Chapter 102: Disciples’ Hunt – 4!
Slowly more Sect Leaders Lost their disciples while some decided to kill them themselves and join the attacking side.
Sword Shilla Sect Leader was one of them. He decided to follow in Shadow Veil Sect Leader’s Footsteps and join the attacking team.
While the Wood Healing Sanctuary Leader got both of his disciples killed by Shadow Veil and Thunder Peak Sect leaders.
Amethyst Moon Sect leader killed one of his disciples after getting his other disciple killed by the Eternal Blossom Sect Leader.
Now, Only Feng Xue remained with Peak Master Xia and both Protagonists hiding behind them.
Even Ashen was surprised that the attacking team didn’t target her first, given the annoying righteousness she had and weak protecting ability.
Maybe it was because of Peak Master Xia. She was a Princess of the Xia kingdom and the sect leader didn’t want to attract animosity with her or maybe it was the luck of Mo Fan and Han Yujin, who knows.
However, this was the moment when they were cornered and going to get attacked.
Their Death seemed inevitable at this moment with the amount of King realm experts after their necks.
“Feng Xue, Be smart and give up those disciples. At least, that way you won’t have to kill them with your own hands like us. You can happily keep your honor and righteousness that you cherish so dearly” Thunder Peak Sect Leader advised.
Feng Xue, however, wasn’t one to give up as she rejected his offer: “I don’t need your pity. I’m very much capable of protecting my disciples unlike you!”
“You!..” Thunder Peak Sect Leader roared in anger before channeling his lightning qi to attack, however, before anyone could launch any attack, a thunderous voice resounded in the sky.
“LET ME SEE WHO DARES TO TOUCH MY DAUGHTER!!!”
The clouds split apart as a man with a long red beard and hair, a chiseled and masculine face, a well-defined body and muscular arms, and red fiery eyes, adorned in the Phoenix Feather Sect’s uniform, emerged elegantly with a powerful aura.
“Father!! At last, you came! I thought you would take forever to come!!” Feng Xue said along with a joyous expression, her face relieved of any worries.
Her Father, the ancestor of the Phoenix Feather Sect, looked down at her with a smile and gave her a nod while descending.
——-Some Days Before——-
After receiving the letter about the tournament, Feng Xue was sitting in her sect Leader’s chambers with an angry expression.
“These upper-ranked sects, what do they think of themselves, our masters? Who gave them the right to prepone the tournament without having a meeting with all of the sects?”
“Do they think that the opinions of the lower sects don’t matter? You just have to inform them of your decision and they will obey you like a child.”
“Ahhh, this is so infuriating!”
Feng Xue cursed out loud, knowing that her voice won’t be heard by anyone.
At this moment, the curtains of her room suddenly opened and someone entered.
Since the entrance was behind her, she didn’t see who it was, but, she scolded with her mouth throwing amber while releasing her powerful pressure:
“How dare you enter my room without permission? Don’t you…!”
And as soon as she turned to see who it was, her eyes widened in joy as she exclaimed: “*Gasp* Father?”
“Yes dear daughter, It is I, Your weak father who is suffocating under your pressure.” Feng Tianlong joked with a smile before requesting with an elegant bow: “Will you do me the favor of taking it back, milady?”
“Stop It Father, You are embarrassing me!” Feng Xue said with an embarrassed expression before taking back her pressure.
“Alright, I’ll stop here.” He said before lifting both his hands towards her: “Now come and give Papa a hug!”
“Stop treating me like a little girl like you used to, I’m a sect leader now”
In response He, with a wronged expression, retorted “But for me, you’ll always be my little princess”
“Sigh, Alright!” Feng Xue admitted her defeat before going into her father’s embrace.
“Ah, I’ve waited for this moment the whole time I was in close cultivation”
After they were done with expressing their emotions, they came to a more serious topic.
“Xue Er, What were you talking about before I entered your room? It sounded something serious. Also, give me a brief about what happened while I was in close cultivation!”
“Yes, Father!”
Feng Xue explained the whole situation to him along with the past events and the two genius disciples she had taken.
“What?? An 8-star spirit genius appeared in our sect? Take me to meet him!” Feng Tianlong said with excitement and a sense of hurry.
However, Feng Xue shook her head, rejecting his request: “No Father, I have given him time to get comfortable in the sect before I start teaching him. You should meet him after the tournament”
“Sigh, alright!” Feng Tianlong accepted before suggesting with a proud smile: “As for the problem of upper-ranked sects. I think that should be solved easily since I am now a pseudo-emperor cultivator. We can easily negotiate for better resources and land allocation with my new power. They won’t be able to look down on our sect anymore.”
Feng Xue’s eyes widened in awe as she gasped: “What? You’ve become a Pseudo Emperor?”
Feng Tianlong nodded as he explained: “Yes and now we will make use of that. Hear out my Plan:”
“You go to the tournament as you intended to. Do not act suspicious there and wait till the end of the tournament. On the last day of the tournament, I’ll make my appearance and take control of the sect leaders”
“There you can ask for answers from the upper-ranked sect for looking down on our sect. I’ll also make them gift me some resources and land as congratulations to me for advancing.”
“Like this, I will not disturb the tournament of young geniuses and also will catch the sect leaders off guard. They won’t have much time to think and that will give us an advantage in the negotiations.”
“Now, don’t let anyone know that I’ve come out of my close cultivation, not even the people of our sect. We don’t want our surprise to fail, right?”
Feng Xue revealed an expression of awe and appreciation at her father’s plan.
“Yes, understood Father, I’ll do as you’ve instructed.”
Feng Tianlong nodded with satisfaction: “Good, then I’ll see you on the last day of the tournament!”
He said before leaving her chambers.
