At this moment, Philbert Duncan and three mighty realm cultivators by his side were sitting around a blazing fire, eating freshly hunted wild game.
"If push comes to shove, we'll have to head into the Azure Rock Forest and wait for Ethan Smith," someone remarked.
"Indeed. As long as we avoid direct confrontation, we should be fine. We have no desire to openly clash with the Hunters, nor would they dare to provoke our Cloud Sect," another person chimed in.
Philbert Duncan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly curled his lips into a cold smile.
"Why bother with such overcomplication?" Philbert sneered with disdain.
Holding a fire stick in his hand, he tapped it repeatedly against the ground, a mocking grin playing across his face.
"Does Mr. Duncan have a better idea then?" someone asked curiously.
Philbert casually replied, "While it's true we can't start a war with the Hunters, that doesn't mean the team leader can't be replaced."
