The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

It was obvious that Lao Ba's whole body was full of flaws, but when he was staring at her, Zhu Ying suddenly had an illusion that she was being stared at by a flaming lion wrapped in flames.

She wanted to resist, but the calm eyes made Zhu Ying feel an inexplicable desire to retreat.

She seemed to have... hit a wall.

"To play tricks and be mysterious."

The masked man swung the scimitar in his hand and rushed forward, approaching Lao Ba and said cruelly, "Let me test how much weight you have!"

"Xiaoxuan! Come back!"

Zhu Ying hurriedly shouted to stop him, but the masked man had already attacked Lao Ba, swinging a scimitar and smashing him on the head.

clang--

The clear sound of metal clashing resounded all around. The scene before their eyes really shocked the bandits present and made them dumbfounded. The masked man even stared with his eyes wide open, as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes full of disbelief.

“How…how is this possible?!”

The masked man's voice was trembling when he said this, and the huge scimitar hit the raised index finger of Lao Ba's right hand without missing a beat.

However, no matter how hard the masked man tried, the scimitar seemed to stop there and could not go any further.

Without even a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation, he withstood the attack of a Kaihai Realm cultivator with just his physical strength?!

No, that's not right!

Zhu Ying narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at Lao Ba's fingertips. Suddenly, she discovered that a part of Lao Ba's knuckles was stained with a little silver luster and was as hard as gold and stone.

It was this metallic, silver finger that blocked the masked man's powerful slash.

"Could it be... that this person is a Huaqiao realm cultivator who has hidden his strength?"

Zhu Ying became suspicious and felt that something was wrong.

The desert bandits were horrified. It was said that each realm had its own level of heaven. These desert bandits had followed Zhu Ying for many years, and the strongest enemy they had encountered was no more than the Huaqiao realm. As for the powerful masters in the other shore realm, they dared not even think about it!

Hua Jingchen seemed to have anticipated this, shaking his head and sighing, "Just try it, and you'll die if you try~"

Before the masked man could react.

The silver streak at Lao Ba's fingertips spread rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, covering his entire right arm.

"What...what kind of trick is this?!"

Even though the masked man was wearing a veil, the younger brothers could see that he was confused. They asked why he was so confident, because they were also confused.

Lao Ba only used a little strength, and the masked man with trembling arms knew it.

This is someone he can't afford to offend!

bang——

Lao Ba pushed away the scimitar in front of him and responded with a real iron fist, hitting the masked man in the chest.

The seemingly insignificant punch caused the masked man's internal organs to shift and he started coughing up blood instantly. He was as if hit by a speeding carriage and was blown away by a huge force.

"Second Chief!!!"

The desert bandits screamed in surprise and used their bodies to form a wall to welcome the masked man who was flying backwards.

Then, a burst of wailing sounds rang out, and the bandits who used their bodies to catch the masked man were smashed all over the place, just like birds in the same forest that fly away when disaster strikes. They all fell to one side and groaned in pain.

After a successful attack, Lao Ba did not pursue the victory. He then turned his head to look at Zhu Ying, who was looking fearful. He removed the iron enchantment covering his right arm. As his thumb and index finger rubbed together, a faint flame slowly rose...

If the punishment just now was just a minor one, then this time it was serious.

"Senior! These are ruthless executioners. Show no mercy!"

Hu Yanming excitedly put his hands together to his mouth, happily adding fuel to the fire.

"Okay, you should keep some too."

Hua Jingchen lowered his voice, "Don't you think that the fact that the Black Demon Hall could find them doesn't mean they don't have any redeeming qualities? Besides, Zhao Zhao also said that the leader of the Desert Bandits has connections in the Central Plains... Even though she knows who we are, she still acts so arrogant. It's very likely that she is a descendant of the Immortal Family disguised as a Desert Bandit!"

"What's going on?"

Hu Yanming looked at Hua Jingchen with a strange expression: "People from the Central Plains can rob others of their property at will? People from the Central Plains can trample on others' dignity at will? People from the Central Plains can take others' lives at will and avoid being punished by thunder?"

"That's not what I meant..."

"I tell you!"

Hu Yanming snorted, his eyes darkening as he said, "In this world, it's not the one who is right who is right. The one with the bigger fist is the one who holds the final say!"

"Why does this sound weird..."

Hua Jingchen muttered to himself, then explained, "You misunderstood me. Lord Mu Youli may be strong, but he's not yet invincible."

"If that leader Mo Fei is truly a disciple of the immortal family of the Central Plains, he must have a life-saving trump card given by his master... just like you."

Hua Jingchen looked up at Zhu Ying and said thoughtfully, "Even I have the strength of the Kaihai Realm. This person is either extremely powerful or has a certain status. If we kill him here, it is hard to say whether he will retaliate... just like you."

"Uh, what do you mean by 'just like me'?"

Hu Yanming said unhappily, "I admit that I have many life-saving trump cards given by the Supreme Elders and the Sect Master, but I earned them through my own strength!"

"Also, according to our sect's rules, any disciple who is training outside and hasn't sent a 'Thunder Message' to the sect is deemed to have signed a life and death agreement. Their life and death are entirely up to them, and the sect will not provide any assistance."

"Even if I underestimated my enemy and was killed, it was because I was inferior in skill. The sect will never send anyone to seek justice for one person, not even the Holy Son!"

The thunder message of Mingshen Sect is equivalent to a means for disciples to ask for help, and the choice is up to the disciples themselves.

Moreover, each disciple has only three opportunities in his lifetime to ask the sect for help.

During the period between sending the thunder message and the arrival of the sect's reinforcements, the Naruto disciples still need to rely on themselves to fight for survival time. Once they die, they will be treated as inferior to others in skills, and the sect will never seek justice for them.

But if the sect's reinforcements arrived and the other side still killed the disciples who had sent thunder messages back to the sect, the result would be completely different.

The former is a test for disciples of Mingshen Sect. If one passes the test and waits until reinforcements arrive, it proves that the person is qualified to become a disciple of Mingshen Sect.

Killing Mingzong disciples in public is undoubtedly a challenge to the dignity of the entire Mingshen Sect!

The consequences are so severe that the crime...should be punished!

Although this method is cruel.

But the weak...are not worthy of staying in Mingshen Sect!
