I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 1010 - 1011: The Beggar’s Peak of Life

Chapter 1010: Chapter 1011: The Beggar’s Peak of Life

“”Junior’s modest navigation hardly deserves such a personal recommendation from senior, I’m truly flattered. This must be Sect Master Ying, right? I’ve long heard that the master of Sword Sect is a man of great talents and astonishing gifts. Seeing you today, it indeed is extraordinary. Your strength has nearly approached the Saint Realm!””

“My name is Xu Fu, steward of the Xu Family from the Southern Continent. If the disciples of the Sword Sect ever find trouble in the Southern Continent, they can seek aid from my Xu Family!””

The portly middle-aged man, rubbing his round belly, chuckled heartily.

“My name is Wu Menghua, the biological mother of Meng Yao. My daughter has been well taken care of by the Sword Sect!”

A middle-aged woman smiled faintly, her demeanor elegant and her charm still apparent.

Upon hearing these words, Li Xiaobai suddenly awakened from his daze—that was why he felt that these experts looked familiar. Many among them bore a striking resemblance to the captured prodigies, evidently their biological parents.

...

With these closest kin arriving at their doorstep, the fortune or misfortune was hard to predict!

Yet, right now, these people were clearly unaware that the revered elder they worshiped like a deity was merely a fake and shoddy product, inherently just a weakling, skilfully deceiving them with his acting.

“I am an Elder from the Hundred Flowers Sect…”

“I am a steward from the Demon Sealing Sect…”

“I am…”

The Half-Saint experts introduced themselves one after another, their faces adorned with benign smiles, presenting a very friendly visage.

Ying Diao knew that their treatment was out of respect for Senior Xiao Lao Di; otherwise Sword Sect had no standing to mingle with these powerhouses from Super Sects, even if he could outrank them individually in strength.

“”Great benefactors, Ying Diao here acknowledges your kindness. If there’s a need in the future, I will definitely lend strong support!””

Ying Diao bowed solemnly, not daring to be negligent.

“”Any troubles, just mention my name, that should be enough; this favor is mine to return, not for a junior like you.””

The vagabond waved his hand and casually spoke, his demeanor that of a boss.

“”Senior instructs rightly!””

“”If we accept Sect Master Ying’s favor, it would be akin to disrespecting Senior Xiao Lao Di, which is absolutely unacceptable. From now on, let’s assist each other and seek mutual development!””

The Half-Saints bowed and agreed, not daring to neglect the instructions of Senior Xiao Lao Di.

They saw being reprimanded by Xiao Lao Di as an honor, but to Li Xiaobai, it was terrifying. My goodness, the old vagabond could really act, treating these senior powerhouses like juniors, even enjoying bossing them around.

But these big shots seemed to genuinely love this treatment. The stronger and more domineering the vagabond’s demeanor, the stronger their reverence grew.

These experts had preemptively recognized the vagabond as Xiao Lao Di without any doubt, thus his deception was alarmingly effective, even managing to lead them to trample the Blade Sect just by a flick of his fingers.

Ying Diao’s expression also turned colorful; at this moment, he finally understood why Sword Sect suddenly had many strong experts—it turned out they were all here to collect debts!

These experts from the Saint Realm and Heavenly Immortal Realm were all from the great Super Sects of the Southern Continent. A few months before, when Li Xiaobai was still in the Human Immortal Realm, he had kidnapped dozens of elites from the Human Immortal Ranking List, nearly capturing half of the talents on the list.

These prestigious families were naturally not likely to agree easily. Counting the days, it was indeed time for them to show up.

Fortunately, with Senior Xiao Lao Di here, he could deter the crowd. Otherwise, today’s situation in the Eastern Continent might have been reversed.

“”Honored Daoists are truly magnanimous. Today’s incident will be etched in my heart, all your disciples are safe and sound in Sword Sect! These past days, Sword Sect has been supplying them with the best resources.””

“”Ultimately, it’s just a squabble among the younger generation. My disciples were unruly; I apologize for their behavior, and I hope you esteemed Daoists will forgive them!””

Ying Diao clasped his fists and bowed.

“”It’s nothing; my worthless descendant started the provocation. Getting beaten up taught him a lesson in reality, saving him from his arrogant behavior at home!””

The man named Xu Fu, the portly middle-aged man, spoke lightly, his attitude surprisingly good, drastically different from his earlier resolution to obliterate Blade Sect.

“”Don’t worry, from now on we’re all one. There’s no need to distinguish between us, moreover, these juniors have made rapid progress in their cultivation within Sword Sect, far surpassing what the Super Sects could offer. If anything, they should be thankful to you!””

The vagabond nonchalantly remarked.

“”Cough cough, indeed, it’s all thanks to the senior’s good teachings. My worthless son is even about to step into the Earth Immortal Realm, truly unbelievable!””

“”You speak the truth. According to the original plan of the sect, Meng Yao should have been suppressing her realm to solidify her foundation. But now, not only is her foundation robust, but her cultivation has also prematurely reached the Earth Immortal Realm. For the senior’s methods, we can only admire!””

“”Senior not widely taking disciples truly is a great loss for the Central Origin Realm!””

A group of Half-Saint experts sycophantically seized the moment to flatter the old vagabond.

They indeed came to accuse and reprimand, but the surprises provided by the Sword Sect were one after another, momentarily confusing them about the sect’s background and foundation.

In every aspect, the resources possessed by Sword Sect even surpassed those of the Super Sects, yet oddly, aside from the transient Xiao Lao Di, there was no other Saint Realm strong expert in the sect, not even another half-saint besides Ying Diao. This was quite thought-provoking.

Perhaps this sect was backed by some mysterious powerful support; it required cautious handling.

The old vagabond laughed boisterously, appearing very pleased, “”Hahaha, since Blade Sect has been dealt with, let’s head back home!””

“”From now on, the Eastern Continent is our domain. Later, I’ll have a talk with Beichen Feng, let him take it easy and stop capturing Sword Sect disciples!””

“”Damn, this guy is really good at pretending! That place should really be occupied by this Buddha!”

Ergouzi watched the old vagabond bossing around many powerhouses and envied him greatly.

“”If you went up there, you’d just be handing out freebies.””

Li Xiaobai sarcastically remarked, still not having settled the score for Ergouzi secretly running away to the Western Desert.

“”Who would have thought, after not seeing him for many days, this old man has completely risen up.””

Ji Wuqing was also enviously impressed.

“”This is playing with fire. If things go bad and his true identity gets exposed, we’ll instantly be torn into pieces.””

Li Xiaobai frowned worriedly. He knew the real identity of the old vagabond who genuinely lacked cultivation level and relied purely on acting. Seeing how things were unfolding now, even mentioning Beichen Feng casually, it seemed he believed his own act, rendering Li Xiaobai somewhat speechless.

One could only hope he would not become too complacent; an accidental display of Immortal Yuan Power and getting exposed would really be disastrous.
