153: explode

"Boom!"

A massive mushroom cloud appeared in the center of the city. A house had been blown into fragments, and a large amount of dust rose above it.

Everyone was startled upon hearing the noise, and many Cultivators walked out to look in this direction.

"Did the alien race launch a sneak attack? What is that noise? Why is it so loud?!"

"Oh my god, I was just using the toilet, and I was so scared I almost fell into the pit. That sound was truly loud as hell!"

"What's going on? The commotion seems to be coming from the Heavenly Profound Sect Chief's residence!"

"Could it be that someone is planning to sneak attack the Heavenly Profound Sect Chief?"

...

While everyone was discussing this, a squad of guards had already run over. After understanding the situation, they left, feeling both amused and helpless.

Little Fatty Bai's face was charred black, and his hair had been completely burnt off by the explosion. He sat on a stone bench, looking at Li Haotian with some embarrassment.

"Since you blew up the room, you will sleep in the woodshed from now on. If the woodshed gets blown up, you will sleep in the courtyard."

Li Haotian calmly took a sip of tea. This Disciple had also startled him at the time. He had been Cultivating when a loud noise came from the room next door, and then the wall shattered.

Immediately afterward, the entire house exploded into the sky, and the flying debris successfully smashed down one of the walls of the room Li Haotian was staying in.

"Cough cough, I really didn't do it on purpose, Revered Master!"

Little Fatty Bai revealed a difficult smile, and was subsequently glared at fiercely by Crimson, who was beside him. He had no choice but to obediently go and rebuild the wall.

He arranged the bricks neatly in their original positions one by one. After repairing Li Haotian's room, he looked at the ruins on the ground, feeling both amused and helpless.

"Oh my god."

Zhang Hai walked into the residence and saw the mess, his mouth instantly agape in surprise. For a moment, he even suspected that the alien race had snuck into the residence to cause destruction.

But when he saw his Revered Master sitting there very calmly drinking tea, Zhang Hai felt a little relieved.

"Revered Master, Senior Sister has already left the town and headed to the outside world."

Li Haotian nodded: "I know."

Zhang Hai told Li Haotian everything that had happened in the military camp recently. Because of his outstanding performance in the previous battle, he had now been promoted to Chiliarch.

"You kid actually managed to get a promotion, not bad. Get to know him; that guy building the wall over there is your Junior Brother, a Disciple I just took in."

Zhang Hai turned his head to look, and happened to see Little Fatty Bai, who was revealing a row of big white teeth and waving at him.

"Revered Master, how come your standards for taking in Disciples have dropped lower and lower? This guy is so young yet already bald; he might have some kind of illness."

Little Fatty Bai, who had been smiling very happily, was instantly speechless. One act of initiative had resulted in a lifetime of introversion.

Li Haotian smiled, then took out a few jars of wine and started drinking with Zhang Hai and Crimson in the courtyard.

"Revered Master, Senior Sister's journey this time will likely be fraught with danger, and there hasn't been any news from Junior Brother either. Since they have both left, should we send people to follow them?"

Li Haotian shook his head upon hearing this. He would absolutely not order anyone to follow his Disciples. Although he had four Peak Great Emperor Realm Experts by his side, the System had strict requirements that could not be violated, otherwise the mission would be considered a failure.

Li Haotian was still counting on those Death Squad Cards to further boost the strength of Spirit Gathering Peak.

These days, Lin Tianxuan had been guiding the four Peak Great Emperor Realm Experts in their Cultivation. As the Grandmaster of the Heavenly Profound Sect, he naturally had to teach his juniors. Once they became stronger, it would be equivalent to adding to Li Haotian's own strength.

"This wine is truly delicious. Is there any more? I want to take some back for my father to taste; he would definitely love it!"

Crimson's cheeks were flushed. After pouring another cup of white wine into her mouth, she said happily.

It was rare to come across such good wine, and Crimson did not want to use her internal spiritual energy to dispel all the alcohol. If she did that, the hazy feeling of being slightly tipsy would be gone.

This kind of wine was simply amazing. After a few mouthfuls, she immediately felt dizzy, and Crimson was very satisfied.

"I'll give you five jars. This wine is something I brewed myself; it has a high alcohol content, so drink slowly, don't get dizzy later."

Li Haotian said this while taking the wine out. Crimson nodded repeatedly and put the wine away.

A stable spatial fissure persisted within the town. After being here for a period of time, Li Haotian had finally figured it out.

There was a fairly stable spatial fissure here, connecting this world to the Heavenly Domain.

At the same time, there was another spatial fissure connecting to where the alien race was located. This place was like a transit station, but it also possessed a large amount of resources.

Various crystal cores had made the Human Race covet this place for a long time, and they had started mining them.

The Human Race's Fissure was in the very heart of the town, guarded by a large number of Cultivators. It was absolutely impossible for the alien race to easily sneak into the Heavenly Domain.

"Young Master Li, did you know? This town was once breached."

Crimson's eyes dimmed slightly, and her tone became very heavy.

Li Haotian immediately became interested. For such an important city to have been breached, the alien race must have deployed an extremely powerful army to make that possible.

"At that time, the person responsible for defending this place for the Chiyuan Sect was my mother. Not a single Disciple from the Chiyuan Sect escaped back; they all died on the battlefield. Ever since then, I intended to take over my mother's position and defend this place."

Crimson's eyes were slightly red. Perhaps it was only in front of Li Haotian that she would reveal her most vulnerable side.

"My condolences. All we can do now is defend this place well. Only when we become stronger in the future will we have the chance to take revenge. My own revenge has yet to be exacted either!"

The image and voice of Immortal Master Wu Shang still seemed vivid in his mind. The more Li Haotian thought about it, the angrier he became. His own Revered Master had clearly been such a kind person, yet he had been killed by these alien scum!

"I have already written about the matter between the two of us in a letter. Later, I will find someone to send it back to the Chiyuan Sect along with these five jars of wine. You saved my life; if you truly do not wish to become Dao Companions with me, my Chiyuan Sect will also pay a great price to repay you."

Crimson felt even more dejected, but Li Haotian did not react at all, merely nodding. He truly had no intention of finding a Dao Companion, and saving her life was only because he regarded her as a friend.

When he was in danger, she was the first to arrive by his side. Li Haotian believed in reciprocating kindness; if you treat me well, I will repay you a hundredfold. If you dare to bully me or my people, then I will definitely pin you to the ground and grind you into the dirt!"

Zhang Hai, feeling a bit awkward, pretended to take another sip of wine, then swayed as he prepared to leave and return to the military camp.

At this time, Little Fatty Bai had already finished building the wall and walked over excitedly, wanting to claim credit.

"Take this guy with you to the city wall as well. He is your Junior Brother. I didn't expect to meet a Disciple who wanted to take on an apprentice here. You should still have the Spirit Gathering Heart Method, right? You are responsible for guiding your Junior Brother."

Little Fatty Bai's face instantly fell. Seeing the armor Zhang Hai was wearing, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He was being sent to guard the city wall again??
