"Yes!"

Alex nodded. "I will attack them from the front as to grab their attention while Sherry and Kyle make a surprise attack on their backs. Stina will wait for a bit until they think they can win with their number, at that time, we will break their spirit and rout them completely."

"Understood."

"Then, good luck." Alex took out his rank 6 sword and spear, covering them with his domain. A good impact could draw their attention better, so he shot out a cross Sword Wave, trying to kill their Martial Emperor in a single strike.

"!!!" Jeanne instantly felt this familiar but powerful pressure. Thunder started sparking around her body as she turned around.

"Enemy Attack!" The leader shouted, noticing this pressure as well. He was convinced that this power would strike them after considering how weird Jeanne moved.

The trees covered the sword wave for a split second, letting it strike a Martial Emperor. Even though the Martial Emperor blocked it with his sword, it was futile.

"Ah!" The woman died in an instant.

"Sh*t. We have been had." The leader gritted his teeth. Unfortunately, this distraction caused him his doom as Jeanne appeared behind him, swinging her two short swords.

He turned around and made a powerful swing toward her neck, but this was also another distraction.

He only cut Jeanne's shadow as the real one appeared behind him once again, thrusting her sword on his chest. She smirked. "Heh… you have said many vulgar words toward me. Although it is such a shame to kill you easily, I don't have time to play with the likes of you."

"Impossible…" He gritted his teeth before falling to the ground.

"Jeanne, kill the Martial Kings first," Alex ordered.

"Understood, Master." She happily received his order.

"What? What did she call him?"

"Master?"

"Is he the Master of Spirit Nest?"

The confusion started filling the air among them. Unfortunately, even with that confusion, it did not stop the other Martial Emperors from giving an order.

"We still have our number advantage! Don't panic and attack them. Since the Spirit Nest is full of handsome men and pretty women, we can first capture their leader and enjoy it later! Break that mask of his!"

"That's right. If we capture their leader, the rest will surrender to us also."

The others clenched their weapons. The vulgar males smirked while hungry females licked their lips, preparing to attack them.

"Disciples of Joyful Union Sect, att-!"

"Attack!" Alex stole the march and shouted by using their momentum. He and Jeanne charged at them, taking them by surprise. If they did not have a big group, a slight hesitation like this would prove to be fatal. Unfortunately, they had almost a hundred people. And there were qualitative leaps between Martial Lord and Martial King, making it even harder to kill them.

They gripped their weapons tightly, ready to charge at Alex and Jeanne, albeit once again, Alex turned the tide around.

Alex smiled as Sherry and Kyle appeared in his line of vision.

"Kyle!"

"Yes!"

Both Sherry and Kyle raised their hands at the same time, making two phoenixes.

"Cry!" The phoenixes flew out at the same time, trying to strike their rear. For those people who charged at him, they did not have time to block these attacks.

"Boom, Boom!"

The phoenixes exploded at the same time, engulfing half of them with fire. Alex only clicked his tongue, looking at this battle.

The attack only killed ten people who took the full brunt of that attack as what the Spirit Eyes showed him. If they were at Martial Lord, those two phoenixes alone might kill thirty of them.

"Who is that boy and girl?!"

"The boy is cute. Look at that little wing, is he cosplaying?"

"The girl is not losing to that blonde girl over there. And that ears and tail, is that even real?"

"Don't panic. Split our people to two and attack them at the same time. Even though they are Martial Emperors, it is not easy to kill disciples of the Joyful Union Sect!" A man roared within their rank.

Alex checked his surroundings, making sure no other people were around. He smiled. "It would seem I don't need to hold back at the moment."

The Phoenix Seed released his Pure Fire, suppressing all disciples who had the same element. Surprisingly, a little less than half of them were suppressed, taking a bit of his energy just to suppress them.

"Jeanne, kill all of their Martial Emperors." Alex adjusted his plan and ordered, "Change of plan. Kill them all."

Sherry and Kyle knew this order was not directed at them. Instead, it was for a woman who finally made her appearance in this place. She was enveloped with fire while having a serious expression. She muttered to herself. "How dare you to think something vulgar to my husband. Be gone thots!"

A lotus appeared above her head and a petal was falling toward the group. As soon as it touched one of them, it created an explosion bigger than the phoenixes, killing ten more people.

