Gacha Sovereign
chapter-534

Alex masked Leoz's and Jeanne's presence by his Spiritual Energy.

He purposely came to the auction alone because of this reason. Unlike the previous time he went to the auction with Anna, the people here would surely suspect him doing anything by deliberately spreading his Spiritual Energy.

The only way they could observe was him releasing his Spiritual Energy because there was friction with the Blackwade Clan staff. The Blue West Clan and Antheream Family had seen Song Jia enter with him, so they thought Song Jia might displease him.

Ruben and Lucia exchanged looks, noticing they had the same thought.

"We are going to meet him after this," Ruben said without hesitation.

Lucia was a bit unsure of doing this since he could even buy Flame Heating Lotus with three million six hundred Spirit Stones. With that much money, what kind of thing they had to entice him. She kept pondering it over and over again while waiting for their items.

The same applied to Fire God Clan, Joyful Union Sect, and the others.

The Fire God Clan wanted to take this opportunity to weaken the Blackwade Clan. Considering they had amassed a huge amount of money, they would likely do something. And if they managed to rob the Spirit Nest from them, it was the best move against the Blackwade Clan. On the other hand, it would also remove the possibility of them attacking their clan. The Fire God Clan Patriarch's plan might be useless, but he surely could not say no with the addition of Spirit Nest in their rank. They only needed to solve one thing, which was the Joyful Union Sect's matter.

While thinking like that, the Joyful Union Sect's elder pumped his fist. The Spirit Nest would go to war without the help from the Blackwade Clan. This would give them a very big advantage.

Although they did not know the full extent of Spirit Nest, after the raids a few months ago in all their base, they could speculate that the Spirit Nest did not really have many people.

Even if all of them were 5-Star Martial Emperors, they could not defeat their entire sect. Unfortunately, he knew he could neither go back nor inform the sect master about this news.

The sect had chosen him as a sacrifice for this situation, and he agreed in exchange for the treatment of his family. In the end, he only muttered to himself. "Even if I die, my family and disciples won't."

Determination filled his eyes as he took a deep breath. The moment the door opened, he took the space ring from the staff and left.

Walking through the crowd in the auction house and the city, he bypassed everything to escape from this city before Alex realized it.

Unfortunately, after flying for one minute and going inside the forest to camouflage, he felt killing intent from his right and left. He took out his spear instinctively as two shadows appeared on the corner of his eyes. He swung his spear but never expected that the opponent would have tremendous power.

"Spear Blast!"

The first shadow on his left struck the spear with his big sword.

"Thunder Slash!"

Leoz revealed his element and blew the spear away.

A trace of shock appeared on his face as he lost the grip on his spear. In that split second, he realized Leoz's power and said with a surprised tone. "Martial Mon-Gah!"

Before he could utter the last word, a short sword had pierced his body, specifically his heart and reduced his heart by a spark of lightning.

"-arc..." He also sensed Jeanne's power, and it completely blew his mind. Two Martial Monarchs came just to kill him. This could mean that the Spirit Nest was going to win this war seriously. The Joyful Union Sect only had a single Martial Monarch, so this certainly big news for them. Unfortunately, he was only a puny 7-Star Martial Emperor. Even in the elite elder rank, he was one of the weakest as his training as a new elder in the brothel just ended one year ago. He stretched his hand to the sky despite having blurry eyes and little energy before gradually dying.

Leoz and Jeanne only stared at him with empty eyes, didn't care about his motivation, and turned around.

"Jeanne, you should act natural. Young Master won't like that." Leoz observed Jeanne's stern expression and knew her condition.

Jeanne still blamed herself no matter what kind of words Alex uttered. Although she was a bit calmer because of Alex's warning, she had yet to return to normal. Even when Jean volunteered himself, Jeanne ignored him and finished her own business.

The next words coming out of her mouth completely blew Leoz's mind. Her expression was serious, so Leoz knew what she would say was something special and prepared his heart.

"I will stop teasing Jean until I have destroyed the Joyful Union Sect with my own hands." Jeanne clenched her hands and bit her lips.

"Young Master never blames you though."

"Even so, I am still planning to do the same." Jeanne ignored him, separated the head, burned the dead body with her lightning, and informed Alex, "Master, we have finished our mission."

...

