A World Worth Protecting

u… I hope that you’ll agree to it!”

“Is that so?” Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and spoke with little consideration.

“Does the esteemed fellow Daoist wish for me to aid the Violet Gold New Dao Sect?”

The Sovereign Patriarch wasn’t surprised that Wang Baole had guessed his thoughts.
After all, it would have been impossible for Wang Baole to advance from being an ordinary person to his current position without having intelligence and wisdom that surpassed the average person.

In fact, those had been his thoughts exactly.
He knew very well that the Heavenly Spirit Sect had mounted an attack against the Violet Gold New Dao Sect when they had invaded his sect.
He knew very well how the survival of both sects was dependent on the other.
If the Violet Gold New Dao Sect were to be wiped out, their hopes for surviving this inter-civilizational war would be extinguished as well.

Even though he might seem physically fine, he had exhausted a considerable portion of his cultivation during his earlier fight with the two Planet realm cultivators in order to keep the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s sect lord occupied while inflicting severe damage to the left-hand elder.
He was still up for another fight, but he couldn’t disregard his physical discomfort.
Besides, he was also worried that the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect might attack his sect again should he leave.

That was why the best solution was to let Long Nanzi, the second most powerful person in the sect, lead an army to aid the Violet Gold New Dao Sect.
However, he knew how dangerous the mission was going to be, and he also knew of the past conflict between Long Nanzi and the Violet Gold New Dao Sect.
That was why he hadn’t been forthcoming with his request.

But Wang Baole had spoken his thoughts out loud.
The Sovereign Patriarch took a deep breath and decided not to say anything more.
He cupped his fists again.

Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and considered the matter.
He knew that he had to provide aid.
Trying to fight a war would become harder if the Violet Gold New Dao Sect were to be wiped out.

“So be it!” Wang Baole nodded at that thought.

The Sovereign Patriarch looked up and gave Wang Baole a long, meaningful look when he heard that.
He immediately issued orders for the first legion to follow Wang Baole’s lead.
He didn’t send Daoist Gu Mo away with the legion, though.
The role of commander was given to the butler instead.

He also instructed three mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivators to join the party.
Fairy Ling You was one of the three cultivators.
Some simple arrangements were made swiftly.
Then, Wang Baole’s army and the first legion took off immediately, charging through the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s teleportation portal and rushing in the direction of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect.

Even though the Sovereign Patriarch couldn’t join the mission personally, he had given the butler a small statue.
The power of his avatar had been sealed in the statue.
It might not be equivalent to the true strength of a Planet realm, but its self-destruction would nevertheless unleash some measure of Planet realm power.

He hadn’t hidden his actions from Wang Baole.
Instead, he had handed the statue to the butler in Wang Baole’s presence as a show of his sincerity.

Wang Baole had nodded to himself when he had seen that.
His army and the first legion stepped out of the teleportation portal and into the Divine Eye civilization’s public space.
Upon Wang Baole’s command, the army charged towards the Violet Gold New Dao Sect.

Even though they had saved considerable time with the use of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s teleportation array formation, the journey to their next battleground would still take two hours.

The battleships charged tirelessly through the cosmos, while everyone on board rested.
The previous battle had been intense, and now, they were going to join another battle as reinforcements.
Everyone was tired, both physically and mentally.
Just as Wang Baole was about to settle down for meditation, the butler, for reasons unknown to others, made arrangements for Fairy Ling You to be by Wang Baole’s side…

He gave careful and specific instructions for her to get along with Wang Baole and do her utmost to fulfill his every whim and fancy.

Fairy Ling You kept her silence amidst the sect’s change in attitude towards Wang Baole.
She was a reserved person and wasn’t good at taking the first step when it came to interactions with others.
She stood near Wang Baole awkwardly.
Even Wang Baole began to feel uncomfortable.
Both of them stared at each other for a long time.

“I mean, we’re old friends by now.
Why don’t… you lay down on my lap and rest for a bit?” Wang Baole coughed and tested the waters.

Fairy Ling You had been feeling slightly nervous, and his words made her tense up instantly.
The look on her face shifted, and she couldn’t stop herself from glaring at Wang Baole before turning and walking away.

Wang Baole touched his face and sighed as he stared at Fairy Ling You’s alluring back.

Luckily, she didn’t agree to that.
I wouldn’t know how to turn her down if she did.
There are too many people lusting after my good looks, after all.
What was the butler thinking anyway? Wang Baole coughed awkwardly.
After extending his Divine Sense and ensuring that the area was safe, he narrowed his eyes and raised his right hand.
With a flip of his right hand, he pulled out a storage ring!

It was what he had gotten off the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator during the Flame Patriarch’s mission.
The storage ring that he suspected hid a treasure but that he had been unable to unlock!

Let’s see if I can unlock it now! Anticipation shone in Wang Baole’s eyes.
He unleashed his cultivation and allowed his Divine Sense to rush into the storage ring!
