The King didn't intervene in the battle between the Night Mountain Sect and the Black Lake Sect.

The Night Mountain Sect claimed that these disciples had invaded their territory. Thus, the sect was now punishing these disciples for this crime.

Meanwhile, the Black Lake Sect claimed that the warriors of the Night Mountain Sect were lying. They had secretly entered the Black Lake Sect and kidnapped their genius disciples.

The reputation of the Black Lake Sect was much better than the Night Mountain Sect in the martial world. Many people felt inclined to agree on the Black Lake Sect's side.

The Night Mountain Sect was considered to utilize evil techniques. In reality, the Night Mountain Sect's techniques had been created after observing the demonic techniques.

They were essentially demonic techniques that could be activated using Humanely Ardor. Just like this technique of absorbing the talent of these Black Lake Sect's disciples and distributing it among their own disciples. This was considered a rather evil technique.

When Azaroth heard about this conflict, he clicked his tongue in annoyance that he couldn't join it at this moment.

Noah and Laura had to split up for more important tasks. These would become their foundations, so he couldn't ask them to skip it and head straight for this conflict.

He summoned Noah and Laura to his office and gave them their next instructions.

Azaroth spoke with a serious look, "Noah, you are going to depart for the battlefield of this Glerian Kingdom. You are going to battle their enemies except for the Sinyalian Kingdom. Perform wonderfully and build a great prestige among the people near the border town. In fact, even the soldiers of the other brigades should greatly trust you."

"Yes, master!" Noah spoke confidently even though he had no idea how to accomplish this task.

He was, however, used to being assigned duties he had no understanding about. He was now aware of how to obtain information for that particular task.

Then Azaroth turned towards Laura, who stood there with a nervous expression on her face.

"As for you, Laura. You need to head out and hunt the bandit camps all over the Glerian Kingdom. This task isn't easier than Noah's task. Don't mistake yourself into thinking in that direction."

"You will need to deal with the tricks of these bandits. You will need to first locate their base and then form a plan to deal with them. Fortunately, you possess Wood Ardor and the power to sense. It would likely take some time for you to get used to this job, but you should be proficient in it. Oh right, make sure that saving the survivors is your priority. If you just destroy a bandit camp with no eyewitness to spread the news about it, then your task would essentially be useless." Azaroth seriously spoke.

Noah and Laura understood that they had to save the hostages at all costs.

Soon, Azaroth turned towards Noah again, "Once you feel that you have trained William enough, send him back. I have another task for him."

Noah nodded devotedly, "I am going to make him so strong that he won't lose to anyone!"

Azaroth had a sweat drop behind his head as he imagined Noah training William. He somewhat pitied the guy as Noah's training wasn't something anyone could take.

Suddenly, Azaroth felt someone contacting his spirit. Someone was using his Mystical Spiritual Connecting Ring to contact him.

"What is it?" He spoke with a neutral tone. He had now found out that it was Tiana who was trying to contact him.

"Master, I need your assistance," Tiana spoke with a rather pleading tone.

"Speak," Azaroth asked while wondering what kind of assistance did Tiana need. Was an enemy attacking her sect? That felt unlikely.

If it was an enemy, Tiana should have dealt with him using the arrays Azaroth left behind. Then what could it be?

Azaroth didn't need to spend such deep thought over it. Tiana revealed the reason quite quickly as she spoke, "You must be aware of the battle between the Black Lake Sect and the Night Mountain Sect. Actually, I have a good friend named Christina, who is the young inheritress of the Black Lake Sect. She has requested for my support in her sect's battle against the Night Mountain Sect."

"I see. Why should we join in this fight?" Azaroth asked her with a neutral tone. It didn't seem as if he was interested in joining this conflict.

Tiana had expected this response from Azaroth, but she still tried to convince him by speaking, "Master, if we join this battle, my disciples can gain combat experience and also have a good chance of looting some treasures of the Night Mountain Sect."

Azaroth smirked in response and then spoke, "Your reasoning could use some work. But very well. I am up for it."

Tiana was utterly delighted to hear this phrase from Azaroth.

"Let's meet 2 days later. We will depart for this battle then." Azaroth spoke as he cut off the connection with Tiana.

Tiana immediately summoned all her subordinates and informed them that they were joining this battle between the Black Lake Sect and the Night Mountain Sect from the Black Lake Sect's side.

She had a single subordinate who was still not proficient in using battle techniques. Thus, Tiana believed it would be best to ask her to remain behind and control the formations here.

That disciple was quite relieved to receive this task. She wasn't confident in fighting against her peers yet.

Thus, Tiana and her ten disciples were going to join this battle between the Black Lake Sect and the Night Mountain Sect.

Tiana picked up her Voice Transmission Stone and sent a message to Christina, "My master has agreed. We are coming to back you up."

"Really?! I am so happy that you are on my side, Tiana. My mother was actually a little worried since three of our elders have been poisoned by that immoral master of the Night Mountain Sect." Christina spoke.

"Poisoned, huh?" Tiana whispered. She believed that Azaroth could deal with any poison but only if he wanted to.

She couldn't promise anything on his behalf.

Christina noticed that Tiana wasn't responding back and continued speaking, "Ask your master to stay cautious of the poison. It's very difficult to deal with it."

"Alright. I will inform my master about this. Anything else that you can tell me about this battle. How is it going?" Tiana asked.

"We were more or less winning the battle when that poisonous outburst occurred. I was fighting on another battlefield, so I was saved. But three of our elders and many of our disciples are down for the count. That battlefield is all but lost."

"There are numerous battlefields. We are winning some and losing some, so the battle is nearly equal right now. With the addition of your sect, it should hopefully tip the scales in our favor," Christina spoke.

Tiana was slightly nervous as she heard Christina's words. It was just that Christina seemed to be expecting a large backup when in reality, the backup would comprise of just 12 individuals.

However, these 12 individuals would include Azaroth, who alone had the capability to change the results of the battlefield.

This wasn't something that the Black Lake Sect would know, though. And she didn't know how she should explain that. If she praised Azaroth too much, they would think she was just boasting.

Thus, Tiana remained silent and decided to let things go as they were. When the situation arrives, Azaroth would be there to handle it.
