Arrival

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

Miles Reynolds asked, bowing his head.

He was merely an ordinary Mid-God, and he had mentioned his own name out of fear that this powerhouse who had arrived in the Qingya Plane might make things difficult for him.

But judging by the tone of this lord, it seemed the Reynolds Family was not held in very high regard by the other party.

"No need."

Aier shook his head.

Having now adapted to the spatial density of the Material Plane, he naturally would not cause the space to tear just by moving slightly, as he had done moments before.

Aier looked up toward the direction of the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

That was the location of the only other Mid-God aura in the Qingya Plane besides Miles Reynolds.

If there were no surprises, the owner of that aura was Beirut, who would eventually succeed in snatching a prize right from under the nose of the Radiant Sovereign Augusta.

Although Beirut was currently only a Mid-God, his innate divine ability, God-Slaying, would be ineffective against Aier, who had already reached the level of a High-God.

However, until he achieved the level of a Paragon in the Wind Element, Aier would not appear before Beirut.

Choosing a direction at random, Aier's body transformed into a gust of breeze and vanished instantly from before Miles Reynolds.

Only after confirming that Aier had left did Miles Reynolds heave a sigh of relief, rise from the ground, and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Where did such a powerhouse come from?"

"Among all the people I have seen off over these years, not one matches this lord."

"Could it be someone who left during the time of the previous Plane Overseer?"

"Should I go find the Patriarch to check?"

After a long while, Miles Reynolds shook his head.

Such an existence was not someone he could afford to provoke.

Better not to invite trouble for himself.

If his strongest divine clone were to die here, he would have absolutely no status left within the Reynolds Family.

"Lord Aier, we have arrived."

After more than three hundred years, Aier's group had finally reached the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range.

Looking out from the window of the Metal Lifeform, Aier's first sight was that ten-thousand-meter-long Azure Dragon statue.

"Put the Metal Lifeform away."

Flying out of the Metal Lifeform, Aier said to Eric, "This is, after all, the residence of the Four Divine Beasts Clan Overgods. Regardless of whether they are still here, we must maintain respect."

"Yes, Lord Aier."

Upon hearing this, Eric stored the Metal Lifeform into his Space Ring.

"Alright, Eric, you and Bauer stay here and wait."

"Hector will accompany me to hold the Four Divine Beasts Clan accountable."

"Yes, Lord Aier."

A trace of worry flashed in Eric's eyes, but he knew that with his own strength, accompanying Lord Aier to the Four Divine Beasts Clan would only make him a burden.

In reality, even Hector Boy, who possessed the strength of a Six-Star Fiend, was in the same position.

However, Hector Boy was the one who had experienced the incident firsthand, and since Lord Aier was standing up for the Boy Family, it was only right and reasonable for him to go along.

"Rest assured, the Four Divine Beasts Clan cannot do anything to me."

Seeing Eric's mood, Aier patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "As my steward, Eric, you must have absolute confidence in me."

"I understand, Lord Aier."

Eric's expression turned solemn, and he replied seriously.

Indeed, Lord Aier was not the type to take unnecessary risks.

"I will be here waiting for your triumphant return, Lord Aier."

"Mm."

"Hector, let's go."

"Yes, Lord Aier."

Hector Boy took a deep breath to steady his nerves, then followed behind Aier as they walked toward the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range.

"Halt! This is the territory of the Four Divine Beasts Clan. Unauthorized personnel are forbidden from entering!"

In the canyon of the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, Aier and Hector Boy were intercepted by a squad guarding the area.

"Unauthorized personnel?"

Aier chuckled, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body, directly sending the squad of Four Divine Beasts Clan members flying.

"I am Aier, Prefect of Liang'an Prefecture. I imagine that after all these years, you Four Divine Beasts Clan members know why I have come."

"This time, I will forgive your offense."

"But if you dare to be disrespectful to me again, even if this is the territory of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, I will kill you all without hesitation!"

The members of this squad trembled under Aier's aura; from his tone, they could sense that he truly did not care whether or not he offended the Four Divine Beasts Clan.

But then again, it made sense.

Aier, the Prefect of Liang'an Prefecture, had set out from Liang'an Prefecture over three hundred years ago to hold the Four Divine Beasts Clan accountable, and this matter had been the biggest event in Hell for some time.

During this period, experts had frequently come to the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, wanting to see how this conflict between Aier and the Four Divine Beasts Clan would ultimately end.

These few men could never have imagined that Aier would arrive today, and that they would be the ones to intercept him.

"Go and report this to Gaisresen."

"If your Four Divine Beasts Clan does not wish to reason with me, then my fists are not exactly dull either!"

"Yes, yes, please wait a moment, Lord Aier!"

"I will go and report it at once."

The captain of this squad scrambled to his feet and immediately flew toward the interior of the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range.

Seeing this, the eyes of the remaining team members revealed expressions of disbelief.

As guards on patrol, all of their Saint Realm true bodies remained at the outpost; if anything happened, the true body or the remaining divine clones would immediately report to the clan, allowing the clan to handle the situation as quickly as possible.

The captain's behavior was, without a doubt, desertion, leaving all the danger to them.

However, faced with such a problem, there was nothing they could do at this moment.

The opponent was far more powerful and had a deeper background than ordinary clansmen like them.

At this moment, their true bodies left at the outpost had already been suppressed by the captain's divine clone, making it impossible for them to send any message.

Thus, the captain's strongest divine clone going to report the situation to the patriarch would not be viewed as fleeing.

Aier naturally did not know about these circumstances.

But judging by this, the Four Divine Beasts Clan either did not take him seriously, or they had already figured out how to deal with him.

Otherwise, they should have been monitoring his intelligence at all times, knowing when he would arrive at the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range and when he would come knocking.

"Do you regret it, Hector?"

Aier turned his head and asked Hector, "If your Boy Family had not pledged your service to me, perhaps you would not have encountered these things."

"With your capabilities, in the future, you might have truly been able to invest in a super expert to protect the Boy Family."
