Chapter 10: The Cruel and Ruthless Little Jin Protects His Master

  "Squeak...!" Sun Tao was pulled away by the thin outer door disciple, and Xiao Jin suddenly bared his teeth at the thin youth, making a strange "squeaking" sound. His paws made a series of random swipes in mid-air, as if to say, "Don't come any closer, or I'll bite you!"

  "You..." was pushed away by that thin and weak outer sect disciple, Sun Tao's heart was filled with rage. A lowly outer sect disciple actually dared to bully him, an inner sect disciple. In Yunlan Sect, outer sect disciples would always lower their heads when meeting inner sect disciples, showing respect. This lowly outer sect disciple actually dared to attack him, wasn't this going against the natural order? Did he think himself a useless waste? For a moment, Sun Tao's face turned pale with rage, and all he could say was "you", his words filled with extreme anger.

  "You? What are you? Aren't you just a useless waste that can't cultivate? If it weren't for the fact that you're wearing the uniform of an inner sect elite disciple, I'd really think you were a scallion. A useless waste like you, if the thunderstorm from a few days ago hadn't almost killed you... Without a useless elite disciple like you, there would be one more spot available in this year's outer sect competition for an inner sect disciple."

  Sun Wei was so angry that his face turned pale and he couldn't say a complete sentence for half a day. The slender outer sect disciple was relentless, scolding Sun Wei with a barrage of words like a machine gun, directly treating him as if he were worse than a pig or dog.

  "I'm trash, you dare to say it again? My Sun Tuo is not trash. As long as I am still an inner disciple, I am not trash. I am fundamentally not comparable to a lowly outer disciple like you." Sun Tuo's eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, as if he had gone mad. He hated it the most when others called him trash. Before his dantian was crippled, he was also a cultivation genius, and was fundamentally not comparable to these lowly outer disciples. It was really a case of a tiger falling into a pit and being bullied by dogs, and now even stray cats and dogs dared to come and bully him. Suddenly, he let out a hysterical roar at his opponent.

  "You're not trash, Sun Tao is an elite inner disciple, you're not trash. If you keep saying you're not trash, then come and compare with me, an outer disciple, to see if you're really trash."

  "You think you can intimidate me? Bring it on!" Sun Tiao replied without hesitation. Although he knew it was the other person's provocation, he had to grit his teeth and accept the challenge. A man has to live with dignity, what's the worst that could happen? Just a few days in bed.

  "With guts, tsk... With guts, was this trash struck by lightning or something? Today, it actually dares to challenge us. In the past, wasn't it always tail-tucking when seeing us? How come today it dares to call out to Liang Chao? Zhang Yue looked at the scene of swords drawn and couldn't help but be surprised with a tsking admiration. Could it be that this trash found some backing within the sect and is no longer afraid of them?"

  Sun Tuo's anger burned, and he was about to fight with the opponent without any scruples. That Liang Chao, an outer door disciple, suddenly became somewhat timid. In the grand hall, in front of a large crowd, fighting with fellow disciples was a serious crime, and if caught by the high-level leaders of the sect, they would be severely punished. Whatever grudges there were between Yunlan Sect, it was always settled privately in secret places where no one else was around. Few people dared to make a move on this Pearl Peak. At this moment, seeing Sun Tuo accept the challenge, Liang Chao looked at Zhang Yue with some confusion.

  "What's the fear? This waste wants to compete with you, just fight him. We'll all be witnesses for you, this isn't a personal grudge, but a mutual competition between fellow disciples."

  "Sun Tuo, I'm right, aren't I? This is Big Brother teaching Little Brother how to cultivate, isn't it?" Seeing that Liang Chao's face showed a difficult expression, Zhang Yue's face turned stern, and then suddenly changed the subject, smiling at Sun Tuo.

  "If you want to hit me, then hit me. Are you a coward who's afraid of punishment from the sect? I won't say anything more!" Sun Tao sneered with a scornful smile.

  "Since Sun Tuo has said so, Liang Chao, why don't you go and learn from your senior brother Sun Tuo's clever moves?" Zhang Yue commanded with a strange smile.

