The Return of the Greatest Sect Leader
Chapter 40 ~ Young Master Deformed

"Cheng Lei, your attitude has still not changed." Deng Xue looked unhappy to meet his old friend.

After the boy fell down because Cheng Lei relaxed his grasp, the boy was about to go on the run but Cheng Lei very quickly caught him back.

"Cheng Lei, quickly release the child!!" said Deng Xue angrily, Cheng Lei ignored his words then brushed off With Xue's hand from his shoulder.

"Why should I take it off? The thief seemed to have to be punished so that he wouldn't steal anymore" Cheng Lei retorted.

"The boy has returned your things!" exclaimed Deng Xue, he tried to remind Cheng Lei.

"Cheng Lei, don't overdo it! If you still remember the teachings of the White Sea Monastery, let him go!"

"The White Sea Monastery? You who have been expelled have no right to say it!"

Cheng Lei's sentence just now caused Deng Xue to go silent, she did not know what to say for Cheng Lei to release the poor little boy.

Seeing Deng Xue helplessly made Ceng Lei happy. The situation is now reversed with the former.

"The manager of Blue Cloud City said that I should meet someone named Deng Xue. I thought it was someone else, but apparently it was really you. It's a nice meeting, isn't it?"

"Cheng Lei, what do you want?" deng Xue asked as she gritted her teeth.

It was strange to see a burly man like Deng Xue being bullied.

"Why do you care so much about an obscure thief like him?" Cheng Lei sneered.

"Oh, you were like this a long time ago."

Despite being silent, Deng Xue remained calm.

"Kneel down! Maybe I'll let go of this thief if you kneel to me" Cheng Lei said sarcastically.

Deng Xue's eyes stared fixedly into Cheng Lei's eyeballs filled with disdain, he could not see the compromising space inside there.

Cheng Lei while smiling sinisterly waited for Deng Xue to kneel his head. Feeling no choice, Deng Xue knelt before Cheng Lei.

"Wow, you've really lost your pride!" cheng Lei exclaimed, still dumbfounded to see a person like Deng Xue kneel to him.

"Now cut all your hair!" cheng Lei's word is merciless.

Deng Xue looked at Cheng Lei with a look of disbelief.

"Are you jealous of my hair? Don't tell me your purpose"

"Shut up!" snapped Cheng Lei with a flushed face.

"All of our students know that you joined the White Sea Monastery because your head went bald early" explains Deng Xue.

Cheng Lei's secret had apparently been revealed for a long time, that fact made Cheng Lei's anger even bigger. Cheng Lei subconsciously let go of the child's hand and then intended to hit Deng Xue.

The boy left, after seeing Deng Xue's gaze which implied that he was quick to escape. Deng Xue was relieved that the child had drifted away, it seemed that Cheng Lei already did not care about the little boy.

When Cheng Lei clenched his hands and intended to hit Deng Xue, a soft voice suddenly came from the 2nd floor of the Rongrong Inn. The voice came from Ren Shun, he was standing on the balcony in front of the inn observing the situation on the street.

"Please don't make a fuss on this street!"

Deng Xue's head immediately lowered, he greeted respectfully after finding Ren Shun's figure in front of him.

"The sky bless you!"

Unlike Deng Xue, Cheng Lei was only shocked to not believe the young man was in this city. There was no respect on Cheng Lei's face, all there was was was a condescending expression.

"What is that Young Master with Disabilities doing in this city?" cheng Lei's Murmur.

Instantly an extremely dense killing intent pressed down on Cheng Lei's body and soul. He could feel every inch of himself crumbling, being crushed without having a chance to fight back.

All to be honest Cheng Lei bristled and broke out in cold sweat. His body trembled so tensely, his legs lost strength and then flexed, finally Cheng Lei lethargicly fell down.

That terrifying killing Eve instantly disappeared. Cheng Lei frantically glanced in all directions, looking for the source of the killing air just now but he did not find it.

"Dissolve!" begging Ren Shun, he wanted Cheng Lei to stop bullying Deng Xue.

Cheng Lei looked at Ren Shun with a probing glance, did the killing intent just come from the secret guard of the Young Master of the Heavenly Alliance? That was the only plausible reason Cheng Lei could find.

Upset at his displeasure, Cheng Lei attacked Deng Xue using the golden-colored Qi that came out of his body. Deng Xue's body was struck against the wall, Cheng Lei chuckled softly then walked into the Rongrong Inn.

Ren Shun's head shook his head, he felt sorry for Deng Xue and Cheng Lei as well. Cheng Lei's actions were indeed despicable, but he would soon get his reward.

"You should have kept your attitude when dealing with Young Master!"

The voice was like a razor forced into it through his ears, thin and sharp. Cheng Lei could feel his brain being attacked with tremendous pain. When Cheng Lei turned around, he could feel someone had disappeared from behind his back.

That feeling is not foreign.

Suddenly Cheng Lei fainted, after which he could not bear the pain that spread throughout his body.

***

It could be guessed very easily, if Li Yao managed to defeat the four arrogant young men. They could indeed not compare to Li Yao, even if their cultivation levels were much higher.

They both immediately left the four young men who were fainting. Li Yao and Tao Yuhan continued their initial goal of visiting Deng Xue - the suburban tavern owner, to get information about the monsters roaming the outskirts of the city.

Arriving in front of Deng Xue's tavern, Li Yao and Tao Yuhan saw a group of people coming out of the seemingly closed tavern.

"Sir, is this shop closed?" li Yao asked.

"Yes!" the man replied honestly, he stopped his footsteps before answering Li Yao's question.

"Is the owner having business?" Li Yao asked again.

"Deng Xue went to the market to shop, but on the way home she met with misfortune." The man explained.

"He was looking for trouble with a swordsman from the White Sea Monastery. The swarmer beat Deng Xue unconscious and battered."

The first person to appear in Li Yao's mind upon hearing the explanation was Cheng Lei, that pesky bald uncle.

Who else besides Cheng Lei, the swordsman of the White Sea Monastery that now existed in the Blue Cloud City. Li Yao had already beaten up all four of his disciples so it was impossible for them.

After a brief questioning and thanking that person, Li Yao and Tao Yuhan entered the tavern as well as the house that Deng Xue lived in.
