In the gazebo.
“They’re here already? Well, it seems like they can’t wait any longer,” Chang Yiming said, his voice filled with derision. He stood up and looked at Jiang Ming, “I’m pretty sure they didn’t come with good intentions. What should we do to them?”
“Let’s see what they’re here for first,” Jiang Ming replied as he rose to his feet. He leaped into the air and landed in the courtyard. “After all, we’re from the same sect, and we should show him some respect.”
He walked toward the guest receiving platform at a steady pace. The Dao Square had created a door with its power, and the Dao Rhythm here dissipated before this group of people arrived.
Inside the Dao Square, he was the king.
“Hah, look who’s here. Junior Brother Jiang, don’t you know any manners? Your Senior Brother is here, and not only did you not come out to welcome him, but you made him wait for so long!”
‘The person who talked was a fat young man with short stature.
He was wearing a dark gold robe that exuded a low-key luxury vibe. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, and there was an arrogant expression on his face.
“Tian Dafeng, you’re still as annoying as you were in the past. Nothing good can come out of your mouth,” Chang Yiming, who was standing beside Jiang Ming, said sarcastically.
After that, he made a bow at the man standing in the front of the group.
Jiang Ming glanced at Tian Dafeng, He knew who he was. He was the head disciple of Haoyang Peak’s First Seat, and he was in the Golden Core Realm.
They rarely talked to each other.
“Chang Yiming, how dare you!” Tian Dafeng growled, but judging from the situation, he knew that it wouldn’t do him any good if he lashed at Tian Yiming here right now. Therefore, he forcibly pushed his anger down and dusted his robe. “We have a guest today, so I’m not going to stoop down to your
level and argue with you.”
He then looked at Jiang Ming. “What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and bow to your Senior Brother.”
“Both him and I are the head disciple of our respective peaks. We’re standing on equal ground, so why should I bow to him?” Jiang Ming replied with his hands behind his back. “If you have anything to tell me, say it now.”
“How insolent!” Tian Dafeng growled coldly, “We have our Senior Brother and guest here, yet you still gave us this kind of attitude? It’s no wonder that First Seat Gu would accept you as his disciple!”
Slap!
The moment he finished speaking, he was sent flying several hundred meters away with a slap.
Blood was dripping out of his mouth, and he had lost a few of his teeth.
Light gathered in the area beside Jiang Ming, and Zi Linglong walked out of it. She gazed at Tian Dafeng and said coldly, “You’re the first person who has the nerves to talk like that to my Senior Brother and Master. I’ll spare you this time on behalf of the First Seat of Haoyang Peak. However, if you dare to
do it again next time, I’ll kill you!”
She had just finished her cultivation, and she flew into a rage when she heard what Tian Dafeng said.
Jiang Ming’s face was gloomy as well.
“That’s right. If there is next time, we’ll kill you,” Jiang Ming said.
Five Elemental Linglong’s eyes glowed, and then she nodded.
They were the master of this peak, and if those who came treated them respectfully, they would treat them the same way. However, if they had the guts to show their attitude, they would make sure they would regret what they did.
“That’s enough, Linglong, Jiang Ming,” Ximen Guanhai said, his face grim. He was their Senior Brother, and nobody dared to treat him lightly in the sect.
Now that he had returned as a Nascent Soul martial artist, he had become a lot stronger than most of the First Seats. Therefore, he expected the disciples in the sect would treat him reverently. Even if they did not do so, at the very least, they would show him some respect.
However, what had the people from Chuyang Peak done?
Not only did they not come out and welcome him, but they also had the nerves to show him attitude?
He was seriously pissed off.
“Tll repeat again. If you have anything to say, say it now. If not, please leave!” Jiang Ming said, his voice flat.
Whoosh!
‘The Human Paths Record was opened up.
Name: Ximen Guanhai.
Race: Human.
Gender: Man.
Cultivation Base: Nascent Soul Realm (Puppet of the third prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty).
Background; Head disciple of the Jiuyang Sect’s Taiyang Peal’s First Seat.
Relationship: ~78.
Innate Talent: 8 stars.
Status: He joined the Jiuyang Sect when he was a kid. The Sect Master could see his potential, so he decided to take him in as his disciple. He went out to gather more experience when he reached the Golden Core Realm. After narrowly escaping death, he arrived at Zhong Province and successfully
ascended into the Purple Mansion Realm. He came across the third prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty one year ago. After the third prince learned of his identity, he controlled his mind with his special ability and turned him into his puppet. At the cost of expending his potential, he raised his cultivation to
the Nascent Soul Realm in just one year. After that, he turned to the Jiuyang Sect to look into the sect and Zi Linglong’s secrets. By the time he arrived, he was overjoyed, and he felt it was a chance when he did not see anyone from Chuyang Peak. Hui Xin came to meet them, yet the people from Chuyang
Peak refused to show up. When Hui Xin proposed to come to Chuyang Peak to meet Zi Linglong, he was even more delighted.
Jiang Ming was speechless.
‘What a poor fellow.
In fact, he felt something was not right as well. After all, even the Sect Master had only ascended to the Primal Spirit Realm several years ago, and there were only a handful of people in the sect who had reached the Nascent Soul Realm.
However, this guy only went out for a few years, and he came back as a Nascent Soul martial artist.