  Liang Chao is a cultivator of the fourth layer of Qi Refining, while Sun Tao is a waste with no cultivation at all, his Dantian destroyed. How could he possibly be Liang Chao's opponent? In Liang Chao's eyes, Sun Tao was bound to suffer another brutal beating today! Without even using his flying sword or any other artifact, Liang Chao simply took a step forward, circulated the true yuan in his body to his hand, and walked towards Sun Tao with an air of complacency. He made a beckoning gesture, as if he were a senior brother guiding his junior brother in cultivation. His disdainful gaze seemed to say: "Come on, waste, I can knock you down with just one hand."

  Sun Tuo was a hot-blooded young man, and when had he ever been so ignored by others? In an instant, he gritted his teeth and launched himself at Liang Chao with fists flying, his movements bold and unrestrained, displaying a certain air of a martial artist.

  "Let's see how I'll break it." Sun Wei made a side kick, and a palm knife was aimed at Liang Chao's vital points. Liang Chao sneered coldly, without foundation, the fierce moves were useless. The true yuan in his body surged, his hand lightly swung, one foot kicked out, easily resolving Sun Wei's attack. Then another palm print flew towards Sun Wei's chest, and instantly Sun Wei was struck flying away.

  In the face of absolute strength, all sorts of fancy attacks are useless. Struck by Liang Chao's palm, Sun Tao only felt a sweetness in his heart, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. He was suspended in mid-air, with crimson blood spraying wildly, staining his collar red. It turned out he wasn't even an opponent worthy of the other's first move.

  "Humph! Trash, trash is just trash, can't even take one of my moves!" With one move, Sun Tao was beaten to the point of vomiting blood and unable to get up. The mocking expression in Liang Tao's eyes grew even thicker as he fiercely spat a mouthful of saliva at the fallen Sun Tao.

  "Rustle..."

  Sun Tuo was wounded, just as everyone was about to mock Sun Tuo, the little monkey Xiao Jin suddenly bared its teeth, revealing a fierce glow in its eyes. It let out a strange cry and pounced on Liang Chao, biting him with its mouth open wide. With claws and teeth, Liang Chao was caught off guard and scratched by Xiao Jin, leaving a deep gash on his face that exposed bone. Blood flowed profusely from the wound, and Liang Chao's face contorted in pain as he let out an inhuman wail, a mournful cry that sent shivers down people's spines.

  "Damn it, bastard, is this monkey crazy? How dare he bite people randomly, get out, get out of here quickly."

  A shrill cry of despair echoed through the empty courtyard, as Liang Chao kicked and punched at Xiao Jin, who was clinging to his chest. Xiao Jin, driven mad by Sun Tao's severe injury, ignored Liang Chao's blows and bit down on his body with razor-sharp teeth that glinted in the cold light. The wound on Liang Chao's chest was a bloody mess, with fragments of flesh hanging from Xiao Jin's mouth. Liang Chao was terrified, his soul shaken, as he cursed and screamed in anguish.

  "Hurry, hurry and get this little beast off him, or Liang Chao will be bitten to death!" Large chunks of flesh were torn off by the small golden claws, and Liang Chao was now like a bloody man, with a strong smell of blood filling the air. Despite having a powerful cultivation, Liang Chao couldn't use his powers to shake off the small golden monkey that was clinging tightly to him. In just a few moments, Liang Chao's breathing became weak and his face turned pale. Zhang Yue, who had been leading the group, was now stunned, thinking that he was only trying to teach Sun Tao a lesson by catching this cute little monkey, but didn't expect things to turn out like this. This seemingly gentle and clever little monkey was actually so ferocious, not weaker than those large carnivorous beasts. Panicked, Zhang Yue ordered his followers to rush over.

  "Bite, bite him to death! He dares to scold me as a waste, bite him, bite him hard!" Sun Wei endured the pain in his chest and crawled up from the ground, seeing that Xiaojin was scratching and biting Liang Chao with a pleased expression, shouting loudly.

  "Ah...!" The sound of Sun Tiao's cheers, that little Jin was even more energetic. Liang Chao could only roll on the ground non-stop, in pain, heart-wrenching pain, so painful that he wanted to faint, but couldn't.

