Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Faced with such a sudden attack, it was clearly impossible not to suffer a defeat.

Baili Yanliang, who had retreated more than twenty meters, glared fiercely at Xu Yao.

"You're such an annoying jerk. You want to hit me again? Do you know what happens when you make me angry?!"

"I'll take your life!"

After saying that, Baili Yanliang was about to attack Xu Yao.

At that moment, Xu Yao let out a cold laugh.

"You have already lost, Baili Yanliang."

"What did you say? Are you out of your mind?!"

"Really? Then you should take a good look behind you."

Upon hearing this, Baili Yanliang quickly turned his head to look.

Five whirlwind arrows suddenly appeared behind him in his field of vision.

"Wind-blown Arrow, move!"

At Xu Yao's cold shout, the five whirlwind arrows hurtled towards Baili Yanliang.

Upon witnessing this scene, Baili Yanliang's pupils suddenly contracted.

At that point, he had no time to dodge and could only let the five whirlwind arrows fall on him.

Several soft, sizzling sounds rang out in succession.

Five bloody holes were immediately ripped open in Baili Yanliang's body, and blood gushed out from them continuously.

Baili Yanliang was also unable to move due to such a heavy blow. He stared fiercely at Xu Yao in front of him, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"You bastard, how dare you do such a thing to me! I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Yao kicked Baili Yanliang to the ground.

"What do you mean, 'you'? Just lie down obediently. You're trying to renege on your bet after losing?"

Baili Yanliang, who had been kicked to the ground by Xu Yao, let out a muffled groan.

He clenched his fists in anger.

What was happening before my eyes was simply unbelievable.

I am a dignified eighth-level Qi Refining stage cultivator, yet I lost to a fourth-level Qi Refining stage cultivator in such a way.

This is the ultimate humiliation! It will absolutely become a laughing stock!

No matter how angry he was, he couldn't control his body anymore, and he was completely unable to do anything to Xu Yao.

At that time, Langya, who witnessed the scene firsthand, was also filled with shock.

"Is this for real? Am I dreaming? Is this even possible? This is too unbelievable..."

The man beside him was trembling violently.

"Monster! This guy is a monster! Even the guild leader, who is at the eighth level of Qi Refining, is no match for him. How are we supposed to fight him? Aren't we doomed?"

At that moment, a young man walked in.

Judging from the aura emanating from him, he was undoubtedly an elder.

The young elder walked over and stood in front of the broken door, knocking a few times into the air.

"Is anyone home? I'm coming in."

After saying that, the young elder walked in on his own.

"Oh my, look at this place, it's quite lively."

"What are you doing?"

Xu Yao glanced at the young elder and honestly told him the whole story.

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, the young elder nodded repeatedly.

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone else present was trembling with fear.

After Xu Yao finished speaking, none of them dared to look at the young elder; they simply knelt on the ground.

"Elder, spare me! Elder, spare me!"

"Elder, we disciples were blinded by greed for a moment. We promise that we will never do such a thing again."

"Elder, it's me too. Please, please let us go this time."

Hearing what these people said, the young elder shook his head.

"A death sentence may be avoided, but punishment is inescapable."

"If it weren't for Xu Yao's influence, I really wouldn't have known that there were people like you in the Qingyun Sect. You are truly disgusting."

"I will now punish you. From this moment on, you are no longer disciples of my Qingyun Sect, and your cultivation abilities will be permanently stripped away."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young elder swiftly launched attacks on the disciples' bodies one after another.

The disciples who were photographed all collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood, their faces contorted in agony.

Their dantian has been destroyed, and they will never have any chance to cultivate again in this lifetime.

The young elder waved his hand.

"Alright, now pack your things, you can leave the Qingyun Sect. But remember, your names will be forever etched on the pillar of shame of the Qingyun Sect."

These people, their faces ashen, stood up sadly and left in a disheveled state with stiff steps.

Looking at these defeated people, Xu Yao turned his gaze to the young elder.

"Elder, I'm curious, how did you get here? Was it a coincidence?"

"Pretty much. I happened to hear the sounds of fighting when I was passing by, so I came over out of curiosity. I never expected something like this to happen."

"By the way, my name is Lin Tianhu, you can call me Elder Lin."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao immediately bowed to Lin Tianhu.

"Disciple Xu Yao greets Elder."

Lin Tianhu wasn't one to put on airs, and he walked out chatting and laughing with Xu Yao.

After seeing Xu Yao off, Lin Tianhu began to make his own plans.

I accidentally got closer to Xu Yao today, and I wonder if it will increase the chances of Xu Yao becoming my disciple in the future. Thinking about it, I'm actually a little excited.

……

The past few days have passed without anything particularly noteworthy happening, except for my cultivation practice.

On that very day, a lively discussion had already taken place among the new disciples.

It turned out that the Qingyun Sect had issued a bounty.

Moreover, it was a bounty mission specifically designed for new disciples.

Since they are new disciples, in order to take care of them, these bounty missions are not very difficult, and most of them are about solving some troublesome things down the mountain.

These tasks were undertaken by people from the foot of the mountain who specifically came up to ask for help.

It's posted for all tasks that aren't urgent.

Furthermore, the Qingyun Sect will provide an additional reward based on the bounty mission's reward, using their own money.

In this way, increasing the rewards can greatly enhance the disciples' enthusiasm for participating in tasks.

Just then, a number of disciples had gathered around the quest board, all eager to find a quest to reap the benefits for themselves.

However, the task posted at the very top remained untouched.

That's understandable, since everyone is quite clear about their own strength.

"Heh, this highest-level mission is pretty good; it's actually a Spirit-Attracting Grass."

"Tsk tsk tsk, eating this can increase my cultivation speed for seven days, plus the sect will also give me one, which is equivalent to almost half a month."

“What a pity.”
