Chapter 3936
The entire hillside had been stained red with blood, as disciples from the Heavenly Alliance and the Carter family
fell in pools of their own blood as they continued to fight!
They had been fighting for three days and three nights! During those three days, the Carter family had
continuously suffered injuries and deaths. There were less than 3000 left in three days of fierce fighting from the
initial tens of thousands of men. 1
On the other hand, the Heavenly Alliance still had 200,000 men. 4
Less than 3000 men against nearly 200,000 were like they had bitten off more than they could chew.
Even though the Carter family had help from the famous Famed Sword Manor, the Elixir Sect, and Zhu Bajie, they
were still unable to hold the Heavenly Alliance members back. However, they continued to defend their ground.
At that moment, on a cliff a few hundred meters away from the battlefield, Skylar Blanc stood there, his hands
behind his back. He was smiling as he watched the battle from afar.
Kendall Jones and a few Five Poison Sect disciples stood quietly behind him.
At that moment, Kendall spoke up, "Sect Master! The Heavenly Alliance and the Carter
family are fighting, should we join?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSkylar shook his head and smiled. " No need. As the saying goes— two dogs strive for a
bone, and a third runs away with it. Let them fight, and when they are defeated, we will
come out and clean up the mess." 1
Skylar was happy. "This time, the Heavenly Alliance has helped me a lot, stalling the
Carter family. Both sides fought here for three days and three nights, providing precious
time for Archfiend Antigonus to come out of the Devil Sealed Mirror."
Finally, Skylar glanced at the sky.
At that point, Archfiend Antigonus had been immersed in the blood pool in the chamber
for five days and five nights, and in another hour, he would be completely free of the Devil
Sealed Mirror. 2
Several figures flew in swiftly from somewhere nearby in the night sky.
The two women leading the group, one cheerful and charming, the other youthful and
energetic, were Agatha Lange, the Hidden Hero Sect's Sect Master, and her daughter,
Veron Lange. Elder Wind and Elder Fire were behind them.
The story of Skylar Blanc snatching the Devil Sealed Mirror from the Ghost World had
spread throughout the Nine Mainland.
The Hidden Hero Sect had also gotten the news, when they heard that the Heavenly
Alliance and the Carter Family were fighting, Agatha Lange decided to go and take a look.
Hmm?
Agatha was initially headed toward the battlefield to check out the situation, but she was
stunned when she passed the cliff and saw Skylar and the others. She landed on the
ground gently.
When Skylar saw Agatha, he also was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said,
"Master Lange, I hope that you're well."
"Skylar, you are hiding in the Five Poison Sect, indeed!" Agatha's eyebrows were furrowed
as she spoke. Then she looked at Kendall and the others behind Skylar. "Are the rumors
true? Are you really a descendant of a fiend? And you stole the Devil Sealed Mirror from
the Ghost World?" Agatha's delicate face was solemn as she asked that.
Previously, Agatha had admired Skylar, but because of the matter with the Devil Sealed Mirror, her opinion of
Skylar had changed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough the Hidden Hero Sect and the Godly Region were irreconcilable, they had their own principles to ensure
peace on the Nine Mainland. However, the fiends were a different story—they were an incomparably evil
existence.
Agatha figured that if Skylar were a descendant of a fiend as rumored, the Hidden Hero Sect would immediately
cease their alliance with him.
Skylar smiled bitterly and said, "Master Lange, you are a smart woman. How can you believe those rumors?"
Skylar said somberly, "I did go to the Ghost World, but I did not steal the Devil Sealed Mirror. Instead, I
investigated a secret. And the Heavenly Alliance deliberately made up some nonsense and slandered me. They
said that I stole the Devil Sealed Mirror.
"As you know, I made Rogart lose his pride at the Heaven Alliance's celebration party, so it's normal that they
would spread rumors about me." As he said that, Skylar's expression was serious, but his gaze flashed with a hint
of cunningness.
If others were to ask those questions, Skylar would definitely ignore them, but Agatha was different. She was the
Sect Master of the Hidden Hero Sect, and she had extraordinary strength.
Therefore, for the sake of unnecessary trouble, Skylar decisively lied to Agatha.
