"Dear!!!"

After the screams ended, the city lord immediately ran out to look before finding that outside the corridor was filled with the corpses of the many guards silently killed by the assassins previously and was concealed by the Delude Dimensional Space spell, making it impossible to see the corpses.

But after the Delude Dimensional Space spell disappeared, these corpses suddenly appeared. And it was when the city lord's wife came out of the room and walked down the corridors that she saw them, causing her to scream in shock and fear.

"Dear!!?"

"Dear!!!"

Flap!!!

"Dear, what happened? Why are there so many corpses? I'm scared, dear. I'm scared!!" As soon as the city lord's wife saw him, she immediately ran up to him with a hug and asked in wonder and fear.

"Assassins sneaked into our mansion and killed our people, but now they are all dead. Don't be afraid," the city lord raised his hand and stroked his beautiful wife's head while calming her down.

"Hurry up and order all the troops in the city to check their guards more because there might be more assassins in the city!"

"Yes, sir, City Lord!!!"

"They are all dead!"

But at that moment, Zheng-Fu's voice rang out as his figure walked slowly towards the city lord with a smile and then looked at the city lord's wife with greetings.

"Respect, lady!"

Huh...?

The woman looked at Zheng-Fu. A suspicious expression suddenly appeared as a question rushed into her head. But before she could even ask, the city lord spoke out first, "You mean... they have all been dealt with, right?"

Um… um… um!!!

Zheng-Fu did not answer, only nodded with a smile on the corner of his mouth. Previously, Zheng-Fu had used his shadow body to go outside of the mansion while slaughtering all the fake guards and those who were hiding in various places and then returning to the mansion again.

"Now that the assassins have been eliminated, order the guards at the city gate to open the door for the immigrants and order all the soldiers to always be prepared. If anyone sees anything suspicious, arrest them. I'll be investigating."

"Yes, sir!!!"

When the followers received their orders, they immediately dispersed and acted, leaving only the two strongest at the city lord's side.

"Alright, now that everything is over, I'll have to excuse myself. And this is for you, City Lord. I hope it'll help you greatly in the future," Finished speaking, Zheng-Fu took out a spelled bag and handed it over to the city lord before his body completely disappeared without a trace.

Ah!!!

As soon as his figure disappeared, the woman's face turned pale, as if she had seen a ghost during the day. Even the maids were no different. Previously, they had almost stopped breathing because of the many corpses, and then they saw Zheng-Fu's disappearance, so they wanted to stop breathing more.

Flap!!!

"What's that!!?"

As for City Lord, when he opened the bag he had received from Zheng-Fu, his face was as pale as a boiled egg, not unlike his wife. That was because what was inside the bag were five Wind Elemental Spiritual Stones, each of them being about the size of a chicken egg.

'He's such a mysterious and unfathomable person. It's very different from his age. Both his energy level and his psychic killing intent are unimaginable as something of a child,' the city lord thought in his mind, admiring Zheng-Fu for his abilities that were beyond his age.

At the front of the city gate…

"Senior, do you think Young Master can find our master?" a young man's voice rang out to ask Bao-Jin's opinion.

"He surely can. I believe Young Master can do it. But... Hah... Tha... that's… that's our master!!?"

Huh...?

But just as Bao-Jin was about to answer his junior, who was asking him, his gaze suddenly turned to a person he was very familiar with. That person was their master, who they were looking for. Not only their master, but the other disciples were also present.

"Master!!!"

"Master!!!"

When Bao Jin's group saw their master and the other disciples of the sect, all of them jumped in joy and immediately ran towards the elder.

"Bao-Jin!?"

As for the elder, hearing the familiar call, he turned his gaze in that direction before discovering that the person who called him was Bao-Jin. It was his beloved disciple who cried out in response, with a wrinkled smile on his face.

"Respect Master," When Bao-Jin and his group approached the elder, they immediately clasped their hands.

Then the elder asked anxiously and warmly, "Are you all safe!?"

"Yes, sir, Master, we are safe. Except for Thiny, he..." Bao-Jin immediately replied that he and the others were fine. Only a skinny young man died in the deep forest.

"Hmm… you guys are safe back, so it's good. But your energy levels? Why does it look weird?" The elder could feel the fluctuation of the energy of Bao-Jin and his comrades. They seemed to be strangely strong, so he asked with a questioning look on his face.

"During the journey, we encountered a lot of things that were so dangerous that we were able to improve ourselves. But that's only partly because the reason why our energy levels have risen by such a huge leap is that Young Master Zheng-Fu, Master," Bao-Jin replied to the elder, telling him the real reason.

