Association.

"Woho?" Alex scanned the assembly of women in the courtroom, his astonishment evident. Not a single man was present; even the guards resembled women in appearance.

"Dare you—" Before one of the women could react, Alex strode into the room, surveying the surroundings. What awaited him left him dumbfounded.

He had entered a realm of ethereal beauty, every woman present exuding an aura of perfection. Clothed modestly, their allure remained undeniable. Their appearances, interwoven with grace, mesmerized Alex, and he almost felt as if he had entered paradise itself.

"Greetings, ladies... this is indeed an unexpected surprise. Could you kindly inform me of our current location?" Alex began before he was rudely interrupted.

"SHUT IT!!!" The leader of the gathering unleashed an aura that was intended to intimidate. To Alex's amusement, he felt no pressure whatsoever, but he decided not to reveal this.

"Take your baby Aura out of here little girl if you don't want me to take it." He said this with a smile.

"Huh!!!"

"How is this possible? What..."

"Impossible!"

The attendees were aghast. It was a rare sight for their leader's authority to be challenged so brazenly. Their sect had seldom encountered anyone they could not vanquish. But now, this newcomer was resisting their leader's aura.

"Who are you?" The leader inquired, trembling slightly.

"I am Zhi Li, successor of the Scarlet Carnage Sect and disciple of the most formidable figure on this continent," Alex introduced himself.

"WHAT!!!" The leader shot to her feet, her fear palpable as she swallowed hard. Abducting someone with such immense power was a perilous endeavor.

"Calm yourself, Leader. He is restrained by Qi Suppressing chains; he cannot escape," one of the attendees with blue hair reassured her, scrutinizing Alex dismissively.

But...

BANG!!!

Alex wasn't there anymore.

"Yo... I can hear you you know that right?" like a ghost he appeared behind them.

"SHIT!!!"  The blue-haired girl jumped down like a scared cat.

BANG!!!

She threw a technique at him.

"Calm down now, If I wanted to hurt you people i would do it already." Alex smiled and went to the place he entered.

BANG!!!

He took off his handcuffs

"NO HIDE NOW---" Before the girl noticed something Alex threw it in the window.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

"Okay now we got rid of that, please introduce yourselves." Alex smiled and stood there.

"HOW DARE YOU---" Girl stopped someone who looked like she wanted to fight Alex.

"My name is Zhi Qing, i am a leader of the Purple Flower Association... the place where you stole that girl from." The leader introduced herself.

Alex now looked at her and realized, she had purple hair like Fengying and blue eyes she had a perfect body as he could see it.

"Oh... Well, i didn't steal anyone she decided to become my disciple after seeing my powers, i also told her to make sure she left the Association, and she did say she left... Association or not Fengying is now---" Before he finished saying something he heard someone mock what he said.

"Someone like you can be anyone Master, you look like you are barely 30." One of the girls behind the leader said this.

ButBANG!!!

Alex vanished and reappeared behind the girl with blue hair.

"You should know that interrupting someone when they are conveying important information is rather impolite," he whispered in her ear.

"ZHI YUN!!!" Another attendee reprimanded, but Alex paid it no mind.

"Very well, ladies, it was a pleasure meeting you all, but I must be on my way. Apologies for the door; it was just wood, after all. You'll need to employ formations for greater security," Alex remarked before exiting the room with Fengying, leaving the astonished women in his wake.

"Wait." Zhi Qing, the leader, called out, clenching her fists.

"Yes?" Alex turned back, smiling politely.

"You cannot leave," she asserted.

"I see... But who can stop me here?" Alex inquired, maintaining his affable demeanor.

"I will." A giant of a woman with a prominent scar across her face jumped forward.

BANG!!!

She stood at a towering three meters, her muscular physique adorned with visible abs, presenting an imposing figure.

"Lan Yu..." Zhi Qing muttered.

"Yes, I w—" Lan Yu's words were abruptly halted.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Alex unleashed his aura, weaponizing it in the process. The resulting force shook the very heavens, pressing down on everyone in the room. Even Zhi Qing, their leader and the most powerful among them, felt the oppressive weight, although it did not incapacitate her.

"So, I wonder if you are the only one who can oppose me, Zhi Qing... If you wish to hinder my departure, I shall face you. However, if you don't wish to see this place reduced to rubble... I suggest otherwise," Alex warned with a cold smile. "Because should you prove unable to best me..." He materialized before Zhi Qing. "I will claim everything here." With that, he turned to leave.

Some of the women attempted to intercept him, but...

"No... Let him," Zhi Qing commanded.

"But..." The girls gritted their teeth, in the past, there had been many people who infiltrated their Association but not many of them survived escaping it... they could not believe they were letting someone go.

But Zhi Qing knew she wasn't Alex'es enemy and if they fought her association would be immediately exposed to their enemies, as an Assassination group they had many enemies that needed their location to destroy them and they got so many of them if someone spread their location they would be immediately destroyed.

Alex exited the room and glanced back at the bewildered assembly.

"I will take this, thank you." He picked up Fengying and left.

"We cannot fight him... He's too formidable. Even if we win, something catastrophic will occur. His background is far too mysterious," Zhi Qing sighed, recognizing the futility of combat.

But something unexpected occurred.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

An enormous saber slashed through the entire building, halting right in front of Alex. The saber was colossal, more than thirty meters in length, and Alex couldn't even see its entire form. He had instinctively dodged the initial attack.

"Well, I don't—" A voice descended from above, and as Alex looked up, his eyes widened.

"What in the world?"
