A Demon's Journey

Chapter 388 - Dragon Tiger Palace's Plan

The Dragon Tiger Palace had begun to approach Yrellea's subordinates. Their intention was to dismiss Yrellea so that the Misty Flower Pavilion would remain unaffected.

It meant they had to placate Yrellea's subordinates first.

Yrellea had kept tight control over the situation. She knew exactly which subordinates were coming in contact with the Dragon Tiger Palace's higher-ups.

This was also the primary reason she had to stay in this place from now on. If she moved away, the Dragon Tiger Palace would successfully poach a few of her subordinates.

Although they won't figure out all the secrets of the Misty Flower Pavilion, it would still significantly affect the Misty Flower Pavilion's profit.

The Dragon Tiger Palace could then use their martial strength to completely get rid of the Misty Flower Pavilion and start it from scratch.

There were many other strategies they could use to earn greater profit. Thus, they needed to poach some of Yrellea's subordinates.

And Yrellea's task was to find those individuals who had been poached by the Dragon Tiger Palace.

Out of the 50 or so subordinates she had under her, nearly 7 had successfully been poached by the Dragon Tiger Palace.

It was only natural. The Dragon Tiger Palace had used the soft and hard kind of tactics.

They initially just made them greedy using their money, cultivation resources, the guidance of experienced seniors, and a high position in the Dragon Tiger Palace.

If they agreed, they could also be the main officials who would control the Misty Flower Pavilion.

It meant they would earn even higher income and gain some fame as well. Instead of Yrellea, their names would start gaining some prestige.

The Dragon Tiger Palace continued to show them great dreams so that they would betray the Misty Flower Pavilion.

This eventually occurred. They sent the Misty Flower Pavilion's information to the Dragon Tiger Palace.

All the internal details of the Misty Flower Pavilion had been informed to the Dragon Tiger Palace.

And this whole thing was occurring under Yrellea's watchful eye. She had already found out all the traitors were using tricks like feeding wrong information to her subordinates and watching the Dragon Tiger Palace's higher-ups' reactions through her spies in the Dragon Tiger Palace.

Since the Dragon Tiger Palace had poached some of her subordinates, Yrellea had done the same.

She had an idea to deal with the traitors while even increasing the Misty Flower Pavilion's prestige.

The seven individuals who had betrayed her had already been marked and informed to all the other people within the Misty Flower Pavilion. The core members, at least.

Yrellea had slowly begun to create a two-layered structure within the Misty Flower Pavilion. The first layer would be when she informs her idea to everyone.

And the second layer would be when the spies were filtered out of these subordinates, and they would hear her true plan.

Moreover, the presence of these spies would allow Yrellea to control what information she should give to the Dragon Tiger Palace.

If the Dragon Tiger Palace believes that the situation is under their control, they won't take drastic actions.

Naturally, this situation would only occur for a few months. After that, the Dragon Tiger Palace would begin to take some drastic actions.

However, Yrellea was confident in settling up proper countermeasures to ensure that the Dragon Tiger Palace couldn't do anything to the Misty Flower Pavilion.

Azaroth had informed Yrellea that she could call out for Laura and Noah's groups for any assistance she required.

She had the money and resources due to the massive income she earned through the Misty Flower Pavilion.

On the surface, the world would believe that Yrellea had hired these two groups to protect the Misty Flower Pavilion.

While Noah stayed in Veninza City, the Ministers, the Princes, and the Sects couldn't find him. They all wanted to contact him to figure out where he got those recovery pellets.

They were extremely valuable as almost no alchemist could concoct them in the Glerian Kingdom.

Through Noah, they could find a talented alchemist. Noah's value didn't just stop at this, though. His own talent in the sword was extremely great.

Most importantly, the status he held was far too valuable. He held the title of a General. Even though he was restricted to only 5000 men under him, it was still significant. All these soldiers were just under a single individual. The king won't interfere with him or try to restrict his freedom.

Naturally, these were merely sweet promises. The King wasn't going to allow open reign to such an individual for very long.

But still, Noah could enjoy these benefits for quite some time.

This was also why Azaroth asked him to go around and get used to commanding his men. Noah was bound to meet up with more people as he traveled around.

As he met more people, his thoughts were going to mature. This maturity would be visible during his fight.

Even though he possessed the Enlightened Sword Heart, there was a kind of immaturity about it. It was this reason that even if Azaroth and Noah were at the same rank, Azaroth could always suppress Noah using his vast battle experience.

Noah might take perfect actions that his mind could think, but Azaroth was proficient in breaking these kinds of individuals.

Moreover, Noah had to learn more about the world as a whole. He still knew too little.

Only Azaroth knew where exactly Noah and his group were. Noah's group had launched a surprise assault at the Sinyalian Kingdom's border area.

This was the area that was under the Rhodes Family.

The King of the Glerian Kingdom knew about this attack and had sent reinforcements to assist Noah.

This was because he greatly valued Noah's talent and planned to have this kid perform some great tasks for him in the future.

He knew that it would be foolishness to let a talent die like this. It wasn't new for them to suddenly attack the Sinyalian Kingdom's camp.

The soldiers would often be driven by emotions and attack without any order from their superiors.

The King was actually happy to know that Noah had launched this surprise attack at the Sinyalian Kingdom.

Through this, he figured out that Noah had some sort of grudge against the Sinyalian Kingdom.

He knew that the sects or the other associations didn't plan to wage war against the Sinyalian Kingdom just yet.

The war allowed the Royal Family to take all control of the resources in the kingdom. It would greatly inhibit any plans of development for the sects.

In addition, the entire Glerian Kingdom was terrified of something else. And that something was the attack of the demons.

The demons' attack on all branches of the Origin Sect had utterly terrified them. The fact that these demons could suddenly target all branches of the Origin Sect meant they were somewhere nearby.

They just required a single order to attack the entire Origin Sect.

It was Origin Sect now, but who would they target next? This question terrified them and prevented them from sleeping peacefully.
