Mission 2 and Conspiracy

Thirty minutes later, two people came back and stood before Aolig. They are the ones in charge of the camp.

Aolig looked at them, they were both in peak immortal emperor realm, she was surprised that the academy would send these two to hold down the fort since the spirit stone mine in question is a high grade spirit stone mine.

"What are your names?" Aolig asked as she ate the spirit fruits before her.

"Saintess I am Loke, disciple of Sword sage," the younger man reported.

Aolig looked at him again with interest and nodded.

Sword sage is a well known ancient sage in Lhney Academy.

"Saintess I am Yarey, disciple of Sword sage," the older man said.

Aolig smiled, she became friendlier. Sword sage is one of her friends among the ancient sages in the academy.

Moreover these disciples are extremely talented to be in this realm in less than thirty years. No wonder they sent them here, maybe to look for opportunity to breakthrough.

"How come it became like this, the Barbarians have become extremely arrogant to kill my fellow disciples?" Aolig asked still angry.

That was when they told her what happened.

It happened that minor sage was holding down the fort five months ago. Later the Barbarians attacked with a dao ancestor sage, the minor sage was killed.

What saved them was the talisman personally given by Sword sage which heavily wounded the dao ancestor sage.

Since then the Barbarians left, that was when they reported back to the academy and demanded for a great dao sage, Aolig then took the mission.

"Okay you can leave tell the disciples that we will meet tomorrow," Aolig said after some considerations.

Loke and Yarey bowed and left.

They felt better when they left. The kind of pressure they felt when they stood before Aolig was terrifying.

"Saintess is terrifying," Loke said in admiration. Yarey nodded.

They have both heard about the saintess, but this is the first time they have seen her up close.

"Is she an ancient sage?" Loke asked in confusion. The pressure he felt is no less than the one he feels before their teacher.

"Not yet, she would be when she breaks through to dao ancestor sage realm," Yarey said.

They both went and informed the disciples about what Aolig instructed.

Back at the barbarian camp, the barbarian sage Kona was very angry. He has never been humiliated like this before. He looked at his fingers that seemed to be dead, that was an indelible mark.

"What kind of ice dao does that girl practice?" he muttered.

Then he heard someone knock on his door. He was very annoyed.

"Get out!" he shouted coldly. These disciples were also the reason he suffered such humiliation today.

He hadn't even punished them and here they were asking for trouble.

The door opened instead.

"I told you to…," Kona stopped talking when he saw four men before him. One has a snake like eyes, he seemed to be the leader.

Kona gulped down.

It seemed that I have a bad luck today. These people before him he couldn't even see their cultivation.

That means two things: either that their cultivation is higher than his or that they are mortals but the former is definitely the case considering their boldness.

"You… what do you want?" Kona asked fearfully.

"It is not good to keep your visitors standing," Kal said, his snake like eyes darting around. He was looking at Kona like an ant, aloof and remote god giving verdict.

"My bad, here," Kona said as he brought out chairs from his spatial ring.

He felt disgusted in his heart but he couldn't do anything because anyone of them could pinch to death.

"I want to cooperate with you, you lead your disciples to attack the stone mine. You take the stone mine but Aolig belongs to us," Kal said condescendingly.

"Aolig?" Kona shivered.

So that girl is Aolig. 'What will happen to my clan if something happens to her?' Kona thought.

"I know you don't want to do it, but you have no choice," Kal said with a sneer.

Later they forced Kona to swear a great dao oath. At least he won't reveal the information to anybody.

Kona decided that after the deed was done, he would escape from Lhney and travel the multiverse, after all there must be a place for him in the vast multiverse and the chaos.

Under the moonlight, a beautiful woman with a long black hair and silver eyes and a baby bump looking like she walked out of a painting sat down looking at the moon.

She seemed lost in thoughts.

"What do I name you?" she asked her unborn child. It would soon be ten years since she got pregnant.

It is already known that the child will be extremely talented and his bloodline would be topnotch.

The unborn baby kicked, maybe to respond to it's mother call. Aolig smiled resplendently, it was breathtakingly mesmerizing.

'Why do I have a bad premonition since coming here?' Aolig thought.

She remembered her previous suspicions on the way like someone was tailing her.

"Well let us set arrays here first," Aolig said.

Aolig proceeded to set the all seasons bewildering array.

All seasons bewildering array is a peak transcendent array that causes anyone that is trapped in it to experience the four seasons why sucking away their life essence.

"Wah! Wah!"

All seasons bewildering array is a very terrifying and sinister array. Aolig being a transcendent array master could barely set it up before morning.

She found a corner a sat cross legged to meditate and recover to her peak before the meeting later in the morning.

About four hours, Yarey had gathered all the disciples who were in mission in the camp.

She distributed healing pills and spirit stones to them to help them recuperate why they observe the Barbarian movement.

All the disciples left happily.
