My Descendants Are My Power

Chapter 272 Blackwood Calls for Help

With every word, it was as if Jesse's very soul was being struck. He took a deep breath and shouted at his disciples, "Silence! How dare you debate the will of the ancient god?"

At his command, the disciples dared not speak another word.

Seven days later.

In the Sunshine Mansion, Jesse emerged from his seclusion, letting out a long sigh. With a flicker of his Storage Ring, he donned a mask and silently made his way toward Cloudview County.

From that day on, many masters within the Emerald Empire, holding pleas for help, traveled across the vast skies toward Azure Cloud.

...

On the roads of the Emerald Empire, for the first time, Katie was not carrying her usual broken pink bow. Instead, she bore her sleeping brother, Joseph.

"We're here, brother!"

On a plain, Katie dismounted from her flying sword, setting her brother down as Joseph finally opened his eyes.

"Just keep sleeping, who can sleep more than you?" Katie muttered.

"Don't think I didn't hear that, little stinker," Joseph replied, rubbing his bleary eyes. Ignoring his sister's comment, he looked ahead to Starlight County, where Walker and many other powerful forces were stationed.

He grinned and said, "Let's go, we don't have much time. We need to find more allies for our family."

Moments later.

The siblings entered Walker's tent, where Joseph sat across from Duke Jon, conversing, while Nate kept winking at Katie, leaving her puzzled and unable to recall who this odd fellow was.

Soon after, Joseph and Katie left the temporary headquarters of Starlight County with grim expressions.

"Brother, they're cowards!"

Katie clenched her teeth in anger. "We even supported Starlight County before, and now they turn their backs on us!"

It was clear they had come seeking help, but Walker had refused!

Joseph simply smiled and said, "It's all too common. We've already approached five of the twelve county dukes looking for evacuation, and it's been the same everywhere. Just keep a normal heart. Let's go to Cedar County; I've heard they have an unparalleled Basic Mastery expert. It's worth a shot."

Katie once again hoisted her instantly sleeping brother onto her back and flew off into the distance.

Back in the tent.

"Nate frowned and said, "Grandpa, that's really not fair. The Blackwoods helped us out in the past, bringing in experts from Cloudview County! Now that the Blackwoods are fighting back home, we just watch? They're doomed, doomed! What about my Katie?"

"What do you know?"

Jon replied frustratedly, "That's a desperate situation! Our family business is ruined, do you want us to risk everything?"

"Hmph!"

Nate slammed the table and stormed out, leaving Jon grinding his teeth in frustration.

In his room, Nate opened a letter given to him by Daniel when he had lost to Katie and left. As he read through the letter, a spark of defiance lit in his eyes.

[Heroes come in two types: the invincible and the influential!]

In the dead of night, Nate tore up the letter, gritted his teeth, and led a group of masters toward Cloudview County, cursing under his breath, "Old fox, trying to trick me into rebellion? I refuse. I'm going to fight! At least I, Walker, still have some backbone!"

[Special Event—Blackwood Calls for Help]

[Your descendants know well that Blackwood alone cannot stand against the Druids without help. They begin to disperse, seeking any possible assistance in the shortest time.]

From the time Nathan went to guard the borders of Azure Cloud alone, all his kin were aware of this.

They did not stop him; they knew Nathan's true intentions and supported him silently from behind. Once again, they scattered in all directions from the city of Emerald Emperor, seeking help everywhere.

Even a little bit of assistance, they were unwilling to give up.

Even on the day of the great battle, their calls for help remained unanswered...

Ethan stared intently at the scene.

He knew clearly, from the moment Nathan returned alone to Cloudview County, this was no longer just Nathan's future plan, but a desperate struggle for all of Blackwood!

Nathan had misjudged his plan, even misjudged the children's resolve!

...

Heading toward Cloudview County, a dark mass of ability vessels above.

Daniel stood at the bow of the ship, releasing carrier pigeons in all directions. It had been three full months with no replies!

Originally, he led the Thunderfire Demon Cave, Demon Hunters Alliance, and Dawn with a total of two thousand ability vessels, but now only half remained. Even Blackwood's subordinates were reduced to half.

"Lord of Demons!"

One of The Thirty-Six Celestial Warriors approached the bow where Daniel stood looking into the sky, kneeling on one knee, his expression filled with a murderous intent, "Another of The Thirty-Six Celestial Warriors has taken our ability vessel and followers. Please, Lord, order us to pursue and bring back his head!"

Daniel did not turn around; his voice was low as he asked, "This journey back to Cloudview County, we have no reinforcements, it's a life and death situation, why haven't you fled?"

The demon cultivator grinned and said, "Since Lord of Demons asked, I'll speak frankly."

"All these years, I've followed Lord of Demons, fought alongside Blackwood. We demons never thought we'd see the light of day again in Cloudview County, and those self-proclaimed righteous Psychics outside dare not attack us because they know we are Blackwood's people."

"I've roamed the world all my life, never have I felt as free as now, fighting in Cloudview County, supporting in Starlight County. Anyone must address me respectfully as a fellow Daoist! They see me, see the mark of Blackwood's subordinate, and know that although I cultivate demonic arts, I am a true warrior, not a scheming demon cultivator hiding in the shadows!"

"Lord of Demons, when you said we were retreating, I was truly scared for a moment."

The demon cultivator laughed heartily, "We demon cultivators aren't so roundabout. I've long considered Cloudview County my home, why should we leave our home because the Druids have come? We've fought for Cloudview County for over thirty years, spent over a hundred years building today's business and status!"

"Lord of Demons brought us back, you didn't leave, Blackwood didn't leave! At least for everything I've fought for in Cloudview County, I'm willing to give my life, only in Cloudview County am I treated as a normal Psychic!"

"As long as you are willing to fight for Cloudview County, even if I die, I have no regrets! Even if I go to the underworld, meet the King of Hell, in those eighteen levels of hell, I will still honor you, honor Blackwood as my lord!"

Daniel felt the strong winds blowing around the ability vessel, he gripped the mast tightly, looking back at everything behind him, that was also the land of Cloudview County.

Unknowingly, the family had already established such a reputation in Cloudview County.
