intimidate him.

He just scoffed, then peeked at each of their cultivation bases.

"5th level of the Master Spirit Realm, 3rd Level of the same stage as well as that guy with long hair. The peak of the Warrior Spirit Realm..." And so Lucas continued calling their cultivation bases, leaving them all speechless and agitated.

"How could you know our cultivation base?! A mere outer court disciple?!"

"No. You're a spy who is slandering our robe! Be prepared to die!"

When all of them were about to attack Lucas, who was just nonchalantly looking at them, a sudden pressure exuded from behind Lucas, emanating from Jeric.

"All of you stand down! There's nothing to be worried about!"

All of the cultivators stiffen as they wait to see their master. And as Jeric appeared before them, they all trembled in joy.

"You are alright, master!"

They all cheered, but when they realized that Lucas was still in front of them, they all tried to push him. But, alas, their efforts were useless as Jeric kicked the disciple who dared to push Lucas.

"You don't disrespect a senior. Remember the honor!" he roared into the cultivator.

"S-Senior?" Then they all looked at Lucas, and immediately clasped their hands and bowed.

Lucas just remained silent while smiling.

"Ha... It's too good to be a leader, huh."

The one who got thrown also clasped his hands as he stood up. All of them didn't question the authenticity of it as long as it came from their master's mouth, even if it was an evil god. For all of their care.

"Jeric, why don't we go to the Flower Dark Sect, right now?" Lucas asked, making the cultivators surprised, but they didn't bother to show their expressions.

"Please forgive me if I'll be frank. You might be a senior, but I still don't trust your words. Maybe if I go there, everything you said will turn out to be lies and I'll be dead without noticing it." Jeric respectfully said.

"But I can kill you right now if I want to. Why would I drag you there just to kill you."

Jeric was just speechless and just made a mouthful gulp.

"I'm just joking. If you are not satisfied, I will bring Thomas here for you to be complacent. He will listen to me, even if I don't try."

Jeric clasped his hands before Lucas and said, "Thank you for sparing my life, Senior Lucas."

Lucas just nodded, activating a reverse spell fueled by his third energy. As soon he activated it, everything went back to normal except for the burned books. As this spell was still weak since it's a time-reversal spell and also being weakened by the third energy's effects, only natural objects were brought back to normal, for example, a naturally built rock by nature.

When everyone saw it, they could just remain in awe, and even Jeric wasn't spared.

"Now. Enough with it. How about I go now? I'm done with here, right?" Lucas said, but before he could leave, Jeric interrupted him.

"Please Senior Lucas, have a day inside of our sect."

Lucas instinctively turned his face back to Jeric.

"For what reason?"

"I would like..." As bashful as it seems, Jeric just ignored it. "I want to learn from a person like you! I want to know how you remained youthful despite living a long life!"

Lucas was just dumbfounded by what he heard. Though he wasn't sure what to say, he just accepted it as there's nothing wrong with being friendly.

'I still feel bad being called a 'Senior' even though I am still ignorant of the cultivating norm.'

"Don't call me senior. Just Young Master is enough."

"Eh?"
