The disciples looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Lin Fan, however, made his move first.
He punched at them from a distance.
Boom.
With the punches breaking the air, loud booming sounds erupted.
Splatter.
When the Qi wave from Lin Fan's punches hit the disciples, their heads, shoulders and chest blew up into a red mist.
Disciples further away were drenched in red when they got rained all over with blood.
Run.
This man was a devil.
That's all they had in mind after what they saw.
They turned and tried to get away.
Ho Ming thrust his sword on the ground and the ground exploded.
It brought down the disciples trying to get away.
Soon, it was a one-sided affair as Lin Fan and the others cleared out the fortress.
When they were finished, Lee Xiao and Tai Lan ca over.
"You might want to clean up a bit." Lee Xiao handed a piece of cloth to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was now drenched in red and looked more like a dark cultivator than the Dark Lotus Sect disciples.
"Thanks." Lin Fan took the cloth from Lee Xiao and started to wipe himself clean.
Hun Yen Kun also ca up to Lee Xiao and checked on him.
He had seen what happened earlier.
"When we get back to the sect, co and find ." Hun Yen Kun wanted to introduce Lee Xiao to Qing Yang Zi and Zhao Qing Ying.
To be able to ascend amidst battle, Lee Xiao had more talent than previously expected.
"Thank you, senior martial brother. I would like to recomnd my friend too."
Lee Xiao pulled Tai Lan to his side, trying to pitch an opportunity for him.
He patted hard on Tai Lan's back and nudged him.
Tai Lan got the hint, quickly clasped his hands together and bowed at Hun Yen Kun.
"If you insist, just co along," Hun Yen Kun nodded and said.
"Now what do we do?" Lin Fan said as he glanced at the fort with bodies all over it.
Hun Yen Kun slapped his forehead and shook his head.
"How can I forget," he said and took out a jade pendant.
Injecting Qi into the jade pendant, making it glow, Hun Yen Kun spoke at it.
"The ambush points are cleared."
"Well done, stay put until we et up with you," Zhao Qing Ying's voice ca into Hun Yen Kun's head.
Hun Yen Kun then asked Lin Fan and the others to rest and be on the alert.
While they were having so dried rations, Lee Xiao ca up to Lin Fan.
His fortunes had changed after being in the sa team as Lin Fan, he had to be grateful and give Lin Fan sothing in return.
Lee Xiao dug around in his robe, and he got out all he had on him.
So pieces of silver and twenty copper coins.
"Lin Fan, here is so token of appreciation for your help. I would've been dead by now if it wasn't for you."
Lee Xiao held the pieces of silver and copper coins on his palm, and he stretched out his hands at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan frowned at the gesture and shook his head.
He pushed Lee Xiao's hand away and said, "Keep it. I have no need for that."
Glancing at Ho Ming next to him, Lin Fan continued and said, "Help Ho Ming whenever you can in the Sword Peak, that's all I ask of you."
If Ho Ming's influence increased in the Sword Peak, Lin Fan's ascent to the sect master would be easier.
And Lee Xiao's performance has been getting better so far.
He was soone Lin Fan wanted on his side.
Lee Xiao sighed and kept his silver and copper coins, after which he nodded and said, "Tai Lan and I will do our best to help Ho Ming. Just tell us and we shall deliver."
"That's great." Lin Fan patted Lee Xiao on his back.
After that, Lin Fan looked up into the sky.
It was getting brighter as the sun peeked out of the dark clouds.
Ti to get ready for the showdown, he thought to himself.
…
Tai Mountains.
Three kiloters away from Qing Feng Sect's campsite.
General Liu Feng was masked and dressed in all black.
The Raging Tiger Army was the sa following behind him.
He was on the order of the Emperor to finish off the Dark Lotus Sect disciples and Qing Feng Sect disciples.
He just had to wait after their battle was over.

Even though General Liu Feng didn't want to do it, orders from the Emperor were not negotiable.
The only best thing he could do was to let Lu Ding stay behind and not get involved.
General Liu Feng had high hopes for him.
They had waited for a few days, but the Qing Feng Sect disciples didn't make much progress.
Soon, a man in black ca running towards him.
He knelt and said, "General, the Qing Feng Sect is moving. I think they are going to enter the Tai Mountains."
General Liu Feng nodded and said, "Well done, continue scouting and update when anything happens."
The scout bowed and ran off.
General Liu Feng turned back and waved at the soldiers behind him.
Finally, it was ti for so action.
…
Zhao Qing Ying and the peak lords stood behind as they entered the Tai Mountains.
The Qing Feng Sect disciples stread up into the forts that Lin Fan's team had cleared.
The forts were high up the mountainous terrain, so it took them so ti to reach.
When the first fort was occupied by the disciples, the signal tower was lit up.
Zhao Qing Ying then ordered the rest to advance.
After half an hour, they reached the small valley where Lin Fan was situated.
When Lin Fan saw Qing Feng Sect disciples enter the fort, he knew it was ti to go.
By now Lin Fan's team and Hun Yen Kun were well rested and had their Qi and energy restored.
They went down into the small valley and t up with the main force.
"Damn. They've succeeded."
"That ans more rewards for them."
"Lucky bastards."
Just as they were greeted by disciples with envious faces, sticks with flas were thrown at them from a distance.
It was the Dark Lotus Sect.
