The Story Never Ends

Chapter 48 - Northern Sects Conference



Lilium City, today the city was decorated and looked very lively. Many strange carriages were passing through it. The carriages were built from very expensive materials and strange beasts were pulling them. Thus, it looked very imposing.

The constant flow of the carriages with sect members became a wonderful sight in the city.

Many ordinary people also came outside to watch the activity. Some people knew that this was a big gathering of all sects in the outer region.

Everyone was focusing on those imposing carriages but there was a common carriage slowly moving towards the city.

Indeed, this was the carriage of the Bone and Devil Sect. Sitting in the carriage, Davion looked outside the window and was surprised, "It looks like nobody's paying attention to us."

"We are the only ones in a normal carriage. So, it is natural." Isla said while looking at the direction of Sect Master. Seeing that he was not responding and just closing his eyes, she felt at ease.

"It is better not to talk about these things infront of the Sect Master," she thought.

Davion also thought so. So, he asked the things he wanted to know about the conference.

"Senior sister, do all the sects in the outer region take part in the conference?"

"There are 20 lower grade sects in the outer region. Among them, 18 sects take part in the conference. The other two sects do not really care about the conference." Isla replied.

"Oh, are they so powerful that they do not need to take part?" Davion got interested.

Hendrix who has been silent for a long time finally spoke, "It's not that they are powerful but they have a great relationship with all the sects. They are the Northern Alchemist Sect and the Northern Artifact Sect. They are the only sect having the heritage of pill manufacturing and artifact forging in the outer region."

"So, all other sects depend upon these two sects for pills and artifacts. This is the reason why they have a great influence and nobody wants to offend them."

"Since they are the only ones who can make them, every sect offers them spirit mines and rare materials of heaven and earth to forge artifacts and make pills for them. That's why they are rich and don't care about the resources obtained from the Conference. They are too lucky and here we have to fight for it," Isla sighed.

While they were talking, they heard loud noises coming behind them. When Davion looked through the window, he saw a flameape pulling a red carriage.

Thaddeus opened his eyes and said, "They have finally arrived."

"Who are they?" Davion looked confused.

"This is the carriage of the Flame Blossom Sect. They are a rank above us. We lost against them in the previous Conference." Hendrix looked very solemn.

"Does this mean they are our opponents?" Davion asked.

"You could say so," Isla said then continued.

"The higher-ranking sects cannot challenge the lower ranking sects. But we can challenge them."

"So, it means we have the right to challenge the Blood Saber Sect and get the first ranking?" Davion smiled.

"If this was that easy, we would not be here." Hendrix shook his head.

"The higher the sects rank, the stronger they get. The Blood Saber Sect has all participating disciples in the late stage of Qi refining. The only sect we can fight is the Flame Blossom Sect."

"They have two disciples in the middle stage of Qi refining. I beat one of them last time, but I didn't have much Qi remaining for the latter. So, we lost. This time I have improved a lot. But I still don't know whether I can handle them both."

But thinking about how Davion managed to kill those Silent Killers, he had some confidence in beating the flame blossom sect. But he didn't say these things aloud. He was still scared of Davion.

When the carriage of the Flame Blossom passed by their carriage, it suddenly stopped infront of them. Then they heard a burst of hearty laughter coming from the carriage.

"Haha, Thaddeus, you are inside this broken carriage? I could have missed you if I didn't spread my senses."

An old man with red hair and a red robe came out of it. He was the same old man who passed his disciple the spiritual artifact on the way.

"What do you want, Gideon?" Thaddeus also came out of the carriage.

"Haha, did you forget Thaddeus? The older generation always had a gathering before the Conference started. Or are you really scared that your disciples might get bullied here without you?"

Thaddeus looked back at the carriage and said, "We have an hour before the conference starts. You guys can do whatever you like now. But don't get late for the conference. I will be going to the gathering."

"We understand.." Everyone nodded.
