Lois started to cry uncontrollably.
"I need your help! It's Scott. I thought he loved me, but he cheated on me!"
"That's bullshit! Did you really think he loved you?"
a man butted in.
"Lois, when he pursued you to be his woman, everyone knew that Scott only wanted one thing from
you–the support of your brother, Gilbert."
He continued," Gilbert is the core disciple of our Peripatetic Sect. His cultivation base has reached the
advanced level of the Earth Realm. He is the number one among the young talents in Peripatetic Sect
and perhaps in the whole Violet Orchid Empire. Everyone knows that you are the most important
person in your brother's life!"
The Peripatetic Sect!
Austin was startled as the group turned out to be disciples from the Peripatetic Sect. No wonder they
had such solid strength.
Within the Violet Orchid Empire, there were five major sects, namely:
the Peripatetic Sect, the Flaming Sun Valley, the Joy Gang, the Bloody Hero Gang, and the Sun Sect.
Peripatetic Sect was the most powerful in terms of its strength. It was the only super sect in the Violet
Orchid Empire. It ranked number one among the five sects.
The Flaming Sun Sect outranked another three sects and came second in the empire in terms of
strength and power.
On the other hand, the Joy Gang, the Bloody Hero Gang, and the Sun Sect were equal in terms of
strength and power. Each of these sects had the power to limit or check the other two and this created
a balance between their individual powers.
At that moment, the man who stood under the tree continued," That bastard Scott, after he got you, he
received favors from Gilbert and gained a lot of benefits from it. Through the years, Gilbert has
provided him with countless resources for practice."
"But when Gilbert died off an illness, things have changed. He left you and quickly moved on with that
bitch Barbara. That is why he is the number one love rat in the world. Everyone in the Peripatetic Sect
thinks he's a jerk. But we can't just tell you those things. This is your personal matter and we have no
right to interfere."
Hiding at the tree, Austin raised his eyebrows when he heard this. 'Their relationship is surely
complicated. Gaining money by cheating, climbing up the career by relying on other's power and
influence. Interesting!' Austin thought.
Suddenly, Lois interrupted the man.
"Brothers, we have known each other for a long time. My brother Gilbert was good to you when he was
alive. Now, I have been abandoned by Scott like I am rubbish. And I wanted to take my revenge on
Scott for all the things he had done to me! I was hoping you could help me kill Scott."
"Ah?"
The three men gasped with astonishment.
"Lois, Scott 's cultivation base has reached the peak of the middle-level of the Earth Realm. Moreover,
his spirit of martial arts is so strong that he is able to comprehend the level three blade intent. We are
clearly no match for him," one man said with hesitation. From the tone of his voice, it was an
impossible task.
Tears started to roll down Lois' cheeks like a stream. Her continuous sobs broke the hearts of the men
with her.
"Nigel, aren't you also at the middle-level of the Earth Realm? You are at the same level as Scott, but
why are you so afraid of him?"
Nigel gave her a wry smile, his obscene face crumpled.
"Lois, I reached the medium stage of the Earth Realm by force through the help of some pills. My new
level is not very stable now. Scott, on the other hand, had reached the medium stage of the Earth
Realm one and half a year ago. If we get into a fight, I'm afraid that even three men at my level would
lose to him."
"Moreover, Barbara is always with Scott. They are inseparable. And Barbara has also reached the
medium stage of the Earth Realm several days ago. It's not easy to kill Scott alone, so I assume it
would be near impossible to even hurt him if he is with Barbara."
Hearing this, Lois looked more pitiful. With her puppy eyes, she said," Nigel, your cultivation base is at
the medium stage of the Earth Realm, while Elton is at the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm. Lyle,
on the other hand, is at the medium stage of Earth Realm. If the four of us join hands and give them a
surprise attack, don't you think we have the chance to kill them?"
After a pause, Lois winked her watery eyes and acted flirtatious, trying her best to seduce them with
her enchanting beauty. She made eye contacts with them, teasing them in every way she could.
"If you three collaborate with me to kill Scott, I will give myself to you. I'll do whatever you make me do."
Upon hearing this offer, all these three men's eyes brightened. They felt horny, their throat becoming
dry with the thirst for her.
