Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 1122  Old Man in the Sea of Mist

Deciding not to bother the rabbit demon beast after it disappeared inside his robe, Xuan Hao instead turned his attention towards the squirrel demon beast that had not yet discovered him and was still busy training.

Squeak? Only after feeling his gaze did, it come to a stop and looked over with a surprised expression plastered all over its little face as it suddenly seemed to remember him. Not a second later, the squirrel seemed to understand what had happened to the rabbit demon beast as it nervously began approaching Xuan Hao. Not knowing what to do, as it was far too fearful of him to dare trying to climb up his robe.

Swish~

Knowing this, Xuan Hao casually waved his hand as the squirrel demon beast was sucked into his sleeve. Not intending to just stand around and wait for the rabbit demon beast to calm down and come out to pick up the squirrel demon beast.

"Senior…"

Seeing the two demon beasts disappearing, Chu Li could not help nervously calling out to Xuan Hao. Hoping that the senior was satisfied with the help he had provided to the two demon beasts over the past year.

"No need to worry, I see that you helped out those two quite a bit over the past year and I'm thankful for that." Understanding what was going through Chu Li's head from the nervous expression and expectant look in his eyes, Xuan Hao decided to reassure him before turning towards the wooden gate leading back to the Sea of Mist.

Even if he wanted to chat for a bit longer with Chu Li and possibly find out more about the Blue Sea Empire now that his strength had surpassed the Soul Ascension Realm and he didn't have to worry about being exposed as someone who wasn't a senior, he also understood that he would have to leave the place before the experts from the Blue Sea Empire arrived at the scene.

Although he would be more than capable of escaping from an ordinary Earth Immortal Realm Expert, he didn't blindly believe that this would be the case when encountering some of the more senior Earth Immortal Realm Experts. Especially if these people happened to be skilled in the Dao of Space.

If he really did encounter someone skilled in the Dao of Space, that person would be able to seal space and prevent him from teleporting away, something Xuan Hao wanted to avoid if possible!

And that is not mentioning the fact that an expert above the Earth Immortal Realm was very likely to show up due to the sheer number of illusory beasts that had managed to escape from the Valley of Illusory Beasts- no, it was more accurate to say that the Blue Sea Empire would have no way to deal with the illusory beasts unless an expert above the Earth Immortal Realm took action to calm down the situation before it grew out of hand.

"Senior? Is something wrong? Did something perhaps happen to the Valley of Illusory Beasts?" Seeing Xuan Hao already about to leave, while also picking up the fact that he didn't come out from the wooden of the Valley of Illusory Beasts, Chu Li quickly jumped forward and asked this.

Over the past year, he had been wondering what had happened inside the Valley of Illusory Beasts given that it was the first time it took this long for the Earth Immortal Realm illusory beasts to disappear and retreat back into the depths of the valley.

"Senior! Wait for me!"

However, just as the old man was prepared to get up and escape, a voice echoed out from the wooden gate connected to the Ephemeral Forest as Chu Li came barreling out of the wooden gate.

"Chu Li? Is there something you want?"

Chu Li! Isn't that the young prodigy from the Four Sea Armies?! What is someone like that doing here… And senior… Is that person perhaps one of the four sea generals!?

Listening to the short question from Xuan Hao, the old man's mind began to spin as a shiver ran down his spine. Instantly realizing who Chu Li was and starting to guess the identity of Xuan Hao.

No matter what, for Chu Li to call Xuan Hao a senior, it meant that he wasn't just an ordinary Earth Immortal Realm Expert, but someone above that. Possibly even one of the four sea generals. Terrifying beings who stood infinitely close to the realm above the Earth Immortal Realm!

Considering the fact that he had just killed an Earth Immortal Realm Expert from the Blue Sea Empire not too long ago, the old man could not help feeling a shiver run down his spine as he did his best to make himself disappear. Silently praying that the terrifying being that Chu Li referred to as senior didn't notice him.

Even if he did, he hoped that the news of what he did hadn't managed to spread to the higher ups of the Blue Sea Empire and would only be known among some of the weaker Earth Immortals of the Blue Sea Empire.

"Huh? Who is that over there?"

However, before he even had the chance to relax, Chu Li noticed him and called out with a curious expression on his face. Clearly wondering who he was. Having clearly felt the Earth Immortal Realm aura around him.

I'm doomed!

Hearing what Chu Li said and feeling the gaze of both him and Xuan Hao turning towards him, the old man could not help feeling a shiver run down his spine. Understanding very well that the next few seconds would determine whether he would live or die.

"Hehe, don't mind me, I'm just recovering from an injury I sustained in a battle with a demon beast not too long ago."

Now that he had already been spotted and was called out by Chu Li, he could only try his best to remain calm before going over to meet the two. Silently praying that none of them knew anything about him killing an Earth Immortal Realm Expert from the Blue Sea Empire, as that would undeniably result in the senior standing beside Chu Li killing him on the spot!
