I am the Young Master - Chapter 106

——(POV third person, the outer walls)——

Li Huang, Li Wanrou, and Cai ZhenKang got up after a few minutes and asked the disciples to continue building the outer walls. Other disciples also came to join them in the time that they were resting. With the addition of 40 disciples that were reassigned to build the other walls, the team consisted of 59 disciples that were ready to work.

With these numbers, it wasn’t hard to finish the work on the outer walls fast. Spreading out the disciples, the team got to building.

Within two hours the walls were finished and the strengthening formations for the outer walls was also half done as the formation team finished the work on the inner wall. Because of the large beast horde that attacked the fort, everyone worked with more energy as no one could rest easy knowing that the beasts could surround them the next minute.

When the outer walls were complete and inspected by Li Huang and others, they had to dig the moat. Most of the disciples were assigned to the formation team to speed up that process so only a group of five were assigned to the newly formed digging group.

——(Somewhere in the trial’s space, the moment Jin Fen ran)——

“MY HAAAAND!” Jin Fen screamed at the top of his lungs. Jin Fen was full of rage as now he had lost his dominant hand, his right hand. Gritting his teeth, Jin Fen popped a couple of pills that he ironically got from Li Huang himself, the one who inflicted this pain on him.

His mind was full of ways that he wanted to torture Li Huang and kill him slowly. Oh, how he would love to tear him to pieces just to put the pieces back together. As he was deep in thoughts, his eyes gained a red hue. The more he would think of Li Huang, the more this hue intensified.

“That bastard! How dare he attack me? ME?” Jin Fen shouted. He couldn’t believe that Li Huang not only dared to attack him, he also dared to maim him.

“And what did others do? Nothing. They might have as well attacked me too. Ungrateful dogs, I could have killed them anytime that I wished so but let them keep their miserable lives and what do I get in return? Backstabbing bastards! All of them!” Jin Fen spits on the ground as he finished shouting. Somehow, he didn’t find himself at fault for this situation. He didn’t find himself at fault for stealing the blue orb, he didn’t find himself at fault for putting everyone in the trial in danger by his actions, and he didn’t find himself at fault that his action could result in a serious problem for the heavenly sword sect. Why would he? Isn’t it natural for an ant to be stepped on? So how is it any different for him and others? They obviously should be glad that they can be his stepping stones, this way they might occupy a line or two in his legend…

Jin Fen who was angry because of the audacity that Li Huang and others have shown him, punched a tree to calm himself down. That unfortunate tree was torn to pieces.

After a few moments, he calmed down a bit and his eyes lost the red hue that they had gained in the past minute.

He now could think more clearly and was calm enough to come up with a plan. He wanted revenge and he wanted it yesterday. He didn’t care about Li Huang’s backing or any such things. As they say, what is an army in front of absolute might?

What was surprising was that Jin Fen really believed himself to be almighty in this world and wouldn’t put anyone in his eyes. Ever since that he found the [Evil God Scripture], he knew that he is not comparable to anyone in the world as they are but dust in front of him.

Well, one of those specks of dust just maimed him but he was so focused on himself that he somehow missed this significant fact that would deny his claims.

“…I have to get back, I have to get Lai Xinyue back.” Jin Fen muttered to himself. He wasn’t going to leave her to anyone else as she was already her woman, she just doesn’t know it yet.

‘She might complain and resist at first but she would come to know her position if I keep her as one of my maids for a couple of years…’ Jin Fen thought and smirked. For some reason, Jin Fen’s thoughts got more frantic as time passed and after he lost his hand, he reached new heights.

Jin Fen was interested in her as she looked exactly like his childhood sweetheart and he believed Lai Xinyue to be her reincarnation. The moment he saw her in the sect, he was so infatuated with her that he thought it was a dream but When Li Huang tried to kill her, he couldn’t stand still even if it was a dream so he went on stage and stopped Li Huang with one move. After that Li Huang who was humiliated, left the scene red from embarrassment and that was where Li Huang started making problems for Jin Fen.

…Or at least that is how Jin Fen remembers that event.

Jin Fen was in a good mood as he was thinking of Lai Xinyue but this didn’t go on for long as he heard a voice.

~’This is Li Huang, the chief disciple of the heavenly sword sect.’~ He heard the sound transmission of Li Huang that was sent to everyone in the trial space.

~’I have evidence that suggests this punishment is the same thing that caused the massacre 300 years ago.’~ Li Huang said and Jin Fen clenched his fists. He couldn’t believe that Li Huang would be shameless enough to use this method.

~’At that time only four disciples were able to come out of this trial alive. To avoid that same fate happening to us, I suggest that we enter a temporary alliance to overcome this hurdle.’~ He said.

‘That bastard wants to use this chance to get everyone together to fight me like that. Does he think he could maim me if I wasn’t careless for a moment?’ Jin Fen thought. He wasn’t afraid at all as he knew that he could defeat them all, something told him that he has the power to do so if he wishes it.

~’Our sect is on the move to the best location that we found to make a fort. When we are at the location we will set up a beacon to guide you there. This place is near the center of this space so I suggest you move toward the center for now…’~ Li Huang said. Although it was disgusting to Jin Fen to hear Li Huang’s voice he was glad that he told him where they are going to go. This way Jin Fen can easily go to that location and finish any and every participant that is with Li Huang. Of course, except Lai Xinyue as she is probably tricked into following them.

“Li Huang, your days are numbered from now on…” Jin Fen said as he grinned. He was confident that he can kill Li Huang if they were to fight again.

…

Jin Fen used his time to find this fort of Li Huang and his lackeys. As they had a beacon there it was hard to miss it so Jin Fen found it easily. He kept his distance to observe how many disciples would enter the fort and to his surprise, almost everyone who entered the trial joined them in a couple of hours and they also built some walls and buildings at the time.

Jin Fen was furious that Almost everyone joined that bastard and now he can not be sure that he can come out of this situation alive. Something was telling him that this was not a good plan to barge into the fort and kill Li Huang as he might have some difficulties getting out of there.

Trying to calm down he thought about the situation a little more as he could always find the best way to act when he pondered on it for a while.

He soon came up with a plan. If he can not attack now, he will wait for an opportunity to attack Li Huang when he is not ready for it and then he can also take Lai Xinyue away.

This idea came to him when he saw a beast horde attacking the fort and how they had to fight them when also thinking about the fort itself at the same time. This would provide the opening that he was looking for and give him the edge to kill Li Huang with ease.

Jin Fen was happily waiting for that opening, unaware that his eyes now had a pale red hue covering them.
