Chapter 4042

Chapter 4042 James stayed inside the cottage and spoke with Karglain for a while longer.

After their conversation, James learned more about the elderly man.

Karglain was a human that had survived the Primordial Realm Era.

Back then, he was only at the Sage Rank and was extremely weak.

Although the Ten Great Races did not completely wipe out the humans in the Greater Realms during

the Primordial Realm Era, humanity was at its lowest point.

As a result, the other major races ruthlessly hunted down humans.

The humans that survived banded together and secretly established the Heaven-Eradicating Sect.

The Heaven- Eradicating Sect’s members were scattered across every major territory in the Greater

Realms.

This village was one of the Heaven-Eradicating Sect’s bases in the Soul Realm and Karglain was the

village chief.

Karglain said solemnly,” “Bruce Jensen is the strongest man in our village.

His parents served a family of the Soul Race.

Unfortunately, they were tortured to death, and he lost his home.

I found him and took him in.

He holds great potential in cultivation and also bears intense hatred toward the Soul Race.

“After learning that the Soul Race’s prodigy, Saturio Hadecus was out training, Bruce secretly followed

them and set up a formation to kill them.

Unfortunately, Saturio was accompanied bya powerful follower.

Bruce was wounded and ended up missing.

James asked, “Why didn’t he return to treat his injuries?” Dahlia spoke up from the side, “It’s our sect’s

rule.

We can’t return to our base after exposing ourselves when we fail our mission.

Otherwise, it’d provide an opportunity for the enemy to tail us, and would cause devastating damage to

the headquarters.

Even if we risk dying outside, we must never endanger our comrades.” There was a touch of sadness

and worry on Dahlia’s face.

“When I went to the Hopeless City, I was not only there to investigate deeper into the Soul Race, but

also to look for information about Bruce.

However, I didn’t hear anything about him.

We still have no clue where he could be.” James comforted her, “If there is no news, then it means he’s

still alive.

He must be hiding somewhere to nurse his injuries.

After he recovers and the coast is clear, he will likely come back.” Dahlia sighed softly.

“I hope so.” Soon, everyone in the village was ready to set off.

Someone walked into the cottage and reported, “Sir, preparations are complete.” Karglain ordered,

“Alright.

Evacuate the village now.” Afterward, thousands of people gathered outside the village entrance.

They were all from this branch of the Heaven- Eradicating Sect.

Karglain turned around and looked at the village behind him wistfully.

Then, he said, “We’ve stayed here for so long it makes me sad to leave.

After we leave, the intelligence network we've grown over the years will go to waste.” The Human Race

had a large population.

Although the overall strength of the race was relatively weak, they were extremely prolific.

Throughout the Greater Realms, all major races possess slaves and servants.

Unfortunately, that’s the role humans occupy in this current age.

However, the Heaven -Eradicating Sect took advantage of this and created various connections

throughout the Greater Realms to form a powerful intelligence network.

Through their networks, they could acquire news about the major races and first-hand information

about the movements of their prodigies.

After acquiring this information, they would make plans and eliminate these prodigies.

Karglain had a sorrowful expression.

Although they had to move frequently, they had lived in the village for at least a thousand Epochs, and

he was sad to have to abandon it.

After a while, he raised his hand, and a powerful force emerged from his palm.

The force swept forward and levelled the village.

Soon, nothing was left in place.

Then, Karglain said, “Let’s go.

The Soul Realm is crawling with the Soul Race.

In order to lay low, we’ll have to move separately and meet at our usual spot outside of the Soul Realm.

“Understood.” With Karglain’s order, everyone outside the village quickly departed and disappeared

from sight.

James was left with Karglain and Dahlia.

“Let’s go, Mr.

Caden.”
