Skylar had not been captured, and now there was the ancient poisonous centipede to deal with.
Things were looking worse by the second.
"You here, the few of you!"
A thought seemed to come to Chester. He turned to order the people around him, "Send people to all the major Sects asking for help immediately. Inform them in detail of what happened. Oh, and send for the Senior Divine Farmer's presence. Hurry, now."
The Senior Divine Farmer had not come along with Chester and Ambrose's army to the Five Poison Sect. Instead they had let him stay behind, with Zhu Bajie and Chang Er at the Carters.
Since Darryl wasn't here, all hope to conquer the ancient poisonous centipede was now on the Senior Divine Farmer.
After all, the Senior Divine Farmer did have the title of the Medicine Ancestor. He might know of a way to conquer the ancient poisonous centipede.
"Alright!"
Having received the command, the disciples of the Carter household hurried off to act on them.
Chester, Ambrose and everyone else stayed on the hill to keep track of the centipede's every movement.
……
On the other end was the Five Poison Sect!
Skylar soared through the air in a circle. Upon making sure no one was following him, he returned to the Five Poison Sect.
"Sect Master!"
As soon as he landed, he was greeted with the sight of a rapidly approaching Kendall. Expectation was written all over her face. "How did it go?"
The truth was, the task of clearing out the ancient poisonous centipede had actually been Kendall's responsibility. The only problem was that the ancient poisonous centipede was far too powerful, and Kendall would have not been capable of luring it to the canyon. This was why Skylar had to take on her task.
At the inquiry, Skylar smiled. "It was a success. The ancient poisonous centipede had not only held the Heavenly Alliance back at the canyon, but also the Carters."
"As of right now the canyon has been completely enveloped in the poisonous fog comma and it's now considered dangerous territory. No one will be able to pass through it for a while."
Success!
Kendall seemed very satisfied with the response she had gotten. A thought came to her. "Sect Master, I heard Darryl Darby has gone to the Godly Region in search of glazed water. It's apparently to cure Dax Sanders and Neil Wilson of the Soul-devouring Bloodworms they had gotten infested with."
As she spoke, Kendall attempted at testing the waters. "We should take down the Carters while Darryl Darby isn't here."
Taking the life of Darryl, as well as that of the Carters, had been Kendall's ultimate wish. She had not forgotten it, not for a single second.