  Liang Chao was bitten to the ground, that little golden dog had no intention of stopping, it arched its back and clawed and bit, until a sturdy young man with a true yuan in his foot kicked him away. He jumped onto the wall head, his eyes flashing with fierce light, waving his bloody paws at the crowd in the courtyard, brandishing them triumphantly without stopping.

  "Wu Fan, quickly save the person, and you others quickly catch this vicious monkey for me." Liang Chao was rescued, his chest and face were a mess of blood and flesh, and he couldn't see any human appearance, with white bones exposed, the injury was extremely terrifying, if not treated in time, he would have fallen here. Zhang Yue took out a bottle of wound-healing medicine and threw it to the sturdy young man called Wu Fan, then ordered the other outer door disciples around the courtyard: "This little monkey must be killed today, it's actually being bullied by an animal, if this gets out, how can I, Zhang Yue, survive in Yunlan Sect?"

  As soon as Zhang Yue's voice fell, Zhang Yue also joined the ranks of capturing Little Jin. As for Sun Tao, the mastermind, they were put aside and all their attention was focused on that little monkey, Little Jin.

  The monkey is naturally agile, its body extremely flexible. In the courtyard, there are several pieces of bamboo, a few cypress trees, and some small pines. The little monkey uses these as cover, jumping around in the woods, on the walls, and snatching pinecones to throw at Zhang Yue and others who have surrounded the area from all sides. Stones fly through the air, and the entire courtyard is like a big show of chasing and fleeing. Four or five young men shout and curse, angrily pursuing a thin little monkey, causing chaos everywhere. Just as they were about to corner the little monkey in one corner of the courtyard, it suddenly jumped into the bamboo forest on the other side. From time to time, it would come back and steal a peach, making its opponents retreat in fear.

  "With flying swords and magic, quickly kill this little beast!" Several times, Zhang Yue was surrounded and intercepted, but Xiao Jin dodged agilely each time. Zhang Yue couldn't care less that this was the Zhuyue Peak of Yunlan Sect, where one couldn't casually use magic, and irritably ordered his several followers to attack.

  As soon as Zhang Yue's voice fell, several outer door disciples who had been surrounding them from all sides reached for the storage bags at their waists, activated their true yuan, and urged their flying sword artifacts to attack Xiao Jin. In an instant, the quiet small courtyard was filled with various rainbow lights flashing, flying artifacts flying horizontally, all involuntarily attacking Xiao Jin.

  This little monkey, Xiao Jin, was just a small ape summoned by Sun Wukong from the Journey to the West world. He might not even be considered a minor demon, but his body was quite agile and he understood human nature. At first, he showed a very brutal side, grabbing Liang Chao and injuring him. This was all because of an unexpected encounter, catching the opponent off guard. However, at this moment, Zhang Yue and the others were clearly annoyed by Xiao Jin, each using their true abilities. Several rainbow lights flashed by, and Xiao Jin's golden fur had several bloody marks on it. If he hadn't been agile and used tree branches to block, the previous fierce attack would have taken his life. His slightly brutal eyes looked at Zhang Yue and the others with a hint of fear, no longer as reckless as before!

  "Xiao Jin, come back quickly!" Zhang Yue and the others used their flying sword artifacts. Sun Tao knew how formidable these flying sword artifacts were, and such an attack was not something Xiao Jin could handle. Afraid that Xiao Jin would fall into Zhang Yue's evil clutches, Sun Tao hastily called out to Xiao Jin who was hiding in the bamboo forest.

  "Think you can run? No way, you've hurt someone and now you want to just walk away? There's no such cheap thing in this world. Today, this little beast must die." As soon as he heard Sun Tao's call, Zhang Yue couldn't help but sneer, his eyes flashing with cold light, his speed increasing by several degrees. The little monkey who had just jumped down from the bamboo forest was again forced to retreat repeatedly by the flying sword, and several more sinister wounds appeared on his body, with crimson blood gushing out, extremely miserable, it could be said that he was covered in injuries.
