Chapter 1901
The fighters who attacked the Nine Armies were all eliminated. Those who managed to escape were nothing but lowly minions. What would be Master Loador’s and Master Mackenzie’s expressions once they heard the news?

At that moment, Master Loador and Master Mackenzie were having drinks together in the Alliance Guard’s base camp. They had received news of the victory and how Pavilion Billow Cloud was left with no survivors. It was good news for the Alliance Guard as if a clan stronger than the Nine Armies were eliminated, it was logical for them to think that they were able to eliminate the Nine Armies too.

After picturing Jackie White dying at their hands, Master Loador could not help but laugh gleefully. He raised his glass and clinked against Master Mackenzie’s.

“What did I say? That brat would surely die at our hands. There was no need to worry after all. He’s only at the ultimate god level. No matter how strong he is, he will never win against someone from the soul-penetrating level,” said Master Loador in a breezy manner.

Master Mackenzie nodded his head in agreement. “I couldn’t agree more! They were truly making a fuss out of nothing. I don’t care how much of a talented master he is. He is a useless junk in my eyes as long as he doesn’t advance.”

The two of them laughed at what they had just said. After a while, Master Mackenzie suddenly asked, Why is there still no news about the Nine Armies? What’s taking them so long? Do you think they’ve run into some kind of problem?”

Master Loador shook his head at Master Mackenzie.” You should have more faith. They have probably met with some obstruction hence the delay in the news. But even so, I’m sure the obstruction is nothing they couldn’t handle so don’t worry.“

Master Mackenzie gently put down his glass and said with resignation in his voice, “It’s not that I want to worry but I cannot get rid of this sudden anxious feeling.”

Master Loador knitted his brows together, disapproving of how Master Mackenzie was making a big deal out of a small matter. “Enough! There’s no need to get your knickers in a twist. I’ve already specially instructed the men from Blood Stalwart Pavilion to make sure Jackie White is eliminated from the face of this earth!”

He then drank two big gulps from his glass and his cheeks started to flush red. “The Nine Armies are small fries compared to the Pavilion Billow Cloud and need I remind you that we’ve managed to eliminate the latter? So don’t worry!”

Master Mackenzie nodded his head and chastised himself for needlessly worrying even though his heart was anxiously beating against his chest.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard and a small-eyed disciple crashed in. It was evident something big had happened based on his panicked look. Master Loador furiously slammed down his glass on the octagonal table. “How dare you behave like this? What happened?!” he shouted angrily.

The small-eyed disciple dared not raise his head. His eyes were filled with panic and he gulped before answering, “We have received news that most of the men who were sent to take out the Nine Armies didn’t make it back. Only one or two thousand of them managed to escape the slaughter.”

Upon hearing the news, both Master Loador and Master Mackenzie’s expressions turned ugly. Especially Master Loador’s, the shock caused his eyes to widen greatly. He slammed his hand on the table and roared furiously, “What did you just say?!”

Chapter 1902
The news struck them down like lightning. Mere moments ago, they were still in a pre-celebratory mood and now it felt like they were being drenched with a bucket of ice-cold water. This must be a joke!

Master Loador stared at the trembling disciple kneeling on the ground. “Tell me again what exactly happened? How could the Nine Armies be so strong?” His voice, shaky and cold.

The disciple was so frightened that his words started to run over each other. He was clearly aware that he would not be able to leave this secret room alive if he angered the two men in front of him. He managed to get his words out, confirming to both Master Loader and Master Mackenzie that what they had heard the first time was right. That they were not hallucinating after all

It was only normal for them to be livid with rage to discover that all their strongest men had been killed and they were only left with lowly minions. “Get out!” Although the order was said in a raging tone, it was like heavenly music to the frightened disciple’s ear. He felt liberated and left the room without looking back.

Master Loador’s face turned black with rage and if one looked closely, one could see he was trembling all over. Master Mackenzie knitted his brow together and felt vindicated of the anxiety he felt before. “It’s just as I feared. How could we not receive any news about the Nine Armies when it had been a while since we heard about the Pavilion Billow Cloud? And yet you told me not to worry. What do you have to say for yourself now?”

Master Loador took a deep breath as his eyelids kept twitching. He still could not believe what was happening. “There must be some mysteriously strong person helping them. How else could our men be slaughtered so easily? It is simply illogical. Think about it, out of the men we’ve sent, there were two third-grade soul-penetrating level fighters and three first-grade soul-penetrating level fighters!”

His confidence was not without basis as the fighters he sent were enough to eliminate the Nine Armies many times over and yet these five fighters were all dead. He was unwilling to accept that fact.

Master Mackenzie knitted his brow again as confusion clouded him, but he was slightly calmer than Master Loador. He then said, “No matter what, we have to accept that all our most powerful men had died at the hands of that brat. I’ve already told you that brat is no ordinary person.”

Upon hearing that, Master Loador raised his head and gave out a snort of disagreement. “Why do you keep on praising him? Don’t you realize that he is only of the ultimate god level? No matter how talented he is, it’s impossible for him to win against someone from the soul-penetrating level.”

Though what Master Loador said was not without its merit, Master Mackenzie’s correctly intuit that the reason for their heavy losses in battle had to do with Jackie White. “Don’t be so quick to refute me. Much time had passed since he was of the ultimate god level perhaps he had already reached the soul penetrating level.”

Upon hearing this, Master Loador went back to sit down on the table again. “So what if he did reach the soul-penetrating level? I bet he would still be at the bottom rung of the level.” Master Mackenzie had given up explaining as he realized nothing he said could turn around Master Loador’s biases against Jackie White. He was well aware that Jackie White would not be able to overturn the battle with his talents alone.

The seriousness of the problem dawned on him and there was no use arguing further with Master Loador. He walked to the table and took up his glass again.

Chapter 1903
Master Mackenzie stared coldly at the empty glass.” I don’t care what you think about Jackie White. I’ve already made up my mind to do everything in my power to stop him from advancing further.”

Master Loador knitted his brow and glanced sideways at Master Mackenzie. “Are you saying that you’ll personally handle him?”

Master Mackenzie nodded his head without any hesitation. “You should save your breath trying to talk me out of it with your baseless logic. That brat is not the same puny insect that we can easily squash under our feet. He’s more like a tiger now, though still nothing we can’t handle.”

Master Loador turned around and stared at Master Mackenzie with a grave expression. Master Mackenzie did not bother looking back at him and continued on saying, “If we don’t do something about him, it’ll be our heads rolling on the ground next. Thus, he should be prevented from advancing further at all costs. We would need to gather all the Alliance Guard’s power to take down the Nine Armies even if others might think we’re making something out of nothing.”

The high death toll of so many skilled fighters had sounded an alarm bell in Master Mackenzie’s mind. He took a deep breath and shouted at the guards outside of the door, “Send the message to all of the higher-level-ups of the Alliance Guard to gather in the meeting room!”

The tension in the meeting room was palpable and it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. The higher-level-ups had already received reports from their disciples about the Nine Armies’ situation before they gathered. Their expressions all tuned grave when they received the news. Alathic Hackford of the Wind Cloud Pavilion, one of the six great clans, was so incensed that his beard curled up unto itself. He could not believe that the Nine Armies were able to eliminate all their skilled fighters.

Master Mackenzie went straight to the point and told them all about his thinking. Master Hackford frowned upon hearing his plan for he did not fully agree with it. “So your plan is for us to leave our base camp and head toward the Nine Armies? Isn’t this a bit too much?” Though he was similarly furious about all the dead fighters, he did not think they needed to leave where they were and fight to the death at the enemy’s location.
