"You meant to say that you managed to locate the experts of Huo clan in advance and avoided their group by going in a different direction", the sixth stage expert of Shen clan raised his eyebrow towards Li Han.
Li Han nodded his head as it was the reason for which they could avoid a clash with Huo clan experts. He had nothing to hide infront of the sixth stage experts except the involvement of Zhan Chen in warning him about the Huo clan experts.
Zhan Chen commended Li Han inwardly in his mind as he chose not to expose his skills infront of their sixth stage experts. "My conjecture was not wrong about Li Han. He proves himself trustworthy by his actions", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
"You are Zhan Chen, right?", one of the sixth stage expert of Shen clan looked towards Zhan Chen. His companion also turned his head and focused his eyes on Zhan Chen.
"Greetings seniors", Zhan Chen bowed slightly towards the sixth stage experts of Shen clan and looked towards them with a calm expression on his face.
Aura of a sixth stage expert crashed towards him within a moment but Zhan Chen didn't show any changes in his expression. A look of bewilderment and approval flashed in the eyes of the Shen clan expert who was talking with Zhan Chen.
"Supreme elder reminds us that we can not underestimate those who are from Zhan clan and you prove him correct. Tell us, which power you are planning to join after participating in the Grand sect competition?", the sixth stage expert asked while looking towards Zhan Chen.
"Senior, I have yet to decide but if I am given option to choose between the three supreme sects, then I will go to the Xuantian sect", Zhan Chen replied.
The sixth stage expert nodded his head and didn't bother Zhan Chen anymore. After chatting some more time with the Shen clan experts, both of them decided to check the area where Huo clan experts faced some unknown enemies.
"Ling'er, looks like you have gained some improvements in your cultivation", Zhan Chen smiled towards Ling'er.
"It is all thanks to young master. I just need some more time and I can improve another stage in my cultivation", Ling'er replied with a happy smile on her face.
He checked both Su'er and Li Shu and all of them had visible progress in their cultivation levels. Zhan Chen nodded his head and turned to look towards Kai Min.
It was because he noticed some sneaking glances from her while he was looking at Su'er and Li Shu.
"Greetings Miss Min. How is your cultivation going?", Zhan Chen walked towards her and asked.
"Thanks young master Chen. I am already at second stage of True essence realm", Kai Min replied with a blush. She was still feeling shy around Zhan Chen despite her prolonged dual cultivation with Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen smiled towards her and walked away. He completely ignored the girl who was standing next to her.
Some complicated emotion flashed past in Li Yan's eyes. But she managed to suppress it as a look of resolve appeared in her eyes. Zhan Chen didn't have to bother about the proud beauty Li Yan. So, he ignored her despite seeing some changes in her facial expression.
It didn't take time for the sixth stage experts of Shen clan to come back. There was a grim look in both of their faces as they hurried towards the inn where Shen clan group was staying.
"It was a clash between atleast three sixth stage experts. Moreover, one of them was a mid sixth stage expert", one of them spoke to the Shen clan crowd.
"We didn't know that Huo clan had dispatched a sixth stage expert to deal with you. Your grand father will be incensed if he comes to know about it", the other sixth stage expert of Shen clan spoke to Shen Ruyan.
"Grand uncle Tong, what should we do now?", Shen Ruyan looked towards the sixth stage expert of her clan who was talking with her.
"We will leave as soon as possible. There is something fishy about Huo clan's sudden disappearance. Huo clan will surely investigate it.
Moreover, there is also the ancestoral ground of Cleansing Incense ancient sect which vanished infront of the eyes of fire marquis. This place is going to be chaotic", elder Tong of Shen clan replied to Shen Ruyan.
"What, Cleaning incense ancient sect vanished?", Shen clan experts felt baffled after hearing the news from their sixth stage expert. But Zhan Chen had a calm look on his face as he was already expecting this to happen.
-------------
A gigantic mountain range appeared Infront of the Shen clan experts after they went towards the border of the western region. The peaks seemed to be touching the clouds as the thick vegetation around it giving an ancient feeling to the surrounding onlookers.
"So huge!", Ling'er murmured after seeing the Shredded mountain range infront of her. It was not only she was feeling the surprise but any cultivator in her place would feel surprise after seeing the gigantic creation of heaven and earth infront of them.
The Shredded mountain range was a long stretch of mountains which separated the western region from the central land. Dense expanse of forests covered the entire mountain range and it provided the safe haven for the magical beasts to survive.
The addition of magical beasts with the difficult terrain of Shredded mountain range made it one of the most dangerous place of the entire Northern desert continent.
A surprised look appeared in the eyes of Zhan Chen after he scanned the nearby areas of Shredded mountain range with his soul consciousness. "It seems like someone has forcefully tore apart the long mountain range. But such things are not possible even with the power of a peak sage realm expert", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
He followed the Shen clan warriors as their group inched closer to the Shredded mountain range. "Li Han, you will be incharge of protecting our group from the back. I will lead our group from the front", elder Tong of Shen clan spoke.
Li Han nodded his head as he had no complain in the planning of a sixth stage expert. The sixth stage expert of Shen clan assigned positions to the other warriors of Shen clan. Their group proceeded ahead after everyone positioned themselves in an orderly manner.
"One of the sixth stage expert is leading from the front and other one is following in the shadow. Not a bad formation", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
He was sitting on his horned lion as he followed other Shen clan experts to the inner area of the Shredded mountain range.
