*Sweesh* *Sweesh*
"Did you find anything?" A hoarse cold voice sounded from a tall dark cloaked figure standing before the destroyed part of the outer forest.
All of the trees were uprooted and blown to smithereens, various tangled and unrecognizable corpses were lying around.
"No, my Lord. There are only dead bodies, according to our tally everyone from the Sacred family is dead! We even found the corpse of vice-president's son." The subordinate of the tall man spoke his voice shuddering.
There were so many experts here. Even a top ranked Black Gold Rank couldn't defeat so many of them in a short time much less annihilate them all.
"The opponent is very dangerous, we should alert the guild and update his profile. Even though we weren't much far away, it took us around ten minutes to reach here, in this short period he killed everyone including three at black gold rank. Even if many died due to explosion, his strength cannot be underestimated." The tall figure coldly stated,
He himself dont have enough confidence in capturing someone like that. They would need a team comprised of many Black Gold rank experts for such an enemy.
'But considering how cunning this person is, It's a tall task to even find him.'
"Lets retreat for now, people from Glory City could come at any time to investigate." The team left immediately. They were a team of Dark Guild assigned near the premises of the forest to make sure other families doesn't interfere.
Their task was to encircle the elite team from Scared Family and make sure no one can interfere but who would have thought, that the whole team would be dead in just under ten minutes!
Nie Li after seriously injuring the Black Gold Demon Spiritualist didn't took much time to immediately dispose of the trio. He then proceeded to follow the creed of a villan and rob everyone of their interspatial ring.
With a gathering of such high class experts, they are bound to have various riches.
Nie Li was right as he struck gold, he also retrieved and threw the corpse of Shen Fei outside. Since, it was rotting his inventory. Shen Fei carcass was mangled and it has various injuries all over the body, it looked like a zombie with numerous horrifying cuts and an extremely unhealthy pale skin.
Nie Li immediately retreated after he was done. He had already made all preparation, it's an easy task for him to retreat.
Shadow Devil is perfect demon spirit for information gathering, assassination, stalking and disappearing is it's specialty.
.....
The next morning,
Although Sacred Family tried their best to suppress the matter, they still couldn't keep the information secret.
The battle couldn't be hidden, the whole city living around the edges of the forest witnessed the thunderous explosion.
It was rumoured that the Sacred Family lost 2-3 dozens of high personnel experts and even the family heir was found dead. Shen Fei body was already evacuated by the Dark Guild before anyone reached there but they cannot take others away.
Shen Fei body was in a terrible shape looking as if he was put through years of inhumane torture.
Even the cold and ruthless Dark Guild member took a breath of cold air.
Looking at his mangled body, hairs on the back of their neck stood up.
The news of his death wouldn't have reached the public so early if not for Nie Li, who spread the rumours of his demise.
Nie Li wanted to target the Sacred Family knowing full well that more attention the family attracts the more they would appear suspicious.
With them having secret relations with Dark Guild, they had to act very wisely.
Nie Li also he wanted dozens of innocent girls and their families who were wronged by Shen Fei to know that their culprit has met his end.
Unfortunately, this wasn't the end of bad times for Sacred family. Family Patriarch second son, Shen Yue was also found dead on his bed. He was already sick for around a week but his conditions deteriorated exponentially and without anyone able to do anything, his will to live broke and he died.
This horrifying news of one of the major family suffering huge losses and also the death of direct descendants shook many.
Shen Hong vowed to make the perpetrator suffer and not only the Scared Family but other families also tried to screen the criminal out. This is an extremely grave situation, someone so vile and ruthless is in the city. Who knows when they would be targeted by this mysterious person. The fear of unknown shouldn't be underestimated, the whole Glory City was bustling with terror for this.
The City Lord's mansion itself calmed everyone down and promised to find the culprit. The also investigated Sacred family to understand the reason for this cruel fate that befall them.
The investigation couldn't advance much because Shen Hong doesn't trust the City Lord. And his suspicion is not unfounded because only the snow wind family has the ability to clear out so many experts in such efficiency.
Eventually after some time, this act was also added to the notorious list of heinous vile crime committed by Dark Guild. The Glory City security was tighten but nothing could be found.
The various families after calming down started to return to their normal life. People are very ignorant, they would not remember the bad times especially when they were not effected by it.
Everyone instead of worrying set their gaze to gain some profits through politics. Since, Sacred Family is now weakened at least on the surface they wanted to take a bite of its glorious existence.
On the surface various families show their support and condolences but almost everyone was testing the waters to fish for benefits.
Away and apart from all this politics and nonsense, the perpetrator Nie Li was leisurely enjoying his peaceful cultivation. After his breakthrough to peak Gold Rank, he was able to firmly control all of his hired experts putting them at the palm of hand.
Jin, the Gold Rank fighter and Cao Wang, Peak Silver Rank Demon Spiritualist become his eyes and ears. Nie Li not only kept in touch about the Glory city affairs but also supervised his family.
Nie Li was able to amass great wealth from this mission and although he suffered some injuries, it wasn't a big deal and would be healed after some rest.
Nie Li took this opportunity to again purchase Demon spirit stone to create another God level Demon Spirit. The main reason Nie Li was able to showcase such power cannot only because be credited to his breakthrough and A. I. Chip, but it was largely contributed by his two God-level demon spirits.
Nie Li spend his time in his courtyard training, cultivating, refining pills, mastering inscription and guiding Nie Yu.
The little girl was cultivating at an amazing speed thanks to her talent and obviously his guidance and elixir.
Nie Li also tried to install her with different principles and changed her thinking in a subtle manner to always put the family interest first and foremost.
Nie Li don't wish to raise a spineless coward in his house. Nie Yu is a kind and gentle little girl, she could also be potentially pushed and pressured for the so-called 'greater good'.
Nie Li wanted to make sure she understand how cruel this world is, and who are her real supporter and where her allegiance should lies. He didn't want to put her under but tried to tutor her in the way of the world, because he wanted the best for her.
Nie Li sank in a period of rest, he would need some time to consolidate his realm and he wasn't in a hurry to breakthrough again.
He turned his lifestyle a bit moderate increasing his interaction with his family and guiding Nie Yu. He also helped his hired fighter and demon spiritualist who were beyond impressed by his benevolence and 'voluntarily' joined his family to work for him loyally.
It wasn't just out of money anymore, they vowed to work for him and withdraw their names from Fighter and Demon spiritualist association to ever be recruited again.
Nie Li enjoyed this calm life but he was relaxing only on the surface, in fact this was just a ruse because behind the scenes he has started to penetrate the security of various noble family and search through their library and treasury to find something worthy for himself.
