Chapter 809: Chapter 808: Tyler Nash Looking for a Way Out

The infidelity of Lady Yu undoubtedly shook the Mainland as the most explosive gossip, and what’s most important was that the man who likely deflowered Lady Yu might be this year’s rising star, Bryson Campbell.

All about Bryson Campbell had been dug up by the public; this man came from the mundane world, possessing an Immortal Sword, took an Earth Immortal as his master, became king of his own mountain, astonished the city with a single sword strike to save several demon cultivators, and then, after slaying Michael Wolfe, the Sect Master of the Southern Continent’s Tianyuan, along with his two sons and daughter, he insulted the wandering bard Messiah Palmer upon entering the Immortal Mansion and destroyed the Dragon Gate Passage of the Saint Dragon Pavilion, among other things.

One could say that upon his appearance, Bryson Campbell became the focus of the Mainland’s news, carrying with him a legendary aura.

Of course, there were few who praised him, and many who cursed him, for he had offended the poet Messiah Palmer.

"Where is Bryson Campbell?" Koen Zuck was overwhelmed with shame, his face burning. He, a once-in-a-millennium genius and pride of the Mainland, had been cuckolded? This was a slap in the face, so whether it was Bryson Campbell or some other Campbell, he must kill him!

"Bryson Campbell and Miss Qiao, along with a seriously wounded junior, crawled into the ancient city from the previous dynasty below. During the recent earthquake, many places in the ancient city collapsed, and their fate, dead or alive, is unknown!" Arlo Morton actually explained kindly.

However, before Koen Zuck had a chance to speak, he continued, "They might have become a pair of desperate lovebirds, or rather, wild mandarin ducks, haha!" Arlo Morton was clearly trying to infuriate Asher Zuck and Koen Zuck, not paying for the trouble he was causing.

"Humph, Zuck will surely take his head!"

With a "whoosh," as soon as Koen Zuck finished speaking, he dashed down and squeezed through a hole the size of a dog’s burrow.

Even though the area had collapsed, fortunately, there were many entrances; some had only partially caved in, so Koen Zuck was the first to go down.

"Hmm~" As Koen Zuck entered, many people narrowed their eyes, and the four great Earth Immortals exchanged glances.

"Humph, I am going too!" The Blue Water Fairy snorted angrily and then crawled into the dog hole, even causing a cloud of dust to cover her entirely!

"Let’s go down as well, to see the excitement, haha!" Those with lower cultivation levels on the outskirts suddenly became agitated, for everyone knew that a great treasure would emerge here. When a treasure is born, whoever seizes it owns it. Hence, by entering the underground, they were seizing the initiative. Conversely, if they remained on the surface, their chances of obtaining a treasure would diminish, as they had no right to compete with the Earth Immortals for it.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~" One after another, the cultivators, both great and small, rushed down; some entered through the dog hole, while others went to different locations to find their own entrances and squeeze through them.

The underground of the ancient city was labyrinthine with countless corridors, so the treasure could emerge from anywhere.

Moments later, only the five great Earth Immortals remained in the sky, with Tyler Nash the sole person left on the ground. Tyler Nash had been standing there all along and hadn’t spoken again, but his eyes were constantly darting around.

"What’s the deal with Bryson Campbell?" Jonas Hopkins finally had a chance to ask, for he was unaware of what had transpired earlier.

However... no one offered an explanation to Jonas Hopkins, not even Dax Blackwell, who was on good terms with him, remained silent!

"Humph, if you won’t talk, then I will go down and ask myself!" Jonas Hopkins snorted coldly and then followed an opening down.

"What should we do? Are we also going in?" Dario Wolfe was at a loss at that moment. The chance of obtaining a treasure was greatest underground, as one could get a head start. Therefore, if one chose to wait idly, there’s a risk of ending up empty-handed in the end.

"It wouldn’t hurt to take a look inside," said Master Lu with a sinister chuckle.

"Indeed, let’s go in," Master Blackwell nodded and said.

