The trio went to Demon Soul’s residence.
"Where have you been?" He asked Jack as soon as they entered the residence.
"In the bar. We are beating those young masters."
"How far did you come from that side?"
"We have beaten the direct descendants of the founders who are on the same level as us in the last few days. Even though we didn’t cover all of them, we at least did the more high-profile ones dirty. They are currently bald and when they were found, they were naked in the streets or other public places.
So, I would say, we did a pretty good job, if you ask me."
"Yeah, it seems like you indeed did a pretty good job. Perhaps, even overdid it. The Sect leaders are inviting us to a banquet this afternoon and the invitation is for your friends too."
"Banquet in the middle of the day?"
"Yes."
"These guys don’t have any sense for celebration," Philip commented from the side.
"Who said it is for the celebration? If they only invited me and Jack, I would have believed so. But they are also calling you guys and they even insisted. It seems like they planned something very good for you guys."
"What would that be? Some good food or some washed-up necks?" Watt asked as he stretched his body and dropped on the bed lazily.
"Who knows? Maybe both of them. But it seems like your plan is in the final stages. It will become a direct confrontation any time now. I am expecting some dueling challenges from the direct descendants that are as strong as you or even stronger.
That is the most general and direct approach they could take. They might think of humiliating you or even ’accidentally’ killing you. So, be careful."
"You would be there right?"
"Of course, I cannot miss such a show."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey made some small chat as the old man couldn’t stop speaking at all.
They informed Sam about the situation through the communication devices and waited for the banquet.
When the time of the banquet neared, the sects actually sent an attendant to invite them all over to the banquet and they followed that attendant to the Common Area.
The Grand Hall is being used for the banquet and when they arrived, almost all the important figures of the five great sects are present inside. They are clearly taking this seriously.
And among the important members, the trio saw some bald heads and burned faces.
They clearly recognized them.
They are the bald heads they created.
The youngsters are all, looking at the trio as if they want to eat them alive. But the trio just grinned calmly and went to their seats.
They didn’t care about manners or respect. They just started eating and drinking as they liked even before anyone else started.
The Demon Soul also didn’t hold back and didn’t stop them. He also started devouring food without any table manners.
He even called a server out in the middle to get some food he liked that was placed on another table. He behaved as if it is his home.
And it didn’t take long for the young masters to react. They couldn’t take it and many times they wanted to get up and shoot their mouths, but for some reason, the elders are all keeping their eyes on them carefully and whenever someone wanted to act out, they shot them a glance making them sit down.
After a while, the Five Sect leaders stood up and one of them started talking out loud gathering everyone’s attention.
"Today, we gathered here on the occasion of our Guardian leaving our Five Great sects.
He has been the guardian of our sects for decades as he has seen the growth of our sects with his own eyes. He has been a witness to many changes we have been through as well as many difficulties we have overcome.
He knows better than anyone, how far we have come. But all good things must come to an end and our relationship with our Guardian is the same.
From today onwards, our Guardian is moving on from our Five Great sects and is going on the bigger world waiting for him."
As he spoke, he lifted his glass and an attendant came out with a special gourd of wine as he poured into his and the rest of the sect leader’s glasses, after which they filled Demon Soul’s as well as the trio’s glasses.
The sect leader who gave the speech raised the glass and gulped it down along with the other sect leaders.
Demon Soul took the smell of the glass while the trio did the same.
The smell of the wine is too rich and strong, it has been a while they felt that some wine could be this strong.
They also gulped it down. Even the Demon Soul didn’t hold back and the banquet went smoothly.
This made the four of them feel surprised. After all, they expected some ruckus and some resistance for themselves, they thought of the proud young masters challenging them to restore their stupid pride. They wanted to bash a few heads to the ground and make the sect leaders and the Elders rage only for them to stop acting because of Demon Soul’s presence.
But none of it happened. They could only come out with disappointment.
After the banquet was over, the four of them leisurely walked out of the city, and by the time they crossed the gate, the trio felt something happening to them. The regular absorption of energy became a bit difficult as if something dense is clogging their meridians.
When they checked their bodies with a spiritual sense, they noticed that the dense sludge blocking the meridians is not actually some foreign thing.
It is just spiritual energy that became dense and blocked the meridians. Soon, apart from the general absorption, even the circulation became hard.
They had a bad feeling about the situation and Jack didn’t hesitate to make the Demon Soul know of this finding.
Demon Soul thought for a moment and said.
"Be careful. I think I am also feeling something similar in my body."
This made the three of them frown and their bad feeling only increased.
As the four of them vigilantly walked into the deeper section of the forest, Demon Soul took out his sword and made five swift movements, the sword rays went in five different directions as they cut off the trees and forced some people to come out.
After they came out, five more people followed from a hiding place a bit far away.
The four of them were surprised. Because the people that came are grand elders and the young masters of the sect.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey didn’t expect that they would manage to appear in the exact same route they are going to take.
"How do you know we would be taking this route?"
Demon Soul asked out of curiosity.
"We don’t. We just stationed a group in the three most probably routes and we managed to find you here."
One of the Grand elders spoke and then paused before he continued.
"Send the three over. The youngsters will handle themselves, I am sure you wouldn’t be able to deal with us while shielding them.
They might even die of aftershocks of the clash."
"Demon Soul just shrugged and looked at the trio. They nodded and walked out of the encirclement of the grand elders and entered one that was prepared for them separately.
One of the young masters looked at Jack and said.
"Didn’t expect this situation did you?"
Jack just looked at him blankly without replying. There is a look of disdain on his face that made the other party feel embarrassed.
"You can be arrogant all you want. But that wine you drank will make you think that messing with the sects is the biggest mistake you did.
I am pretty sure that your meridians are being clogged as we speak. You would be like that for a few hours and that is more than enough time to kill you guys a dozen times.
As he spoke, the wind element suddenly razed and he created a large tornado around him which slowly got compressed into a small tornado in his hand and aimed at the trio.
Watt leisurely extended his hands and clapped once.
The wind elemental energy became chaotic for a second as ripples formed around them. The tornado that was making its way towards them, disappeared as if it was never there.
"Flashy moves, no substance."
Watt said as he shook his head in disappointment. He has seen so many wind elemental cultivators and everyone is doing the same. They are making big and flashy moves that could create a lot of ruckuses.
Of course, they are destructive but not as destructive as they actually can be.
He sighed and wind elemental energy gathered at his hand as he swung it fiercely.
A large wind blade condensed densely arrived right in front of the young master who attacked him in a flash.
