Heinrik had heard that the immortal’s tomb was in the polar region and it was abundant with treasures. This was what lured the Five Great Sects to come.
Swayed by the allure of the treasure and boosted by his own increased strength, Lauden had nothing to fear. Thus, he decided to join in.
“Mr. Delacroix, how could I possibly deceive you? We have mobilized so many people and journeyed such a long distance. If I were to lie, how could I continue to stay within the Five Great Sects in the future? I heard quite some time ago that the local sects from around here have already made their way to the polar region. We must be the last ones to arrive. However, the polar region is vast. Finding the exact location of the immortal’s tomb won’t be easy,” Heinrik quickly said.
“Let’s pick up our pace then and try to avoid any conflicts with people from other sects and prestigious families. Also, try your best to avoid encounters with the Demonic Cultivators. After all, this is the southern region, where Demonic Cultivators are aplenty,” Lauden advised the crowd.
Everyone nodded. They were here to hunt for treasures and not to take lives.
As long as there were no conflicts of interest, there was no need for any physical confrontation.
Lauden took the lead, scouting the path ahead, while Heinrik tagged along behind, exchanging glances with the leaders of Celestial Moon Sect and Celestial Sun Sect, Stuart and Edward respectively.
Noticing that, the leader of Celestial Dawn Sect, Keelan, subtly lowered his head, as if he hadn’t seen anything at all. He seemed to be intimidated by them.
Heinrik had lured Lauden over, not for the sake of treasures, but because they had already harbored intentions to kill him.
Lauden’s advancement to Ninth Level Tribulator had also instilled a heightened sense of urgency in them.
Originally, their disagreement with Lauden was due to the matter concerning Jared.
But now Lauden had already advanced to Ninth Level Tribulator. If he managed to defeat them all and drive them out of the Five Great Sects, they would be utterly helpless.
Thus, Heinrik harbored the intent to seize the upper hand, which resulted in him tricking Lauden into the polar region. This place was far from the headquarters of the Five Great Sects and was extremely secluded.
This was indeed the perfect opportunity to make a move against Lauden.
Keelan of Celestial Dawn Sect, who had been standing with Lauden, chose to remain silent at this moment.
