Chapter 388: Capturing the Red Tiger Sect’s Hostage (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiao Shi had seen the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect on the Red Tiger bloodline recorded in the Bloodline Manual. According to the records, the bloodline of the Red Tiger originated from the bloodline of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect’s Red Tiger.

This also meant there was a high chance that the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect was behind the Red Tiger Totem.

Xiao Shi pondered that if he wanted to explore more information about the Red Tiger lineage, he might have to start with the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. However, he knew too little about the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect at the moment. He had only seen the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect in the bloodline manual.

He knew nothing other than that.

“I have to understand more information related to the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.” Xiao Shi found Guo Chengdao that day. He wanted to see if he had heard of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.

“Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect?” Guo Chengdao pondered. Then, he shook his head. He had never heard of this faction. The previous Patriarch of the Red Tiger Sect had not mentioned this faction either.

As such, Xiao Shi could only look for Cheng Tianhao and plan to ask him about the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect through the Swift Shadow Palace.

In the Wind Shadow City of the Swift Shadow Palace.

The five elders were gathered in the hall of Wind Shadow City for an important meeting. There were only these five elders in the meeting. Usually, even a deacon like Cheng Tianhao was not qualified to participate in such a meeting. “According to the information gathered, the foreign experts from before have basically left Tiandou Province. There shouldn’t be any foreign experts attacking us from now on.” The First Elder of the Swift Shadow Palace, who was sitting at the top, said.

Previously, a Martial Demon Realm expert from a demonic faction had entangled the Martial Demon Realm expert left behind by the lord of the Xingluo Territory to protect them, allowing the other Martial Soul Realm experts to take the opportunity to attack the first-tier factions in the Tiandou Province.

Fortunately, they had withstood the attack of that Martial Soul Realm expert. It did not cause much damage. Now that they knew that there would be no more experts attacking, the other elders heaved a sigh of relief.

These days, they had been on tenterhooks, afraid that they would be attacked by foreign experts again. In the current situation where the Shadow Master was in seclusion, if they were to encounter an attack of that level again, the entire Swift Shadow Palace would most likely end up like the Heaven Scar Pavilion.

“Then, our focus now is mainly on the recovery of the sect and preparations for the reshuffling of the Tiandou Province.” The First Elder of the Swift Shadow Palace looked at everyone. “What do you have in mind?”

The situation in Tiandou Province this time would cause a major change in the situation in Tiandou Province. Especially with the decline of the Heaven Scar Pavilion, they had one less powerful competitor.

The balance between the four first-tier factions would be broken. After this reshuffle, perhaps it would no longer be three parties on the same level, but a situation where one party would dominate.

These three first-tier forces, Swift Shadow Palace, Extreme Fire Sect, Lei Miao Monastery, had suffered varying degrees of losses under the attack of the experts of the demonic path. Next, it would depend on which side lost the least and had the strongest combat strength.

“From the information we have gathered so far, Lei Miao Monastery is the faction that suffered the least losses this time. It will also be the main enemy we will face next.” The Fourth Elder said in a deep voice. “If we want to defeat the Extreme Fire Sect and Leimiao Monastery in the next reshuffle, our current strength is far from enough.”

Although the losses of the Swift Shadow Palace this time were not particularly great, the Shadow Master’s seclusion and the use of the sect’s trump cards caused their overall combat strength to be greatly weakened. It was difficult to resist the Extreme Fire Sect and Leimiao Monastery.

“The most important thing now is to think of a way to increase our combat strength in a short period of time.” The Second Elder also said. “The Shadow Master can no longer fight. We need to find other methods to increase our combat strength.”

The elders fell into deep thought. It was not easy to find a way to increase his combat strength in a short period of time.

“Perhaps… I have a way, but 1 need to verify something first.” The Third Elder of the Swift Shadow Palace said after some thought.

“You know about the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect?” Xiao Shi looked at Cheng Tianhao in surprise. Initially, he wanted Cheng Tianhao to ask around through the Swift Shadow Palace. To think that Cheng Tianhao knew about the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect to begin with.

“I don’t know much.” Cheng Tianhao recalled carefully and said. “The Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect was once the Great Wu Empire’s National Protector Sect. Back when the Great Wu Empire was strong, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect was famous as the Nation’s Protection Sect. It was known as the number one sect on the Tianwu Continent.

“However, after the Great Wu Empire’s imperial power collapsed, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect also fell apart. Many years ago, it had already disappeared from the Tianwu Continent.”

The Great Wu Empire’s Nation’s Protection Sect?

Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat. He did not expect this faction to be related to the Great Wu Empire.

“The Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect’s name is the Four Symbols. Which Four Symbols is it referring to?” Xiao Shi asked.

“I’m not sure about that.” Cheng Tianhao shook his head. “Actually, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect is not a secret. It’s just that it’s been a long time. Martial artists at our level don’t know much about it.”

Xiao Shi nodded. Since he knew that the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect was the Nation’s Protection Sect of the Great Wu Empire back then, it was not difficult to carry out a deeper investigation..
