"About to reach the city..." Muttering this to himself after hearing what Xuan Hao said, Chun Hua's grandfather narrowed both his eyes. Even though he had also noticed the powerful demon beasts rushing towards the frontier city because of the fact that none of them bothered hiding themselves, the people behind the demon beast stampede were not the same. Maybe only after they got within a few thousand meters of the frontier city would he be able to notice them, a point in time that would make it far too late for him to do anything about them entering the city.
Not to mention, he also had to think about the noble family behind these people, as they would undoubtedly have one of their three Earth Immortals hiding away somewhere inside the frontier city to ensure their safety. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
If he really decided to leave his family and rush to intercept those people, he might end up walking into an ambush by the noble family and the ruling family that had decided to cooperate with them!
For this reason, the old man could not help feeling a bit regretful, but... After remembering Xuan Hao who had agreed to help his family just a short time ago, he suddenly regained his energy before turning towards him filled with anticipation.
"..."
Rolling his eyes upon seeing the expectant look plastered all over the old man's face, Xuan Hao had no idea what to say in response.
"So... Can you..." "I understand what you are thinking, I was also planning to deal with them before they could reach the city." Knowing what the old man was trying to say, Xuan Hao didn't stay inside the pavilion for long before leaving in the direction of the primeval jungle while ensuring that he remained hidden in the process. Intending to deal with the people from the noble family without having to face off against the Dao Seed Realm cultivator that should be hiding somewhere inside the frontier city at this point in time.
...
At the same time Xuan Hao silently slipped out of the Chun Family Estate without being detected by any of the people keeping an eye on the estate for the different major powers in the city nor the different Soul Ascension Realm cultivators from the Chun Family curious about what had happened to him after he entered the central part of the estate where the ancestor resided, the group of people who had provoked the Dao Seed Realm snake demon beast successfully reached the edge of the primeval jungle.
"Looks like everything worked according to the plan, the only unfortunate loss was a few people in the earlier stages of the Domain Lord Realm." Slowing down a bit to not overexert himself beyond his limits, one of the people could not help saying this as he glanced down at the large number of weaker cultivators being slaughtered by a large number of weaker demon beasts below.
"Indeed, nothing out of the ordinary considering the strength of the demon beasts we had to attract..." Nodding his head as he responded to the first person, another of the people similar slowed down after seeing the frontier city in the distance. No longer feeling the need to continue burning his lifespan to increase his speed beyond his limits.
Given that he could see the frontier city up ahead and the fact that they had managed to create quite a bit of distance between themselves and the terrifying demon beast that they had provoked, his current speed was more than enough to reach the city before the demon beast could catch up to them.
"Yeah, I honestly thought we were going to die when I felt that terrifying aura earlier!" Arriving with a far more exhausted expression on his face compared to the other two, a figure looking about to collapse at any moment nodded his head fearfully as he said this.
Having come up with a decent plan in his own opinion, Xuan Hao spread out his dao domain before using it to form an impenetrable wall in front of the group of escaping cultivators from the noble family-
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Not even a second after Xuan Hao used his dao domain to block the path of the noble family cultivators, did the first few people violently crash into the invisible wall that had been formed by his dao domain.
"Ahhh!? What is this!?"
"Wah!?"
"Wall- No, a formation!?"
Not able to understand what had suddenly blocked their path, all of the noble family cultivators began panicking. Even a single second wasted would give the terrifying demon beasts behind them time to catch up.
"Don't waste time! Attack it with all your strength unless you want to be eaten alive by those demon beasts!" Knowing this, one of the more powerful Soul Ascension Realm cultivators took the lead as he yelled this while using all of his strength to attack the invisible wall that had appeared in front of them-
Boom! Boom! Boom!
And soon enough, countless spells and mystical techniques rained down towards Xuan Hao's dao domain...
"This... Impossible!"
"Not even a single scratch..."
"Go around! We can't destroy it!"
Unfortunately for the noble family cultivators, the difference between the Soul Ascension Realm and a Late Stage Dao Domain Lord was simply not something that could be changed that easily...
