Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

"H-How did you survive!?" Screaming out unwillingly, the Grand Elder of the Raging Flame Sect stood  in front of the entrance to his sect as he looked over in the direction of Feng Chen filled with disbelief.

Fwoosh~

The wall of fire that surrounded the entire Raging Flame Sect had already begun to recede as the exhausted figures of the other Nascent Soul Realm Elders from the Raging Flame Sect could be seen exhaustedly collapsing on the ground.

By this point, only the Grand Elder was left standing among the Nascent Soul Realm experts of the Raging Flame Sect…

"Hah…"

Feng Chen did not respond to the question of the Grand Elder and instead just let out a deep breath before lifting up his sword and swinging it down in the direction of the Grand Elder.

Whoosh!

The Sword lit up brightly as a silver-coloured light covered it before flying out in the direction of the exhausted Grand Elder.

Standing exhausted in front of the entrance to the Raging Flame Sect, the Grand Elder barely managed to draw upon the power of the sect's protective array formation an conjure up a barrier to block the incoming attack… But this was still not enough as part of the attack still broke through the barrier and pierced through him.

"Argh!"

Collapsing down on the ground in front of the Raging Flame Sect, the Grand Elder directly died from the sword attack launched by Feng Chen! Not even his Nascent Soul managed to escape!

"W-where is the Sect Master? Why has he not showed up yet?"

"Maybe he already ran away!"

"Yes, if the Sect Master already ran away, why should we still stay around?"

The remaining disciples and elders of the Raging Flame Sect saw this scene of the Grand Elder dying to Feng Chen's attack and began to panic before realizing the fact that their Sect Master had still not showed up at this point in time.

Among the elders of the Raging Flame Sect, the only ones who knew about the fact that their sect master had left in an attempt to breakthrough, was those at the Nascent Soul Realm. The disciples and other elders at the Core Formation Realm had no clue that their sect master had gone out to seek an opportunity to breakthrough…

So, with the fact that all the remaining Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Raging Flame Sect had collapsed on the ground from exhaustion after using the sect guardian formation and the Grand Elder was killed by Feng Chen. Most of them began to panic as some even began to openly escape from the Raging Flame Sect. Hoping to safe their own skin by running away before Feng Chen came to kill them as well!

Even if he decided to chase after them to kill off the Raging Flame Sect, he would not be able to catch all of them!

"To think that the Sect Master is truly not there…"

Feeling a bit disappointed as he watched a part of the remaining disciples and elders begin to escape in all directions, Feng Chen did not worry about them as he knew Xuan Hao would take care of them.

Deep down, he had hoped the Sect Master of the Raging Flame Sect was still there… So, he could make up for his defeat in the past…

"No need thinking about this anymore… For now, let's take care of the Raging Flame Sect for good! After today, there will no longer be any Raging Flame Sect in the world!"

A ruthless look appeared on Feng Chen's face as he made his way over in the direction of the Raging Flame Sect.

The only way to truly destroy a sect was to kill of their elders and the core and inner disciples.

As for the outer disciples?

Most of the time, they would be left alone as they had yet to fully be a core part of the sect and would not have too much attachment to the sect yet… And killing the outer disciples of a sect would often be considered a bit too ruthless as the outer disciples were normally not members of the sect for more than a few years, often being of the younger generation.

Killing all the outer disciples was something only the demonic sects did… Or at least that was what most people thought.

Things like complete annihilation of a sect still happened from time to time in the surrounding kingdoms. The Azure sky Kingdom was even famous for doing it in the past before growing to its current height…

Whoosh~

Thinking about this as he arrived in front of the Raging Flame Sect, Feng Chen waved his sword and used the still unfamiliar sword intent as he began to kill off the different elders and disciples that could be considered the core of the Raging Flame Sect.

Luckily, they were easily identifiable by their different coloured robes. Making it easy to not just randomly begin slaughtering the outer sect disciples…

…

At the same time that Feng Chen had gone to seek out the Raging Flame Sect for a fight, Shu Yao had directly made her way over to the Azure Sky Kingdoms newly established army camp… But what she saw when she arrived there was nothing like what she had expected.

"Hello Miss! It's a pleasure meeting you, I hope we can solve things without any fighting as I think it can be mutually beneficial to both parties."

The person who had come out to meet her upon reaching the entrance to the army camp was the Eighth Stage Nascent Soul Realm Expert mentioned by Xuan Hao along with two fourth stage Nascent Soul Realm Experts each standing on the man's left and right side without saying anything.

"… You do know that you are from the Azure Sky Kingdom and is currently in the process of invading the Heavenly Sky Kingdom… Right?"

