1180 A Proposal
"Lord, there is someone who wishes to meet you."
A servant appeared in front of Arcturus and bowed his head.
"Who is it?" The Dragon Lord questioned.
"It is the Leader of the Ashenhelm Clan, Soren Thorn."
"Ashenhelm?" A frown appeared on Arcturus's face. He recognized this name.
"It is one of 'those' clans.
And the Leader Soren Thorn is a Complete Saint." The servant informed. The reason he could say the name of a Complete Saint so casually was because he himself was a Divine Stage Cultivator, in his eyes, although Soren was strong, he still wasn't someone worthy of respect.
"Why is he here?" Arcturus questioned.
"He said he came with a proposal. When I tried asking Lord."
what that is, he said he would only reveal it to the Dragon "That is quite some arrogance," Arcturus commented.
"Those people believe that they are different from others because they walk on a 'complete' path." The servant snorted. Clearly, he didn't like these new 'Complete Cultivators' who have appeared out of nowhere.
'If only the Lord gave us the Order, I would have annihilated all these new Clans from our continent.'
The servant thought inwardly.

"Call him."
Suddenly, Arcturus spoke up.
"Hmm?" The Servant was confused. He only came here to report as a form of formality, he didn't think that Arcturus would actually agree to meet with that bastard.
"We can at least hear what he has to say, but do warn him that if what he says doesn't interest me,
There will be consequences."
Hearing those words, a big smile formed on the servant's face as he bowed his head and, "As you command, my Lord."
The servant disappeared.
A few minutes later, the servant returned, bringing two more beings with him, both were Complete Saints.
"Lord." The servant kneeled, expecting the two people with him to do the same. The two Complete Saints looked at each other, they were prepared to bow their heads, but kneeling...
"Dragon Lord."
In the end, however, one of them kneeled on the floor, the other following his actions.
A satisfactory smile appeared on Arcturus's face as he saw the scene.
Setting a clear power dynamic before any conversation was important, especially when meeting with people of these 'new' Clans. Their arrogance was off the charts, and of course, that should be the case since they were once the members of the Ancestral Order, the strongest power in Yrniel that even world leaders don't dare to resist.
Now, however, things were different, these people were no longer part of the Ancestral Order, or more precisely, they didn't have the Order's protection anymore.
The reason behind that was simple, Arcturus already knew what these clans were thinking, these people weren't exactly loyal to the Ancestral Order anymore, and if he knew that, there was no way the Ancestral Order wouldn't. Since the Ancestral Order doesn't plan to involve themselves in the matters regarding Yrniel any time soon, they wouldn't come out to protect a bunch of traitors either.
Since these people had lost their protectors because of their own foolishness, they had no right to be arrogant anymore.
"I am sure you came here after hearing my warning, correct?" Arcturus questioned in a cold, emotionless tone.
"That is correct, Lord Arcturus. I assure you that we are not here to waste your precious time.
We came here with a proposal,
A proposal that would help you get your hands on Nux Leander."
The moment the name 'Nux Leander' was mentioned, a slight change in Arcturus's expression could be seen.
"Speak."
He spoke.
Soren smiled inwardly, then, he raised his head and,
"My plan of action is simple.
The real reason Nux Leander is hard to get is that he has access to an unknown dimension that no one else does, he can hide there all his life and no one would be able to find him.
I am sure this is what's troubling Lord Arcturus as well."
"..."
Arcturus didn't say anything, but Soren reasoned that if he hadn't died yet, what he said must be true.
"My Clan will challenge ExceedoGenesis and once they accept the Challenge and come out, Lord Arcturus's subordinates can capture him."
Soren spoke and suddenly, he felt an intense pressure pushing his body into the ground.
"Khawwkk!"
Soren coughed out blood as he widened his eyes in horror, he knew Arcturus was strong because he was a Phase 4 Cultivator, but Soren himself wasn't weak either.
He was a Peak Complete Saint, he had seen and sparred with a fair share of Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivators and although he didn't win, he didn't get overpowered to this extent. Soren knew he would be turned into meat paste if Arcturus raised the pressure even a little more.
Half of his body functions had already stopped working and he could feel that he was about to lose consciousness.
Soren realized.
He underestimated one of the strongest cultivators in Yrniel.
The Dragon Lord was much more powerful than he expected.
"Are you prepared to face the consequences, Soren?"
Arcturus questioned.
There was no way someone like Nux would accept any challenge from any clan right now, if it was that easy to handle him, then he would have hired any random clan to do that and be done with it.
Coming up with something like this and calling it a 'plan' was no different than mocking Arcturus.
"L-Lord A-A-Arcturus, please let me finish..."
Soren, trembling on the ground, spoke in a hoarse voice.
Arcturus narrowed his eyes, he could kill this man any instant, he, however, decided to give him another chance and retracted his pressure,
"You have 1 minute."
"I do not plan to target Nux. I want to target things around Nux. The things he values the most.
I plan to take all of that away from him and push him into a corner."
Soren spoke and Arcturus, who was ready to kill him the moment the minute he gave him was over, finally decided to seriously listen to what this man had to say.
"Share your complete plan with me, without omitting any details."
The Dragon lord ordered.
