Chapter 292 The Secret Hideout! Entering the Domain!
"Well, I am sorry about that, but this was important; after all, this concerns your Feng Empire."
"How…?" Seeing the smug look on Noah's face, Wuhan felt like tearing the skin off of the boy's body.
But right now, his curiosity was more dominant than the anger in his heart.
"I am just that good at reading a person." Noah replied with a proud grin on his face, "And you are wearing the emperor robes with a seal stamped 'Feng' on your waist."
Wuhan immediately looked down and saw himself still wearing the emperor's robes and the cloak or what was left of it.
Since the cloak was a simple piece of cloth, it was shredded in the air during his chase.
"So, what makes the emperor build a sect of his own like this, hidden from everyone and even hiding your identity like that?" Noah's voice was laced with genuine curiosity.
"Aren't you good at deducing things?" Wuhan did not back down and shrugged at him. "Try to find the answer by yourself."
"I would love to chat like this, but we don't have the time." Noah chuckled before he waved his hands and changed his clothes to pure black ones.
Then he moved his hands and brought out a mask to place it on his face. Wuhan raised his eyebrows, seeing Noah's action.
"I will help you deal with your pest problem, and you will owe me once more." hearing Noah's distorted voice, which slowly became more mellow and different from his original one, he looked at him in shock.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw that Xin Yan was already standing in a similar getup. He did not even notice when she had changed her robes.
What shocked him the most was that he could not sense Noah and Xin Yan standing in front of him.
"What do you mean, I would owe you?"
"You will see once you follow after me." Hearing Noah did not explain much and turned around.
*Woosh!*
Watching Noah and Xin Yan rushing into the forest, Wuhan paused to think for a moment before following them. For him, the most important thing for now was to remove the cancer from his empire.
He used his own soul sense to cover his tracks and presence.
'Don't use your soul sense to scan the area; there may be some array formations for that.' Wuhan wanted to expand his soul sense and scan the area in front of them for any dangers, but before he could even do it, Noah's voice entered his mind, stopping him.
He did not like entering enemy territory without knowing anything, but he also found Noah's words reasonable.
In next to no time, Noah came to a halt and took cover behind a tree, Xin Yan and Wuhan followed behind and took cover as well.
*Humm!*
All of them had their eyes focused on the portal right in front of their eyes.
Wuhan narrowed his eyes; with his experience, he could tell that this portal was made in recent times, meaning that someone in the soul phase realm died recently to form this place.
'If this was made on purpose, no one truly understands the depths of this organization. To have their powerful members commit suicide just to make a place to hide.' Just thinking about it sent shivers down his spine.
What he did not understand was why this place looked so deserted; wherever his eyes could see, he did not see a single living soul in the area.
'Are we really in the right place?' Looking at Noah, he sent a thought transmission.
'No need to worry about it; we are in the right place. Watch this.' Noah instantly replied back before he made a set of seals with his hands.
*Woosh~*
*Kaa..Chinnkkk*
In an instant, the whole area trembled; even the air started to twist and turn before everything shattered like an illusion.
"Hiss~" Wuhan sucked in cold breath seeing how the portal was surrounded by several array formations and traps. But the most scary thing was the three coffins right in the middle of everything.
He could feel the aura coming from the coffins lying on the ground. All three of them were cultivators in the golden core realm.
'Should I make a move?' Wuhan asked, ready to make a move. But Noah shook his head, throwing water on his excitement.
'You just stay here and keep an eye on the surroundings.'
Noah walked out from his hiding place and deactivated the traps and formation with a tap of his feet.
Under Wuhan's disbelieving eyes, he walked up to the coffins and removed the cover of the one closest to him.
Inside the coffin, a man was lying with his eyes closed and his arms crossed on top of his chest.
~Shhaaa~
As soon as Noah removed the cover of the coffin, the man sleeping inside it opened his eyes and moved to rip Noah's throat with his hands.
Fortunately, Noah reacted on time and dodged the attack. He extended his index finger and pressed it against the forehead of the man.
*Zheng!*
He sent a pulse of soul energy through his finger and turned the mind of the corpse to paste.
After dealing with the first corpse, he followed to do the same with the other two corpses.
After dealing with them, Noah pulled the corpses from the coffins, and the others also came out of their places and approached Noah.
"It's the Demonic Sects after all." Wuhan frowned seeing the corpses lying on the ground. "Corpse Embrace Sect?"
Despite having strong suspicion, Wuhan did not immediately jump to any rash decisions.
"I don't think so." Noah, who was analyzing the corpses with his soul sense, noticed something. "They were not completely dead. Their souls were being controlled by something, and their cultivation also feels weird."
Hearing Noah's words Wuhan and Xin Yan used their soul sense and noticed the difference as well.
"It's like it was forcefully increased."
"Looks like these people have a way to make the most formidable suicidal army." Xin Yan and Wuhan spoke simultaneously, lost in their own thoughts.
"Well, there is no point standing here; let's enter the domain." Noah shrugged and walked towards the portal.
