Corrupt Creations

Knock! Knock!

"The scout has arrived sir." A voice full of respect sounded outside the door.

Creak!

The door slowly opened. Then the scout and the other man looked at each other, braced themselves and entered inside. The person inside was someone they could never afford to offend.

There was a youth, sitting on a couch. His looks were nothing much, a really plain face, dark short hairs and common black eyes, but his attire was totally different. A really vivid scarlet robe the one that only core disciples were able to use. The Golden phoenix imprinted on it was the solid proof of his status.

The youth had a really expensive drink on his hands. Every once and then he would take a sip of it. He wasn't in a hurry. It was a misgiving if someone thought he was someone full of patience. On the contrary, he had a repressed rage that never seemed to fade out. On his hand the drink seemed to be boiling and exuded a hellish aura, and it was slowly merging with his, making his aura and personality more aggressive.

The scout and the other disciple didn't start the report, they just stood there waiting with apprehension.

After some time, he finished his drink and said with few words. "Did you find him?"

"I couldn't find him sir..."

Bang!

"Argh!"

The scout that came with the information was sent flying and hit hard the wall on the other side of the room.

"I gave you the simple task to find my brother, and after an entire day searching you can't? What a useless trash!" He was preparing to hit his underling again.

"No sir! Please! I couldn't find him, b-but I-I didn't come back empty handed!"

"Oh? What did you find then?"

"Some days ago, your brother was seen chasing after a girl, some people saw him following her to the woods. But, but..."

"Speak!"

"He didn't come back! He and his subordinates disappeared after that! And after some more investigation I found that the girl he was following was the one everyone is talking about. Chun Meiyi!" He made sure of finishing his report in a single swoop, afraid that half words would bring him more injuries.

"Changming, bring that girl here!"

"No cousin... We can't afford to make any mistake at this time. If we drag her here would end up leading the sect elders to do some investigations and possibly use it against us. She is in the spotlight right now; it is better for us to remain in the shadows for now." The guy that entered with the scout was apparently a confidant of the one inside.

"What should I do then? Let that bitch get away? She probably seduced that idiot or did something with him."

"No... I have an idea! We can gift her a token to the Fire Labyrinth. There are multiple ways to deal with her there. No elder nor the Huo main lineage will notice anything."

"Fine. Then do it!"

The scout was scared. They were hiding something from the top echelons of the sect. He didn't know what it was, but by the content of the conversation he noticed it was something important. A crime that is punishable by a death penalty.

The core disciple started walking leisurely, with his hands behind his back, prepared to leave the room. On his right hand a silver ring, with two spooky dog heads carved.

"Before that... Don't let anything unnecessary bother our plan." Tao Zhong, the core disciple, left the room to do another thing. Not only he was a core disciple, but he was on the top three ranks, just after Lilian and Jianhong.

The scout almost pissed his pants. "N-No, I didn't hear anything." He kept going backwards until his back hit the wall behind.

Tao Changming then approached the scout and said: "Only those who are dead can't hear anything."

His hands started burning with a powerful fire. He directly grabbed the other disciple head and intensified the power of his flames.

"NOOOOO!!! AAAAAAAHHHHhhh!"

This place was located inside the core disciple sect grounds. Each core disciple had their own house, and they were relatively far from one another. That loud scream was not heard and no one would notice a servant that went missing.

It was already evening.

Seth and Chun Meiyi took the day off to visit some places inside the inner sect grounds. Lilian had already shown Seth the important places, so he easily guided Meiyi around.

"That's the Flame Stone library, on the other side you can see the Weapon Pavilion and that majestic building over there, is the Resource Management building." Pointing ahead and giving a quick explanation he continued. "Tomorrow we will be able to receive our share of resources and get some items too."

Chun Meiyi eyes sparkled. Now that they were inner court disciples, the quantity of resources and possibilities for them would increase.

After everything was done, Seth accompanied Meiyi to the entrance of the female residential area.

"Alright, that's it for today. Better to go to our new home now."

"Hmmm? Our new home? Aren't male and female houses located on different areas?" Innocently blinking, Chun Meiyi thought she heard something wrong.

"Of course, they are. But that doesn't matter, I'll be staying at your house." Seth grinned.

"WHAT?!?!?!" She got so surprised that even her tone got louder. The guards around the entrance started looking and thinking they were quarreling or something like that.

Meiyi lowered her tone and apprehensively spoke.

"How can t-that be?! How will you get there? What if, what if you get caught and expelled?" Chun Meiyi panicked thinking about the thought of he being exposed and expelled, but she didn't even notice that not even once she denied the thought of them living together.

"Don't worry. I know the security around here is strict, but I have the means to get to your house without being discovered. We just recently started with your training and the best course would be if I could closely monitor your development. I know the houses are very roomy, so I'll sleep in another room and I promise I'll never do anything you don't want." Still grinning he gave her some reasons to not oppose the idea.

'What a hooligan!' Lexi sighed and watched the girl that was slowly falling on the claws of the worst predator possible.
