Andrew said, "It's time to go. Their Azure Dragon Bloodline still needs to be baptized by the Four Divine Beasts Clan before it can awaken. Besides, I'll be personally escorting them this time, so there won't be any safety issues."
"I want to go too!" Ling'er exclaimed eagerly upon hearing this.
"You?" Andrew asked, " Ling'er, you don't have the Azure Dragon Bloodline, nor do you need baptism. What are you going there for?"
Ling'er rolled her eyes at him and said, "I've been in Bloodflame City for over a hundred years, and I'm already fed up with it. Besides, the book says that the Four Divine Beasts Clan is one of the top clans in countless planes. How can I miss the chance to see it for myself?"
Andrew chuckled, "Let me tell you, the Four Divine Beasts Clan is not what the books say. Ever since the Four Divine Beasts perished, they have been hunted down by their enemies everywhere. Right now, outside the Skyrite Mountains, the Eight Great Clans are fighting a war against the Four Divine Beasts Clan."
Ling'er said sweetly, "Of course I know, that's why I'm even more determined to go!"
Andrew was somewhat helpless and was trying to think of a reason to keep her at home when Han Yue said, " Andrew, since so many people are going this time, one more Ling'er won't make a difference. Let her come along. She's been in Bloodflame City for so long, she's already fed up."
Shaking his head, Andrew smiled wryly, "Alright, let them go. It seems I can't control them." The main reason he didn't want Ling'er and Han Yue to go was because he was worried about their safety. However, Andrew thought about it again, and with himself, Pusluo, and Dikor escorting them, as long as the Eight Great Clans didn't fight him to the death, it wouldn't be a big problem.
After a day of preparation, early the next morning, a Metallic Lifeform took off from the lord's castle. The Metallic Lifeform was a hundred meters long, shaped like Golden Dragon, and was controlled by Pusluo; it was very fast.
Inside the Metallic Lifeform, Pusluo guards the front, Dikor guards the rear, and Andrew and his family are in the middle.
Andrew and Han Yue sat by the window, glancing at their juniors, then at each other with smiles. This time, the entire Lance family was present, except for Howard and Janice. Among them, Andrew, Han Yue, and Ling'er did not need to be baptized.
" Andrew, do you think the Azure Dragon Clan will agree to Herbert and the others being baptized?" Han Yue asked with some concern.
Andrew looked out the window and calmly said, "I will. Even if they disagree, I have ways to make them agree. I wouldn't have been so confident before, but the Four Divine Beasts Clan aren't as powerful as they seem on the surface these days."
"Are the Eight Great Clans really that powerful?" Han Yue asked again.
Andrew chuckled, " The Eight Great Clans are no simple matter. Each one is a super power in the Divine Plane. When these eight super powers combine, even the Four Divine Beasts Clan are no match for them. However, they are not worth my attention. I am only one step away from breaking through. Once I take that step, I can sweep away Eight Great Clans!"
Han Yue leaned against him and laughed, "You think you're so great? Fine. Hmph, let me tell you, I'm about to break through too!"
Andrew looked at her. "You've already grasped three of the Mysteries of the Laws of Light, right? Are you about to grasp the fourth?"
Han Yue said proudly, "I've already comprehended the fourth one, and I'm almost at the pinnacle. I'm confident that with another thousand years of cultivation, I'll be able to break through and comprehend all six profound Mysteries, becoming Highgod!"
Hearing this, Andrew praised her repeatedly, but in his heart he was unconvinced. Before coming to Bloodflame City, Han Yue had already comprehended two Mysteries and become Midgod of light. During the hundred years she spent in Bloodflame City, Andrew found many experts in the Laws of Light to guide her, not to mention the potions and treasures that increased her Divine Power. It can be said that Han Yue's soul had reached the limit of Midgod long ago.
Under such circumstances, comprehending two Mysteries in just over a hundred years is indeed nothing special.
Of course, this was just Andrew's own opinion; compared to him, Han Yue's achievements were indeed not high. However, in the entire Infernal Realm, this cultivation speed was considered very fast.
"Moon, don't get too cocky." After praising her, Andrew poured some cold water on her enthusiasm. "Comprehending the profound mysteries is only the first step; integrating them is the foundation. Don't be fooled by the fact that you've comprehended more profound mysteries than Herbert; in terms of combat power, you're probably no match for him."
Metallic Lifeform shaped like Golden Dragon traverse the vast continent.
The straight-line distance from Bloodflame City to the Skyrite Mountains is about two billion miles, which is not far. At Pusluo's speed, it would only take him a little over half a year to get there.
Like other parts of the Infernal Realm, their journey was far from peaceful, encountering countless bandits. Of course, these bandits posed no threat to Andrew and his companions.
