/*unedited*/

Kaboom!!!

Crash!!!

Bang!!!

The loud explosion reverberated throughout the city as the people who are hiding within their homes are shaking in fear. They didn't know what is happening, but a dangerous premonition is in their hearts as they are thinking that there is a chance that the city would be destroyed.

This is because they have seen the atrocities that the mercenaries did to the people in the streets. They spared no one even kids were killed or molested.

So upon hearing the loud sound everyone is filled with fear.

Xilu academy

The within the fields of the Xilu academy, a number of people are currently standing while looking at an old man and the woman on his side. Everyone is wearing their battle gear and their weapons on hand. After the headmaster's wound was healed, the faculty and staff of the academy decided to fight back against the mercenaries stationed outside of the academy.

"Everyone, I hope that you would not be reckless and lose your lives. Remember your groups and work in teams. This way, we can defeat our opponent." said the headmaster as he turns his sight to look outside of the academy.

However, his expression changes upon spreading his spiritual sense.

"What is happening? Just a moment ago I have sensed the presence of many mercenaries outside… and now no one is there." He muttered.

"Yes, I also noticed that the attacks have stopped. Do you think it's just a diversionary tactic?" Cai'Lin Yue who is standing beside him asked.

"I don't know… of now, we must be cautious… Let's go!" shouted the headmaster as he led the group towards the skies.

The group boarded their flying swords and artifacts and quickly move towards the location of each of their families.

Most of them are very lucky to have set up a protective barrier in their homes. However, there are few who were unlucky and had their families died in this battle. These teachers are filled with resentment and wanted to attack the mercenaries and join the war.

However, they were convinced by Cai'Lin Yue to hold back and make sure that everyone would move as one. This is the only way for them to be able to attain victory.

Hence the group of teacher flew in the air and then suddenly they saw that from afar, there are two figures fighting. The fighting was too intense that it has already destroyed many houses and buildings in the area.

"What is happening?" Cai'Lin Yue asked as she looks at Aiguo Ping the headmaster who has a pensive expression on his wizened face.

"Those are nascent realm cultivators fighting. We must not go there, we are just seeking death if we proceed." He said thinking of the welfare of the teachers with him.

"Let us go to the gates." One of the teachers suggested.

The group then proceeds to check the gates and found that there are a few mercenaries in those areas. With some of the teacher's resentful hearts, they began attacking the mercenaries who were taken by surprise.

In fact, those mercenaries have just escaped towards the gates as they thought it was the safest place right now. But they didn't expect that there are people who would hunt them down in those places.

"Die you, bastards!"

"I will destroy you all!"

"This is for my family!"

"You son-of-a-b*tch! We will kill you, weaklings!"

"Mercenary brothers attack!"

The crazy shout coming from the teachers and the mercenaries resounded through the gates as the teachers and staff of the Xilu academy began their counterattack.

After destroying the mercenary group from one gate, the group would then proceed to another until they all rid of the rest of the mercenaries in the gates.

When they flew towards the last gate they all noticed a peculiar golden dome. Around that dome are a large number of academy students with a few teachers with them.

When the group saw some people flying towards them, everyone is already in their toes.

"Wait! That's our teacher! They are people from Xilu Academy!" shouted one of the students.

Wen Mo Yang and the rest also noticed the headmaster and the vice headmaster leading the group. Upon seeing this everyone was elated.

They have been fighting for a couple of hours now and have faced a lot of those escaping mercenary groups. Luckily for them, they have not faced strong opponents and have easily taken care of those small fries with their teamwork.

"You guys are fine, that is great news!" said Cai'Lin Yue upon seeing the students in the Xilu academy.

However, she was also a bit sad because she knew that their numbers have decreased. She knew that some of the students didn't make it. She quelled the sadness in her heart and immediately checked the condition of each of the students and the teachers in the area.

While checking the condition of everyone, they were all interrupted by a loud crash.

