After the announcement, Ning Xi dispersed everyone as the the sects and audience left one by one. They would certainly remember this bizzare tournament in which only one round was needed to get the winners.
Bai Li walked towards his Sect's box as he looked at a iron coin in his hand. It was a coin which showed that he had won the qualifiers and secured a seat in main Annual Sect Tournaments for his Sect.
However, his mind was on the talk he had with Ying Yue and Ning Xi. He had a lot on his mind and didn't pay much attention to his surroundings. His body was still smelling bad and his hand was still charred black. Coupled with his torn clothes, he looked like a demon walked out from the hell.
"You're in a very bad shape, brother."
Bai Li heard a mocking voice beside him and stopped. He raised his head and found a old man standing with a young man who he could never forget.
"I'm not a flower who needs an old man to carry me around, after all."
Bai Li scoffed.
"Watch your tone, boy. He's your senior in hierarchy. Also, give that iron coin."
The Grand Elder looked at Bai Li in contempt and streched his hand.
Bai Li looked at the hand and a playful smile appeared on his face.
"I have earned this, Grand Elder. So why would I give this to someone useless?"
The Grand Elder's face darkened as he demanded once again, this time his voice carrying the anger.
"Give that iron coin before I snap at you, boy."
"You can try to."
Bai Li didn't back away and even took a step forward. He really dared the Grand Elder to touch him, in fact he actually wanted him to do that.
The Grand Elder raised his right hand as anger surged in his eyes. He was a Grand Elder and had been treated with respect by everyone so how could he take insults from a junior?
"It's fine, Elder. He would come back to sect anyways. We shouldn't force him, he fought so hard for me, after all."
Bai Chen smiled as he stopped the Grand Elder and then walked towards to stand face to face with Bai Li.
"My dear brother is working so hard for me, even putting his life on the line. I can at least do this for him."
Bai Li rolled his eyes and looked around at his surroundings. He raised an eyebrow and asked.
"You guys should be in the VIP boxes so what are you doing here?"
"I want to thank that young lady who helped my brother in battle, of course. Without her, my brother would have died. So I came to thank her. I'm just finding her Divine Harem Sect."
Bai Chen recovered some of his clarity as he tried to settle the situation.
"You're mistaken. I was just here to thank you on my brother's behalf. He only survived because of you."
Ying Yue casted a glance at him and wondered if she should just slit his throat and end it right here. However, then she remembered Bai Li and decided to back away.
'He won't live past a few days anyways. Let him enjoy.'
Ying Yue took a step back and instantly felt as if a terrible abomination was jumping on her while some arrange force was locking in her body. But that soon disappeared and she smiled.
"Attacking juniors, you really have fallen too low, old bones."
Ning Xi scoffed as she clutched the Grand Elder's wrist tightly, earning a low groan from him. She was way stronger than him and her physical might was on a another level.
The Grand Elder didn't stand a chance and even he knew that. But he took the risk for some reason.
"I apologise, Lady Ning. It's just that I wanted to teach this girl some lessons that she lacks. She is threatening the young master of Seven Stars Sect, you don't think I would just let her have her way, right?"
The Grand Elder gritted his teeth and said, struggling in Ning Xi's grip.
"If that's the case then you're young master should teach her a lesson. What? Don't tell me you have such an incompetent fool as a young master that he needs fossils helps everytime a kid throws stones at him?"
Ning Xi grinned and clenched her fist, breaking the Grand Elder's wrist completely as he began groaning in pain. However, he still held it in even though the pain was immense.
"I'll just say this. You can't bully anyone in my area. If you want revenge or settle things up? Just let the older deal old and young deal with the youngsters.
So, do you want a battle with me?"
The Grand Elder glared at Ning Xi with enough hatred that if there was a technique that could make looks kill, Ning Xi would have died thousands of times.
Bai Chen who had his whole back soaked in sweat, gulped and nudged the Grand Elder while saying.
"It's fine. There is some misunderstanding but it's fine. We'll be leaving now."
Ning Xi wanted to continue but Ying Yue stopped her. She clicked her tongue and muttered.
"What a bunch of weakling!"
"Master doesn't want to do what he did with the Wind Flower Sect. He has regrets over that and you should know that as well. So, let's settle this peacefully and only deal with the culprits. There's no need to involve everyone."
Ying Yue said, her eyes filled with darkness as she looked at Ning Xi.
"By the way, What's the deal with your sister? Why did you never tell us about her?"
