Looking at the girl's righteousness everyone believed her, those that came were not stupid, they had had some suspicion about the General's Manor's doings but didn't have the time nor power to pry further.

When that was said a mysterious force blew pass Xia Wen Ya and Xia Hen Chun removing their veils, with everyone's eyes on them and getting exposed for the crimes they blanked out, by the time that they realized that they had been seen, it was already too late.

The crowd gasped in terror, their appearances were absolutely mortifying.

"ARGH!!!! DON'T LOOK!" The two of them desperately tried to cover their face with their hands but to no avail.

At that moment, a powerful force surged into the room.

"Father!" Xia Li cried out, when things were taking a bad turn he had instructed the servants to inform the Old General.

"How dare you try to harm General's Manor!" The Old General bellowed aloud, carrying along his aura of a High Stage Martial Expert, the other guests all had their backs soaked in cold sweat.

He was furious after hearing the dirty side of General's Manor being exposed, he didn't participate in them but nor did he oppose them either, as the saying goes 'to keep one eye open and to keep one eye closed', turning a blind eye.

"It's called retribution! General's Manor's actions will lead themselves to their own demise"

"You reap what you sow!"

The Old General charged at her but how could a puny little Martial Expert harm her, the Old General was slammed against the wall.

Zi Hua threw a pill into each of their mouths, not sparing anyone, there wasn't a single person from General's Manor with the slightest moral integrity. Of course, not sparing Xia Wen Ya and her husband, the man dared to neglect his own son, Xing Wu Xun, until the child ended up in such a bad scenario, if she had not arrived in time...

"What did you feed us?!"

After that was said they could feel indescribable pain from their organs and their skin was turning a horrible color. Their cultivation was completely destroyed and...

Seeing those people turn into a pool of blood sent shivers down the audiences' spines, they all fear the strong and not wanting to experience the same fate no one voiced out a sound.

Seeing this the four xiao yatou [1] in Heaven-defying artifact nodded calmly, this was more like their master's way of doing things, executing the final blow without giving the opponent to have time to get a good grasp of the situation.

She hated these people to the core, Xia Fei Yan hadn't harmed them and was nothing but a naive child yet they used such cruel methods to deal with her and they had done so many bad deeds, no matter what world, these kind of people still seem to exist. In reality, her and Xia Fei Yan's situations are pretty similar except that Zi Hua's was better.

Zi Hua could've left them to suffer the humiliation but she can't allow her enemies to survive and have a chance for revenge, she has to avenge her master, adding opponents for herself isn't a very good idea.

"My apologies, the banquet is over, Light Phantom Hall will be closed for a while" Those from the Light Phantom Sect all left the room leaving the stupefied mob in shivers as they stared at the pool of blood.

Back in the guest room they had all gathered there awaiting their Sect leader.

Zi Hua changed back into her usual hanfu and appearance then headed to the guest room.

"Master"

"En. I'm sorry we didn't have a proper party, to make up for it I've already had people prepare the real banquet back at the base!" Zi Hua gave a helpless smile, she was feeling quite guilty for ruining their banquet but her revenge had to be done.

Zi Hua teleported all of them back to Wan Shou Mountain, it was an outdoor party, the place was lit by multi-colored lanterns.

Delicacies were lined up on the table and all the members stood there to welcome the new recruits.

"Welcome to Light Phantom Sect!" During the party everyone crowded around them and warmly welcomed the new recruits, Zi Hua stood at the side and watched with a gentle smile.

Seeing the new members getting into the cheerful atmosphere, Zi Hua left quietly for everyone to befriend each other.

After watching the show, the three spirit beasts and Xiao Shen had fallen asleep with a bunch of popcorn scattered around them, when they wake up she'll make them manually clean the mess up.

Zi Hua went into the hot spring in her home within the pagoda, the hot water soothed her tiredness and she could finally relax, however it was only momentary, there was still the third son and eldest daughter to deal with but from what her subordinates had gathered they had gone to Moonlight Continent, that sh*t was probably from some major organization too for him to be able to get his hands on her master's Immortal Flame fragment map.

Thinking about that pile of sh*t, she realized that she had completely forgotten about him, but sh*t like that didn't deserve her attention.

Oh well, she'll pay a visit tomorrow.

She'll also have to deal with Xing Wu Xun's problem, things would start piling up if she does not sort them out. So stressful, it feels like when you have like 5 tests consecutively and you don't know which one to revise for so you don't revise for a single one and is just like f*ck it, it'll work out. Somehow. (Is this only me?)

As she thought about them all and her future plans, she drifted off to sleep.
