Jack turned, his demeanor instantly shifting as he sized up Alex.

Puffing out his chest like a blowfish, his fists clenched, and his eyes narrowed with hostility.

"So, you're the one extorting and harassing my sister, huh?" Jack sneered.

"Let me warn you: a pathetic man like you had better stay away from her. Keep pestering her, and you’ll be digging your own grave."

Alex snorted, amused.

    “You call yourself my elder?” Alex laughed.“Don’t make me laugh. You came here with killing intent. You wanted to burn this entire garden, cut off our arms, and even kill us if we refused to obey.”“What kind of elder would do that? All I see is an enemy,” Alex said, shaking his head. “And I have no mercy for my enemies.”“Please,” Elder Tong begged. “We are all disciples of the Wudang Sect. There is no need to be so heavy-handed. Please give me the antidote.”He could already feel his cultivation beginning to dissipate, and if this continued any longer, he would soon reach the point of no return.He would lose his chance to remain a cultivator forever.Alex shook his head. “If I showed mercy to every enemy I had, I would have died long ago.”“This world has karma. You chose your actions. Then accept the consequences. You chose to make me your enemy. Then I am your worst nightmare.”Alex raised his hand. “Brothers! These people came here intending to cut off our arms and punish us fo

    Elder Tong swept his gaze across the surroundings, and for the first time, a flicker of shock crossed his face. The air was thick—unnaturally so. Mist coiled and twisted around them like something alive, swallowing the land in silence.“Everyone… this is an illusion formation.”His voice cut through the haze with certainty. He had seen too many traps like this to be deceived for long. Still, the scale of it… was impressive.“I’ll lead the way. All of you—follow me!”His shout rang out as his inner force surged. Power gathered within him, dense and violent, before erupting outward in a single, crushing strike. The force tore through the mist like a blade, scattering it in all directions.In an instant, the illusion shattered.Blue sky returned.Clarity returned.And there—standing at the front—was Jun Jiu.Elder Tong’s eyes sharpened. “The illusion is gone. Attack!”The command exploded into motion.Hundreds surged forward at once, their killing intent flooding the air as they charged

    The Discipline Department had been in the middle of a meeting, but the atmosphere felt less like governance and more like a battlefield on the verge of eruption.One of the three elders—Elder Tong—sat rigid in his seat, his face flushed with fury, his voice sharp enough to cut through steel.“We must not tolerate this,” he thundered. “Capture that Jun Jiu immediately. And as for those from Thousand Herbs Peak who dared lay hands on our people—if they refuse to submit, then we burn the entire peak to the ground.”“Elder Tong,” another elder spoke, his voice calm yet laced with quiet disapproval. It was Elder Guo. “How can you treat them as enemies? We all belong to the Wudang Sect.”Tong’s head snapped toward him, his eyes sharp and filled with hostility.“Those unruly fools?” he said coldly. “They are not part of the Wudang Sect.”“Just because you are from Sword Peak,” Guo continued, his voice steady, “doesn’t mean you must blindly support them. Have you even looked into the cause of

    By the next day, word of the incident had spread across the entire sect—the Thousand Herbs Peak disciple who had crippled four members of the Discipline Committee was all anyone talked about.Within Thousand Herbs Peak, the reaction was immediate and unified. They stood behind their own.“How can a Sword Peak disciple cut off one of ours’ arms,” one disciple demanded bitterly, “and when we retaliate, the Discipline Committee suddenly says we’re the ones at fault?”“They should be investigating Sword Peak instead,” another snapped.“Exactly.”A third lowered his voice, glancing around. “But haven’t you heard? More than eighty percent of the Discipline Department… they all come from Sword Peak.”“That’s true,” someone else agreed. “Sword Peak dominates everything—tournaments, inter-peak battles. They specialize in combat. They’re always the strongest.”“Not like us,” another muttered. “We study medicine, herbs, formations… other paths. No wonder the Discipline Department always takes th

    On the descending path of Thousand Herbs Peak, six outer disciples from Sword Peak made their way down the mountain, their laughter echoing through the quiet air.“Turns out Jun Jiu’s name was just hype,” one of them scoffed, grinning.“Pathetic,” another added. “He surrendered the moment he heard we were coming to test him.”“Senior brother,” a third chimed in with a smirk, “this is Thousand Herbs Peak. They’re just a bunch of herb-obsessed nerds, gardening and brewing pills all day. What would they know about real swordsmanship?”“Exactly,” someone else said. “That disciple had no idea how powerful Sword Peak truly is. And he still dared to challenge us?”“Oh, come on,” one of them laughed, nudging his companion with a crooked grin. “They’re so weak—even if Jun Jiu showed up, he’d just lower his head and lick our shoes.”“Yeah,” another voice cut in mockingly. “And that idiot friend of his—what was his name? Lu Piao? Lost his arm trying to protect that coward.”The group burst into

    It took less than a week for the story to spread.By the time it did, there wasn’t a single disciple in the sect who hadn’t heard it—Jun Jiu had crushed Hou Mei in the competition.The tale moved like wildfire through the Wudang Sect, growing louder, sharper, more exaggerated with every retelling.No one could fully agree on what had truly happened in that fight. The outcome itself had been… unclear. Messy. Controversial.But one truth refused to be ignored.Jun Jiu had never been defeated.And that alone was enough.The Wudang Sect stood across thirteen towering mountain peaks, ten of which housed the major departments. Among them was the Thousand Herbs Peak.Soon, the top five disciples from each peak would gather.They would fight.The rankings of the outer disciples would be decided in that battle—and with it, the allocation of resources for the entire year. Support. Supplies. Influence.Everything was on the line.And Alex… was already at the center of it all.These days, wheneve
