Fantasy: I Receive Critical Chance For Compensation When I Give Away Fateful Encounters - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 A Demon from the Sky Demon Sect!

When disciples outside of the Heavenly Domain encountered a request for help, as long as nothing too serious had happened, they had to lend their assistance. If the situation was beyond their power, running was acceptable, but if they were too cowardly to even check out what occurred, they would be punished harshly.

Once, someone had ignored the request for aid because they were worried their cultivation levels weren’t high enough. However, the investigations of the authorities from the Blue Sea Sect, who enforced the Heavenly Domain’s laws, had caught up with them eventually. Not only had this individual been imprisoned for decades, but they had been cast out by their sect after being released. At a loss, they had had no choice but to leave the Heavenly Domain.

Therefore, if one encountered a request for help from the Heavenly Domain, it was best to go over and take a look. Even if they encountered danger and were forced to escape, they could avoid punishment if they were questioned.

It had been ten years since Su’en had entered the Heavenly Domain, but he often cultivated in seclusion and didn’t go out much. Hence, this was the first time he had seen a request for aid from the Heavenly Domain. His master had spoken to him about this: If he saw such a request in Jingzhou, the one who had issued the cry for help must have encountered a problem they couldn’t resolve alone.

Jingzhou was ruled by the Heavenly Domain; those who dared to attack its disciples were usually not only powerful, but also prepared.

With that in mind, Su’en picked up speed, turning into a blur in the air as he sped away.

Although the word ‘help’ in the sky was very big, it was still quite far away, and it took him almost half an hour to get there.

When he arrived, he found a man covered in blood lying on the grass, clinging onto the last vestiges of life. He was dressed in black, and had tattoos resembling starry symbols.

“A member of the Purple Star Sect?” Su’en asked.

The Purple Star Sect was one of the four high-level sects. Someone had actually dared to attack their disciples? Who the hell would be so bold?

Sensing that someone was coming, the man struggled to open his eyes. His eyes filled with hope when she saw Su’en.

“Quick… quick, save Senior Gu and the others!”

“Don’t be hasty.” Su’en hurried to feed the man a healing pill. “What happened? Who in the world attacked you two?”

After taking the pill, the man seemed to recover some of his strength. “A demon from the Sky Demon Sect of the Northern Plains. His target was Senior Gu!”

“A demon from the Sky Demon Sect?”

Su’en understood now: only those lunatics from the Northern Plains would dare to attack disciples of the Heavenly Domain in Jingzhou.

Of the continents, Jingzhou had the best geographical location and was richest in spiritual energy, whereas the Northern Plains were the worst place to live. Not only was it freezing cold, but resources were also scarce. The Northern Plains had always wanted to occupy Jingzhou, and so they had sent some of their best over to attack the Heavenly Domain.

“How strong is this demon? Where is he?” Before heading to his destination, Su’en had to ask for information about the enemy.

“This demon is already at the perfected late-stages of the Golden Core Realm. He’s about a hundred miles away from here.”

“Okay, got it!” Su’en nodded; he could deal with a perfected late-stage Golden Core opponent. He had just perfected the Eighteen Arhat Golden Body Technique. Unless he was facing a Spirit Convocation Realm expert, his defense was more or less impenetrable.

“You stay here and recover. I’ll go over first!” Su’en rose and left.

“May I ask your name and which sect you belong to?” the injured man called out.

“Su’en of the Dao Sect.” With that, Su’en soared off into the horizon.

“The Dao Sect?”

The man on the ground frowned, thinking carefully. Was there such a sect in the Heavenly Domain? Why had he never heard of it?

In a vast plain, a black figure walked on thin air. He was thin and weak, surrounded by black demonic energy. Even his open eyes were a frightening red.

Below him, there was a small defensive array with a few figures sitting inside: two men and two women.

One of them was a young girl in a starry-patterned robe. She had an athletic figure and a pretty face, and her black hair was tied back in pigtails. At this moment, her face was pale and there was blood around her mouth. She looked at the black shadow in the sky, eyes shining with murderous hate.

“I can’t believe this damned demon of the Sky Demon Sect dared to ambush us! If you’re so bold, fight me one-on-one. What’s the point of sneak attacks?”

The girl’s name was Gu Chuyao. She was the daughter of an elder of the Purple Star Sect. She was currently at the early-stages of the Golden Core Realm and was about to enter its mid-stages. She was currently ranked 30th among the Purple Star Sect’s true disciples. Not that impressive, until one considered that she was only 17 years old!

“Senior Gu, what should we do next?”

Although the remaining three people were older than Gu Chuyao, seniority in the Heavenly Domain was based on strength. As long as one hailed from a powerful sect, they would be addressed as ‘Senior’ by those from lower-level sects, regardless of age.

“Don’t worry, Junior Chu escaped earlier. You saw his request for aid to the Heavenly Domain.” Gu Chuyao took a deep breath and continued, “As long as there are people from the Heavenly Domain around, they will definitely come to help us.”

“But most of the disciples in the Heavenly Domain stay in their own sects to cultivate and don’t come out often. Will anyone come over?”

“Moreover, this demon is already at the perfected late-stages of the Golden Core Realm. What if whoever comes to assist us isn’t as strong as him?”

The juniors all spoke at once.

“Then we can sit back and wait to die.” Gu Chuyao wiped her sweat away. “If I hadn’t used up most of my tools during our mission, a Golden Core demon of the Sky Demon Sect would be no match for me. And the damned thing actually launched a sneak attack. It’s like it was trying to piss me off! If I can get out alive, I’ll chase him down and cut off his head so that I can kick it like a ball!”

Just as Gu Chuyao was complaining about the demon in the sky, it launched an attack. He waved dozens of blood-red saber Qi that landed on the defensive array formation.

The defensive disc in front of Gu Chuyao trembled violently as it began to crack.

“Crap. We’re done for!”

When Gu Chuyao saw that the defensive disc was about to give way, more sweat appeared on her forehead. She knew that once this defensive disc shattered, they would die on the spot!

She had been working hard at cultivation for so many years. She had wanted to display her talent in the upcoming Heavenly Domain Ceremony and obtain more resources to assist in her cultivation. Only to stumble upon a demon from the Sky Demon Sect while on a mission-who seemed to be targeting her, for whatever reason.

What bloody bad luck!
