Monster

"And who the fuck are you? You are clearly not a disciple of this Sect, so how did you get in here?" Ren Fuchen finally noticed Yuan and Xiao Hua standing by the side.

"Who am I? I am the person who gave him that Fiery Lizard monster core," said Yuan, his expression calm.

"Daoist Yuan!" Mo Zhou looked at him with wide eyes.

"Hoh? So you are the one..." Ren Fuchen looked at Yuan with narrowed eyes.

"Why did you give him something as precious as the Fiery Lizard monster core? What did he offer in return?" he asked.

"He didn't give me anything, nor do I want anything from him. I gave it to him simply because I felt like it," Yuan casually replied.

Although he didn't know who Yuan was, Ren Fuchen was wary of him. After all, what kind of normal individual would give away something as valuable as a Fiery Lizard monster core for free?

"And? What do you want?"

"Stop bullying him" Yuan ordered

"And what if I said no?" While Ren Fuchen didn't want to offend someone as mysterious as him, he wasn't afraid of him. Not only is he a Chosen but they are still inside the Flying Sword Sect, where he has protection in every direction.

"You will die" Yuan simply replied

"You..." Ren Fuchen instantly frowned at his words.

"Daoist Yuan!" As for Mo Zhou, he looked at Yuan with tears in his eyes, his gaze filled with admiration, and his heart filled with gratitude.

"I do not know which hole you crawled from, but consider this is your last warning!" Ren Fuchen said as he unsheathed the sword by his side, causing the aura around him to change.

"You got this upon yourself" Yuan said as he retrieved his Sword

When Ren Fuchen saw Yuan's sword that was emitting a powerful and sharp aura, his eyes widened with shock.

"A Spirit-grade sword... and it's even peak quality! He actually has a peak quality spiritual weapon!"

Ren Fuchen frowned deeply after realizing that Yuan had a peak quality weapon whilst he only held a medium quality weapon. His attitude also changed, and he no longer looked at this situation as calmly as before. After all, he is already at a disadvantage before the fight even started! Compared to Yuan's peak quality weapon, his medium grade quality is akin to a wooden stick!

"If you hand over that weapon as an apology, then I don't mind forgiving you for everything you've done up to this point, and I will even stop bothering Mo Zhou. How does that sound?"

"I will let you have the first attack" Yuan said without changing his stance

"How dare you a mere Spirit Apprentice underestimate me"

Ren Fuchen roared as he charged towards Yuan with the sword in his grasp raised high in the air.

"Triple Sword Strike!"

Ren Fuchen connected three attacks together in the blink of an eye, making it seem as though he attacked three times with a single movement.

In the next instant, Yuan raised his sword, blocking all three strikes with a single move.

"What?!"

Ren Fuchen exclaimed in surprise after Yuan perfectly blocked his attack.

Yuan blocked the three strikes without even moving.

"If you can block this attack I will let you live" Yuan said while using his technique

"Bloody Sword Strike"

The blade of the sword suddenly glowed red, and killing intent filled the place.

"?!?!?!?!"

Ren Fuchen nearly crapped his pants when he realized that Yuan had just used an Earth-grade sword technique.

Ren Fuchen hastily raised his sword to block the incoming attack.

Bang!

The moment their swords collided, Ren Fuchen felt his Sword cracking, "not good help me!" He shouted for help from his fellow disciple

In the next moment, the disciple retrieved his sword and approached them at high speed.

But before he could reach Yuan Ren Fuchen sword broke and Yuan's Sword sliced through Ren Fuchen`s body, cleanly splitting him in half.

"Senior brother" shouted the disciple while rushing towards Yuan

Once Ren Fuchen`s two halves fell to the ground, Yuan turned towards the disciple, before the disciple could react Yuan sliced his head causing blood to spray

Suddenly a a middle-aged man with sharp features and a dominating presence appeared

He then turned to look at Yuan. "That technique you used just now... You must be from the Blood Sect."

"I do not want any trouble with you or your place, so please just leave us alone. As for this incident, it was our fault, so you don't have to worry about anything."

Everybody there was speechless watching their domineering Sect Leader act so humble before someone way younger. Not many of them even have heard of this Blood Sect, so they were also puzzled.

I don't mind pretending what happened today did not occur, but you have to promise me that my friend, Mo Zhou, will no longer be bullied by his fellow disciples." Yuan said that Just to get the bonus from Mo Zhou not that he needed it

"Daoist Yuan!" Mo Zhou couldn't believe his ears and began crying. Why would Yuan go this far for him when he didn't do anything to really deserve this treatment?

"Mo Zhou, huh?" The Sect Leader turned to look at Mo Zhou for a moment before saying, "You will be my disciple starting today! Anyone who dares to touch you will have to answer me!"

"What?!"

When the Sect Leader made his announcement, everybody there gasped in shock, Mo Zhou included.

"Greet your new Master!" The Sect Leader continued.

Mo Zhou immediately kowtowed on the ground and bowed to him.

"This disciple greets Master!"

"Good! Starting today, you will be training under me!"

"Yes!"

Mo Zhou replied with enthusiasm in his

"Then I will be taking my leave," Yuan said.

The Sect Leader nodded and looked at Mo Zhou again, "Go guide our guest to the exit!"

"Yes, Master!"

Thus, Mo Zhou brought Yuan and Xiao Hua away from the crowd.

Once they were gone, the Sect Leader thought "To be able to kill 2 Spirit Warriors with 1 strike while only being a Spirit Apprentice what kind of monster is that"

Even though Yuan killed 2 of his Sect disciples he didn't want to offend the Blood Sect