"Fire Lotus, First Petal. Fire of Jealo… Ahem, Fire of Supreme Phoenix!"

"Boom!"

"Argh!"

"Martial Emperor… I can't see through her cultivation!" One of the Martial Emperors uttered in shock. With her power alone, she would undoubtedly get an Elder Rank in the Joyful Union Sect and they certainly knew they could not win against their elders even with this number.

"Ru-" Just as he was about to announce it, Jeanne appeared behind him and sent his head flying.

Stina clapped her hand as the lotus burst out, shooting its petals in all directions. The petals stopped in mid-air, surrounding them like a cage.

"Fire Lotus, Fourth Petal. Fire Formation." She smirked, having an intention to kill anyone who dared to have a lustful thought about him. "Even in this second life, my husband's first time is for me to take."

Alex shuddered for a moment and wanted to say, 'Please wait until he grows up so it won't be censored.'

Shaking the thought away, he killed all the fire elements while suppressing them. This technique used a lot of energy, so he could only maintain it for a few seconds. He also needed to suppress their soul, barring them from moving.

A few minutes later,

They managed to wipe the enemy out, leaving no one alive before burning their bodies to erase the evidence.

Alex took a deep breath, feeling he wasted too much Spiritual Energy despite fighting against a small number. He asked Sherry, "Is this normal? Can we even fight against a hundred thousand enemies like this?"

"It might not be possible to confront a hundred thousand enemies head-on with a little number we have. We can use guerilla tactics, removing a thousand or so at a time, reducing their number bit by bit. Or we can use Array to trap them. The easiest way was to have the same number as them.

"Luckily, they should not have those many people above Martial Kings. From our data, each first-rate influence would have a few thousand Martial Kings and hundreds of Martial Emperors." Jeanne explained.

"Well, if that is all, then we surely can." He nodded. "By the way, how could they chase you?"

"I was unlucky this time. The moment I flew out, they somehow spotted me and chased me. I am sorry, Master."

"... I should apologize too, since I might be the one who brought the bad luck," Alex apologized with a troubled look.

"Anyway, I will use my Teleportation Array in our journey as to prevent any bad luck from happening again," he said.

Unbeknownst to him, he still had a few other misfortunes. He did not know it yet as it did not impact him directly, at least, not yet.

Sherry, Kyle, and Stina went back inside his body while Jeanne nodded. She pointed at a specific direction. "Our base is a bit farther that way."

"I will tell you if we are close."

"Alright." He created a magic circle and disappeared together with her.

After several teleportations, Jeanne stopped him and led him on foot. They arrived at the base beneath the sack, entering it from the main entrance.

Sherry and the others, including Anya, came out. All his spirits except Nelson and the spies were here.

"Young Master (Alex)." They greeted him at the same time.

"Big Sister Anna!" Sherry leaped toward her, hugging her waist.

"Ahaha… So, this is Sherry. I heard from Anya that you are a cute fox girl that almost brought Alex to a path of no return."

"Oi." Alex narrowed his eyes, looking at Anya.

"Ahaha… I am joking." Anya looked away.

"Anyway, I am happy to see all of you here." Alex smiled, checking their status.

It would seem their killing count had decreased drastically and could not level up that fast without his EXP card. He realized. 'Now that I think about it, I usually use my EXP card to raise their level. It seems I need to raise their level after this. I also need to use my Premium Tickets and test the new Inventory system after completing the mission…'

"Young Master," Leoz called him with a troubled look. "Since we have been summoned back, we get a glimpse of that young master you met in that city. Actually, he is the Young Master of the Joyful Union Sect…"

"Huh? Isn't he in Klard City?" Alex was confused.

"I have said that he is going to Klard City, right? It's because I don't know whether he has arrived or not." Anna sighed.

"Well… I need information and the impact if I kill him first. Besides, how is the situation over here? I need a detailed report. And maybe pictures for all important figures."

"I have the pictures here. As for the overall situation, I will explain it to you 'after this.' The most important thing will be the matter concerning the Joyful Union Sect. Out of all influences on this continent, this one is annoying us the most. We actually want to burn their sect long ago, but wait for you to go back first."

Alex checked the others' expressions and knew they also felt the same way. "Alright. Explain it to me."
