From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Chapter 70 Tan Kun

They wanted to stand up, but the force holding them down was still there.

"You..." one of them didn't want to give up, struggled and tried to rise.

He started to sense Zhao Qing Ying's gaze upon him.

The air around him began to feel different.

He couldn't see it, but he could feel that swords were all around him.

The cold and deadly blades resting on his skin.

If he moved any further, the swords would slice him up into pieces.

Zhao Qing Ying's aura of oppression was too much for him.

"Be calm, let the Dao be harmonized. Ming Ye will show us the truth."

Qing Yang Zi motioned for Ming Ye to start.

With the formation array ready, Zhao Ming Ye performed what he had previously done with his memory recall formation array.

After the Storm Fist Thunder sect members saw the images from Low Tian's last few moments, they were speechless.

"That Skin Puppet Diao shall pay for what he did!" Low Qiang shouted and slammed his fist on the table.

He stood up, clasped his hands together and bowed, "I apologize for my rashness, Sect Master Qing Yang Zi. To think I've stepped into his trap so easily."

Low Qiang started to feign ignorance and tried to brush off any suspicion.

"Hmph. Easily, or you wanted to?" Zhao Qing Ying wasn't having any of it.

"Qing Ying, now's not the time. We have more important things we need to handle first."

Worried that Zhao Qing Ying might do something rash, Qing Yang Zi quickly reminded him of what was to be done next.

Zhao Qing Ying got the cue, side-eyed Low Qiang, twitched his nose and kept quiet.

Trembling inside, Tan Fei knew exactly what they meant by something more important to handle.

"Sect Master Low Qiang, I'm sorry but Qing Feng sect won't be able to host you overnight. Perhaps you might want to leave now."

"I understand, Sect Master Qing Yang Zi."

Low Qiang instructed his men to carefully take over Low Tian's head, and the whole of Storm Fist Thunder sect got going.

With the Storm Fist Thunder sect gone, Qing Yang Zi could finally turn his focus on Tan Fei.

"Tan Fei! Colluding with outsiders to bring forth the downfall of Qing Feng sect, do you admit your guilt!"

Zhao Ming Ye and Han Dang lunged at Tan Fei, trying to pin him down onto the ground.

"What guilt! Where's your evidence!" Tan Fei shouted as he reached into his sleeves and took out a bottle of pills.

This was his last chance; if he took what was inside, he might have a chance.

But before he could do so, Zhao Qing Ying, with his hands shaped like a sword, swiped across and a slicing wave followed.

Tan Fei's fingers were sliced off and the bottle dropped.

Its red stopper fell off, and a putrid smell slowly filled the air.

The so-called Nine Turn Qi Concentration pill from the Dark Envoy.

Trying very hard not to puke, Zhao Ming Ye and Han Dang caught hold of Tan Fei.

Grabbing his hands and pushing him down at his shoulder blade.

Finally, they got him.

Just when they thought everything was over, someone else came into the room and lunged at Tan Fei.

He was too fast; Zhao Qing Ying with his twirling wind strike shot at him, but it could only penetrate through the skin of the man.

Thud!

The man landed a palm on Tan Fei's forehead.

Soon after, Tan Fei's head splattered into pieces.

Sending pieces of flesh, blood, and skull splattering all over the place.

The man then turned and knelt in front of Qing Yang Zi.

He cried out loud and said, "Sect Master, I'm so ashamed to have let this traitor in the Alchemy Peak for so long. Any punishment you deem fit, I will accept it fully."

The man was Tan Kun, Alchemy Peak lord.

"You! Who let you destroy his brain!" Zhao Ming Ye shouted at Tan Kun.

"Silence!" Qing Yang Zi shouted.

"But Sect Master, he..."

Before Zhao Ming Ye could go on, Qing Yang Zi stared at him, and he kept quiet.

Zhao Qing Ying shook his head and walked out.

He couldn't stand Qing Yang Zi's way of doing things.

If you will it, then it too is the Dao's will!

How could you be Wu Wei when you consider so much?

Zhao Qing Ying would've killed Tan Kun on the spot.

And whatever comes next from the Tan family, he would kill them all.

"Sect Master, I beg you for your punishment; wouldn't want those related to the Tan family to think they could do whatever they want in the sect," Tan Kun kowtowed and said.

Thud.

With a muted thud, his forehead went red with blood slowly oozing out of his wound.

He continued and said, "I might need to continue to help with healing the emperor's concubine though..."

"I will punish according to the sect's rules. How is the emperor's concubine?" Qing Yang Zi asked.

He knew what Tan Kun was trying to do.

Threatening him with the emperor's concubine's life.

Even though Qing Feng sect was the largest in Quan Dynasty, the emperor's support was crucial for all the resources required to cultivate.

"I will give you a list of those involved in Tan Fei's plan. Get rid of them and all the cultivation resources will be stopped for Alchemy Peak for a year," Qing Yang Zi said.

This was the best he could do.

Asking Tan Kun to kill off some of the Tan family's men and stopping the cultivation resources.

Tan Kun kowtowed again and said, "As it should be. I will personally kill those involved. Thank you, Sect Master, for being so merciful."

...

Next day.

Million Sword Hall.

Zhang Xi went and visited Qing Yang Zi.

He was with Zhao Qing Ying, having tea and trying to talk some sense into Zhao Qing Ying.

But Zhao Qing Ying was trying to do the same.

They couldn't convince each other and just drank their tea quietly.

"Sect Master, I have a favor to ask."
