Chapter 161 Fire Marquis
"Nothing, you guys just got distracted while we are walking", Zhan Chen replied to the chubby looking cultivator.
"Oh, that is what happened!", the chubby cultivator nodded his head and then with his other companion, Zhan Chen walked towards the group of Shen clan cultivators.
"Look, it is young master Chen", Li Shu spotted Zhan Chen and yelled out excitedly.
"Why young master Chen is coming from that direction? Is not he supposed to be inside the ancestoral palace?", one of the Shen clan expert spoke in a confused voice. His other companions also turned to look towards Zhan Chen who was coming with another two cultivators.
"Wow! How beautiful", the Chubby looking cultivator became awestruck after seeing Li Shu, Li Yan, Kai Min and others.
"Brother Chen, these are the companies you are talking about?", the chubby looking cultivator looked towards Zhan Chen.
Zhan Chen nodded his head with a smile as he turned to look at his girls. Li Shu, Kai Min, Su'er and Ling'er seemed to be excited after seeing Zhan Chen looking at them.
"But you have never told me that you are traveling with such beauties", the chubby looking cultivator looked towards Zhan Chen with a blaming look on his face.
Zhan Chen felt like he had done a mistake after seeing the expressions of the chubby cultivator and his companion.
"Young master, you have returned", Ling'er hoped towards Zhan Chen and spoke with an excited tone in her voice. Zhan Chen couldn't help but smile after seeing her lovely expression.
"Everyone, we are waiting for Zhan Chen and he is here already. Now, we should leave immediately before anything unexpected happens", Li Han spoke. The other of Shen clan nodded their head and togeth with the chubby cultivator and his thin looking companion, they left towards the entrance of the Cleansing Insense ancient sect.
Once a group came out of the barrier of the inner area, they couldn't enter the inner area of Cleansing Incense ancient sect once again. This was yet another large scale formation that managed to impress the cultivators present.
Zhan Chen didn't have to explain anything. The Chubby looking cultivator and his companion were proved themselves as chatterboxes as they spoke how they had met Zhan Chen while he was meditating. Then, together with Zhan Chen, both of them searched for the group of Shen clan cultivators.
Amongst the Shen clan cultivators, Li Han had his doubt as he had already witnessed the extraordinary means of Zhan Chen. But other cultivators seemed to be convinced as they heard the narratives of chubby looking cultivator and his companion.
Soon, the focus of their conversation shifted from Zhan Chen to the Scarlet moon city.
Both the chubby cultivator and his companion were natives of Scarlet moon city. So, the Shen clan experts chatted with them to gather more information about the Scarlet moon city.
There was a huge crowd of cultivators gathered outside the entrance of Cleansing Incense ancient sect. Many had came out from distant cities after hearing the news about the appearance of an ancient sect.
The Cleaning incense ancient sect could have remain opened for few more days if there was no Zhan Chen. The weapon spirit had to expend a lot of resources to keep open the Cleansing Insense ancient sect. Now that, he had found Zhan Chen, he had no intention to keep wasting the resources.
The entrance was closed after the midnight and now only exit was possible from the inside of the Cleansing Insense ancient sect.
The Shen clan cultivators gathered near an exit channel and they were teleported back to the teleportation hall from where they had entered the Cleaning incense ancient sect.
Zhan Chen spread his soul consciousness towards the distant and a frown appeared on his face after he saw the situation outside.
There were no shortage of experts who were waiting outside Cleaning incense ancient sect. Fifth stage experts were almost thirty and as for sixth stage expert, there were six of them who were observing the barriers of Cleansing Incense ancient sect.
The most troublesome among them was an expert who was riding a ferocious looking beast. He was standing on his magical beast with a golden spear on his hand. There were a huge groups of black armoured warriors who were standing behind him orderly.
Zhan Chen followed behind the Shen clan experts as he continued to watch over the gathered experts. He knew there would be too much problem, if a war had to broke out here. Moreover, there was no one in the Shen clan group who could resist a sixth stage expert.
"Fire marquis", Li Han called out in surprise as he noticed the expert who was riding a ferocious beast as a mount.
"What a ferocious beast!", Li Shu exclaimed as she looked at the huge body of the magical beast.
"That is a wyrm. Moreover, it is a wyrm of peak fifth rank which can cause trouble for sixth stage experts", a Shen clan warrior explained to the group of girls as everyone of the group became more tacitrun.
"We should not move in such a huge group. It is better to make smaller groups and mix in with the crowd", Zhan Chen spoke.
Li Han nodded his head grimly as he looked towards the other Shen clan expets. They had yet to leave the premises of Cleansing Incense ancient sect but they had already seen the fire marquis who was riding his fifth rank wyrm. No one knew how much experts had gathered outside. If they move in such a huge group, then they would obviously attract the attention of the crowd. So, everyone agreed with Zhan Chen's suggestion.
"There is no need to completely separate from each other. Stay in the visible range of each other and gather after maintaining some distance from this place", Zhan Chen spoke.
The Shen clan warriors nodded their heads subconsciously as if there was nothing strange about hearing the order of a sixteen year young cultivator.
Zhan Chen didn't know that he was releasing the aura of an emperor at this moment. He was trying to act normal but there was still the presence of his past life which would never fade away.
He was the imperial prince of mighty Zhan dynasty and there was nothing strange about ordering a group of fourth stage and fifth stage experts. His presence was the reason that the Shen clan warriors had submitted to him subconsciously. Even they were not aware that their hearts were affected, including Li Han.
Zhan Chen followed after the group of Su'er and Ling'er but he was observing the situation of entire Shen clan group with his soul consciousness.
"Young master, what kind of inheritance have you got from the ancestoral palace?", Su'er looked towards Zhan Chen curiosly.
"What, are you interested in learning the technique I have got?", Zhan Chen smiled towards Su'er.
"No, I am just curious. Besides that we have got something interesting that may help young master", Su'er spoke.
"Oh, what is it?", Zhan Chen looked towards Su'er with interest.
"Actually, we are told not to reveal it infront of everyone. But we can't hide anything from young master and young miss", Su'er spoke. Ling'er nodded her head from the side.
"Hmm, then it most be a good thing", Zhan Chen spoke as he looked towards both of the girls with interest.
