Zhu Long looked towards the East and beamed his satisfaction. ``I'm sure that things will start to get out of hand. But at least I got a good weapon in my hand. Let's hope there aren't too many enemies within the Village Head's residence.'

He was full of spirit and his aura was increasing rapidly. If anyone was close to Zhu Long at this moment, the only thing they'll be able to sense is the boy's monstrous killing instinct.

'Let's forget about the enemies that I may face for now and head towards the east.' Zhu Long thought as he started to leap towards the East. He was more than confident that the Village Head's residence would be at the East.

.....

”Kid, one of your Imps is dead. It seems like that mysterious boy killed him. If I had to guess, I would say that he would head towards the Village Head's residence. What will you do now?” An unpleasant voice came from the shadows.

”Teacher, I will face him, it seems like I have underestimated him. Well, it doesn't matter, I'm sure that teacher will help me take care of him.” Another voice responded.

”Hmm, that might not be possible.” The person disagreeably went against the other person's suggestion in taking down Zhu Long.

”Why is that!? I don't believe that anyone in the Village could be able to deal with your power! You are at the Void stage, even though that guy's power is unknown, I'm sure that his power is nothing close to yours?!” the disciple confusedly questioned his master's declaration.

”That is true, I wouldn't fear anyone within the village. But, I felt an unfamiliar qi enter the village not a few days ago. That would not be so bad but the main problem is that the unfamiliar qi was as powerful as mine. I fear that if they detect me, my cover would be blown.” The teacher answered in an even more annoyed tone. It seemed that the person's position was a very important deal.

”That is truly sad. But with his power, I'm sure that he wouldn't be involved with my battle with that boy!” The disciple was very excited when he imagined himself battling with Zhu Long.

”Just you wait, I'm close to breaking through to the 3rd stage, as soon as I breakthrough... Our battle would be inevitable,” The disciple proudly sneers while he got ready to go into meditative stage.

As he got closer, he noticed that the Demons were marching in a line, like members of a military. Zhu Long hid himself, a task that would be difficult for many but something extremely easy for Zhu Long.

'I must say, not being able to control qi does have some upsides to it. One of which is that no one can detect my qi so if I were to hide in the environment, no one can detect me. I've also been trained to do stealth by oldie so I must say that I am lucky.' He smiled as he closely observed the group.

'There are 8 demons, the one in front must be the leader. By the aura he is giving off, he must not be at the Nascent stage, maybe the peak of Soul Forming while the others may be mid Soul forming stage. Not too weak for a small troop. I wonder what they are up to? This place is in between the South and East and also very close to the Village center.' Zhu Long speculated in his mind as he tried to get closer to the troops.

”DAMN IT! Just because the captain sense this powerful disturbance near the Southern Fortress, he gave us the mission to examine it. At the same time go undercover. Hmm...” The Demon Commander of the squad sighs heavily finding their task quite challenging. He glanced at his squads and notice the gloominess in their faces. ”But even so, don't be discouraged boys... Who knows, not only will we get to kill that person causing such troubles but we might even get to feast on some humans. So, stop looking like dead meat, COME ON!”

Due to their inability to use qi because of the fear of getting caught, they had no choice but to rely on their physical strength alone. Which was the main cost to their exhaustion and displeasure of the task.

Hiding qi would not be a problem for those above the Nascent stage but for those At the Soul Forming stage and Qi gathering stage, it was beyond impossible. So they had to close off their meridians completely.

Zhu Long who decided to take his time and listened in, was taken aback when he heard what the squad's commander just declared. It struck him in shock as his mind became muddle about everything. ”Wait? WHAT?! How.... The Demons... There are two groups?! That means that this so-called ”Young Master” is from an entirely different group whilst these Demons are from the Army that the Village is at war with. Strange... Does this mean the Imp I fought was not part of the Army? I mean, wasn't Lilith the person in charge of this side of the Demon Continent* Could this mean like another leader, or wait... Impossible, is there like a conflict between them, it may seem possible though. Only one way to find out.'