"The three of us can play with you on the bed together. We can do foursome. That must be very
exciting! God, I feel so hard right now!" the man named Elton made lewd comments and laughed
erotically.
It seemed that Nigel and Elton would accept the offer immediately.
But the light in Lyle's horny eyes dimmed. He rolled his eyes as if something had dawned on him.
Although his strength was the lowest among the three, he was the smartest.
"Lois, we have fallen in love with you long ago. As you said, Gilbert was good to us when he was alive.
Now, you ask us a favor, and we have no reason to refuse you."
Lois beamed upon hearing him. Before Lyle could finish his word, her eyes flashed a vicious smile and
she chipped in," Since Barbara reached the medium stage of the Earth Realm just a few days ago, her
new level will be unstable. I, on the other hand, have been at the medium stage of the Earth Realm for
over two years. As long as we make the first move, we have a chance. I will focus on killing Barbara,
while the three of you can focus on Scott. I am confident that I can kill Barbara in a very short time.
Then I will help you with Scott."
But before Lois could finish, Lyle suddenly interrupted," Lois, please let me finish.
I know you already planned on this.
But please forgive me if what I will say would offend you. Before you were good with Scott, you also
had a love relationship with several other men."
"Your relationship with Scott was quite long, indeed. But you were never without a man. So why are
you so obsessed with Scott? Why are you so determined to get your revenge on him?
There are great risks in your plan, but you're willing to take it. You even want to kill Barbara, who is an
important figure in the sect. I'm sensing that there is more to this revenge than what you're telling us.
Lois, we will be more willing to take the risk and go with you if you tell us the real reason. Otherwise, I
believe it's best that you leave us out of it. You can find other people who are willing to help you."
His words made Nigel and Elton suddenly realize that the matter was more complicated than they had
thought. They all nodded in approval.
"I say I must agree with Lyle. You must have ulterior motives."
"You definitely know that Barbara's brother is also a core disciple of our sect. She is not someone we
can just trifle with. Why do you also want to kill Barbara? It must not be just because Scott cheated on
you."
Lois's face darkened as she gritted her teeth. After a while, she slowly said," Lyle, my brother once said
that you are a thoughtful and wise man. He was right. I admit that I hid something from you."
"And we have come to this stage that if I don't tell you the truth, then I'll be accountable for you."
"The truth is my brother didn't die of illness. Scott poisoned him!"
Lois gritted her teeth, her beautiful face twisted.
"What the hell? Scott poisoned Gilbert?"
The men were dumbfounded.
"Come to think of it. Gilbert is a medium stage Earth Realm cultivator and he couldn't possibly just fall ill
and die. So, it turned out that Scott did murder Gilbert!"
"Hundreds of years ago, our great grandfather was a master of the Imperial Realm."
"Imperial Realm?"
All the men, including Austin, were shocked upon hearing it.
According to legends, the Imperial Realm was a supreme level which could enable the cultivator to
control the forces of nature, and even to shake the heaven and earth.
Lois's great grandfather turned out to be a master of Imperial Realm. That was an amazing new
discovery!
"I swear it's true! My family had been very prosperous. It just declined because of some misfortunes.
And it was only my brother and me in the family now.
But there is a secret manual about the martial art that was handed down from our ancestors. It comes
with a dozen of middle-grade spiritual weapons and a top-grade spiritual weapon. Although I have
never studied the manual, the outline of the book says it is the seventh grade martial art."
A dozen of middle-grade spiritual weapons and a top-grade spiritual weapon, and a secret manual
about the seventh grade martial art!
These were the things that they had only heard in legends. The three men were not able to say a word,
but their eyes glimmered with greed.
"These things have always been kept by my brother. But the secret slipped out when I got drunk with
Scott. I didn't expect that he would be so unscrupulous. He found a highly toxic poison and poisoned
my brother and took the spiritual weapons and the secret manual."
The three men turned to one another with the same expression of dawning comprehension, and
surprise after the whole story sank in.
"Besides, as a core disciple of the Peripatetic Sect, my brother has accumulated a fortune of more than
one hundred thousand vital energy crystals over the years. But now, all the spiritual weapons, the
secret manual, and the vital energy crystals were taken away by Scott."
The men's cheeks were aflame upon hearing Lois. Their breathing became faster and they exchanged
glances. They each saw the endless greed in one another's eyes.
