Chapter 1031: Chapter 507: The Blessing of the Mountain God_2

"Not interested." Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Master Sun.

It turned out that Mr. Archibald was soliciting support for that Sixth Great Realm person. As for this Sixth Great Realm’s lofty ambitions, Master Sun silently nodded in agreement, "What great aspirations.", but it had nothing to do with him.

After speaking for a long time, Mr. Archibald found the person in front of him completely indifferent. Frustrated, he got up and left, slamming the door shut as he went.

Owen Bertram smiled and shook his head. Both this "lord" from the Sixth Great Realm and "strategist" Mr. Archibald still had a lot of growing to do. He didn’t know if they could become more mature in the future, or if they would even have the chance to do so.

Master Sun rested, not fearing any measures the Honored Lord and Mr. Archibald might have against him. After Mr. Archibald left, the Sixth Great Realm soothed him, "This person may have great potential, but he lacks lofty ambitions. Sir, you have done your best, and there’s no need to worry. He simply missed out on a great opportunity."

Mr. Archibald still showed some regret, "This young man is already at the Fourth Great Realm and has promising prospects as a cultivator. If we could have recruited him, he would undoubtedly become a valuable and powerful asset under the Honored Lord’s command. What a pity, what a pity..."

Mr. Archibald had truly put in great effort, but unfortunately, the Honored Lord’s forces were still quite disorganized. Besides the Honored Lord’s respectable Sixth Great Realm power, the strongest were only a few Fourth Great Realm cultivators who were already past their prime and had no room for improvement.

That’s why Mr. Archibald tried so hard to persuade Owen Bertram to join, but Owen simply "didn’t appreciate the opportunity".

Mr. Archibald truly believed that his unrivaled eloquence and debating skills were exceptional. After having suffered a setback with Owen Bertram last night, he was still somewhat unconvinced. The following morning, the inn was bustling with dozens of cultivators surrounding the Honored Lord and eating breakfast together.

When Mr. Archibald saw Owen Bertram coming downstairs, he took the opportunity to promote the greatness of the Honored Lord, based on the conversation around him. Owen found it too noisy and left the inn after paying the bill.

Some people couldn’t help but ask Mr. Archibald, "Sir, we’re about to set off. Can you tell us about Peace Flat?"

After a brief hesitation, Mr. Archibald said, "It’s good to know that Peace Flat isn’t so peaceful. Although I can’t tell you the location just yet, Peace Flat has many former names like Burning Wilds, Lose Life Slope, Never Return Mountain, Fierce Sun Plains, and so on. Even if you were to find it on your own, without the Honored Lord’s protection, you might not be able to endure until the temple is reopened and the Mountain God bestows blessings..."

Owen Bertram, who was about to leave the inn, suddenly turned around and approached the Honored Lord, bowing with clasped hands, "I, a junior, am willing to follow my seniors."

"Hehe!" Mr. Archibald smiled inwardly, very pleased. As expected, he managed to convince Owen through his unrivaled eloquence and persuade him to follow the Honored Lord!

The Honored Lord chuckled, pointing to a seat beside him and said, "Since you’re willing to join, we are all brothers now. Sit down, enjoy your meal, and then we’ll set off."

This was the "future general" that Mr. Archibald had planned for himself, and of course, the Honored Lord naturally treated him with great importance and amicability.

After dozens of cultivators finished eating and drinking, they marched on proudly under the Honored Lord’s leadership. Norton Mountain was located one hundred and forty miles east of the city, almost near the edge of Moss County.

In this world, the further away from cities, the more desolate, impoverished, and dangerous areas become, and Norton Mountain was no exception. Once they left the County Town, Mr. Archibald asked for the Honored Lord’s command token to lead the way.

The cultivators were divided into six teams, with two of them tasked with scouting and opening the path ahead. Owen Bertram was given preferential treatment and placed next to the Honored Lord. He watched coldly as Mr. Archibald demonstrated his talent, quickly organizing the motley crew into a team with some semblance of order and discipline.

Both this master-servant duo were truly talented, and Master Sun suddenly had thoughts about recruiting them to serve under his Horizon Bureau once everything was finished.

But as they were a ragtag group hastily formed, chaos was unavoidable. They encountered several groups of cultivators along their journey, all heading to Norton Mountain in search of the Mountain God’s favors.

The shortcomings of such a disorganized group became apparent as conflicts frequently erupted between their two outer teams and others. In each case, the Honored Lord had to step in and resolve the situation, causing Owen to shake his head in disapproval. It seemed only the Sixth Realm cultivator and Mr. Archibald were worth recruiting. Furthermore, the Sixth Realm cultivator, who acted as the Honored Lord, was not fit to lead his group, as he had to step in and clean up his subordinates’ messes. Was he an Honored Lord or a nanny?

Nevertheless, Mr. Archibald was quite satisfied with the situation, as it allowed the team to witness the Honored Lord’s strength and grow more reliant on and loyal to him.

They traveled quickly and reached Norton Mountain before sunset. Mr. Archibald gathered the group and took the lead. In his hand, he held a Compass Artifact, constantly checking their direction.

Two Ghost Fish floated above the compass, swimming around agilely as it moved. Once they entered Norton Mountain, their path grew more and more remote, startling several wild beasts along the way. Eventually, they arrived at the foot of a pitch-black stone mountain.

Mr. Archibald guided the group around the mountain, and after passing through a dense forest, they found a large crack in the ground, wide enough for a person to walk through.

The two Ghost Fish on the Compass Artifact suddenly flew off, diving into the crack and disappearing in an instant. Mr. Archibald nodded, "This is the place."
