Novel Full Chapter 426 Capture
The master and disciple duo put these thoughts to the back of their mind and began talking about something else.
“Master, I understand what I did wrong. I should’ve used my full strength from the beginning, but why is it so wrong of me to approach the Battle Maiden Sect’s Outer Court? I know you mentioned that we shouldn’t approach their territory carelessly, but isn’t the Outer Court just full of weaklings? We can be considered a demonic or Unorthodox Sect, so why do we have to care about the rules of those goody-two-shoes?” The young man asked, only to receive another slap to the back of the head.
Ouch!
“Idiot! I don’t care if you go around slaughtering low-level cultivators from the other Sects, but the Battle Maiden Sect is a different story. Unlike some of the other Sects who don’t care too much about their lower-level cultivators and will accept just about anyone, the Battle Maiden Sect is different. While the requirements to enter aren’t exactly all that high, they are still high enough that only some of the strongest females on the Continent can even think about joining. However, that’s not what separates them apart from the other Sects. What truly sets them apart is the only people who are capable of staying in the Sect are a bunch of fucking maniacs!”
“Those… those savages in the shapes of beautiful young women only care about training and strength! However, they also love their Sect and its disciples more than anything. Should one of the higher-ups find out that you caused the death of a talented young disciple, they wouldn’t hesitate to find our location and slaughter you. Those people are known for being quite overbearing when it comes to their own. That’s why nobody wants to mess with them. You’re lucky that girl is only an Outer Court Disciple and new to the Sect. If her status was a bit higher…”
The old man didn’t need to go on as his disciple understood the point he was getting at. If the girl he wanted to kill had a bit higher status or was more famous throughout the Sect, he might’ve had a mob of psycho bitches who’d love nothing more than to chop him up into little pieces.
“As I said, Zander, you can do whatever you want. You can slaughter men, women, and children alike. I don’t care. However, messing with the Battle Maiden Sect is definitely a bad idea, and you should avoid doing so at all costs. You might unintentionally cause the downfall of our Sect should you cause too much trouble or kill someone you shouldn’t have killed. If it was a girl from any other Sect, I wouldn’t have cared so much since we aren’t so weak that we need to bow down to those big Sects.”
Zander, the young man, was inwardly cursing out his master at how cowardly he was.
They are just a bunch of women. How strong can they be? Our Sect, although not as renowned as the Orthodox Sects, isn’t much weaker than any one of them. Why is his master so scared of them?
The old man could tell what Zander was thinking based on his expression and felt like beating him to a pulp, but he refrained from doing so. Since his disciple didn’t believe him, there was nothing he could do.
He’ll just have to experience it for himself.
The Battle Maiden Sect’s roots are deep, and its foundation is strong. Truthfully, out of all the major Sects on the Western Continent, no, maybe even the world, the Battle Maiden Sect is one of the most terrifying.
Although many of the Sects on the Central Continent are technically stronger than the Battle Maiden Sect, that’s only when it comes to the number of high-level cultivators. For example, those Sects on the Central Continent have more Divine Sea and Ascension Realm cultivators than those on the Western Continent.
Hell, they might not even have Ascension Realm cultivators on the Western Continent!
That being said, in terms of unity, the Battle Maiden Sect might be number one in the entire world. Despite how they act and train their disciples, those in the Battle Maiden Sect all consider each other sisters and would die for one another.
That level of unity amongst so many people is not normal and is the main reason nobody fucks with them.
However, Zander wouldn’t know such a thing as he’s never experienced the true terrifying might of this unity.
“Sigh… Anyways, enough about that! For wasting my time and resources, you are going to be stuck with me for the next year, training! I need to get it through your thick skull to always use your full strength when hunting down an opponent, especially one from that Sect! Until I see you have understood my teachings, you are not taking a single step outside the Sect!”
Zander wanted to complain, but seeing the expression on his master’s face, he knew this wasn’t up for negotiation.
***
Unfortunately, after a month and a half, the amount of hate and fear Zander had towards Mira grew to unstable levels.
Forget about teaching him anything. The old man would be lucky if Zander could even understand what he was saying.
Seeing his disciple like this, he knew he needed to do something.
He would love to go there and deal with Mira himself, but he didn’t wish to die just yet. Even if Mira didn’t have the backing of a supreme expert and was only part of the Battle Maiden Sect, he still didn’t want to go into that den of wolves.
The Sect Master and other elders of the Battle Maiden Sect would definitely sense his existence if he came strolling into their territory in his main body.
No, even if he didn’t come in his main body, it would be hard for him to escape their detection. He knew that the Battle Maiden Sect wasn’t as simple as it appeared on the surface. There have been many people throughout history who have ‘gone missing’ after trying to sneak in there.
The only thing he could think of doing right now was to send some disciples who didn’t have many connections with the Sect to retrieve Mira and bring her to him.
He needed Zander to be able to kill her if he ever wanted to get rid of his heart demon.
So, he found a team of five inconspicuous disciples, 1 Stage 2 Nascent Soul Realm, 1 Stage 1 Nascent Soul Realm, and 3 Stage 9 Core Formation Realm cultivators, to go capture Mira.
He gave them a picture of what she looked like according to his memory, though she was wearing a mask, and sent them off.
He made sure that even if these people were caught, there would be no evidence leading back to the Crimson Slayer Sect.
The old man would’ve loved to send higher-level cultivators, but he knew the chances of them being caught were relatively high, and it would be a shame if the Sect were to lose anyone in the Soul Transformation Realm.
Those in the Core Formation and Nascent Soul Realm could still be considered rogue cultivators that decided to go up the mountains to hunt or search for opportunities.
However, there are very few Soul Transformation Realm cultivators on the Western Continent who aren’t part of some power, and this would cause the Battle Maiden Sect to grow suspicious of their origins.
Those in the Soul Transformation Realm also wouldn’t be hanging out around the level that the Outer Court was at, and with the Battle Maiden Sect’s hidden security, they’d catch onto this immediately.
Thus, the old man was forced to send these lower leveled disciples in hopes of being able to overwhelm Mira. Since she was in such a bad state after fighting against his disciple, who hadn’t even used his full power, he figured that as long as he sent a group of people, they should have no problem capturing her alive.
