Xiao Ming was not at all afraid of the approaching elder law enforcer.

Firstly, he did not actively provoke trouble.

Secondly, even if he were to be punished by the elder law enforcer, or even expelled from the sect, Xiao Ming would not regret it.

It would be worth it to leave Spirit Sword Gate for Hu Yunxi, who was the reincarnation of the Empress.

At this moment, Zheng Peng was extremely pleased.

It was a strict rule within the sect that disciples were not allowed to kill each other, and it was an unforgivable offense.

Yet, Xiao Ming, in a fit of anger, actually killed so many disciples. It was simply outrageous. Even though he was a strong cultivator in the Origin Energy Realm, he could not escape punishment from the sect.

He might even be expelled from the sect.

Zheng Peng had a smug look on his face, eagerly awaiting Xiao Ming's punishment from the elder law enforcer.

However, what happened next made Zheng Peng question his life.

Upon seeing Xiao Ming, the elder law enforcer first froze for a moment, then awkwardly said, "So it's Xiao Zhen's true disciple, Xiao Zhen's true disciple. Why did you have such a violent outburst and kill your fellow disciples?"

The tone of the elder law enforcer was gentle, more like a calm conversation than a reprimand.

He had seen how terrifying Xiao Ming was.

Xiao Ming was not only the personal disciple of the sect leader, but also had extremely high talent in cultivation. He might become the core pillar of the sect in the future.

Therefore, the elder law enforcer did not dare to easily offend Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming looked up and said, "These bastards took advantage of my absence and bullied my maid. Their crimes deserve death!"

"I killed them in self-defense. I ask the elder law enforcer, what did I do wrong?"

"Is that what happened? Then it's fine," the elder law enforcer said with a smile.

Beside them, Zheng Peng's eyes widened.

Xiao Zhen's true disciple?

True disciple?

The person in front of him was actually a true disciple?!

Wasn't he only in the Origin Energy Realm?

How did he inexplicably become a true disciple?

In Spirit Sword Gate, ordinary disciples in the Origin Energy Realm were only inner disciples. To become a true disciple, one had to at least cultivate to the Core Lake stage!

And that wasn't even the most important thing.

The most important thing was that this matter was just brushed aside so lightly.

Even if Xiao Ming was a true disciple, after killing so many fellow disciples, he should still be punished by the sect.

"Elder law enforcer, I refuse to accept this!" Zheng Peng shouted, "Even if he is a true disciple, he can't be so arrogant! He killed so many fellow disciples. I ask the elder to enforce the law strictly!"

"Strictly my ass!" the elder law enforcer said angrily, "You people provoked first, and Xiao Zhen's true disciple only retaliated in self-defense. If you continue to cause trouble here, I'll deal with you first!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Peng was immediately silenced.

He realized that something was wrong. Clearly, the elder law enforcer was trying to please Xiao Ming!

According to the sect's rules, even if Xiao Ming was acting in self-defense, his retaliation was excessive!

"Fine, I admit defeat this time!"

Zheng Peng was indignant and turned to leave.

However, Xiao Ming let out a cold laugh.

"You want to leave? It's not that easy!"

With a flick of his hand, a sharp sword energy burst out from his palm.

"Bang!"

Zheng Peng's arm was instantly shattered by the sword energy, and he was sent flying more than ten meters away.

"Why are you still attacking me?!" Zheng Peng covered his painful wound, his face filled with shock and fear.

"When you saw the elder law enforcer coming, you immediately changed your tune, trying to use the elder law enforcer to suppress me," Xiao Ming sneered.

"That move just now was to teach you a lesson!"

"Remember, my name is Xiao Ming, and I am someone you can't afford to provoke!"

"Senior Xiao, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please spare me," Zheng Peng looked at Xiao Ming, who was filled with anger, and then at the elder law enforcer who stood by and did nothing. His expression changed immediately, and he quickly begged for mercy.

"Hmph, a fence-sitter like you, get lost!"

"Yes, yes, I'll leave now, I'll leave right away." Zheng Peng lowered his head and covered his wound before running away quickly.

