Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 80: The Heavenly Sky Kingdom and Four Great Sects

The Heavenly Sky Kingdom itself had quite a few Nascent Soul experts stationed at the border at the moment, but even with the new reinforcements being sent over to help by the Seven Fates and Spring Flower Sect, they still had way less experts present compared to the Azure Sky Kingdom…

In the end the size and strength of the Azure Sky Kingdom had increased by quite a bit recently and they had absorbed a few nearby territories, strengthening them even further, there had even been a rumour that the old ancestor of the Azure Sky Kingdom had reached the Half-Step Domain Lord Realm…

Not really that the rumour was something unique, as all the nearby kingdoms ancestors had a similar rumour surrounding them all the time…

The difference between the Azure Sky Kingdoms ancestor and the rest, was that he had personally appeared and apparently beaten up another kingdoms Peak Nascent Soul Realm Ancestor! At least, that was the rumour going around at the moment.

As Wang Lan and the rest of the experts from the four great sects exited the small meeting place, they all hastily made their way over towards a luxurious tent with two Peak Core Formation Realm experts guarding the entrance.

"Ah, have your four sects come to an agreement in regard to how many people you will send over to assist the border?" As they entered the room, a middle-aged man in a military uniform asked as he only slightly raised his brows upon seeing the four of them enter the tent. Not moving his gaze away from a few papers on the table in front of him.

"Yes, we will send another four people over in total to match with the Azure Sky Kingdoms new arrivals." Before Wang Lan could say anything to the clearly rude behaviour of the middle-aged man, the elderly expert from the Seven Fates Sect answered as he quietly motioned for Wang Lan and the rest not to respond to the middle-aged man's rude behaviour.

"Good, you may leave! Be ready if anything happens and the Heavenly Sky Kingdom needs you!" Waving all four of them out with a commanding and slightly disdainful tone of voice, the middle-aged man returned to looking at a few maps and papers of the Azure Sky Kingdoms troop movements.

…

"That damn bastard! How come the Heavenly Sky Kingdoms attitude is getting worse and worse by the day!?" The one who erupted in anger the moment they had made some distance between themselves and the luxurious tent was not Wang Lan nor the elder from the Raging Flame Sect. Instead, it was the Seventh Flower from the Spring Flower Sect!

""…""

Both Wang Lan and the elder of the Raging Flame Sect stared a bit speechlessly at each other as they were both about to erupt just like the Seventh Flower had done, just that neither of them had expected for her of all people to erupt in anger like that.

"Haha, easy now little flower. The Heavenly Sky Kingdom has indeed been getting worse and worse with handling our sects, it is most likely because we have grown a little too strong for them lately and they are getting worried that we band together and overthrow them! For now, just endure, they won't dare do anything, especially with the Azure Sky Kingdom knocking at the front door." The elderly man from the Seven Fates Sect just laughed a bit as he explained the reason for the Heavenly Sky Kingdoms behaviour.

"… Hah… Indeed, we have been getting a little too strong lately for the Heavenly Sky Kingdom, at the moment our sects each control a corner of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom… The land they control themselves is only the centre region of the kingdom and a few other strategically important places…" Sighing a little when he thought about it, Wang Lan could see how it must feel for the Heavenly Sky Kingdom.

Compared to the Azure Sky Kingdom's Imperial Family, who had full control of the entire country and the sects within. The Imperial Family of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom barely controlled 20% of their territory, with the rest being under one of the four great sects or other strong sects.

The only reason why the Heavenly Sky Kingdom's Imperial Family could still claim that they ruled was due to the intimidation of their old ancestor, if the four great sects Nascent Soul experts truly united together, the Heavenly Sky Kingdoms Imperial Family would have less Nascent Soul experts on their side…

In the end, they could only allow the sects to grow within their territory!

This was quite a unique situation as the Ewaria Continent was mostly ruled by royal clans or imperial families. Sects mostly just existed under an imperial family and was more like a vassal to the state compared to a sect purely focused on cultivation.

The Sects being comparable to the Imperial Family of the kingdom they existed in was a unique situation…

"Let's just head back for now and cultivate… Only by improving do we have a chance to improve our situations…" The elderly man from the Seven Fates Sect said as he made his way into a nearby tent to resume cultivating.

The Seventh Flower, Wang Lan and the elder from the Raging Flame Sect all remained silent for a while before they returned back to their own tents to cultivate and wait for something to inevitably happen.

All of them felt the same way in regard to the current situation of most sects around the Ewaria continent, but they simply had no way to do anything about it.

So, what if they managed to overthrow the Heavenly Sky Kingdom… They would still have to deal with the even stronger Sky Empire behind it…

Most of the experts on the Ewaria Continent were from the different Royal Clans or Imperial Families, as they hoarded the most resources. The sects did not have anywhere near as much strength as them and there was no sign of this changing any time soon…
