Chapter 265 - Arriving At The Raging Flame Sect...
The distance between the Flying Sword Sect and the Raging Flame Sect was not small by any means and even with Xuan Hao carrying Shu Yao and Feng Chen with his domain, it would still take a few days before they arrived.
During this time, Shu Yao and Feng Chen were both amazed that they were flying through the air and kept looking around at the sceneries passing by below them.
This was the first time they had seen the world passing by below them from high above as they kept talking with each other about what they saw down below. Leaving Xuan Hao to just look at them as they acted like two children that had found something new and interesting to play with.
"You two… After you reach the Domain Lord Realm, you will also be able to fly like me by yourself instead of being carried like this!"
Saying this, Xuan Hao watched as both of them finally calmed down a bit as they seemed to have gotten a bit more determination to increase their cultivation in the future…
Like this, Xuan Hao, Shu Yao and Feng Chen spend the next two days flying through the air without rest before reaching the area where the Raging Flame Sect's main sect was located.
Shu Yao and Feng Chen had already gotten used to flying by this point and were not as excited as they had been at the start.
"So, this is the Raging Flame Sect… To be honest, it is my first time seeing it. Have any of you been here before…?
Landing a few miles away from the Raging Flame Sect, Xuan Hao was the first one to speak as he asked both Feng Chen and Shu Yao.
"Hm… I have never been here before personally, but Feng Chen should have gone once in the best during a conflict… If I'm not wrong, you ended up fighting their current Sect Master at that time to a draw…"
Shu Yao shook her head and revealed the fact that Feng Chen had actually gone to the Raging Flame Sect to fight with their Sect Master in the past.
"Haha… I did indeed visit in the past after they took over our spirit stone mine… But I couldn't really do much to get it back, they simply had more Nascent Soul Experts and if I stayed for any longer, they might have killed me on the spot and gone ahead and destroyed the Flying Sword Sect…"
Laughing awkwardly as he recalled what happened in the past, Feng Chen did not really have much to say as he told Xuan Hao why he had come to fight with the Raging Flame Sect in the past.
"I see… Well, we should be more than cable of dealing with them now… By the way… How many Nascent Soul Realm Experts did you say the Raging Flame Sect had?"
"They have eight… Why…?"
Feeling that there was something wrong from Xuan Hao's voice, Feng Chen suddenly felt that something was wrong as he answered the question.
"From what I can sense through my divine sense, there should at least be 16 people in the Nascent Soul Realm currently present inside the Raging Flame Sect…"
"Wha-"
"How come they have so many Nascent Soul Realm Experts all of a sudden!?"
Interrupting Feng Chen, Shu Yao asked in a slightly confused voice. Clearly not expecting that the Raging Flame Sect suddenly got so many Nascent Soul Realm Experts.
She also began to worry about the elders from her sect and the Flying Sword Sect that had gone out to deal with the branches of the Raging Flame Sect… They might encounter a way heavier resistance than expected…
"You two can try and contact the elders, I will go and see the current situation before we attack… There is no way that the Raging Flame Sect suddenly gained so many Nascent Soul Realm Experts all of a sudden!"
Instructing the two sect masters, Xuan Hao hid himself with the help of his domain before making his way towards the Raging Flame Sect.
Determined to find out the reason why so many Nascent Soul Realm Experts had suddenly shown up… And most importantly, where they came from!
"I will contact my elders; you should contact yours and make sure everything is fine on their side!"
Seeing Xuan Hao disappear in the direction of the Raging Flame Sect, Shu Yao quickly calmed down before taking out her communication talisman and contacting the elders from the Spring Flower Sect.
Not forgetting to remind Feng Chen to do the same thing.
…
At the Raging Flame Sect, the Vice Sect Master had finished the last few agreements with the Azure Sky Kingdom's envoy and watched on from atop his mountain peak as the army of the Azure Sky Kingdom slowly began to make its way through his sect and into the Heavenly Sky Kingdom in an orderly fashion without causing any trouble for the disciples or elders of the Raging Flame Sect in the process.
"I really have to admit, this went way smoother than I had first expected… By the way general… How long do you think it would take for your army to fully enter the Heavenly Sky Kingdom?"
Gazing down at the endless line of soldiers entering the Heavenly Sky Kingdom through his sect with no end in sight, the Vice Sect Master of the Raging Flame Sect could not help himself from asking as he turned towards the general of the Azure Sky Kingdom standing only a few meters away from him together with another two experts at the Nascent Soul Realm standing shoulder to shoulder with him.
After watching the Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Azure Sky Kingdom show up, the Vice Sect Master could not help but feel a sense of awe and fear towards the Azure Sky Kingdom.
Nine Nascent Soul Realm Experts!
The Azure Sky Kingdom had sent over Nine Nascent Soul Realm Experts!
The thing that caused the Vice Sect Master to be amazed, however, was not this! Instead, it was the fact that even the weakest person among those nine Nascent Soul Realm Experts were at the fourth stage!
It really was a good idea that we chose to work together with them… If not…
Thinking about the power that the Azure Sky Kingdom had shown on the surface already made the Vice Sect Master feel fear… Even the Heavenly Sky Kingdom would have a hard time getting so many Nascent Soul Realm Experts at that level together in a short time. Let alone having them go to war against an enemy kingdom where they could lose their life!
"Hm… It should take about 2 or 3 days before we have fully transported our troops and different resources through your sect, but I do hope we would still be able to use this route to transfer new supplies through when the battle begins… Is that fine with you?"
"Y-yes… Yes!"
Not noticing how nervous the Vice Sect Master of the Raging Flame Sect had suddenly become, the general answered his question after thinking about it for a few seconds. Even his request for continuous use of the route going through the Raging Flame Sect was easily agreed upon by the nervous Vice Sect Master as the general smiled happily while secretly saying something to one of the people standing beside him.
Nodding his head, the person quickly disappeared back in the direction that the troops of the Azure Sky Kingdom were coming from.
"I think I will get going as well. After all, I need to make sure that the troops get settled down properly before we begin moving out… If you will excuse me, Vice Sect Master."
"No need! It was great meeting you general!"
Waving his hand as a goodbye towards the general, the Vice Sect Master watched as the remaining Nascent Soul Realm Expert along with the general left the mountain peak. Leaving behind only him.
"Hah…"
Letting out a breath that he had unknowingly been holding, the Vice Sect Master looked up at the sky with a slightly helpless expression crossing his face for a moment before being replaced by one filled with determination.
"We have to endure for just a bit more and we will be able to deal with the Flying Sword Sect! At that time, when the Sect Master returns, the Raging Flame Sect will be way stronger than before… But if he doesn't return…"
Muttering something to himself quietly, a small amount of killing intent appeared in the Vice Sect Master's eyes as a plan slowly began to take shape inside of his head.
"Vice Sect Master! There is news from our spies in the north and the east of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom! It looks like the Spring Flower Sect and the Flying Sword Sect is up to something…"
Just as the Vice Sect Master was deep in thought, one of the Nascent Soul Realm Elders rushed up the mountain together with a person dressed like a normal mortal. Looking like a normal middle-aged man. The only difference between him and a normal mortal being the fact that he was someone in the Core Formation Realm…
"Really!? What is it…?"
Hearing what the Nascent Soul Realm Elder said, the Vice Sect Master suddenly grew nervous all of a sudden.
The Spring Flower Sect and Flying Sword Sect had always been on good terms with each other and was also one of the reasons why the Raging Flame Sect did not dare to carelessly attack the Flying Sword Sect…
Their spy network had picked up something happening in both sects at the same time!
The Vice Sect Master felt that it would not be something good for his Raging Flame Sect…
