Moreover, the Burning Sky Faction was located in a mountain range, and the nearby terrain was more complicated. The bandits were best at robbing and then leaving, completely not entangled with the disciples of the Burning Sky Faction, so the sect could not do anything to them.
Both sides would occasionally break out into large-scale conflicts, but the strength of the bandits was not weak, so after a fight, both sides basically suffered losses, and the Burning Sky Faction had no way to restrain them.
The bandits were addicted to robbing, and from time to time came to harass them. The Burning Sky Faction felt that there was always a fly buzzing behind them, but they could not kill it, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
A few days ago, when Gong Shaoxi was chatting with Xiao Chen, they had talked about this matter. At that time, Xiao Chen had asked if he needed to take action, but Gong Shaoxi felt that the strength of those bandits was ordinary, and it was really not worth for his Exalted Immortal Master to take action personally, so he did not immediately agree, and Xiao Chen did not take it to heart.
Unexpectedly, today, Gong Shaoxi came to talk about this matter in the middle of the night, could it be that something changed with these bandits?
"It's that group of people!" Gong Shaoxi frowned, and said angrily, "Today, they came to rob our sect's Heaven and Earth treasures again, and this time they brought an expert, who killed many disciples of the Burning Sky Faction during the battle with us, they are simply abominable! So I want to ask Exalted Immortal Master to take action and teach those bandits a lesson, to help the dead disciples vent their anger! "
"I see, what is the level of that expert?" Xiao Chen nodded in understanding, and continued to ask.
"I am not too sure about this." Gong Shaoxi shook his head, and sighed helplessly, "At that time, I was taking care of my father and junior, so I did not have time to go over, and when I heard the news, they had already run away!"
Xiao Chen pondered for a while, and asked another question, "Then do you know, where is the nest of those bandits?"
Xiao Chen planned to eradicate all the bandits in one go, or else after a few days, when he left the Burning Sky Faction, he might not have the chance to help them again!
"This … We've tried to track their tracks before, but these bandits ran away after robbing them. We couldn't find where they were hiding at all!" Gong Shaoxi stomped his feet in annoyance. Suddenly, he thought of something and added, "That's right, according to the injured disciples, their most powerful leader might be at the Original Infant Stage!"
"Hmm … How about this! Take me to the back of the mountain to have a look. Maybe I can find some clues left behind by the bandits. If we follow the clues to their lair, we can catch them all in one fell swoop! "Xiao Chen said decisively when he saw that he couldn't get anything out of him.
"Alright, alright. I'll listen to Exalted Master!" Gong Shaoxi hurriedly agreed. He felt that the clues that ordinary disciples could not find might really be discovered by Exalted Immortal Xiao!
Xiao Chen thought for a moment, then turned to Hong Zhu and said, "You stay in the room! Gong Shaoxi and I will come back after dealing with the bandits! "
"No, I want to go too!" Hong Zhu rejected Xiao Chen's suggestion. She waved her little fist excitedly and said, "I want to help you teach those bandits a lesson. In any case, Big Sister is already at the second level of the Golden Core Stage. Although it might be a little difficult to deal with Original Infant Stage cultivators, it shouldn't be a problem for me to deal with those small fries. I also want to test out my own strength!"
After a month of drinking medicine and dual cultivating, Hong Zhu's strength had indeed increased a lot compared to before, so she was very eager to give it a try.
"Alright, then follow me. No matter what happens, don't leave my sight." Xiao Chen couldn't change Hong Zhu's mind, so he could only nod his head helplessly.
"Exalted Immortal Master, should I find some more helpers?" Gong Shaoxi respectfully asked, "After all, the other party has the advantage in numbers. If we really fight, the three of us might not be able to gain much of an advantage!"
Gong Shaoxi was actually not at all worried that Exalted Immortal Xiao would not be able to defeat the bandits. He just felt that it was easier to do things with more people. Besides, Exalted Immortal Xiao was only here as a guest, so he couldn't deal with all of them. As long as he could kill the strongest leader, it would be fine!
"There's no need, three people is enough!" Xiao Chen waved his hand, then pulled Hong Zhu towards the back of the mountain.
Seeing this, Gong Shaoxi had no choice but to follow. Since Exalted Immortal Xiao was so confident, there was no need for him to make a big fuss. Moreover, the bandits came and went like the wind tonight. Whether they could successfully find their hiding place was still a problem. Even if more people went, there was not much meaning.
Walking to the place where the Burning Sky Faction planted their Heavenly Treasures, Xiao Chen carefully inspected the scene. Other than the footprints left behind by the bandits when they escaped, there were no other valuable clues.
Xiao Chen led Hong Zhu and Gong Shaoxi into the mountains, following the footprints left behind. However, after walking for a few miles, the deep and shallow footprints suddenly disappeared. It could be seen that the bandits were already prepared and had already erased all the clues.
Looking around at the pitch-black darkness around him, Gong Shaoxi suddenly felt a little helpless.
"Exalted Immortal Master, these bandits are all experienced. Last time, our sect's disciples also chased them to this area, and the trail was cut off. Later on, we deliberately expanded the search area, but we still found nothing!" Helplessly taking two steps forward, Gong Shaoxi asked Xiao Chen for help, "What do you think we should do next?"
"Wait, let me use my divine sense to check the situation first." Xiao Chen waved his hand, and then released his divine sense to envelop the entire back mountain. He carefully checked every corner, not letting go of any clues.
Previously, when leaving the Inner Martial World, when they needed to open the portal, Xiao Chen had endured the Heavenly Tribulation together with the girls. At that time, because of Kerr Lin's cowering, he suffered most of the damage, and also shared the pressure of the other girls. Fortunately, there was no danger, and in the end, they survived the disaster safely.
As the saying goes, one who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune later on. After Xiao Chen finished enduring the Heavenly Tribulation, he felt that he had broken through several levels in succession. The Yuan Qi in his body was surging, as if he had endless power.
After entering the Immortal Cultivation World, from time to time, Xiao Chen would find time to dual cultivate with Hong Zhu, consolidating his cultivation, which was a blessing in disguise. Finally, his strength stabilized at the seventh level of the Profound Ascension Stage, which was why he could release such a large range of divine sense at this moment, covering the entire back mountain.
Feeling an extremely huge and unfathomable divine sense spiritual power spreading out, Gong Shaoxi couldn't help but be secretly surprised. He quietly took a step back, and asked Hong Zhu in a low voice, "Master's wife, what is my Master's current strength?"