Meanwhile, the Elder Law Enforcer remained expressionless after Xiao Ming suddenly took action, as if he hadn't seen anything.

After Zheng Peng had left, the Elder Law Enforcer smiled and chatted with Xiao Ming for a while before leaving in a flash.

After seeing off the Elder Law Enforcer, Xiao Ming returned to the courtyard with Hu Yunxi.

Closing the door, Xiao Ming asked, "What exactly happened today?"

With her head lowered, Hu Yunxi timidly said, "I... I saw some leaves and dust piled up at the entrance, so I took a broom to clean it up. After I finished cleaning, those people saw me and started coming over to bully me."

"Master, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have caused trouble for you."

At this point, Hu Yunxi almost burst into tears.

Xiao Ming patted Hu Yunxi's head gently and said softly, "I didn't mean to blame you, I just wanted to understand the whole story."

"Well, you have a unique appearance, so it's better not to go out casually in the future to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Hu Yunxi was petite and cute, with a pair of fox ears and a beautiful fox tail behind her.

Such a well-behaved little fox girl was indeed eye-catching.

"Yes! I understand, I won't cause trouble for Master anymore!" Hu Yunxi nodded firmly.

Then she added, "Master, you were so domineering just now. Thank you for helping me out."

As soon as she finished speaking, the system's prompt suddenly sounded in Xiao Ming's mind, "The host helped Hu Yunxi and gained +30 favorability from Hu Yunxi!"

Xiao Ming was slightly stunned.

Then he felt overjoyed!

Favorability had just increased like this?

And it increased by a full 30 points!

Adding the previous favorability, Hu Yunxi's favorability towards him had reached 50 points!

At this moment, Xiao Ming suddenly hoped that Zheng Peng, who had rolled far away, would continue to be stubborn. This way, he could increase Hu Yunxi's favorability even more.

On the other hand, Zheng Peng returned to his residence with a pale face.

After swallowing a pill that could stop the bleeding and stabilizing his injuries, Zheng Peng became more and more angry as he thought about it!

Since joining the Spirit Sword Gate, he had never been humiliated and severely injured like this before. Even his arm had been forcibly severed!

"No, I can't swallow this anger!"

"That Xiao Ming may only be in the Origin Energy Realm, and I'm not his match, but my big brother can be!"

"I will ask my big brother to help me seek revenge!"

Furious, Zheng Peng gritted his teeth and immediately rushed to his big brother's residence.

Zheng Peng's big brother was named Zheng Jian and had already cultivated to the peak of the Origin Energy Realm. He was a well-known inner disciple.

Speaking of which, the reason Zheng Peng dared to cause trouble everywhere in the Spirit Sword Gate and had some followers was not because of his own mediocre strength, but because he had Zheng Jian backing him up!

Zheng Peng quickly found Zheng Jian and roughly explained the situation. Zheng Jian was immediately furious!

"This guy named Xiao Ming has gone too far!" Zheng Jian angrily said, "Don't worry, little brother, I will teach him a lesson for you and make him pay the price!"

After a pause, Zheng Jian added, "Are you sure Xiao Ming is only in the Origin Energy Realm?"

"Sure!" Zheng Peng nodded and said, "But Xiao Ming seems to be a true disciple with a high status."

Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed across Zheng Jian's face.

"A true disciple? Hmph, when I reach the Core Lake Realm, I will also be a true disciple! So, there's no need to fear his identity!"

"So, big brother, what are you planning to do? Will you disable his arm to avenge me?" Zheng Peng asked with a gloomy expression.

However, Zheng Jian shook his head.

"The sect strictly prohibits disciples from killing each other. I can't directly cripple him. However, the sect has the Life and Death Platform to resolve conflicts."

Zheng Jian sneered, "I will publicly kill Xiao Ming in front of all the disciples! I want to let other disciples know that Zheng Jian is not to be trifled with!"

"A true disciple? So what? If his strength is not enough, he will still be a dead soul under my spear!"

Saying that, Zheng Jian picked up a large green iron spear and, guided by Zheng Peng, headed straight towards Xiao Ming's location with an imposing manner.
