In the residence at the peak of the mountain …
Wang Jiandong opened his eyes, and he felt a little light-headed.
"It really doesn't feel good to have my head chopped off …"
Wang Jiandong took a moment to recuperate, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He had always been the one to kill the inner disciples, and this was the first time in his life that someone had chopped off his head. Even though the Ethereal Hall did not pose a threat to his life, the pressure he had felt back then still made his heart palpitate a little.
"Even though I've lost an Ethereal Token, Senior Lujie should be able to see through the other party's flaws. There should be a chance for me to defeat him!"
Wang Jiandong quickly regained his confidence.
He was filled with admiration for the number one inner disciple, Liu Lujie.
Over the years, no matter how powerful the moves he had learned or how powerful his attacks were, they were no different from toddlers before the other party.
In other words …
The other party's strength was unfathomable!
It was just like how you scored 99 marks while the top student scored 100 marks. The difference between the two wasn't just a single mark but a hundred marks. The top student's true strength was far beyond that.
If he could see through the other party's moves in advance, wouldn't it be a walk in the park for him to slay him?
Dong dong dong!
While Wang Jiandong was deep in thought, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Who's here at this time?"
Wang Jiandong asked doubtfully as he stood up and walked out of the residence.
This was Liu Lujie's residence. Under normal circumstances, he should not have interfered in the residence, but Liu Lujie was currently in the Ethereal Hall killing the arrogant I Am Low Profile, so he had no choice but to open the door.
Jiya!
The door opened, and a few inner disciples lowered their heads and looked at Wang Jiandong. "Brother Liu Shi, please calm down. We didn't mean to disturb you …"
But before they could finish their words, they suddenly recognized the person before them and smiled awkwardly. "Senior Wang, may I know if Brother Liu Shi is around?"
"What's the matter?"
Wang Jiandong frowned.
These people were not even in the top thousand of the inner disciples. While he knew them, he had never interacted with them before. What did they want from Brother Liu Shi?
"Brother Liu Shi is the number one inner disciple of the Ethereal Hall, so we would like to trouble him with a favor …" the inner disciple who had spoken earlier said with a reddened face.
"I'm not free!"
Not expecting such a request, Wang Jiandong's face darkened as he prepared to close the door.
The number one disciple in the inner sect had great influence, but if ordinary disciples came to him for help, what prestige would he have left?
He absolutely could not allow this to happen.
"Not free? What an imposing manner. Are all inner sect disciples so powerful now? "
Before the door could close, a voice rang out. Wang Jiandong hurriedly raised his head and saw a voluptuous woman walking over with a displeased look on her face.
"Senior Sister Bai …"
Wang Jiandong's eyebrows twitched when he saw the person's appearance. He hastily cupped his fists and bowed.
The person standing before him was none other than the infamous female overlord of the core disciples, Bai Ruanqing!
Among the core disciples, she was neither the strongest nor the most talented, but she had a powerful grandfather, Elder Bai Ye, who was one of the three great elders of the sect!
Even though Elder Bai had been injured recently, no one dared to look down on his status.
For this reason, even though Bai Ruanqing had injured quite a few core disciples, none of them dared to do anything to her. Instead, they chose to stay far away from her, not daring to speak a word to her.
They did not have much interaction with her, so why would she suddenly come looking for them?
"I'm here to ask Liu Lujie to help me find an inner disciple. Is he capable of doing that?" Bai Ruanqing harrumphed coldly.
"Senior Sister Bai, feel free to instruct us. Brother Liu Shi and I won't turn you down," Wang Jiandong replied with a nod.
He did not dare to turn her down!
If Bai Ruanqing were to get angry and crush his manhood with a kick, he would have no choice but to endure it!
Putting aside the inner disciples, no one in the core disciples would stand up for him!
"Senior Sister, please enter!"
Wang Jiandong asked curiously. "May I know which inner disciple has offended you? Tell me, and I'll have someone look into it right away!"
"I have some matters to discuss with him!"
Bai Ruanqing frowned. With a flick of her finger, she took out a portrait and said, "This is how he looks like!"
Not only was Bai Ruanqing's cultivation high, she was also an expert painter. She had managed to draw Zhang Xuan's appearance to perfection.
"Who is he?"
Wang Jiandong asked with a frown. "My apologies, but I have never seen him before!"
He had been a disciple of the inner disciples for a very long time, so he was familiar with most of them.
"You have never seen him before? Where's Liu Lujie? Where did he go? Tell him to come out and take a look, "Bai Ruanqing said.
"Brother Liu Shi is currently sparring with someone in the Ethereal Hall," Wang Jiandong replied.
"Sparring?" Bai Ruanqing frowned. "Isn't he the number one inner disciple? Who is he sparring with in the Ethereal Hall? "
If the number one inner disciple were to go to the Ethereal Hall, wouldn't that be a one-sided slaughter? Who in the world could possibly defeat him?
"He's sparring with an arrogant fellow named I Am Low Profile … But it doesn't matter. As long as I make a move, I'll surely be able to kill him!"
But before Wang Jiandong could finish his words, the sound of a stool falling to the ground echoed in the room. Raising his head, he saw Liu Lujie walking out with a pale face.