As they approached the Skyrite Mountains, Andrew became more cautious, extending his divine sense forward continuously.
"They've hidden a lot of people. It seems the warning line for the Eight Great Clans is stretching for tens of thousands of miles ahead!"
That day, Andrew's divine sense detected a number of intelligence agents, most of whom were elves, and some who cultivated Laws of Wind. Needless to say, they definitely belonged to the Eight Great Clans.
"We're almost at the Skyrite Mountains, everyone be on high alert!" Andrew warned, frowning. As the Metallic Lifeform approached, he realized that there were far too many spies from the Eight Great Clans in this direction, so many that his Metallic Lifeform simply couldn't avoid them.
Since there was no way to avoid it, Andrew had no choice but to force his way through.
"These guys are too persistent." Andrew was speechless when it came to the Eight Great Clans. Under other circumstances, Andrew wouldn't have to worry at all; he could just fly over and eliminate anyone who dared to stop him. But not today.
Among the Metallic Lifeform, besides Andrew, Pusluo, and Dikor, Han Yue, Ling'er, Herbert, and Deenmike are Midgod; the rest are Lowgod. No matter how strong Andrew is, he can't guarantee that he can protect these juniors in battle.
" Yue'er, Ling'er, use the Sovereign’s Might once the battle breaks out." Just in case, Andrew gave them a few more instructions. Among the group, Han Yue and the other three each had two drops of the Sovereign’s Might. As for the remaining Lowgod, some were given one drop of the Sovereign’s Might by Andrew, while others were not.
The Metallic Lifeform drew closer and closer to the Skyrite Mountains, and soon flew above a group of lurking members from the Eight Great Clans.
"Whoosh!"
A green Metallic Lifeform shot into the sky from the ground, blocking Andrew and his group. Then, several figures flew out.
"Stop!" shouted an elf carrying a longbow.
The Golden Dragon Metallic Lifeform stopped, Pusluo flew away.
"Who are you? What are you doing in the Skyrite Mountains?" The elf, who seemed to be the leader of these people, questioned Pusluo loudly upon seeing him.
Pusluo was a scoundrel to begin with—strong, hot-tempered, and somewhat twisted. His eyes turned red when the other party shouted at him like that.
"Who are you? Get out of my way right now!" The three-meter-tall Pusluo roared, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, startling the other party.
"How dare you!" The lead elf became more alert, his longbow already drawn, a bright green arrow pointed at Pusluo.
"How dare you be disrespectful to my Edric Clan! Judging from your appearance, you are probably related to the Four Divine Beasts Clan. In the Indigo Prefecture, anyone associated with the Four Divine Beasts Clan must die!" He had barely finished saying the word "die" when the long arrow was already shot out.
This action thoroughly enraged Pusluo.
Enraged, Pusluo remained motionless, letting the arrows rain down upon him. His scarlet armor gleamed brilliantly. With a "clang," a jade-green arrow struck the armor, leaving a white dot.
"I don't care about your damned Edric Clan! If you mess with your grandpa Pusluo, you're all dead!" Pusluo broke the arrow in half and threw a punch. The opponent didn't even have time to dodge and was instantly blown apart.
"How arrogant the Edric Clan." Inside the Metallic Lifeform, Andrew smiled contemptuously. The leading elf was only a five or six-star demon, yet he was so arrogant, purely courting death.
"Captain!" Upon seeing the elf die, the dozen or so elves beside him cried out in unison, and then more than a dozen arrows were shot toward Pusluo.
With a sweep of his fist, Pusluo knocked the arrows aside. His figure flashed, like a wolf among sheep, like a tiger descending a mountain, killing an elf with a single punch. Each elf was reduced to a cloud of blood mist, a truly gruesome scene.
"You dare kill someone from the Edric Clan? You will not have a good end!" These were the last words of the last dying elf.
After dealing with these people, an even bigger problem arose.
Andrew's divine sense detected that dozens of Metallic Lifeform had taken off from 20,000 miles away and were heading towards him. These Metallic Lifeform were all radiating a strong Life Divine Power, and without a doubt, they were from the Edric Clan.
"It seems like we've stirred up a hornet's nest..." Andrew shook his head and urged Pusluo to hurry on his way.
The Golden Dragon Metallic Lifeform resembled a Dragon, traversing the winding mountain range. Soon after, Andrew and his companions, who were among the Metallic Lifeform, could see towering peaks reaching into the clouds ahead.
"This must be the Skyrite Mountains. No wonder it's the stronghold of the Four Divine Beasts Clan. Huh, they've actually caught up with us." As Andrew saw the Skyrite Mountains, he also noticed the Edric Clan's pursuers behind him. He thought for a moment, then ordered Pusluo to continue forward, while he himself flew out of the Metallic Lifeform.
