It’s Lonely To Be Invincible

Chapter 103: So Cruel

Xiao Lingyin stood in mid-air, breathing heavily. He couldn’t believe that he was now left speechless by a disciple like this. How could he, an inner disciple of the Skies of Zhong Peak, be pushed to the edge by a disciple who just entered the inner sect?

Whispers could be heard coming from the spectators.

“Senior Brother Lin is right.”

“Elder Tian Xu is Senior Brother Lin’s master. It’s right for Senior Brother Lin to say that he’s a teacher to him for a day, but a father forever. So, does Senior Brother Xiao mean that he’s going to kill Elder Tian Xu too? Since he said that he’s going to kill Senior Brother Lin’s entire family.”

“Senior Brother Xiao must be insane. How could he say such things?”

“It should be meant to give Senior Brother Lin a scare since the elders aren’t present.”

To Lin Fan, he felt that he now had control of the crowd. This guy seems to still be able to keep himself intact. I admire his mentality.

“Xiao Lingyi, I can’t help but admire you. How do you dare to kill the entire sect for a woman? Should I compliment you for doing so for beauty, or does it mean that women are more important than the sect to you?

“I pity that I’m your sect mate!”

Lin Fan shook his head and sighed. He looked as if he was embarrassed to have Xiao Lingyi as his sect mate. He then turned to Liu Ruochen, who was not far away. “Senior Sister Liu, as a woman, you should strive to improve constantly. You might not have anything good in you, but as long as you make the effort, you will at least reap what you sow.

“But now, you’re making a mess in the sect, seducing man everywhere and making them fall out with each other. You’re cunning, too. The smack with this frying pan I gave you today is not because I dislike you, but to let you know that not everyone will be on your side. Remember, you are unable to act as you wish simply because you have the looks.

“To me, no matter how pretty you look, you’re just a pink skeleton. Inner beauty is more valuable than a gorgeous appearance.” (TL note)

After that, Lin Fan turned away, not even sparing Liu Ruochen a glance.

The spectating disciples were enlightened by Senior Brother Lin’s words. To them, Senior Brother Lin made sense, and they were convinced by him.

And after some thought, they realized that his words were right. Because of Liu Ruochen, the senior brothers in the inner sect were fighting with each other, destroying the peace in the sect.

But there had been nobody who dared to voice it out. Since Senior Brother Lin had now done so today, it was time they got rid of such a problem in the sect.

“Haha!” Just then, Xiao Lingyi laughed deeply. “Sharp-tongued. Indeed, sharp-tongued.”

He turned to Lin Fan, anger could be seen swimming in his eyes. “How brainwashing and sugar-coated your words are, huh? I’m going to give you a lesson today.”

Lin Fan’s heart sank. Is he going to come at me for real? There’s a huge difference between our power! I might not be able to defeat him.

“I’m going to make you kneel down and admit your mistake for hurting Junior Sister Liu.” Xiao Lingyi stared into the distance. He clenched his fist tightly, and earth energy surged. Even though he was going to spare Lin Fan’s life, he was determined to give Lin Fan a huge lesson.

Just when Lin Fan was ready to fight back with all his might, a voice boomed across the sky.

“My disciple, stand still. I’m going to take a look at the bully that dares to bully you in the sect.” Two figures stepped out of the sky in an imposing manner.

The spectating disciples kneeled down in respect after seeing the elders.

“Greetings, Elder Tian Xu and Elder Huo Rong.”

Every disciple was full of respect for the elders that made their appearance. The appearance of the elders who rarely showed themselves left all disciples present thrilled.

In the sect, the elders with high status did not interfere in any matter unless it held huge importance.

Seeing Elder Tian Xu, Liu Ruochen’s face fell. She was afraid that troubled had arrived.

Xiao Lingyi’s heart raced seeing the elders. He might’ve been part of the Skies of Zhong Peak, but even his peak leader Senior Brother Wan dared not act frivolously in front of the elders.

The ten peak leaders might’ve been of a higher status than most elders, but in front of the most powerful elders of the sect, there was no difference between the peak leaders and ordinary disciples.

“Disciple Xiao Lingyi greets elders.” Xiao Lingyi trembled. He got to the ground and bowed to the elders in respect.

“Hmph.” Elder Tian Xu sneered, making Xiao Lingyi’s legs turn to jelly. Elder Tian Xu’s demeanor made him feel like begging for forgiveness immediately.

“My disciple, ask him if he dares to touch you,” Elder Tian Xu said.

Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. So my dearest master has been taking notice of me all the time. He used the words that I used too.

Since my dearest master is here, I feel so powerful.

“Senior Brother Xiao, my master might be here, but I, Lin Fan, am not someone arrogant. My master asks you if you dare to touch me.”

Xiao Lingyi was boiling with anger, but he had his head lowered.

“Master, he says that he dares not.” Lin Fan turned to Elder Tian Xu with respect.

Elder Tian Xu nodded lightly. “Disciple, what do you think should be done?”

After a short pause, Lin Fan cupped his fist. “Even though Senior Sister Liu has bullied my little brother and Senior Brother Xiao wants to kill my entire family, this disciple is still forgiving. To your humble disciple, where it’s possible to forgive one, he should be spared.”

Elder Tian Xu nodded softly before turning to Xiao Lingyi. “If you’re going to murder my disciple’s family, are you going to murder me too!?” he yelled.

Plop!

Xiao Lingyi trembled and kneeled to the ground immediately. His face turned as pale as a sheet of paper. “Mighty Elder, please forgive this disciple who talks without thinking. Please forgive me!”

Lin Fan sighed. He changes so fast, where was his demeanor that he had before? Now he’s kneeling down just like that?

This is such a disappointment.

A person like this is not worthy of being my opponent. He’ll only be my points at most.

After a moment of silence, Lin Fan stepped out. “Master, disciple feels that Senior Brother Xiao is pardonable. Everyone makes mistakes, as long as he’s remorseful, that’s more than enough.”

Elder Tian Xu looked at Lin Fan weirdly. He never thought that Lin Fan would make such a comment.

Xiao Lingyi looked up at Lin Fan in shock too. He did not know why Lin Fan chose to speak for him.

Just then, Lin Fan made another comment. “However, this incident caused by Senior Brother Xiao has affected both the inner and outer sect largely. He should receive the punishment he deserves.”

Xiao Lingyi immediately did a few kowtows. “Disciple knows my mistake. Disciple is willing to be subjected to punishment, please spare my life, elder.”

It was absolutely against morality to talk about murdering one’s elders.

Elder Tian Xu said nothing, as if he was waiting for Lin Fan to finish his words.

“For this incident, Senior Brother Xiao can be spared from the death sentence, but he should still be punished. Disciple feels that abolishing his cultivating and kicking him out of the sect is the best choice.”

As soon as Lin Fan said this, Xiao Lingyi nearly suffocated.

Elder Huo Rong, standing at the side, was greatly shocked too.

Abolishing his cultivation? What’s the difference from taking his life, then?

Could be spared from the death sentence, but he should still be punished, huh?

That’s so cruel.
