Before he could finish speaking, he was struck by a blow to his chest by Master Third Sun who had raised his hand and sent the blow. He groaned and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. He looked at his Master in disbelief, unable to accept the fact that his Master was the one who had hurt him.

In his heart, his Master was like a father to him. But now, the Master whom he had always respected had just hurt him….

“This is your punishment for not following your Master’s orders! Get out of here immediately!” Master Third Sun glared at him with a somber face, his sharp eyes bored into him.

Duan Mubai wiped the blood from his mouth and remained kneeling on the ground. He raised his head and looked at his Master who was still standing behind the boundary barrier and threw his head forwards: “Master, I beg of you, please let Junior Sister go, Master, I beg of you, please let Junior Sister go….”

Upon hearing these words, Master Third Sun was furious. When he saw his other disciples arriving, he immediately raised his hand and condensed his spiritual energy and slammed his hand forwards once again.

The spiritual energy in his hand had turned into a fierce air current that slammed into Duan Mubai and threw him several meters away.

“Eldest Senior Brother!”

When the rest of them who had hurried over saw what had happened, they couldn’t help but exclaimed and quickly stepped forwards to help him up. However, when they saw Duan Mubai’s mouth filled with blood and his face pale as paper, they were shocked and quickly took a pill out for him to take.

“Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Brother, hang on!”

Oh my God!

Why did Master hit him so hard? Was he trying to kill Eldest Senior Brother?

“Cough cough….puff!” Duan Mubai coughed slightly and felt the blood gush out fiercely from his throat once again. He opened his mouth and tried to say something. However, as he was injured too seriously, his hand dropped down lifelessly and his eyes slowly closed as he passed out.

“Eldest Senior Brother! Eldest Senior Brother!”

They were shocked and shouted loudly but there was no response from him at all. The Second Senior Brother took the pulse of Duan Mubai and said to the others: “Eldest Senior Brother has only fainted, however, his internal organs are injured and he must be taken back for treatment soon.”

“Then let’s take Eldest Senior Brother back for treatment!” The Third and Fourth alchemists said. They helped him up and looked back at their Master behind the boundary barrier, perplexed.

They watched Master struck Eldest Senior Brother mercilessly. It was a blow from a Celestial Strong Exponent, yet Eldest Senior Brother didn’t avoid the blow. Did Master want to kill Eldest Senior Brother?

What had happened that made Master strike such a heavy hand?

“You two take Eldest Senior Brother back for treatment first. I will be along shortly.” The Second Senior Brother said and motioned for them to leave first.

“All right, be careful Second Senior Brother.”

The two of them said in lowered voices. After all, if Master could treat Eldest Senior Brother in such a manner, who knew what he would do to Second Senior Brother? When they thought of this, they felt uneasy in their hearts. What on earth was going on? Why did Junior Sister’s disappearance feel so messed up?

“Hey, do you think I am like Eldest Senior Brother? At the first sign of trouble I will run. Don’t worry!” Ruan Changchun grinned. Although he was ranked second, his brain was definitely not so.

After he watched them leave, he adjusted his expression then stepped forward sullen-faced and came to the front of the boundary barrier. He stopped and bowed to his Master: “Disciple Changchun pays his respects to Master.”

“Do you want to violate the order of your Master too?” Master Third Sun stared at Ruan Changchun coldly.
