Chapter 55 I Am the Sect Leader
"Well, I think it would be better to find a quiet place." Russell pointed around, where many onlookers had already gathered on both sides of the street.
The old woman realized she had lost her composure, suppressed her surging emotions, nodded, and gestured for Russell to lead the way.
The group then arrived at the courtyard where Su Xinghe and the others were staying.
Although the courtyard was large, it was located in a remote area with almost no pedestrians around.
When Russell pushed open the half-closed courtyard gate, Su Xinghe and the others who were busy in the courtyard immediately became alert and grabbed the weapons at hand.
"Who goes there!?" Su Xinghe shouted in a deep voice.
"It's me," Russell said, stepping in first.
When Su Xinghe and the others saw that the person who came was Russell, they breathed a sigh of relief and their faces lit up with joy. They quickly came forward to greet him.
"Junior Uncle! You've finally arrived!" Su Xinghe bowed and greeted Mu Wanqing behind Luo Su, "Miss Mu."
Russell waved his hand, stepped aside to make way for Su Xinghe, and said, "Your senior uncle has also arrived. Come out into the quiet courtyard."
"Master Uncle?" Su Xinghe was taken aback and followed Russell's gaze to look behind him.
A girl dressed in fine clothes, who looked about eight or nine years old, walked in, surrounded by a group of women in black.
Su Xinghe immediately recalled his master Wuyazi's description of this senior uncle, and a chill ran down his spine. He dared not be negligent and quickly stepped forward, bowing deeply and respectfully: "Disciple Su Xinghe greets Senior Uncle. I was unaware of your arrival and have failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me!"
The old woman hummed in response, but her gaze remained fixed on Russell, clearly indicating that her mind was elsewhere.
Su Xinghe immediately turned around and led the way himself.
In the deserted courtyard, Granny Tong sat on a specially raised armchair, looking at Russell with displeasure: "Now you can say it, right?"
"Of course." Russell then recounted the love triangle between Wu Yazi, Li Qiushui, and Ding Chunqiu.
As he narrated, Tong Lao's expression changed constantly. When she heard that Wu Ya Zi was already dead, Tong Lao was first stunned and speechless. Then, she seemed to go mad, and a terrifying aura burst forth from her body.
The ancient trees in the courtyard shook violently, fallen leaves were swept into the air by an invisible force, and the small face was contorted with extreme anger and grief: "Good! Good Li Qiushui! Good Ding Chunqiu!"
Russell lightly tapped the table with his finger, and a peaceful force field spread out, neutralizing the strange phenomenon caused by the Child Granny: "Senior Sister, calm down."
Granny Tong's entire body flushed red as she angrily said, "How can you expect me to stay calm? You said you came here to avenge Wu Yazi? Fine, count me in. We'll go right now. After killing Ding Chunqiu, we'll immediately go to Xixia and kill that bitch!"
Russell shook his head: "No rush, let's go tomorrow."
The Xingxiu Sect is like a demon-suppressing tower; every disciple in the sect is a wicked seed, and no amount of death is too much for them.
Either kill them all at once, or kill them one by one slowly. In short, don't let any of them escape, or there will be endless trouble in the future.
Those with strong martial arts skills and high status naturally escaped unscathed, but the surrounding common people suffered greatly.
"If you don't go, Grandma will go by herself." Grandma Tong was furious and immediately ignored Russell. Her true energy surged and she took a step to rush out of the courtyard.
Russell moved swiftly, blocking her path, gripping her shoulders, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Sister, I am the true leader of the Free and Unfettered Sect."
The old woman turned around abruptly, staring at Russell, her expression suddenly becoming calm: "Fine, fine, a sect leader indeed! Then let your senior sister see just how capable you are as sect leader!"
She had thought it through. If she didn't take this opportunity to teach this junior brother she had never met a lesson, he would cause a lot of trouble in the future.
Young man, it's good to suffer a little. Let your senior sister teach you what it means to respect your teacher.
boom!
With a muffled thud, a cloud of white mist exploded, instantly filling half the courtyard. The old osmanthus tree in the courtyard shook violently, its branches and leaves rustling down like rain.
The two figures suddenly joined and then separated, the swirling winds scraping away a layer of the bluestone slabs on the ground. Stone dust mixed with dirt, forming a turbid ring of air that spread outwards.
The petite figure flew backward through the air, crashing through the last remaining half of the corridor railing in the courtyard, and then slammed heavily onto the blue brick ground. The momentum continued, carving a deep trench several meters long into the hard ground, until her back hit the broken courtyard wall and finally stopped.
Her delicate, fair hands trembled uncontrollably, the surrounding air seemed to distort, and the expression on her face changed from cold to astonishment.
Master, where did you find this monster?!
Just now, she thought she had hit a bear that had been trained in martial arts, because the Xuanbing force couldn't penetrate her at all, and her arm was even numb from the shock.
If she hadn't temporarily channeled most of her strength into the ground with the Plum Blossom Hand, she would have been seriously injured by that single palm strike.
"Senior sister, can we have a proper chat now?" Russell then asked.
"Grandma's not convinced! Let's go again!"
The old woman went up!
The old woman typed "GG".
The old woman was not convinced and challenged her again.
Tong Lao typed GG again.
In the same small courtyard, a small figure with a bruised and swollen face sat cross-legged, one hand supporting his chin, casually wiping away the blood flowing from his nostrils, his face full of existential doubt.
That shouldn't be happening!
How come this kid is so good at fighting?
There is still some time before the day her power dissipates, which is the time when her power is at its peak. Even if Wu Yazi himself came, she was confident that she could withstand 1,200 moves, let alone this junior brother who only inherited Wu Yazi's internal energy.
"Boy..." Tong Lao was about to speak when Russell raised his hand: "Hey! Senior Sister, I didn't mind you calling me 'boy' before we fought, but now that you're all dead, shouldn't you change how you address me?"
"Sect Leader! Enough already!" Granny Tong glared at Russell, annoyed. "When I learned you were wanted by the Central Plains martial arts world, I prepared to go to the Song Dynasty to support you, and this is how you repay me?"
"Is that really true?" Russell was truly surprised.
"Otherwise, why do you think Grandma would come down from Tianshan for no reason?" Grandma Tong huffed angrily, then quickly revealed her true intentions: "Grandma won't pursue the matter of you repaying kindness with enmity, so you can't refuse Grandma's request for help."
"I guess it's about Third Senior Sister." Seeing that the little girl had calmed down, Russell sat back down in front of her and said cheerfully.
These two sisters have been fighting for most of their lives. It's always one of them trying to kill the other. They're the kind of people who will spare no effort to destroy the other if given even the slightest chance.
"Pah! Seducing the sect leader's personal disciple and attacking the sect leader, this kind of promiscuous slut dares to call herself a successor of the Free and Unfettered Sect. If I were you, I would immediately announce to the world that this slut has been expelled from the sect." Granny Tong spat. She had always looked down on Li Qiushui, and now she hated her even more.
After stabilizing her breathing, Granny Tong continued, "I've entrusted my life to you. If you don't help me, when I die and go to the underworld to see Master and Junior Brother, I'll definitely complain about you."
"What you're saying..." If that day ever comes, Xiaoyaozi will definitely be completely dumbfounded.
However, Russell was indeed not going to let Li Qiushui go.
Wu Yazi might not pursue the matter because of their marital bond, but as Tong Lao just said, her actions would be intolerable to any sect.
