“I’m getting tired of this, Tong let us just do the usual, it won’t take that long.”

“But young master, if we escalate the problem it will take valuable time. I must remind you that the Patriarch ordered us to take care of this swiftly, there is much at stake here.”

At this moment the old elder from the Soaring Dragon Sect was talking with the young master. They were both floating in front of their flagship and their conversation was private. The young master started chuckling as he replied.

“You worry too much, how long could this take? They don’t even have as many nascent soul mobs as we do?”

“I worry about their barrier, it won’t be easy to get past it, It’s not something that I expected to see from such a small sect…”

The old man narrowed his eyes as the barrier was large enough to encompass the whole city. Most of the sects would not make protective barriers this big and focus on protecting the main inner sect. This left the outer sects and cities around them mostly unprotected from actual strong opponents.

From Tong’s perspective, the large barrier that was here wasn’t far behind their own. It would take a prolonged assault to crack this large nut. They might have to use the middle sized sects and ask them for reinforcements.

This was of course something that he wished to avoid. He knew that the middle sized sects would probably stall for time and would put in the minimal effort. There was also the problem of the Azure Emperor and the other sect that they had a shaky agreement with.

If they took too long here they would be showing weakness. This could be put up to debate if their next plan would go into fruition.

“You’re worried about that?”

Tong nodded while looking at the young master who was grinding.

“Damn, it really is a powerful one… this will cost me a big chunk of my points…”

The young man started mumbling to himself about some points. The old man had witnessed the strange behaviours of this young man a long time ago. At first young master Wang hid this quirky nature away but the more power he gained the more relaxed around others he became.

It was clear that he tossed all pretense to the side and let his true nature emerge. The old man figured out some terms like ‘NPC’ to which the young master referred. It was not a gentle term that mostly stripped anyone of their humanity whenever he called them as such.

“But not like I can’t farm these points right back, I bet this sect has some fat spirit stones that I can collect and there are enough nascent soul mobs to get everything back and more!”

Tong looked at the young man wiggle his index finger in front of his own face. This was something he did from time to time as well. Most of the time nothing happened but sometimes strange things would appear out of thin air or other bizarre effects.

“Ten minutes is up, now decide mega milk? I like ya and I want ya, now we can do this the easy way or the hard way, the choice is yours! What will it be? Let me help you make the right decision!”

Suddenly the large barrier that was surrounding the whole Spirit Spring City and the sect started to rumble. Like glass, it shattered into many tiny pieces and the people that were beneath were revealed.

Tong was astonished by the craftiness of this young man. He knew that if the youth was not so enthralled by the female form he would make a great patriarch. It was clear that he had the talent and had some kind of fortunate encounter.

It took him a couple of years to achieve what took half a lifetime to lesser men. His rise to power was like a meteor that could not be stopped. Like a proper cultivator, his path was paved with the corpses of his predecessors. No one on his level remained and now he was next in line for the throne.

“How could this be, how could they disable our grand barrier? Do we have a traitor in our midst?”

The United Element Sect was in chaos, their cannons that were manned by the lesser cultivators turned aim and every battle-hardened veteran was ready to strike.

The ten nascent soul elders from the Soaring Dragon Sect pushed their palms forward and caused a massive amount of pressure to fall on the entire city. Through this, anyone below the nascent soul felt like they were at the bottom of the sea.

Some of the elders that were able to resist from the United Element side countered this effect with their own cultivation but it wasn’t enough. The Soaring Dragon Sect came prepared with many masters in the late stage.

Any of these men and women that were here could become a Patriarch of their own sect if they wanted. They still chose to remain in the middle reaches of the empire. That was the best spot for cultivation and far more enticing than a big fish in a small pond scenario.

One particular man with red hair charged out in front of the others. He was radiating a massive amount of energy. From Tong’s perspective, he was still only a middle stage nascent soul cultivator.

