CHAPTER 2049: CHAPTER 2049: MY NAME IS MAXIMUS LEE!

"As for Hall Master Watson... logically, there shouldn’t be an issue. But why do I have a feeling of anxiety? I can’t shake the feeling that something might happen..."

Wyatt Barnes had experienced this feeling of ’anxiety’ before.

In the past, every time he felt this way, something did happen.

Wyatt never imagined that Oliver Watson, who was supposed to go to the Mansion of Azure Clouds in the Martial Dao Sacred Land’s Lower Domain to relay a message, would unexpectedly be teleported to the ’Land of Exile’.

And because Oliver Watson failed to deliver the message in time, the Mansion of Azure Clouds did not receive the warning in advance...

Now, Maximus Lee was leading a group towards the Mansion of Azure Clouds, getting closer and closer.

The people in the Mansion of Azure Clouds were completely unaware of this.

Almost simultaneously, in the ’North Territory’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, a figure cloaked entirely in a black robe stood before a ’cross-domain teleportation array’.

At his feet lay three children, appearing about six or seven years old.

Two little girls and one little boy.

One little girl wore ’golden clothes’, while the other wore ’white clothes’, with cherubic faces, looking very adorable.

As for the little boy, he was dressed in ’black clothes’.

Compared to the person cloaked in an all-covering black robe, the little boy’s black clothes did not hide his face, revealing his small head with a face that appeared both cool and cute.

If Wyatt Barnes were here, he would instantly recognize:

The two little girls and one little boy lying on the ground, obviously passed out, were none other than his old companions, the Little Gold Mouse and the two little pythons transformed into human forms.

Little Gold, Little White, Little Black.

"I wonder what old Destiny was thinking, having me ’steal’ these three little ones while Karina Hanson wasn’t paying attention, and then throw them back into the ’Lower Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land..."

Suddenly, the figure in the black robe spoke, with a very androgynous voice, neither male nor female, indistinguishable.

"If that girl finds out about this, I’m definitely in trouble!"

The androgynous voice carried a slight tone of discontent towards the end.

This person in the black robe was precisely the contemporary heir of the Shadow Lineage among the Four Symbols of the Seven Terminating Sect:

Case Moon!

The three little ones who came with Karina Hanson to the ’Upper Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land were quietly ’stolen’ by him after knocking them out one by one.

He did this because Elder Destiny of the Heavenly Lineage of the Seven Terminating Sect had instructed him in advance:

To find an opportunity when Karina Hanson couldn’t discover them, to secretly steal the three little ones, and throw them back into the ’Lower Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

According to Elder Destiny:

He vaguely glimpsed Destiny’s secrets, foreseeing a ’transformation’ for the three little ones in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land. However, he couldn’t explain what the transformation would be.

Fearing that Karina Hanson would stop him, Elder Destiny instructed Case Moon to secretly ’steal’ the three little ones and throw them back into the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

Moreover, they couldn’t be sent back to the ’Emerald Shore Han Mansion’ or ’Mansion of Azure Clouds’.

Yesterday, Case Moon finally found an opportunity and successfully ’stole’ the three little ones.

"You three, don’t blame me... if you must blame someone, blame that old man Destiny! He’s the one who had me ’steal’ you and throw you back into the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land to fend for yourselves!"

Shaking his head, Case Moon lifted the three little ones with a wave of his hand.

In the next moment, he flew into the ’cross-domain teleportation array’.

The teleportation array flashed, and Case Moon, along with the three little ones, vanished.

About half an hour later, in the ’East Domain’ of the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, Case Moon returned from the Lower Domain, confirmed his direction, and headed back towards the North Territory.

When Case Moon left the Upper Domain, he had the three little ones with him.

But upon returning, he was alone!

The Land of Exile, known among the Demon Race as the ’Exile Plane’.

The Cow Demon Clan, in the Exile Plane, was a large tribe, with countless strong members. Over the years, they had tried everything to slaughter their way back into the ’Holy Domain Plane’, yet always failed to find an opportunity.

The Holy Domain Plane refers to the plane including the Lower Domain, Upper Domain, and even the three major mortal continents.

The Cow Demon Clan’s base, covering a vast area, had a spacious square in its center.

And today, the square was filled with people.

No!

It should be said, filled with ’demons’, Cow Demons!

The members of the Cow Demon Clan have very distinct features, human bodies with bull heads. Apart from their bodies, other aspects, including intelligence, are no different from the normal humans of the ’Holy Domain Plane’.

And now, a group of Cow Demon Clan members was gathered in the square, staring at a human tied up there with a ’five flower knot’.

Yes, a human!

A human rarely seen in the ’Exile Plane’!

"Is this a human?"

"It should be... this human looks quite like us, with two hands and two feet."

