By the ti dawn arrived, the grand formation could finally be deactivated. Lucius imdiately slipped away a mont later without anyone noticing.
He received his second identity as the Qinlan Sect’s disciple, but he would use it at another chance because the bigger opportunity was waiting for him back at the Sacred Sakura.
"You don’t want to say goodbye to her?" dea stared at the distant Qinlan Sect.
"Why should I?" Lucius checked his surroundings and took out the teleportation crystal.
"Huu, you need to learn to treat a lady properly. I apparently haven’t taught you about manner yet." dea booed her disciple.
"Let’s return." Lucius put his master back into the soul ring before he vanished, teleporting to the Sacred Sakura Region.
anwhile, a pri disciple sought soone in the outer disciple’s area. Zhuan i was accompanied by one of her senior sisters for a stroll, but she asked to pass through this place, hoping to find Lucius.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t find him anywhere.
"Junior Sister i, who are you trying to find? Is it a little lover or sothing?" The senior sister couldn’t help but tease her restless junior sister.
"I’m looking for my comrade, Senior Sister Yun. He should be around here." Zhuan i tapped her chin and looked around. The surrounding outer disciples were surprised by their arrival.
"Your comrade? Is he in the outer circle? I don’t an anything bad, but that person will be ordinary. You will outlive him sooner or later. Is it worth the thought?" Senior Sister Yun guessed her junior sister harboured a feeling toward this person. Therefore, she was concerned because the ordinary would never be able to reach the talented.
"If a 4th Rank disciple who can eradicate dozens of 7th Rank demonic beasts in one clean sweep is considered the ordinary, then I don’t know what to say, Senior Sister Yun. I am telling you this secret, but he is not inferior to ." Zhuan i whispered close to her senior sister’s ear. Since this senior was the gentlest and caring, she didn’t hesitate to tell this secret.
"Is that true? Then, what did he do in the outer circle? Did he do it on purpose?"
"Yeah, he’s apparently super shy and doesn’t like the spotlight, but he’s a good person if you ignore his cold nature."
"You seem to know him very well. Tell him more, junior sister. We seem to need to check on him."
The two ladies left the outer circle and stopped at a higher ground, looking at everyone in and out of the outer disciple’s areas.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t find the person they were looking for.
"We should ask soone in the outer circle, junior sister..." Senior Sister Yun tried to give advice.
"Absolutely not! That shaless person will think I’m worried about him. I’ll make it just like an unexpected encounter." Zhuan i refused the suggestion without delay.
"Well..." Senior Sister Yun scratched her head. Her junior sister might have fallen to that person.
*Swoosh!*
A gale wind blew fast and strong, flicking the robes and skirts of the surrounding girls.
"Kyaah!" Senior Sister Yun held onto her robe reflexively when the mischievous wind ca to disturb her.
Zhuan i spoke nothing and swung her sword, slashing at that obscene wind. Unfortunately, the wind went past her and mysteriously disappeared.
"..." Zhuan i fell silent, analyzing the wind remnant in the air. She could feel the familiar aura from yesterday’s impolite, suspicious rogue cultivator.
"Is that him?" Zhuan i muttered under her breath.
"Hm?" Zhuan i felt sothing was missing. She checked her cultivation robe’s belt, and her storage pouch was no longer there!
She could only think of one person. That person was not simple for sure, but she never expected him to steal her storage pouch!
At that mont, she recalled the last night’s event. A particular disciple wanted to et her last night at Yun Mountain, but she refused to et anyone at that ti. Her senior sister asked him to leave, and he walked away in annoyance.
"Despicable! I’ll make him pay." Zhuan i clenched her fist.
"Yup, it’s despicable to keep a girl waiting for long. So, are we going to ask soone about him? What’s his na? You haven’t told yet, Junior Sister i." Senior Sister Yun nodded in agreent.
Unfortunately, the one that Zhuan i ant was not the sa person as her senior sister thought.
Nevertheless, she had to discover the truth, as this feud couldn’t be reconciled before she retrieved her storage pouch and taught the thief a lesson.

Lucius returned to the Sacred Sakura Region, the gathering ground at the mountain foot of Sacred Mountain.
However, he discovered that nature was chaotic, and the surroundings looked much busier than usual. Many outsiders especially visited the Sacred Mountain!
