Six Paths in Attendance

The burning qi surrounding the sect master instantly causes the surrounding temperature to soar up. Being looked down on his own territory in front of his people, the sect master losses his composure and attacked.

"Blazing Inferno!" the sect master shots a whirlpool of fire from his hands towards the woman. His cultivation as a peak foundation establishment expert was clearly shown. He had a smirk on his lips as he watches as his attack advance towards the unmoving woman.

*POOOF!*

When the whirlpool of fire was near, the woman quickly touches the ground below her feet and a huge white smoke instantly exploded. After that, a foam of bubbles came shooting forward from within the white smoke.

*SSSSSSS*

The foam of bubbles collided with the whirlpool of fire which created a fog in the surroundings. The crowd who was watching the fight all jumped back as they distance themselves.

The sect master knowing that his attack has been countered jumped in the air. The reason he do that was because he can't clearly see in the fog. But what he didn't expect was that as he jumps in the sky, a giant crustacean was moving towards him. His expression instantly changes as he twisted his body to avoid being caught by those giant pincers.

*snap*

A loud snapping sound ring in the sect master's ear as he just barely avoid being caught. Cold sweat ran down through his back as he thinks, 'If I get caught by those things, I will be definitely cut in half'

The sect master appeared in front of the elders of the Burning Hall while he was still covered in fiery qi. He was staring coldly at the fog as he clenches his fists tightly. The fog in the area was slowly disappearing revealing what was hidden inside.

The people from the Burning Hall and the cultivators from the Jade Flower Sect all wore a surprised expression as they stared what was in front of them. A giant crustacean was there and in its head is the same woman. She was staring at the sect master without any expression in her face.

"There is something different in that woman" standing in the side, Elder Lin commented. She knew that the sect master of the Burning Hall also notice it. The four cultivators behind her also nodded their head as they stare seriously towards the woman.

"Elder Lin, should we help the Burning Hall in this fight?" one of the women behind Elder Lin said. Although she doesn't like the sect master of the Burning Hall, their Jade Flower Sect and the Burning Palace have a friendly relationship. Also, the woman was here to take the item which they also needed, she thought that it is reasonable to help the Burning Hall.

Elder Lin thought that what she said was reasonable so she replies, "When the perfect opportunity comes, we will take action"

Ye Yun who was controlling the animal path from afar was slightly surprised when she saw the people from the Jade Flower Sect. Especially when he saw someone familiar to him, it was Elder Lin who takes his sister as a direct disciple. The slight surprised in his eyes instantly vanished as he wasn't here for them. He was here to complete his mission, he will not do anything to them as long as they don't attack him. But if they joined the sect master against him, he can only retaliate against them.

"I will say this again, give me the Flaming Lotus Flower and I will leave, if not" the animal path stretch both her hands at the side and said, "Summoning Jutsu"

*POOF*

*POOF*

Two gigantic smoke simultaneously exploded in each end of her hands. The face of the sect master instantly changes when he saw two white smoke suddenly appeared. It was the same as before, this smoke also appeared earlier when his attack was about to hit the woman.

An extremely loud bellows came from within the smoke which startled everyone. After that, two gigantic beasts came out of the white smoke. One was a gigantic Ox with brown fur and there was black metallic rod on its head and leg. The other one was a gigantic Rhino with a small wings behind its back, and there is also black metallic rod on its body.

A woman, a giant crustacean, a giant ox, and a giant rhino. Each of them had something in common, and that is the metallic rods and the eyes.

Seeing the two additional gigantic beasts, the faces of the sect master and the six elders of the Burning Hall went down. Although they can't feel any qi in each of them, they are all sure that this is not ordinary.

The sect master knew that the situation is getting worst, he knew he needed to end this battle quickly before the entire place was destroyed. He said towards the elders, "Each two of you will battle one of those beasts. I think that beasts are a contracted beast, although I don't know what method she used to contract three beasts at the same time. A contracted beast is still a contracted beast, they will disappear when their master is dead"

The elders behind him knew that the sect master wanted to battle the woman alone. If their sect master manages to defeat the woman, the beasts will instantly disappear.

