“Massive milkers?”

Asked Feng Liena as the man was pointing at her. She started looking at her peers that were to the sides. Huo Qiang followed this pointing finger as well and Liena could see his gaze stop at her chest area.

She immediately put her hands to cover up as she realized what the younger man was shouting. Her robe might not have been one of the more revealing ones but her figure was hard to miss.

“What is the meaning of this Soaring Dragon Sect, is this the way you treat other elders?”

While the strongest cultivator by the name of Tong was showing a tired expression. The young man that referred to Zhang Liena’s breasts with milkers started grinning.

“Try as you might, we all know that they are too big to be hidden away!”

“Well, he isn’t wrong…”

“Will you shut up you idiot!”

Huo Qiang shrugged while going back to looking at the enemies that they were standing against. He was a well-trained warrior that was just itching for a fight. Even now he was trying to measure his strength against the other nascent soul cultivators here.

The nascent soul masters that the United Element sect had were slightly different than the ones that came from other factions. For one thing, they were much stronger than their older counterparts.

This was mostly due to how much better their cultivation manuals were which allowed them to jump at least one smaller realm. Then some could further enhance their powers through some skills which could put them at or over the strength of people two small levels above them.

While normally it might have looked bleak from an outsider's perspective. It wasn’t quite as bad, even now defeat wasn’t assured even when they were against a large number of nascent soul elders in the late stage and even one at the great circle level.

“You’ll have to excuse young master Long but if you accept our terms we will quickly leave this place.”

“Old Tong, why are you trying to ruin the fun? It’s not fun if they don’t resist and how many spirit points do you think will be wasted here?”

The elders from the United Element Sect side looked in confusion at the back and forth between the elder and young man. The youngster was a nascent soul cultivator as well but he was not as strong as the old man.

It was clear that the only reason that this man was not acting was that this young man was related to the current patriarch. While the elder wanted to strike the deal it seemed that the man named Long was trying to cut to the chase and just attack them.

Everyone here thought that the young man was quite brazen. They could not get a feeling of his cultivation. Sometimes it was low while other times it raised above what the limit of his abilities seemed. It was clear that he was dangerous and that fighting it out would be the last resort.

“Young master please, I will have to report this to the patriarch if you force us into an unnecessary confrontation with this sect.”

“You’ll tell it to gramps? Fine but make it quick!”

Finally, the elder floated forward while the young man retreated a few meters behind him. Even now he was looking at the sect Matriarch with lustful eyes which gave the mother of two to shudder in disgust.

“I will make it quick, give up that woman there and we will leave. She had been chosen to be the concubine for our young master. This is a great honor, she might even be able to foster the next Patriarch’s son!”

“Have you lost your mind? You wish me to become that bastard’s whore? I already have a husband and children, have you no shame or reason?”

Zhang Liena exploded almost instantly, the elders next to her were taken aback by the revelation. Everyone here had known that the man was here to take away one or more of their women. None of them could have known that this woman would be their matriarch.

This posed a certain problem for the sect. It was fine to give up a disciple that was below the nascent soul level or even an elder but it was different when it came to their backbone.

They would look weak if they just gave her up without getting anything in return. Even then they would be considered a laughing stock by the other sects which might see this as a chance to get something out of it.

“Senior, do you expect us to relinquish our honored matriarch to your sect? Don’t you think that you are being unjust?”

“I am well aware of everything, this does not matter to the Soaring Dragon Sect. The young master desires your matriarch and she will come with us.”

“Hah, you tell them old Tong!”

The old man started changing his tune soon. It was clear that even if this man knew that what he was doing was wrong he could not go against the young master’s wishes. The other elders and the ships started spreading out and even more cultivators appeared as they were clearly ready to act.

“We will of course reimburse you for your loss with high quality spirit stones.”

Elder Tong commented while clearly getting ready for a fight.

“Please give us some time to consider…”

“You have ten minutes and not a second more!”

The young master replied while laughing and then slowly made his way back to the large ship. He was greeted there by a group of scantily clad women, it seemed that even now he was a slave to his lust.

