Primordial Cultivator

Walking in the spacious hall, Yang Wei was awestruck by the sudden decoration that seemed to be copying from a courtroom.

'This feels more like a modern world now.' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly as he saw the rows of seats available for people to sit in.

As Yang Wei admired the scenery that he was familiar with, multiple footsteps could be heard from afar.

"Yang Wei, you really know how to make a lady wait." Elder Shan's voice resounded the room.

Behind her were two disciples guiding a handcuffed Elder Guo in chains.

Yang Wei was dumbfounded as he noticed the chains were emitting a dim blue light.

Elder Shan noticed his eyesight as she explained kindly to him. "Those chains are special-made, used for restricting a cultivator's spiritual qi."

"Restricting a cultivator's spiritual qi?" Yang Wei took a step back unconsciously.

Those chains' effects had made him recall last night where Su Mingxia restricted his movement with a snap of her finger.

Even now, he still didn't understand what Su Mingxia had done to restrict his movement and what those strands of spiritual qi represented.

Meanwhile, Elder Shan narrowed her eyes suspiciously at Yang Wei's movement.

"Why are you so afraid of those chains?" Elder Shan teased as she walked closer toward him.

She then whispered softly, "Could it be… you were restrained by a similar thing previously?"

Yang Wei sweated profusely as he held a gawking expression at Elder Shan.

"That expression of yours is betraying you~," Elder Shan giggled as she sniffed some perfume from his clothes.

"I can smell Su Mingxia's lingering perfume from you even though you had tried to wash them off." She added.

Yang Wei was dumbfounded as he swallowed nervously. 'Elder Shan's instinct… isn't it too frightening?'

Sometime later, Elder Shan shrugged her shoulders as she walked toward the highest seating and winked at Yang Wei.

"Have Elder Guo walked over to the center as we shall now punish him according to the sect rules?" Elder Shan went from a teasing tone into a cold and harsh tone.

The two disciples that were dragging Elder Guo quickly abided her command as they kicked Elder Guo onto the floor.

Once he knelt on the floor, Elder Shan showed a cold expression as she snapped her finger and Elder Guo was now allowed to speak.

"I'm still a sect elder no matter what you say, Elder Shan. How can you treat me like this?" Elder Guo roared as soon as he could talk.

Elder Shan ignored his roaring as she glared at the disciple. "Dump the evidence out for the almighty Elder Guo to see."

The disciple nodded his head as he retrieved multiple documents before throwing them on the floor.

Elder Guo sneered inwardly. 'Just wait till the grand elder comes and rescues me, Elder Shan. How dare you detain and treat an elder like me in this way?'

However, his expression paled when he glanced down at the documents that the disciple had thrown.

"H-How is this possible?" Elder Guo muttered as he glanced at the evidence stating that he had been colluding with other people to sell modified pills.

The worst part wasn't over when his name was connected with the notorious Tang Xin that everyone in the cultivation world despised.

Elder Guo began panicking and shaking as he tried to run away but Elder Shan snickered at his action.

"After roaring so energetically, you want to run away?" Elder Shan giggled as she slammed her hand midair.

Suddenly, a large and transparent palm appeared on top of Elder Guo's head as it slammed onto him.

BAM!

Elder Guo collapsed on the floor with some blood leaking out of his mouth.

His limbs seemed to be dismembered in the meantime since Elder Shan didn't hold her strength back from that palm of hers.

"This is why you shouldn't run away once caught." Elder Shan stood up as she glanced at the bloody mess of Elder Guo. "After all, there's no way to hold back our strength when we're catching a criminal that deserves death."

Yang Wei glanced at the current situation in confusion. 'Why did Elder Shan call me over for a testimony when it has been decided already?'

"Elder Shan… cough, you can't kill me." Elder Guo vomited a mouthful of blood as he tried to reason with Elder Shan.

"The grand elder would definitely not allow you to kill me off in the sect."

"Indeed, the grand elder had warned me not to kill you at any cost." Elder Shan nodded her head.

Elder Guo's expression brightened as he struggled to get up. Although he looked heavily injured, his cultivation base was high enough.

Hence, he wasn't in any life danger despite Elder Shan's ruthless palm strike at him.

"Heh, I'm glad you realized that I'm untouchable in the sect." Elder Guo laughed menacingly.

"Yes, truly untouchable." Elder Shan shrugged her shoulders as she turned around and stared at Yang Wei.

"Follow me, Yang Wei, my job is done here." Elder Shan then said, and she proceeded to drag Yang Wei away.

Sometime later, Elder Shan let go of his arms as she looked at him amusingly.

"You're not curious about my words at all." Elder Shan said as she continued, "Could it be that your mind is only focused on bedding those lovely ladies that you couldn't care less about Elder Guo?"

"You can stop teasing me already, Elder Shan." Yang Wei smiled bitterly as he cupped his fist.

"Please spare this junior's life." He pleaded for mercy.

Elder Shan laughed as she curled her lips upward. "You want me to give you mercy about your ambiguous relationship?"

Yang Wei nodded his head.

"Then tell me, why did I injure Elder Guo and leave him alone afterward?"

Yang Wei sighed softly as he tilted his head. "I don't look like a fool right?"

Elder Shan smiled, "Just answer me instead of avoiding it."

"Sigh, the grand elder that Elder Guo has been shouting for is most likely the person that will finish him off."
