Chapter 159: Fight?

"Watch your tone if you want to get out of here alive." Ju Bai Lu angrily said. The expressions of many in the gathering weren't so good while some on Ju Bai Lu's side were worried.

A fight at the anniversary of the sect wasn't a good idea. Especially if the fight was hostile and not for the promotion of the sect to boost the morale of the others and show the elders and the sect master of their potential.

Only one person smiled. Liu Yu looked at her maid and nodded. The maid nodded in return and was about to act when Wei Jun spoke up and said, "Take one more step and I will rip your throat out."

His eyes weren't aimed at Ju Bai Lu but at the maid of Liu Yu, Xao Min. She looked at him, undeterred but for the sake of the act, she had to follow along and replied, 'Yes, Master."

While everyone else thought that Wei Jun's subordinate was about to attack Ju Bai Lu, only three people in the crowd knew that that wasn't true. Ju Bai Lu and Liu Yu had this plan to incite a battle and get the elders involved under the guise of Sun Ruan's faction attacking him first, pushing the blame on them.

The third person was Lin Ruan who had picked up that something wasn't right. Still, she was relieved that her brother was sensible enough to pick up the real meaning of this façade.

Even thirty seconds wouldn't have passed when she had that thought when Wei Jun spoke, "So, was your mother a runaway bride or something?"

Stunned.

For a moment, no one spoke. Some were too stunned by what they had heard and some were still processing the words said.

'Oh, crap….' Lin Ruan thought as a punch could be seen going at Wei Jun at full speed.

**************

"Seniors," A young elder called out to the rest and said, "It looks like something is happening among the disciples."

Everyone turned their eyes to the scene where they could see Ju Bai Lu with an ugly face while Wei Jun was turned to his maid.

"I think we should split them up," Elder Zhiang said and was about to move when another voice interjected, "Those are just children playing. No need to interfere."

The elders turned to look at another old man, the older brother of the sect master, Elder Mu. "You want a fight on this sacred occasion?" Elder Zhiang asked.

"Youngbloods learn from a few injuries. It is no big deal." Elder Mu said.

Elder Zhiang was about to oppose when Sun Ruan spoke, "I couldn't agree more with you, Elder Mu."

Everyone stopped to look at Sun Ruan. Even Elder Mu was a little taken aback by the fact that Sun Ruan didn't oppose that idea.

Their plan was to bring out a dilemma that would be difficult for Sun Ruan. Refusing meant humiliation on such an occasion and acceptance led to the injury of his disciple and grandson.

"Haha!" Elder Mu laughed and said, "Very well. We elders shall not interfere tonight."

Every elder glanced at each other. Even those on Elder Mu's side thought it wasn't a good idea. A fight on such a sacred occasion was bound to be problematic.

The only way to avoid making the sect master angry was if the fight was not a fight but a duel or a spar. That way, in any case of an injury, it could at least be justified.

And while they were still having this conversation, a fist could be seen moving towards Wei Jun very fast. A young elder was about to interfere so a proper duel could be initiated when Elder Mu once again stopped him and said, "No need to interfere. Let us just begin the duel like that."

************

On the other side, Wei Jun caught the fist without much effort but it wasn't an attack from Ju Bai Lu. No. It was an attack from one of his subordinates. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

'I guess he's too worried to be implicated,' Wei Jun thought inwardly as he received a little damage from the Qi with his bare hand.

[Qi empowerment realm]

[Strength: 102]

[Agility: 98]

[Stamina: 91]

[Qi: 122]

Wei Jun was impressed. Ju Bai Lu's opponents weren't just nobodies. If Wei Jun were to use the 'Qi empowerment' skill, he could easily overpower this cultivator. His stamina was on the low side given his bulky appearance.

That also explained why his strength was so much. Wei Jun could have easily dealt with him using a single skill but that would make it too easier, wouldn't it?

Wei Jun smiled and gathered five points of Qi in his fist, throwing it at his opponent. All the others around them had already backed away, everyone including Lin Ruan who was hesitant but when she looked at Sun Ruan, he simply gestured for her to not interfere.

Wei Jun's opponent caught the fist but it wasn't quite as he was expecting, his hand felt hot albeit the Qi barrier protected him. He was about to step back when Wei Jun kneed him in his abdomen while he was still distracted by the heat from Wei Jun's attack.

The man leaned forward due to the pain in his stomach. Wei Jun once again equipped five pieces of Qi in his hand and struck the man in his chin, throwing him to the ground, disoriented.

While everyone thought that that was it, Wei Jun stepped forward and began to step on the man's arm. It was still protected by the Qi barrier but Wei Jun kept on hitting it with his foot, stomping the arm with five points of Qi on each stomp.

Soon enough, what no one thought of happened. The Qi barrier broke down and Wei Jun's foot went through the poor man's arm, separating it from his elbow, splattering blood everywhere around them.

"Aaahhhh!!!!" A blood-curdling scream spread throughout the core courtyard and many who saw the scene were terrified but their fear took a new turn when Wei Jun began to stomp on the man's face this time.

Since no Qi barrier was protecting the man, the attacks went through. He was lucky that his power was still high due to the Qi armament but it wasn't doing much for him.

Soon enough, all his teeth broke, his face bloodied and nothing what it looked like before. But that wasn't what terrified everyone. Even some of the new elders were horrified by what they saw, not on the ground but on the face of the young cultivator.

A smile that could only be described as maniacal. A smile that sent shivers down everyone's spine. Fear so strong that they felt like they wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Discover more on m|vl|e|mp|y|r

And some of the young disciples might not be able to do so at all.

The gory scene, mixed with the pleasure-filled maniacal smirk on the face of the man standing, after effortlessly fighting the man who was almost twice his size, stronger than him easily.

But still, that man was defeated in just three moves and now he was lying unconscious without an arm and his face unrecognizable by anyone, even by his own mother who gave birth to him.

Wei Jun didn't care. What gazes he was getting, he didn't care. He laughed. He laughed and laughed and laughed. His laughter spread throughout the surroundings, striking a new wave of terror in everyone, even some old elders were a little hesitant at the scene.

Soon enough, Wei Jun stopped and looked at them all, especially Ju Bai Lu who involuntarily took a step backward.

"Next time," Wei Jun said with a smirk on his face and then added with a deranged laughter, "Can send some more? I haven't had enough."

The behavior was anything but normal. Even the evil cultivators weren't like that and with the elders present at the moment, the assumption that Wei Jun was a dark or evil cultivator was ruled out.

That only meant that the expression they were seeing wasn't someone who had gone crazy from using the dark Qi, it was the genuine expression of a crazy person.

Wei Jun then turned to the elders and said, "I hope the fight was to your satisfaction, esteemed elders. I know I enjoyed it."

Wei Jun said before he tossed a pill in the mouth of the cultivator who was down. He swallowed the pill instinctively and began to heal but his arm was beyond saying. Well, Wei Jun could still help but why should he?

And while everyone thought that Wei Jun had taken mercy on the poor soul, they soon realized they were wrong.

The man who woke up began to writhe in pain because of his missing arm, even though all his damage had been healed.

And to that, Wei Jun did only one thing.

He laughed.

He laughed at man's misery.

Liu Yu, who stood by the side unclenched her fist and momentarily closed her eyes to calm herself down.

But that calm didn't last for long when Wei Jun glanced at her from the corner of his eye, mouthing the words with a deranged smile, 'Watch out.'
