88 Clown.

Elder Huang looked at the bald man's fierce eyes and hesitated to show himself.

The bald man frowned, "What the hell is this time of reaction!? where are disciplinary people!?"

Elder Huang Finally hardened his face and stepped up. The bald man and the others turned their attention to him.

Used to ordering and oppressing, Elder Huang feltered when the pressure of a venerable came over him.

He tried to open his mouth when another voice resounded to everyone. The words were spoken fast, as if afraid.

"I"m Sorry! Sir Venerable, this junior is from the discipline division but was not able to talk due to sir's pressure. I ask for seniors forgiveness."

Aurelio spoke pointing at the bowing and trembling Xunhue beside him. His forehead was covered in sweat.

"A level two representing the Discipline division? what nonsense is this!?" The man asked without taking off his overflowing pressure.

Xunhue trembled even more and looked pleadingly at Aurelio.

"My lord, the now ex Sect leader, judged that it was not necessary to have such division, only now that we have an exceptional disciple that it was given the authority of leadership over to her to build it." He spoke through gasps trying to not stammer.

"Exceptional disciple?" The man asked, and the other five behind him paid attention for the first time.

Aurelio saw their reactions and relaxed, he could feel the bothered stares of the other elders, but he didn't care, it was his chance for overturning his situation. He looked at Xunhue form the corner of his eyes and a malicious gleam flashed.

"My lord, Zhi Rui is the daughter f the general of this empire, she recently entered our sect because of her publicity with the people. But somehow she evolved from nothing to level one in a day, and not long after, she evolved to level two. She did it in a dangerous situation where demonic cultivators attacked her expedition, and like a miracle, she defeated two of them.

As the words left his mouth elder Huang and the others frowned, he spoke deliberately as if Zhi Rui's circumstances where dubious. and her every move was shady.

He continued on.

"For the reward, she was entrusted with the duty of leading theDiscipline division."

The bald man looked intensely at Aurelio, but his mind kept thinking of the people behind him. They were already looking for useful allies for their Young masters. His duty was to oversee the infighting and guarantee a reasonably fair competition

But the discipline Division is a too big piece of meat, whoever gets it, will have authority over the sect without equal.

He frowned.

Aurelio saw nobody stopping and sighed loudly. "Though she gained it as her reward, she never leaves her cave, and the only people that control order is this disciple by my side and her group."

The bald man turned to Xunhue "You're one of her subordinates? what you think of her?"

Xunhue hesitated, the soul bound oath remained. And she cannot undermine Zhi Rui.Without hesitation, she straightened her back and spoke. "Commander Zhi Rui is an extremely competent and capable person! I fought alongside her against the demonic cultivators and I can say with a tranquil conscience that Zhi Rui is one of the most competent people I have ever met!"

Aurelio's eyes twitched but he understood the girl's problems. When he approached her with the issue of taking Zhi Rui down. She hinted subtly that she can't directly act against Zhi Rui. Aurelio assumed they had some kind of deal or oath.

The bald man looked at Xunhue's eyes. He felt her will to act. "You've been working while she stayed on her cave, what about the others on the division?"

Xunhue trembled a little and spoke, "Zhi Rui ordered Zhun Xuyin, a level three disciple to train two other completely new disciples."

The bald man pondered slowly. Zhi Rui was too great of talent if what they say is true. Regardless of why's and how's. And she already has a good opinion of the people and some authority.If anyone of the Dao protector behind him gets his hands on her they'll have too much of a big start. He frowned.

He looked at Xunhe's full of energy eyes and decided.

He straightened his back and spoke for everybody to hear.

"If she doesn't appreciate the rewards, it's better for her to relinquish from it. Start a search into her background, andlook for a suspicious way of cultivation."

'This way, the discipline division will be weak with only this girl and a couple of level two kids, even if they were acquired, they'll have to be developed and the competitors wouldn't let it flourish easily. keeping the external factor of the competition even.' The bald man thought to himself.

Elder Huang who remained silent until now stuck out like a sore thumb all the people knew he was the one supervising Zhi Rui, Whatever is said about her completely affects him yet he remained like a statue throughout the whole talk.

"Call the responsible elder and remove this Zhi Rui from leadership, that kind of status is for people who actually want to work."The man said imposingly.

Aurelio grinned inside, he barely concealed his smirk when he turned to Elder Huang with an awkward expression."Elder Huang, you're her supervisor. What do you think?"

Elder Huang didn't speak. But the red on his face answered any curiosity.

The bald man looked at him in the eye, "So, do you have an opinion?"

Looking like someone who just swallowed a fly Elder Huang spoke with a hoarse voice "No, sir. I think the same, someone who did not work shouldn't be in a relevant status." the words left his mouth through clenched teeth, being humiliated in this manner is a first in a long time.

The bald man scoffed at the spineless man, "If you thought like that then you should've acted before."

Elder Huang's face contorted in a vermilion color. But he swallowed it all.

The bald man turned to Aurelio and Xunhue "You're now responsible for the Discipline division. Congratulations."

Xunhue's eyes were moist, She thought that with her oath, she wouldn't be able to overcome Zhi Rui but with Aurelio acting as the third party indirectly putting her above Zhi Rui did not interfere with the oath.

Aurelio trembled inside, He laughed maniacally internally, so much that his lips did not stop twitching. 'Zhi Rui you slut! You'll see how it feels!'

Zhun Xuyin watched from afar her eyes cold and quiet, with a river of rage underneath. A breeze passed beside her and she jumped to the side startled, but as her eyes rested on the figure, Her eyes turned round with surprise.

Xunhue and Aurelio bowed thanking nonstop. Annoyed, the bald man frowned and waved his hands. "Enough, just get this over with, take the girl off that cave and start the investigation." He spoke brusquely

"That won't be necessary! If words can be said and taken away at will, ThenI, Zhi Rui will go out on my own will" Zhi Rui spoke sternly.

Zhi Rui's domineering tone thundered through the ears of the people present. They all looked up. Zih Rui stared down with her emerald abyss from midair. The light shone on her back turning her front visage especially somber. The despise in her tone was a clear as day, and her eye aimed directly at the venerable bald man.

Looking form above without any greetings or politeness Zhi Rui spoke.

"If any bald monkey can come and force people to dance to his clownish

rhythm, Than my pride, won't allow myself to stay on this place." Her voice filled with loathing.

The inner elders were struck speechless, the disciples trembled. Xun Lee watching from the sidelines felt her blood rushing like strong rivers through her veins.

Zhun Xuying felt her excitement rise and an animalistic instinct came over her,she felt dry and hot. Her inner thighs were humid and hot. her eyes fixated on Zhi Rui's floating straight back.