They saw a house which was destroyed.

Dust cloud covered the area and the visibility became low. Using their spiritual sense, the teachers and some of the students showed a horrified look on their faces. This is because they saw a man lying on the ground.

His neck was twisted in an odd angle and it is clear that he is already dead. But from the spirit undulation in his body, the man is actually a nascent realm cultivator.

The headmaster was immediately alarmed. This is because they knew that the man was one of the nascent realm cultivators fighting within the city. And now that he is dead that only means that the other one was able to kill him.

They didn't know if the winner of this duel is a good guy or one of the bad guys, hence the tension in the air made everyone alert.

Suddenly, the figure of Wen Mo Yang suddenly rushed away from the group as she flew directly towards the person standing on a rooftop.

"Master Ji!" she shouted as she threw herself towards Shin Jiao's arms.

Shin Jiao was taken aback by her action, but he didn't want to embarrass the innocent girl, so he just catches her.

*Sob *sob

"Why did you leave me?" she said with a tone of indignation.

"Hey, it's all fine now. I told you, that I have something to do in the city, right? If you came along with me, then I would have a hard time moving… I hope you understand…" he said.

Shin Jiao didn't know why he had to explain himself to the young woman, but he just did.

"Anyway, you're safe now, so…"

"Master Ji, come with me… Let me introduce you to our academy headmaster." She suddenly said with a happy and excited smile on her face.

Grabbing Shin Jiao's hands, Wen Mo Yang drags him as they flew towards the ground. When the two reaches the ground, Shin Jiao saw the group of people. They were the students that he has helped and inside the semi-transparent golden dome are the people he has saved. All of them are looking at him with respect shining in their eyes.

"Master Ji, this is our school headmaster… Headmaster, this is Master Ji, the man who saved us."

Shin Jiao cupped his hand towards the old man and the people behind him. He is not familiar with any of them, but it seems that they didn't pose any threat. So he just perfunctory greeted the group.

"This young lad, you are the one fighting against that person, right?" the old headmaster asked while pointing at the corpse.

Shin Jiao just nodded his head. With this reply everyone was amazed, this is because Shin Jiao truly looks young to be a nascent realm expert. Plus his body is not showing Qi undulation. So they were both happy and surprised.

Shin Jiao on the other hand, suddenly remembers the last exchange he had with the man. Due to the power of the person, he had a hard time delivering a critical blow. But thankfully the man's beard was long, so he decided to grab it at that time and a pull, with the surprised look on his face, was yanked towards Shin Jiao.

"Despicable brat!" the man curses and wanted to dodge while sending his elbow, but it was too late.

Shin Jiao didn't hesitate to grab the man's neck and with a quick movement, exerted enough force to break his neck. However, in his last struggle, the man sent an elbow towards Shin Jiao. The impact sent his corpse flying to the ground with a loud crash.

After nodding his head in confirmation, Shin Jiao walked towards the golden dome and carefully disabled the array. The people showed a grateful look at him as they walked closer.

"You're all safe now… I think you should follow them. I still have someplace to go… Everyone take care." Shin Jiao said.

He then approached the corpse of the nascent realm expert and absorbed it inside his ring. After doing that, he jumps to the air.

"Wait! Master Ji! Come to Xilu academy after this, okay? I will wait for you there." shouted Wen Mo Yang while waving her hands in the air.

Shin Jiao turn around and then he flashed a smile and then nodded his head.

The young woman blushed as she bit her lower lips. Some of the young women in the group also showed an awed expression on their faces. They too were attracted by Shin Jiao's heroic and handsome appearance.

"Alright everyone, come with us to the Xilu academy to rest. We wait there for a while before that senior would end this battle." The headmaster said as he led the group.

As the group flew towards the Xilu academy, the old headmaster turns his sigh to where Shin Jiao is going to.

"Good luck young man… Thank you… Thank you for helping us.." The muttered in a low voice and an amiable smile appear on his old face.
