Chapter 1799: Chapter 1799: Why Don’t We Just Pretend to Be Slaves This Time?


"Do you remember her appearance? Manifest her looks, right, along with the colorful carriage she was riding..."


"Yes!"


Carson Flores remained silent, quietly waiting.


For ordinary cultivators, when traveling, a large group often uses a large Flying Boat, while a small group tends to use a flying shuttle or similar flying magical treasure. However, sedan chairs, colorful carriages, etc., are typically used for pomp and circumstance, symbolizing status.


This is akin to choosing a carriage or sedan when a horse would be faster for the sake of status.


If one can use several Double-Headed Flood Dragons to pull a carriage and roam freely in the Dragon Clan’s territory, it indicates that the person’s status is undoubtedly high-ranking within the Dragon Clan!


A very young woman, maybe the daughter of a high-ranking member of the Dragon Clan, wasn’t there mention of strong guards by her side?


Doesn’t this just scream the demeanor of a noblewoman traveling?


Very soon, the image was completed.


It depicted a very prestigious carriage, covered in colorful decorations, predominantly pink, rich in feminine aura.


The carriage was pulled by four Double-Headed Flood Dragons, exuding tremendous grandeur. The woman peeking out from the window appeared to be in her twenties, very beautiful, but with unapologetic arrogance in her brow.


"This is the Azure Dragon Palace’s carriage!"


Rhys Fox suddenly spoke, looking surprised, pointing at the front of the carriage: "Look here, it has the Azure Dragon Palace’s insignia, yet this time it’s not flying the Azure Dragon Palace’s flag..."


Carson Flores pondered and asked, "So, this woman is a relative of someone significant in the Azure Dragon Palace. This trip might be a personal voyage, hence not marked with the Azure Dragon Palace’s insignia?"


"Very likely!"


Rhys Fox’s eyes brightened: "If she really went to the Puddington Tribe, then our opportunity has come!"


Carson Flores smiled and said, "To have leverage in hand, the hostage must be important enough. It seems this woman from the Azure Dragon Palace has a special status, probably quite important!"


Rhys Fox nodded, eyes gleaming with excitement: "As long as her status is significant enough, if we can capture her as a hostage, we could completely dominate the ensuing negotiation, possibly even overturn the situation."


Carson Flores nodded: "I agree, this beats sitting here waiting for doom!"


Rhys Fox punched the table hard: "Let’s do it, I’ll gather strong members of our sect and execute a sneak attack, hit them hard!"


Carson Flores asked, "Do your people have enough strength to pull off a sneak attack without ending up in a deadly trap? That would be a joke."


Rhys Fox laughed arrogantly: "Our Hundred Tribulations Gate has been able to contend with the Dragon Clan for so long because we have our own trump cards. Otherwise, with the temperament of those demons, they would have wiped us out long ago."


Carson Flores nodded: "It’s about the dignity of the Hundred Tribulations Gate. If we’re going to act, we must win. Otherwise, if war breaks out, there may be no room for further negotiation, and it might even hasten our demise."


Rhys Fox nodded solemnly: "That’s a given, Carson Special Envoy, will you be part of this?"


Carson Flores smiled, "I will definitely join in. Don’t worry, although I’m only in the True Immortal Realm, I’m quite fast at escaping when fighting breaks out. Even a Heavenly Immortal might not catch up to me, so I won’t be a burden."


Rhys Fox laughed: "Good, I’ll go prepare right now!"


Very soon, Rhys Fox assembled eight Heavenly Immortals, including the Hundred Tribulations Gate’s trump card, Peak Heavenly Immortal Ariel Boyd.


The group wasted no words, leaving the Hundred Tribulations Gate, heading toward the Puddington Tribe. Two days later, they reached the outskirts of the Puddington Tribe.


"Going any further in will be the territory of the Puddington Tribe. If we just go in like this, we will surely alert the people of the Puddington Tribe. We must find that woman and break through the defenses to capture her in the shortest time possible."


"I object!"


Carson Flores immediately objected: "The strength of the Puddington Tribe might not be much weaker than yours. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to stalemate for so long. If you charge in recklessly, once detected, you might harm some of their people, but capturing that woman will be nearly impossible."


"Given how prestigious that woman is, her guards must be strong, and regardless of her capabilities, she likely carries several magical treasures for protection. Capturing her quickly is virtually impossible."


Rhys Fox frowned: "I understand the chances aren’t high, but we have to get close. There’s no way they wouldn’t notice us."


Carson Flores smiled slightly: "We need to infiltrate before making our move, creating confusion will increase our chances because they won’t be able to figure out the situation quickly, allowing us to fish in troubled waters."


While Rhys Fox and others exuded strong auras, making detection inevitable even with a sudden charge, the battle situation would be clear. However, if they infiltrated first and then acted, their chances of success were much higher.


Rhys Fox smiled bitterly: "We’d love to infiltrate, but given that humans are slaves in Dragon Clan territory, our appearance would be far too conspicuous to go unnoticed."


Carson Flores blinked, suddenly laughing: "Since humans are all slaves, then why don’t we just pose as slaves?"
