Chapter 1692: Chapter 612: The Happy Beginning of Master Oswald_2
Sullivan knew very well that this wasn’t an exaggeration. Master Burgess was already very dissatisfied with him. If he killed the people in front of him, regardless of what excuses he gave to Master Oswald, he would face deadly Immortal Thunder!
Master Oswald might not even listen to his explanation and just directly attack him with thunder.
Choking back the anger, Sullivan coldly said, "Finish Master Burgess’s mission properly, or neither of us will survive."
Owen Bertram laughed loudly and pointed at him, "I’ll show you what power and influence are!"
Owen Bertram took him back to the Summit Metropolitan Office. With one order, the entire Great Wu dynasty began searching for the inheritors of those ancient sects for Owen Bertram.
Owen Bertram’s sudden "defection" to Master Oswald was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. After interrogating the Old Witch about the information regarding the agents of the Heaven Realm in the Eight Desolations World and the mission to exterminate the Terrestrial Gods, Owen Bertram had everyone put more effort into investigating the matter, as it was an excellent opportunity!
Completing Master Oswald’s "loyalty test" would not take much time for him, but it would be enough to show his worth and demonstrate his "loyalty."
As expected, within two days, information from all over arrived and Owen Bertram took Sullivan to the Copper Gorge Extinction Domain. Sullivan offered incense to Master Burgess, inviting his arrival.
After offering his respects, Owen Bertram unfolded a jade slip and reported to Master Burgess, "The four ancient sects you asked me to find have been investigated. Three of them have been completely severed, but I still found the remains of their mountain gates. The inheritances of two of them have been destroyed with no trace left; however, there is still a Taoist Seal Bead in one of the ruins. If Master is interested, I can restart this sect. I could guarantee that there would be at least six talented children studying the Taoist Seal Bead, and within three hundred years, this inheritance could flourish once again."
"There is only one ancient sect with living descendants in the world, and there are only seven of them left. Their situation is very difficult. I have already ordered my subordinates to give them protection. As for their arrangements, just give the word, and I will make sure it’s done."
Owen Bertram spoke quickly and clearly, detailing everything about the four ancient sects, even including when the three major sects that had been obliterated disappeared from the Eight Desolations World in great detail.
Master Oswald asked Sullivan, "Is what he said true?"
After hesitating for a moment, Sullivan honestly replied, "It’s true." Master Oswald scolded him, "Look at his efficiency, then look at yours!" Sullivan knelt down and apologized, and Master Oswald impatiently said, "Get out of the way."
But that was it—Sullivan wasn’t punished with Immortal Thunder.
He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his previous sin was finally pardoned.
Master Oswald was quite satisfied with Owen Bertram, "Besides these four sects, there are some other matters I want you to investigate. However, since you have a powerful force under your command, you can leave that to them. I have another task for you."
"Your orders, Master."
Master Oswald then spoke about the Terrestrial Gods matter. Owen Bertram saluted and said, "I obey your orders. However, there is something I am not sure should be said or not."
Master Oswald snorted, "Stop beating around the bush, just say it!"
"Understood. What I wanted to say is that for the Master’s sake, not all the Terrestrial Gods can be killed—at least not quickly." Owen Bertram said just that and stopped, letting Master Oswald figure out the rest for himself.
Master Oswald thought for a moment and understood before secretly thinking about why Owen Bertram had achieved such a high position in the Lower Realm. He indeed had various means. Was it just an excuse to enjoy the adulation for a few more days before completing the task and returning to his previous state of being overlooked?
If the task is completed quickly, the merit would seem smaller in the eyes of the other Immortal Venerables...
Meanwhile, Sullivan secretly cursed in his heart, "How cunning and sly! When I failed to complete the task, why couldn’t I think of this? In fact, I just couldn’t find the Terrestrial Gods for a while. But in Owen Bertram’s words, it was changed into a consideration for the Master. In my case, it was just incompetence and lack of ability..."
Master Oswald remained noncommittal about Owen Bertram’s "suggestion," only saying, "Do your job well."
"I obey, Master."
Master Oswald intended to give Owen Bertram a divine writing talisman to communicate directly, as he had passed the initial loyalty test. However, when his finger, thick as a carrot, almost drew the talisman, he changed his mind, waved his hand to dissipate it, and ordered Sullivan, "From now on, you will follow Owen Bertram. He will be the main decision-maker, and you will be the assistant. Understood?"
"Understood." Sullivan was frustrated, but Master Oswald had already left.
As Owen Bertram and Sullivan left the Copper Gorge Extinction Domain, Owen Bertram suddenly chuckled and asked, "Do you think Master still doesn’t trust me? Although you are my assistant in name, you have the means to communicate directly with him. Is it possible that he wants you to supervise me?"
Sullivan was indeed pondering this problem during their journey, but he didn’t expect Owen Bertram to see through him at a glance! He replied arrogantly, "As long as you understand, work diligently for the Master in the future and don’t have any cunning schemes. Naturally, I won’t give you any trouble either."