A few minutes ago,

Alex relaxed in his room while waiting for Song Yu to come back. He noticed a few staff members had returned and gave the others their items while they gave the money.

Because of the importance of these people, the elders from the Blackwade Clan who transacted with them, preventing anyone from bullying or stealing their items.

Song Yu came together with the elders and entered Alex's room with his item.

"This is your item. You have a VIP Card, so there is a discount for you. Though I can only waive all the six hundred thousand for you."

"So..." Alex calculated in his mind and handed her one million Spirit Gems. "With my medicinal ingredients and this one million Spirit Gems, it should be enough, right?"

"Yeah." Song Yu nodded.

In the end, he gathered all the medicinal ingredients in the other world for a single Flame Heating Lotus. He shook his head, not knowing whether it was a waste or not.

"Now, I think you should go to chase the elder from Joyful Union Sect. After all, if we did anything to him, the Fire God Clan would use it as their advantage." Song Yu sighed.

"You don't need to worry about that as that old man is going to die soon." Alex closed his eyes and leaned on his chair.

Song Yu realized the reason why he had no one accompanying him. She closed her eyes, sat on her previous couch, and sighed. "I see. I really can't beat you, Junior Brother. I can't imagine what kind of calamity I would invite if the sect master does not make you my junior brother."

"Haha... I am not a hostile one who would kill everyone in sight nor am I a hero of justice that would protect someone and the like. As long as they don't provoke me, then you do you, I do me. My way is that simple." He paused for a moment, looked at her, and made a strange atmosphere. "Though I might want to warn you, I am serious about what I said a few months ago."

Song Yu tilted her head in confusion for a second before realizing what he meant. She shook her head. "I am not going to pick a fight with you. After all, you are my junior brother. Besides, with your master, my family would not stand a chance."

"That's good then. I have too many enemies already, so I don't want to add another one." Alex said without any hidden intention as he simply meant it. However, it might be precisely because he did not have any intention, which made it even more terrifying.

"I don't know why, but you are scaring me." Song Yu realized what she said and shook her head. "Ah, sorry. Just forget about it."

Alex only looked at her eyes for a moment and closed his eyes.

She did not notice Alex was summoning his cards to recall Jeanne and Leoz back. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "When are you leaving and your plan?"

"For the time being, I will just chill in this room until all the people leave. They are not going to stay for long anyway. After that, we will use the night as a cover and head to the Joyful Union Sect. Considering our distance, we would arrive in four days or so. I will rescue Evelyn within that time and wait until you guys come."

"Then we will start the war..." Song Yu added with a serious expression.

"Yeah. That's basically it." Alex noticed the confusion in Song Yu's expression and said, "Don't ask how I will rescue Evelyn. I just have a way."

"Alright."

The atmosphere became heavy, so Alex changed the topic just to lighten the atmosphere.

They talked about the general war plan, positioning, timing, and other details. Song Yu could not talk as she kept taking note after note from Alex's plan. Eventually, they lacked topics to talk about, so Alex decided to cultivate.

...

After waiting for a while, the guests started coming out of the auction house, disappointed as they could not meet Alex. They thought he needed more time in dealing with his matter with the Blackwade Clan. After that, they could easily poach him.

Unfortunately, Alex would never appear as he was still chilling inside the room. Song Yu had gone to help Song Jia in organizing the army because he said those people were still waiting on the front gate.

There was one positive and one negative for this. Firstly, they could outspeed them, and they could do nothing with their tiny number. However, they would also find out that the Blackwade Clan participated in the war. In other words, they were tricked by that pressure, and this would cost them a lot.

And when it was over, they would regret deeply, especially the Fire God Clan.

On the other hand, after waiting for a good amount of time, he used his teleportation array and appeared a hundred kilometers from the city.

He created several teleportation arrays and arrived in front of the Joyful Union Sect in an instant.

The Joyful Union Sect's territory was vast, bigger than Blackwade Clan's city. Before entering, Alex summoned all of his spirits and contracted beasts. "You guys stay here."

"Wait! I can't accept that." Anna stopped him from going, not having the same opinion as him. "I know you will use your Space Element, but it's still dangerous. At the very least, bring Leoz or Jeanne inside. It will be safer that way."

Alex knew she said it because she was scared the previous thing would happen again. "Alright."
