Xiao Lin who had a powerful hearing broke a smile in his face when he heard what the bandit, Rainbeart said.
'I have to be careful with this person till I have the chance to kill him, or he might expose me to the bandits who would then try to attack me since they would see me as an extreme threat to them.' He said within himself.
He then recalled when he destroyed Deathwind' s fist and gave a smile.
He understood that what he did there was very tyrannical of him. But he enjoyed it.
Then he began to ponder that those bandits would think that he was also a body cultivator apart from being a Spiritual Energy cultivator, whereas he wasn't. Ever since he died and resurrected as a vampire, his body had become more tougher and stronger than those of his peers at the same cultivation stage which was the Spiritual Ascendance stage. So, his body which had been toughened to an unusually high degree, would be able to reduce the fist of Deathwind to a bloody mess. However, the only people that he couldn't go fist to fist with were Mortal Spiritual stage cultivators, the stage just above the Spiritual Ascendance stage, or they would simply shatter his body into pieces, as comparing the two stages together was like comparing a bison to an elephant.
When he got to his room and laid on his bed to sit down and look through the battle techniques in the Way of the Demonic Blade battle art that was transmitted to his memory by Lin Shou Wen, the Demonic Blade King, a knock was suddenly heard on his door.
Knock!
Once the knock sounded out, Xiao Lin's eyes snapped open after he had closed them to begin reading through the battle art in his mind.
Then without standing from where he sat, he asked "Who is there?"
"You don't have to know who is there. Open this door now and come out to see me." The arrogant voice of someone at his door sounded out.
Xiao Lin's eyes narrowed.
'What an arrogant prick' He said within.
He then closed his eyes back to begin to read through the art in his head.
Knock!
A knock sounded out again. And this time, loudly, giving the feeling that the person at the door was exceedingly furious.
Xiao Lin's eyes then snapped open once again with anger surfacing in his sharp-looking eyes.
"What's wrong with you? What do you want?" Xiao Lin asked in a loud, vexed tone where he sat at.
"I want you to open this door and come out to see me, now! I have something from Master Nine Calamities to tell you." The person answered.
"Is that why you can't sensibly ask nicely? Instead of arrogantly going about it like you are on top of the universe?" Xiao Lin asked.
Once Xiao Lin asked that question, the person at the door to his room shook hard.
'Did this damned newbie just say that to me? Haha! Very good!' The person asked within himself with great shock in his tone.
"I am waiting!" The person angrily and impatiently said out loud.
"Relax your impatient, arrogance-riddled mind, I am coming out to see you now" Xiao Lin said and then stood from where he sat to go open the door and see the person that was impatiently demanding for his presence.
Creak!
Pah!
Once the door of his room creaked open and Xiao Lin stepped out to appear before this person, a heavy slap that took Xiao Lin by shock and caused him to stagger backwards by many feet as it carried a lot of force, was suddenly delivered in his face.
His eyes then immediately shone with rage because he had just been slapped.
But before he could go ahead to do anything, like immediately kick this person hard at the groin region to burst his balls or deliver a massively heavy punch in the person's face to possibly shatter it apart, he saw that this person was at the 10th-layer Mortal Spiritual stage. He then immediately calmed.
However, the rage in his eyes didn't disappear, as he looked on with it at the person who only gave a smile and patiently waited for Xiao Lin to retaliate, just so he could really beat him up and teach him a strongly reverberating lesson not to behave prideful and haughty before his senior colleagues.
"What message do you bring from Master Nine Calamities?" He asked.
"Come with me. He wants to discuss something with you." The person said with a sneering smile in his face.
Xiao Lin saw the mockery expression in his face and only swallowed the insult for now, and with a strong belief appearing in his heart that a time for him to retaliate would surely come.
He then began to follow behind this person who had a thick air of arrogance circulate about him.
Five minutes later, they got to where Master Nine Calamities resided.
Then the person that Xiao Lin followed behind knocked on the door of Master Nine Calamities room and said "Master, I have brought him here."
"Alright. The door is open. Tell him to come in." Master Nine Calamities's voice rang from within the room.
The person nodded his head and then turned around to look at Xiao Lin.
"Kid, go in." He said.
Xiao Lin looked at him with an indecipherable smile appearing in his face. He then nodded his head and headed towards the door of Master Nine Calamities's room.
When he appeared in front of it, he turned the handle which caused the door to open.
Then when he stepped in, he closed the door behind him and quickly bowed to Master Nine Calamities who sat on a throne with many scantily-clad ladies dancing around him with smiles in their faces.
"Bloodfang my boy. Hahaha! I heard of your amazing battle with Deathwind and that you taught him a powerful lesson not to underestimate anyone with a lower cultivation base." Nine Calamities said.
"Well, I tried my best to teach him a good lesson that he wouldn't forget for the rest of his one-handed life." Xiao Lin said.
Hahahaha!
Master Nine Calamities nodded his head as he grinned.
Then when he stopped laughing a few moments later, he said with a serious expression appearing in his face.
"Due to your staggering battle prowess and unwavering ruthlessness, I have totally made up mind to allow you join the thirty-five bandits team that is going to raid a particular street that has several treasure stores at noon."
"That's the only time of the day that we can quickly carry out that mission, or it would fail and result in many casualties for my loyal men."
