Chapter 349: Chapter 348: East Sea Palace

At this moment, Peter Brown also thought about the situation of East Sea Palace mentioned by Jack Thompson. Although they did not explain in detail, from their words, it can be known that although the East Sea Palace belongs to the cultivation faction of Hua Nation, since Southeast Asia used to be a vassal state of Hua Nation, the disciples they recruited actually included those from Southeast Asia.

From what Peter gathered, the East Sea Palace is different from other sects. They have recruited a large number of Southeast Asian disciples in recent times, making the sect’s power grow increasingly stronger.

Is this still a sect of Hua Nation?

After learning about the situation of this sect, Peter knew why this sect wanted to kill him. To put it bluntly, this sect no longer belongs to Hua Nation’s cultivation faction. It represents the interests of some powers in Southeast Asia. Peter even thought that the South Sea incident probably involved the East Sea Palace. Otherwise, they wouldn’t want to kill him simply because many people died in that incident.

Peter didn’t know what the cultivators of Hua Nation were thinking, as no one seemed to care about such a sect.

However, Peter soon had his own answer. Seth Wilson and the others represented some ancient cultivation sects. These sects are equivalent to the elite families of Hua Nation. They have their own circles and have long-standing marriages, which have intricately connected everyone. It would be impossible to not have any contact with them.

It seems that the crisis is coming!

Of course, Peter is not too worried about the appearance of this sect, as he has many means at his disposal.

Peter returned to his residence only when the sky began to brighten.

Aurelia Green and the others have gone to Southport. Ella Johnson quickly settled in. Peter didn’t know what means this beautiful woman used to arrange temporary leave from her job. She only took one day leave and moved all her luggage to the village, seemingly ready to settle in the countryside.

Sometimes Peter couldn’t help but laugh to himself – his teacher actually left her job to work for him, which was quite a touching affair.

Of course, others might not know, but Peter has known Ella for so long, having gained some understanding of this beautiful teacher. She’s not the type that seeks stability, and it would be weirder for her not to get involved in such an occurrence.

No matter what, having such a person help manage things is definitely a good thing.

Peter also learned from Maisy Spencer that Ella Johnson really taught herself management knowledge, using his company as her experimental ground this time.

About everything being done by someone else, Peter had nothing much to do every day. Aside from taking elixirs, he meditated and inscribed some offensive jade talismans. Now, Peter’s primary goal is arming himself.

Now, Peter has many more means of attack. Attaching a jade talisman to a rocket is one of the methods. Later, he found that inscribing Dao patterns on bullets is another method. In the same way, one can attach breaking truth talismans to bullets for attack.

The breaking truth talisman can break through the opponent’s True Qi and is an offensive method. When using such bullets, the True Qi defenses of the opponent can be broken, carrying some striking power against cultivators.

Of course, Peter knew that these things only work against ordinary cultivators, and their effectiveness is greatly reduced against those who are above the Qi-refining seventh layer.

As time went by, Peter focused on making talisman bullets and further researching weapon attack methods.

On the third day, Cain Martin from Western Gibson family came with a young man.

As for the Thompson Family, Peter didn’t make things difficult for them anymore. With Henry Martin’s relationship, Peter was quite friendly towards them.

"Mr.Wang, this is Mr. Simeon Turner, the General Manager of Dongsheng Group from East Sea City."

East Sea City?

Upon hearing this name, Peter’s heart stirred. He looked at Simeon Turner, and to his surprise, this young man was already at the Qi-refining sixth layer, even higher than Peter’s cultivation.

Simeon Turner didn’t have the arrogant air of a young master and greeted Peter with a slight smile, "Our group has heard that Mr. Wang is going to develop this area greatly, and we also have a positive outlook. We plan to invest and set up a factory here. Please take care of us, Mr. Wang."

Could this be someone from the East Sea Palace?

Peter had a feeling that the company this young man represented was probably East Sea Palace.

"I wonder what your Dongsheng Group is planning to operate?"

"We have a positive outlook on the flower industry. We have reached some agreements with the government, and we plan to establish a large flower plantation in Sky Release Village. By then, we will be neighbors with you in Blackstone Village, hehe."

Peter’s brows furrowed slightly. Sky Release Village is the closest village to Blackstone Village and is a very poor village in reality. There is no problem with them expanding there, but once they do, other problems arise.

