nThe ship turned course to a side island, as they learned the position of the Dawn Concealing Sect’s headquarters.

nMuch like its branch in the Yen Kingdom or the Supreme Master Pavilion in the Tingren Kingdom, this Sect was out in the open.

nHowever, unlike those countries that were under the thumb of the Lust Cultivators, or had sympathizers among the ruling brass, the Kingdom of Lihai’s Royal Family was completely out of their control, to the extent of being off-limits to their influence, exerting strong dominance over the affairs of the region and enforcing a certain degree of law and order.

nTo maintain its status, the Sect officially and legally acquired their cultivation ‘resources’ from the warring countries of the Cloud Piercing Continent, their branch there turning out to be only a relay point to evaluate, acquire and transfer said ‘resources’ to the main Sect.

nHowever, it did not mean they did not have underhanded means in their repertoire as they would use pirates such as the ones that attacked the Fortress Ship, to plunder foreigners, and bandits on the remote islands to do the same with the local populations. The only place they never touched being the Main Island and its immediate vicinity.

nFor the purposes of keeping that business discreet, thus giving face to the Hong Dynasty, the Dawn Concealing Sect was not located on the Main Island, but deliberately chose to be isolated a bit further away on one of the small satellite islands.

nHowever, that said, it did not mean that the island was completely off-limits to outsiders.

nQuite the contrary, it was a place that some wealthy and powerful individuals from the Island Kingdom and the two continents could visit to indulge their deeper, darker desires.

nThis was the way Gui Jianyu maintained his relevance and usefulness to the people behind the Hong Dynasty, the Bahshi Assassination Group, thus ingratiating himself not only before Linghun Mo, but to anyone of power on all Three Continents, as he helped influence the big politics everywhere.

n“What do you think?”, Wu Long chuckled as he turned to Lian Zhiqiu as the island occupied by the Dawn Concealing Sect was becoming near.

n“Mm, I want to try my hand”, she nodded, as her main expertise was creating Spiritual Formations, while her experience in taking control of those made by others, or deconstructing them was actually minimal.

nShe has been interested in it ever since she saw Wu Long do it with such ease, and after asking him, he shared the theory and basic process without any hesitation, thus leaving the beauty craving for a chance to test this newfound skill.

nHe nodded, and gave her some space as a long flagpole appeared in her hands, the large array flag starting to fly with the wind and glow, while ten small array discs floated into the air and then flew at large speeds to make a circle around the entire island.

nLian Zhiqiu’s eyes glowed with an orange-red light, as did the array flag, while her figure was enveloped by the same-colored Spiritual Qi, and the patterns on the array discs floating with the flat face side pointed to the island lit up as well.

nGlowing symbols appeared all around in the air, as Wu Long’s eyes reflecting the light filled with praise.

n‘Heh, a Symbol Master sure makes a difference’, he thought as she did not need thousands of talismans, including specifically manufactured ones for this process, conjuring the same power from her cultivation base.

nLarge glowing array circles appeared in front of her, and in front of every array disc, as the yellow-colored dome of the Spiritual Formation instantly materialized, losing its transparency.

n*Grrr!!!*

nA shudder went through the island as patterns within the ten array circles around the dome turned like combination locks, some movement seen within the barrier as well, as sparks of yellow and orange-red electric arcs appeared here and there. 𝚏rewe𝚘vel.𝚌𝚘m

n“The Sect is under attack! All Sect personnell, listen to orders! Take defensive positions!”, a voice came from within the barrier dome.

n“Heh, I got it”, after some time, Lian Zhiqiu’s lips curled revealing two rows of perfect teeth in a satisfied grin, andas she made a large movement with the flagpole, that caused a large wave-

nlike bouncing movement of her impressive bosom,the patterns of the array circles turned in a certain order, and then flew into the barrier.

n*Buzz*, the entire dome emitted a buzzing sound, and then started unraveling as the protective shell as well as all Killing Formations were deactivated.

n“W-what the…?”, the Deputy Sect Master and Gui Jianyu’s Direct Disciple, a middle-aged looking man, widened his eyes that were looking up at the rapidly expanding blue sky, as the glowing walls of the yellow dome were melting from top center to the sides in a perfect circle.

nWu Long gave one last look to the island, and confirming his initial observations, simply waved his hand forward, as an army of beauties descended on water surface and launched to the beach without submerging or even creating any splashes, while a third of them simply flew from the ship directly to the land.

nDespite the great difference in numbers, the defending forces outnumbering their opponents almost a hundred times over, this was not a battle, but a one-sided massacre in its pure form, with nowhere for the Lust Cultivators to run.

nUnlike the previous Sects of Lust, this one was mixed in gender, but they fell under the blades and Spiritual Qi attacks of the beauties of the Frozen Garden Palace, or even more deadly attacks of the Wu Family members all the same.

nBy the time the sun was setting on the horizon, there were no more Dawn Concealing Sect, or any single one of their members alive while Wu Long did not even have to move from the spot.

n“Xiang’er, have your people join Qiu Yilao and her ladies to help the victims and direct them on board, while…”, Wu Long turned to Cao Xiang, and the beauty nodded, signaling her subordinates, while Wu Long’s gaze turned to Kwon Qianhong.

n“You don’t even need to say it, Boss! I’ve only been waiting for your permission!”, the man energetically replied before the order was even given, as Wu Long chuckled, seeing how enthusiastically this guy ran to loot the place.

n“Heh, there’s likely not going to be a single thing worth a gold coin in this place when he’s done”, Lian Zhiqiu snorted as giggles resounded from the beauties.

nHowever, Wu Long shook his head, replying to the surprised gazes, “You’re looking down on him to much, I doubt there’s going to be left anything worth a copper”
