As he watched the Xia Clan's convoy leave, the middle-aged man riding on a Class 3 Magical Beast shouted, "Let's go, into the city!"
More than twenty people wearing the same uniform rushed into the city. When the guards saw that these people were all riding expensive magic beast mounts, they knew that they must have a great background, so they didn't dare to stop them in the slightest. They allowed the group to enter Wake City without any hindrance.
The middle-aged man riding on a Class 3 Magical Beast slowly walked along the wide road. His eyes casually swept across the people around him as he softly called out, "Junior Zhang!"
"Martial Uncle!" A burly man walking beside the middle-aged man immediately controlled his Magical Beast mount to move in front of the middle-aged man and asked, "Martial Uncle, what's the matter?"
"Junior Zhang, send a few people to find out when the Xia Clan's convoy entered the city." The middle-aged man riding on the Class 3 Magical Beast slowly said with a dignified expression on his face.
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" The burly man did not ask any more questions and immediately called for the men riding Class 2 Magical Beasts behind him to leave and gather information.
"Let's wait here for Junior Zhang and the rest to return." The middle-aged man controlled his Class 3 Magical Beast to stop at the side of the road and said to the men behind him.
"We'll follow Martial Uncle's orders!" Behind him, more than ten people in tight clothes said to the middle-aged man at the same time.
Soon after, the men riding Class 2 and Class 3 Magical Beasts waited patiently at the side of the road. Along the way, they attracted the attention of many passersby, their faces full of curiosity.
Very quickly, the people who had gone to inquire about the situation returned on their Class 2 Magic Beasts. The one called Junior Brother Zhang walked up to the middle aged man and said in a low voice, "Martial Uncle, the situation has been investigated. The Xia Clan arrived in Wake City less than an hour ago. As soon as they entered Wake City, they immediately headed towards the Kai Clan. Not long after that, they hurriedly left."
The middle-aged man frowned and muttered, "Kai Clan, Kai Clan, it's just as I expected."
"Martial Uncle, are we still going to the Kai Clan?" Junior Brother Zhang said from the side. Although he looked like a boorish man, he was very meticulous.
The middle-aged man shook his head slightly. He turned around and stared at the twenty or so people riding Class 2 Magical Beasts behind him. He said, "Let's go find an inn to stay in for the time being."
"Martial Uncle, aren't we going straight to the Kai Clan?" As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, a doubtful voice came from behind him.
"The situation has changed. Let's find an inn to stay in first." After saying this, the middle-aged man rode his Class 3 Magic Beast forward.
In a luxuriously decorated room with closed windows, a middle-aged man was sitting with two other middle-aged men of the same age as him. One of them was wearing a blue suit and had short hair that was about an inch long. He looked very capable. The other was a bald man with a sturdy figure. His pair of thick and muscular arms were exposed to the air.
"Martial Uncle, may I know why you called us here?" A middle-aged man in blue clothes asked.
"This Kai Clan is not simple. Even Uncle Liu Zheng of the Xia Clan is dead. It seems that the mission given to us by the sect master will be very difficult to complete." The middle-aged man said with a serious face.
"Martial Uncle, on the way here, I've heard many rumors about Jianchen. It's said that he killed three Class 5 Magical Beasts. Although there were two Earth Saint Masters with the fire attribute present, for him to be able to participate in a battle with Class 5 Magical Beasts, his strength is definitely not weak. I think that Uncle Liu Zheng of the Xia Clan was most likely killed by Jianchen because in Wake City, only he has the strength to do so." The bald man said.
The middle-aged man who was addressed as martial uncle nodded slightly and said, "The mission this time is more difficult than I imagined. Uncle Liu Zheng of the Xia Clan is about the same strength as me. I never thought that even he would die here. It seems that we need to pay a visit to this mysterious expert called Jianchen."
"Let's not delay any longer. Martial Uncle, why don't we go now?" The middle-aged man's suggestion was quickly approved by the other two.
"Alright!"
Following which, the three men left the inn at the same time. Riding their expensive Magical Beasts, they casually asked around for directions and headed straight for the Kai Clan.
Arriving at the main gate of the Kai Clan, the three middle-aged men dismounted at the same time and walked up to one of the guards. They cupped their hands and said, "Brother, we are from the Magnificent Heaven Sect. We have something to discuss with your Patriarch. May I ask if you can go in and inform him?" The middle-aged man did not reveal an overly arrogant expression and spoke in an amiable tone.
"Alright, I'll go in and inform him. Please wait a moment." The guard did not hesitate and immediately ran in to inform the Patriarch.
The three middle-aged men waited quietly outside the door with a calm expression on their faces.
In the Kai Clan, Jianchen, Kai Er, and He Duo Kang were in the main hall discussing how to deal with the Xia Clan's arrival. Although they could not be sure if the Xia Clan would make a big fuss over the death of the middle-aged man, they still had to be prepared in order to avoid being caught off guard.
At this moment, a guard ran in from outside and said, "Reporting to the Patriarch, there are three people outside who claim to be from the Magnificent Heaven Sect. They want to see the Patriarch."
"What, the Magnificent Heaven Sect?!" Hearing this, Kai Er's expression changed slightly. He stared sharply at the guard and asked again, "Are there really only three of them?"
"Yes, Patriarch, there are only three of them." The guard bowed and replied.
Looking at Kai Er's expression, Jianchen frowned slightly and said, "Kai Er, what kind of power is the Magnificent Heaven Sect? How strong are they?"
"Leader, the Magnificent Heaven Sect is a sect. The sect's encampment is on a mountain more than two thousand kilometers away from Wake City. Their exact strength is unknown, but they are not weaker than the Xia Clan. In fact, they might even be stronger than the Xia Clan." Kai Er said in a low voice, his face solemn.
Jianchen tapped his head, feeling a headache coming on. He muttered, "The temptation of a level five Demon Core is really great. We just defeated the Xia Clan, but who would have thought that in such a short time, another sect that is even stronger than the Xia Clan would appear?"
"Leader, the Magnificent Heaven Sect is obviously here for the level five Demon Core. How do you think we should deal with this? Should we deal with it the same way we dealt with the Xia Clan?" Mo Tian asked.
Jianchen shook his head lightly and said, "Let's go out and take a look first. Although I am not afraid of trouble, I still have to think of the brothers in the group. Unless we have no other choice, we should avoid offending powerful factions."
Soon after, Jianchen led Duo Kang and the others towards the Kai Clan's main gate. From afar, Jianchen saw three middle-aged men in tight robes standing straight outside the gate. One was at the peak of the Great Saint Master level, while the other two were mid-level Great Saint Masters.
"I am Jianchen. May I know if the three of you are from the Magnificent Heaven Sect?" Jianchen cupped his hands towards the three men as he arrived at the main gate.
When the three middle-aged men's gazes landed on Jianchen's face, a trace of surprise appeared in their eyes. Following which, the man in the lead smiled and cupped his hands towards Jianchen. "So this is Sir Jianchen. You are indeed as young as the rumors say. You are truly a hero from the younger generation. The three of us are from the Huayun Sect. I am Qing Yun, and these two are my two junior brothers."
"Qing Yi!"
"Qing Mu!"
