Chapter 15 - Trouble Brewing

"Your protection is not needed" A loud voice came from behind Ming Huo and Yue Qing, and not long after, a figure appeared in front of them

"Greetings Elder Wang" Ming Huo and Yue Qing greeted as they saw Wang Bo appeared in front of them

'Core formation realm..' The elder from the Thousand Sword Sect thought to himself, seeing that Wang Bo flew all the way here.

However, as their sect has dozens of Core Formation experts, the Elder retorted Wang Bo words and said "Hmph, do you think you will be safe after ignoring our offer? Plenty of sects have once been arrogant like yours, but all of them are now subsidiary forces to our Thousand Sword Sect HAHAHA"

"Do you think we are the same as those sects?" Wang Bo ignored the other party's thread, as he knew that the other party is only a 2nd Stage Core Formation cultivator, and he could kill the other party instantly

Unlike what the elder thought, Wang Bo was not a core formation expert, as he has succesfully broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm

"YOU!!" The elder turned furious once again as Wang Bo and the disciples have repeatedly turned down his offer and ignored his warning

However, before the elder could spout more bullshit, Wang Bo released his spiritual pressure, making the elder and the group of disciples behind him fall to their knees

"Yell one more time and I will make you shut your mouth for the rest of your life" Wang Bo said coldly to the elder who was suffocating for air

'Monster.... he is a monster' The elder was scared shitless after experiencing Wang Bo's strenght and thought to himself, 'this guy strenght is on par with the sect leader... I need to quickly escape and relay information back to the sect'

Seeing that the elder was scared and not resisting any longer, Wang Bo simply said "LEAVE", not knowing that by releasing the elder here, more 'trouble' will come to the sect in the future

-Black Eagle Hideout-

In the middle of the camp, the stench of blood could be sensed from miles away as Long Jun stood up in the middle of the hideout, surrounded by more than a hundred corps

"Sigh... this is realy disgusting" Long Jun muttered slowly as his whole body was covered in blood, as a result of massacring the bandits here

Looking at the corpse of bandits in front of him, Long Jun did not feel anything as he knew that the bandits here were all criminals that have comitted many crimes

Although this was the first time Long Jun has ever killed a human being, it was surprising that he did not feel bad nor guilt to the people he killed, and he had no hesitation at all when he killed those bandits

Even though Long Jun was not a bloodthirsty demon that finds pleasure in killing, he was not naive and knew that the day would eventually come when he need to kill a person, especially in this world where the strong prey on the weak

"Lets return to the society and grab the badge..." Long Jun muttered

Unbeknownst to him, there exists a certain reason that he did not feel anything when he killed those bandits, something that Long Jun himself didn't realise.

--------------

Long Jun cleaned himself and changed into a new robe before heading back to the mercenary society, as he did not want to walk around the city dronwed in blood.

Entering the society, Long Jun immediately went to the counter and found the exact same counter person he previously talked to

"Back so soon?" The counter person said, assuming that Long Jun was here to give up the mission and choose a lower leveled mission

"Here, I have finished the mission" Long Jun tossed a storage bag to the counter person

The counter person froze after looking at the content of the storage bag, as he was extremely shocked to see the corpse of Peak Stage Core Formation Bandit leader inside it

???

'WHAT? Is this real?..' Countless questions appeared on the counter person's mind as he could not comprehend how Long Jun managed to get the body of the bandit leader

He then opened his mouth and politely said "Please wait a minute esteemed sir, I will call my higher up as this case could not be handled by me"

Finishing those words, the counter person immediately used a communication talisman.

Not long after, a woman came down from the second floor of the Mercenary Society building, and the eyes of all the people present there turned towards her

Although the woman was beautiful and had an amazing figure, the reason that all of the people looked at her were because the woman is the leader of the mercenaries here, a strong figure whose cultivation is already in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and the woman would not normally appear unless there was something going on in the society

Making her way to Long Jun's side, the woman said "Greetings esteemed sir, my name is Yue Mingkong and I am the branch leader of the Azure Cloud Empire's mercenary society. First of all, I would like to congratulate you for completing the Nascent Soul Mission and becoming a 4 star mercenary of our society."

Hearing the words of Yue Mingkong, all the people present there was shocked to their core, as the number of 4 stars mercenaries in the Azure Cloud empire could be counted by one hand.

Yue Mingkong then passed the 4star mercenary badge to Long Jun and invited him for a cup of tea, to which Long Jun politely declined.

Bidding farewell, Long Jun then left the mercenary soicety as he has accomplished what he aimed for.

From that day, rumors of a new Nascent Soul mercenary appearing in the Azure Cloud Empire was spread across the empire, and Long Jun became one of the most famous person overnight.

-Thousand Sword Sect-

The elder who came to the Divine Chaos Sect was seen panicking and yelled loudly as soon as he reached the thousand sword sect "ELDERS! Gather at the sect master hall this instant!"

Noticing the trace of panickness in his voice,the elders of the Thousand Sword Sect soon gathered at the sect master.

The sect master hall was a grand building that is located at the heart of the sect and this is the place where important meetings are held within the Thousand Sword Sect.

Right now in the sect master hall, dozens of core formation elders sat around a round table as they listened to the elder who had just returned from the Divine Chaos Sect

"What happened 7th brother, shouldn't you be adding the new sect to our side?" an 8th stage Core formation elder spoke

"Second brother, we need to destroy them! Or else our position as the leader of this region could be taken away"

The elder then explained the whole situation he faced in the divine chaos sect, starting from the formation that he could not destroy, to the strong monster he faced

Hearing the words of the elder, the other elders became serious, but they did not dare act hastily beecause if the other party strenght is similar to the sect leader, they knew that they stood no chance facing the other party

However, just as the elders were put in a difficult position, an imposing and powerful figure appeared in the hall, and seeing the figure, the elders stopped their discussion immediately and said simultaenously "Congratulation on the breakthrough sect leader!", because they felt that the current sect leader is way stronger compared to before

"HAHAHAHA, this is nothing much" The elder laughed loudly

With the successful breakthrough of the sect leader, the elders were overjoyed, and their previous problem could be regarded as solved as they believe that with their sect leader by their side, the Divine Chaos Sect stood no chance facing them

"To celebrate my breakthrough and becoming a Tier 3 sect, let show the world once again the true power of our sect and the new sect will be an example to show the world the consequences of making us their enemy!" The sect leader said confidently before continuing,

The members of the Thousand sword sect was unaware that this act will be the reason for their downfall...
