155 Dispute Over a Hill (1/2)

The sudden phenomenon in the sky was alarming. The first people to sense the change were the hidden experts residing in Blackwillow Town. The stir in energy had shocked them as they were reminded of the previous phenomenon that occurred not long ago.

The previous phenomenon was caused by a person breaking through to the legendary Transcendent Realm. As such, they couldn't help but also relate tonight's phenomenon to another person's breakthrough to Transcendent Realm.

Primrose Merchant Association Branch, Blackwillow Town, 8th floor.

”Senior Apprentice Brother, another person is breaking through to the Transcendent Realm in this kingdom! Should we go take a look?” A young lady in white robe with a bluesilver butterfly image on the back, rushed into the room and suggested.

”Is that so?” The Senior Apprentice Brother Cal took a glimpse at the sky outside and saw the silent phenomenon taking place. He rubbed his chin in deep thought. ”It looks a bit different to the previous phenomenon… but this tremendous power… there's no doubt about it. It's a Transcendent breakthrough.”

Cal donned a similar white robe, before hopping outside from the window. ”Let's go congratulate this senior on his breakthrough to Transcendent Realm. It would be beneficial to our sect if we can befriend this senior, Junior Apprentice Sister Celia. We have to be quick, before others get there first.”

Even if it wasn't a senior breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, it could be the birth of some sort of treasure. In that case, they definitely couldn't let others get to it first. With that thought in mind, Cal began moving in a rhythmic step, creating fading afterimages and blinked dozens of yards ahead at a time. He was using the [Profound Butterfly Steps] of his sect.

”Huh? Wait for me for me, Senior Apprentice Brother Cal!” Celia utilized her proficiency of [Profound Butterfly Steps] to chase after her senior apprentice brother.

At the location of the hill, they were the first to arrive.

”Huh? This should be the center of the phenomenon, right? There's nothing here.” Celia said doubtfully.

Cal creased his brows. Was he wrong? Or was he too late? The phenomenon ended too quickly.

Swoosh**

Several other figures began appearing on the hill not long after. An elder and two other young attendants, who seemed to be the elder's disciples. The elder was aged but possessed a certain youthful and domineering vigor to him. They had arrived from the nearby Rainwallow City. The elder scanned the hill before locking onto the two people.

”You two over there! Where is the Transcendent Master?” The Elder pointed and questioned them overbearingly.

His overbearing attitude immediately angered the two white-robes. ”Hmph! The Transcendent Master is not here. Please leave! The Illusory Butterfly Sect is occupying this hill.” Cal said sternly with a deep frown.

”Shameless Old bastard! We were clearly here first!” Celia insulted.

The Bloodfiend sect elder's face immediately went dark. He was an expert at the five-star Awakener Realm. ”Hmph! How dare a little lass like you disrespect me! Let me educate you on behalf of your elders!” The elder sneered.

He slit his wrist, allowing blood to gush out and formed a giant blood claw. It clawed at the white-robe duo with great speed, intending to viciously cripple them. However, in the face of such impending danger, the duo did not avert their gazes, facing the claw bravely without any panic with their meagre strength at the 9th step Awakener Realm.

The composed looks made the elder frowned as he thought these two brats were too pompous and ignorant. Did they think he wouldn't dare to kill them!? A trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes as he made up his mind to rip them to shreds.

However, before the blood claw reached them, some silvery-blue mist shot over at extremely high speed and plunged into the blood claw from the opposite direction. The blood claw seemed to have been inflicted with some sort of nasty poison, causing the blood claw to lose its power. Bubbly spots appeared all over the blood claw, before it finally exploded into countless fluttering butterflies briefly. It soon dissipated into nothingness shortly after.

”Who!?” The Bloodfiend Sect raged. He was filled with great fury and regrets. He did not care whether someone had blocked his attack or not. What he cared was the blood loss he had incurred as a result of that person's intervention!

”Old Claw, how I teach my disciples, it is the responsibility of I, their master. You think you are qualified to take my place to educate them?” A lazy voice drifted over, as an elder in white robes with the trademark butterfly mark on the back appeared with two other disciples.

”Master!” Cal and Celia happily shouted and walked over to the elder's side.

”You two brats are quite daring. If I had not appeared, the both of you would have been dead!” The elder grumbled.
