Chapter 441: Do Me a Favor

“Victor.”

As the voice was transmitted, Victor turned around, only to find the Three-legged Golden Crow being unprecedentedly calm. It lowered its voice and spoke to Victor with a pleading voice.

“Can you please save this group of beasts, even if it’s to help them escape…”

Victor had never felt that such seriousness from the Three-legged Golden Crow as if the group of beasts that were taught and beaten by humans was itself.

Perhaps the Three-legged Golden Crow’s voice sounded unusually calm, but Victor could still hear the anger hidden in its calm voice. It was like a volcano that had not reached its critical point yet. Every moment was a preparation for the eruption in the future!

“Don’t worry, I will save them. If not, I will also free them.”

“Thank you, Victor. I can see it in their eyes. They would rather die from the humiliation they’re suffering now!”

Victor looked at the Three-legged Golden Crow, whose body was trembling in anger like a sieve, and could not help but sigh.

Even demonic beasts would feel unjust when seeing their own kind being treated unfairly. What about humans?

They would only kill each other.

At that moment, Victor felt very sad.

However, this emotion did not last long. When he came back to his senses, he was already in front of a tall woman.

“You’re the one who’s going to participate in the Battle of the Generals? Tell me your name.”

“Before asking others to tell you their names, shouldn’t you tell me your name?”

Facing the tall woman’s questioning, Victor was unmoved. He did not show the slightest bit of servility.

“Oh? Interesting, interesting. I am the altar master of the Demon Slaying Division, Feng Lian. Then, what is your name?” Feeling powerless against Victor, the woman did not feel angry. Instead, she became quite interested in Victor.

“So it’s the altar master. Forgive me for not recognizing you. My name is Zhang Er. I’m in the core formation realm. My purpose for coming here is very simple. It’s to become a battle general. If possible, I want to become the altar master.”

“Become the altar master? Hehe, you’re quite ambitious.”

“If people don’t have dreams, what’s the difference between them and salted fish? Moreover, the condition to become the altar master is to advance to the nascent soul realm. I’m confident that I can advance to the nascent soul realm within three years.”

“Three years? But you’re only at the intermediate stage of the core formation realm, now. Hehe, with your strength, you might not even be able to become a battle general.”

“Does my lord have so little confidence in me? My lord, why don’t we make a bet?”

“Oh? What bet?”

“If I’m able to become a battle general this time, my lord will do her best to nurture me into a nascent soul realm expert. Of course, if I fail, I’ll give you my black crow.”

“Why do I want this black crow?”

“Because lord, I have nothing else to give you. Of course, I still have my insignificant reputation. If my lord is willing to take my life, I can give it to you.”

Victor waved his hand indifferently, his gaze like a torch. Even Feng Lian did not dare to look him in the eye.

“Alright, I will make this bet with you. If you can become a general, I will do my best to train you to the nascent soul realm. Then, I will fight you head-on for the position of the altar master. Of course, if you lose, forget about your black crow. I’ll take your life instead. It’ll have nothing to do with the Demon Slaying Division or the Central Plains Sect Alliance. It will belong to me alone.”

“Deal.”

Victor did not hesitate at all and agreed to Feng Lian’s request.

To be honest, on the way here, his companions had already told Victor about his opponents. Most of them were land-based demon beasts, and there were very few Flying Generals. The only one presentable was probably the previous generation’s Flying General. However, Victor did not think that… he had the ability to defeat him.

Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a sure win.

Of course, there was one point that Victor was not certain about.

Victor was not sure what level of strength he should reveal and display.

If he went all out, although Victor could easily obtain victory, at the same time, Victor also had the risk of exposing his identity.

However, if he used 50% of his strength, Victor might not necessarily win.

It was said that the previous generation’s Flying General was very strong, and was a core formation realm expert. Similar to Victor, he cultivated both body and magic.

Though more importantly, his demon beast, his mount.

A dual-attributed Fire-earth Flood Dragon!

That was right, a dual-attributed demon beast!

It was not an exaggeration to say that a dual-attributed flood dragon would certainly become a beast king in the future, which was a nascent soul realm expert!

In other words, as long as the previous generation of Flying Generals could advance to the nascent soul realm, he would be able to take away Feng Lian’s position as altar master!

Moreover, it was said that he had recently begun to advance to the nascent soul realm. If he could still become a general this time, perhaps, with the resources of a general, he would be able to successfully breakthrough to the nascent soul realm!

Therefore, the reason why Feng Lian placed her bet on Victor was because of her intention to try and let Victor defeat the previous Flying General.

After all, as long as she had the intention to continue being the altar master, she would have to solve the problem of the previous generation’s Flying General!

“So… Zhang Er, are you confident that you can get rid of that person?”

Feng Lian’s eyes flickered as she looked into the distance.

At the same time, because the Battle of the Generals would begin in three days, Victor was forced to stay in the Demon Slaying Division.

This did not matter. The main reason was that if too much time was wasted, Victor was afraid that the transaction between the Central Plains Sect Alliance and the Xiao family would go too smoothly and he would not be able to take the soul of the mountain spirit.

Fortunately, after asking around, it was said that although only the wisp of remnant soul’s location had been confirmed, they did not have the means to extract it. Therefore, Victor still had enough time.

“However…”

Victor looked around. This could be called a luxurious building. 17 to 18 servants and maids surrounded Victor,

“Isn’t this a bit too much…”

Victor understood that some of these people might have been sent by Feng Lian to serve him, but most of them should be Feng Lian’s spies to detect Victor’s every move.

However, there were too many of them. There was no need for more than a dozen people.

If Victor made a move, with his cultivation, it would be impossible for this group of trash to detect him. Moreover, Victor did not have any schemes, to begin with. He wanted to become a general and obtain enough resources to advance to the completion stage of the core formation realm.

As for advancing to the nascent soul realm, although it was somewhat regretful, but before Victor broke through the power of the mountain, he had no way, or rather, he could not do it at all.

“Speaking of which, what kind of person is the previous generation’s Flying General like?”

After all, being trapped by his powers, there was bound to be a life-and-death battle between Victor and the previous generation’s Flying General. This was inevitable.
