Chapter 2792: The Good Samaritan, Offering Advice!
"Where is the Secret Realm, and how can one enter it? Since it was suppressed there, does that mean it’s still there now?"
Carson Flores calmly answered, "The Secret Realm was discovered by a certain Sect, and a passage was established to enter it. Now, it is probably inaccessible, but that doesn’t matter because the Starry Sky Magical Beast has already left."
"It’s left?"
The voice in the mist was filled with doubt, "Didn’t you say it was suppressed by Norric with a single sword under the Abyss? How could it have left?"
Carson replied, "Because I released the Sword Talisman left on the sword that was suppressing it. Once the Sword Talisman disappeared, it freed itself."
The Starry Sky Magical Beast in the mist pressed on, "Where did it go? You need to be clear. Don’t forget, my task is to find it."
Nerisse Blaine and Maedryn Cobb looked at Carson in shock, as if recognizing him for the first time.
Carson had told Nerisse Blaine before that he had helped a Starry Sky Magical Beast. In gratitude, the Starry Sky Magical Beast had given him a Starry Sky Magic Demon Snake.
Nerisse had always been curious, wondering how such a powerful entity like a Starry Sky Magical Beast could have been helped by Carson, given his own strength.
Now Nerisse finally understood: Carson had unlocked the Sword Talisman and released the Starry Sky Magical Beast, restoring its freedom.
No wonder the Starry Sky Magical Beast gave Carson a Starry Sky Magic Demon Snake in return. This was no small favor but a tremendous act of gratitude!
Carson had unraveled the Sword Talisman left by Norric!
Is this something anyone can just do?
Although Nerisse was already aware of Carson’s capabilities, her understanding of him was once again refreshed.
Maedryn Cobb, on the other hand, had known nothing. In his mind, Carson was weak, perhaps a little shrewd and smart, but that did not change his essence of being weak.
Yet Carson’s words caused Maedryn to question himself: Had he ever truly understood Carson?
Had his own arrogance blinded him to the truth?
Carson, with a calm demeanor, responded, "I released the Sword Talisman, revealing a communication array within it to contact Norric."
"I, Crimson Mad—oh, that’s the name of the Starry Sky Magical Beast elder—we conversed with Norric. Crimson Mad and Norric had their negotiations, and then Crimson Mad accompanied me around that world before leaving it for the Crimson Immortal Domain."
"He promised to return the sword to Norric, so he will surely go to the Crimson Immortal Domain, to Norric’s War God Mansion, to find Norric. I have a feeling that once there, he might stay by Norric’s side. Even if not, Norric will surely know of his whereabouts."
"As long as you go to Norric’s War God Mansion in the Crimson Immortal Domain, you will definitely find Crimson Mad Elder. I’ve given you such detailed information; does this fulfill your conditions?"
The mist fell silent before speaking again after a while, "So Crimson Mad is an adult Starry Sky Magical Beast?"
Carson nodded, "Yes."
"And Norric can suppress Crimson Mad with just one sword? Doesn’t that mean he’s even more formidable? As a Starry Sky Magical Beast, if I go looking for him, will I also be suppressed by a single sword, or even killed?"
Carson was momentarily taken aback, thinking to himself, "Whether he kills you or not, how would I know? That’s not part of our negotiation terms."
"You let us go, and I tell you where to find the Starry Sky Magical Beast. This ends our deal; what happens afterwards isn’t my concern."
Thinking this, Carson maintained a warm tone, offering advice, "Norric tends to be reasonable, not someone who kills indiscriminately. Crimson Mad was suppressed because he slaughtered the Sect of Humanity, hence Norric suppressed him as a punishment. Yet, even so, he did not kill Crimson Mad."
"Even after being suppressed for such a long time, Crimson Mad willingly returned to find Norric without holding a grudge. This shows Norric’s strong personal charm."
"Norric is the leader of the War God Mansion in the Crimson Immortal Domain. With high status and immense power, he’s truly commendable. However, after our conversation, I feel he’s quite easygoing. He even invited me to visit the War God Mansion."
"There’s no need for you to be afraid. If you’re worried, when you arrive at the Crimson Immortal Domain, find someone to help inquire about Crimson Mad’s whereabouts at the War God Mansion. If you don’t show up yourself and avoid direct contact with Norric, haven’t you nothing to fear?"
Carson enthusiastically provided suggestions, considering that his life was in the other’s hands. Although the other party had sworn an oath, helping a bit more might make them release him more straightforwardly, wouldn’t it?
The voice of the Starry Sky Magical Beast suddenly took on a hint of surprise, "Norric invited you to the Crimson Immortal Domain, to his War God Mansion as a guest?"
Carson naturally nodded, "Yeah, I told you, Norric is quite approachable. You have nothing to worry about..."
The Starry Sky Magical Beast interrupted Carson, "Then I’ll go to the Crimson Immortal Domain with you. Can you help me find out Crimson Mad’s whereabouts, is that okay?"
