The final battle between Sonje and Raoul was about to start.

Right before the start, Raoul made a bet with Sonje.

"Hey, BROTHER, someone from the Crimson Cloud Sect is here. I will go there after this and you will stay here, as a slave. After I beat you, come and lick my foot." Raoul said as a side villain would.

Sonje looked at Arata, who was sitting beside Chen.

Arata gave Sonje an indifferent expression.

From this, Sonje knew that Arata was not here especially for Raoul but rather for anyone who would win.

"Wanna make a bet? If I win, you will kneel in front of me and wear women's clothes for a year and if I lose, I will do what you said." Sonje offered to make the classic bet with Raoul.

Raoul nodded, meaning that he had accepted the bet.

The match then started.

At first, Raoul used the [Thousand Hands Punch] Technique and gained the upper hand for a second but Sonje soon overpowered him and was winning.

Seeing that he would lose, Raoul took out the pill that Atrata gave him.

His cultivation rose to the peak of Qi Refinement while Sonje was still at the Body Refinement level-7.

'What will you do now?' Arata thought as a smile appeared on his face.

Sonje took out his sword and used the [9 Ways of Heaven].

It was a style of using the sword in 9 ways that gave heavy damage, the only disadvantage, was its long time consumption before use.

But, it was still usable here since Raoul's movements were still very slow.

Sonje used the first way and was able to blow up the stage along with his step-brother's arm.

He fainted right there due to exhaustion of the little qi a body tempering stage person would have.

As Sonje was being taken away from the stage, Arata got up and said to Chen," Patriarch Hanyu, I will be taking Young Master Sonje with me to the Red Fire Sect in Shanshu city."

Arata left right after saying that.

While leaving, he had only one thought in his mind,' I wasted a whole day on watching this tournament, Sonje, you better not disappoint me.'

He then arrived at the inn and played with his little sister for the rest of the day.

Arata may be the Young Master of the strongest family, but he has turned into a slave to his cute little sister already.

Now, Maya's facial features are finally visible and any person can tell that she is very cute.

She has light brown hair, big eyes and cheeks that are requesting to be pinched.

-At night, Hanyu Family House-

Chen had called Sonje to the Main Hall this time.

It was the same as what happened a night ago with Raoul, the only difference was that his Step-Mother was also there.

"Patriarch, you called for me?" Sonje bowed a little and asked.

'Now he isn't even calling me father. Looks like he knows he is going to the Red Fire Sect'

The Red Fire Sect was only a Level-8 Sect, nothing special in power. But what was indeed special about it was that it was a branch of the Crimson Cloud Sect and a few disciples always went to the Crimson Cloud Sect from there so, no one in the Crimson kingdom made trouble with them.

"Son, you still have both your arms, you should be able to do something else, your brother has lost an arm, give him your place," Chen said after being influenced by his current wife.

Sonje responded," According to your words, my brother is a waste so I think it would be indirectly an insult to send my brother instead of me."

Chen had no reply to this. It was the truth.

He had no other option than to try and make Arata take Raoul along with Sonje.

-The Next Day-

Arata came to the Hanyu family's residence.

Chen, Raoul and Raoul's mother were standing at the gate to greet Arata.

"Good Morning Lord Shanyu." Chen greeted Arata

"Good Morning Patriarch Hanyu. Where is Young Master Sonje?" Arata pretended to look around.

Suddenly, Raoul fell to his knees and hugged Arata's leg, with his only remaining arm.

"What is this?" Arata asked with a confused face. This had never happened in the novels. They used to have so much attitude but now they are kneeling.

Chen started to speak,"This…