"Go" the voice of the woman sounded and the three beasts immediately charged forward. The ground was continuously shaking in each step the Ox and the Rhino takes.

"KILL!!" the sect master and the six elders shouted at the same time as they flew towards their enemies with flaming qi surrounding their bodies.

"The sect master and the elders of the Burning Hall will be defeated" Elder Lin said as she watches the clashes between the two group. The sect master was having a difficult time against the woman as all of his attacks misses its target. Even if he attacks at the blind spot of the woman, she can still easily dodge and countered it.

The six elders of the Burning Hall are in clear disadvantage. Their attacks towards the beasts although it hits the target, it creates little to no damage against the beasts. If this continues, they will surely run out of qi before they defeat their enemies.

Watching as the situation turned grim for the Burning Hall, Elder Lin decided to take action, "Three of you will help the elders to fight against the beasts. One of you will come with me and help the sect master, now move"

"Yes," the three woman jump towards the elders of the Burning Hall to help. While Elder Lin and one woman jump towards the sect elder.

Ye Yun who was having a good time playing with his enemies suddenly frowned. As their eyes were all connected, he was clearly displeased when the cultivators from the Jade Flower Sect decided to join the fight against him.

Holding her sword, Elder Lin and the other woman appeared behind the animal path. Both of them calculated it and decided to attack this time while the animal path was in the air because she jumped back.

*swish*

*swish*

Elder Lin and the woman swing their swords towards their enemy at the same time. The animal path twisted her body and turn to dodge both the sword strike. The sect master's eyes turn bright when the people from the Jade Flower Sect decided to help him. Taking the chance while the woman was dodging both the swords, he also jumps forward and punches out.

*BAAAMM*

The animal path crosses both her arms across her chest to block the punch. But the impact and the force behind the punch was still strong and she was sent flying before she came crashing to the ground.

Both Elder Lin and the other woman landed beside the sect master. There is a small trickle of blood in the corner of the lips of the sect master. "I thank Elder Lin and the Jade Flower Sect for their assistance this time"

The sect master bowed while cupping both his fists towards Elder Lin.

"Don't worry about it, the Burning Palace and the Jade Flower Sect have a friendly relationship. As your Burning Hall is a branch sect of the Burning Palace, it is only right for us to help you. Besides, the woman wanted the Flaming Lotus Flower, how can I just let her take it away from my eyes" Elder Lin said with assurance towards the sect master of Burning Hall.

*POOF*

*POOF*

*POOF*

The three beasts exploded in white smoke and disappeared. The people who were fighting those beasts were confused at first before their lips turned into a smile. The six elders and the three women from the Jade Flower Sect went back and joined the Sect master and Elder Lin.

"Sect master is that woman already defeated. I say she really had a tough beasts and it was extremely difficult to defeat it" one of the elders on the Burning hall said.

"No" the sect master answered seriously as he stared at the figure standing in the distance. Everyone was staring at the woman who still has the same indifferent expression on her face.

"You decided to interfere in my fight, so don't expect me to be polite with you," the woman said while looking at Elder Lin.

"I am an Elder from the Jade Flower Sect. I am here to do business with the Burning Hall. We are also here for the Flaming Lotus Flower, so I just can't let you take it away without doing anything" Elder Lin said as her green robe flutter in the wind.

"I see, we have come here for the same item," the animal path said, "Then we will just see if you can survive this"

The animal path then put both her hands against the ground and an explosion of white smoke appeared again.

Seconds later, when the white smoke disappeared. Everyone's expression turned again, surprise was written all over their faces as they stared what was in front of them. The sect master and Elder Lin's faces turned grim. In front of them were not beasts, but human. They all wear the same clothes, black long cloak with a chin-high collar and there was red clouds design on it.

They all had the same orange hair color, several piercing on their faces and body, and their eyes were all the same.

Elder Lin and the Sect master knew that the situation gets even worse than before. Especially the sect master, as he fought the woman before, he was already taking a very hard time against the woman but now five of them suddenly appeared.

"The Six Paths of Pain in Attendance" the man in front which has a spiky medium length orange hair said.
