Chapter 113 The Black Stone Sect is far too arrogant
"My lord, look, this is a good thing I found down the mountain, its quality is absolutely top-notch."
One of the bandits grabbed Chu Luobai's chin and forced her to raise her head.
"Aren't you currently worried about not having a high-quality container?"
Chu Luobai obediently raised her head in response to the other person's movement.
Their gazes were unabashedly fixed on the young man on the platform.
His black Taoist robe made his body appear even thinner.
His face was extremely pale, but his lips had an eerie crimson hue.
The cave was small, and it was lit entirely by torches on the walls.
In the flickering firelight, Chu Luobai could sense many people dressed as bandits hiding in the shadows.
However, the only one with cultivation in the entire cave is the one on the platform.
"Sir, would you like me to inspect the goods now?"
Seeing that the young man on the stage did not speak, the bandit grinned and reached for Chu Luobai's clothes.
Swish!Swish!
A flash of silver sword light streaked past.
pat.
A long, yellow object fell to the ground.
Then, blood gushed out like a bursting fountain.
"what!!!"
The bandit lay on the ground, clutching his right hand which had been cut in two, and let out a bloodcurdling scream.
The bandits behind Qiu Lin's expression changed, and just as they were about to make a move, the scene in front of them suddenly spun around.
The enormous head rolled several times on the ground before falling completely silent.
For some reason, the bandits hiding in the corner remained motionless.
Even the young man sitting in the high position simply watched this scene with a calm expression.
"He didn't even react when his own men died right in front of him."
"This sir is truly cold-blooded."
Chu Luobai gently wiped the blood off Lingxiao and released her spiritual power to begin exploring her surroundings.
This person, whom the bandits respectfully addressed as 'Sir,' was only at the mid-stage of the Refining Spirit realm.
Such a low level of cultivation is simply not enough to be considered among the disciples of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
But in this remote and small sect, it was already enough for them to act arrogantly and domineeringly.
"Other disciples, leave now, and I will not pursue the matter further."
Chu Luobai concealed her aura very well, and the young man opposite her could not determine her cultivation level at all.
"Is this how the Black Stone Sect treats its guests? Although it is a reclusive sect, it is a bit too cold to issue an order to leave as soon as it opens its doors."
Chu Luobai's expression remained indifferent.
To put it nicely, the Black Stone Sect is a hidden sect; to put it bluntly, it's just that it's too weak to compete with other sects, so it hides itself away somewhere.
The town of Blackstone, teeming with bandits, was able to exist for so long only under the protection of the Blackstone Sect.
Otherwise, other sects would have wiped out this bandit den long ago.
"The affairs of my Blackstone Sect are none of your concern..."
Before the young man could finish speaking, he saw a long sword rushing straight toward him.
He subconsciously raised his hand and waved it, trying to use his spiritual power to deflect the longsword.
But he found that the spiritual energy shield in front of him was like a block of tofu, easily sliced open by the longsword.
The young man quickly got up and hid to the side, his face instantly turning gloomy.
"Who exactly are you? Are you a Void Refinement cultivator?"
"Didn't your sect's elders teach you that it's very impolite to ask about other cultivators' cultivation levels when you're out and about?"
"You'll easily get beaten up."
Chu Luobai's lips curled slightly, a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes. The Lingxiao sword moved according to her will, constantly forcing people back into a corner.
"Tell me, what kind of vessel are you using to keep seeking out young men and women?"
The young man stared intently at Chu Luobai with a sinister look in his eyes, and after a long while, he suddenly gave a mocking laugh.
"You must be a disciple from some major sect, coming down the mountain to gain experience and try to show off your heroism."
"Killing disciples from other sects can cause serious problems."
"Do you dare to kill me?"
Chu Luobai raised his hand and thrust his sword into the young man's right shoulder.
"From now on, I'll ask questions and you answer; don't waste my time."
The young man gasped, the pain causing his pupils to dilate suddenly. He tried to circulate his spiritual energy to resist, but found that he couldn't even move a finger.
An extremely powerful spiritual force, like a giant net covering the sky, bound him tightly.
In that instant, Qin Xiao felt as if he were prey trapped in a spider web.
All that can be waited for is death.
"What's your name, and what's your connection to the Black Stone Sect?"
Chu Luobai posed the first question.
Qin Xiao gritted his teeth, staring intently at the woman in front of him, determined not to utter a sound.
"Hard bones?"
Lingxiao, which had pierced Qin Xiao's shoulder, spun around violently.
In an instant, a huge bloody hole appeared in Qin Xiao's left shoulder.
Cold sweat poured uncontrollably from Qin Xiao's forehead, as if he had been soaked in water for a while.
Do I have to ask again?
"If you attack directly, you're probably not from some demonic cultivation sect!"
Qin Xiao hadn't expected that Chu Luobai, a woman, would be so ruthless.
This behavior is completely unlike that of someone from a reputable family.
They're more like those ruthless demonic cultivators!
"If you say so, maybe I am?"
Chu Luobai expressionlessly pulled out Lingxiao, and crimson blood spurted out instantly.
Immediately, Lingxiao pierced Qin Xiao's right shoulder.
"you!!"
Qin Xiao let out a scream, trying to faint, but the pain forced him to stay awake.
Excessive blood loss caused his vision to blur.
A tremendous sense of crisis and panic enveloped his heart.
He could sense that Chu Luobai truly wanted to kill him.
Do you want me to ask a third time?
Chu Luobai's long, slender fingers rested lightly on the hilt of the sword, as if she were considering whether to stab a hole in Qin Xiao's right shoulder as well.
The moment he met that mocking, bloodthirsty gaze, Qin Xiao felt his body begin to tremble uncontrollably.
"My name is Qin Xiao, and I am an elder of the Black Stone Sect."
"A mere mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator dares to be an elder? Your Black Stone Sect is truly..."
Chu Luobai shook his head speechlessly, his disdain in his eyes undisguised.
"My second question is, what are you arresting young men and women for?"
"What should be used as a container?"
The bandit had previously used the excuse that Chu Luobai was a superior vessel to curry favor with Qin Xiao.
Throughout our journey through Blackrock Town, we didn't see a single woman from the moment we entered the town.
There were no elderly women to be seen; all that could be seen were men.
Clearly, Qin Xiao intended to do something with those women's bodies.
"This is a secret of my sect. I'm just an elder, how could I possibly know?"
As soon as Qin Xiao finished speaking, a burst of spiritual energy struck his right leg.
Click.
It was accompanied by a crisp sound of bones shattering.
Qin Xiao's right leg instantly assumed a bizarre angle, completely unlike anything a normal person could achieve.
"Answer me, don't ask me questions in return."
Chu Luobai's eyes turned slightly cold.
She's been causing a ruckus in the cave for so long, yet the Black Stone Sect hasn't reacted at all.
Do they feel safe on their own turf and that no one will dare to oppose them?
