Chapter 2190: Chapter 2188: Seize the City, Claim the Land

When Peter Brown heard their discussion, he was astonished. He hadn’t expected them to have such speculations. However, upon careful reflection, Peter could understand. From the perspective of the Demon Clan’s strong individuals, the Human Clan appeared as a weak group incapable of producing such powerful figures. Thus, the notion that experts from the Battle Energy World were controlling the masters of the Demon Clan from behind the scenes was more acceptable to them.

Regardless of how you looked at it, this matter was indeed a good thing for the Human Clan.

The Demon Clan’s offensive finally came to a halt. Besides closely monitoring them, Peter didn’t take further action.

After teleporting from the Elixir Sea, Peter returned to the Human World.

Just as Peter arrived, the Saint of Heaven Origin appeared before him and asked, "What’s the situation?"

As he spoke, one by one, the Saints condensed a sliver of their will into human forms and appeared in this special space.

Peter replied, "I leveraged ambush tactics, using twenty-something Quasi-Saint-level experts to eliminate ten Magic Instructors and thirty Void Saint-level experts. Then, by misleading them with a Quasi-Saint-level expert from the Battle Energy World, they concluded that the strong individuals from the Battle Energy World secretly controlled their forces to bring about this outcome. As a result, their offensive ceased. Most of their forces were redirected to defend against the Battle Energy World instead."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Peter in shock. While they knew Peter had some Guardian experts under his command, they didn’t expect him to possess so many masters, let alone experts from the Battle Energy World.

Although curious about the specifics, probing into these secrets was considered inappropriate. After all, every practitioner had their own hidden matters in the Cultivation Realm, and it was taboo to inquire into someone else’s secrets. They figured even if they asked, Peter wouldn’t divulge anything.

After a while, the Saint of Heaven Origin let out a deep breath and said, "This is good news; achieving such results is undoubtedly beneficial for our Human Clan."

"Indeed, we can finally breathe easier. This situation disrupted their balance and created suspicion among them."

"Peter, you’ve done well. This will certainly break apart their joint action and buy time for our Human Clan."

"Even if we’ve gained time, what use is it? Our clan hardly has anyone with the potential to achieve Sainthood!"

Quickly, the conversation shifted back to the critical issue. For the Human Clan, the lack of Saints was the crux of the matter.

With a sigh, the Saint of Heaven Origin remarked, "Let’s leave it at that for now. Peter, I’ll rely on you to pay more attention to the Western Region!"

Everyone’s gaze turned to Peter. Although his cultivation level wasn’t particularly high, Peter was the most mysterious among them. With him defending the Western Region, it was undoubtedly advantageous for the Human Clan.

After hesitating for a moment, the Northern Saint asked, "Peter, if a Saint were to arrive, how confident are you of prevailing?"

"No chance of victory, but I can escape. My people can escape too," Peter replied confidently.

Escape!

Upon hearing this, everyone was profoundly shaken. Peter’s statement was far from ordinary. What did it imply? It meant Peter still had cards up his sleeve. He could face off against a Saint without dying. What kind of capability was this?

They exchanged glances with one another and then turned their attention to Peter’s cultivation. The Saint_of_Kunlun remarked, "Peter, you should focus on upgrading your cultivation as soon as possible. If our clan could gain another Saint like you, we’d be able to reverse our dire situation."

Everyone silently nodded. The hope of the Human Clan might truly rest with Peter. He was a variable for their people.

Peter could only nod in agreement. He understood his situation well. Improving his cultivation would be challenging, primarily due to the limitations of his body’s endurance.

As the Saints departed one by one, Peter also returned to the Starlight Domain.

Emerging from the teleportation formation, Peter walked while pondering his own matters.

For Peter, the crux was indeed his cultivation. If he possessed greater cultivation, many things would be within his grasp.

"Your Majesty, our army’s progress is exceptionally smooth. We’ve now crushed another nation."

Philips Williams was clearly riding high at the moment. Many matters were left unaddressed by Peter, effectively making Philips a king, commanding the army and conquering territories. One nation after another fell to their forces.

"Recruit those who are loyal and brave. I shall personally elevate another group to Void Saint level!"

Peter knew that the ongoing progress inevitably consumed personnel. At the same time, there was a dire need for myriad experts to guard various territories, particularly Void Saint-level masters.

Philips Williams grinned and replied, "Your Majesty, I have long been preparing for this. Recently, many loyal and capable individuals have emerged. Here’s the list; they can all be teleported back within two days."

Peter took the list and said to Philips, "Alright, summon them back."

Activating the Faith Network, Peter cross-referenced the personnel on the list and quickly established connections with their faith.

After some time, Peter had a complete understanding of the individuals provided.

Striking out a few names on the list, Peter told Philips, "Send these few individuals to perform the most dangerous tasks."

Philips Williams was a shrewd character. Upon hearing this, he immediately understood that these individuals had issues. He quickly responded, "Rest assured, Your Majesty, I will take care of it right away."

Philips had grown even more respectful of Peter. Just by glancing at the list, Peter could deduce the nature of these individuals—a feat beyond the abilities of ordinary people.

In fact, Philips had already investigated these particular names carefully. He found they were fierce fighters who outwardly displayed fervent loyalty and unwavering faith toward Peter. However, they only cultivated surface appearances.

Perhaps Peter even understood the circumstances of Philips and the rest.

With this thought, Philips became even more loyal.

As Philips departed, Peter didn’t pay much attention to those few individuals. Based on what he had learned, those people were merely remnants from extinguished powers, lying in wait for an opportunity to rebel. Since that was the case, sending them to fight the toughest battles seemed appropriate—they would be cleaned up sooner or later.

Such internal issues were trivial and not worth fussing over. Peter’s focus was now on upgrading his cultivation as much as possible.

He didn’t bother visiting the beauties either. Peter was well aware that, with Philips managing matters, his royal harem likely had a new group of beautiful women awaiting his favor.