Bao-Bao and the other young men nodded to confirm Bao-Jin's words because Zheng-Fu was the one who helped them all increase their ability and strength of their bodies, so everyone answered confidently.

"Young Master Zheng-Fu!?"

The elder's expression was slightly dazed when he heard Bao-Jin's answer, including Zheng-Fu's name. He had never heard of it before. So, the elder was very curious as to who the Young Master Zheng-Fu whom his disciple talked about was.

"Announcement!!! City Lord's orders to open the city gates now, so please everyone line up for a search and inspection before entering the city!"

Suddenly, the sound of the guards in charge of watching and the entrance to the city shouted loudly, telling everyone in front of the city to hear about the order that had been given to open the city gates. But everyone who wanted to enter the city would have to go through an inspection first.

"Did you hear that just now? The city gate is open!?"

"I did. My ears are not blind!!"

"It should be deaf!!!"

"Eh...forget it. It's the same thing. But let's just hurry up and line up so we can hurry into the city. I badly want to sleep on a soft mattress!"

After everyone outside the city heard the guard's announcement, they immediately packed up their belongings and rushed in line to wait for an inspection.

Everyone could not wait to enter the city. It was very sad for them to lie outside in such a cold and dusty place, especially the rich and merchants.

Even if they had their own tents and beds, it would not compare to sleeping at an elite tavern, as the tavern had nice baths, plush fur-lined beds, appealing beauties, and delectable dishes.

Therefore, everyone rushed to line up in unison immediately after the announcement was over. This included Bao-Jin's group. When his group merged with their master and the sect's disciples, it grew so large that it caught the attention of everyone in the area.

"They are like the martial masters from some sects!?"

"That's right... They're the guys from San-Hua Sect who used to live in the frontier city, don't you know that!?"

"I don't know... I'm not from the frontier city, but I'm from a nearby village."

The surrounding villagers' voices talked about Bao-Jin's group and his master, most of whom were immigrants from the frontier city. Everyone knew how many famous sects were there inside the frontier city, and the San-Hua Sect that they saw its disciples was one of them, causing everyone to talk about it.

But even though it was one of the famous sects within the city, the San-Hua Sect was not very prominent. It was often oppressed by the Flaming Crane Sect and Iron Fist Sect, but luckily, they could still exist now.

In this evacuation, the elder reluctantly decided to abandon his sect area, hoping for the disciples to survive and live on, waiting for the day to return to take revenge and reclaim the sect.

Whoosh... Thump!!!

At that moment, Zheng-Fu's figure suddenly appeared beside Bao-Jin like a ghost before Bao-Jin noticed and shouted his name respectfully.

"Young Master Zheng-Fu!!!"

"Hmm… you've found your master, right?" said Zheng-Fu, slightly turning to look at the elder, clasping his hands, and greeting, "Respect, San-Hua Sect Grand Master. I, Zheng-Fu of Tian-Tang Clan, nice to meet you, sir," he said with respect and a friendly smile.

"Likewise, Young Master Zheng-Fu. I'm San-Liang, San-Hua Sect Grand Master. I'm also pleased to meet Young Master Zheng-Fu and thank you very much for taking care of my disciples," the elder also clasped his hands and responded to Zheng-Fu as well.

"It's just a little matter. You don't have to say thank you," Zheng-Fu humbly rejected the elder's thanks before turning to Bao-Jin and continuing, "Once you meet your master, my duties are over, so now take care of yourself, and if you are interested in what I have to offer, you can go there immediately, including your master, your brothers, and sisters too."

"We thank you so much for bringing us here, and for that matter, I'll have to consult with Master on how to do it," Bao-Jin was well aware of Zheng-Fu's goodwill, but he could not choose because he had to consult his master before deciding what to do.

"Hmm... No matter which path you choose, it's up to you. I can only do this. After this, it's up to fate whether we'll meet again or not. And this is the farewell gift I'll give before we part. Take it!"

Zheng-Fu said goodbye, took out a dimensional ring with a storage space of one ping, and handed it over to Bao-Jin, telling him to take it without refusing, which Bao-Jin had only well received. He knew that even if he rejected it, it would not mean anything.

Blop!!!

"Thank you, Young Master."

Zheng-Fu then turned to Bao-Bao, who had been staring at Zheng-Fu since he appeared with inexplicable eyes, took out a dimensional ring and gave it to her the same as Bao-Jin, and spoke up, "This is a farewell gift from me... I hope you'll not be angry with me anymore... because this chapter is over."
