Three days passed.

Sam still stayed inside the cave residence. He already deployed the surveillance like he always did and he went through all the information he got from the Black Ghosts.

Paras, Vidyut and Tamas didn't come back yet and Sam didn't want them to come back yet anyway. The plan is to join them later when the contract between Demon-Soul and the Sects was broken off.

In these three days, Sam got a clear understanding of the Five Great sects.

As the name implied, they have five branches, each being its individual sects. Even though they are one big joint organization, most of the time they operate individually.

Each sect is named after the five elements and it was said that the founders of the five sects are users of five different elements.

The Fire Sect, Water Sect, Metal Sect, Wood Sect and the Earth Sect.

At the time of the foundation, they only took in the people with those respective elements in which limited their entry even though they have so many people.

But as the sects were passed from generation to generation and they expanded a lot, they diversified. They kept the names as it is, but they started taking other elemental users in and soon only a few rules from the original foundational members remained.

Every sect could only select the person who has the same element as the sect's name as the leader.

They cannot appoint another elemental user to be the leader of the sect. The five sects are not to be separated and they should stay as one organization no matter how much they expand. And no matter how big one branch got, they should not try to swallow another branch and no other branch should eye for what one branch might obtain or acquire through their efforts.

When one branch gets into trouble for something, all the other branches should help them unconditionally, whether it is through providing manpower or finances.

There are some more rules which Sam didn't care much about.

But there is one interesting thing. Within the inner city there is one place where all the five branches members gather.

They have the common library, some common administrative and educational departments established there. For example, there is a formation department which is responsible for teaching formations for the young disciples and people from all five branches can learn from that.

There is a Mission hall, from where the branches post the missions that could be done by other branch disciples too.

It also has the common arena where the common tournaments for all the branches are conducted and there is this Grand Hall where all the meetings between branch leaders happen.

Sam is interested in this place because he felt that a place that gathers all the top dogs occasionally might come in handy when he is trying to deal with them.

He doesn't have to go through the effort of dealing with them.

But there is no detailed layout in the information from the Black Ghosts as they didn't see it as too important.

Sam could only wait for Jack and the Demon Soul to return to ask them about it.

While Sam is planning and creating a hit list so that they could take down people in that particular order, his partners in crime are working.

Currently, the Demon Soul is standing in the Grand Hall as the five Sect leaders, the Grand Elders, the elders and even some core disciples are in front of him.

All of them gathered together.

One of the members of the common administrative area took the spatial rings from the five sect leaders and walked to the Demon Soul as he handed them over with a slight bow.

The Demon Soul checked the contents of all the rings and smiled.

"This is not bad. I think this covers all of it. You guys might have felt quite a pinch."

He said with a smile.

At this moment, the five sect leaders stood up and the one in the middle who is the leader of the Fire Sect spoke.

"Guardian Demon Soul, we are thankful and will be eternally grateful for what you have done for our sect. Because of the contract you made with the sect and your character that values that contract, you were trapped with us all this while.

And now that the Five great sects have reached the heights that made us face few dangers, you do not have to feel trapped by protecting us anymore.

We hope that you would take your leave and see much bigger world waiting for you."

Demon Soul's smile widened as he said.

"So, you boys grew up and wants to throw this old man out of this place?"

The sect leaders just smiled and didn't say anything.

The Demon soul thought for a long while and said.

"Okay then. I will take my leave. This place has become boring anyway. There is no adventure left here. It is too bland for my taste."

With that, he turned around and started walking.

"Guardian, before you leave the realm, we would like to hold a banquet this afternoon. The arrangements are already done. I hope you will visit along with your disciple and his friends."

"My disciple and his friends too? You are being way too generous all of a sudden." Demon Soul said with a smile.

"We insist. Please let us show our gratitude. Anyway, two exciting young men are not a burden for us."

"Okay, we will come by afternoon."

With that he left and took out a communication token.

"Jack, I want to talk to you about something, what are you doing now?"

"I am the middle of something with my friends. I will be there in fifteen minutes."

"Okay. I will be waiting."

With that Demon Soul cut the communication off.

Meanwhile.

Jack, Philip and Watt are currently in a bar. They are seating at a small round table while a six people are surrounding them and a lot of people are looking at them.

The six people are the young masters of the Five great sects. They belong to two sects in particular. The Water Sect and the Earth Sect and they are direct descendants of some of the founding and first generation members.

If everything goes right, these fellows would end up being the Elders and Grand elders of their sects.

And right now, all they want is to kill the trio in front of them.

"What? Did you call your teacher for you help? Want to go and cry in his arms and ask him to save you?"

One of the young masters said as he got ready to start the fight.

Jack looked at him like he was an idiot and said.

"Did you put someone's dick in your ears? Didn't you hear what I was talking with him?"

The young master was embarrassed and lunged forward.

Watt waved his hand and the wind pushed the guy from behind making him slip, Philip who is sitting raised his head and dropped an ax kick on that guys head slamming him into the table and then into the wooden floor all while without standing up.

But he didn't stop there, flames erupted from his leg as he burned the hair off of the guy's head, making him bald.

The other young masters were stunned and lunged forward to attack.

Jack took out his sword as he sliced upwards the young master in the front has his cloths cut off as they dropped down.

Watt threw a wind blade at another guy, who used an earthen wall to block the attack, but he is still a tad bit slower as the wind blade just sliced off on that guy's head and cut the upper layer of the scalp clean.

The trio stood up and started beating the crap out of them. They didn't use any fancy technique and made it into an old fashioned fist fight while they shaved their heads off with wind blades and sword strikes and cut their clothes off too.

They fainted after that and the trio left.

The sight they left behind is embarrassing to say the least.

This is the third time they did something like this in the past three days.

They pissed the young masters who are on the same level as them as much as they could and beat the crap out of everyone that came at them.

They left these embarrassing scenes everywhere they went and did most of it in the Outer City which made the citizens almost shit in their pants.

After all, who bullies the young masters of the sect right in their home ground? They didn't expect to see someone with such big balls roaming around.

Some of them recognized who Jack is and this made the situation that much gossip-worthy.

Everyone started talking and by now the news already spread to the sect elders and administrators. But they didn't dare react because the sect leaders are trying to cut ties with the guardian as smoothly and openly as possible.

But now that the ties are cut, it is time for them to react.
