Consciousness Pressure

"Don't be careless. The ordinary cultivators in the Golden Core stage are not a big concern, but the elder among them is probably not simple. Even for me to kill him, it would take some time. And this is Tai'an City, where there are the Immortal-Slaying Guards. If a fight breaks out, it will quickly draw their attention. Once we're surrounded by the Immortal-Slaying Guards, they won't care who made the first move. Moreover, I suspect these Immortal-Slaying Guards have some connection with the Holy Sect; otherwise, these demon sect cultivators wouldn't be able to enter the city!"

His suspicions were not unfounded. Ever since they captured a demon sect cultivator, he had attempted to leave the city with Xiang Yang and Jiang Shang at night, but they had barely left the tavern when they sensed a powerful aura.

That aura was at least at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Feeling threatened, they had no choice but to return to the tavern.