Tilting her head to the side as she looked at the man in front of her like he was stupid, Shu Yao secretly prepared to attack in case the man in front of her was just trying to distract her before launching a surprise attack.

"Hehe, we know very well how the current situation inside of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom is between the four… Oh, I mean three strongest sects is… All we want to do is destroy the Heavenly Sky Kingdom, we are not interested in attacking your three sects at all!"

Laughing quietly when he saw the expression on Shu Yao's face, the man did not back down in the slightest as he continued. Clearly, he was not willing to fight with the sects inside the Heavenly Sky Kingdom.

"So…?"

"So, we want your sects to look the other way and not help out the Heavenly Sky Kingdom… In return, we won't interfere with your sect's territory and will even allow you three to split up the central region after we have finished dealing with the Heavenly Sky Kingdom…"

Feeling doubtful after hearing what he said, Shu Yao could not understand the reason behind what the man from the Azure Sky Kingdom said.

If they were not invading the Heavenly Sky Kingdom to take over their territory and expand, then what reason did they attack the Heavenly Sky Kingdom for…? Did they not just take over a large part of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom…?

Remembering the fact that the Azure Sky Kingdom had just taken over land equal to 10% of the entire Heavenly Sky Kingdom recently, Shu Yao could not help but doubt the man as she narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

"Did you not take over part of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom recently? How do you expect me to believe that you won't do the same again?"

"Hehe, we did indeed do so… But that was only because that land was originally a part of the Azure Sky Kingdom that the Heavenly Sky Kingdom had take over in the past! We do not plan on taking any more territory and are only interested in destroying the Heavenly Sky Kingdom!"

Listening to the man in front of her still being so confident, Shu Yao felt a bit uncertain…

The Azure Sky Kingdom was at war with the Heavenly Sky Kingdom. The Flying Sword Sect and Spring Flower Sect had not truly begun to fight against them yet and only send a few people over because of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom…

Maybe there is some hidden reason why the Azure Sky Kingdom are attacking the Heavenly Sky Kingdom...?

"Sure, I agree-"

BOOM!

Just as Shu Yao agreed, a large explosion could be heard in the direction of the Raging Flame Sect as Shu Yao and the three Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Azure Sky Kingdom turned to look in the direction of the Raging Flame Sect.

"W-well… It looks like your friend already managed to deal with the Raging Flame Sect… I-I will inform my superior that the Flying Sword Sect and Spring Flower Sect will not interfere in our battle!"

Nervously saying this as he felt the terrifying might behind the earlier explosion, the man from the Azure Sky Kingdom quickly made his way inside the army camp after seeing Shu Yao nod her head in agreement and leave in the direction of the Raging Flame Sect.

Shu Yao was still suspicious about the Azure Sky Kingdoms purpose as she left the army camp and made her way over towards the Raging Flame Sect.

For now, she would find an opportunity in the future to find out what reason the Azure Sky Kingdom had to attack the Heavenly Sky Kingdom…

"Hm… He didn't seem too worried about the Azure Sky Kingdom soldiers still making their way through the Raging Flame Sect…"

Muttering this to herself, Shu Yao could not help but shiver a bit upon realizing how ruthless the man from the Azure Sky Kingdom truly was!

He gave up all the soldiers inside the Raging Flame Sect so he would not have to deal with the Flying Sword Sect and Spring Flower Sect in the future… Looks like I will have to be more cautious when investigating the Azure Sky Kingdom's reason in the future…!

…

At the same time, inside the newly established army camp of the Azure Sky Kingdom.

"AH! I forgot about the soldiers we still had moving through the Raging Flame Sect!"

The man who had spoken to Shu Yao earlier anxiously yelled to himself as the two Nascent Soul Realm Experts following him looked over worriedly

"General…"

"Ha… I completely forgot about it after feeling that terrifying aura approaching… I never imagined that the Heavenly Sky Kingdom would have someone that terrifying among them, a half-step Domain Lord! At least they are not from the Heavenly Sky Kingdom's own forces but are from one of the sects… Looks like the Heavenly Sky Kingdom would soon collapse even without us… Losing those troops still in the Raging Flame Sect can be considered a sacrifice for not offending someone like that…"

Saying this aloud with a helpless expression, the general soon calmed down as he entered a large tent with a communication talisman in hand.

He had to at least inform his superior about what happened today! Things had gotten uncertain with the appearance of someone in the half-step Domain Lord Realm!

All he could hope, was that the woman from earlier would not interfere with anything and would just ignore them… Everything had to work as planned!