Initially, he did not care about it, but he did not expect it to turn out this way.
“There is this eighteenth prince from the Great Zhou Dynasty, and now there’s another third prince? Are they all targeting Linglong? Well, I guess so. If not, there is no need for them to go to the extent of creating a puppet from a second-rate sect. It seems to me that the Great Zhou Dynasty is looking for
some trouble!”
That said, Jiang Ming was not worried about it.
One thing was that the Great Zhou Dynasty was located in Zhong Province, which was very far from them. Even if they waged war against the Jiuyang Sect, he had the confidence of crushing them as well.
Ximen Guanhai’s face was dark. Before he could say anything, Tian Dafeng returned and snarled. “How dare you slap me in the cheek, Linglong. I’m the head disciple of Haoyang Peak. I’ve already forgiven you for not greeting us when we made it all the way here, but how could you slap me on the cheek?
Do you want to rebel against the Jiuyang Sect?!”
“Keep your mouth shut. If not, you’ll need to bear the consequences yourself!” Five Elemental Linglong pointed at the Tian Dafeng and said, her voice cold and her expression bereft of emotion.
“L. 1…” Tian Dafeng wanted to say something more, but he was so startled that he couldn’t squeeze any word out of his mouth, and there was a chill running down his spine.
Although he did not believe that Zi Linglong would have the guts to kill him, what if she could?
Zi Linglong was highly admired in the sect. Even if she killed him, she wouldn’t be punished at all.
“You’re so cool!” Chang Yiming exclaimed.
The people in front of them frowned.
Ximen Guanhai looked at them gloomily as he sent a message to someone in the distance secretly.
Hui Xin had been standing beside him quietly with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he noticed something, and he frowned slightly. However, he did not say anything and pretended as if he did not notice it.
Five Elemental Linglong turned to Jiang Ming, grinning from ear to ear.
“Manners!” Jiang Ming reprimanded.
It went without saying that both of them knew what Ximen Guanhai was doing.
“Tm the head disciple of Haoyang Peak, and I represent Haoyang Peak. I came here in the hope of exchanging knowledge and skills with you, but see what you did to me! You slapped me in the face, and you didn’t take our Senior Brother seriously! Are you looking down on Haoyang Peak?!” Tian Dafeng
said as his face contorted in anger, “Not only that, but you even threatened to kill me? It’s no wonder that the people from Chuyang Peak would rebel against the sect and slaughter many people in the past. All of you are the same. You’re monsters! You’re evil and rotten to the core! I need to tell the Sect
Master about this. I want him to…”
Pfft!
Before Tian Dafeng could finish his sentence, Zi Linglong raised her hand and bifurcated him.
Ximen Guanhai was stunned. He did not expect that Zi Linglong would actually kill Tian Dafeng in front of everyone.
That being said, a faint smile crossed his face.
“Amitabha!” Huixin chanted. He lowered his head and did not say anything anymore.
“You! How dare you kill one of your own?!” Ximen Guanhai shouted, “Are you guys really going to rebel against the sect? I’m going to inform the Sect Master about this.”
With that, he leaped into the air and flew away.
“Amitabha!”
Hui Xin gave them a smile and followed after Ximen Guanhai.
The rest of the disciples looked at them with a cold grin on their faces and went away as well.
“Linglong, you… how could you kill a head disciple in front of everyone? This is going to be a lot of trouble,” Chang Yiming said as he also had realized the gravity of the situation.
‘The head disciple represented the pride of a peak. Even if they did something wrong, one should never kill them. What’s more, Tian Dafeng just talked to them in a rude manner. He did not do anything overboard yet.
“That said, something was not right with Tian Dafeng before his death. Judging from what I know about him, he wasn’t someone who would say something like that,” Chang Yiming added.
“Don’t worry. Everything will be fine,” Jiang Ming smiled, “We just want to cultivate. We want nothing to do with the people from the outside. If they don’t bother us, we won’t bother them. I’m sure the Sect Master and the First Seats would understand.”
“What if they don’t?” Five Elemental Linglong asked.
“Then we have no other choice but to show them who is the boss,” Jiang Ming replied.
Chang Yiming shook his head as he looked helplessly at the pair of people in front of him.
He did not know what to say anymore, but one thing he knew was that he would always stand by their side.
“Linglong, I’m sure this matter will cause some trouble for us. I guess you should take this opportunity to clean up those unrelated people in the sect,” Jiang Ming said when he remembered Chuyang Peak. “Yue Cheng and the others are the remnant forces of the Yinmo Sect. I’ll leave them in your hands.”
“You know about that, Senior Brother?” Linglong exclaimed.
“Of course, I know about it. Now that the Yinmo Sect is gone, there’s no use of keeping them.”
“Okay!” Five Elemental Linglong said. Since Jiang Ming had known about it for a long time, she figured that he was keeping Yue Cheng to learn about the movement of the Yinmo Sect.
However, there was one person who was oblivious to the entire thing. Chang Yiming’s face tured pale when he heard their conversation, and he said, “What?! Zhiyang Sect’s First Seat is from the Yinmo Sect? How is that possible?!”
Jiang Ming chuckled, but he did not say anything. He looked in the direction where Ximen Guanhai was heading and lifted his arm..
