God-Tier Providence System-Chapter 110

Then, clearing all obstacles and snatching the Vault of Divine Blade Heart would also be an absolute certainty for Knox.

That was exactly why, the moment he heard Knox went to the Divine Blade Sect, Alex instantly lost all his calm.

He had to reach the Divine Blade Sect one step ahead of him. At the fastest possible speed.

The moment the Vault of Divine Blade Heart appeared, he had to directly strike and snatch it right into his own pocket. Otherwise, if he was late, it would be too late.

Immediately, Alex fully urged his cloud, heading straight toward the southwest at a speed of twenty thousand miles per hour.

The Divine Blade Sect was located in the Southwestern region. The lands here contained a hundred thousand great mountains, with layers upon layers of peaks.

As long as one was trapped deep within, it would be absolutely difficult to escape.

The Divine Blade Sect, as the Sword Dao great sect with the longest and deepest foundation in the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, naturally occupied the peaks with the most abundant spiritual energy among the hundred thousand great mountains.

Three hundred Outer Sect peaks, thirty Inner Sect peaks and sitting on nearly a hundred thousand disciples.

The Outer Sect cultivated sword techniques and the Inner Sect cultivated sword souls.

Their name shook the world.

...

Alex took only four hours to travel from the Hale family’s holy land to the Southwestern region.

After arriving, he didn’t immediately head to the Divine Blade Sect. Instead, he hovered in mid-air searching for a while. Eventually, locking his gaze onto an inconspicuous mountain peak, he leaped down from the sky.

He did this because he clearly saw a flag erected outside the entrance on the peak, embroidered with the word Hale.

Arriving at the summit, he found a tall, spacious cave before him. Inside the cave sat a youth on a recliner, holding a cattail leaf fan in one hand and a teapot in the other. Looking incredibly carefree and leisurely.

"Ahem." Alex stood outside the cave with his hands behind his back and coughed faintly.

The youth jolted in shock. He immediately rushed out of the cave, clasped his fists, and shouted loudly, "Southwestern region Branch Family’s Blaze Hale pays respects to the Saint Lord!"

As the largest Saint lineage in the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, the Hale family’s branch forces naturally spread across the world.

Of course, this so-called spread across the world was just a general statement. There were vast differences between the branch families.

Branch families in the Purple Star Dynasty, White Feather Dynasty, and Myriad Thunder Dynasty possessed thousands of disciples. Boasting forces that rivaled the Main Family itself.

However, in a place like the Southwestern region, which was both remote and impoverished, completely lacking any developmental value, even if a branch family was established, it was nothing more than a minor operation.

In fact, this particular branch family consisted of exactly one person.

"Blaze, you have been stationed here all alone these past few years. You’ve worked hard." Alex nodded, walked into the cave, and sat down on the recliner.

"However, you are so young. Why are you acting like an old geezer?"

"Go, make a pot of fresh tea for me."

"Hehe, it’s not hard work, not at all!" Blaze laughed awkwardly and nodded, immediately scurrying off to brew a pot of fresh tea.

"The fact that the Saint Lord hasn’t forgotten me is already a heaven-sent honor!"

"If the Saint Lord truly feels bad for me, how about transferring me back to the Main Family and finding someone else to take my place?"

"Uh... let’s forget about that." Alex laughed awkwardly.

"You’ve made no small contributions over the years. How could I strip you of your position?"

"Therefore, you should continue to stay here and be the Head of the Southwestern Branch Family."

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to transfer Blaze back to the Main Family. It was just that absolutely no one else was willing to take the position.

Staying in the deep mountains every day, lacking good food and drink, with only flowers, birds, fish, and insects for company.

Back then, Blaze had committed a minor offense.

To punish him, Alex had given him this miserable assignment. In the blink of an eye, Blaze had been stuck here for nearly a hundred years.

To ensure that when he occasionally needed to visit the Southwestern region, like today, there would be a local familiar with the terrain and customs to receive him... he could only let Blaze continue suffering here.

...

"Blaze, I already told you the specific situation via the communication jade slip." Alex asked seriously.

"What exactly is the situation at the Divine Blade Sect right now?"

"Is the Vault of Divine Blade Heart truly about to appear?"

Blaze replied, "Saint Lord, regarding this, your subordinate isn’t entirely sure either."

"Last night, above the Azure Dragon Valley of the Divine Blade Sect’s Peak, a brief phenomenon did indeed occur."

"However, before anyone could get a clear look, the Sect Master, Magnus, and several elders joined forces to suppress the phenomenon."

"Furthermore, after the phenomenon occurred, all the major elders snapped their swords and sealed the mountain. Forbidding any outsiders from stepping even half a pace into the Divine Blade Sect."

"Right now, although rumors are flying everywhere in the outside world, no one knows exactly what the internal situation is like within the Divine Blade Sect..."

Alex frowned. His expression turning slightly severe.

Originally, he had counted on his status and his past friendship with Magnus to go directly to the Divine Blade Sect and demand a clear answer. Now it seemed that playing the esteemed senior card wasn’t going to work.

Moreover, something massive must have happened inside the Divine Blade Sect. They were hiding a tremendous secret.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have acted so suspiciously, literally sealing the entire mountain and forbidding outsiders from entering. Since he had already traveled all the way here, he absolutely had to go in and investigate.

Alex narrowed his eyes. "Blaze, what ideas do you have?"

"Hehe, Saint Lord, I’ve already thought it through for you." Blaze patted his chest, smiling with absolute confidence.

"Although the Divine Blade Sect forbids outsiders from entering, it doesn’t mean they are impregnable."

"For example, their recruitment of new disciples from major aristocratic families is our best opportunity."

"I have already found a suitable identity for you, Saint Lord."
