Primordial Cultivator

Xia Tingfeng who just woke up after hearing Elder Guo's words was dazed before recalling what happened.

"M-Monster- how can he be an outer disciple?" Xia Tingfeng mumbled softly.

"What nonsense are you spouting disciple Xia Tingfeng?" Elder Guo asked with a gawking expression.

He has been spectating the sect ranking for the outer disciples for years and Xia Tingfeng has the potential to become an inner disciple within 3 months.

However, his expectation from Xia Tingfeng has completely vanished when he witnessed him acting like this.

Not only was he beaten unconscious, but he was also humiliated by being stripped naked and hanged in a lamp post yet his first response was 'monster'.

"Look at your current condition," Elder Guo then shouted, hoping Xia Tingfeng could regain his composure.

Xia Tingfeng snapped out of his daze as he glanced downward.

"What the hell?" Xia Tingfeng screamed in panic when he realized he was completely exposed.

"Hahaha, Xia Tingfeng's days are over."

"Look at his tiny thing. To think he was acting so arrogantly this entire day but has such a tiny thing between his legs."

When Xia Tingfeng finally realized the condition he was in, the other outer disciples that were spectating could no longer help themselves back from laughing at him.

Xia Tingfeng's face turned red from embarrassment as he tried to retrieve some clothes from his storage ring.

Alas, he soon realized that his entire item was also gone and he turned his head toward Elder Guo while covering his bottom part with his hand.

"E-Elder Guo… can you lend me some clothes as well? My items are all stolen." Xia Tingfeng asked.

Elder Guo's expression darkened as he thanked the lord that he did not decide to take Xia Tingfeng as a disciple otherwise, he feared that he would become the laughing stock among the other sect elders.

"Hmph, such disgraceful behavior." Elder Guo snorted as he retrieved some clothes and threw them at Xia Tingfeng.

Afterward, he asked for the person who thrashed and looted him.

"Who's the person that humiliated you like this?" Elder Guo's expression was fierce and Xia Tingfeng started to panic.

"I-It's that brat, Yang Wei who disappeared for a long time." Xia Tingfeng quickly said as he dressed up despite the amount of eyesight on him.

"Yang Wei? He's back in the sect?" Elder Guo mumbled softly as he became surprised.

"Yes, not only did Yang Wei disappear for a long time, but he is also in the 9th Qi Condensation Realm." Xia Tingfeng then said and continued.

"Y-Yang Wei could be a spy or someone associated with an evil sect otherwise there's no way he could improve his cultivation base in such a fast time."

Xia Tingfeng hoped his words could put Yang Wei into more trouble and possibly expulsion or crippled since he wanted revenge.

Xia Tingfeng knew he could not beat Yang Wei head-on but there are many other ways to defeat a person without lifting a finger.

Meanwhile, Elder Guo stared at Xia Tingfeng with a disappointed expression.

'Sigh, my mind must have been in a dumpster to consider this person to be my disciple.' Elder Guo sighed inwardly as he wasn't a fool to not understand his plot.

However, he didn't want to create more trouble as he shouted to the outer disciples that were spectating.

"Disperse immediately otherwise I would have you all punished with the sect rules." Elder Guo exuded a profound aura and the outer disciple quickly ran away in a hurry.

Xia Tingfeng remained still as he wanted to witness Yang Wei being punished but his action only made Elder Guo more disappointed.

"Why are you still not scramming?" Elder Guo asked.

"I-I wanted to show Elder Guo the way to Yang Wei-" Xia Tingfeng suddenly stopped his speech when he realized Elder Guo was emitting a murderous aura.

"If I count to 3 and you are still here then don't blame me for punishing you." Elder Guo glared at Xia Tingfeng and ordered him to scram.

Not even a second has passed as Xia Tingfeng tucked his tails and ran away with the fastest speed possible.

"What a disappointing youth." Elder Guo mumbled softly as he headed toward Yang Wei for an explanation of this incident.

Sometime later, Elder Guo arrived at Yang Wei's courtyard as he shouted, "Yang Wei, come outside now and explain what happened."

Yang Wei took a few moments to prepare himself and opened the door to see who it was.

'A sect elder?' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly when he saw the clothes that the middle-aged man was wearing.

"You are Yang Wei right?"

"Un, that's correct. I'm Yang Wei."

"Good, I'm Elder Guo and I only have one thing to ask of you. Why did you hang Xia Tingfeng in the lamppost and even looted his items?" Elder Guo then asked.

Yang Wei was calm as he answered swiftly. "Because Xia Tingfeng emitted a murderous intent toward me when I had no idea who he was."

And he continued, "As for the looting part, isn't it normal for the victor to get everything that belongs to the loser?"

Elder Guo was dumbfounded by Yang Wei's calm demeanor as he believed Yang Wei would admit his wrongdoing and ask for forgiveness.

However, Yang Wei showed no sign of guilt and even explained the situation perfectly without stuttering at all.

"Cough, so that means you knowingly broke the sect rules and attacked a fellow disciple inside the sect?" Elder Guo cleared his throat as he asked.

"Your question is wrong, Elder Guo. I did not break any sect rules since I am only attacking due to self-defense." Yang Wei shook his head as he tried to reason with Elder Guo.

"You- How dare you to deny your guilt and disrespect me." Elder Guo scoffed in anger.

Given his status as the sect elder that managed the outer disciples, he expected maximum respect but Yang Wei has been speaking like he was equal to him.

"Hmph, for your behavior, I shall punish you with the sect rules." Elder Guo crossed his shoulders as he smiled evilly.
