Chapter - 3463

"If you want to take me out, tonight is undoubtedly the best opportunity. Kill me, take my heaven's energy, and steal my cultivation. I won't resist."

With that, she began absorbing the heaven's energy.

Zeke's face darkened. Ignoring her words, he walked to the doorway of the small house and looked at the scenery outside, his lips twitching occasionally.

"What a disaster!"

He stomped his foot.

It was clear that she had fallen for him!

In the outside world, within a vast underground base camp, a beautiful temporary building was erected.

At this moment, two extremely terrifying auras fluctuated inside the building.

"Aretta, it's just a disciple who was kidnapped. Is there any need for such a reaction? And you, Elvis, and the rest, your captain is likely dead by now. Is it necessary to come and plead with me?"

A tall, authoritative man in a black Nimbus Sect robe was shouting at a woman in a pink dress in front of him.

That woman was Aretta, with Elvis, Anvindr, and others from Zeke's previous team standing behind her. Morvran's team was also among them.

"Bolton, you are part of Nimbus Sect after all. Our cooperation is to stop the demonic cultivators from collecting more petals of the Demonic Lotus and to rescue Zeke," Aretta said calmly.

"Although his cultivation is weak compared to ours, he is a role model to us orthodox cultivators. If we unite, we can surely save him!"

"That's not the point!" Bolton waved his hand, his expression cold. "Aretta, you've angered Orion from the Northern Martial House. He's still seeking revenge. When will you return the heaven's energy you stole from him? Don't bring trouble to us. Then we can discuss cooperation. Otherwise, please leave."

"When did I steal it?" Aretta's tone turned icy. "I just didn't like him."

"You didn't like him?" Bolton's face darkened. "You didn't like him, so you stole his stuff. I ran into him recently, and he fought me in a fit of rage. That guy holds grudges like no other. I can't stand him!"

Aretta sneered, "Bolton, why bother with him? If Nimbus Sect unites, do you think we can't defeat him? In the Secret Realm of Mount Kush, does he dare kill us top prodigies?"

Indeed, within the Secret Realm of Mount Kush, despite internal conflicts among the righteous and orthodox sects, killing top prodigies like them was forbidden. Otherwise, the conflict between the sects would be irreconcilable.

So, Aretta didn't care at all.

She did steal it, and she didn't care what Orion thought.

"Aretta, although Nimbus Sect detests evil, Orion's aura is somewhat like that of a demonic cultivator. But still..."

Bolton scratched his head vigorously, feeling helpless. "But stealing his heaven's energy was a bit much. Besides, you can find such heaven's energy every two or three days. Return it to him. Otherwise, he won't give up with his temper."

"Assist me in rescuing Zeke, and I will do it," Aretta said calmly.

"Zeke again!" Bolton frowned. "Is he really that important?"

Aretta's tone turned colder. "Nimbus Sect and demonic cultivators are mortal enemies. No matter who it is, we must save them."

Upon hearing this, Bolton looked conflicted.

He wasn't against fighting demonic cultivators. But whether they could find Vesper was another matter. Even if they did, with the nature of demonic cultivators, they would flee if they couldn't win. Without a plan, capturing them and saving anyone was nearly impossible.

Moreover, the enemy was hidden while they were in the open.

The exact strength of the demonic cultivators was still unknown.

The priority wasn't to save Zeke but to understand their true strength.

However, they were undoubtedly formidable.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be after the Demonic Lotus. It might not just be Vesper involved.

"Give me the red formation flags!" Bolton demanded, not answering Aretta's question.
