Cultivation Online novel Chapter 879

Chapter 879 - How Confident Are You?

Five minutes after the Manager took back the lead, they arrived at the peak of the Dragon Spiral Mountain.

Yuan immediately walked to the cave and stood in front of it.

"Did something happen on your way here? You're late." The Lord's voice resounded from deep within the cave a moment later.

"Not really. I wanted to try cracking the formation that is protecting this place." Yuan said with a calm smile.

The Lord was surprised by his words and couldn't find any words for a good moment.

"Hahaha!" He suddenly started laughing.

"So you found the formation, huh? Not bad! Not bad at all!"

After getting a good laugh, the Lord continued, "So, what business do you have with me— with the demons?"

"It's nothing that important, but it's about time I deal with those pests. It doesn't feel good knowing that you're living so close to demons, you know? It's like living in a house with the knowledge that there are insects dwelling in your basement. It makes my skin crawl just thinking about it." Yuan said.

"..."

The Lord didn't immediately respond, but he could tell that something had changed about Yuan, who appeared to be a totally different person right now.

"You say you want to deal with them, but how are you going to achieve that?" The Lord asked a moment later.

"It's simple. I will drag them out of the mountain and deal with them one by one. After all, there's no reason why we should wait for them to break out of their seal. The best time to strike is when they're sealed and unable to defend themselves."

"That is an interesting but reckless plan. How confident are you? Can you say with certainty that you can defeat the demons at your current state without any troubles?"

"Yes, I can, and I won't be fighting them myself. The Demon Sealing Faction will also be there."

"How daring… and risky." The Lord said in a pondering voice.

"They will eventually break out of their seals, and that day is not far in the future. We can train until we collapse everyday until they break out of their seal, but I doubt it would make that much of a difference."

"While there is truth in your words, I don't know if I can completely trust you. What if you fail to kill the demons and they destroy my precious mountain?"

"If you don't trust my abilities, then why did you even ask me to deal with your demon problem?" Yuan said as he calmly stared into the pitch-black cave.

"This and that are two different matters. You're being impatient right now, and you're acting differently than usual. I don't know if I can trust you in your current state." The Lord said.

Yuan sighed after hearing the Lord's words.

"Fine. Then you can find someone else to deal with the demons. The Demon Sealing Faction will move out of the Dragon Spiral Mountain as soon as possible since I won't be able to fulfill your request."

And without waiting for the Lord's response, Yuan turned around and began walking away.

"You insolent brat!" The Manager shouted at him.
