Chapter 1216: Chapter 1216: All Preparing_1
Soaking in the pool, Peter Brown was once again attended to by several maidens.
"Bring those five girls from the Dark Mist Sect to serve me."
As Peter thought about how those five beauties had acted so superior when he was at the Dark Mist Sect, he felt a certain satisfaction. He was curious to see what their attitudes would be now.
Soon, Maria Nelson and the other four girls walked in.
To Peter’s surprise, the girls showed no shyness. Upon entering, they quickly disrobed and stepped into the pool.
Gazing at them, Peter couldn’t help but inwardly praise them. The women of the Immortal Realm truly were incomparable to those of the Mortal Realm—they were mesmerizing from every angle.
"How do you feel since you’ve arrived at Hudson Manor?"
"Thank you for your concern, young master. We are living very well now."
Sherry Jackson was a girl with large eyes that seemed to beckon a kiss when she smiled.
"That’s good to hear. The Dark Mist Sect is no more, so you can just live here. With the protection of the Hawkins Family, you won’t have to resort to prostitution again."
At this point, a girl with long legs said, "Young master, we still have many sisters suffering."
Hearing this, the other maidens shot her a look.
But Peter waved it off, "Don’t reprimand her. It’s good that she thinks of her sisters. You’re Holly Cooper, right? Now, I’ll give you five a task. Any girl from your sect, if you come across her, redeem her. There’s plenty of room at Hudson Manor."
"What about the male disciples?" Holly asked.
"I have no use for the men; let them fend for themselves."
Hearing Peter say this, no one spoke any further on the matter.
Peter then handed a storage bag to Qiuxiang, the maiden who had been serving him from the beginning, "You’ll be in charge of this."
Qiuxiang’s face lit up with a smile at being entrusted with such responsibility, "Rest assured, young master, I will handle it well."
Peter closed his eyes and enjoyed the services of the beauties, having fully embraced the lifestyle of the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
After bathing and changing, Benjamin Woods and Huxley Brown came looking for him. As soon as they entered, Benjamin exclaimed, "William Stone, we rushed over as soon as we heard you were out of closed cultivation."
"What’s the situation outside?"
Seeing the two arrive, Peter asked.
Benjamin gave a wry smile, "The word about the Divine Consciousness Battlefield has spread. The sects have finished their selections, and the Great Elder will lead a team in. Several elders, including Elder Cook, will join, and those in the sect with life extension periods coming to an end are entering, too. Meanwhile, prices for usable Immortal Artifacts are rising every day in the markets."
"What does everyone make of this situation?"
"What else can they think? Everyone knows this is a fight to the death between the Beast Sect and the Demon Sect, a battle for survival. Our Beast Sect has about a hundred sects involved, and the Demon Sect the same, bringing the number entering to over two hundred thousand. All are Divine Sense masters, and ordinary people have no chance against them. It’s high-end combat."
Huxley sighed, "This Divine Sense Battle is essentially a decisive battle between the two sects. Though only one hundred thousand are entering, they represent the elite of both sides. The loser will be finished."
Peter then voiced his concern, "How are everyone’s bodies being handled for this? I hope the bodies aren’t destroyed while people are inside."
"You can rest easy about that. The placement of the Divine Stones is not managed by our sects but by an even higher level of powerful sects. Nobody dares to interfere, especially as individuals can set up their own protective formations. Many sects will build their strongest formations there. Outside there will be the formations of powerful sects, and inside, individuals and families can add their own Powerful Formations for protection. Given the status of the Hawkins Family, your grandfather will surely set up the family’s strongest defense formation. If you have your own formation, you can also set one up inside."
So that’s how it is!
Peter felt much more at ease.
"William Stone, how are you preparing? The sect even has a betting pool on everyone’s chances, and your odds aren’t looking good. Everyone thinks you won’t make it out alive." Benjamin looked at Peter as he spoke.
"What about you two? What do you think?" Peter asked with a smile.
Benjamin glanced at Peter, "Although you claimed victory in the resource war, everyone thinks it was mere coincidence, that you just happened to get the Stormneedle. Now that you don’t have it anymore, entering there against Divine Sense masters, you really don’t stand much chance, do you?"
Peter looked at them and smiled, "It’s indeed a challenge."
"You don’t have confidence either?" asked Benjamin.
"It’s not that I lack confidence. The Stone Family analysis does make some sense."
Benjamin sighed, "I thought you might have gained something else in that immortal tomb. Seems like you aren’t too confident either!"
"If you have faith in me, just bet that I’ll make it out alive."
Benjamin gave a wry smile.
Peter looked at them and thought to himself that they had come just to find out his plans, not really caring whether he lived or died.
Well, this could be another chance to make a fortune.
Peter believed that even if he wasn’t assured of great fortune, with his various skills and means, surviving shouldn’t be a problem.
Huxley then mentioned, "I’m not sure what your grandfather has prepared for you. Right now, every Immortal Artifact usable in the Divine Consciousness Battlefield is ridiculously priced. Just make sure you prepare thoroughly."
After chatting for a while, they left.
Once they were gone, Peter called over another maiden who had served him before, named Huamei. He instructed her to have the steward bet on him making it out alive. This time, Peter risked all his remaining Immortal Stones on the bet. If he survived, he firmly believed the profits would be immense.
After Huamei left, Harry White also came by, "Did you have the steward bet on you surviving?"
"I have the Devouring Technique, and I’ve improved it, making it even more powerful than before. I also have refining Immortal Artifacts and the escape Immortal Artifact you gave me. There’s no reason I shouldn’t survive."
Harry clapped his thigh, "Right! I’ll bet half of Hudson Manor’s assets on you surviving."
After saying that, Harry quickly left.