“What do you think of our chances?”

Zhang Liena and the other elders huddled up, their conversations hidden away by the grand formation that was protecting them.

“The barrier should be able to last for a while but without the Patriarch here we can’t activate the grand formation fully… the elders even to this day have not been able to unearth all of the secrets…”

Zhang Dong fashioned this whole sect with the help of his system. It was a fortress that was built to last an extensive attack from all sides but there was a limit. One was the power sources that would be used up and the other were the functions that were locked to his system.

In his absence, his wife had the moderator privileges to the sect grounds, then came his grandfather and disciples. They would be able to activate the basic functions but would not be able to boost them with their lack of cultivation.

Similar to the Thunder tower that belonged to the Thunderball Sect. Only Zhang Dong knew how to fully operate it, without him victory was shaky.

“We stand a fighting chance, the biggest problem is that Tong…”

“Leave him to me!”

Huo Qiang smacked his fists together while getting pumped up. Just like Zhang Dong before him, he also knew a couple of ways to raise his cultivation strength. His cultivation level was the same as the Patriarch so some have hope that he was of similar strength.

“Wait Qiang…”

Feng Liena looked at the red-haired man and then turned around. She looked out into the distance where the city and sect were visible. Her eyes looked up to that large floating castle where she recalled her short blissful life with her husband and family.

She could remember like it was yesterday. His warm touch and the awkward smile that with time turned more genuine. His panicked expression when he realized that the first child was on the way. Then that happiness when her daughter was born and the pampering she received soon after.

She smiled for a moment but then she recalled when the second child was born. The good days were halted and nothing but sadness remained. He was not there anymore to see his son start crawling and utter his first words.

Was he really gone? Would he ever come back? These were the questions that she has been asking herself for a long time. If he was truly dead then it was up to her to pave a path for her children’s survival.

“Liena, what are you planning? You aren’t seriously thinking about giving yourself up to that bastard?”

Huo Qiang’s eyebrows furrowed as he seemed maddened by the fact that Liena was even thinking about taking the Soaring Dragon Sect up on their offer.

“Can you beat him?”

She asked and he quickly replied.

“I can!”

“Then what?”

“Huh?”

“I asked you what will you do, what will we do after we kill them all? Can you say with honesty that we can defend ourselves against the Soaring Dragon Sect? If we manage to push them back they will only return in more numbers and crush everyone till no one is left alive!”

Huo Qiang went silent while the other elders knew the truth to these words. The force that they were against was not that they were afraid of. It was what would come after if they killed them off or managed to somehow outlast their attack.

While all other middle-sized sects would have no way of protecting themselves against something like the Soaring Dragon Sect, this wasn’t the same for them. The whole ground was a massive formation and the buildings were built to last and power it more.

Even without the patriarch the shield that they had here would probably not fall that soon. But it would fall, sooner or later they would run out of options while the other sect could just swarm them with more nascent soul cultivators.

If they wanted the Soaring Dragon Sect could order cultivators from other middle sized sects to aid them. Each of the three large powers had a section of the empire to command and the United Element Sect was under their jurisdiction.

They could do whatever they wished with them and no one would come to their aid. Then if they managed to somehow escape and survive they would not find any shelter. Their faces would be on wanted posters and the only thing they could do is seek shelter in other fringe parts of the empire.

“Even if we win this battle we will still lose the war…”

Zhang Liena commented while turning back to the foe they were facing.

“Damn, if only he was here…”

Huo Qiang shouted out in indignation at the lack of power. He knew that even if he could take care of a couple of the enemies more would just come. He also had a large family and many children. If there was a possibility to just offer up one person to save the rest it was the better option.

“Ten minutes is up, now decide mega milk? I like ya and I want ya, now we can do this the easy way or the hard way, the choice is yours! What will it be?”

The young master shouted out from the large ship that he soon left. The whole sect was already surrounded and it was clear that if she gave the wrong answer all hell would break loose.
