Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-221

"Seems like they already finished up…" Arriving in the air above the city lord's manor, Xuan Hao looked down at the bodies of the guards and servants being dragged away by a group of figures dressed in completely dark clothes. Hiding all their feature, making it difficult for Xuan Hao to discern anything outside their gender and cultivation realm.

Xuan Hao decided to wait to see if he could find out something about the Nascent Soul Realm Expert that most likely ordered for the massacre to take place, as he stayed still in the air above. Not forgetting to use his pseudo sword domain to hide himself.

"Ah, looks like that person is finally showing himself!" Staring down at the entrance of the manor as a handsome man looking to be in his early thirties walked out and called for one of the people cleaning up the front of the manor, Xuan Hao sat down on his sword with a smile as he prepared to listen in on the conversation going on below him.

"Though I do hope he at least gives some useful information…" With his feet hanging down from the side of his sword, Xuan Hao tilted his head to the side as he supported it with his hand while putting on a thoughtful look.

Like this, Xuan Hao silently began listening to what the Nascent Soul Realm Expert down below was saying without the other party even noticing a person floating a few dozen meters above him.

From this alone, it could be seen how strong the concealment ability of a pseudo domain was!

Without the other party having a pseudo domain himself, it would simply be impossible to spot him!

…

"Great job cleaning the place up so quickly, we are pretty much clean when it comes to this city after we finish moving our people and resources out of here! At that point, the Spring Flower Sect will just find an empty base with nothing in it! Hehe, I really wish I could see their expressions when they arrive!"

Completely oblivious to the fact that there was another person directly above him listening in on what he was saying. The Nascent Soul Realm Expert did not bother thinking about what he was talking about, as the only people around were his own.

"Master, we have finished the clean-up, should we also take care of the rest of the city…?" Standing before the handsome man that had come out of the city lord's manor, one of the figures dressed completely in black came up to him and asked in a voice devoid of any emotions.

"No need to do that, it will take way too long in the first place, and we would just end up wasting time and give the people from the Spring Flower Sect a chance to arrive before we finish moving everything out of here…!" Shaking his head in denial, the man talked a bit more on their direction of retreat and how long it would take with the person before he made his way outside the city lord's manor in the direction of the city gates.

The people of the city did not know that their city lord had already died and still went on with their lives without knowing anything about the massacre that just took place.

Xuan Hao quietly floated above the Nascent Soul Realm Expert as he made his way outside the city and came to a stop in front of a forest located to the north of the city.

Fwoosh~

A sound could be heard as Xuan Hao saw an entrance open up in front of the Nascent Soul Expert leading down into what he could assume was the base that the Nascent Soul Expert had talked about earlier with his subordinates.

"This concealment formation is quite well made… Even I missed it when I searched the place with my divine sense!" Muttering a few words in surprise as he saw the entrance, Xuan Hao discovered once again that there were some things that his divine sense could not pick up on

Maybe his domain could find it if he used it to sense his surroundings… But that was not really possible on such a large scale as his current pseudo sword domain was way too small to even cover a few fractions of what his divine sense could!

"To enter or not to enter…"

Staring down at the entrance below as the Nascent Soul Expert entered, Xuan Hao hesitated for a moment as he did not know if his pseudo sword domain would be able to conceal him from the formation in front of him.

"Hah… Worst case scenario I will just have to fight that guy…" Watching as the formation slowly began to close up the entrance into the base, Xuan Hao steeled himself as he quickly descended and made his way inside the underground base.

Luckily it seemed like the formation did not detect him when he entered, so he would not have to fight the Nascent Soul Realm Expert yet and might even be able to find out where the person is from or what he was planning…

After all, they clearly targeted the Spring Flower Sect and given that they would most likely merge together with them in the future, Xuan Hao would much rather find out about these future enemies of his early on…

…

"The base should be located close to the city over there!" At the same time that Xuan Hao entered the underground base, a group of female cultivators dressed in different kinds of clothes each with the same floral designs on them appeared a few hundred meters away from the city that he had just been in moments ago.

The design in question was a rather beautiful yet simple flower wild flower that could be found almost everywhere in all kinds of different colours.

"Let's go, we can't let them get away!" The group did not stand in front of the city and waited for long as a mature looking woman moved in front as the group entered the city.

If Xuan Hao was present, he would have easily seen that the aura of the female leading the way was in the Nascent Soul Realm! And not only that, but in the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!

Whoosh~

It did not take more than a few seconds for the group to reach the city lord's manor where they found a group of people in the process of removing the corpses of the people who formerly lived in the manor.

"Prepare to attack-"

"Elder Meng, I think we should wait for the leader to show up before attacking! According to what the people from the Seven Fates Sect said, he should be in the Nascent Soul Realm, if we take care of these Core Formation Experts now, we might alert the leader and cause him to run away!" A more petite looking lady among the group walked up and suggested as she could see that the elder in front of her was just about to attack the Core Formation Experts in front of them.

"Xuefeng… We can't just wait around here for them! Don't forget what the people from Seven Fates Sect told us! They will most likely be in the process of retreating from the Heavenly Sky Kingdom already. Catching a few of these people might be the only way for us to quickly find the base that is located around here before they are gone!" Looking back at the petite lady called Xuefeng, Elder Meng did not budge in the slightest as she signalled the others to get ready to launch an attack.

"Xuefeng, take care of the backside and make sure that no one escapes!" Saying this, the group slowly spread out as they encircled the manor.

Xuefeng could only pout in anger after seeing how she got refused before she did as Elder Meng told her and took position behind the manor to block anyone trying to escape.

Boom!

It did not take long for the group of ladies from the Spring Flower Sect to launch their attack as they soon overwhelmed the u group of Core Formation Experts without having as much as a single injury on their side!

Not really that it was a fair fight in the first place, as they had Elder Meng who was in the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm on their side.

Other than that, the petite looking young lady called Xuefeng was also someone in the Nascent Soul Realm! Though not as strong as Elder Meng, she was still way stronger than the few escaping Core Formation Experts trying to leave from the back of the manor…

In the end, the people inside the manor were swiftly dealt with as they had no chance to win against two Nascent Soul Realm Experts and a group of well-trained peak Core Formation Experts from the Spring Flower Sect.

The people inside the city were also awoken as they heard the brief sound of fighting coming from the city lord's manor.

The guards patrolling did not dare to slack for even a moment when they found out where the sound of fighting came from as they hurriedly made their way towards the city lord's manor.
