135: in spite of

Soon, Du Xian started fighting with the other Inner Sect Disciples, but with only Nascent Soul Cultivation, how could he be a match for these Inner Sect Disciples? He was pinned to the ground and beaten in minutes.

"Hmph, an overestimating piece of trash. What Cultivation do I have, and what Cultivation do you have? I said a few words to you, and you actually dared to argue with me."

That Inner Sect Disciple wiped the blood from his fist, a look of disdain on his face, and let go of the bruised and swollen Du Xian.

"The Chief treats me very well; I will never allow anyone to slander the Chief!"

Du Xian climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from his nose, and glared fiercely at the Disciple in front of him.

"Hehe, trash will always be trash. Even with Cultivation now, you're still trash, a deserter who fled the battle, bah!"

That Disciple spat fiercely on the ground, looking at Du Xian with provocative eyes.

Du Xian fell silent, then flames directly rose from his body.

The two roommates watching were stunned by the scene before them. They also looked down on Li Haotian and had been enjoying the argument.

Just now it was only a brawl, but now Cultivation Techniques were being used directly. This changed the nature of the situation.

"Apologize."

Du Xian's cold gaze fell on the Disciple in front of him. At this moment, he was ready to burn his Lifespan.

Even if he died here today, he would protect Li Haotian's reputation. Although Li Haotian himself didn't care, he couldn't not care.

Ever since he joined Spirit Gathering Peak, everyone treated him like family, whether it was his Senior Brother, Senior Sister, or Li Haotian.

Spirit Gathering Peak was like a second home to him. If anyone dared to call them deserters or traitors, his Cultivation was given by the Chief. Although the other party didn't admit he was a Personal Disciple, he had long regarded the other party as his Revered Master in his heart.

He didn't mind defending his Revered Master's reputation with his life.

Seeing him get serious, with a desperate stance, that Inner Sect Disciple immediately swallowed, his eyes darting around.

He only had Soul Transformation Cultivation. Du Xian had powerful Cultivation Techniques and methods. The previous brawl was because Du Xian's Physical Body strength was inferior to his, which was why he was at a disadvantage. If it came down to a life-or-death fight, he might not lose.

"I'm telling you, don't mess around. Many Disciples from our Tiger Howl Peak have come this time."

The Disciple's face turned ugly as he took a step back. At the same time, the other two roommates in the room also stood up, scrutinizing Du Xian, as if they would all rush forward if he dared to make a move.

Seeing this, that Disciple immediately felt more confident. Could three against one still not win?

Du Xian stretched his limbs and repeated his words from earlier.

"Apologize."

But the other party looked at him as if he were a clown.

"Boom!"

A huge roar appeared on the Spirit Boat. All the Disciples were startled, and the accompanying Great Emperor Old Ancestor also extended his Divine Sense, discovering that two Disciples were fighting internally.

He was currently sitting in the top-floor room, and beside him was Lin Tianxuan.

This guy had shamelessly begged Lin Tianxuan to guide his Cultivation, which was why the two of them were alone.

"Your Spirit Gathering Peak Disciples and Tiger Howl Peak Disciples have started fighting."

The Heavenly Profound Sect Old Ancestor frowned.

"You Cultivate. The Young Master will handle this matter himself."

Lin Tianxuan saw that Li Haotian had already moved and knew that they didn't need to interfere.

The Old Ancestor nodded repeatedly, as obedient as a kindergarten child.

Li Haotian walked out of the room, yawning. The outside was already crowded with people, but no one stepped forward to stop them.

Zhang Hai and Su Yao were also attracted by the sounds of fighting. They pushed open the door and came out, their faces full of confusion, looking down.

On the Spirit Boat deck, three people surrounded and attacked Du Xian. No one present intervened; everyone was watching the show. Li Haotian also did not interfere but quietly watched the scene unfold.

Du Xian disregarded defense and injuries, grabbing one person and pinning them to the ground, beating them to death. The flames rising from his body tightly embraced the opponent, and no matter how painfully the opponent screamed, he would not let go.

The other two frantically attacked him.

Du Xian gritted his teeth and endured, looking like he was fighting for his life.

One of them was beaten so badly that his teeth scattered all over the ground, and he completely fainted, losing his combat ability. Then Du Xian stood up, his pupils stained red by the opponent's splashing blood.

At this moment, he was like someone who had fallen into madness.

"This..."

The remaining two roommates were scared and took two steps back. This Nascent Soul seemed different from the Nascent Souls they had faced before.

Both of them looked up at Li Haotian, who was watching from the top floor.

"Please, Chief, punish this Disciple! He disregards Sect laws, fought with other Disciples not in the martial arts arena, and even severely injured the other party!"

Li Haotian glanced at the two and found it somewhat amusing.

"Why didn't you stop earlier? Now that you can't win, you're scared? Don't tell me no one noticed when you started fighting. I was already here. I didn't interfere then, and I certainly won't interfere now."

"Could it be that you two, seeing you couldn't win, wanted to seek the help of Sect laws? When they first started fighting, why didn't you come to me? Now you want to find me, it's too late."

After Li Haotian's words fell, another Disciple's scream rang out. Du Xian furiously unleashed his full power, continuously consuming various Medicinal Pills. Other Tiger Howl Peak Disciples wanted to step forward to stop him.

"Stop! Since the Chief is biased towards Spirit Gathering Peak Disciples, then we, Tiger Howl Peak Disciples, will seek justice ourselves!"

A group of Tiger Howl Peak Disciples clamored, preparing to rush into the middle of the battlefield, when two figures suddenly appeared in front of them, standing quietly.

The moment the two appeared, the Tiger Howl Peak Disciples, who had just been full of Aura and arrogance, were stunned. A chill suddenly spread from their feet to the top of their heads.

"Try to move."

Zhang Hai and Su Yao looked at them with smiles as they stretched their limbs.

They hadn't met Du Xian and didn't know his battle achievements, so they naturally dared to mock him.

But these two in front of them were ruthless individuals who could kill quasi-Emperors!

After the Sect Extermination War, Su Yao was given a new nickname by the Sect Disciples: Fiery Dragon Mother.

Despite being a woman, her temper was incredibly fiery. Once attacked, she would definitely retaliate fiercely. If anyone dared to touch her, she would bite off a piece of their flesh.

In that battle, the Hundred Ghosts Sect Saint was even scared and dared not actively attack Su Yao, fearing that being the first to act would make him the first target to be killed.

The Tiger Howl Peak Disciples' mouths twitched, and they swallowed, then silently retreated to their original positions. The two also did not help Du Xian, merely standing by and watching.

The entire deck became Du Xian's personal show.

Relying on his Nascent Soul strength and powerful Cultivation Technique, he single-handedly fought against two opponents, beating them unconscious and also shattering all their teeth as punishment for insulting Li Haotian.

"Inner Sect Room 528, four Disciples fighting internally. Go to the Law Enforcement Hall yourselves to receive punishment."

Li Haotian saw the battle end, spoke in a calm tone, then turned and returned to his room.

Su Yao and Zhang Hai immediately stepped forward, taking out many Medicinal Pills to feed Du Xian. The others also dispersed upon seeing this. Without a doubt, Spirit Gathering Peak's reputation for being protective of its own would spread rapidly.
