Chapter 351 - 351: Arrogance

Long Chen walked back to his courtyard.

He saw Man Gu standing at the door as he got there.

"What happened? Why are you standing outside?" Long Chen asked.

"Nothing Master. I was just waiting for you," Man Gu replied. He seemed somewhat hesitant.

"Waiting outside for me? Did something happen?" Long Chen inquired as he saw the worry on his face.

"Ah, Young Master. I... I need your help. I know that I shouldn't ask you for help, but you're the only one that can help me," Man Gu replied.

"What happened?" Long Chen asked.

"My little brother, He's an outer disciple of the sect. He's just 12 years old. The thing is that... ah, he was bullied by a few Outer disciples of the sect. They broke his hands and legs. He is heavily injured. I did give him medicine and his condition is better, but..." Man Gu started existing.

"But you don't want to let the disciples that beat your brother go free, isn't that right?" Long Chen finished his sentence with a smile on his face.

"Yes. When my brother goes back, they will just bully him again. I even went complaining to the outer elder, but he didn't even meet me. I heard from someone that the disciple that beat up my brother is the son of the Outer Elder. Please, Master, only you can help me. I don't want to see my little brother get beaten again," Man Gu said in a pleading tone.

"Huh, so that's why I didn't see you for quite some time. You were taking care of your brother," Long Chen said.

"Yes," 

Man Hu nodded his head.

"Alright. It's only a minor matter. I'll help you," Long Chen said to him.

"Take me to where those guys live," He told Man Gu.

"Yes Master," Man Gu said as he started walking towards a certain direction.

The Outer disciples and outer elders lived on the outer edge of the sect. Their places and infrastructures were farthest from the core of the sect where Long Chen lived.

The arrangements of the Dark Soul sect were in a manner such that the Core Sect was in the center, the outer sect was the farthest and the inner sect was somewhere in between.

Long Chen had never been to the Outer Sect of the dark Soul sect.

It took him around 40 minutes to get to the courtyards of the outer sect disciples.

Man Gu looked back at Long Chen and Long Chen just gave him a look of confidence as if he was allowing him to call them out.

"Yao Li! Yu Manxin! Chi Feng! Come out right now!" Man Gu roared loudly.

"Who the heck dares to bark at our door?" 

A door opened and 3 guys came outside.

All 3 of them looked like they were 18-20 years old.

"You 3 beat up my brother! It's time for you to settle the scores! As long as you promise that you will never trouble my brother again, I'll let things pass!" Man Gu announced.

"Hah, So you're the brother of Man Ling? I gotta say, you're even less impressive than your brother," Yao Li said in a mocking tone.

"Yao Li! I know that your brother is the Elder, but that doesn't mean that you can run rampant in the sect!" Man Gu said.

"So? What're you going to do about it?" Yao Li said in a threatening manner.

"He won't do anything, but I will. I've seen enough. If the 3 of you don't want to die, then start behaving properly," Long Chen said in between their conversation.

"Who the heck are you kid? You dare talk to us like that?" Yao Li said as he glared at Long Chen.

Long Chen usually didn't wear his Demon Ranked disciple badge and it was the same at the moment. He wasn't wearing his disciple badge. 

He also didn't wear the clothes of the core sect disciple as he didn't find them good enough. No one told him to wear them either as he was a Demon Ranked disciple who was basically on a rank that was even higher than a normal elder.

Only the Sect Master, Grand Elders, and Black-Robed Elders were considered to be higher than a Demon Ranked Disciple.

The kids in front of him didn't consider him anything special as Long Chen looked even younger than them.

"It doesn't matter who he is. Let's just beat the heck out of him for talking to us so rudely," Chi Feng said as he licked his lips.

"Yeah. Let's teach this son of a dog a lesson!" Yu Manxin also said.

Long Chen couldn't help but sigh. In his eyes, these guys were already dead.

"Hahaha, Yeah. Go and break all their bones! Let him feel the pain of trying to act like a hero," Yao Li said as he laughed out loud.

Both Yu Manxin and Chi Feng smirked as they started walking towards Long Chen.

Yu Manxin was the first person to get to Long Chen as he punched out, but before his fist could even get near Long Chen, a slap landed on his face.

Long Chen's single slap was enough to burst his head off while his body fell down to the ground.

Chi Feng stopped in his tracks as he started shivering at the sight of Yu Manxin's body.

He couldn't even move as Long Chen walked towards him. 

"Arrogance only suits the ones that actually have strength," Long Chen said as he gripped the neck of Chi Feng and crushed it.

Long Chen turned back to look at Yao Li who looked as if he had seen a ghost. He couldn't help but take a step back, but he stumbled and fell down to the ground.

Long Chen started walking towards him.

"Don't come near me! I have already informed my father! My father is an elder of the sect. He'll be here soon. If you did anything to me, you'll die a painful death!" Yao Li let out loudly.

Almost every other Outer Disciple had come out of their courtyard to watch, but none of them dared to help Yao Li.

In fact, some of the disciples were even happy now that Yao Li was getting punished. Most of them hated Yao Li as he was a big bully who always hurt others and didn't face any consequences just because he was the son of an elder. 

They didn't know who that young man was, but they all wished that he would kill Yao Li.

"Your Father? Sure. Let him come here! I'll wait. I also want to see the father that allows his son to behave so atrociously in the Dark Soul Sect," Long Chen said smilingly, but he didn't stop walking towards Yao Li.

He stepped near him and grabbed his neck as he picked him up in the air like a toy.

"Y-you... St...op..." Yao Li struggled to speak. He was finding it hard to breathe as well. 

He vehemently prayed for his father to get her at soon as he could. Only his father could save him from the pain as he had seen that not a single person here was willing to save him.

'I'll punish everyone that's here after my father kills this person!' he thought.

"Your father is taking awfully long. Are you sure that you informed him? He should have been here by now. Should I walk up to him instead? Tell me where he stays," Long Chen said smilingly.

"Y-you!" 

Yao Li couldn't help but feel as if Long Chen was crazy. He was so eager to die.

"Did you try to say something?" Long Chen inquired as he tightened his grip on Yao Li's neck.

"You vile beast! Leave my son alone!"