Peter Brown was aware of the spiritual vein situation here. Actually, Sky Release Village was a passageway for a spiritual vein. If the spiritual vein connection is cut off there, Blackstone Village would lose the source of the spiritual vein, and even if a Spiritual Gathering Array is placed, not much spiritual energy can be collected.

This must have been a premeditated act!

Peter Brown quickly realized the situation. The other party probably thought that he wanted to gather spiritual energy mainly through plants, so cutting off his spiritual vein source effectively deterred his plan.

The main purpose of this seemed to be to make him feel disgusted with himself.

Looking at the young man who appeared amicable, Peter Brown understood that he wasn’t as friendly as he seemed, and he must be more careful in the future.

Simeon Turner was also looking at Peter Brown at this moment. Seeing the change in Peter’s expression, he smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, I heard that it is difficult to grow flowers nowadays, sometimes poisonous gas might be released from the flowers. One of the purposes of my visit today is to remind Mr. Wang to be mindful of poisonous substances."

Upon hearing this, Peter Brown became puzzled. It didn’t seem like the other party was going to attack immediately, but now they suddenly mentioned this, it seemed like his judgment had problems.

"So, are you planning to release poisonous gas?"

It suddenly clicked for Peter that in addition to cutting off the spiritual vein, the other party also had plans to plot against him secretly.

"East Sea Palace?" Peter asked. At this point, he knew that the other party was here to issue a challenge letter.

"It seems Mr. Wang is well-informed. That’s good. You should know that the power of our East Sea Palace is very strong."

Glancing at Cain Martin, Simeon Turner gestured him to leave, saying, "You can go outside for a while, and I’ll have a chat with Mr. Wang."

Cain Martin was respectful, saying, "Alright, you chat, and I’ll wait outside."

It was obvious that although the Martin family was considered a mighty family, they showed great respect to Simeon Turner.

From this, Peter knew that East Sea Palace was indeed a powerful Sect.

"It seems that the strength of your East Sea Palace is indeed formidable."

Chuckles, "Peter, there are no outsiders anymore. There’s no need for us to hide anything. Indeed, the power of East Sea Palace in Hua Nation is growing. Do you know, ever since a hundred years ago, various cultivation factions have hidden in small realms, avoiding coming out. But our East Sea Palace? We took advantage of the situation to develop continuously. Our influence now covers all Southeast Asian countries, and many people say our faction is one of the top factions in Southeast Asia."

"With strong power, does Hua Nation no longer matter to you?" Peter asked with a grim voice.

Laughing, Simeon Turner replied, "What’s the purpose of cultivation? It’s nothing more than to achieve immortality. There’s no need to be too particular about where we are from. The other Sects have closed themselves off, thinking that only Hua-Chinese people can inherit Hua Nation cultivation arts. In reality, the most important thing for cultivators is to get resources for cultivation. Look at our East Sea Palace; ever since we welcomed disciples from other countries, our influence has spread far and wide. More and more people have begun to help us collect resources, and our experts have outnumbered those of any other faction."

"You didn’t just come to tell me about this, did you?"

"Correct, Peter, how should I describe you? Being a Qi Refining Fifth Level cultivator, you dared to offend the world’s cultivation factions. Do you know how to spell the word ’death’? Many disciples from our Sect’s affiliated families have been killed by you. We must do something about it; otherwise, it’s going to be hard to explain to our people!"

At this point, murderous intent shone in Simeon Turner’s eyes, "More importantly, you have angered our Palace Master’s wife. He has issued a kill order on you. Though we people above Qi-refining seventh layer cannot trouble you, those below that level don’t have such concerns. You better watch out for yourself!"

This young man had completely changed his attitude, and his face showed strong killing intentions.

They are coming so fast!

He just learned about the existence of the East Sea Palace, and now people from the Sect have already arrived. Peter finally understood that Seth Wilson and the others must have known about this matter beforehand, but they just gave him a simple reminder.

"Simeon Turner, right? Many people want to deal with me. I’d like to see how you’re going to kill me."

Simeon chuckled, "We do have rules to follow. We will not harm you in front of the mortals. But you better not be alone; otherwise, we will launch a surprise attack on you. You better take good care of yourself."

When Simeon Turner said this, he looked down upon Peter Brown, as if Peter was already a dead man in his eyes.

Looking at the other party, Peter Brown smiled and said, "Fine, I’ll be waiting!"
