Chapter 2938: More Harm Than Good

"We know their appearances, as long as we find out their identities, that’s enough," Carradine said coldly.

Carson Flores retorted, "If they came to us openly and didn’t kill to silence you, clearly they aren’t afraid of being seen by you. Do you think their appearance is their real one, or even the magical treasure they used is that uniquely identifiable life-bound magic treasure?"

Carradine froze, speechless.

Indeed, since they targeted Carson Flores, they must know he could report to the Hall Master, and surely wouldn’t leave any clues that would cause endless trouble down the line.

"Then what should we do? Are we just going to take this suffering in silence?"

Carson Flores smiled faintly, "It’s just a small matter, don’t worry about it."

Carradine looked at Carson Flores’ calm demeanor, admiringly.

The Sect Master is so composed!

These two came to kill him, yet he wasn’t agitated at all and remained so calm.

Perhaps he’s experienced such things many times, finding them no longer surprising?

Carradine gritted his teeth, "Although the Sect Master was unharmed, being schemed against so easily feels too disadvantageous."

Carson Flores smiled gently and reassured, "Rest assured, I have ways to find out who sent them. But right now, the main focus is to enhance our strength, not engage in pointless conflict."

"They targeted me today, but I’ll keep the scorecards; we’ll settle it later and none will escape!"

Carradine’s eyes lit up, "The Sect Master has a way to find out who sent them?"

Carson Flores chuckled, nodding, but didn’t elaborate further, "Let’s go, keep moving!"

Seeing Carson Flores reluctance to explain, Carradine, though curious, refrained from further questioning.

Since the Sect Master says there’s a way, there surely is!

Just follow the Sect Master’s lead!

Though not having spent much time with Carson Flores, Carradine already had inexplicable confidence in him.

Though the Sect Master is young, he truly has real ability, seemingly much more formidable than he appears?

"Great! Sect Master, when you seek revenge, make sure you take us with you!"

Carson Flores laughed nonchalantly, "Sure!"

After Carson Flores and Carradine left, the middle-aged man who had intercepted them earlier swept in from the sky, hovering, his face puzzled.

"Where are they? Why can’t I sense them anymore?"

The middle-aged man closed his eyes, trying hard to sense, yet still in vain.

"Could that guy have killed Carson Flores and ran back to report success first?"

Anger surfaced on the middle-aged man’s face, which then morphed into deep confusion.

"Impossible. Mr. James isn’t so shallow-sighted and wouldn’t do something so easily exposed. Originally, it was something we did together, he definitely won’t hog the glory..."

"But where did they go? Could it be the kid ran so fast, both pursued and escaped out of sensing range?"

"Shouldn’t be. That kid’s capabilities aren’t great. How could he outrun Mr. James, for whom killing him is merely a matter of a wave?"

"Could something unexpected have happened?"

Anxiety rose in the middle-aged man’s mind, then he reassured himself, such disparity in capabilities, how could anything unpredicted occur?

If the kid truly had a trick, why not deploy it directly, instead of fleeing?

It must be something unplanned that led to the current inability to sense Mr. James.

Forget it, head back first!

No matter, once Mr. James finishes, lacking my presence, he naturally will head back.

Turning, the middle-aged man transformed into a long rainbow, heading towards the War God Mansion.

Days later, the middle-aged man returned to his home, inquired around, and was shocked.

Mr. James has yet to return!

Unease in the man’s heart surged again, like a cloud shadowing his mind.

Wait a bit longer!

Even after waiting for three more days, the trace of Mr. James remained absent, as if he vanished off the earth!

The man was entirely stunned.

Mr. James surely encountered something!

If not, he wouldn’t inexplicably vanish, I wouldn’t lose contact, and so much time having passed, he’d have returned swiftly because Young Master Compton awaits good news.

Suddenly thinking, Mr. James disappeared, then what about Carson Flores?

Is he dead?

If he’s deceased, that indicates Mr. James succeeded. If not, it naturally suggests Mr. James failed; indeed, Mr. James’ disappearance may relate to Carson Flores.

"Investigate!"

The man immediately took action, sparing no small expense to transmit messages through Teleportation Array, asking a friend in the vicinity of Majestic Sect for news on Sect Master Carson Flores.

After awaiting two days, the news came.

After reading, the man’s face changed dramatically.

Sect Master Carson Flores had safely returned to Majestic Sect alongside Enforcement Hall Master Carradine!

Gripping his teeth, the man set out.

In a secluded room, Taliesin Compton looked at the man across, blustering in color, "You two Superior Grade Great Land Primordial Immortals actually failed, and one disappeared?"

The man smiled wryly, "Yes, Carson Flores returned to Majestic Sect, and yet Mr. James hasn’t come back, without a single trace, as if he vanished into thin air. I still haven’t figured out what the hell happened."

Taliesin Compton’s eyes blazed with anger, "Could your Mr. James, having taken something valuable from Carson Flores, simply run off?"

The man paused momentarily, not having entertained this possibility.

"Couldn’t be?"

Taliesin Compton snapped angrily, "Then tell me how a Superior Grade Great Land Primordial Immortal hunting a Supreme Immortal results in the Supreme Immortal returning safely while the Superior Grade Primordial Immortal disappears?"

The man was rendered speechless, indeed, how did he just vanish?

That was a Superior Grade Great Land Primordial Immortal!

Even against a Peak Great Land True Immortal, unable to win, he could flee, so how could he just disappear soundlessly?

Who could silently kill or capture a Superior Grade Great Land Primordial Immortal?

Quasi-Saint?

With Carson Flores merely a Supreme Immortal, exposed nowhere, where would he get help from a Quasi-Saint?

Does he have such influence?

Taliesin Compton said coldly, "Carson Flores made achievements in Bitter Sea Immortal Domain, reportedly garnering a reward to make anyone envious. Perhaps Carson Flores used this reward as bait, making Mr. James relent in killing him, then took the goods and disappeared willingly..."

Though finding this unlikely, Taliesin Compton’s words are logical and irrefutable, as otherwise, how to explain Carson Flores unharmed yet Mr. James vanished?

The man clenched his teeth, "I’ll go to Majestic Sect again, find a chance to act!"

Taliesin Compton sneered, "Majestic Sect is filled with Great Land Immortals; you think you can strike at will? Are you not considering what if caught and exposed everything?"

The man grinned, "Young Master Compton didn’t instruct us; we acted upon hearing your grievances, hence trying to seek justice for you..."

Taliesin Compton threw a cold glance at the man, "Will others believe such? Forget it. For now, let it be as if nothing happened; leave now!"

The man blinked, acting like nothing happened?

What about the disappeared Mr. James?
