Chapter 247: Be Righteous

"That child, how does she know what happened to our sect leader?" the elders were surprised. 

A man suddenly turned towards him. "Uh… previous sect leader," the elder corrected himself.

"This… the culprit must be hidden here. That child heard about our previous sect leader from him," the other elder said. 

"Elders, maybe we should return. As we said, he should have some teleportation device. Besides, it was master in the wrong that time," Famir who was standing behind them spoke. 

Ning was a little surprised to see him there, and even more surprised to see him take his side. 'That sect is not fully unredeemable,' he thought. 

"Tsk. You are a coward, Faran. We made the right choice to simply make you a small-time elder. If we gave you any other position, you would have taken the sect to the dust," a person at the front spoke. 

"Yes, you are correct, sect leader," other elders backed him up. The new sect leader got a proud face as they all called him by what he was now. 

"Jan, go and get that girl," he said. 

"Yes master," Jan walked forward to get Anya. 

"Uhh… what should I do?" Anya got a little flustered. She had never been in this situation before. 

"Calm down and listen to me closely," he said. "Are you okay with seeing blood?" he asked. 

"Of course," she answered. She was a doctor; standing at the sight of blood was a job requisite. 

"How about death?" he asked. 

"I… am used to seeing it," Anya said with a somber voice. 

"Alright, today you are going to do what every cultivator will need to learn to do in their life. I'm going to teach you how to kill," Ning said. 

"B-But master, I- I can't."

"Calm down and listen. That was one of the men that beat me while I was injured. You don't have to kill him if you don—"

"HE HURT YOU!?!?" Anya's expression suddenly changed. 

Jan was right in front of Anya now. The other elders were coming to interfere, but the elders from the dazzling sect, who were stronger, were interfering with their interference, so they couldn't interfere in time. 

Just then, Anya dashed forward. Her combined strength of 11th level of Body cultivation and 1st realm of Foundation establishment realm was very strong. 

Jan was surprised, but he couldn't avoid it in time. She punched out as hard as she could and accurately hit Jan right in the temple. An audible crack could be heard and Jan was piled down into the ground, unconscious in a single hit. 

As soon as he was down, Anya started punching him more and more. Soon, his entire face was deformed, however, that was the least of his worries. Actually, Jan no longer had to worry about anything in the world, ever. 

The elders and disciples on both sides were shocked as a girl half his age just beat the sect leader's disciple to dare. 

"YOU DARE!!" the sect leader angrily screamed and jumped towards Anya. 

"Let's stop this farce."

The sect leader was blown back and Ning's body appeared in front of everyone. 

"Wha—"

"Ghost!"

"How"

People everywhere exclaimed. Only after a few seconds did the people stop talking and the disciples and elders saw him. 

"Doctor Ning?"

"It's Doctor NIng!" 

Both Yelca and Gion were surprised. 

"Sect Leader. that's him! That's the man who disappeared with sec— previous sect leader Mallus," A disciple screamed. 

The sect leader stood up straight and looked at Ning with daggers in his eyes. He then saw his disciple dead at the little girl's feet and felt both shame and anger at the fact that he had been killed by a mere girl. 

"Anya, go stay with the elders for now," Ning said. 

"Yes, master," she said and walked away. 

"Anya are you alright?" the other elders immediately took her and started checking if she was hurt anywhere. Ning smiled when he saw that she was truly loved here. 

"Faran! No, you're useless... You!" the sect leader pointed to another disciple and asked, "Confirm his words, is this really him?" 

"Yes, sect leader. He's the man that won the Triennial Tournament and then disappeared with the previous sect leader," the disciple confirmed it. 

"So it is you!" he said. 

"Alright, let's not waste time. You clearly don't care for Mallus, which means you are here for one of three reasons. You either want to learn how I teleport so easily, you either want Angel's touch or you want my mid-grade Spirit artifact. So, which one is it?" Ning asked.

"I— I don't need your fruit, and I certainly don't need your spear. I have one myself," he said as he took out the blue spear that Ning bought that Faran got later on. 

"Oh, that's my spear," Ning said. "I bought that one. Although I kinda left Faran to have it since I got a new one." 

He suddenly took out his own identical but clearly better spear. The sect leader's face showed signs of drooling, but he quickly controlled himself.

"You! I don't care about these materialistic items. Tell me what you did to the sect leader," he shouted while flaring out his 8th Foundation Establishment realm cultivation base. 

"Well since you insist." 

Ning suddenly disappeared and appeared next to the new sect leader. He then disappeared again with the sect leader and appeared once more. Only this time, the sect leader was no longer with him.

"What? Where's the sect leader?" the elders started getting scared. 

"Don't bother thinking about him. His corpse, if you can even call it that, lays at the same place where your previous sect master's lies. That's what you get for messing with me."

Ning then took out a blue spear and tossed it towards Faran. Faran caught the spear and immediately got shocked. "Th-This is not mine," he said. 

"Take that and become the sect leader. Kill who you need to, and save who you must. Be righteous and make a better name for the Dazzling sect. Now leave," Ning ordered. 

The remaining elders weren't strong enough to fight the two sects, so they left immediately. 

Faran gave Ning a deep bow and then he left too.
