The Peak Court of the Azure Wind Mountain Sect was divided into ten Elder peaks, one Grand Peak, one Leader Peak, and lastly, the Forbidden Peak.
In this place, only the core mbers of the sect could reside, and they were all mbers of one of the ten elder peaks. In total, there were around 30 thousand mbers residing in the Peak Court, and they were all the elites of the Azure Wind Mountain Sect.
However, because of the conflict going on in the continent, many of these mbers and elders were gone out to collect rits and make their na. That's why the place looks deserted.
At this mont, four figures were walking toward the inner court gates, and whoever saw them would bow toward the woman in front who wore the Peak Elder robes. They were indeed the Winter and the three hunters.
Winter's entourage was very close to the exit of the peak court, and they hadn't encountered any hurdle yet because of her identity.
However, when they were about to cross the massive mountain gates that lead into the inner court, soone blocked their way.
It was a handso man with 6'1 height and a sharp jawline. His sharp blue eyes contained a hint of lust as he eyed the 7th Azure Elder, and he was wearing the sa robes as her as well.
Winter's expression didn't change much when she saw that man and greeted, "3rd Elder, Dennis, do you need sothing?"
On the other hand, the hunters' hearts sank when they heard the identity of this man, but they maintained their calm and kept their heads low, and waited to see how this would play out.
Dennis pulled a big smile and replied, "7th Elder Ling, what are you up to? Last ti I checked, Patriarch told you, and old 9th to remain on standby in Peak Court while they chase after the criminal, yet you seem to be going out. May I inquire why and who are those three and why are they hiding their faces?"
Winter's eyes shimred coldly as she saw Dennis's lecherous smile, she knew this guy was deliberately making things difficult for Ling because she rejected his marriage proposal multiple tis, yet he didn't give up.
Furthermore, there was a reason for it, Dennis was infamous for his luscious nature, and he didn't even spare sect disciples who caught his eyes, and many fell victim to this guy's charm.
'I guess it can't be helped…' Winter thought with pity before Ling suddenly pulled a bright smile as she replied, "I wasn't going anywhere just escorting my peak disciples out with instructions as it was their first ti heading out, so they are shy. Anyway, since we are already at the exit, they can move out on their own. On the hand, do you want to go to my place and discuss cultivation with ?"
Dennis's expression instantly changed into one of shock and disbelief when he heard Ling's words. It was like he was dreaming since she would never even let him closer to her, much less inviting to her place.
He even felt it was an impostor, but as soone with Quasi Law Awareness Realm cultivation, she could tell Ling was real, and he trusted his senses far more than anything else.
"A-are you serious?" He hastily asked as he almost forgot about the dumbfounded hunters behind Ling. He couldn't care less about those small fires when the beauty of his dream just invited him to her place.
"Of course, I've been stuck at the peak of the Soul Manifestation Realm for too long, and now that I think you are the only person I could turn to," Ling replied with an enthralling smile as she had completely changed her perspective about Dennis.
Dennis's eyes burned with passion, and nodded, "Are you kidding ? If not , then who else? You are finally able to see my true worth, Ling. Let's go. We should not waste more ti!"
Winter nodded before she turned around and aningfully said, "You lot, go now, and don't disappoint ."
Dennis looked at the three figures and coolly took out three formation plates and threw them toward them, "Since Ling cares about you so much, then I'll give you these lifesaving formations that can block three attacks from Quasi-Law Awareness Realm. They also contained my mark. If anyone dares to block your way, show it to them, and they'll not dare to ss with you. Don't disappoint Ling, or you will be answering to !"
The smug Dennis then leaves with Ling, leaving behind the three flabbergasted hunters.
"The problem resolved just like that?" Lillian muttered in incredulity.
However, Alina had different thoughts as she quickly said, "We need to save her."
However, Herman didn't let her as he said, "Don't be naïve. Since she dared to go with him, then it ant she had a way to escape him. On the other hand, we are only hindrances to her, and the longer we stay in this place, the more danger we will put her and ourselves. Now, quickly move. I rember the way out from here. The inner court has no Soul manifestation realm experts."
Alina thought it made sense since that woman was able to infiltrate so deep into the sect then it ant she was quite resourceful. But what she was actually afraid of was not being able to et with Ace if Winter wasn't with them.
Nevertheless, what was important was their escape, and she was sure he would find her.
Those three then quickly left the peak court and entered a more bristling inner court. But unlike the peak court, the inner court limit was the soul realm, and the elders here were no match for Alina or Herman.
"Let's use the Ice Mirage. The security seed to be lagging today. It seems sothing big had happened by Third Azure Elder's words, and that's why that woman dared to make a move." Herman took full charge as his figure started to blend with the surrounding.
The girls followed suit as they used their ice bloodline skills and headed toward the outer court.
Afterward, they no longer found any obstacle except for the outer court gates, but they passed through by showing the formation plates that the third Azure Elder gave them, and no one dared to obstruct their way.
As for the exit, they found many people seed to be leaving in groups, and no one was checking anything. Only those who were entering; they had to go through a deep inspection.
Once they left the Azure Wind Mountain Sect, they vanished into the woods surrounding the sect.
However, when they were only a few miles away from the sect, their footsteps were halted because right in front of them was standing a dark hooded figure.
A mischievous voice rang, "Took you guys long enough!"
