Dante scoffed. “So what if I am?”
The Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect might be one of the lower-ranked sects among the Four Elite Sects, but they were still not a sect that a second-tier sect could afford to mess with.
Besides, he had already achieved late-stage Profound Oriental Realm, while the Zen Heart Sect’s Great Elder had only achieved mid-stage Profound Oriental Realm.
Barrett’s eyebrows knitted together even more tightly. Then, he turned to Geronimo and Minaba as he asked, “Are you two going to get yourselves involved as well?”
Geronimo gave a slight smile. “Cloud Ascendant Palace and the Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect have been good friends for a long time. Whatever concerns Dante concerns me too!”
Minaba chanted, “For the sake of peace, I don't wish to participate in any battles!”
The Zen Heart Sect was considered a prodigy among the second-tier sects.
He was the Ember Moon Clan’s highest-ranking individual, and he had only just achieved the Profound Oriental Realm. He could not afford to get on anyone’s wrong side!
Barrett showed no fear of Dante, and he gave a composed smile as he said, “You two have only achieved the Profound Oriental Realm, so what makes you think you can deal with this matter?”
He had only just finished his sentence when two glowing beams flew toward them from a nearby mountain.
Two people landed beside Barrett.
One was a man, and the other was a woman. Both seemed to be in their 40s.
The man was the deputy leader of the Zen Heart Sect and had achieved the late Profound Oriental Realm cultivation level.
The woman was the deputy leader of the Misty Templar Court, and her cultivation level was at the mid-stage Profound Oriental Realm.
That meant the Misty Templar Court and Zen Heart Sect had four experts who had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm.
“Greetings, Deputy Leader!”
“Greetings, Deputy Leader!”
Elistan, Laverne, and the others all bowed in greeting to their elders.
Roscoe Bard, who was the deputy leader of the Zen Heart Sect, furrowed his sharp brows together. “Dante, are you picking on the Zen Heart Sect because there aren’t too many of us?”
The look on Dante’s face changed slightly. He had not been expecting the deputy leaders of the Zen Heart Sect and the Misty Templar Court to have entered the secret realm.
Four Profound Oriental Realm experts made things extremely stressful.
However, as the representative of the Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect, an elite sect, he could not appear cowardly. “The Divine Strategy Squadron is a governmental organization, Roscoe. Are you sure you want to be on opposing sides with the government?”
Roscoe said calmly, “Does the fact that they’re a governmental organization give them the right to hold all the power? Where were they back when the cultivators were in battle?”
Geronimo chimed in, “You shouldn’t say that, Mr. Bard. Everyone should be held accountable for what happened. The secular sects’ contribution back when the foreign cultivators invaded us should not be forgotten, but that doesn't mean you should keep holding this against the Divine Strategy Squadron, nor should you use this as a reason to bully them.
"In recent years, the world has experienced plenty of prosperity and stabilization thanks to the reforms that the politicians introduced one at a time!”
