Cyrus kept an eye on the group, who seemed to be moving in Rita and Hilda's direction. However, after moving two hundred meters in the same direction, they make a turn toward the slum district.
They had no idea they had just escaped a calamity by luck.
However, Cyrus didn't leave them alone before they were completely out of his spell's perimeter. But before he could turn back, he sensed another breach from the northwest side, and with a frown, he moved toward that direction.
But this time, it wasn't human, but a jackal, 'Well, you should be our breakfast then.'
Without hesitation, Cyrus conjured a fiery Qi arrow and shot it toward the jackal's heart mercilessly, killing the animal within an instant.

'Well, I can't get SP from mortals anymore, nor LXP without the lust sword.' Cyrus smiled wryly before he moved toward Jackal's corpse.
However, when he was only a meter away from the corpse, Cyrus sensed incoming danger, and he instantly took a sidestep.
'Swish…'
The very next moment thereafter, an ice arrow was flashed past Cyrus's position, where he was just standing a moment ago, and it landed on the ground after missing its target.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'A magic archer outside my perimeter range?' Cyrus's eyes turned cold as he looked in the direction from where the arrow had come before they shimmered in red light.
Thereby, his lips curled up into a mocking smile, 'You want to retreat after taking a shot at me? Do you think you can?'
Cyrus instantly went in pursuit as he could see the other party's magic aura with his Spiritual Vision Spell.
The attacker seemed to have already detected that he was discovered as he started to move even faster, and he shot some more ice arrows to slow Cyrus down.
But Cyrus was fearless as he formed a shield around himself, and all those arrows got reflected by it while he used a movement spell of wind element to increase his speed even more.
The distance was instantly erased by a large margin between them.
The other party was now really panicking, as a crisp voice of a woman rang, "Friend, it was a misunderstanding, stop pursuing me!"
"Is that so? Then why don't you try stopping and then explain." Cyrus eerily remarked.
At this moment, fiery Qi arrows started to manifest over Cyrus's head, and he shot them in the attack's direction without any hesitation.
"YOU!" The attacker was terrified as she sensed the incoming danger, and she was horrified when she saw over fifty fire arrows coming her way.
She tried to dodge them by getting out of the way of their trajectory, but to her disbelief, those arrows seemed to have a mind of their own as they instantly moved after her.
Her speed was simply too slow as before long, those arrows reached her, and she was as helpless as a chicken, and before she knew it, all those arrows were already pierce thought all over her body. Not a single arrow was missed.

Cyrus remained unfazed by the notification as she landed right beside the mingled corpse of the woman.
It was a mature woman in her late thirties wearing gear and a cloak while she held a small red bow in her hand, but there weren't any arrows on her, and she was only carrying a small bag around her waist.
Cyrus looked at the woman's dead face, which was filled with disbelief and terror. He scoffed, "You should've thought before trying to kill someone in cold blood. They can kill you back."
Cyrus then picked up the bow before he threw it away like trash, "Only a yellow-grade magic item."
He then checked her bag, and except for some clothes, he only found three small vials which caught his interest. He opened their lids and smelled them before he frowned with disgust.
'A crudely created yellow-grade healing elixir. Well, it's better than nothing, I guess. I might be able to re-refine it into bronze grade with my yang fire.' Cyrus thought before he put them in his pocket.
Lastly, he found a folded paper in her bag pocket, and when he opened it, his eyes lit up when he saw it was a map!
He then gazed at the corpse. He could guess she was probably some bandit who wanted to rob him by killing him or either wound him gravely. She probably found him by chance and immediately acted against him.
That was why he noticed her too late.
"Hmph." Cyrus sneered coldly before he threw a fireball at the corpse and then left the area
When he returned to the campsite, the sky was completely bright, and the girls were also done with their baths. They both looked ravishing after taking a bath in that pool created by Cyrus.
Especially, Rita looked like a fully mature peace in her peace color robes with deep cleavage, which exhibited her hourglass figure perfectly.
While Hilda was still wearing her mask but her buxom figure was fully emitting its deadly charm in her new sleeveless white dress with a black flower pattern.
"Alright, let's leave after eating our breakfast. I think more and more people are coming in this way, and they will pass through this way." Cyrus stated as he started to fire.
"Do you encounter someone?" Rita curiously asked as she thought about Cyrus's abrupt departure from the bath.
Cyrus didn't hide it and nodded, "Yes, I discovered a small group, but they turned out to be not the problem. The problem was someone else, and I took care of it and even got ourselves something useful."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe chuckled before he took out the map found in the woman's bag as well as three small vials filled with brown liquid.
"There is a city forty kilometers in the west from our current location. As for these vials, keep them. They might come in handy." Cyrus coolly said as he handed over the map and the three vials to Hilda since she had a space ring.
Besides, he had already remembered the entire map, which only covered the third-grade cities in the outer region of the Cloudless country.
The city they were headed to was also a third-grade city named Albert City.
"So, you kill someone?" Hilda couldn't help but ask while taking those things from Cyrus's hand.
"Do you have any problem with that?" Cyrus asked smilingly.
Hilda shook her head and explained, "No. I was just curious if you encounter someone powerful."
She would be a hypocrite if she said she cared about human lives since she wasn't a saint herself. She was just worried that Cyrus might've killed someone from the ten overseer clans, and it might cause trouble for Cyrus.
"No, just some second-class sorceress who was courting death. I just complete her wish." Cyrus coolly replied as he started roasting the jackal.
Rita didn't appear much surprised by Cyrus's nonchalant attitude after killing someone as she giggled softly, "You'll get used to it. If I were you, I would be worried about anyone who stands in Cyrus's way."
Hilda understood what Rita was implying, so she nodded and didn't care about this small incident anymore as she was now more concerned about getting rid of the mask over her face.
She asked, "Lord Cyrus, should I continue with my cultivation or stop until this mask is taken off?"
After she had chatted with Rita about cultivation, she was quite shocked that Rita was already moving fast toward the high stage of the foundation-building realm. She didn't want to remain stuck in the first realm and lose to Rita, especially with her deity talent.
Cyrus replied, "You can continue to cultivate like before. There's no need to be concerned about the mask. Although you would be 70% or even 80% slower without it, you have to bear with it before I can access my sword. Other than that, it's not dangerous to your life."
Hilda felt more at ease before she thought of something else as a hesitant look appeared in her eyes, which Cyrus instantly noticed, "Speak freely."
Hilda took a deep breath before she looked at Rita, who gave her an encouraging wink, "I-I want to learn spells from Senior Sister Rita!"
Cyrus gave Rita a side eye which made her stick her tongue out playfully, which only made him smile in exasperation, "I don't know what she told you, but she's not qualified to teach you. Especially since you guys practice in different elements. I'm sure she probably wanted to show off."
Rita pursed her lips and retorted with a pout, "No, I'm not!"
"Heh." Cyrus merely snickered, "I'll teach you myself, just like last night. Don't rush things. Focus on consolidating your cultivation first. We'll start after we enter that city!"
