147 Chapter 147 (1/2)

Tang Xinyue stopped for a beat as she looked at the black haired beauty before her.

Ze Min has just arrived 3 years ago and her rise in the ranks of the Demonic Sword Sect has been nothing short of unbelievable.

From the bottom of 1st Stage of Mortal Shedding Realm up until the Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm which was her cultivation today, Inner Disciple Ze Min has only used three short years in bridging the gap between them.

One should know that Tang Xinyue has been cultivating for more or less 80 years already.

To say that Ze Min's meteoric rise was uncommon in this continent was pretty much an understatement of the century.

Alas, what was only weird was how smitten Ze Min had become unto Tang Xinyue.

The latter had of course slapped this lewd behavior coming from the same sex but Tang Xinyue could not even best Ze Min in battle after she'd arrived at a level similar to hers.

In the end, Tang Xinyue could only endure the constant pest in the form of the equally beautiful and capable Inner Disciple Ze Min.

”It seems like you are fated to be disappointed, Ze Min. As you can see, I am nothing but a mere possession for others pleasure already. Starting from today, Tang Xinyue is just a toy.

It's funny, isn't it? How the heavens can sometimes play with our insignificant lives?”

Tang Xinyue smiled and caught up with the slow convoy of steps that exited the grounds of the Inner Disciples Court. A breath later, Ze Min followed closely behind in silence.

More than five minutes of slow walk and the team has finally arrived back in the Outer Disciples Court.

If truth was to be told, there was really not much difference between the two disciples' court aside from the power level of cultivators that resided in both places.

The same boring figures of sharp sword-like buildings together with decorations that depicted nothing but more swords were present in the scenery at the moment.

It did not take long before Clark and his unique set of party members entered the Training Hall which was eerily quite similar to the last one they have been to.

”AHHHHHHHHH!”

”I GIVE UP!”

”STOP!” On the field, there were many disciples that were busy training in pairs and some of them showed no mercy whatsoever to their counterpart.

Short of incurring deaths and mutilation between sparring partners, the picture on the ground was indeed a bloody melee that would only produce the most terrible and toughest of disciples.

Most of the participants in the grand skirmish were only at the 1st to the 5th Stage of Mortal Shedding Realm.

Our bored gamer has only given the mad event with a peripheral curiosity and nothing more. But the same could not be said to the two innocent souls that followed them in their journey.

”But... I can't see if i d...” Lian Ah trembled as she spoke these words out. She just could not take her eyes off of the gory view that affronted her sight at the moment.

”Just do it!” Lian Li admonished and the younger Lian Ah could only nod in understanding. She trusted her older sister the most in this world and believed that nothing could wrong to them.

Alas, it was sad that Lian Li felt the exact opposite at the moment.

'Was my decision to follow Young Master Clark the right one or have I doomed my sister and i into a life of further violence and death?'

Lian Li mused in silence and then quickly shook her head to discard these useless thoughts aside. It was already too late to regret her choice.

And so Lian Li could only take her Lian Ah's hands in hers and led the closed eyed younger sister far and away from this sad practice of pointless conflict.

Lian Li had one wish in her heart and that was to protect her sister Lian Ah from the cruelty of the world.

'Let me be the one to see the ugly side of life for the both of us, Lian Ah.' Lian Li vowed and continued the return trip with a heavy heart on her chest.

”So how was it, Young Master Clark?”

”Did you get the girls that you wanted?” Elder Chang Tu asked but did not have to wait for any answer whatsoever because he could determine well enough about the added number of the group.

”Ahhhh... It seems that you have found two lovely ladies to accompany you in your quest to the peak. May these women give you eternal vigor and determination, Young Master Clark!”

”If you have any need for more bed warmers then you only need to ask and the Demonic Sword Sect will supply you with more!”
