Chapter 60

Itachi left the sect after obtaining what he desired, leaving only the poor Sacred Ground cultivator with a dumbfounded expression as he stared intensely at the wall.

"So, it's like this..." Itachi thought.

The information he was able to glean from the cultivator gave him a sense of what was about to happen in the future, it was a pity that the cultivator belonged to the lower echelon of the sect, otherwise Itachi would have more information about the demon that is sealed in the Heavenly Sword Villa.

Before leaving Heavenly Sword Villa, he visited the place where the demon was sealed and could not detect any apparent abnormalities, it was as if the demon was already dead, or maybe it was waiting for an opportunity to escape the seal.

"I need to check this seal again once the envoy from the Sacred Ground shows up." He thought.

Itachi didn't know it but while he was wandering around the Empire, a big commotion happened in Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace. All because the girl he had seen sleeping with Yun Che seemed to have a talent on the same level as the 30-year-old woman.

Her talent was enough to shock all the female elders to death because they got two new disciples in the sect with talent on par with that of the seven fairies, this would be a huge boost for the future of the sect.

...

On his way back to the sect, Itachi again had the feeling that he was being watched but this time he knew the exact location of the being that was watching him.

Jasmine who was inside his Universe also realized that the being that was watching Itachi seemed to no longer be hiding and wanted to attract Itachi.

At first, Itachi thought only to ignore this being but at the same time, he feared that trouble would come by doing that and that his mother and the sect might be complicated because of it.

"It seems that I have no choice... But looking on the other side, if such a being wanted to kill me then I would have no way to resist with my current strength." He thought.

Looking into the distance, Itachi decided to follow the location that the being had revealed to him, and in a few seconds Itachi disappeared over the horizon arriving in a huge forest that seemed to be filled with Deep Beasts, but due to his cultivation, none of those Deep Beasts dared to face him.

Flying above the forest Itachi could sense some human presences, but all of them seemed to be at the Tenth Level of the Profound Elementary Realm, and this made him feel a little curious and at the same time cautious, after all these human beings could be using some technique to hide their cultivation.

The reason for his caution was also because the 'being' observing him came from this place, and Itachi knows that with mere cultivation at the Profound Elementary Realm one person would never be able to observe another from miles away.

As he approached the village, he noticed that the place looked a bit desolate as if it had recently been attacked, in addition, there were a pair of men and women crying silently as if they had lost something extremely important to both of them.

Scanning the forest with his profound force, Itachi found that in the distance there were 5 Profound Force signatures, 3 adults and 2 children and when he turned his gaze to the pair of man and woman crying he knew what had happened.

"No matter the world, there will always be a tragedy..."

With these thoughts, he disappeared from the small village and reappeared in the sky above the five people, and just as he had sensed earlier it was 3 adults and 2 children and it seemed that the 3 adults were the kidnappers.

Due to his high cultivation, Itachi didn't have to say any words or even come down to talk to the kidnappers, he just made the 3 bandits disappear without leaving any trace behind, thus leaving the two children frightened by the sudden disappearance of their kidnappers.

Looking at the two children and then looking again at the small village, Itachi shook his head as he revealed his position to the two children.

"Don't be afraid, I have dealt with the kidnappers." He said calmly.

The two children looked up into the sky and saw Itachi slowly landing as if a God descended into the world and because of his handsome appearance, these two children were prone to believe that the heavens were blessing them.

"Salvador, thank you!" The boy who a few moments ago had been kidnapped with his sister thanked Itachi as he bowed.

He was no idiot, the three kidnappers from before could easily sweep away his entire clan and the three of them disappeared without leaving any trace behind, which shows whether the person in front of them is dozens of times stronger than them.

The sister who saw her brother bowing to Itachi also followed him and thanked Itachi while asking for help to save her clan that would soon be exterminated by a mercenary group.

Itachi hearing the children's plea for help nodded, it wouldn't hurt to help these children.

"Alright, let's go."

With that said Itachi calmly followed the two children back to the small village, on the way the two children introduced themselves.

The boy's name was Feng Zu'er, and the little girl following him seemed to be his sister who has the name Feng Xian'er.

Instantly Itachi found the Feng surname strange, this was because he had some information about an Empire where the royal family used this surname, and his strangeness increased after Jasmine said something in his mind.

"That mark on the forehead of these two children... If I am not mistaken then that mark belongs to Phoenix."

Jasmine's voice sounded a bit surprised, she didn't expect to find Phoenix descendants on this small planet, but when she looked more carefully it seemed that these descendants couldn't use Phoenix power.

Itachi kept his expression calm, even with Jasmine's speech.

But in his head, he already had a notion of who the 'being' was that was watching him from afar.
