Death… And Me

Chapter 1790: Help that can't help

The location Roan was talking about was something Rean had prepared in advance. Together with a few of the sect's Formation Masters, Rean traveled into some concealed places near the battlefield and built several teleport formations before hiding them with a concealing formation.

When they arrived there and Rean revealed the teleports, they all saw twenty big teleport formations positioned close to each other. "This... how did you do all of this without me noticing?" Himisve couldn't help but ask.

"Hahaha!" Rean laughed in response, telling him, "First of all, this is a place that no one would use to attack. It's too narrow and easy to be ambushed in. With that being said, you probably never sent more than a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits to take a look here. Such low-level beings would never be able to see through my concealing formation."

Luina couldn't help but ask after hearing that. "Even with that, aren't these quite hard to make. How long did it take?"

Rean shook his head, though. "That's incorrect. Sure, using the conventional method for teleport formations would have taken me at least a few weeks to make this many. However, who said I built them?"

"This..." Luina was taken aback.

Soon after, a few Formation Masters from the Formations Hall in the System Sect came out from several hiding positions. "Sect Master, you came!"

Rean descended from the sky and patted the Formation Masters' shoulders. "You guys did a great job." Rean could tell that they used the Circuitry Runes he taught them, making the teleport formation even more efficient.

"I see! With these teleport formations here, we can return to Jaxto's frontlines and defend your Butiva Country." Himisve finally understood... or so he thought.

"Return?" Roan snorted in response. "Hmph! Didn't you hear what I said? You guys are sharing the borders with Jaxto. There's no need to return. We're teleporting straight to their northeast borders, invading their country. "

"What?!" Himisve thought he heard it wrong. "Did you build teleport formations inside Jaxto as well?"

Rean nodded, answering, "Yes. Of course, I had to make them close to the borders since if I placed them closer to Jaxto's center, they would definitely have been found. In any case, I doubt Jaxto would expect that not only did our war end in less than an hour but that we would come at it soon after. Their defenses in the northeast are as weak as they could possibly be."

*Vup, vup, vup, vup, vup...*

Batches of thousands of soldiers teleported away in each of the teleport formations. Rean's group, of course, was one of the first ones to teleport to the other side.

On the other side, Rean kept the concealing formation running until the soldiers inside finally couldn't fit anymore. Nevertheless, from the moment the concealing formation was turned off to the moment anyone noticed anything wrong, hours had already passed. That also meant that most of the army had already appeared inside Jaxto's borders.

Himisve was still worried, though. "That's good and all. But... Lanteo will most likely ask for Lativan's help if we attack him together, no?"

Hearing that, Rean and Roan faintly smiled in response. "Oh? That? Don't worry, it won't happen.

Soon after, Roan gave the order. "All forces, move out!"

Jaxto was a country controlled by another disciple of the Jamai Sect. His name was Lanteo, and he was also ranked quite low like Himisve.

*Bang!*

"What did you say?! Butiva and Tramara joined forces and are now attacking our northeast border?!" Lanteo was enraged when he heard that. "Those fuckers! They were just pretending to be fighting against each other. Instead, they waited to see who would make the first move and strike back together!" He also got the wrong idea...

Lanteo's Transition Realm subordinates immediately asked back. "Y-Young Master... what should we do now?"

Unlike Himisve, who didn't mind following the ideas of his much more experienced subordinates, Lanteo completely refused the idea. He believed that if he wanted to appear, he would have to take everything into his own hands. "What else can we do?! Bring everyone back! Also, one of you two shitheads. Head to Lativan and ask Kastrabe to immediately attack Butiva. Tell him everything that's happening here. I don't care whether his army is prepared or not. If he doesn't want to become Butiva and Tramara's next target, he has to force them back to defend their countries!"

"R-Report!" Suddenly, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator appeared in a hurry.

"What is it now?!" Lanteo had a bad premonition.

"Sir, one of Kastrabe's two Transition Realm subordinates has arrived through the teleport formation. They're asking to have an audience as soon as possible."

Lanteo gritted his teeth but nodded in response. "Alright, let him through. That will make things faster."

A woman then entered the room in a hurry. "Sir must be Lanteo, right? Young Master Kastrabe asks for help. He's being attacked by the joint forces of Butiva and Brumel Countries. At the moment, both sides have a similar amount of soldiers. However, Butiva and Brumel's forces seemed to have a better commander, and they're losing ground as we speak. Young Master Kastrabe says that if you don't help him soon, you will definitely become Butiva and Brumel's next target."

"Fuck!" One could only imagine how angry Lanteo was at the moment.

One of Lanteo's subordinates then used a Divine Sense message to tell the woman what was happening, much to the woman's shock. "What?! Brumel, Butiva, and Tramara are in it together?! Aren't they afraid of their alliance being fake and someone else attacking their countries instead?!"

That was the main reason everyone thought twice before creating an alliance with other disciples. That's because the disciples they thought to be allied with might be hiding the fact that they were, in fact, enemies allied with others. That could potentially lead to them falling into a trap. Jamai Sect's disciples had always fought against each other for power in the sect, so how could they trust each other that easily?

Cases like Luina and Leticia were very rare. As for Tramara Country... well, they weren't really allies to start with. It's just that Himisve was forced to swear the Jamai Sect Oath and couldn't go against Luina's orders anymore. They didn't know that, of course.
