The next day, Kadhar welcomed the experts sent by the Leader. The one leading them was Elder Hadji. He was the second Heavenly God Realm expert of their Winged Devil Race. Elder Hadji was at the early stage of the Heavenly God Realm! Behind him were five Supreme God Realm experts.
“Welcome Elder Hadji! I apologize, but I don’t have my own house or manor here since I just came here yesterday. However, I’ve already prepared rooms for each one of you.” Kadhar said with a hint of embarrassment.
Elder Hadji shook his head. He had a strict and solemn face that could scare anyone just by seeing him. Even Kadhar didn’t dare look at him straight in the eye. “It doesn’t matter. The Leader didn’t give us any additional details about the mission this time, so tell us more about it.”
Kadhar glanced to his left and right before muttering. “This isn’t the best place to talk. Let’s go somewhere quieter.”
Kadhar brought Elder Hadji and the other five to a small pub. There were only a few people inside. It was the perfect place to talk about important matters!
After they sat down, Kadhar cleared his throat and said. “I reckon that the Leader has already informed everyone about the minor details of this mission, but to make sure that we are on the same page, I’ll start from the beginning.”
Kadhar took out a piece of parchment from his space ring and placed it on the table. It has the image of a person and his name. It also has some information about him.
“Yin Long, the current Sect Master of the God Sword Region. I saw him yesterday in a wine store. As you all know, the God Sword Region is an enemy of the Dark Devil Race and they even posted wanted posters for its remaining members. Just Yin Long’s head alone is already valuable! However, he didn’t come alone in that wine store!”
The eyes of Elder Hadji and the five Supreme God Realm experts flashed coldly upon hearing this.
“I saw two more old men together with Yin Long. I don’t have the wanted poster of the other two Heavenly God Realm experts of the God Sword Region, but I’m certain that it was them!”
“What?! All three of them came out at the same time?!” Elder Hadji exclaimed in surprise. He then took out two pieces of parchment from his space ring and placed them on the table. “Look at these posters. Is it them?”
Kadhar furrowed his eyebrows and took the two posters. When he saw the images of the two, he let out a smirk. “It’s them! I can’t be wrong! Although I didn’t dare look at them for long, I’m sure that I saw them!”
Hearing this, Elder Hadji was surprised. He then frowned as he pondered deeply. “Where did you see them?” He asked.
“I don’t if you’ve heard about this place already. I found them in the most famous wine store of Hard Rock City, the dragon building, ‘The Immortal’s Wine Store’!” Kadhar answered.
“The Immortal’s Wine Store? I’ve heard about it, but I didn’t take those rumors seriously…” Elder Hadji muttered in contempt.
Kadhar suddenly smiled and said. “What if all those rumors are true? Yesterday, Yin Long and the other two went to the dragon building and chatted with the owner, Wine Master Jiu Shen. I didn’t know what they chatted about and I didn’t dare move closer to them, but the whole matter is very suspicious.”
Elder Hadji nodded his head in agreement. He also believed that there was a reason for the sudden appearance of those three old men in the dragon building, but what could it be?
“This information is too valuable. We must not allow anyone to know about this. Kadhar, you and the others will monitor that dragon building and see if those three old men would come back. Once you see any of them, inform me immediately through your communication crystals!” Elder Hadji commanded.
“Yes, Elder Hadji!” Kadhar and the other five Supreme God Realm experts replied.
“Good! I will do a separate investigation myself. If I visit that dragon building, I would only attract unnecessary attention. If I do that, we might be discovered by them! I’ll try to search for the location of the God Sword Region’s secret base. I will inform you guys if I find anything. Alright, that would be all. Dismissed!”

Yin Long, Gu San, and Ka Wayan went back to the castle and informed everyone about the merge with the Heavenly Sword Tower. At first, the Elders and disciples were shocked and confused by the sudden decision of their Sect Master and Vice Sect Masters. They didn’t even know anything about the Heavenly Sword Tower. However, Yin Long and the other two repeatedly assured them, so everyone tactfully chose to remain silent and just followed their commands.
“Take all of your possessions! We will be moving to a new home! If everything goes well, our God Sword Region will no longer have to hide! Remember, we will become part of the Heavenly Sword Tower from now on, so you must respect their members like how you respect your friends, okay?” Yin Long announced to the members of the God Sword Region.
The others felt a bit uncomfortable about this, but the idea of no longer hiding from the outside world was very tempting for them. They’ve been hidden for a very long time that it almost reached the point of being unbearable. This was certainly good news for them!
“Alright, everyone! Pack up everything! We will leave before nightfall!”
“Yes, Sect Master!”
The Elders and disciples went back to their rooms to begin packing their items.
Yin Long, Gu San, and Ka Wayan glanced at each other with complicated expressions. This place has been their home for many years.
“Brothers, this is for the future of our God Sword Region! We must continue to face forward!” Yin Long patted their shoulders with a smile.
