From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Warm blood dripped down Lee Xiao’s arm.

His shoulder had a dagger plunged into it by the leader of the disciples.

"Argh."

The pain struck him, and he cried out in pain.

Looking at how the others were fighting valiantly with the Dark Lotus disciples, Lee Xiao gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

He must not disappoint them.

He held onto the wrist of the leader, glanced over at Tai Lan, who was at his side, and shouted, "Finish him off."

Tai Lan’s sword obliged, and it stabbed at the leader’s eyes.

Lee Xiao felt his shoulder being tugged as the leader tried to pull out the dagger.

He dropped his sword and used both of his hands to hold onto the leader’s wrist.

The leader of the disciples couldn’t get away, and Tai Lan’s sword came right up into his right eye.

"Argh."

It was the leader’s turn to cry out in pain.

Tai Lan twisted and stirred with his sword, causing more pain to the leader.

The blood curse that covered the leader turned back into liquid and dripped onto the ground.

Now the body of the leader was exposed.

Lee Xiao thrust his sword at it.

Splatter.

Pieces of cloth, flesh, and blood splattered onto the ground.

The twirling wind strike tore through the leader’s body this time.

Leaving behind a mangled mass of flesh, blood, and fractured bones.

The next moment, the leader loosened his grip on the dagger and dropped to his knees.

Lee Xiao clenched his fist victoriously and shouted, "No one shall pass this line."

He picked up his sword and drew a line on the ground.

The pain in his shoulder didn’t even register as he knew this was his time to shine.

Disciples came at him with their knives, but they were easily taken care of by his twirling wind strike.

He had blood all over his face and looked menacing, making the disciples think twice.

Tai Lan saw the wound still dripping, and he nudged Lee Xiao.

"Take your pill. If not, Lin Fan might not be pleased, and I would have to pay him my buns."

What he said reminded Lee Xiao of what Lin Fan did earlier when he didn’t want to accept his pills.

So, he took out a bottle of Blood and Qi Restoration Pill and swallowed one.

A gentle warm feeling engulfed his body immediately.

His wound slowly closed, and the bleeding stopped.

Lin Fan, Ho Ming, and Hun Yen Kun were done with the other disciples.

All around them were the bodies of the Dark Lotus Sect’s disciples piling up into a small mound.

Lin Fan scanned around for any more survivors and couldn’t see any. Explore new worlds at freewebnovel

To make sure, he used his Resonant Echo to listen for anyone escaping.

There weren’t any.

He took a pill to recover and glanced over at Hun Yen Kun.

Hun Yen Kun nodded and took out the golden feather again.

Time was of essence, and they must move on to the next objective.

"Well done." Lin Fan saw what Lee Xiao did and praised him for his valiant fight.

"Thanks, but it’s my duty after all," Lee Xiao glanced at Lin Fan with confidence and said.

Lin Fan was impressed with Lee Xiao.

Lee Xiao had come a long way from wanting to get him out of the team to now being in awe and trying his best.

…

Tai Mountains.

Knock.

Li Rong was on her bed when she felt a presence knocking on the door.

Her eyes opened and she sat up.

Creak.

With a wave of her hand, the door creaked open, but there was no one outside.

A shadow on the ground crept into her room.

It was a ghost shadow from the elder.

The shadow bowed and injected the message from the elder into Li Rong’s mind.

Her brows locked together as she heard the message from the elder.

These Qing Feng Sect finally had the courage to come and have a showdown, she thought.

She dismissed the shadow with a wave of her hand after it was done.

The shadow crept back into the darkness.

Li Rong thought for a moment about a counter plan.

When she finally thought of one, she snapped her fingers, and her maids came scurrying into her room.

They helped her to get dressed, and she ordered one of them to gather everyone.

The maid helping her stepped back after putting on her silk coat.

Looking into the mirror, she wasn’t too satisfied.

Li Rong adjusted the cloth barely containing her breast, and she was done.

The maid shivered in fear when she saw what Li Rong did.

Afraid that she would be dragged out to be killed.

Lucky for her, Li Rong had much more urgent matters to handle.

The next moment, Li Rong went to the usual briefing room.

"What’s the fuss at this hour?" Eleventh Dog rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself.

Tenth Rooster shook his head and said, "There must be urgent matters from the Lady Saint."

Growl.

Eleventh Dog growled like a dog and said, "I’m not a rooster used to crowing before dawn like you."

The arm of the chair turned into pieces as the Tenth Rooster clenched his claw-like hand.

"Come at me if you dare." Eleventh Dog stood up, showed his sharp teeth, and growled.

"What are you doing?" Li Rong’s voice erupted in the air as she entered.

She squinted at Eleventh Dog, and he quickly plopped back down onto his seat.

Her eyes scanned the Astrology Guards and elders seated.

After making sure they behaved, she started to speak.

"The Qing Feng Sect is destroying our forts built to ambush them at the mountain’s sole route of entrance as I speak.

"The Astrology Guards go and stop them.

"Don’t you dare come back if you fail this time.

"Elders get ready to lead the disciples to ambush the Qing Feng Sect disciples.

"This time we shall make sure they would be surprised."

The Astrology Guards and elders stood up, clasped their hands, and said, "Yes, my Lady Saint. We will get to it now."

In a moment, they left the briefing room, and Li Rong looked out the window.

The sky was dark with clouds moving fast with the wind howling.