"Yo, fellow disciples. You just returned from your duties, yes? Please have a little rest and help us afterwards. The storm just ended last night, and there are a lot of people who will be punished today." Bai Yuchen patted a junior with so sense of seniority.
He beca the senior brother because of the outer mbers of the Elysion Church and the other factions.
"Fellow disciple, may you elaborate on what happened in the Sacred Sakura Region last week? It’s like sothing big just occurred." Lucius greeted as he wished to gain so information from the inford disciple.
"Huh, you also just returned? You missed the battle between Deities, then. Four 10th Rank high devils sched to destroy our turf, the massive crazy monster stampedes, and the calamity storms." Bai Yuchen tried to count it, but too many events happened in a week.
"Hey, Yuchen, stop dilly-dallying. We need to help our elders punish those evildoers." A senior disciple called from afar.
"Yes, I’m coming!" Bai Yuchen raised his hand high in reply. He then waved his hand to the nearby juniors. "Then, that’s all for now, juniors. Have a wonderful day! Ho-ho!"
Bai Yuchen left with his seniors and asked curiously. "The offenders will not have a great outco after offending us. Is that an execution ground?"
"Well, only a few deserve such a punishnt. As for the others, they will be sentenced to forced labour to repair the damaged nature and pay compensation for the damage they caused." The senior brother shrugged his shoulders.
"Sacred Sakura is so powerful. Even though tens of thousands of threats co from all sides, and many Demi-Gods and Deities co to attack, those enemies are nothing more than small fries."
"Keke, they didn’t even manage to touch our gate."
"We have several divine beasts, especially those massive dragons. They stomped the enemies to death."
"Don’t forget about our gorgeous and powerful elders."
"It wasn’t just the original core elders. We have external elders, too. They slapped the enemies and threats into defeat."
"Hum, our shrine priestess hasn’t even made her move yet. However, do you think this attack was a coincidence?"
"It was impossible for it to be a coincidence. They attacked a few days after our Sacred Sakura Goddess went into seclusion for her future divine ascension."
"Well, Her Divine Grace will be out in five days. Those evildoers, the big bosses and the mastermind behind this incident will soon receive their divine punishnt."
"Haha, that would be interesting, but that’s a bit bad. If our Almighty Goddess were to make her move, this world wouldn’t be able to withstand it. We need to do everything for Her Divine Grace."
"You’re right. It will be a disaster if she gets angry and accidentally destroys this world."
Sacred Sakura’s disciples, Elysion Church’s priests, Temple of Law’s monks, and the other people from various factions chatted about the possible outcos that would occur soon.
"..." Lucius was silent montarily after hearing the recent news. He then left the area to et the other wizards and witches.

Several kiloters west of Sacred Mountain’s seven great mountain formations, hundreds of thousands of creatures were gathered in one place.
Whether it was the small insects or the massive demonic beasts, those who ca to the Sacred Sakura Region were gathered there to receive the punishnt.
Sacred Sakura dispatched several Demi-Gods and Deities for this task. There were also many powerful experts and renowned powerhouses. Not to ntion Sacred Sakura’s allies.
There were several 8th Rank and 9th Rank ones at the receiving end, waiting for punishnt announcent. However, nobody dared to voice out any protest, although more than half of their treasures and resources had been confiscated in the na of compensation for damage and invasion. They were also charged with forced labour to repair the damaged nature.
"The evildoers who deserved to die are no longer alive, but you need to be grateful because we understand your predicant. Although you are refugees, you have invaded our region and destroyed our ground. We will set you free once you have repaired the surrounding nature to health. You have five days, and we want everything to be done perfectly. Is there dissatisfaction?" Yusagi announced the final decision like a dictator on Luna’s orders.
Despite the unreasonable order, nobody dared to voice any objection because their lives were more precious.
They were victims, too, but that didn’t take away from the fact they ca like several huge tides, ravaging the Sacred Sakura Holy Land’s territory.
Five days... Even though hundreds of thousands of creatures would work together for it, it was a reasonably short ti to repair such a large damaged area.
Hundreds of thousands of creatures imdiately spread out to repair the damaged area, replant forests, and many other things to satisfy nature.
For those who wanted to escape, no one had the courage because that would an death. Thousands of nature spirits living in the Sacred Sakura Region were also on guard, demanding their hos be appropriately repaired.