"Go." Arlo Morton spoke and was the first to plunge downward, followed by Dario Wolfe, Dax Blackwell, and Bryson Campbell.

However, just as Bryson Campbell was about to reach the cave entrance, he suddenly stopped, turned back, and frowned, "Little farmer, you should come in with me. The treasure chooses its own master, perhaps you have a chance to obtain it."

"Master, I wish to return to the palace. Following you down will only hold you back, and besides, the bodies of Lonnie Lopez and the others have not been collected; I would like to help to collect their bodies first!" Tyler Nash bowed deeply as he spoke.

"Hoo—" Hearing Tyler Nash’s words, Bryson Campbell took a deep breath and praised, "You have a good heart and filial piety; go ahead."

"Yes, Master, be careful," Tyler Nash said, then bowed deeply to Bryson Campbell.

Bryson Campbell let out a cackle of laughter, then dove into the cave entrance!

And just as Bryson Campbell entered the cave, Tyler Nash took off running. He didn’t head northeast to collect any bodies and he didn’t turn southeast toward Capital City. Instead, he made a break for it toward the southwest, running, leaping, flying, doing whatever it took to move with exceptional speed!

Of course, no one could guess what was on his mind at the moment, perhaps not even Bryson Campbell himself knew why he didn’t return to the city but chose to run instead!

There is an old saying in the common world, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." In this world, the one who understood Yusuf Zuck the best, Tyler Nash believed he was without equal, for the more he despised him, the more he sought to know everything about him; analyzing his character, life, and methods of doing things.

Therefore, Tyler Nash dared to say he understood Yusuf Zuck better than any of Zuck’s women did.

And because he understood Yusuf Zuck, he needed to escape now!

Yusuf Zuck had managed to carve out a chance to live even under the combined forces of four Earth Immortals, and now there had been an earthquake after they went underground. Moreover, the power from the surface was converging towards this area—it was suspicious!

Tyler Nash vaguely guessed that Yusuf Zuck had probably stumbled upon another streak of dog-gone luck, rather than a legendary treasure about to emerge. It was Yusuf Zuck making a commotion, as it had always been with him; after a setback, he would always have a major stroke of good fortune.

And he didn’t believe it was a mere coincidence that an earthquake occurred just as Yusuf Zuck went underground and that power was now gathering here?

What about what Arlo Morton said, that Bryson Campbell couldn’t possibly absorb such strong Power of the Thick Earth, the other Earth Immortals didn’t believe it, but Tyler Nash did!

Therefore, he had to leave. The signs that Zuck, unkillable by a hundred deaths, was about to receive great fortune were there, and there was no need for him to stay any longer. Bryson Campbell had already passed on the secrets of the Divine Skills he had studied all his life to him. Although he had not yet fully achieved Mahayana, nor reached the realm of profound mystery, the techniques were now in his possession. With diligent practice, he would make it.

So, there was no need to continue playing along with Bryson Campbell, first, there was no need, and second, it was very dangerous!

The reason he chose to head southwest into the wasteland was also deliberate. He had gained some secret intelligence in the palace; in the remote southwestern borderlands, there were human smugglers. These smugglers trafficked human essentials like fine rice, silk, cooking oil, salt, and metal tools into the wasteland, establishing commercial ties with the Demon Cultivators.

After all, the Demon Cultivators needed food and drink, clothing when in human form, and they too desired luxuries. As a result, an unwritten rule had emerged: when human smugglers entered the western wasteland, the Demon Cultivators would not hunt them but treat them as friends instead.

Having been in the palace for some time and now a disciple of Bryson Campbell, he had long since arranged a way out for himself in secret. He had arranged for people to join the smugglers’ group. Thus, using the smuggler’s identity, he planned to head west, trading with the Demon Cultivators for a trove of treasures to aid his cultivation. He also firmly believed that Saint Dragon Empire was not the only realm in this world, so he planned to travel far, very far away!
