"Don't worry. He's no ordinary man. He'll be alright," Liu Chuandao comforted Liu Qing. "He took your brothers because he wanted to train them. He'll definitely watch out for them."
"Jiang Ning's the one that I'm worried about,” said Liu Qing.
Liu Chuandao froze momentarily before smiling in exasperation. His daughter was all grown up now and beyond his control.
He didn't waste any time at all. He discussed briefly with the Senior Elder and the other elders before shoring up the sect's defenses, even going to the extent of using the mountain ants and whichever wild beasts that they could seize control over to boost the sect's defenses.
Anyone who wanted to cause trouble at Qingshan Sect wouldn't find an easy time doing it.
Meanwhile.
The five sects had returned to the base and were in the midst of gathering their things before returning to their own sects.
Ting Chan's death had put everyone on their guard and orders had been issued secretly. Everyone was to stay together instead of acting on their own. The sect leaders and the elders were especially careful to do so.
They weren't going to give anyone the chance to ambush them.
The murderer had killed Ting Chan right before the eyes of his disciples. He could kill them just as easily.
"Let's leave together," suggested Luo Qi.
He did not voice his concerns but his worry was clearly displayed on his face and plain to see. "The journey back will be safer if we watch one another's back."
The other sect leaders did not disagree with him.
With so many powerful fighters gathered in one place, the murderer wouldn't dare to try anything no matter how powerful he
was.
Even the most powerful fighter wouldn't be able to escape that easily when surrounded by the five sects.
The five sects gathered together and prepared to leave the base at the same time. They headed down the mountain with the intention of going their separate ways and heading back to their respective sects when they reached the main road.
The path was long and winding. They might be at the foot of the mountain, but it was still going to take some time to reach the main road.
Throughout their journey, everyone was on high alert, keeping their eyes wide open and not daring to let their guard down.
Luo Qi sat in his sedan chair, his eyes halflidded and seemingly resting.
