Chapter 148 - History With The Chaos Sect

  The residential area in the inner court was divided by class: Insect, Snake, Tiger, Phoenix, and Dragon. They were each given their own houses, but the disciples not in a class had to live in dorms with roommates.

  Although the insect-class contained the greatest number of students, they had the smallest area of land allocated to them. The higher the class, the more land they were given. The houses were a bit bigger and the scenery was even more beautiful too.

  Since the teacher assistant intentionally put Xiao Fang into a house furthest away from the other girls, there was nothing but the serene sound of nature around him. The closest house to him was about a 100 meters away, but his closest neighbor was just over 500 meters away.

  ’Finally home,’ he thought happily.

  As soon as Xiao Fang entered his house it only took him a second to scan the interior of the house with his ears. Although he wanted to rest, he needed to do something about the death energy filling his dantian.

  Just like in Li Lian’s house, there was an open space at the center of the house. It had an open roof, a grass floor, and a small tree in the middle. The space was only about 10 meters by 10 meters, but it was open enough to simulate being in a real park.

  Finding a spot on the grass, he crossed his legs then began meditating the [ Death Reaper ] method. As soon as he started, he noticed that his body was finally loosening up. After all that time of controlling his urges, he felt like he could finally let it go like a good clean fart. He was so relaxed he felt like he could sleep.

  After a few hours of meditating, he eventually did……

  Outside of his door, Bai Fan stood there wearing hardly anything at all. The moonlight illuminated her figure while the breeze lightly swayed her hair and thin fairy-like gown in the wind.

  She wanted to knock on his door, but she didn’t want to seem like that kind of girl. Truth was she thought she was over him, but standing next to him earlier just reminded her of how much she still craved for him.

  She stood outside of his door for a few minutes before finally putting her hand down. She resisted the temptation to knock on his door.

  ’Once he learns that I am living near him, he might come to me on his own,’ she thought.

  She didn’t want to sleep alone on this beautiful lonely night, but she felt like it was the right move. She eventually left his door, then went back home to rest.

  Meanwhile, Zhao Pan was watching from a far as Bai Fan was standing at Xiao Fang’s door. She was planning to make a move on him as well, but changed her mind after discovering that Bai Fan was also here.

  ’I will have the whole year with him, I’ll get plenty of chances to jump him in the future,’ she thought……

  Between 2 - 3 hours later, Xiao Fang woke up. That was about all the rest he needed to feel fully awake at his cultivation realm.

  Xiao Fang was still sitting in the lotus position, but the only difference now was that he was at the 3rd stage of the [ Death Reaper ] Refinement realm and was approaching another breakthrough.

  Even if that was a pretty big jump from the 1st stage, he needed to kill 20 people to do it.

  ’How many people do I have to kill to cultivate this method,’ he thought.

  Especially when he enters the Spirit Core or Profound realm it’s going to become a lot harder to make breakthroughs. Would he eventually need to kill thousands of people just to cultivate this method?

  Xiao Fang didn’t like the idea of killing the innocent for his own convenience. Even though killing came easy to him now, he wouldn’t do so without reason.

  Suddenly a smile crept up on his face when he thought about the Chaos sect.

  ’It seems I’ll need to pay them a visit,’ he thought.

  As Xiao Fang continued cultivating the Death Reaper method after using up all of the death energy in his dantian, he noticed that it was a lot easier to cultivate the method now.

  It seemed that although the death energy he gained from killing people benefitted his [ Death Reaper ] method and slowed down the effects of the curse, the main benefit he gained was that it became easier to cultivate the technique even without killing anyone.

  Discovering this made Xiao Fang feel a bit better……

  Chaos Sect:

  Currently ranked 2nd in the country, 1 above the Divine Sword sect (ranked 3rd). This was the place his half-sister lived for a majority of her life.

  The Divine Sword sect and the Chaos sect had been at each other’s throats for as long as anyone could remember, but since both sects were infamous for their cruelty and tyranny, everyone preferred it this way.

  Several years ago, they tried to create an alliance by marrying Xiao Fang’s father, Xiao Jianhong, with the Patriarch’s daughter of the Chaos sect.

  For a time, the Divine Sword sect and the Chaos sect were no longer attacking each other. Which meant their focus was now on the weaker sects around them.

  The weaker sects were in trouble. They had to create alliances to fight them off, but their efforts were futile. Even the 13 major sects were in trouble.

  There was almost an all out war against the Divine Sword sect and the Chaos sect, so the Royal Court nearly had to get involved. However, for some reason, the Chao Sect became hostile towards the Divine Sword sect again. No one cared so much as to why things returned to how they were, but they were glad it did.

  Only a select few in the Divine Sword sect, Chaos sect, and the Royal Court knew the reason why their alliance was broken. It was because of the birth of Xiao Fang.

  Xiao Jianhong broke the agreement and had relations with another woman in secret. That woman of course was Yu An. When the Chaos sect discovered this they immediately returned the Chaos sect Patriarch’s daughter back to their sect, along with their 4 year old daughter, Xiao Fang’s half sister.

  This was the reason why it was assumed Xiao Fang’s assassin when he was 13 years old was from the Chaos sect. Of course there were some dark organizations who knew of their history so it could’ve been them that tried to kill Xiao Fang to restore the two major sect’s alliance, but in the end they were unsuccessful, and Xiao Kong hid and denied Xiao Fang’s existence from the world to protect him.

  Xiao Kong, Xiao Fang’s grandfather, never trusted the Chaos sect, especially during their alliance. He knew that if they didn’t end up betraying them now, then they would in 50 or a 100 years from now. Instead of waiting for that to happen, he created Xiao Fang with a string of presumed coincidences. The human mind was too predictable, especially to a genius like Xiao Kong.

  Unfortunately, the Royal court had recently put him on a mission away from the country, so the Divine Sword sect was temporarily vulnerable to external forces. Xiao Kong had no other choice but to form another alliance with the Chaos sect and agree to their terms which involved Yu An’s execution, and banishment of ’Xiao Fang, The Cripple’.

  To ensure that they kept their promise, the Chaos sect Patriarch agreed to let his daughter and granddaughter (Xiao Fang’s half-sister) return to the Divine Sword sect to live with Xiao Jianhong.

  Even though they were welcomed as honored guests, they were in fact Xiao Kong’s insurance that the Chaos sect wouldn’t attack them while he was away from the country.

  He knew Wu Yue would never kill Yu An, so he ordered someone he trusted to tail her and finish the job if Yu An couldn’t come up with a way to fake her death. Xiao Kong understood where to draw the line so he didn’t do anything too extreme unless it was absolutely necessary.

  Whether Wu Yue told Xiao Fang or not was up to her. He knew Yu An wouldn’t do it, but Wu Yue might. If Xiao Fang hated Xiao Kong more after this then it would only encourage him to get stronger more quickly.

  What Xiao Kong didn’t expect was for Xiao Fang to get someone pregnant and temporarily return to the Divine Sword sect so soon. Well, that didn’t change anything. If anything, things just played out even better than he planned.
