The Return of the Greatest Sect Leader
Chapter 35 ~ Letters from City

The day continues.

Ever since the Mountain Road Sect took over the big businesses in Blue Cloud City, 10 days had passed. Every day the Sect Chief and the Elders seemed to be always busy. Gao Ming was rarely even seen watching the disciples' practice.

That was acceptable, considering they had to take care of the big businesses in Blue Cloud City. As a result, Li Yao became increasingly easy to organize the disciples. Moreover, Li Yao was also often given the responsibility to train disciples.

The exercises Li Yao gave off grew louder, each day their bodies were squeezed out with almost inhuman exercises. Surprisingly, their bodies never hurt.

The third level disciples were aware that Li Yao gave them a pill every 2 days. Perhaps that was the reason behind their significant body development.

Previously most third level disciples had thin and dry bodies, but now their bodies are more contained with trained muscles. They could feel their strength had increased.

That thought led them to train more vigorously. The only thing they never liked was the food at dinner, it tasted really bad.

They had to eat the bad food, because if they did not eat it, tomorrow morning they would not have the energy to exercise.

No one knew, however, that Li Yao had put such a precious resource into a dinner that they hated so much.

Li Yao's training also increased many times harder. From that day on, every night he practiced with Tao Yuhan secretly.

So too on this night.

The moon shone brightly, slightly reminding Li Yao of Tang Xinyue. After a fierce match with Tao Yuhan, Li Yao fell asleep on the grass while calming his chaotic breathing rate.

"Hey, aren't you seriously practicing your match with me?" li Yao said with a severed breath.

The sound of one's footsteps walking closer and closer then stopped, arriving beside Li Yao. Tao Yuhan immediately sat down and hit Li Yao on the head, it seemed that he had done so many times.

"I'm older than you, call me brother!" said Tao Yuhan coldly, her face flat as usual.

Li Yao rolled his eyeballs then spoke lazily.

"Is Brother not seriously competing with me? When Big Brother first faced me, I could feel Brother's slash more sharp and ruthless, Brother's sword was always eyeing the vital parts and prone. Not like now."

"Maybe it's just vinegar of your feelings" Tao Yuhan replied as she looked at the sky. His eyes were blank, he just followed Li Yao's eyes.

After being with Tao Yuhan for the past few days, Li Yao became more and more acquainted with her. One annoying thing about Tao Yuhan, she is a stubborn girl who cannot be interrogated.

Despite knowing his lies had been exposed, Tao Yuhan still insisted on defending his lies. It's as if he's shameless, or he just doesn't realize it. Maybe the girl was just stupid and too innocent

Even though Li Yao had never won arguing with him. Hence at this time, Li Yao relented and did not force her question.

"Where's your pet? I've never seen you visit him," Tao Yuhan asked curiously, she still remembered the reason Li Yao visited the forest behind the sect.

"Pets?"

On the other hand Li Yao had even almost forgotten about it. Three seconds into his memory, Li Yao finally recalled the lie he had spoken to the girl.

"She's just a stupid and innocent girl," Li Yao thought, her mouth quickly opened and then answered Tao Yuhan's question.

Of course, Li Yao lied.

***

It looked as if Gao Ming was frantically running towards the Sect Chief's room. By the time it was already noon, the sun was shining scorching on the mountain peak where the Mountain Road Sect was located.

"Chairman!" call Gao Ming after opening the door.

Tao Zhen looked at Gao Ming with an astonished look, it was not usual for Gao Ming to be agitated and barge in like this. The table in front of Tao Zhen was full of piles of papers, all of them were important documents relating to the businesses belonging to the Heavenly Road Sect.

Aware of his disrespect just now, Gao Ming lowered his head and apologized.

"Chairman, I'm sorry for my attitude just now!"

Tao Zhen nodded lightly.

Take a breath and then dispose of it regularly, Gao Ming did so for more than a minute. After he had calmed down somewhat, unceremoniously Gao Ming directly walked towards Tao Zhen then gave him a letter.

That letter was the reason behind Gao Ming's panic.

Without waiting for Gao Ming to explain, Tao Zhen had already opened the letter and read it. Instantly Tao Zhen's eyes instantly widened.

...

"Chairman, do we have to accept the request in the letter?" gong Yu asked seriously.

Right now Tao Zhen had already gathered all the Elders to discuss an important matter. Their language this time was related to the letter that Gao Ming had received some time ago.

"We have to accept it, this is our chance to refine the name of the Mountain Road Sect. If we refuse, then people will probably never trust our sect again!" said Ma Heng, as the treasurer he prioritized the profits of the sect.

"I don't agree! Who is the disciple we should send to complete this dangerous request? There aren't. Our disciple will only sacrifice his life in vain if we send him!" reject Fu Liu, he was the oldest in the place.

"But this is only our chance to recover the name of the Mountainous Road Sect," Ma Heng said, he really did not want to miss this opportunity.

Beside Tao Zhen, Gao Ming sighed at the debate between elders before him. The discussion is simple but quite difficult at the same time.

If it were to choose the opinions of the other elders, Gao Ming would prefer the opinion of Fu Liu. It makes no sense to send children to deal with such a level of danger.

"Chairman, how did you decide?" ask Gong Yu once more.

Gao Ming glanced at Tao Zhen next to him, it is time for the Sect Chief to make a decision on this matter. Now all the elders' gazes were fixed on Tao Zhen, waiting for him to open his mouth.

A moment Tao Zhen was silent, after 1 minute of silence he spoke.

"Maybe it's time I introduce her."

All the Elders were astonished by Tao Zhen's decision, especially Ma Heng and Gong Yu. Gao Ming silently thought about the decision of his Sectional Chief, it seemed like that decision was the best decision that the Mountainous Road Sect had.

"So we'll accept that request?" ma Heng asked after concluding Tao Zhen's words.

"Who should I introduce?" gong Yu asked in confusion.

***

Half the surface of the sun is sinking, getting deeper and deeper. A bright reddish light shone on the mountain peak, the place where the Mountain Road Sect had been built.

That view looks so beautiful.

Li Yao's footsteps were light as he walked in the courtyard of the sect, he was enjoying that short scene. No matter how bad life is under the sky, the horizon remains always beautiful.

In his heart Li Yao wished, may the sky never be tainted with human deeds.

After 10 minutes, Li Yao finally arrived in front of the Sect Chief's room. Some time ago he was told that the Sect Chief was about to meet him. The training was not even over, yet Li Yao was forced to come straight to this place.

Before Li Yao knocked on the door, his spine suddenly felt a sign of danger behind him.
