Chapter 368 Fear
Chapter 368 Fear
When it was night in Peters City, the cultivators sent by enemy families of Lothur and House Frost were already on the outskirts of this young man's property, surveying the area.
However, not only were they there!
While Lothur and Viktoria's house had none of them around at the moment, a man dressed in black, with his face covered by a mask, approached the area from the shadows.
This person had high cultivation by local standards but wore a formation disguise that made him appear much weaker.
But this item did not hinder the powers of the user. So this man could use his abilities easily, quickly noticing each individual in the surrounding area.
'Hmm? Why are there so many people here?' He wondered.
The individuals in the surroundings were also using items to camouflage their cultivations. However, the effectiveness of these items depended greatly on the cultivation level of those trying to observe their users.
Since this person's cultivation level was above the limit of the equipment used by the spies in the surroundings, this newcomer identified the levels of Lothur's enemies.
'Several 3rd and 4th Revolution people...' This fellow's eyes narrowed beneath his mask. 'They are stronger than that Viktoria girl.'
'Why did she do that? Moving from the Frost estate was a dangerous pa...'
This person was thinking about that when he noticed the many traps on Lothur's estate.
'That boy is truly slippery!' He internally laughed. 'There's so much poison and offensive formations in that place that it wouldn't be surprising if one of those spies died if they tried to break in.'
As he pondered this, trying to decide whether to wait for Lothur, deal with those people, or none of the above, another individual arrived in the area, drawing this man's attention.
This other person was also very well camouflaged in black clothing, a mask on his face, and an item that hid his true cultivation.
But just like this first person to identify the traps on Lothur's estate, such an individual had a high enough cultivation to notice the spies in the surrounding area.
'Who are those? Why...' He was considering when he noticed someone in the surroundings whom he could not tell the level. 'Who is that?'
The two looked at each other from the shadows of the trees they were in as the lighting of Lothur's estate outlined the surroundings outside the house.
A few moments had passed since the two had arrived, but the tension in the surroundings was rising by the moment, with one side more or less understanding who the other was.
"Are you here for Lothur too?" One of them asked the other while the many spies in the surroundings swallowed their saliva, startled by the voice that came out of nowhere in that place.
"Who is that? How can I not feel anything?" One of them asked softly to his companion, with many of them asking similar questions to themselves.
They were there to keep an eye on whether or not there were people behind the security of Lothur's estate. So how could they not be shocked that out of nowhere, a voice emerged from that estate they had been watching for hours?
Then a second voice came up. "So you're here for him too..." The first high-level individual to arrive at this place commented as he showed himself to his opponent.
The opponent also showed himself in the inner garden of that estate, separated only by the sides of the large pool there.
"Are you part of his grandfather's group?" The man sent by Lothur's father asked, knowing that it was a possibility to justify someone like that person showing up in this place.
Lothur's father and grandfather were enemies, so it was only natural that one side would try to use this young man to affect the other. In particular, while this fellow's father wanted to hide him, the grandfather would bring Lothur over to his side to make this young man fight his own father!
That was what one side would expect from the other, which made the tensions there rise even higher.
"So you're part of that outlaw's group..." The last individual to arrive commented, already with one of his hands holding a weapon hidden in his clothes.
The other individual was not slow. In the blink of an eye, he drew one of his weapons and attacked his opponent, both acting almost simultaneously.
Clang!
The two weapons clashed as they came face to face, making shrill sounds from the point of contact between them.
At the same time, a spiritual pulse broke from the impact point between the two, spreading to the surroundings, knocking out everyone below level 15 up to 200 meters from there.
All the spies in the vicinity of Lothur's estate saw the moment of impact between those two but did not have a chance to continue their work. Each of them lost consciousness after a few fractions of a second following the collision of the spirits of those individuals.
Luckily for Lothur, this was a shock entirely of the soul, affecting only such a feature, reflecting no material damage that could damage this newly purchased house.
'Damn, this wretch is on the same level as me...' The man sent by Lothur's grandfather lamented, feeling that he could not bring this criminal to justice.
"Haha, looks like you guys got it bad today, huh?" The other sneered while remaining in dispute with such a person.
"Humph!"
"Your group will be defeated sooner or later. Tell that to that traitor, Deamon!"
"Shut up, dog!"
The two began to exchange some offense before they both sensed that someone was approaching the area, and they turned their attention to such an anomaly.
"Who is that?" One of them asked the other, not even remembering the grudge between them anymore, shocked that someone could make it to that place.
The pulse from earlier would still last a few minutes. Then anyone who approached the area and was below level 15 would naturally faint!
On the other hand, if someone of level 16 approached there, they would have to realize such a person since that would be a threat close to their level!
However, neither realized when such a person mysteriously entered Lothur's house.
Gulp!
"Could it be a Saint?" The man sent by Lothur's father questioned his opponent, feeling that it would be dangerous for both of them to stand there in front of this powerful newcomer.
The other person looked strangely at the interior of that house, wondering if any being that powerful could appear there.
'Only someone at the 4th stage could easily fool my soul senses...'
Then, the two heard the creak of one of the doors of that property, indicating that the mysterious person was approaching them.
Upon realizing this, neither of them dared to stay behind to check who this anomaly was, quickly flying away without looking back.
...
Meanwhile, inside Lothur's house...
"Why were so many people passed out in the surrounding area?" He muttered in a low voice as he opened the door to his recreation area, soon after observing the beautiful pool there.
"Hmm? What are those bodies?" Lothur wondered as he noticed some of the individuals hiding on the outskirts of his property, several visible given how they passed out.
