Next day.

Lee Zhen Ren’s residence.

In the main hall, Ruo Zhi sat with Lee Qing sitting by her side.

They were apparently in a good mood with their lips slightly curled up.

A messenger had come yesterday to inform them about the arrival of the elders from the Six Pulse Sword Sect.

Tea was ready with the servant girls changing the tea cups if the tea got too cold.

Food was also prepared by the kitchen and was ready to be served within a few moments of notice.

Ruo Zhi felt a huge stone lifted off her chest when she got the message.

After so long, it was finally time to be able to accomplish her mission tasked by the sect leader.

Lee Qing standing beside her was also excited to be able to wreak havoc on the Sima Family and destroy them once and for all.

They waited not too long before a servant girl came running into the main hall.

"Master Ruo Zhi, they have arrived." The servant girl bowed at Ruo Zhi and said.

"Great, bring the elders in and make sure they are taken care of." Ruo Zhi said and the servant girl scurried away to bring the elders into the main hall.

It didn’t take long and three elder men walked into the main hall together with the servant girl.

They wore bright red robes and had equally bright red swords in their hands.

Ruo Zhi quickly stood up, cupped her hands and bowed at them.

Lee Qing also bowed at the three of them.

"Elder Tan, Elder Cher, and Elder Mian, it must have been a tiring journey for you, please have some tea first."

Elder Tan, who was the eldest of them all, narrowed his eyes and glanced at the surroundings.

He glanced at Ruo Zhi and Lee Qing with his eyes like an eagle.

Ruo Zhi, who was still bowing at them, froze, and she felt Elder Tan’s Spiritual Probe on her.

Lee Qing also suffered the same and was relieved when the Spiritual Probe went away.

Elder Tan then gave them a nod and said, "I hope you aren’t offended.

"I have to be extra careful to make sure that you aren’t taken over by someone else.

"We’ve already walked the distance from the Six Pulse Sword Sect to Hong Feng City, even though we could have flown in the air, so that we wouldn’t attract unnecessary attention.

"It would be so careless of me to make such a mistake if I didn’t make sure."

Ruo Zhi gave out a sigh of relief and stood up, "I understand, Elder Tan, please take a seat first."

Elder Tan nodded his head and he turned to the other two elders.

Elder Cher and Elder Mian, who were brothers and looked similar with their long gray eyebrows, took a seat by the side of the main hall.

"So, what is the situation now." Elder Tan took his seat and asked.

Ruo Zhi began to brief them on what had happened so far and how the rogue cultivators that they had sought to help had been finished off by the Sima Family.

Elder Tan snorted and said, "We will make sure that they wouldn’t be able to be so overbearing anymore."

Elder Cher and Elder Mian nodded their heads at what he had said.

"But the Qing Feng Sect..." Ruo Zhi was worried about backups from the Qing Feng Sect and asked.

Elder Tan gave her a smirk and said, "The Qing Feng Sect has been taken care of and they wouldn’t be able to send out help soon.

"Being big has its disadvantages."

He said and Elder Cher and Elder Mian had a sip of their tea and gave out a satisfying ah.

"That is great to hear, but what is our next plan of action?"

Elder Tan stroked his beard and said, "You did well but you weren’t cunning enough.

"Send our men to one of the Sima Family’s businesses, agitate them but tell our men not to do anything.

"Get them to hurt or kill our men.

"If they don’t, kill our men with our own hands and blame it on them.

"Blow up the matter afterwards.

"Get someone to take care of that Sima Ye you’ve been telling me about.

"We shall handle the rest at the Sima Family Mansion."

Ruo Zhi nodded her head at Elder Tan and thought that he was indeed an old sly fox.

However, she had some doubts and she asked, "Are you able to handle the Sima Family all by yourselves?"

"Hmph." Elder Tan grunted and said, "We aren’t so careless to come here without something else up our sleeves.

"Besides that, unless they have someone who is on our level, I don’t see a way out for them without the Qing Feng Sect coming to their rescue."

Ruo Zhi nodded her head and thought that maybe he was right.

They were, after all, at the peak of the Core Formation Level.

She didn’t know what the surprise they had up their sleeves was, but she knew better than to ask.

"You’ve had a long journey here, do take a rest for the day before we start the operations." Ruo Zhi said and the elders nodded their heads.

The servant girls quickly led the elders to their rooms to rest.

After they were gone, Lee Qing cupped her hands at Ruo Zhi and said, "Senior martial sister, let me take care of the Lin Clan when we get started."

She was still thinking about Lin Xuan Qi and how he had spoiled her plans so many times.

Ruo Zhi thought about it for a moment and shook her head.

"Stay focused, don’t cause extra troubles now. Take care of Sima Ye instead."

Lee Qing bit her lower lip and said, "Yes, senior martial sister."

She wished that the mysterious rogue cultivator would take care of Sima Ye for her so that she could go and take care of Lin Xuan Qi.

But she didn’t have much hope about it and gave out a long sigh.

The mysterious rogue cultivator hadn’t appeared or given any updates after he had left.

So she figured that he must have left like the rogue cultivator he was.
