…

A few days later, more and more cultivators arrived at the Ten Thousand Flower City.

Those who came over at first were all independent cultivators from the vicinity. Their strengths varied, and most of them were cannon fodder of the Qi Refinement Stage.

The cultivators who came this time were much stronger.

Within a day, Ye Xuan could clearly sense several big shots of the Foundation Establishment Realm flying in the sky.

Moreover, Ye Xuan concluded that most of these Foundation Establishment Realm big shots came from the other three major sects because each of them had many juniors behind them.

Xia Yuning was also of the Foundation Establishment Realm and had the qualification to lead the Qi Refinement Stage disciples of the sect to explore the mystic realm. It was the same for the other three major sects.

Although there were cultivators stronger than Xia Yuning in the mystic realm, Ye Xuan was not worried because Xia Yuning definitely had a life-saving trump card.

Furthermore, the four major sects also had unspoken rules. Basically, they would not kill anyone. This was also to avoid causing a war between the sects.

Soon, another few days passed.

These foreign cultivators came from afar. After recuperating in the city, they had all recovered their full strength, and were headed toward the mystic realm.

However, just when Ye Xuan thought he would settle down for a good period of time, he did not realize that he had already been targeted.

…

…

The night wind blew.

In the darkness, under the waning moon, a few figures were rushing through the alleys in the city.

“Boss, are we really going to the Ye Family?” A man in black asked in a low voice.

“Nonsense. That Ye Family Patriarch is a Grade-1 alchemist. There are definitely many treasures in his residence. Taking advantage of the fact that there are many independent cultivators in the city, if we could obtain some medicinal pills, we would have a lot more safeguards to enter the mystic realm!”

“Little Ma, you’re still too young. In the immortal cultivation world, strength reigns supreme. The Ye Family is a newly risen immortal cultivation family, yet they actually dare to expand so quickly. Aren’t they courting death?” Someone sneered.

“But we don’t know the strength of the Ye Family Patriarch…” The black-robed man who had been addressed as Little Ma was still a little hesitant.

“Haha, Little Ma, you don’t have to be so cautious. Big Brother has already asked around. That Ye Family Patriarch was only at Level 5 of the Qi Refinement Stage a few years ago at the gathering of independent cultivators. Moreover, it’s said that the Ye Family Patriarch had focused on studying alchemy and had no time to cultivate at all. After so many years, he was at most at Level 6 of the Qi Refinement Stage.” A black-robed man chuckled and explained.

There were a total of seven people in their team, with the lowest cultivation at Level 5 of the Qi Refinement Stage, and the highest cultivation at Level 8 of the Qi Refinement Stage. Robbing a small immortal cultivation family clan would naturally be a piece of cake.

“Don’t worry, Little Ma. You don’t have to participate in the battle anyway. You just have to be on guard outside. Don’t let those women from the law enforcement team get close!”

The leader of the men in black patted the shoulder of Little Ma gently and comforted him with a smile.

“Okay… okay…”

Finally, the young man called Little Ma nodded, but he still felt that something was amiss.

His name was Ma Fei and he was an independent cultivator. Although his cultivation was not strong, he was born with a powerful soul perception.

It was said that there was a ruin opening here, which was why he wanted to find other teams to explore together. Hence, he joined this Blue Bird Group.

He originally thought that this was a harmonious and friendly team, but he did not expect it to be a damned bandit cultivator group.

Unfortunately, he had already boarded the pirate ship. The other party had allowed him to join them because they valued his talent. If he dared to have any intention of withdrawing, there was no doubt that the others would instantly kill him on the spot.

“I hope nothing happens this time…”

Ma Fei muttered in his heart.
