Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "While it's true that I can't defeat the cultivators of the First City, I also don't fear them either! Any powerful enemy is my stepping stone towards greatness! So what if it is the First City? If I ever become afraid of an organization, I'll never be able to experience any form of growth for the rest of my life."

The Medicine Sect's disciples felt a sense of enlightenment when they heard her words.

They had all encountered similar situations at some point and they would flee if they ever faced an enemy who was far too powerful. Not one of them has ever used this as motivation to become better! If someone no longer has any enemies, their level of power would remain at a standstill for the rest of their life!

There was nothing to be afraid of when one faces a powerful enemy! It all depends on your choices!

"Elder Huang, don't you feel any shame?" Gao Lin sneered and a hateful light flashed across his elderly features, "You're both mainly at fault in this matter. Firstly, you had falsely accused the Gu girl. The Gu girl has produced the evidence yet you still don't admit defeat? Huang Feifei's powers are now severed and this is in accordance with the agreement made during the wager. What crime has the Gu girl commited that you would want to have her killed?"

"Hehe," Elder Huang's smile held an eerie light and his gaze was filled with malice, "Gao Lin, you may have behaved intelligently all your life but you've become careless at this moment. You may shield her now but, sooner or later, you will pay the price for your choice today!"

Once Elder Huang had said his piece, he slowly rose to his feet and walked towards Huang Feifei. He picked her up before heading towards the direction of the elder's courtyard.

"Are you trying to escape?" The Vermillion Bird's cherubic features slowly lit up with an angry flame which whirled angrily from within her being, emitting a scorching heat, "I have not given you permission to leave, who asked you to leave?"

Her manner of speaking was full of dominance but her voice was tender and youthful. It sounded a lot like someone willfully throwing a tantrum.

However, no one dared to assume that the Vermillion Bird was merely throwing a childish tantrum! Everyone knows that if the elder was to take another step, this little lolita would certainly incinerate him until not even his ashes would be left.

Sure enough, Elder Huang did not dare to move a muscle when he heard her voice. He suppressed the fiery rage within his heart, turned around and asked, "Gu Ruoyun has already turned my daughter into a good-for-nothing, what more do you want?"

"Kowtow and apologize! Or leave one of your arms behind!"

The little Vermillion Bird raised her fiery brows and demanded with a domineering voice.

This was an order from Lord Zixie, if these people don't kowtow to the Master and confess their crimes, don't let them leave!

She does not dare to defy Lord Zixie's orders.

"You..."

Elder Huang was so angry that he was on the brink of insanity. If it had not been for the fact that he could not defeat the little lolita, he would never have tolerated this! He would have made her adorable little face bloom long ago.

"You talk too much."

The little Vermillion Bird laughed icily. With a wave of her tiny hand, she sent a spurt of flames towards Elder Huang. It ignited his clothes with a whoosh and soon enveloped his entire arm.

Elder Huang was now white with shock. He hurriedly threw Huang Feifei onto the ground and quickly tore his sleeve off. However, the flames were already burning strongly and even after he had torn his sleeve off, he could not stop them at all.

"Help me! One of you!"

He quickly turned towards a Medicine Sect's disciple and bellowed as his face twisted in agony.

The Medicine Sect's disciple's reaction was a little delayed but, in the end, he had gone to Elder Huang and stomped on his arm fiercely. Despite that, he could not put out the flames no matter how hard he tried.
