"Tch! You only fought a bunch of useless trash, what's there to be happy about?"
After the voice spoke, two young men appeared before the group in an instant.
*Swoosh!*
Luke frowned immediately seeing their attire.
pαndα`noν?1--сoМ The others revealed fearful expressions as they saw the two. They recognized who they were since they had been in the sect longer than Luke.
'Core Disciples, and these two...they are..'
Both young men wore the attire of Core Disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
This meant that at the very least, their cultivation would be at the Grand Martial Realm.
But Luke remained calm when he thought of Arthur who stood behind them.
Ballor didn't flinch at their appearance, and it was not just because of Arthur's presence, no. Rather it was because he was fearless and his emotions were not shaken in the least.
And as for Sun Wukong, "New guys huh?"
He suddenly remembered how his strength improved from the last battle and thought, 'If I fight them, then maybe I will be able to awaken greater power!'
With that thought, he wasted no time and said, "Hey, pretty boy! You are strong right?"
His question was directed at one of the two who had a feminine appearance.
"What did you just call me?!"
"Let's fight pretty boy!" Sun Wukong grinned and leaned forward to attack.
*Swish!* *Bang!*
"Gah!" A punch suddenly landed on his stomach, taking out all the air in his lungs.
The feminine Core Disciple blitzed back to where he was and brought out a handkerchief and began to clean his knuckles.
"Filthy trash!" He spoke with disdain.
"I-!"
Sun Wukong wanted to say something but it seemed that the punch he received did more than restrict his airflow.
'I can't move!'
'What sort of technique is this?'
Sun Wukong couldn't move no matter what he did. He couldn't understand what just happened.
He could not even react fast enough to the young man's speed.
In this place, only two people saw what happened clearly.
One of them was the feminine young man's companion, and the other person was of course, Arthur.
When the punch of that disciple landed on Sun Wukong, a strange force penetrated his body and messed up the parts responsible for movement.
Arthur knew what that technique was, but he was not sure if it was available in the sect for disciples to learn.
This was because he had only witnessed such technique being used by the most powerful guards of the Emperor.
So it came as a shock to him how this young man was able to use that technique.
'Well, I guess it's time for me to reveal myself then.'
Arthur was about to speak, but someone spoke first.
"I still suggest we kill them."
It was the other Core Disciple.
His words caused a shiver down the spines of Arthur's faction members and some immediately kneeled on the ground and began to beg.
"Please spare us! I didn't mean to offend you!"
"Yes, I had eyes but failed to see Mount Tai! Show mercy seniors!"
One of the reasons they reacted like that was because they recognized the Core Disciple that spoke.
'The Grim Reaper, Tadaro!'
If there was any disciple that is suspected to have killed the most in the sect, it would be him.
But while there were rumors of his killings, there was no concrete evidence and anyone who claims that he killed a fellow disciple would mysteriously enter the 'List of Missing Disciples'.
Since then, no one dared to get into a conflict with him unless they were stronger or you had sufficient backing in the sect.
"Hmm, I can spar you, but you only need to say a few words," A nasty grin appeared on Tadaro's face.
"Anything, Milord!"
"Good, it seems you are worth keeping alive after all."
There were only four of the group who kneeled and begged.
They nodded their heads frantically.
"Now I will let you your go as long as you say the words, 'Invincible is trash' nine times."
'What?'
They were dumbfounded by that. Although they were cowards, they had some reverence for Arthur.
*Gulp!*
They felt ashamed and humiliated but the truth was they had thought of leaving the faction for some time now.
They had heard the rumors.
Crixus the son of the Vice Sect Leader will be out of seclusion soon and when he does, they had no faith that the Invincible Sword Faction will still be able to stand.
But they decided to wait a bit as they wanted to gain a few benefits before leaving as they knew that Arthur was helping them grow quickly without any strict requirements, unlike other factions where the competition was much.
But then they heard of a treasure map and decided to wait until after they partook of the mission before leaving the faction.
Arthur had told them all that the treasure map was real and that they'veoukd also be able to take care of any ambush by the Blood Sword Faction members.
After the news of Arthur's fight with the inner disciples, they had great confidence in Arthur's strength.
After all, there is no way the Blood Sword faction will send Core Disciples to meet outer court disciples like them.
'That would be overkill!' They thought.
But unfortunately for them, the Blood Sword Faction did just that.
They felt a bit guilty due to the nasty looks they received from their fellow disciples and also Luke.
While Evelyn's gaze looked more complicated than critical, but only Arthur noticed.
Arthur decided to watch how this will play out. But he had already discarded the four as members of his faction already.
"It's not my fault, who asked the faction to be weak," one of them tried to justify himself and decided to be the first to speak.
"Invincible...is...T-"
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*...
All four of them were suddenly punched so hard that they found themselves with heavy injuries.
"Filthy traitors!" Like spat on the ground.
He was the one who attacked, as he could not stand and do nothing while these traitors dishonored his master.
"Oh, interesting...I guess I will kill you first then."
"Tadaro, I told you no killing!"
"Don't worry, I will only leave him on the verge of death. Nothing too serious..."
"I see that you like to pick on the weak." A voice replied as footsteps echoed in the valley.
"Huh?"
Everyone turned in the direction the voice came from and saw a figure covered in blood from hair to toe hiding his facial features.
Only Arthur recognized him at a glance.
'So this is what you've been up to...'
