Chapter 1505: Chapter 1505: If He Won’t Co to , I’ll Go to Him
Archie Cooke’s face was as dark as storm clouds. He gritted his teeth but dared not act out.
Carson Flores was not just defeating him, but crushing his spirit!
He had already won, and yet he insisted on rubbing salt into the wound!
But what could Archie do?
After all, he had lost.
With helplessness, Archie apologized, “It was my words that were out of line and offended Daoist Flores. I’m sorry, please forgive .”
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Archie admitted defeat and apologized. Naturally, Carson couldn’t keep kicking soone when they were down, or it would be unbecoming. After all, the agreent was to determine superiority, not fight to the death.
Carson smiled lightly: “Let that be the end of it. Farewell.”
Not wanting to waste ti arguing, Carson turned and walked away cleanly, heading back to the city.
Archie stared at Carson’s confident retreating figure, biting his teeth hard but remaining speechless.
“Let’s go!”
Archie and Mia Malone swiftly hurried back to the city. Archie needed to treat his broken arm and recover quickly. Otherwise, how could he compete in the alchemy tournant with one arm?
“Senior Brother, are we really just letting this go?”
Once they were away from the crowd of cultivators watching the spectacle, Mia Malone asked in a dissatisfied whisper.
Archie’s face was grim: “With so many eyes on us, this can’t beco a reason for targeting him. For now, let’s endure it. I’ll settle this debt when an opportunity arises in the future.”
Mia cursed, “Who would’ve thought that guy was a disciple of Bank Austin? He’s clearly just at the Middle Stage Human Immortal, not as strong as you, Senior Brother. And yet, his combat power seems terrifyingly high…”
Archie snorted coldly: “Anyone who catches Bank Austin’s eye is no ordinary person. Isn’t he also competing in the alchemy tournant? I hope he progresses through a few rounds. That way, I’ll have a chance to face him on the sa platform and humiliate him through alchemy. At least I’d regain so honor…”
Mia grunted: “White Cloud Immortal Sect doesn’t even specialize in alchemy. I doubt his skills are worth much. This tournant is drawing together heroes from across the land, and many renowned alchemists are participating. Even you, Senior Brother, don’t have absolute confidence in winning the championship. What chance could he possibly have to stand out?”
Archie pressed his lips together: “Hopefully his luck holds enough to make it through a few rounds… Enough about him. Let’s hurry back to the city to heal my injuries.”
…
The duel between Carson Flores and Archie Cooke stirred up so waves, but ultimately, it was nothing more than a trifling splash.
Fly Phoenix City was now teeming with a sea of cultivators. Many powerful figures with significant reputations had gathered here. Amid such a density of formidable individuals, clashes of interest were inevitable, and whenever opponents crossed paths, sparks would fly.
The battles in the air over the desolate wilderness outside the city never ceased. Waves of combat rose and fell, and many were slain on the spot during these fights. Over the past few days, there had been no shortage of casualties.
The Alchemist Association had anticipated this issue. They specially invited Nine Li Immortal Monarch—a Heavenly Immortal Realm powerhouse—to oversee Fly Phoenix City and prohibited any private duels among cultivators within the city’s walls. Those who defied the rule would pay a hefty price.
Carson Flores returned to the city but didn’t imdiately start refining pills. After all, with the tournant approaching, there wouldn’t be ti to cultivate even if he succeeded in refining sothing. Instead, it was better to use the ti to browse the trade markets.
Beyond gathering necessary ingredients, Carson had another reason—he hoped to encounter Selah Ellison Fairy. However, despite being in the city for many days, he hadn’t seen her once.
Perhaps she hadn’t co at all.
Perhaps it was nothing more than his own stubborn and wistful longing.
After wandering the herb market for two more days, Carson finally gathered all the ingredients for Snow Spirit Pill, Ink Jade Pill, and Mind of Buddha Pill. However, he hadn’t found even a single main ingredient for the Nine Revolutions Great Land Pill, which left him rather disappointed.
Forget it. Better to focus on the tournant.
While Carson focused his mind at the hotel, preparing for the competition, a young woman with a veiled face and an elegant figure arrived at Fly Phoenix City. Accompanying her were a white-haired elder and a charming middle-aged woman.
The young woman looked around eagerly, her expression joyful: “So lively!”
The middle-aged woman smiled: “It feels lively because the Skyland Continent Alchemy Tournant is about to take place. Although this Fly Phoenix City is an Imperial City, it’s nothing extraordinary. At most, it’s comparable to one of our major cities…”
The young woman laughed: “Let’s take in the excitent first, then head to White Crane Immortal Sect.”
The middle-aged woman pursed her lips slightly and glanced sideways at the white-haired elder. The elder remained composed as always, smiling faintly without speaking.
Lowering her voice, the middle-aged woman said, “Miss, if you want to see him, just give the order to have him brought to the Celestial Palace. Why all this sneaking around? If word gets out, it could bring a slew of trouble…”
“With Uncle Zhong here, what trouble could arise? Maggie Fitzgerald is being hunted down by everywhere. She wouldn’t dare show her face again, right?”
The young woman’s eyes sparkled, crescent-shaped like the moon: “That guy has such a straightforward nature. He’s been in the Immortal Domains for so many years and hasn’t even sent a single letter. Clearly, he has no intention of reaching out to .”
“He’s truly remarkable. Bank Austin left behind a legacy spanning thousands of years, and none could inherit it. Yet he stayed at White Crane Immortal Sect as a guest for a while and earned the title of Bank Austin’s disciple. His luck remains as uncanny as ever.”
Under the veil, the young woman’s radiant, mischievous smile blood, and her eyes shimred with a trace of cunning like a playful fox: “He doesn’t want to rely on or inconvenience . If he won’t co looking for , then I’ll co looking for him.”
