Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

For the next few days, the team went of searching in the surrounding areas to find out any clues, even if they didn't find any, they left some of Sam's puppets there to keep the surveillance.

They marked every place that even has five percent chance of being or be a lead to the hidden location of the sect, but there was no result whatsoever.

The activity of the sect seemed extremely mellow and stale to have any clues.

After a week of fruitless efforts, Sam knew that he needs to do something big and cause some extreme chaos to see any possibility of finding the location.

He thought of something and assembled the team.

"Find a hidden location of our own in the surroundings and assemble in the restaurant in front of the external branch in two days."

He only gave this one instruction and left the place. The team went out and searched for a hidden location, where they could stay temporarily.

After all, since they don't need any resources and they don't have to plan for development, they could find any place for their hiding.

The only requirement Sam has is that the place should be the least likely suspect if someone were to try and search for them.

The team roamed around many places in the past week, so they did have some ideas.

They worked for the next two days and all of them assembled in the restaurant in front of the external branch of the sect.

The group is pretty eye catching with their cultivation levels and presence of Sam in the middle of them is even more eye catching as he is the weakest but people are catering to him.

When the guards and some attendants of the external branch saw this large group, they couldn't help but feel a bit vigilant, because these people came to the sect and placed some missions a few days ago and at that time, they acted as if they don't know each other, all of a sudden they came to together.

This made them look suspicious.

They immediately went to report just in case.

The group picked a location and right before the meeting is over, Sam said.

"Night Ghost and go and look for the lowest level worker in the external sect that takes the missions and place a mission according to these requirements.

As soon as you do that and pay the advance, don't even wait for a single second, even if they want to talk to you just casually and even if the elders want to chat with you on the account of the previous mission, make an excuse and act dramatic, but either way you should be out of there no matter what happens. We will be waiting for you outside."

With that, Night Ghost left and Sam along with his team came out of the restaurant a minute later.

They waited for ten minutes.

Night Ghost finished the task and came out, right before he was about to join the team, an attendant came running and said.

"Sir, the elder would like to speak with you. If you don't mind can you wait for a few minutes inside."

"I will come, but I need to give something to my friends."

With that Night Ghost came to the group, as attendant watched, them all of a sudden, the group started running towards the city gate.

The attendant was stunned and didn't know what to do, and finally after he came out of the initial shock, he ran into the external branch and talked to the elder who gave the task to him.

The elders came out and started chasing the group, but the group soon made their way out of the city and ran out towards a specific location. The elder didn't want to make the chase obvious at the start, but as the group moved faster and faster, he couldn't help but do it.

They went to the nearest mountain region which has a lot of twists and turns and disappeared.

The elder was disappointed.

He didn't expect the other party to be this fast. He went back and reported everything to the deacon.

"Why did you guys even tail them? Did they do anything suspicious other than placing some missions separately?"

"One of our members saw the weakest of that group following them when we are doing a mission. It was a bit suspicious at that time and after that mission one of our people have an ice golem marked with a spiritual imprint. We are already trying to secretly investigate the matter, but the main branch members whose golem was marked, didn't come into contact with any other cultivator while he was in presence of the golem.

At first he ignored this person, because he is weak, but now that they are all together, we couldn't help but suspect them."

The deacon thought for a moment and asked.

"What did that person do before they left? You said he came to place a mission. What mission did he place?"

The attendant immediately ran and brought back the book with all the mission registrations, when the deacon saw the mission registration, he was shocked.

There night ghost registered his own name and as for the task of the mission, it is for finding a blade and when the deacon saw it, he couldn't even control his aura as it raged wildly.

'The Frost Serpent Fang sculptor blade.'

That is the name of the blade the Night ghost wanted.

"Use all the man power we have, even the external contacts and mercenaries, make sure that you guys search for the group. Send me a report every hour, even the tiniest possibility and the clue shouldn't be ignored."

The deacon gave the orders and went back into his room. He took out a jade token and small object that looked like a pen.

He carved the whole matter on the jade, injected his spiritual energy into it.

The carvings on the jade token disappeared.

Meanwhile, somewhere hidden, the core region of the Tundra Sect.

An old man is sculpting an ice statue carefully. The statue seemed to be of a large snake battling with a frost dragon.

A jade token similar to the one the deacon used was on the table on the corner of the room and it started glowing.

He stopped the sculpting process and walked there to see it, when he read the message, he couldn't help but frown, the tranquil expression he had while sculpting was completely gone.

He tapped the jade token with the sculpting blade he has in his hands and the message disappeared. He carved something with the blade and sent a message back to the External branch, saying that he would take care of it.

He then immediately called for the attendant who is waiting outside.

"Call for the elders immediately, and the core disciples too."

In ten minutes everyone he asked for came in and stood in attention.

"Someone who is a late stage transcendent cultivator of Astral Plane came to the external branch today and left a mission.

He asked us to search for the Frost Serpent fang sculptor blade."

Everyone was stunned and looked at him.

"You heard me right. Someone is after our sect's heirloom. From the report of the deacon, he has a team of people and this team left missions with us in the past week. Some of our core disciples and elders went to finish these missions."

He spoke and then recited all the missions that team took and the core disciples and the elders who performed these missions for the team came forward.

"You all came into contact with these people. I want you to give a brief description of their cultivation level, their behavior and anything that could help us find what their motives are."

The group tried to give some clues that might help, but they didn't help much.

The sect leader shook his head and said.

"It is no use. From the report, they escaped and disappeared into the mountain region. From what I could guess, this is a method to lure us to them.

But even if it is a lure, we need to find them.

I will be making a move personally, since they have a late stage cultivator. Only people who are in Astral Plane transcendence and peak of Pre-transcendence will be making a move with me.

We are going to search for the clues, meanwhile, the rest of you study the missions they gave us and see if you can find any clues through them."

He gave out the orders and everyone prepared.

The next day, around thirty people appeared in the backyard of the external branch by the small lake that was present.

The deacon is already waiting for them to show up. He greeted them and took them in, to explain the details and gave the portraits of the team members.

After getting the details, they moved and went to the mountain region to start the search.
