The Return of the Greatest Sect Leader
Chapter 25 ~ Ghost Girl

The commotion was certainly visible from the room of the sect leader. Not long after the horde barged in, Tao Zhen along with an Elder immediately rushed over to them.

The elder was named Ma Heng, he was an elder of the Mountainous Road Sect who took care of financial matters. In other words, the sect treasurer. Ma Heng walked behind Tao Zhen's back, following his sect head.

They heard when an 8-year-old boy scolded the mob. The group was silent, embarrassed and did not know what to answer. The sight made Tao Zhen and Ma Heng astonished.

"What's the problem with you guys breaking into here?" tao Zhen asked as soon as he arrived in front of the horde.

"Don't pretend you don't know, Chief!" said one of the men in the mob. They quickly ignored Li Yao who looked extremely frightening.

"Let's talk about it inside!" dao Zhen said to them.

"No need! We'll just talk here! After all we'll only be up here for a little while" replied the man, a fat, glamorous-dressed man who looked like the leader of the mob.

"Over one month we've given the Chairman time. When exactly did the Chief intend to pay the debts of the Mountain Road Sect?" asked the fat man cynically.

A debt? Li Yao tilted his head. Don't tell me, this fragile Mountain Road Sect has a lot of debt. It was impossible, Li Yao tried to deny what he had just heard.

"We still can't pay it now? Please give us some extra time!" reply Tao Zhen, feeling helpless.

"S*****!" curse Li Yao inwardly while patting his forehead. It turned out that it was true, this dilapidated sect had a lot of debts.

"That's not what we can do Sect Chief. Your debt has accumulated too much" said the fat man as if he had to.

"But given our good relationship during this time, we will give the Chairman an additional week! If within one week the Chairman remains unable to pay, then we are forced to confiscate the Mountainous Road Sect!"

"So then, they were the merchants who had businesses in the Blue Cloud City."

Today's training is over. After they were inside the dormitory, Li Yao summoned Chang Fen to explain the debt problem that befell the Mountainous Road Sect.

Currently Li Yao was listening to Chang Fen's explanation. Chang Fen explained the state of the Mountainous Road Sect as a whole. There is something strange in his explanation. The curious Li Yao then asked the oddity.

"Aren't all of those businesses the businesses owned by the Mountain Road Sect? There is no way our sect owes any debt to a shop or business that from the beginning did indeed belong to our sect!" li Yao asked in astonishment.

"Sister, where did you hear that false information? If those businesses do indeed belong to our sect, our sect will not look this poor," Chang Fen replied, not believing what Li Yao had said.

"Is that possible?" li Yao muttered softly. After hearing Chang Fen's explanation, Li Yao had some conjectures about what had actually happened.

When the Heavenly Road Sect was destroyed and filled only by children, the people ordered to manage those businesses would definitely try to make the business their own.

The Heavenly Road Sect was extremely helpless, let alone the parchments that were proof of ownership of those businesses were scorched in flames.

Now that those people wanted to take over the Heavenly Road Sect, they were completely shameless.

"That's called a high-interest loan. So if you give a loan with a very large interest, as long as they do not pay then the interest will continue to run. The interest will grow greatly after some period of time has passed, until the amount is much greater than the amount of money that has been loaned," Chang Fen explained at length.

"Basic*******!" swear Li Yao, unable to resist his frustration. On the other hand, Chang Fen suddenly felt panicked and frightened when he heard Li Yao cursing.

***

Li Yao took out a dark green-colored robe from within his spatial ring. It was a leaf fairy robe, a medium-level earth heirloom. Although it was called a robe, it was actually a piece of dark green cloth.

As Li Yao enveloped his body with the cloth, the cloth in an instant instantly moved and turned into a robe that covered his entire small body.

There was a place that Li Yao wanted to visit, which was why he wore the robe. The cloak is very light, warm, does not tear when exposed to ordinary iron slashes, can hide the air of existence, and can float when falling from a height.

Sneaking out from inside the dormitory, Li Yao hurriedly stepped his feet towards the back of the sect. Behind the Mountainous Road Sect, there were some extremely steep hills, ravines, and vast expanses of forest.

Upon arriving at the edge of the abyss, Li Yao immediately jumped up. As a result of wearing a leaf fairy robe, Li Yao fell down very slowly as if her body was flying.

Li Yao's journey so far has gone very smoothly. Not long after Li Yao hastened the fall of his body, he finally arrived at a vast expanse of forest.

The forest had not changed for a hundred years, it was still left as it was. Li Yao continued his footsteps. Five minutes passed, he arrived in front of a small pond and saw a little girl in a shower.

That cute girl looks 13 years old. Behind the girl's back, there was a simple little house. The house looks like the girl's residence.

Who's that little girl? Why was he in the woods alone? Li Yao realized that the girl was no ordinary girl. The existence of the girl was not at all felt. Even after seeing his figure, Li Yao still could not sense the air of his existence.

That sweet little girl looked like a ghost.

Li Yao turned around, feeling strange as he had long enough peeked at a little girl who was soaking. Who is the identity of the girl? Li Yao could look for him later. Now there's something he has to do.

As soon as the little girl appeared beside Li Yao then lashed out a punch, the girl had put on a towel to cover her naked body.

If not for his body's reflexes, Li Yao would have already been hit by that blow. So fast! How could the girl suddenly be beside herself, Li Yao was completely unaware of it.

"Who are you?" asked Li Yao.

The little girl did not ponder Li Yao's question. He continued to attack with incredible strength and speed. The movements of the girl's body were also flexible, Li Yao was very troubled to face every attack he launched.

Li Yao realized that if he was not serious, then he would most likely be defeated. The towel of the girl immediately slid, not being able to withstand every crack done by her body.

The naked body of the girl was now fully exposed. Li Yao subconsciously instantly turned his face away from the sight. The little girl's face remained calm and cold, as if not caring about the embarrassing incident just now.

The girl's fist floated then landed on Li Yao's jaw. Li Yao's body immediately flew up, circling in the air before finally falling splattered on the ground. Li Yao had lost his consciousness.