"Like? In what way! Our Cow Demon Clan isn’t this short, and he’s so fair-skinned... too ugly! Look at our dark and healthy skin, this is a warrior’s skin!"

"Exactly! At first glance, he’s so pale. No wonder he was captured by our Cow Demon Clan warriors as a ’soft target’."

"Humans, too weak!"

...

The members of the Cow Demon clan were almost all seeing humans for the first time. Looking at the human tied up at the center of the plaza, they gestured and discussed fervently.

In the past, Oliver Watson would never have dreamed that he would one day become an ’exhibit’!

Looking at the group of ’monsters’ with human bodies and cow heads, towering over him, Oliver Watson felt his scalp tingle.

Because he already knew the identity of these monsters:

A race from the Demon Race in the Land of Exile, the Cow Demon clan!

In the ancient texts he had read in the White Tiger Altar, one of the Four Symbols Altars in the Fire Worship Sect, there were records about the ’Cow Demon clan’ in the Demon Race.

The Cow Demon clan is born to be warriors, towering in stature, skilled in close combat!

During the ’Era of Human Demons’, the Cow Demon clan was one of the vanguards in the human-demon war, slaughtering countless humans from our plane, they could be said to be the ’nemesis’ of humans.

Oliver Watson never expected that he would one day meet the ’Cow Demon clan’ from the Demon Race in such a manner.

Now, he had also become a ’captive’ of the Cow Demon clan!

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Oliver Watson noticed that a group of ’Cow Demons’ surrounding him in the eastern direction all moved aside as a low growl sounded from outside.

Immediately, Oliver Watson saw the two Cow Demons who had captured him.

However, these two Cow Demons were now escorting a mountain-like Cow Demon towards his direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

...

This Cow Demon was seven or eight meters tall, two or three times taller than an average Cow Demon. Its enormous body caused the ground to tremble with each step.

It stepped slowly towards Oliver Watson, and the closer it got, the more Oliver Watson felt vibrations akin to ’earthquake’.

As it appeared, a group of Cow Demons in the plaza fell silent, looking at this significantly larger Cow Demon with respect.

"Indeed, it’s a human!"

The mountain-like Cow Demon stopped not far in front of Oliver Watson, overlooking him, and when it spoke, its voice was like thunder, causing Oliver Watson’s eardrums to ache.

"So strong!"

At this moment, Oliver Watson could clearly perceive the pressure from the Cow Demon in front of him, pressing him until he could hardly breathe.

And this was without the Cow Demon intentionally exerting pressure on him!

It was evident how strong and terrifying this Cow Demon was!

"Tenth Elder, he is the human we discovered outside."

At the same time, the two Cow Demons following this one spoke, their tone full of respect.

"Tenth Elder?!"

Oliver Watson’s pupils contracted, showing an appalled expression.

As far as he knew, the strongest in the Cow Demon clan was the Clan Chief.

Under the Clan Chief were the ten elders!

Back then, in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, countless human experts died at the hands of these eleven Cow Demon experts!

Of course, he also knew that the eleven strong Cow Demons from back then were not the current Clan Chief and ten elders of the Cow Demon clan... Time flies, and even the Demon Race has a time of demise!

The powerful Demons who attain immortality will ascend to the ’Many Heavens Plane’.

In this regard, the ’Exiled Plane’ and the ’Holy Domain Plane’ are alike.

"Correct! You have contributed greatly... Soon I will go to the Clan Chief to request rewards for you!"

The Cow Demon referred to as the ’Tenth Elder’ spoke again, its voice still thunderous.

Having prepared, Oliver Watson promptly mobilized Holy Power to protect his ears, preventing his eardrums from aching like before.

And as the Cow Demon clan’s ’Tenth Elder’ looked at Oliver Watson with interest...

The Holy Domain Plane, in the Lower Domain of Martial Dao Sacred Land, the quasi-third-rate power ’Mansion of Azure Clouds’, was also welcoming a group of uninvited guests.

This group of unwelcome guests invaded Mansion of Azure Clouds, wherever they went, all Blackarmor Army guards trying to stop them were killed...

Whether it was regular Blackarmor guards, centurions, or centurions, none were a match for the intruders!

The intruders were not alone; they were led by an elder, accompanied by a group.

And the ones attacking were not the leading elder, but the people following him.

The followers were so terrifying, it was clear that the leading elder must be even more terrifying...

"Who... are you people?"

Facing the aggressive group, a group of Blackarmor Army guards were nearly scared witless, continuously retreating until they neared the ’Main Mansion’ of Mansion of Azure Clouds.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

And at this moment, the aggressive group halted their steps as the leading elder did, all quickly stopping as well.

The leading elder glanced indifferently at the Blackarmor Army guards in front.

"I am ’Maximus Lee’!"
