There were two prominent groups among all. It was made from disciples of Yin Yang Harmony Sect and Crimson Flame Palace who were standing on opposite sides of each other while other cultivators were standing behind them.

In these days a few more cultivators of these two sects arrived. Now both groups had around a hundred cultivators. It was a far cry from their original number of five hundred cultivators which had entered inside.

This was enough to tell everyone that someone really had targeted both groups and whoever it was had left no clue of doing so. It was terrifying to say the least.

There was a strange kind of silence among both groups. They didn't even act arrogantly in these few days. It was quite amusing to see.

There was only one activity which was known throughout the whole city right now. It was the Masked cultivator residing in the area controlled by Yin Yang Harmony Sect.

In the past few days the disciples of Yin Yang Harmony Sect had tried to find the identity of the Masked cultivator but they got nothing. No one had seen him.

There was some rumours that he had opened the gate of city by himself, it was totally impossible so no one believed this thinking some people are just making things up.

In the end they decided to ask Bai Lian, Pei Lingxi and Lian Zhi but none of them had come out of their residence for the last few days. So it was a failure on that part too.

When the disciples thought that they wouldn't get anything, the person whom they were trying to uncover came out of his residence and began roaming the city at leisure.

They immediately surrounded him and threatened him to disclose his name and remove the mask but the hidden cultivator acted as if he didn't hear them.

The masked cultivator didn't even stop when they surrounded him. They had to give him the way as it wasn't possible to stop someone forcefully in a safe zone.

They just tagged along with him to annoy him but nothing affected his leisurely walk. He kept acting like they didn't even exist near him.

Even Yun Zhihao came to threaten him but nothing worked. In the end they all left him alone as there was no point in continuing. They had already become a source of mockery for the whole city as they weren't able to intimidate even a lower realm cultivator. It really was a stain on their image.

"To think we would be looked at with eyes of mockery due to a cultivator of lower realm," one of the three disciples standing in front of the Yin Yang Harmony Sect spoke while shaking his head.

"Humph! It was all because of the safe zone and he is wearing a mask. Else he wouldn't have the guts to even look at us much less humiliate us," Yun Zhihao snorted.

The other disciple said, "You should have taken my advice. I doubt removing the mask of someone would be punished harshly. I am trying to give you genuine advice yet you discarded my previous advice of entering the house and now even this time you don't want to listen to me... sigh."

Yun Zhihao although listened to the disciple ignored him as his eyes were fixed on Bai Lian, Pei Lingxi and Lian Zhi who had just arrived and stood beside the shield covering the core city.

They had finally come out of their residence. He wanted to immediately go and ask them questions but held himself back and looked towards one of his lackeys. "Go and ask them about the masked cultivator politely."

The fact that all three were standing a little further away from their group meant that they might avoid talking to him, which would ruin his reputation further.

The disciple who was enticing Yun Zhihao snickered. "Coward."

Yun Zhihao gritted his teeth. "How about you go and ask them. It's not like only I am interested in knowing who that bastard is."

"Sigh... You two started bickering again..." The other disciple spoke while shaking his head.

Yun Zhihao and the other disciple didn't respond. Their eyes were fixed on the disciple who went to talk to Pei Lingxi and the others.

The disciple bowed. "Senior sister Pei, I wanted to talk to you about som—"

"Get lost..." Lian Zhi spoke with an annoyed expression. "Go tell your brainless master that he shouldn't disturb us."

The disciple immediately nodded. He didn't have the guts to not listen to her. Both Pei Lingxi and Lian Zhi had more connections in the sect than Yun Zhihao, so in reality even if Yun Zhihao was stronger, it didn't matter.

Yun Zhihao squinted his eyes. Lian Zhi had spoken loud enough and it was heard by not only them but also other cultivators standing nearby.

They all were surprised but began laughing while trying their best not to get noticed by Yun Zhihao while doing it.

The only guys who weren't hiding anything were the disciple beside Yun Zhihao and some of the disciples from Crimson Flame Palace who were close enough to see and listen to everything.

"Hahahahaha..." The disciple was specifically louder to annoy Yun Zhihao and it worked perfectly.

Yun Zhihao gritted his teeth. "Rong Chengyu, once we return to the sect, I will challenge you to a death battle. Accept it if you have courage."

Rong Chengyu raised his eyebrows. "Ohh... No I don't have courage for something like that, but I know someone who has. It's my brother. How about you challenge him."

Yun Zhihao was about to reply when the only disciple who was silent most of the time put a hand on his shoulder. "Stop, look who is coming..."

Yun Zhihao and Rong Chengyu raised their looks in the direction he had pointed and saw the masked cultivator coming towards them while walking leisurely.

Yun Zhihao's eyes burned with anger. He gritted his teeth. "Only if this guy was mid-stage of Soul Sea realm..."
