Chapter 2980
Gath did not answer right away. He scanned his surroundings to make sure
that there was no one around before he approached White Horse.
When he was closer, Gath lowered his voice and whispered, "Sect Master, I
think I saw Sect Master Chester just now!"
What?
White Horse was shocked. He jumped in his seat and almost spat out the
tea in his mouth.
'Chester? Isn't he dead? I watched him fall into the abyss with my own
eyes. How could he possibly be alive?'
White Horse tried to calm down and said coldly, "Gath, are you sure?"
Gath replied hurriedly, "I dare not lie to you, Sect Master. It was Chester,
and it seemed that he's heading toward the South Cloud World!"
Then, Gath told White Horse in detail about how he had met Chester.
After listening to the story, White Horse sat on his seat, unperturbed.

shall prepare a big welcome gift for him!"
White Horse wore a wide grin on his face, but his eyes flashed with a gloomy chill.
"Yes, Sect Master!" Gath responded quickly before he went off to make the preparations.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the mountain path a few kilometers away from the town...
It was night, and the winding mountain road was quiet. A lonely person moved forward slowly in the nearby
distance.
The person was in a black robe. His complexion was a little pale, but he was exuding a refined aura, nonetheless.
It was Chester.
He had left Donoghue the previous day to cultivate by himself in the valley. He wanted to look for Darryl once he
was fully recovered, while he was on his way, he saw many sects rushing toward the South Cloud World.
He made some inquiries and learned that the Empress wanted to build the Profound Heaven Great Formation for
the Nine Saint Oracles. He knew that Darryl would undoubtedly be there, so he rushed toward the same location
without any hesitation.
Chester acted cautiously. He had not completely broken away from the soul contract that he had made with the
King of the Dead, so he knew that the evil spirit on his body would be exposed eventually. So, he took the lesser-
known paths to avoid the other travelers.
Um?
As he walked, Chester heard some noise ahead of him; it sounded like some cursing and beating mixed with an
elder pleading for mercy.
Chester rushed forward without hesitation. He frowned when he entered the woods and saw the scene in front of
him. He was extremely annoyed!
He saw an old man with a bamboo basket pushed onto the ground. The herbs in his bamboo basket were scattered
everywhere, and one of his legs seemed to be crippled. He looked pitiful.
A few cultivators stood beside the old man; they were swearing and cursing at him.
"F*ck! How dare you pick herbs within the boundary of the Divine Wind
Sect? Are you sick of living?!"
"Old man, do you know that the herbs in this area belong to the Divine Wind
Sect?"
"Give us a million bucks in Nine Mainland currency, and we will spare you."
The old man panicked when those angry cultivators scolded him. He begged
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor mercy. "Please forgive me. I don't have a million bucks. My wife is
seriously ill, and there is nothing else I can do besides coming here to
collect some herbs— "
"If you have no money, then pay with your life!"
The leader of the cultivator group chided viciously. Then, he drew his
longsword and thrust it at the old man.
F*ck!
Chester witnessed the scene; he knew he could not afford to hesitate. He
rushed forward and shouted, "stop!"
He knew that someone in the old man's family was sick, and that was why
he was there to pick some herbs. He happened to break into the Divine
Wind Sect's territory.
Those people from the Divine Wind Sect were arrogant and overbearing.
They had wanted to kill the old man for a few stalks of herbs.
Chester was a righteous man; he could not just watch the poor man suffer
without doing anything.