"Senior!"
Liu Lujie hurriedly rose to his feet, and the other inner disciples followed suit.
"You are Liu Lujie?"
Bai Ruanqing asked.
"Paying respects to Senior Bai!"
Liu Lujie clasped his fist.
"Senior, how did it go? Did you manage to kill that person? "Wang Jiandong asked curiously.
Liu Lujie shook his head. "I was killed!"
"You … were killed?" Wang Jiandong narrowed his eyes in astonishment. "Senior, did you manage to force him to use his ultimate move?"
"This …" Liu Lujie smiled bitterly. "I charged forward, but I was sliced in two by the other party's sword, and then … I died!"
"Sliced in two?"
Wang Jiandong was dumbfounded.
He admitted that he was no match for the other party! But the other party was Brother Liu Shi, the number one inner disciple, and yet, he was still killed in a single move.
Just who in the world was that fellow?
Where did he come from?
"What happened?"
Noticing that something was amiss, Bai Ruanqing asked doubtfully.
"Senior Bai, it's like this …"
Liu Lujie swiftly recounted the events that had transpired.
"Someone dares to challenge all of the inner disciples in the Ethereal Hall?" Bai Ruanqing was stunned. "Is there really someone more arrogant than me?"
Wasn't that a little too overbearing?
There were tens of thousands of inner disciples in the Ethereal Hall, and yet, a single person actually challenged all of them? Was this for real?
Due to her grandfather's influence, she was already arrogant enough in the Ethereal Hall. Who could have thought that there would be someone even more arrogant than her?
More importantly, the other party even had the nickname 'I Am Low Profile'.
Vicious!
That was the epitome of arrogance!
"I would like to see who that fellow is …" Bai Ruanqing rose to her feet with fighting spirit burning in her eyes.
The reason why she was known as a female dinosaur was not just because of her fiery temper but because she loved to fight.
How could she not be tempted by the fact that such a powerful expert had appeared in the Ethereal Hall, defeating even the number one inner disciple so easily?
"Senior Bai, you are a core disciple. It would be against the rules if I were to head over …" Liu Lujie's face reddened.
No matter what, this was a battle between inner disciples. As a core disciple, how could Senior Bai interfere in their affairs?
"I'll head over to see if it's that core disciple pretending to be an inner disciple!" Bai Ruanqing waved her hand grandly. "Of course, I'll also take a look to see what kind of move he used to render you helpless!"
"This …"
Liu Lujie was taken aback.
Even though he had said that it was impossible for the other party to be a core disciple, what if the other party was really that shameless?
As the most famous female dinosaur in the Ethereal Hall, there was no harm in him heading over to take a look. At the very least, he would be able to see if the other party's true identity was beyond that of an inner disciple.
If that was the case, there would be no point in the duel anymore.
"I'll be troubling you then, Senior Bai!"
Understanding this, Liu Lujie took out two more Ethereal Tokens and passed one over to Bai Ruanqing.
The Ethereal Tokens could better disguise one's identity, so most disciples would carry several of them with them in case of emergencies.
It was just like how everyone had more than one QQ account.
"It's no trouble at all. I'll help you find out who that fellow is and find the flaws in his moves so that you can defeat him. As for the rest of you, you just have to help me find out who that fellow is," Bai Ruanqing said with a nod.
"I don't owe anyone any favors, so we're even now."
"Alright!"
Liu Lujie nodded before returning to the Ethereal Hall with Wang Jiandong and the others.
This time, she used another Ethereal Token, and her appearance was different from before. In order to prevent others from recognizing her, she changed her appearance as well.
The three of them walked into the Ethereal Hall, but not a single person recognized them.
At this moment, a huge crowd had gathered in front of the dueling ring.
The inner disciples who were unaware of the news immediately gathered around Zhang Xuan. Each of them was burning with rage as they piled up on the stage.
"How many people has he killed so far?"
Liu Lujie turned to an inner disciple not too far away and asked, "I Am Low Profile", "I Am Low Profile", only to be slain in the blink of an eye by the side of the dueling ring.
"It should be more than two hundred. Anyone who steps onto the dueling ring will be killed instantly. Not a single one of them has been able to last more than a single blow. Even Senior Liu Lujie was sliced in two with a single slash! "
The inner disciple replied.
While he was furious at the arrogant fellow, he knew that the other party was truly powerful. He had no choice but to concede to him!
If even the number one expert of the inner disciples had been killed so easily, there was no way the others would be a match for him. At this point, he could only hope that he could gather more people to join the dueling ring so that he could kill the other party.
"More than two hundred?"
Liu Lujie's eyebrows shot up.
How long had it been since he left? Three minutes? Five minutes?
Did that fellow kill another hundred and seventy or eighty people already?
The heck!
Did he have to be so ferocious?
Inner sect disciples were no different from ants in the hands of the other party!
"Senior Bai, could that person be a core disciple in disguise?"
Liu Lujie turned to Bai Ruanqing and asked.
"This …"
Bai Ruanqing shook her head. "None of you are able to force him to use his trump card. I can't tell at all!"