There was something strange about him though. The red energy surrounding his body that looked like a coat of flames felt somewhat off. Even though he was someone at the pinnacle of the nascent soul he felt like he would not come out unscathed if he touched that energy.

Thus he moved to intercept this man, it was clear that he was dangerous. Before the battle could start, they were interrupted by a booming voice of the woman that they came here for.

“Please stop! No one has to die today, I will come with you!”

Both sides stopped whatever they were doing and looked to Zhang Liena who flew forward and placed herself in front of Huo Qiang.

“Are you sure you want to do this? I say we fight… how do you expect me to face him if I just let them take you like this?”

“I know, but the lives of our people and family members are more important. Even if we win today, there is nowhere that we can hide…”

“Good, you came to a decision, let us depart then.”

Tong hovered down before the man covered in crimson flames. He still was ready for a fight, his hand clenched on his sword and weary of standing so close to two nascent soul masters.

“Don’t worry, the rumors about the young master are over-exaggerated. Your matriarch will be well cared for and any offspring will become part of the Soaring Dragon Sect.”

Tong put on a stone-cold face while talking as he knew that this was total horseshit. The woman that they would be taking with them will be lucky if she came out alive after everything was over.

Most of the women end up dried up husks of their former selves. Then if they survived they were tossed out of the young master’s peak to fend for themselves. Some remained in the sect out of necessity while others took their own lives as they were unable to cope with what had happened.

“Do you really want us to believe that?”

Huo Qiang snorted while backing off, he looked to the young master in question that was in the process of licking his lips. Soon he stood before his prize, Zhang Liena, the late Patriarch’s wife.

Tong was close by and ready, if anyone tried to pull something he would need to act. He did not like this grandson of the Patriarch but if something happened to him, then his head could roll.

Even his status might not be able to shield him from the Patriarch’s rage and he knew that the old man doted on this young master here. He was convinced that the young man was the future and if the future was gone then he feared that the Patriarch could do something drastic.

Luckily it didn’t seem that anything out of the ordinary would be happening. While the man with red hair moved slowly back the woman begrudgingly approached them. The young master Wang didn’t hide his lustful gaze. It was clear that it was fixated on the woman’s rather large chest which put most of the other concubines to shame.

Just as with any other concubine, Tong knew that the young master would not be able to show restraint. It didn’t matter that they were in public and that everyone from the United Element Sect was staring daggers at them. They could only watch as their Matriarch got harassed.

But just before the man could grasp that chest, Tong felt an attack coming from the side. It was strange as it was easy to read, he didn’t even have to move as it fizzled away into nothingness just from getting close to his nascent soul aura.

The attack was followed by an angry-looking girl. Just from the face, he could tell that the person was related to this matriarch and the chest size was quite similar. The biggest difference was the height as this girl was about a head shorter.

“Leave my sister alone!”

“Oh? Isn’t that a feisty one! They are sisters? Even better!”

Tong wanted to sigh as he saw his young master’s eyes glitter. He instantly knew that the girl that just attacked would be taken as well. Even though the girl charged forward she was restrained by the people from the United Element Sect.

It was clear that they wanted to remove her from the situation. Alas, it was too late, the young master had made his decision so he needed to follow up on it.

“Release the girl, she will also come with us.”

The young master nodded and moved his attention to the United Sect Matriarch. His hand reached out but before the fingers could sink into the goods another event interrupted them. Tong could hear a strange buzzing sound and instead of soft flesh, the grasping hand collided with something.

“What? But I used the spirit points… how could this barrier go against the system?”

It was the defensive barrier that was once again operating. Tong did not know how his master removed it in the first place but it seemed that he didn’t know why it was running either.

The barrier wasn’t the only problem as the whole city began to rumble. The floating castle in the background began to glow in a golden light and Tong could see that it started moving towards them.

“How could this be? The Patriarch’s citadel is unable to function without his presence… could this mean?”

The people from the United Element’s Sect looked to the glowing castle with wide eyes with one person in particular looking with quite the zeal.
