"What is happening here right now? Are you going to make the same mistake that You Feng made? Are you going to force us to stay here? Because it is not going to go down very easily." the man said.
I used my mind eye on him.
"Level - 12
Name - Yu Jinpeng
Cultivation - Core Formation Stage Peak"
"He is quite strong." I nodded. "He must be wooing Cai Lien or something. So the people in the Inner sect are this strong."
"Don't think that we are not able to do that. We are the pill tower. If we wanted to detain some one from the sky heavens sect, then we will detain someone from the sky heavens sect. The only person in the entire sect who can probably stop us is Li Tian, and he will not go against the pill tower for someone like you." the woman said coldly.
My impression of her fell sharply. She might be a good leader, but she was going down the same path as You Feng. She was forcing us to stay here.
At this moment, one of the doors of the tower slid slowly. I could hear footsteps.
"What is this disturbance? I felt a tremor. An entire batch of ingredients, wasted like that. I will hang the person responsible for this." an old voice said with irritation.
"Do not worry, master. I will make sure that you will get that person. I will skin him alive for this impudence." a familiar voice said.
I frowned. I knew that I recognized this voice. This was the arrogant young master whose eyes fell on Cai Lien. I stood upright and looked at the person coming out.
As I had expected, the face behind that horrible person was not good as well. He was big, and not the good way. With fat all around his face, and body, he looked repulsive.
"You-You- You are the bastard who dared to speak up against me!" he suddenly pointed to me.
The woman glanced at me now. She looked at my robes, and noted that I had the robes of the sect. She glanced at another guard who came with her, and beckoned him to check me.
"Are you joking right now? Just because this guy here says something, you think that I am an imposter? Fine then. I am also an alchemist. Are you going to say that the pill tower hands alchemy badges to bandits now?" I was incensed. This was too much.
"You are an alchemist? Fine then. Show me your badge." she said.
"I don't have it. I just passed the test five days ago, because you trapped me here. And where is the compensation that the pill tower has to give us? I think that for this time that they robbed from us, they have to give each of us around fifty pieces of low ranked spirit stones." I said.
"What? Are you joking? Do you think that you are actually going to get any compensation? There was a genuine threat, and the pill tower was forced to adapt." she retorted.
"Are you going to go back on your word now? Is that what the pill tower does?" I shouted back.
"Just what on earth is happening here? Why are there so many people here on this floor? And why is the floor so damaged?" the old man who was behind the fatty young master asked.
"Old man. Did you go deaf? There was a fight. Your branch leader tried to kill all of us, and we survived. Now, I am new to the sect. I do not dare claim that I know the elders. But surely, they care about the disciples more than you think. We are the sect. Unlike your pill tower, where anyone can pay money to enter, a sect is bound to be different. So if you think that you can bully us because you have a stronger fist right now, just remember, the fist behind us is going to be different." I said coldly.
"Well said! Well said! That is how a disciple of the sect should be. Wukong was an idiot to think that you did not belong in the sect. To think that he wanted to send you to the capital. You are a true disciple of the sect. Tian did a good thing." a sonorous voice appeared.
The expression of the old man, the pill elder, changed.
"What is the third elder of the sky heavens sect doing here? I did not know that you had any plans to come here," he asked.
"Why wouldn't I come here? Our disciples have disappeared for five whole days. Did you think that the sect wouldn't notice? And you did not even think to tell the sect? Do you think that the pill tower is that strong? Any one of the powers can trample your little branch." another old manifested out of thin air.
He looked at the disciples and back at the reinforcements.
"Where are the disciples? About half of them have disappeared. Where is Cai Yun'er?" he asked almost immediately.
"That is the problem, elder. Cai Yun'er died! And half of the people that went up on the first round through the teleportation array have just disappeared! We do not know where they are, elder!" one of the disciples said.
Boom!
I felt a crushing intent pushing me down to the ground. Every single person, including the arrogant woman, the pill elder, and the fatty, all kneeled at this pressure. And the source was clear.
"Cai Yun'er died? Do you realize what this means? It means that this branch is now the enemy of both the Cai family and the Sky heavens sect. Do you think that you will survive now? Do you think that your haughty manner will continue any longer?" he bellowed.
